She Dragged Me Into Something Again...

My room is a mess.  The floor in between my twin bed and my younger sister "Bonjackmo's" (an old nickname, don't ask) is scattered with little Playmobil people, the usual clothes and pillows(part of the "relaxed atmosphere"), a plastic, open-up Pooh Bear house, an ancient, barrel-sized video camera, camera gear, and a few very edited pages of a script to The Fellowship of the Ring that my sister got online.  Some of the Playmobil men are wearing the ladies' hair,  including one scruffy-looking pirate man sporting a long French braid, and the one girl who still has her own hair is wearing an old ring of mine that has a heart and a diamond on it on her head.  None of this madness is my fault, believe me (except for a few of the clothes and maybe one pillow.)  

Bonjackmo, who always happens to come up with ideas for ways to express her inner performer, usually concerts and short movies, decided to drag me into her latest production; a Playmobil version of the Fellowship of the Ring.  My part was relatively simple at first, I was supposed to man the camera, but then it morphed into quite a monstrous burden, I had to film, provide voices for Frodo, Sam, Merry ,Pippin, Lobelia, and everyone else except for Gandalf and Bilbo, move the people around (very difficult while trying to film), and control the music.  So it had pretty much turned into a one-man show, only my every move was dictated by a cruel mistress.  Fortunately, we had only gotten as far as Bilbo's party when she announced her boredom as well as her annoyance at my incompetence, so I left to continue chiseling away at the mountain of schoolwork I still have left.

Seven things I love doing

Reading, Writing, inner tubing, blogging, hiking, driving the ATV, thinking.

Six things I don't like doing

Vacuuming, schoolwork that I've nearly forgot about for two weeks, babysitting my crazy little cousins, algebra, genetics, and chemistry stuff.

Five of my favorite books

LotR, the Bible, Out of the Silent Planet, That Hideous Strength, and Mere Christianity

Four things that scare me

Stewed tomatos, mountain lions, rattlesnakes, and Elijah Wood.

Three actors/actresses

I don't know, I guess Johnny Depp is really good, only he's a little scary too.  Billy Boyd is pretty good too, and, well, idk.   

Two movies I like

I’ve got to pick just two?  LotR, because it's so darn good, and the old Star Wars movies, because they're fun to watch and critisize, even if you like them.   

One thing that is special to you

Hmm, I could say something very typical, like my Bible, or my friends, since I love them both so, but I'll say my insect collection.  It represents a lot of hard work, I have some really cool bugs in it, and it was fun to make!

Eight people I'm tagging:

Whoever wants to do it.
