Nice, since when do so many people listen to forest frank?? I thought he was a lesser known artist

Forgot my other two 🤦‍♀️.... 4. Tobymac 5. Elevation Worship

Haha, no worries! Nicee, we have similar taste!!

Mine are 1. for KING + COUNTRY 2. JWLKRS Worship 3. Forrest Frank.....I absolutely love yours! Elevation Worship's "Praise" is one of my favorite songs!

Ohh, that's so cool! I've actually never heard of JWLKRS Worship before, I'll have to check them out!

You totally should! If you've ever heard the song "I Thank God", they sing that 🙃

Hello I should probably introduce myself. I am NinjaNumber1, and am in the tenth grade and enjoy reading, basketball, and playing video games.

Hi! I love reading as well! What is your fav video game?

I have three favorites, Fortnite, Call Of Duty, and Jedi Survivor. But my main is Fortnite.👍

Hi! I love reading too! Nice to meet you!

Cool, I am in 7th Grade and reading, basketball are some of my hobbies!

Nice, reading is also one of my hobbies, as well as baking/cooking and field hockey! What's your genre preference?

Nice, I lean more towards sci-fi, fantasy, and dystopian fiction (the hunger games, divergent, the giver quartet; all amazing reads)

Here is a funny quote for you guys.“There are three stages of man: he believes in Santa Claus; he does not believe in Santa Claus; he is Santa Claus.”– BOB PHILLIPS. Have a great day!

Yeah I am too. I have always been in the second stage.

lol, I've always been suspicious –– I even debated my uncle once on that topic

How has everyone's Thanksgiving Break been?!!

I wish! We don't get any, in fact here people don't celebrate Thanksgiving. Unlike @techfashion0315 I feel like school is my home away from home (not in a good way), so I absolutely can't wait for winter break.

People there don’t celebrate thanksgiving?!?!?

Noo, it's different here, a bummer actually, but it is what it is (and you don't throw a fit, lol)

Oh my word, I needed that break! It was nice to just relax and not worry about deadlines or essays. How about yours?
