Song Lyric Q&A \\ Challenge



Hi. I'm popping in again. For another tag... er, I guess it's technically a challenge. Thanks to Daminika for creating this and challenging me to do it! Sounds fun and hard. Especially when you consider the fact that I listen to music probably 50% less than Daminika (at least), and it was hard for HER. Help. xP I do love music though. Just for the record. Lol.

Let's goooooo



\\ RULES \\

link back to the blogger who challenged you
answer the five questions using only song lyrics

the entire song doesn't have to answer the question - just the line that you use

Make sure you say the name of the song you got the lyrics from, plus the name of the singer who sings it
Feel free to explain why you picked that song lyric, if you feel like it doesn't explain it all
challenge some bloggers




\\ What is your dream life?


Now you're walking down the aisle
And I can't help but smile

This is it, this is now, it's what I've been talking about
Looking out, I can see forever
So take my hand, just take it in
This is a moment we won't forget
On top of the world, here, together
Surrounded by our family and our friends


"This is It" by Scotty McCreery


\\ Where in the world do you live?


She needs wide open spaces...

"Wide Open Spaces" by Dixie Chicks

I don't even listen to this song, though I've heard it. I feel THIS line is pretty accurate since, though I live in a place where there's lots of trees and variety too, there are also those big beautiful wide-open country fields. <3



\\ What describes you?


Socially awkward
Not a smooth talker
But once you get to know me
I've got so much more to offer
When I'm face to face with you
Don't know what to say or do
Hard for me to play it cool
Awkward

"Awkward" by Scotty Sire

I heard this song while on vacation. It was like, pretty much how I had been feeling that evening, hanging out with a huge group of girls and knowing only three of them. And they were cousins I hardly ever see. So. I could put a whole bunch more of the lyrics up there, but that would be like half the song. *laughs*
disclaimer: there are some swear words in this song, sadly. And I wouldn't recommend the artist- I don't know much about him, but I saw some of the lyrics of one of his other songs and... yeah.


\\ How do you feel right now?



Because I find a different law at work deep inside my soul
constantly conspiring against my freedom
Binding me with blinding lies,
I've carried since my youth
That I've mistaken for the truth
Oh Jesus. Oh Jesus. Can you free me
Jesus can you free me from myself

"Free Me From Myself" by Lionel Cartwright

Finding a song that describes how I feel right now is too hard (my mood is too steady I guess *laughs*), so here is a song Daminika sent me, that I relate to. Especially the constantly conspiring against my freedom part. It'd probably be a powerful song for a lot of people. :)



\\ What is something you like to do?


makes you wanna roll your window down
Stick your hand in the air
Let the wild wind blow through your hair
Keep on ridin' 'til we run out of highway
Pass the dusty fields, through the tailgate towns
Find us a spot, watch the sun go down 

"Roll Your Window Down" by Scotty McCreery

This describes my idea of fun pretty well. Simple, good old-fashioned country fun. *happy sigh*



That was fun! It wasn't even super difficult, surprisingly. Must've not been trying too hard to make it as accurate as possible. :P

The All About Me Tag



Hello you all, and Happy New Year! I hope January has been treating you all well thus far. Can you believe it's 2020, a brand new decade?! 

So anyway, I've been by Daminika for The All About Me Tag, so let's get into it. :)  



THE RULES:

1. Link back to the person who started the tag.
2. Use the banner above in your post.
3. Answer the questions truthfully.
4. Tag at least three blogger friends.




THE QUESTIONS:

|| What is your favorite color? 

I don't know. Blues, purples? I can never answer this question. It's ridiculous, I know. *laughs* My favorite color was purple when I was little, I think. For wearing, I like deep colors, especially cool colors, but that probably is just because those look best on me.

|| Your blog/blogs?

This one, Simple Things.

I also have a photography site, Natasha Ann Photography.

|| Do you like to read?

Yes, I do! 

|| What is your favorite book?

Another question I don't know the answer to. So I'll pick one of my favorites that I read last year...



Entwined by Heather Dixon

|| What's your favorite sport?

Can I answer with an Olympic-type sport? Because I'm not into watching ball sports. xP I like figure skating! And gymnastics. Oh, I sometimes play disc golf. I don't LOVE it though. And I'm not very good either, haha!

|| What's your favorite movie?

MAN, I can't do favorites! I'll pick a favorite that I watched last year, once again...



The Magic of Ordinary Days

All the hearts for this movie! It was really good. <3


|| If you could time travel, when would you go?

Probably sometimes in the 1800's, when people went to balls and dances to socialize. How fun would that be?? Not during the Civil War though.

|| Favorite board game?

I really don't play board games that often. I like Apples to Apples, Scategories, Take-Two (like Bananagrams), 
Dutch Blitz, and various other card games.  

|| How many siblings do you have?

E i g h t!

|| What's your favorite Bible verse?


ONE of my favorite Bible verses would probably be... 

"But those who wait on the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint."

Isaiah 40:31



I TAG:

Anyone who wants to do it! As usual xP
