You Ask, I Answer!

Hey! You all asked questions on this post, and now, I answer! Your questions are bold, and my answers are not.


How do you get your dolls' eyes to close while they are upright?
I double-loop a small piece of tape and place it directly under the doll's eyes. Then I pull down the eyelid and gently press it against the tape.
How do you do so well at stopmotions? 
Practice! Watching other stopmotions also helps me realize what others are looking for.
How many dolls do you have?
Four. You can view them here.
Are you planning on getting another American Girl doll anytime soon? If so, which one?
Probably not. It may come some in the future, but right now, I'm not asking for any dolls. I don't even want Cecile anymore!
If you were to buy anything from American Girl, what would it be? {Even the retired/archived items!}

Ooooo..... Definitely a lot of Kirsten's collection, maybe some Felicity items, Jess, Jess items and maybe some Mia or Lanie items.

What is your favorite doll? (I am trying to choose what one to get, so please reply soon!!)

Well, out of all of my dolls, Kirsten. Even though I love my other dolls, Kirsten will always be special because she was my first. As for dolls available now... I really like Kaya (but only if you are expierenced in caring for dolls's hair and can handle very long hair), Kit, MAG #40, MAG #52, and MAG #37.

On what website did you print of the mask template?

Click here and play the 'Pretty Party' game. When you solve/finish it, you can get a mask template!

If I wash my Julie doll's hair will it make where the braid use to be (when I took it out it was wavy) go away?Because I want to wash her hair but I don't want that part to go away!

Hmmm.... Because American Girl doll hair is made with a special plastic that style the hair to be a certain way (ever notice how curly doll hair remains curly even after you wash it?), I would say that the hair will still be wavy. 

Could you tell me your favorite singers and or songs?

ADELE! Absolutely and honestly Adele- she is amazing live and has totally awesome albums! I love her songs!

What sports do you play?

I do cheerleading and volleyball.

If you could have one special talent that you'll be really good at what would it be?

Hmmm..... I guess being a very good singer! I'm an okay one, but I want to be able to sing with confidence.

Why do you almost never reply to comments?

This is a commom misconception. I DO reply to comments, but only on new posts (usually the 2 newest). This is because I've found that more people are going to reply back to me on newer posts than an older one (people rarely return to old posts). However, if you have any questions, I will be able to reply to you more if you e-mail me. 

This year it's the Summer Olympics! What are your favorite sports to watch? (Winter and Summer)

I love gymnastics, diving, ice-skating, and really, whatever's on (as long as it's not boxing)!

I'm trying to start a blog but can't seem to figure out how to do it. Can you give me a step by step? It said I have to be 13?

Sure! 

1. Go to Blogger.com and click 'Get Started'!

2. Create a Google Account. (If you are under 13, have your parents help).

3. Once you've done that, click the orange arrow and name your blog and URL.

4. After that, click the orange arrow and choose a template and start designing your blog (if you need help on that, I'll post about it soon)

5. Click 'Finish/I'm Done' and you're done!

I hope you girls enjoyed asking questions and I look forward to hearing your feedback1

Ask Me Anything! (and some questions for you too!)

Hey girlies! Do you remember last January when I answered some of your questions? Well, I'm doing this again! Please leave a comment on this post asking me any question (as long as it's reasonable and not personal). This is a great way to get to know me better and I can answer your questions!


Now, for the questions for you!
So, as you know, for my AG trip next month, we are eating in the bistro! But, I was curious about their food. If you've ever eaten at an AG Place, please answer these questions!
1. What did you order? Did you like it?
2. Does a meal come with dessert?
3. Is the pink lemonade really that good?


Ask away!

Your Questions Answered!

Hey! Yesterday, I invited everyone to ask me questions about myself and dolls. I had an amazing response and I can't wait to share the questions and answers with you! First, I just want to say that I did not put who asked the question just because some questions were asked twice. Second, the questions are in order by when they were asked. Now, read on! :-)


If you were to get one more doll, who would it be?
I'm glad you asked. I would really like a doll with brown eyes, brown, curly hair, and dark skin. It's MAG #46, however, I would like to see what the GOTY 2012 and new historical look like before I purchase this girly.

How do you personalize your header?
I create my header using Photoshop or iPhoto, and then customize it with my photos, text, and color.


When did you get your first doll?
I got Kirsten in the summer of 2005. I only remember that because of a 1st Grade Journal Entry I wrote just after it:

For those of you who can't read my 1st Grade Handwriting or lame grammar, here it what it says (this is directly from the paper):

This summer I went to Minnasota and I went to my Causins house there and when I got there and I saw My Aunt and My cosin Looking at a Doll Magasin and I told them I wat a Amacan girl doll and my Aunt yes.

I think you can figure out what I was going for. :-) Actually it did happen like this! I had to pay half with my aunt and we ordered Kirsten and her Midsummer Outfit.

How do you juggle having 2 blogs, a Youtube, Flicker (etc...)?
It's hard. I focus more on IHAG (which is the reason for less posts on the NP) so YouTube is just second to that. With iPhoto, I can directly upload my pictures from iPhoto to Flickr. I try to make it all work.


Where do you live? (state, city (maybe)?
I can't give my city away, but I do live in Tennessee!


Do you have a fan mail address?
I don't have a snail mail address (but would you like that?) but I do have an e-mail address where you all can send me anything! Just check my 'Contact Me' page for more info.


How old are you?
12.


How did your blog become so cool/awesome? (because it is :P )
Thanks! Hmmm.....  I don't know how to answer this, but I guess I just put a lot of my effort into it. If you think your blog is great, others will too! :-)


I was wondering how many AG dolls do you have, and this is random but do you like Pirates of the Caribbean?
I have 3 American Girl dolls and 1 Madame Alexander doll. Sorry, but I'm not interested in Pirates of the Caribbean, I never got into it.


Which AG pet do you like best?
That I own? I can't decide! But from the ones that I don't have, Ginger!

What's your favorite book and movie?

Book? Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Movie? Harry Potter and the Order or the Phoenix.

Who is your favorite GOTY?

Jess McConnell!

If you were to do another contest, what would it be?

Probably my Earth Day Photo Contest or a Spring Photo Contest.

Other than American Girl, what's your favourite place to get clothes for your dolls? 

Hmm..... I don't really buy a lot of non-AG brand clothing, but I do enjoy making them!

Also do you like other dolls besides AG?

I like Madame Alexander Girlz dolls! (Kaylen, Catherine, Natalee)

What is your all time favorite doll, even if you have it or not?

I don't have a favorite doll in my collection. But I guess for one that I don't have, Jess!

I had a lot of fun doing this! I may do it again sometime in the summer.

Thanks,

Gabby
