A Revived Tag (Sorta)


So once again, I was looking through old blogs, and I found a story tag. Suddenly, I remembered these being on HSB in fair abundance, and I figured it was time to start one again.
Here’s how it works. One person does a paragraph then tags another (one) person. Revision here, since HomeschoolBlogger has been quite inactive, if  the person tagged doesn’t acknowledge that they’ve been tagged in say, a month, tag someone else. ‘Kay, here goes!
On movie nights, Jane took refuge in her room, her favorite place to be at any time. Although there was only one window, the sill was very deep, making it one of the best places to sit and read, especially since there were bookshelves everywhere possible in the room. Bookshelves were leaning against every wall, and there were a couple of them on one side of the bed, one facing away from the bed, and one facing towards it. On the other side of the bed was a largish closet, the door facing the bed. On the opposite side of the window, the other side of the room, there was a door leading to the hallway, while on the opposite side of the bottom of the bed was a door leading to a very small room, which was the place in between Jane’s room and her twin brother’s room. Jane’s closet on the side of the bed facing the door to the hallway didn’t make it all the way to the wall, so the somewhat small space between the two walls was what Jane called her “pillow place”.
Make sure to put an enter between different peoples’ additions, please. :) I tag Fairley (@gamegirl)!!

It used to be that I’d say books in a heartbeat, but now I think it really depends on how much time is on my hands. I’m a bit of a slow reader.

14. Raw meat, in case I couldn’t catch any animals on the island.
And
15. Something to play music, maybe. I think I just might go insane without music.

I don’t really have a favorite. I just put on clothes randomly.

Definitely married, although not at this age.

Quite honestly, red. Love a ging.

Like, the same movie? I’ve never seen a movie more than once in a theater, although certainly on DVD.
19. Would you rather watch TV for a year, not do school for a year, or go on vacation of your choice for a year?
I’m pretty sure that all of these cancel out school, but even if it doesn’t, go on a vacation, ’cause I nearly never get that chance.
20. What’s your favorite color?
Either a very bright, lovely yellow or the most recent TARDIS blue.

Yes! Kamp Koinonia! It’s not necessarily beautiful in the way it looks, but it’s beautiful to be a part of it.
27. Have you ever been yelled at repeatedly?
Again, not to my recollections.
28. Do you dislike your relatives?
Nope, although there are a few that just really aren’t my favorites.
