Sunshine Tag (again)

Thank you to my cute sis Aimee over at Part of Me for tagging me.

I don't really do tags (because of the tagging at the end. I can never find friends over blogger that I communicate enough with) but I do the ones my sister tags me in cause . . . you know . . . it's polite to do stuff like that for your family.

On with the tag:

1. What is your favorite bible verse?

2 Timothy 1:7
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and self-discipline.

2. Would you say you would sacrifice your life for a stranger?

Whoah little darlin' . . . calm down. That escalated quickly.

It would completely depend on the situation and person. I mean, if it was a small infant whose stoller was about to tip off the edge of a cliff and the only way to save it was to run and shove it to safety but in the act you not being able to stop yourself and falling over to your fate *huge breath*, then yes. Probably. But then again I have so many plans and things going for me in life . . . this makes me feel like such a selfish person DON'T ASK QUESTIONS LIKE THESE GOSH. *rocks back and fourth questioning existence*

3. Given the chance to swim with dolphins, would you accept?

Yes. Just yes.

4. Are you more fascinated with the light or dark? Why?

If I ponder too long about the dark it creeps me out and if I ponder too long about the light I get too warm. Neither. it is what it is, thank you Jesus for both. What more can I say?

5. Can you speak a different language?

I am currently working on sign language.

6. Do you play an instrument?

I do. Piano. 11 years and going on 12.

7. Has the ocean ever filled your dreams?

Yep. Sooo many times. If you didn't know (Get with the program if you don't. Just kidding I love you) I am obsessed with the ocean and everything in it. It always has. I want to become a marine biologist.

8. Presuming you own one, how often is your journal put to use?

I have so many journals they're flowing out from under my bed. I try to keep one but then I get bored and decide I need to start fresh. I'll go out and buy another cool one only to stop a quarter way through again. I have so many unfinished stories and entities.

9. Why on earth (pun intended) would anyone want to rule to world?

You could have a pet shark and all the french fries you wanted.

10. What is your favorite hymn?

Unfortunately I don't know very many hymns and the only ones I have heard I cannot sit through. They have a million bajillion verses and I get stressed when singing them. I do like to listen to them once in a while however, but only in church when the congregation is singing. That, my friend, is beautiful.

Okayyyy, the tag time is up. That's all we have for today, folks. Tune in again sometime later and read my upcoming post, Good Ol' Fandoms . . . the sequel.

I'm not tagging anyone. It never works out. No . . just no.

Yes, you are at the right blog.

I've changed everything.

The title is different
The background is different.
The fonts are different.
The the colors are different.

I figured it was time for some change.

To refresh kinda? I don't know.

Let me know what you think of it all, please. :)

Instead of blogging about lots of things on a doll blog, i'll be writing lots of things on a "lots of things" blog. :)

In other words, this blog is just a big ball of wibbly wobbly whatever whichever blog. ;)

The title is Brave; located at the corner of Timid and Shy. ;)

Here is the old, "It's A Doll's World" header, for old time's sake.

Love you guys, and I just want to let you know that I truly appreciate you for being here through everything. 

Thanks :)

Who Am I (as a high schooler)?

I realized not too long ago that I made this blog in junior high. Wow has it been fun! My dolls got to be superstars of my own blog and I got to connect with a lot of girls like me. :)

Since then, however, I've changed a lot. I'm still the same girl I've always been, but of course things change as you age.

I've done a couple of these since the creation of this blog, but I wanted to make a post about me that was deeper than just my favorite movies and music.

So here ya go ;)

Who am I (as a high schooler)?:

My name is Ellie (of course you know that).

I'm 16.

Yes, I still like dolls.

 I am an awkward teenager who loves Jesus more than anything in the entire space of the universe and beyond. he gives me great joy and comfort, and I willingly and without shame worship Him. BABAM.

Here are the other qualities I possess (other summary of me):

I have a passionate love for films and the way my parents punish me is by taking away my books. You really can't take those away from me, however, so I am usually a good kid. ;) Really the only thing I am punished for now days is spending too much time on the internet. That's another thing about me, I find joy through the internet. My grades are my non-religion priority right now, and they're quite good, actually. I also have an obsession with the ocean and have ever since I can remember. My plan (that I have had since I was a little kid) is to be a Marine Biologist!

I have discovered a group of people over the internet just like me. They understand, they enjoy the same things I do and I am guessing the loves of their lives are fictional characters as well. They blog, they read, and they love the internet.

I measure out my time though, don't worry. I'm healthy. :)

List of things I do on the internet (all clean, calm yoselvesssss):

Youtube (vloggers and such)
Blogging
Instagram
Tumblr
Music (I have played the piano since I was five)

Okay i'll stop now.

Thank you :)

- Saving this because I am sentimental. Excuse my horrid writing skills: 

Today I was confirmed and baptized!  I am not sure if i got the spelling on those words..... :)  I was sooo jittery!  I was also chosen to read my paper I wrote about the Christian faith.  So, I woke up at 6:30, got dressed in my special dress and did my hair, ate a peice of toast, packed all my stuff, drove to church, took pictures, sat through a service, got up on stage to introduce ourselves ( all the 8th graders), went to sunday school, sat through another service, read my paper, got baptized, said why I was a Christian and why I wanted to be baptized, and went home to have a party!!  It is all very nerve racking and hard.  God gives me peace about it though :)  Thank goodness it is all OVER!!
