My mom gave me this idea.
1. My uncle once: Read a story I wrote to my aunt and me.
2. Never in my life: Have I handglided.
3. When I was five: I don't remember much. I do know that Maxim was 2 at that time.
4. High School was: Something my parents went to and I will, too.
5. I will never forget: My birthday parties.
6. I once met: A girl named Sarah who wants to be on American Idol and be an author just like me.
7. There’s this girl I know who: Loves to make ragdolls. She, her sister, and I have a ragdoll club.
8. Once, at a bar: I don't know! I have no idea because I've never been to one!
9. By noon, I’m usually: Eating or starting lunch.
10. Last night: I fell asleep .
11. If only I had: a magic wand and wings. Boy would that make things easier!
12. Next time I go to church: I'll make a quiz during sacrament meeting.
13. Terry Schiavo: is somebody I don't know. Come on! I'm only eight!
14. What worries me most: is Maxim will break the chandelier doing his crazy flipping a sword into the air, in the living room, near the chandelier show!
15. When I turn my head left, I see: My mom typing on the computer as I am doing now.
16. When I turn my head right, I see: a towel in the shape of a bunny head on my messy computer desk.
17. You know I’m lying when: I lie!
18. What I miss most about the eighties: is I couldn't be born then to know how to answer this sentence!
19. If I was a character in Shakespeare, I’d be: Kate from The Taming of the Shrew.
20. By this time next year: I'll be nine, almost 10.
21. A better name for me would be: Nothing! I love my name! The only problem is people getting mixed up and calling me Katie or Katharine.
22. I have a hard time understanding: German.
23. If I ever go back to school, I’ll: Excuse me? I am in school!
24. You know I like you if: I smile any time I see you!
25. If I ever won an award, the first person I’d thank would be: The person who gave it to me.
26. Darwin, Mozart, Slim Pickens & Geraldine Ferraro: First Terry Schavio and now this?! I'll say this one more time . . . I AM ONLY EIGHT!
27. Take my advice, never: don't take my advice.
28. My ideal breakfast is: Eggs in a nest, toast, and sausage once every week with a big glass of lemonade.
29. A song I love, but do not own is: I don't know if I own this or not because my mom owns over 200 cd's and I own two but I love these song: "Manic Monday" and "Love Song."
30. If you visit my hometown, I suggest:
--> That you go to Kugo's Steakhouse! Yum! Wait a minute . . . Mommy? Am I drooling?!
31. Tulips, character flaws, microchips, & track stars: Tulips are pretty, character flaws are character flaws, I have no idea what microchips are, and I think I'm a singing star.
32. Why won’t people: Just stop being bullies?!
33. If you spend the night at my house: I will suggest to your kids (with whom I probably made friends) to sneak and hide so they can stay longer.
34. I’d stop my wedding for: Do I have to say this again? I AM ONLY EIGHT!
35. The world could do without: Guns, bombs, criminals. You know, the usual stupid stuff!
36. I’d rather lick the belly of a cockroach than: Jump out of an airplane, not wearing a safety harness, jump onto a trampoline being held by four naked clowns still wearing their makeup, who haven't taken a shower!
37. My favorite blonde is: Sarah Gooden.
38: Paper clips are more useful than: a piece of dust.
39. If I do anything well, it’s: Writing stories.
40. And by the way: Did I mention I AM ONLY EIGHT?!

The Magic Violinist
I am 21-year-old author, actress, daydreamer, voracious reader, introvert, klutz, fangirl, and overuser of tape. I love the impossible (which might explain my obsessions with YA novels) but I dip into the real world . . . occasionally. I’m a big fan of dogs, Broadway musicals, and bittersweet endings. When I'm not hunched over a laptop writing a new story, you can find me onstage in whatever theatrical production I've allowed to take over my life. I am a contributor to the “Fauxpocalypse” anthology and the author of “Instructions for Flight” and “Ghost Light,” both collections of poetry. You can follow me on Twitter and Instagram at @KateIFoley.

I REALLY enjoyed this post! You wanted my feedback. Here it is.
I think all your "I'm eight!" stuff is hilarious.
I love that you listed your birthday parties for number 5 since that's something we really do try to make special around here.
I love number 25. I don't think I've seen anyone else list that and yet it makes so much sense.
I had a difficult time with #38, but your answer is awesome! Well done!
We do not own either of those songs you've listed, but with my fun, new birthday present, we can work on that. ;) I like those songs, too. I love that our family enjoys all kinds of music.
I'm a little disturbed by the naked clowns. But I think it's funny, too. I mean you paint quite a picture. Clowns are disturbing anyway. Naked ones? Even more so! :P
I like number 24. It's so true. I love that when you call people on the phone, you always announce yourself with such innocent and pure joy as if to say, "Of COURSE you're happy to hear from me!" I love to hear you say so happily, "This is Kate!" You sound like you've just announced tha they've won a marvelous contest (which they kind of have). :)
Great post, Honey! I love it!
I've been waiting for a new post. Great job with some tough questions. I loved #11--I'd like that too! I'm with you on #35. And #39--understatment of the year. You are Great at writing stories. Very imaginative as well as descriptive.

Kate, you are hi-LARIOUS! I loved all your "only 8" things. That seriously cracked me up.
4. Public high school? Neat.
11. I totally agree with you. Wouldn't it be fun to do Wingardium Leviosa or something?
22. Me too.
36. That clown thing is pretty gross. I probably agree with that one.
Where on earth did you come up with the clowns?? That was a very disturbing picture :). I miss ya girly. I had a great time seeing/meeting you!
I'm DYING that you like "Manic Monday!" That is from when I was a little girl! Great taste. I've been asking for a magic wand and wings for my birthday for years now, but I still haven't gotten them. Maybe this year! ;)
Nice work! It's me Sarah. Go on my blog. I have my own email address. So now you can send barbie stuff.
