Kelly started with this set of tanong that she came up with on her own. I pag-ibig answering questionnaires like that, so I decided to answer them myself.

1. What's your paborito clothing accessory? I like necklaces the best. I know sixteen of them, and I never wear the same one every day. I do have my favorites, like my asexual pride necklace, my kuwintas that's dedicated in memory of my first dog, Diesel, and my birthstone necklace.

2. How do you like your coffee? I like mine with sugar and cream, preferably hazelnut cream.

3. Do you pag-ibig nostalgia? Yes.

4. What's your paborito milkshake flavor? Strawberry.

5. If you were a dog, what breed would you be? I would be a Siberian Husky.

6. Do you have a sarcastic side? Yes.

7. What are your least paborito music genres? Techno, rap, and nu-metal.

8. What is your least paborito movie genre? Horror.

9. Cupcakes or muffins? I like both.

10. What shades of your paborito mga kulay do you like the best? For green, I like forest green, spring green, and sea foam the best. For blue, I like ocean blue and sky blue the best. For orange, I like tiger kahel the best. Finally, for purple, I like purple kulay-lila the best.

11. What's your paborito fruit? My paborito prutas is avocado. Apparently, it's actually a fruit. It doesn't taste like a fruit, but I like it.

12. If you had a boat, what would you name it? I think I'd name mine SS Friendship.

13. If you could turn the ocean into a liquid other than water, which one would you pick? Dr. Pepper!

14. What do you value most in life? Friendship, love, honesty, and equality.

15. What's your paborito holiday? My paborito holiday is Thanksgiving. You get to spend time with loved ones without having to worry about buying gifts, and I like food.

16. Would you rather know the history of every object you touched or be able to talk to animals? While the former sounds cool, I prefer the latter. I would pag-ibig to be able to have conversations with River and Roscoe. They already "talk" to me, Roscoe madami than River, but I'd pag-ibig to be able to understand what they're saying.

17. Do you prefer ice cream cones or snow cones? Ice cream all the way!

18. What is your paborito mythological animal? I like dragons the best.

19. In your opinion, which singer/band has the worst fanbase? Currently, I'd have to say BTS. Don't get me wrong, they are talented, but people keep comparing them to the Beatles. They're not the Beatles.

20. If the Beatles invited you to spend a araw with them, would you accept it? Yeah, yeah, yeah!

There you have it. I hope you enjoyed my list. If you didn't, please be respectful. If you can't do that, get outta here!

Peace and love,
-Antonia

The seventh grade had good and bad points. In the beginning of the year, Glenn, Joann, and I were heading to our first class. Suddenly, a boy our age ran into Glenn, and both of them fell to the floor. "Bloody hell!" Glenn exclaimed. "Slow down!" The other boy said, "Oh, I'm so sorry about that." He sounded as if he was out of breath. Glenn suddenly became concerned and asked, "Are you all right?" The other boy said, "I'm trying to get away from them." A group of bullies started coming in our direction. Glenn got up. He asked, "What are we going to do, Autumn?" I said, "I don't know." Joann...

During the summer, we got a new neighbor. He was a horrible man. He was a gun-slinging, bible-thumping individual if I've ever seen one. He once threatened to kill Glenn because of his haircut. I told him, "If you kill Glenn, you better make plans for me to kill you!" He never threatened to kill Glenn after that. I wish I could say that was the worst thing he did. One day, Glenn was visiting with me. I went outside for something, and the nasty neighbor took his shotgun and shot me in the upper thigh. I fell to the ground, and I was in a lot of pain. My aunt and uncle rushed out. My uncle took...

It was January, and the school taon picked back up. Glenn was still on crutches, but he was doing better. At one point, we saw some bullies picking on the new kid. Glenn said, "Come on. Let's get those bullies away from her." I said, "Good idea! I can't just stand and watch someone get bullied." The poor girl was already in the floor. The bullies were ready to beat her. Glenn sinabi to the bullies, "Back off! I've got crutches, and I'm not afraid to use them!" The bullies backed away. I helped the girl to her feet. "Are you okay?" I asked. She said, "Yeah. Thanks for standing up for me." I said,...

