The Sunshine Award

Light
The Sunshine Award
I am not exactly sure how the Sunshine Award works, but I am super duper excited to say I was nominated by Amanda from the South Kakalaki Girl blog.  She asked me some questions, so I am going to answer them. Then I will nominate someone and ask them questions.  And so on.  :)

How long have you been blogging?  I have been blogging on School and Sun Tans since last year in October.  I have had so much fun along the way!

Why did you start your blog?  A few reasons.  One reason is because I love writing.  Another reason is because I love sharing my experiences with others.  I also think it is great to have something to keep girls busy in their free-time and help them with fashion, school, etc.

How do you choose what you will blog about (where does your inspiration come from)?  I mostly blog about random stuff, seeing how my life is usually random! ;)  If I'm reading a new book or come across some really cool fashion pieces, I blog about it!  I also blog about many other things, which are all about different stuff!

If you could move to another state, which state would you choose and why?  Wow.... this is hard!  If I want to become an actress, L.A. would be the best place to go.  BUT I really love the ocean, so Florida would be right up my alley!  So Florida it is.  I'll be living near the ocean, of course.

What is your favorite verse in the Bible?  My favorite bible verse is Philippians 4:13:  "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength."

How did you come up with the title for your blog?  I wanted a name to have something to do with school and summer, since they are both a big part of our lives.  So after thinking about it, I just knew "School and Sun Tans" sounded great together, so it seemed like the natural pick.  It let's readers know this is about school and summertime!

If you had a whole day to yourself, what would you do?  This might sound boring for some of you, but I would probably dive into a good read if I wanted to relax.  If I needed a wardrobe change, I'd shop.  And if it was hot and sunny outside, I'd go swimming!

What is your favorite name (besides your own, of course)?  Hmm.... I haven't really thought about that. I like all sorts of names, actually.  It's hard to pick just one!  But.... I think the name Winter is my favorite because it is such a pretty and unique name, and it reminds me of the season.

What is your favorite thing to eat?  I really like red velvet cupcakes!  Yum!

What is your favorite subject in school?  To tell the truth, I love all subjects!  There is something different about each of them that makes them all fun.  However, I love reading so much that I might have to say English is my favorite subject in school!

If you could have lunch with any literary character, who would you choose?  I have so many favorite book characters, that it would be hard to choose just one. But I would have to say Nancy Drew, because I love her books and her style!  And who knows?  Maybe we'd actually be able to solve a mystery together!

Hailey from Model Topia

Hi, I was nominated again by Hailey from Model Topia!  I am going to answer the questions she has asked me. (NOTE:  I am going to skip answers that I have already been asked.)

What is your favorite color?  Sky blue!  It reminds me of the sky and the ocean.

What is your favorite dessert?  I really like red velvet cupcakes.  Yummy.

If you could do anything you want in a days time, what would you do?  I would probably go to the spa and get a mani and pedi.  And then I would do something crazy like go sky-diving ;)

If you could drive any vehicle in the world, what would it be?  A red sports car or jeep.  Or a truck (it might sound weird for some of you, but it's true).

Would you rather wear jeans, shorts, or sweat pants?  It really depends on the weather, but I would probably choose shorts.

What is your favorite print (such as camo or zebra)?  You named my two favorite prints!  I like camo and zebra.

What is your dream job?  To become an actress, publish a really good book series, and help out animals in someway.

What is your favorite animal?  I really like pandas!  They are sooo cute!!

What do you do in your free time?  Read mostly.  I am such a book worm!  Other than reading, though, I like going places and trying new things.
