I have not yet seen an #100things Opuss with a hundred things listed on it, so I am determined to do it all in one. That's one thing about me: when I'm determined about something, I will do it, no matter what. One hundred things in one... Here we go:
1. Meowing
2. Reading~I love reading! Not to brag, but I've won every summer reading program at my school. I usually read about two books per day. And also the backs of cereal boxes, liquid soap, hand sanitizer, the cheesy posters in my classroom (only if I get really bored), my math book (if I get WAY too bored), and street signs (though the car is usually going too fast to read them completely).
3. Hoopin'~It's almost like hula-hooping, but you do tricks with the hoop. For example, a corkscrew is when you have the hoop on your waist and you lift it up above your head and keep it moving in one quick movement.
4. Speaking 3 languages fluently~English (of course), German, and Spanish.
5. Speaking 2 languages not fluently but enough to say I know it~Icelandic and Filipino
6. Laying in bed with my covers covering all of me~And not having to go to school for four days on a long weekend=Paradise
7. Drawing~I love to draw trees and eyes<--- Yes I like to draw eyes. Oh and random heads too.
8. Eating~Food is good. It helps me live. And I'm grateful for it, because there's millions of kids and people without food. Think about it...
9.Playing laser tag~Yes, I am a bit of a nerd...But it's really fun. :)
10. Fighting with my sister~It's natural. She's older than me. With all the makeup. But no boyfriend. Hee hee.
11. TRYING to exercise~Not possible.
12. Going on a diet~I'm only 11. For Pete's sake, I NEED food and chips. I tried before. Not the best idea.
13. Drawing faces on balloons and then naming them~Again, I'm a bit weird. My latest one is named Junior. :)
14. Taking photographs of nature~I love nature photography and the little things.
15. Watching culinary chef programs~I am VERY creative. When I grow up I want to have a creative (not weird or disgusting) job. Like maybe a culinary chef. Though I'm not really good at baking...that might get in my way.
16. Day-dreaming
17. Eating pancakes and waffles~Heaven right there
18. Watching movies~"The Princess Bride" and "Spaceballs"
19. Acting in plays~So far, I've done 25. I started at age 6 and right now, I am in the play "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown" at my middle school. My favorite role and play was being the littlest angel in "The Littlest Angel."
20. Decorating my house for Christmas~Every year, my family puts up a huge light show that "dances" with music from Thanksgiving to around New Year's.
30.Loathing shopping~If you drag me off to shop, I will chain myself to my house and refuse to go and will be determined to stay (going back to my introduction). My mom HAS succeeded before, but she has not heard the end of it yet.
31. Singing~I love to sing just as much as I love reading. My favorite songs to sing (but not my favorite songs) are "The Lonely Goatherd" from 'Sound of Music', "Rolling in the Deep" by Adele, and "Two" by The Band Perry. I sing in the hallways at school and also before and after school. I can't stop singing. I also occasionally sing during classes when we're working on a paper in partners and everyone is talking and can't hear me. I also sing with the kid who's locker is next to me. He's really good at singing.
32. Dancing in my room~I'm not really that graceful and I'm not that thin, but I like to think that I look like those dancers that are really good at dancing. It's not my dream to become a dancer though.
33. Dreaming up simulators~I don't know why, but I love simulators and I would maybe like to do that too as a job when I grow up. I find that a lot of people like to "play pretend" I guess and be something that they're not. I just love role playing and simulation and I guess that's where I got my love for acting from. Also books maybe, because I could be in the story too.
34. Laughing~I do it everyday :)
35. Eating my favorite foods~curry wurst, baklava, ice cream, and pizza.
36. Watching TV
37. Hanging out with friends~One of my friends is moving soon, so I'm trying to squeeze all the extra time in with her as possible. My other friends are my lifeline.
38. Going to church~Please no arguing on this one. None in the comments at all. I love God and he loves me.
39. Eating mints~I am addicted to mints! I bring them to school and share them with the kid next to me (the singing kid) who is also addicted to mints. My favorite is Wint o' Green and Spearmint, though some people say they are the same. It is a lengthy and complicated debate. Again, I am not your typical girl.
-Sixty more to go!-
40. Doing all the things a kid does~Closing the fridge door slowly to see the light turn off inside, bumping a drawer with your hip to close it, making faces at people I don't like when they're not looking, trying to balance the light switch between on and off, etc.
41. Trying on jewelry~Preferably the expensive kind like diamonds (my birthstone) and really weird jewelry.
42. Optical Illusions~I love to look at them and figure them out. I also love 3d chalk art.
43. Cuddling~Even though I'm a bit claustrophobic.
44. Thinking of things that are way to complicated~Like my family tree: I'm directly related to John Q. Adams, John Adams, Ty Cobb, the Pope of London in 600 A.D. and Charlemagne.
45. Listening to music~I like contemporary anything
46. Playing on my iPad~Of course my main two apps I'm on are Opuss and then Instagram. Opuss is my favorite :)<---Duuhhh!!!
47. Thinking up inventions~Inventions that, if put into manufacturing, would have no use at all...

53. Debating with my sister
54. Video Games~Really only Wii. And if you count iThing apps...
55. Messing with iThings~I usually mess the whole system up...
56. Hiding~Mostly from my sister. Or just sitting in a dark room thinking what to do next. Which leads me to this...
57. Learning~I'm really good in school and I've never gotten a 'B' on my report card.
58. Trying to learn weird things~Like wiggling your ears, or raising one eyebrow (successful), or twitching your nose, or trying to curl my tongue and roll it, or...
59. Watching people~And giving them names and working them into poems or stories.
From here on out, my "things I like to do" will be shorter so you won't be bored out of your mind. If you aren't yet.
60. Trying to be flexible
61. Riding horses~The two I ride are named Monty (a thoroughbred) and Ginger (a mix of a thoroughbred and quarterback).

Opuss is a fantastical place for talented poets and writers to work their magic in their own little paradise. Remember-
Beautiful Words.
