Now I know I've done like literally thousands of blog posts on Faith Staley but she's fun to write about so let's do it again shall we. My first initial post about Faith was probably back in quarter one or like quarter two so it has been awhile. So let's begin with what has changed in Faith's life since the last interview.


The Snapchat captions says it all. Selfie

Faith's family has adopted a new puppy named Rosie. And let me tell you I love puppies! If I could take a bath in puppies I totally would. So when I heard that Faith was getting a puppy I basically squealed out of pure joy. Now raising puppy is not as cute as a puppy itself. So when I got my puppy I had to clean up a lot of her "accidents" so to speak. And now Faith has gotten accustomed to doing that as well. Animals are weirdly like extremely sassy and strangely jealous when a new pet comes along. So I wasn't surprised to hear that Faith's kitty (Lizzy) has been meaner than usual. So now Faith has a lot more scratches which is new. Another change is that Faith rearranged her room which actually isn't that     unusual. But still extremely amazing. You can read more about her spontaneous room reconfigurings here.

Some new addictions that Faith has developed are mainly focused on new musicians. Now you probably know this artist quite well Winds of Change (it's pretty A+++ tbh.) And there's another band that she's been listening to a lot more than before and that band is the ever glorious band called City and Colour.
from his undoubtedly famous song: Riptide. But Faith absolutely adores another song by him called

Yep so thats it for this blog entry and I hoped you enjoyed learning a little bit about what's happening with Faith's erratic and hectic life.

15 Questions for Faith Staley

It's been quite some time since I've done a post on Faith Staley (I think it was like 1st quarter or something). So I came up with this idea called "15 questions" where I ask a person 15 completely random and stupid questions and the person has to answer. I thought it would be a fun psychological experiment or something to see different people's responses. So, here we go! (These are kind of direct responses from the people)

1. If you had to date one male celebrity who would it be and why?
Faith said that she'd date Aidan Turner because he's very good looking.

2. If you had to date one female celebrity who would it be and why?
Faith would date Sarah Hyland because like Aidan Turner, she's very good looking (she also knows how to tap dance).

3. Would you rather live at the South Pole or at the North Pole
The South Pole because penguins are "rad".

4. If you only had to eat one thing for the rest of your life what would it be and why?
Faith would eat any kind of soup because soup is very tastefully pleasing.

5. What was the last lie you told?
The last lie that little ol Faith told was at a dance competition. She told this girl that she was bad at hair buns, but Faith is actually really amazing when it comes to big fancy ballet buns. She told this fib so the girl would feel better about her own hair.

6. What is your ideal pizza?
Faith's ideal pizza is cheese, tomato, and pineapple (delicious!)

7. What was your first though this morning?
Faith's first thought this morning was, "Can they please shut up?!" Apparently Faith's father and her little sister Willoughby were having a very loud conversation right outside of Faith's door in the morning. I would be angry too.

8. If you could be any age for a week, what age would it be?
She would be nine which is the prime elementary year.

9. What cheers you up?
Faith is quite the creator. I mean on the way up to Jackson she crocheted a warm hat to wear. So one activity that creates happiness in her is to make things. The Beatles also make her ever so joyful. And one last item that makes Faith happy is glitter, she's obsessed with the stuff.

10. Have you ever eaten a crayon or glue?
Faith says that she has never eaten a crayon or glue but has ingested a lot of glitter.

11. What is your favorite word?
Her all time fav word is defenestrate, and it means to throw something out of a window. For example, I defenestrated your laptop outside of a window and hit the neighbor's cat.

12. What is your least favorite word?
Well Faith tries not to be "word discriminatory
" but if she was forced to choose a word she would choose a word that is harmful towards others.

13. If you had to named after a city or area, what city or area would it be?
Faith would love to be named after a galaxy. It's the galaxy Andromeda and then she thinks that Jupiter's moon Callisto would be cool to be named after.

14. Have you ever had any relatives in jail?
Not that she knows of...

15. Mountains or the beach?
The mountains of course! (the beach is overrated tbh)

Well that was actually a lot of fun to write! Hopefully I'll do another post like this one on somebody else. Who knows? I mean, the world may never know.

Faith Staley: "Give Peace a Chance"

Image Courtesy: Faith Staley
Ah Faith Staley, the hippie feminist. A friend of mine who has a unique persona. We met in seventh grade in our social studies class. We had a teacher named Mr. Sanderson who made us do a mormon pioneer project. Well Faith took charge and invited our group to her humble abode and made me act as a girl for the project. We basically got an A+ on that project. 

This last summer Faith and I decided to spend one of the last days of summer throwing vegetables off of a mountain. So that’s what we did. We started from Faith’s house and rode to the grocery store to buy vegetables. I believe we bought an eggplant, two tomatoes, candy, and some peace tea. We then biked to PC hill and hiked to the top where we experienced some soaring hang gliders. We then started dancing to the Beatles and began to throw the organics. First we splattered some tomatoes which was quite satisfying. And then Faith viscously ripped open the eggplant and we threw it off. It was a pretty spot on day. 

A picture I took from the day we threw
vegetables off of PC Hill.
She uses coconut oil for everything and is a sucker for ballet. Faith is a Harry Potter fanatic and listens to the Beatles religiously. An interesting fact about Faith is that she has tea parties on roofs. Yes we have climbed onto her roof with tea and water bottles and danced to Wavin' Flag while waving to her neighbors. She attends environmental movie festivals and has even gone to congress with a petition against fracking. All in all, she is exponentially determined to get what she wants and will not stop at a simple no. Faith also started a blog about the sexist dress code at our school. Check it out here: Dresscoded.

Faith also has a weird fascination with ice skating. Like once we were just sitting around and all of a sudden she had an outburst about how badly she needed to go ice skating. This went on for weeks on end until she finally went ice skating. Let’s just say that she was way too happy.

Faith partakes in the Park City Dance Academy and was recently given the role of Raggedy Andy in their version of the Nutcracker. So go Faith! But seriously though, she is an awe-inspiring dancer and is truly amazing. I personally can not wait until I can go see Faith kill it in the Nutcracker.

My final story for Faith is the time that we got stuck in a ball. It was a sunny afternoon near the end of eighth grade and we were at Faith’s house with two other friends. We were having a blast having a tea party until the tea ran out and we ran around her house. I walked into Faith’s garage and saw a deflated hamster ball type thingy. It looked like this: hamster ball. Anyways, someone had the brilliant idea to get inside of it. So one person got in and we eventually all squished up inside of it. Let me tell you that it was super painful and uncomfortable. But we still laughed our heads off. No matter what, you will always have a blast with Faith.
