We Have A Winner!

Rebekah K. is the winner of "25 Questions" by guessing...

Swedish Fish!!!

Awesome job, Bek...and to everyone that guessed!!!! I can't believe you guys didn't need a hint!

(The picture is my attempt at creating a Swedish Fisherman :) )

Anyway, I thought it was only appropriate to start off with Swedish fish, since...you guessed it, it's one of my favorite things!!! So, Rebekah will be getting:
a bag of Swedish fish
along with
an ISU t-shirt
...'cause as a lot of you know, I'm a big fan of my school
(Jonathan, I already know what you're thinking, so you don't have to say it 'cause I still loved going to school there)!

Thanks for playing!!!

Happy April Fool's Day!!! It's a good day 'cause it's the start to "My Favorite Things"...and no, I'm not pulling a trick on you. Actually, I thought about acting like I wasn't going to do it anymore as my April Fool's joke...and decided against it since I thought that would be fun for...well, no one. :)

.

So, let's get started!!! I'm going to begin by introducing a "game" that is going to go all year round...it's called, "Character Counts". Let me just say here that I'm not going to announce what my favorite thing for the month is until we have a winner...but I'll let you know that I believe good character and great examples should receive the best prizes...so with that said, the prize for "Character Counts" will be the best prize of them all...

A. because there will only be one winner for a contest that goes for an entire year and

B. because I love acknowledging great character!!!

.

Presenting...

Character Counts

.

What: Each month, I'm going to introduce a character quality. During that month, you can nominate a person who has demonstrated that character quality to be entered for a chance to win the prize at the end of the year.

Where: You can nominate someone on any post during that month.

When: You can only nominate 1 nominee per month and only for the character quality of the month in which you're nominating.

How to nominate: Tell us their name (don't give the last name for safety reasons with this being an open blog), and how the character quality was demonstrated.

.

April's Character Quality:

Dependability vs. Inconsistency

"Fulfilling what I consented to do, even if it means unexpected sacrifice"

April's "My Favorite Things" game: 25 Questions

.

For those of you who have been with this blog for a while, you may remember playing this game! It's been one of my favorite "Silly Nothings" games played...so I thought it was only appropriate to have it be the first one.

.

Who: You

What: I have a person, place, or thing in my mind and everyone can ask questions. I'll take up to 25 questions and whoever is the first to guess, will win! If 3 people think a hint is needed, I'll give one, but there can only be 2 hints given so that's why there have to be at least 3 people asking for one

Where: You can ask the question on any post until a winner is announced...I recommend posting your question/guess in the most recent post or I may not see it.

.

It's a THING.

.

So there you have it! Let the games begin...25 Questions and Character Counts!
