I was tagged again!
This time by my other good, long-time friend @lorraineblack90! Thanks Lorraine! You’re the best. :)
SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADO: 
Name: Elizabeth
Nickname: Liz, Lizzie, Lizzie Loo (my boss’ nickname for me), Sis (my family name)
Gender: Cis Female
Orientation: Bisexual
Nationality: I am an American, from the state of Maryland. 
Faith/Religion: Christian, the sense that I practice the religion in my own way. I’m more of a Christ-follower than anything; I don’t go to church very often, mostly because a lot of mainstream Christianity nowadays turns me off. But I am deeply spiritual and I love to study my religion, its origins and its teachings. 
Hobbies: Reading, listening to music, going out on the weekends with my friends, online shopping (particularly Amazon), researching history, baking every now and then. 
Pets: I have the best dog in the world, and his name is Ringo. 
Favourite color: My most favorite color is blue (especially dark blue), but I am also partial to green, purple, and red as well. 
Favourite holiday: The entire part of the year from Halloween to New Year’s. Somehow, mankind figured out that the only way to get through the last part of the year is to have one party after the other. From Halloween, to Thanksgiving, to Christmas, IT’S LIT!!!!!
Books: Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, As Series of Unfortunate Events, The Chronicles of Narnia, Holes, The Outsiders, Tuck Everlasting, Treasure Island, Ivanhoe, Bridge to Terrabithia, The Royal Diaries/Dear America series, American Girl series, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Persuasion, Evelina, Jane Eyre, Murder on The Orient Express, Ella Enchanted, The Brothers Karamazov, Anna Karenina, To Kill A Mockingbird, Catherine Called Birdie, The Midwife’s Apprentice, Crispin and the Cross of Lead....the list is very long. AND BIOGRAPHIES. So many biographies and social histories, you wouldn’t even believe.  
Movies: Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, True Grit (2010), Holes, Jurassic Park, Back To the Future, Indiana Jones, Star Trek IV: The Long Journey Home, Mulan, Pocahontas, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Lilo and Stitch, The Prince of Egypt, Tombstone, Sherlock Holmes 1 & 2, Murder On the Orient Express, War Horse, Wonder Woman (2017), Black Panther, Ghostbusters (both 1984 and 2016), The Godfather 1 & 2 (in that I’m fascinated by the family dynamic and not the lifestyle being portrayed), Coco, Sense and Sensibility (1995), Pride and Prejudice (2005), Little Women (1994), Lincoln, The King’s Speech, Belle (2013), The Joy Luck Club, The Mummy, Hairspray (2007), Grosse Pointe Blank, Friday (1995), The Birdcage, Pirates of the Caribbean, School of Rock, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Fiddler on the Roof, The Sound of Music, The King and I, The Quiet Man, Mary Poppins, Crazy Rich Asians....THE LIST COULD GO ON FOREVER. 
TV shows: The Office, Parks and Recreation, Brooklyn 99, Stranger Things, Due South, Harlots, Turn, Outlander, Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Simpson’s, The Middle, Modern Family, Superstore. But I also love miniseries as well, such as Horatio Hornblower, Bleak House, John Adams HBO, War and Peace (2016), Band of Brothers, North and South (2004). 
Music: Anything and everything. I have pop, R&B, musicals, hip-hop, rock music (mostly oldies tho), some country (I’m partial to older country, like Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash), Irish folk music, and a lot of classical music, too. 
Coffee, tea or hot chocolate: COFFEE PLEASE. 
Favourite meme: The one that goes “my wig’s been snatched,” LOL. I also miss the Breadsticks meme. And “I came out to have a good time and I’m feeling so attacked right now.” 
I want to live enough to: Get into the historical field, especially in terms of research and historical consulting. 
Weird obsession: Developing huge crushes on guys from the past. Yeah, I’m that person.  
Random facts: I never learned how to ride a bike, nor did I learn how to skate on roller skates. I never actually read The Great Gatsby; I Sparknoted that shit in high school. 
Goals for 2018: Start getting my freaking life together so I can continue being a successful person in 2019. Also...maybe I should start looking at schools so I can do online classes, so I can finish my Bachelor’s degree. 
I’m not gonna do any tagging on this one, but if you see this and wanna do it, feel free to do so!