A few months passed, and Glenn and I were becoming ever closer. One day, we got into an argument. I don't remember why we were arguing. I do remember that I went tahanan crying. Later, when I had calmed down, I decided to go over to Glenn's tahanan to make up with him. I rang the doorbell, and his mother answered. I said, "I need to talk to Glenn. I want to make up with him." She said, "I'll tell him you're here." A few moments later, she came back and said, "He's gone." I was in shock. "Gone?!" I cried. "What do you mean gone?" She said, "He's not here. He must've run away." I said, "I'll help you...

Some time passed, and Glenn and I were becoming close friends. One day, we had a bad araw at school. The araw started out fine, but it ended badly. During the last class of the day, one of my classmates started insulting me. Glenn sinabi to her, "You're lucky that boys can't hit girls. If they could, you'd be the first one I'd hit." She said, "But girls can hit boys." He said, "Go ahead. Hit me." She punched him in the mouth. I saw a tooth fly across the room. Glenn put his finger where the tooth was supposed to be. He saw some blood and fainted. I was really scared. Up until then, I had never...

It was September 25, 2011. It was a Sunday afternoon. I was outside, soaking up crisp air. Just then, I noticed some people were moving into the house across the street. We were getting new neighbors. I noticed there was a kid about my age at the house. I decided to go over and introduce myself. I calmly walked over to him. I said, "Hi, there. I'm Autumn. It's nice to meet you." He said, "Hi. I'm Glenn. It's nice to meet you, too." I noticed he had an English accent. I said, "Great accent!" He said, "Thank you. I'm from Liverpool, England." I said, "Like the Beatles?!" He said, "Yeah, like...

After weeks of getting bullied, I was beginning to lose hope. I really needed a way to cope with my sadness. I looked at my Siberian Husky, Diesel, and said, "I wish you could talk. You could tell me what to do." He could make noises that sounded like he was talking, but he couldn't talk like a person. One day, I saw a pocket knife, and I don't know what I was thinking, but I made some cuts on my leg. It really hurt, but the pain gave me something to focus on other than how lonely I was. It made me forget about all the bullying....for a brief period. I kept doing it. I later heard a song by...

When I started the sixth grade, things seemed to be going smoothly. At lunch time, a group of kids invited me to sit with them. I thought, I'm going to have new friends. Yay! I told them about growing up in Illinois. They didn't make fun of my accent. They explained that the Midwestern accent is the accent that doesn't offend anyone. That's why most newscasters are Midwestern. I said, "Okay. Cool." One of them asked, "What kind of music do you listen to?" I told them, and I named a few bands that I liked. Another one of them said, "It's not 1980. Those bands shouldn't be a thing anymore." I...

When I started the fifth grade, I was dreading it. I heard that the fifth grade teacher was really mean. I thought, Is it possible that she could be worse than my fourth grade teacher? I told my aunt about my fears. She said, "Autumn, don't worry, dear. Maybe she's nice. Just give her a chance, okay?" I said, "Okay." On the first araw of school, the teacher noticed my Beatles t-shirt. She said, "Darling, I pag-ibig you already!" I said, "Okay, then." I had recently gotten glasses, because I had trouble seeing without them, especially from a distance. Some of the kids called me "glasses". She said,...

I thought that fourth grade would be good. I thought that when I switched school districts, I would have mga kaibigan for once. Boy, was I wrong! Fourth grade was one of the worst school years for me. My teacher was the meanest, most hateful human being on the planet. She never hurt me physically, but she was very verbally abusive. One day, during a math lesson, I got a tanong wrong. She took her ruler, pointed it at me, and said, "Class, at the end of this ruler is an idiot." I felt hurt, but I didn't lose it. "Which end?" I sneered. She said, "You damn bitch! ipakita some respect when you talk...

All too soon, I started school. I was actually pretty eager to start. I thought I would make some friends. Instead, I was bullied. When I was five years old, my aunt noticed that I was lonely. She decided to get a tuta to keep me company. She found a local breeder selling Siberian Husky puppies. She took me there to meet the puppies. They were all so cute. I couldn't choose one. I never did, because ONE tuta chose me. He had rust red and white balahibo and piercing blue eyes. The breeder said, "I think he likes you." We took him home, and I named him Diesel, after one of the Aso from the movie,...

