#15: If I Were An Animal

#15: If you were an animal, what would you be and why?

I really, truly despise this question. Mainly because I think it's stupid. Like why would I want to be an animal? Am I allowed to say 'human' or is that Christian-ly incorrect because we don't believe that humans are animals? I've thought about this question a bit in the last few days, trying to think of any animal that I would feel comfortable putting down here, but I just couldn't. So I'll share a story little totally-related blurb...

One of my co-workers at Smitty's asked this question to our boss once. His response was this (and I'm not lying): "I'd be a cow in India. 'Cause I'd be the safest son of a censored in town." A little bit racist (or religion-ist?), but still a little funny. You have to chuckle just a bit.

And that's that.

What's New

Life has changed, once again. I feel like this happened a lot. I don't really mind it all that much, change is good. I finally get to attend my home church regularly again, which hasn't happened in about two years. I'm getting baptized actually. Finally, right?

I'm once again living in my parent's basement. (Although, it's only temporary. I'm moving to Winnipeg in less than three months time.) I got a job. I work at a place called Lilac Resort. It's like a waterpark/campground type thing. Anyway, I work in the concession stand. I take people's orders and make milkshakes and stuff like that. It's actually quite different than what I'm used to in a job. I'm still trying to get the hang of it and honestly, I don't think I'm doing a very good job at it. But thankfully, it's only a job for the summer.

I haven't been doing much in my spare time lately. Yesterday I went to Winnipeg to go shopping and see a movie. I'm not like other girls. When I go shopping, I don't come home with clothes most of the time. I come home with books, and sometimes movies. My favourite store to shop at is Chapters, so that tells you a little bit more about me. The movie I saw was Mud. It wasn't a great movie. It was good, but it's not anything that I would tell my friends and family about. But I now have enough Scene points for a free movie, so that's awesome.

Here's some movies I'm looking forward to seeing this year: The Great Gatsby (no, I haven't seen it yet. I wanted to read the book first, that's just who I am.), Man of Steel, Monster University, Despicable Me 2, Catching Fire (if I ever get another to actually reading the books and seeing the first movie), and, of course, The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug! Honestly, the one I'm probably looking forward to the most is the second part of the Hobbit. It's just who I am. I love Tolkien. And Peter Jackson. They are both brilliant.

I'm in the process of reading the Fellowship of the Ring again. (I wanted to re-read the series.) I also just started the Great Gatsby today. I bought it yesterday when I went to the city. It's pretty good so far. I'm not a huge fan of what they call "classics", but everyone apparently needs to read them in their lifetime. So I am. (I'm a fantasy fiction and thriller mystery kind of girl.)

This was a really useless and meaningless post, kind of. But I just felt like I needed to write something today. Probably out of boredom.
