Hi guys! So i decided to make a game called "That time I..."! Its a game where you tell about a close call or a really cool story that actually happened! I hope you try it out because it would make me really happy :D I also want to thank you all for over 30 followers!

Cool! One time in 3rd grade my friend and I were at her uncles lake house for her older sisters bday party and we were going tubing. We got on the tube and about 3 seconds after the tube hit a wave and we went flying off, and we sunk into the water. Luckily we had life jackets on. My friends hand was stuck in the tube handle, but she got it out! Apparently we were too light to tube by ourselves.

Wow! That's serouis. So glad you guys are all safe! Thanks for sharing! Also, thank you glxysnail for this great fun game idea!

Here's some questions! 1. Do you have any trips you were planning that got canceled because of covid? 2. How long has it been since your last haircut? Do you want to grow your hair out or cut it shorter? 3. Do you prefer to have the same thing for breakfast every day, or something different every day? 4. Are the libraries open where you live? Bonus Question! Have you ever read Sorcery of Thorns? I've been meaning to try it out, is it any good? THANKS!

OMG HI BEACHBREEZE15!! It's been so long since I've been on here but i missed y'all! 1. We were planning maybe a road trip out west to see some national parks, and a trip to see some family, both unfortunately canceled :(. 2. My hair has gotten sO long during quarantine I defenitely wanna get a cut soon! 3. Since I have so much time, I usually eat different things! 4. Not yet! Bonus: I have not, is it good? yayaaya

1. Yes, we were planning to go visit family in New Hampshire, but we are not :( 2. Yikes, quite a while!! My hair is pretty long, but I was thinking about cutting 9 inches off soon to donate. Then it would be a lot shorter!! What do you think? Should I?? 3. Usually just cereal. 4. No. :( Also I have not read Sorcery of Thorns, but it looks good!!

You totally should! Donating your hair is a great cause, and when I cut my hair short it felt amazing, really light and freeing. Plus, showers take less time, and your hair won't get tangled as much ;)

1. Not yet 2. 3 weeks. I got my haircut in the beginning of June. NO! 3. Same thing. I have a muffin and yogurt or milk. 4. IDK, maybe? 5. No

My answers: 1. Yes, I was supposed to go to California for my uncle's wedding and New York for my cousin's graduation. 2. 5 months, I have chin-length hair, so I'm going to grow it out a bit. 3. The same thing! I have Greek yogurt with chocolate chips and coconut flakes every morning. 4. No, sadly, I have to rely on Ebooks for now :(

Man that sounds like a great breakfast @ beachbreeze15. Do you use a specific flavor of Greek yogert?

I like the plain Greek yogurt the best, but every now and then we get the yummy vanilla flavored kind ;)
