Giveaway Update!

With one day left in the President's Day Giveaway, I thought I would reveal the surprise prize! Take a look below:

President's Day Giveaway

Happy President's Day everyone! I hope you enjoyed it, whether you had the day off or not. For me, I had half the day off. I got the day off from work, but not from my college classes. It was a half-way decent break.

In the spirit of the holiday, I thought I'd grace you with some trivia. I'll keep it short - only five questions. See how many you can answer!

Leave your answers and email in a comment and you'll be entered into a giveaway. I'll keep this open until Sunday, February 21. You'll earn one entry for each correct answer.

1. Who was the first President of the United States?

2. Which president has a stuffed animal named after him?

3. Which president was known as the Swamp Fox?Which president was known as Old Hickory? (Thanks Liz for pointing this out. I'm still accepting your answers for an entry and giving you an extra entry!)

4. Which president is known for his stovepipe hat and Emancipation Proclamation?

5. Who was president when I was born? (1986)

Good luck and have fun with this!

New Features Coming

Just a short description of some of the new features coming to the blog:

Obsessed: My sister and I are all the time finding new things to be obsessed with. I'll keep abreast of what we're "obsessed" with and why. This is your chance to learn a bit more about me.

Opinionated: This one's for everyone out there who has a desire to share their opinion! Periodically, I will make a post about a specified topic and ask for your opinions in return. I want your honest opinions. This is about learning about differing views and seeing where others stand. Feel free to comment under annonymous on these posts if you would like!

Sister Time: Sisters (at least Crystal and I) share a bond that is extremely unique. I'm going to try to share some of those "sisterly moments" with you.

Words from a Writer: Similar to my previous Writerly Wednesday, this section will focus on writing and my thoughts on it.

Contests & Giveaways: Contests will require a little bit of effort to gain extra entries (mostly advertising the blog), while giveaways will allow for one entry and no extra effort. I'm hoping to host the first of these in February. Occasionally, I will also use this section for contests and giveaways of others.

Song of the Day: I am going to continue this feature with future posts, so keep an eye out for this section at the end of every (okay, most) posts.

Fun & Games: I will be hosting fun games in an effort to get to know my followers better. With each thing I host, I will invite you to host the same game on your own blog. Let's get to know each other better and have a little fun doing it!

Project Organize: I would say I'm systematically unorganized, meaning that I'm quite disorganized, but I know where to find things. One of the things I would like to work towards in 2010 is becoming more organized. I really think it would help in the future.

TV Talk: There are certain television shows that I watch each week. From time to time, I'll post snippets about them on here.

Movie Mayhem: Essentially the same thing as TV Talk, just with movies.

The Reading Chair: This one will be all about reading! Expect to find reviews and comments on books and other things that are reading related.


Hope you're as excited as I am for these new features!!
