Saturday 9

Roar

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!


Saturday 9: Roar
(recommended by Cat)


If you're not familiar with today's song, you can hear it here.

1) The lyrics begin with Katy singing about when she used to "hold her tongue." Tell us about a time when you didn't speak up, but wish you had.
Mostly when my choices as a mother have been questioned.  I always regret keeping my mouth shut, instead of sticking up for myself.  I try to keep the peace by not saying anything and am always mad at myself after.


2) The lyrics mention both lions and tigers. In addition to the big cats, the video shows a monkey and an elephant. If we were going to the zoo today, which animal would you want to see first?
The giraffes.


3) Lions and tigers are carnivores. If we were having steak for dinner, would you order it rare, medium or well done?
Medium.


4) Lots of photos are snapped at the zoo. Did you take your last picture with a camera or with your phone?

My phone.


5) The "Roar" video takes place in the jungle. The average temperature all year around in the rainforest is a humid 80º. The typical September day in Juneau is 49º, dry and sunny. Which sounds more comfortable?

I'm not a fan of the cold but I hate humidity, so Juneau it is!

6) In her youth, Katy took dance lessons at the local recreation hall in Santa Barbara. Crazy Sam took tap dance lessons as a girl, too. What about you? Were you sent off to dance class? Music lessons? Art class?

I was in Brownies and I took a few baton classes.

7) Katy recently passed Justin Bieber as the most followed person on Twitter. What's the last message you re-tweeted?

I don't think I've ever re-tweeted anything.

8) Congratulations! You just won the lottery! Do you want it in a lump sum, or would you prefer payments over the next 25 years?
Tough to say.  I'd like to get a lump sum to take care of a lot of things and a lot of people right now, but it would also be nice to know that I'd be getting a steady check for the next 25 years.


9) Did you get 8 hours sleep last night?

No.

  1. It seems we're all choosing instead of the jungle!

    I'm sorry that you regret not sticking up for yourself and your mothering skills. That sounds like such a frustrating situation!
