The Purple Alien

5. Cement and Loud Machines

Hi everyone!!!  I say everyone but I really know I'm probably talking to myself.  But that's okay because that means I'm having fun and you aren't.  (Which is probably not true)

Here are more questions.  You know what I'm going to ask you to do so why don't you save everyone the trouble and get to work.  Answer the questions below in your awesome comments!  Vote if you feel like it!  And let me know of your stories so I can give everyone a shout-out!  If you don't get comments on your stories I'll totally comment! (This is my way of bribing you)

Shout-Out of the Chapter!   WinterChill.  Another sister of mine.  To be honest I don't know what she writes really.  I've read a short story of hers and it was really good.  It was kind of a mystery but I don't know if she's put that up.  I do know she has like a romance story or something that she just put up.  Go check her stuff out!!!!!    :)

1.  What type of music do you like the most?  Dislike the most?  Are you listening to music now?  What is it?

I love country music.  Three presets in my car are country stations and the other three are random things.  But while my favorite is country I also love pop (I guess that’s what it is) and…lots of different kinds.  I guess all that's popular right now.  I like old music too though.  The Beatles, Elvis...I can listen to a lot of different stuff.  The stuff I’m not into is rap and heavy metal screaming stuff. 

I am not listening to music but if I were it be something like Leave the Pieces by The Wreckers (country) or Firework by Katy Perry. The list goes on but those are the ones I can think of right now.

2. What was the last movie, TV show or book that made you cry or tear up?

I don’t watch TV much and I haven’t really watched a sad movie lately but just the other day I started crying because of a book!  This wasn’t just a little bit of tearing up…I was crying my eyes out and felt depressed the whole day.  Pathetic…I know.

The book was The Guardian by Nicholas Sparks.  I honestly didn’t realize that the book was a thriller until strange things started to happen half way through and let me tell you…I do not like thrillers.  Nicholas Sparks is an amazing author and I was totally sucked into that story.  The part that made me cry was in the end when someone that was really close to the main character died.  I’m not going to say anything because I don’t want to give it away if you want to read it. 

I think I started crying because it felt real to me.  I’ve never been through something as scary as what Julie was going through but I’ve been watched as something close to me has died…it hit close to home…I cried.

3. What is a strange routine you have?

Okay, maybe this isn’t a strange routine, but it’s a routine nonetheless.  It’s my shower routine.  Lol.  When I get into the shower I first wash my hair, then my face, then the rest of my body from my shoulders down to the bottoms of my feet.  I do it this way because I feel like if I washed my feet first and then washed my hair last the dirt from my hair would get on my clean feet.  I have to wash from the top of my head and then down to the bottom of my feet so the dirt can come off my body…does this make sense.  So it’s not strange but I have a reason for the routine.  I think a lot of people have a shower routine.  Try messing it up for a day…it’s not very easy.

4. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?

Wow, what a day to ask this question.  My dad just had a cement patio poured in the side yard and the guy came just a little while ago to finish it up.  He’s using some sort of loud…LOUD…machine.  I think he’s blowing the powdery color away.  (They used this chalk stuff so the cement is a color instead of just grey)  It’s so loud that I can’t even hear my computer!  Every so often some powdery mauve color floats down the stairwell and I can see it out my window.  Oh! I think he's using water too.  My window just got wet.  Now it's going to be colorful!  Good thing I closed it.

5. What time is bedtime?

Bedtime is a hard time for me.  I’m a night owl all the way!  When school is in bedtime is around ten (unless I’ve procrastinated an assignment, then bedtime doesn’t exist)  It’s summer right now and bedtime is like…dare I say…two or three in the morning!  But I just got a new job and I’ll have to get up early…so bedtime will be earlier too...at least I hope.

For a second there it got really quiet!  Now it sounds like the cement guy is using a lawn edger!  I could actually hear my computer humming for a second.  Lol.

Quote of the Page!

"The bed is a bundle of paradoxes: we go to it with reluctance, yet we quit it with regret; we make up our minds every night to leave it early, but we make up our bodies every morning to keep it late."  (Charles Caleb Colton)