I am proud to say that I have a few good friends. They have been so good to me. They see past my scars. Unfortunately, my life wasn't always this good. This is my story. I was born in 1999. When my mother was pregnant with me, she learned that she had cancer. She refused treatment and chose to have me instead. She wanted me to have an opportunity to see the world, to grow and to learn and make friends. When I was born, I turned out to be exceptionally healthy. I was told my mother's last words to my father were "Promise me you'll take care of our little girl." He smiled and said, "I promise."...

Ten Fun Facts About Peaceandlove67

posted by Peaceandlove67

Before I begin, I'd like to thank 80smusiclover1 for the inspiration.

1. I am generally optimistic, but I wasn't always like that. I had a little help from my friends, especially RocknRollSoul60.

2. When I'm feeling really happy, I tend to start sentences with "dude" and end them with "man." For example, "Dude, I just got a discount on that Beatles CD, man."

3. My least paborito color is pink. I don't dislike pink, but I'm not crazy about it. You'll never see me wearing a kulay-rosas t-shirt.

4. I rarely wear long sleeves. Sometimes I'll wear a sweater over one. I typically wear a leather dyaket in the...

Despite the fact that Louise was kicked out the the hate group, she still had the attitude of one. My parents had to go out of town for a weekend. At one point, Louise began beating me. She then left the house. I packed up some things and went to Gavin's house. Gavin answered the door. I said, "Gavin, I just came to say goodbye." He looked at me curiously and asked, "Where are you going?" I said, "I'm running away." He became wide-eyed. He said, "Please don't run away! That will only end in disaster. You might get hurt or worse!" I said, "It doesn't matter." He said, "Quinn, it does matter....

As the months passed, the hate group began to hate Louise, and she was kicked out. I found it rather amusing. I said, "It's pretty embarrassing when a hate group you like hates you." She became pale with embarrassment. "What's wrong, Louise?" I sinabi without much sympathy. "You're looking quite pale." She glared at me. "Yeah," Gavin said, "your face is starting to match the cliffs of Dover." I fell on the ground laughing. Louise said, "You suck, Gavin!" He said, "Hey, I'm not the one who beats the hell out of my sibling. Do you think you're trying to make her holy or something?" I continued...

I thanked Gavin and his family for their kindness and went on my way. Gavin insisted on walking with me, so I said, "Okay. It won't be so lonely that way." Along the way, we ran into my parents. My mother said, "Quinn, we've been looking everywhere for you. Where have you been?" I explained everything. My father thanked Gavin for helping me out.

As I was making my way back home, I didn't notice that my shoelaces were untied. I didn't care either. I tripped and fell. Just then, someone helped me up and asked, "Are you all right?" I said, "Yeah. Why do you care?" He said, "I was just making sure you weren't hurt. That's all." I said, "Sure. You'll act like you care, and then, you'll go waltzing to Louise just like everybody else!" He said, "I'm sorry. Who's Louise?" I looked at him, and said, "Oh, I'm so sorry.

One night, my grandmother came to me in a dream. She said, "It seems that things aren't going so well here." I said, "No, they're not. Louise is teaching Sunday school for a hate group." My grandmother said, "Louise is awful young to be a Sunday school teacher. She's hardly a woman yet. She's only sixteen." I told my grandmother everything Louise had sinabi to me. My grandmother said, "Those are horrible things to say, especially to a child. You haven't even turned twelve yet." I said, "I know." The susunod morning, I reluctantly went to school as usual.

I woke up in the middle of the night, frightened out of my wits. I was relieved to see the light from my night light. I took some deep breaths and sinabi to myself, "It's all right, Quinn. You just had a nightmare." I stared at the ceiling, reflecting on the events of the past couple of weeks. After my grandparents passed away, I had moved to a different state with my family. Mother wanted to keep the tradition of going to church, since my grandfather was a pastor. Unfortunately, we unwittingly ended up with a hate group, similar to that of Westboro Baptist Church. My older sister, Louise, loved...
