Not again... triple whammy

Yes, I've been tagged thrice. I can't escape.

# 1. An award and tag from crochetcrazy and luckyme. Thanks girls! (Though about the tag now, I can't believe anyone really wants to know that much about me, so I'll just not do it. What?? That's against the common rules of decent HSBers? Oh. And I really thought I could get out of this.)

Here is the tag portion...

1. Where is your cellphone? In the future

2. Where is your significant other? Other cellphone??

3. Your hair color? Well, it's sort of a darkish blond that looks light in the sunlight... well, maybe strawberry blond without the strawberry... and sometimes it glitters, and then it's gold, but it depends, because in some lights-... Maybe I should give this up.

4. Your mother? Is a way better mom than she gives herself credit for.

5. Your father? Makes widgets. Well, that's actually a very small part of his life, but it's the first thing that came to mind. You should check out his Haiku widget. And submit your own Haiku!

6. Your favorite thing? Living

7. Your dream last night? Now, I had some very interesting dreams last night, but I can't remember a thing beyond that. Come to think of it, this is probably a trick question. You surely don't want to know.

8. Your dream/goal? My short term goal: To make the Texas All-State Choir again this year

9. The room you are in? Kitchen

10. Your hobby? Music

11. Your fear? Shall I then tell you and reveal my deepest secrets, besides putting myself completely in your power? Just kidding, I fear not being able to keep a promise.

12. Where do you want to be in 6 years? *counts on fingers* Let's see, I'll be 21. I want to be wherever God puts me.

13. Where were you last night? Home

14. What you are not? satisfactory. *sigh*

15. One of your wish-list items? A pitch pipe. Google it if you like.

16. Where you grew up? In Texas

17. The last thing you did? I decided to use Renee's previous answer. But ended up not using it.

18. What are you wearing? My choir polo and jeans

19. Your TV? Exists.

20. Your pet? 1 fuzzy dog

21. Your computer? Exists.

22. Your mood? Picture her sitting there at the computer, smiling dreamily... there is a regal look on her face. Perhaps she remembers, recollects a time forgotten... But we will never know, for the way into her soul is blocked; her eyes are veiled. (haha, well you asked.)

23. Missing someone? Maybe that's what I was pondering. But my eyes are veiled, remember?

24. Your car? Where it should be. But it's not mine.

25. Something you are not wearing? a feather boa

26. Favorite store? Music stores!

27. Your summer? I think it was great. I can't remember. *cheesy grin*

28. Love someone? Many

29. Your favorite color? Blue

30. When is the last time you laughed? Reading Paul's post on the election

31. Last time you cried? Last night when I was reading... I cry very easily over books. I take that back, I just cry easily. :'-(

# 2. Justyne/Cyrilla/AuthorElf is the second guilty party. ;-)

1. If you were to describe yourself as a color, what would it be?: White

2. What is your favorite animal?: I don't really have one. Sorry.

3. What is your favorite musical instrument?: Piano, and voice. But voice might not qualify.

4. Do you have a favorite number?: No, actually I don't.

5. Roller coasters or boat rides?: Roller coasters.

6. If you were an animal, what would you be?: *quizzical look* You fill in the blank.

7. What coin best describes you?: A quarter, according to my sister.

8. Do you like tags?: It depends on the tag.

Do you wish this tag would end?: It doesn't matter what I wish, since it keeps going.

10. Morning or evening?: Mornings

11. Mugs or just plain cups?: I've never thought about that one. I'll go with goblets.

12. Describe yourself as a... living, breathing, female human being. With blond hair, green eyes, and height of 5' 3''.

13. Fiction or non-fiction?: Fiction affords immediate pleasure. Non-fiction often requires extra thought. So it depends on the day.

14. Do you wish you were somewhere else?: Once again it makes no difference what I wish. I am pretty content here at present. But I would like to play lazer-tag, or tour Europe, or go skiing. Or burst in on some friends while they're peacefully doing school, wearing a long red and white dress, and carrying a sword, and announcing that they've been summoned to the world of... um... Inofritocies to assist the true king in taking back his throne. Well, you asked.

15. Do you like candy or do you not like candy?: And why exactly would a person NOT like candy!!

I tag: Anyone who likes to touch ferns so that they roll up tightly.

#3. (This is taking a while. If anyone wonders, I've written this post in day-by-day segments.)

Tag from nachoaveragegirl. I must write 4 things that y'all probably DON'T know about me, and 4 things that you probably DO.

Enlightening facts about me:

1. When I listen to music I can't seem to help conducting it. I must swell with it, move with it, be part of it. And it helps to close my eyes, and bring in each of the instruments at their proper time. There is no such thing as 'background music' to me.

2. In movies, I notice the film music score nearly as much as anything else.

3. When I'm reading piano music, I have a harder time playing in sharps than in flats.

4. I have a pretty hard time trying to play jazz. The other day I was trying to play Linus and Lucy by Vince Guaraldi, and the syncopated rythms are so hard! I will keep working at it though, since it bothers me to not be able to play something.

Stuff you don't need me to tell you:

1. Music is one of the most defining factors in my life.

2. I am very determined.

3. And passionate.

4. And artistically-minded.

I tag: Anyone who takes snow for granted. *sigh* This is hard work, thinking up interesting groups of people to tag every time. I've already used up a lot of good ones since I started blogging.

Grace is a 17 year old girl who is striving to follow God's leading, but would be constantly embracing failure if God didn't just sweep her off her feet, sometimes against her will. Music is her first love and expertise: specifically voice, but also piano. She has been trained classically, which is a good thing, most of the time, except when she wants to sing pop style... and can't. Her favorite genres of music are Celtic, Scottish and Irish folk songs/jigs, film music, and broadway show tunes. Grace also takes pleasure in the beautiful diversions of writing poetry, Ultimate Frisbee, sketching, dancing in the rain, Irish Step Dancing, speech and debate tournaments, scrapbooking, acting, reading, photography, standing outside at night while the wind whips the trees every which way, and talking about herself in the third person.
