Thinking About... The Emoji Book Tag

Hey everyone! I was nominated for the Emoji Book Tag by Sydney over at The Elliot Countenance. Thank you so much Sydney for nominating me! I am so excited to participate in this tag!

Rules:

-Link to the tag’s creators, and thank the person who tagged you.

-Choose your top five favorite or recently used emojis, explaining in what situations you use them. Then associate each one with a book or character.

-Tag whoever you want!

Here we go...


#1 Grinning Emoji

I use this emoji often, just because it is so happy! I use it when I agree, or am excited, etc...

For this emoji I chose the book, The Giver. It is one of my favorite books (I think I've told you all that before :) lol) and it makes me happy whenever I read it.




2. Firework Emoji



The Firework is my go-to "yay!" emoji. I use it when I am excited to see someone soon, or just excited in general!
This emoji reminds me of D'Artagnan from the Three Musketeers. He is always a surprise and you are never sure what he is going to do next, or quite how you feel about him :).



#3 Smiling Emoji

This emoji is great when you are finishing a conversation or need something nice to use, but not too exciting. I also use this one often because it is nice :).

This emoji reminds me of Charlotte Brontë's character Jane Eyre. Jane has always been pretty level-headed and intelligent. I think this emoji has a sense of intelligence about it :) lol.





#4 Wise Turtle Emoji

I rarely use the turtle emoji, but it is sooo cute! This is good for the random moments of texting :).

The turtle emoji reminds me of Gandalf from The Hobbit. Gandalf is very wise and I think turtles could be wise too since some grow so old :).



#5 Sweet Emoji

I also use this one a lot because it is so sweet. It is all around just a happy emoji that makes you want to smile every time you look at it :).
This emoji reminds me of a book series I used to read as a little kid called The Cobble Street Cousins (By Cynthia Rylant). I loved these books so much, and the smiling emoji pretty much sums it up :).

Hope you all enjoyed my answers!

I wanted to share one more emoji for you all just because...


...this emoji reminds me of Kyle from Studio C. If you have never seen a Kyle video, they are the best :). Kyle is one of my favorite characters on YouTube, so be sure to check out the video below!

Thank you again to Sydney for nominating me!

I'm going to nominate... Anyone who would like to do this tag :)!
If you do decide to participate, I would love to see your answers!
Hope you enjoyed and also had a Merry Christmas!

Thinking About... Christmas 2015!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

 I am so excited! It's Christmas!! Christmas is my favorite holiday of the entire year! What is your favorite holiday? We are going to have a white Christmas this year, which I love! There is around 5 inches of snow on the ground at the moment. Do you have any snow?

We have a tradition of opening sugar cereal on Christmas Eve Eve, since we don't usually get sugar cereal :). This year we got Hershey's Cookies & Creams Cereal, Twix, and Lucky Charms. Do you have any traditions for Christmas?

I wanted to share some funny Christmas pictures from Pinterest with you all!

Minions caroling :)!

Have a Merry Christmas!!

Thinking About... A Sketch & Chester Greenwood Day!

Hey everyone! This is a picture of Stitch I drew then colored in :). I thought it turned out pretty well and I wanted to share it with you all!

Just so you all know, today (12/5/2015) is the day that Chester Greenwood's invention of earmuffs is celebrated! The official holiday (Chester Greenwood Day) is the 21st, but all of the festivities are held on the 5th!

Chester Greenwood (December 4, 1858 - July 5, 1937) of Farmington, Maine invented the earmuff in 1873, at the age of 15.^[1] He reportedly came up with the idea while ice skating, and had his grandmother sew tufts of fur between loops of wire.^[2] His patent was for improved ear protectors. He manufactured these ear protectors, providing jobs for people in the Farmington area, for nearly 60 years.^[1]In 1977 the State of Maine declared December 21 to be Chester Greenwood Day. Farmington continues to celebrate "Chester Greenwood Day" with a parade on the first Saturday of December.^{[3][4]  - from Wikipidia}

Chester Greenwood

Be sure to don your earmuffs today :)!

and...

Have a great day!!

Thinking About... Christmas!

Hey everybody! Happy December 1st!

Thanksgiving is over and now it's time for... CHRISTMAS!!!

Christmas is my favorite holiday! I love the lights, and ornaments, and snow, and music, 

and hot cocoa........ I could keep going on forever :)!

What is your favorite part of Christmas?

I just set up a Christmas tree in my room, which I got at Walmart for only $20! (Although I did have to buy lights.) This is the first time I've had a full sized tree in my room. Usually I have a small tree that I put on my dresser.

I put my Minnie Mouse ears from Disneyland on top of my tree :)

Here is a Christmas coloring page I was working on. It is finished now :). 

You can copy it right here if you want to color it too :)

These are a few pictures I took of frost last Sunday!

Which picture of the frost is your favorite? Comment below!
