    6. Depends on the mood ^^

    7. I dream about my marriage with my boyfriend, and the moment we'll start our life together as a family. Soul-mates are rare to find, and i was lucky to find mine*

  7. praying, praying, praying! you will do amazing things, i just know god will use you greatly! be safe, love, and have incredible adventures. <3

    1. What do you love about yourself?
    my creative, free spirit

    2. What's your favorite quote?
    too many! i keep a journal of quotes that i love.
    here's one off the top of my head:
    "there is always something ending and something beginning. yet in the very center is the truth of your spiritual identity: is you... fabulous, hilarious, darling, screwed-up you. beloved of God and of your truest deepest self, the self that is revealed when tears wash off the make-up and grime" - anne lamott

    3. Favorite blogger (include URL, pretty please)?
    that's like picking a favourite quote. ;) the rockstar diaries is pretty high up on the list, though...
    taza-and-husband.blogspot.com

    4. What's one thing that has shaped you into the person you are today (a person, experience, etc)?
    honestly, being on television as a child. spending so much of my growing up years in a television studio, i learned SO much. i saw both the bad and good sides of people- and the industry- and even through the bad times, it made me realize how much i wanted it as a career! being in that environment can either make or break your faith - and i love that challenge of clinging even closer to Christ and becoming stronger in Him. especially in an industry that can be so dark.

    5. What would you do, if you knew you couldn't fail?
    the possibilities are endless! i would probably pack up, move to new york, bring my best friend with me, and audition for a role on broadway. i would also start my own non-profit organization.

    and if i REALLY could not fail... i would have walked up to joseph gordon-levitt in hollywood the other night and asked him to marry me. HAHAHA! just kidding... ;)

    6. Skittles or M&Ms?
    m&ms, preferably the peanut butter ones!

    7. Tell me something, anything for number seven.
    at the moment, i'm sitting here in a green sundress, listening to vinyl records and sipping iced coffee. in no way is that an exciting pieces of news, but i'm content nonetheless. ;)

  8. Abby-- Ditto on number four and seven.

    Lindsey-- Love the quote & OMG, it's so HOT here as well! Luckily it's winter in Chile!

    Danica-- I will, dear!

    Fleur-de-Lis-- I've always dreamed about doing ballet. Unfortunately I have zero balance.

    Tara-- LOVE the quotes & let's do travel the world together. Ah, I'm still so jealous you got to go to Egypt!

    Kelly Ann-- You inspire me so much, girl. You are a beautiful soul. & what did you star in as a child?! So cool!

    ALL OF YOU: You inspire me so much. I love you guys. & I'll be sure to check out all the links when I return home. xoxo

  15. Have funnn (& be safe)! I hope the giveaway is something Chilean. And also, that I am its winner.


    1. I love my sense of humor, spoken & written, even if I tend to lose it in stressful situations, like, ummm, the last two months. It'll be back.

    2. I always have trouble choosing a favorite quote! I think mine is a passage from "Shopgirl" by Steve Martin: "She moved from Vermont hoping to begin her life, & now she is stranded in the vast openness of L.A. She keeps working to make connections, but the pile of near misses is starting to overwhelm her. What Mirabelle needs is some omniscient voice to illuminate & spotlight her, & to inform everyone that this one has value, this one over here..."

    3. Fave bloggers are Kyla (www.kylaroma.com), Amy (www.justatitch.com), and Kerri (www.yourwishcake.com).

    4. My ex-boyfriend killed himself when I was 20. Nothing has changed my life like that has.

    5. If I knew I couldn't fail, I'd write a book.

    6. Skittles or M&Ms?

    7. I sort of just started dating someone. And I'm so happy. And when you're back in 12 days, I'll be visiting him in Boston!

  21. Have such a fun trip! I can't wait to see your photos!

    1. My adolescent-boy sense of humor.

    1. What do you love about yourself?

    There are so many things I love about myself it would take a century just to list them all :)

    2. What's your favorite quote?

    I will persist until I succeed.

  26. 1. What do you love about yourself?
    My eyes. It doesn't matter who you are, everyone has beautiful eyes. And for some reason I love my nose. I use to hate the stereo-typical Jewish nose, but I've grown to love it. It's what makes me unique.

    2. What's your favorite quote?
    “To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.” ~ C.S. Lewis

    3. Favorite blogger?
    Jenny at http://sushi-cat.net. She's the one blogger that's really inspired me style-wise. It's made me branch out and even find out things about my personality.

    4. What's one thing that has shaped you into the person you are today?
    The Wilds summer camp. I've learned so many lessons over the past 10 summers there - about life and God. I wouldn't trade those memories for anything. Not even a king's palace.

    5. What would you do, if you knew you couldn't fail?
    Inspire people. Leave beauty in every soul I met. Or become our generation's C.S. Lewis.

    6. Skittles or M&Ms?
    :D It depends on the day. Today I'm feeling more like Skittles.

    7. Tell me something, anything for number seven.
    While I am a realist, at heart I am a romantic. I prefer rainy days to sunny, hot tea to coffee, books to movies, and cuddling to being alone. While I don't wish for a prince, I wish for a bookish gentleman to sweep me off my feet and carry me across the world. (Silly, no?)

    3. Jenny of http://sushi-cat.net. Her style taught that to be stylish, you have to stick to your style... iow, what you love and feel comfortable in.

    4. The past 10 summers at the Wilds summer camp. I've learned so much about my God.

    6. Both, it's just depends on the day. Today I feel like skittles.

    7. Even though I'm a realist, I'm secretly a romantic. I wish for a bookish gentleman to sweep me off my feet and carry me across the world. Oh... and the first guy to set up a picnic and black and white vintage horror movies in a graveyard will be the guy I marry. :D

    ReplyDelete
  28. Oh! I forgot the one thing I'd do if I couldn't fail:

    Become our generation's C.S. Lewis.
