I'm back!

Between school, the gym, and decorating my new house, I've not had a lot any time to do anything else.  This includes getting on the computer (and thanks to my iPhone and iPad), sometimes there doesn't even seem to be a reason for the computer ;)  Except to blog.  Which is something that, as you can tell, I've failed miserably at in the past almost month.  But, I'm back now and I'm hoping to start being more consistent with the blog!  I have so much I want to share, and so much I want to catch up on from my favorite bloggers.  But, first up, is the most recent edition of the Sunday Social, hosted by Ashley and Neely!

1. What is one movie you are terrified to watch?

Texas Chainsaw Massacre.  Really, does that sound like an interesting movie, NO!  To be totally honest, I don't watch scary movies.  I know some scary movies are worse than others, and I may like them, but I just can't seem to get over that "hurdle."  I'd much prefer a romantic comedy ;)

2. What is one TV show you have always wanted to get into, but haven't yet?

Recently, Downton Abbey.  I've never seen it, but I continually hear great things about this show.  I really feel as though I've missed the boat on this one.  Now, to start watching from the beginning...

3.  What is one daring activity on your bucket list?

Visiting Australia in 2015.  Why Australia?  Honestly, no clue.  Why 2015?  I promised myself from a very young age that I would go to Australia before I turn thirty.  With that being said, 2015 sounded like a nice year to shoot for, and if I can't go then, I still have about three years after that to make it a priority!

4. Would you ever travel alone?

Yes.  When and where, no clue.  I've always wanted to take a vacation alone.  I actually prefer vacationing with other people and sharing those memories with the ones I love, however, something about taking a vacation alone sounds so nice.  Just think - a relaxing vacation to somewhere peaceful, where I can spend time reading, enjoying whatever nice scenery is around me, and just enjoying that time to myself.  In fact, this is one of the goals on my 101 Goals in 1001 Days list, so at some point in the near future, I will be taking a vacation alone!

5. What activities do you like to do alone?

Read.  There really isn't anything that I only like to do alone.  Because, truly, I love spending time with my friends and family.  They really make everything better and more memorable.  However, I love to read when I'm the only person around so there are sure to be no distractions.
