11 Random Questions

      So it has been a while now but here are my answers to the questions on Grace's blog.

  1. Pancakes or waffles?
    I really enjoy both of these foods, but if I had to choose I would go with pancakes. Pancakes with butter and syrup are very good. So are chocolate chip pancakes with whipped cream.
  2. What do you do when you get angry or frustrated?
    It depends on the situation. If I'm mad at other people, sometimes I yell at them. This happens a lot when I play sports with my friends. If I'm mad at myself or some situation, I grunt, sigh, pull my hair, or get up and do push ups or something similar to calm down.
  3. What is your favorite book?
    This is a tough one, but I think I would say "Mere Christianity" by C.S. Lewis. I really like theological and logical topics (hence my blog) and the book is full of them. That book changed the way I think about things.
  4. (Can you tell) a funny story?
    I can see that Grace must have been running out of questions because this is definitely a cop out question. Anyway, in my freshman year of high school I'm walking around to all my various classrooms. I go to my English classroom to find it full with people already. I wasn't late or anything, so I was a bit confused. I was even more confused later when the teacher asked me if this was the class I was looking for. I said yes, but he continued to question me, knowing that I was a nervous freshman. The who class was laughing at this point, to which I was really embarrassed. I hoped that the whole year would not be like this, and I wished that I could switch teachers. Well as it turns out, somehow my schedule changed and I did get a different teacher at the beginning of the year. This was a huge relief to me.
          Come senior year, I'm much more confident and used to high school. I go to all my classes the first day, and I find out that my English teacher is the same one I almost had freshman year. However, I mostly forgot about the incident, until later in the year when it somehow came up in one of our class discussions. I told the class the story above, and the teacher claimed to have no memory of the incident. I insisted that it was okay and I was just a freshman and I now know he was joking, but he apologized to me regardless. We actually had a very good relationship my senior year and his class was actually part of why I started this blog. I respect him a lot and I love his sense of humor because it is similar to mine.
  5. What's your favorite candy or chocolate?
    I actually don't like either candy or chocolate that much, and I only eat it around Halloween. I think my favorite is probably Twix, especially the ice cream. I enjoy the cookie and caramel in a Twix bar, and I don't think I like any candy more than Twix.
  6. Do you prefer long or short hair? Why?
    I prefer short hair because I am a guy.
  7. What's your favorite hobby?
    This is a very tough question for me because I change hobbies a lot (as I discussed in my 11 random facts). I don't know if I like sports or music more, but those are definitely my two favorite hobbies.
  8. What is your favorite thing to do when you hang out with friends?
    My favorite thing to do with friends is play sports (which I guess might not be "hanging out"). Other than that I would say I like eating with my friends. Eating brings people together and is a great way to enjoy yourself and relax. 
  9. If you didn't have to worry about money, what would you do with your life?
    I would probably travel to a lot of different places. I like going to new places and seeing how people outside of my area live. I would probably also donate a lot of money to churches and places like Red Cross.
  10. What is one thing not many people know about you?
    I thought this was the point of the 11 random facts questions... Well I guess one thing not many people know about me is that I have a birthmark on my wrist.
  11. What was your favorite class that you took?
    This is like choosing which vegetable I like the most; it's just choosing the one that's not as bad as the others. I would say my favorite class was definitely band. I never wanted to do band, but my friend convinced me to do it in middle school, so I played. Band has always been my favorite class since then, because it is such a breather from all the other classes I had to take. I also enjoyed my high school physics classes, but not because of the material. My teacher was a phenomenal person and a freak of nature who was a crazy good teacher. Physics is not easy to teach, especially to high school students, but she did it so well. Now that I am taking another physics class in college I can appreciate how well she taught me.
This went on a longer than I expected it to, but I appreciate you reading up to this point. I hope you learned more about me through this Liebster. Also, I'm not going to post any questions because everyone subscribed to me has already done this thing and I am getting sick of the number 11.
