How would you rate your sense of humor?
I would rate my sense of humor noticeable but not overly dramatic (i.e. slapstick). I can make people laugh relatively easily. I wouldn't consider it a "dry" sense of humor.

Do you exercise your humor often?
I would say that I do exercise it often. I don't always consciously exercise it, and in those times people tell me I'm funny.

What is/are the funniest moment(s) in your life?
The first thing that comes to mind is when I'm with my family, and I say "try not to make me laugh....I'm not laughing." In the end, we all end up laughing.

Are there moments you can recall (from any situation) that are so funny the mere thought puts a grin your face? What are they?
See previous question - when I tell my family that I'm not laughing, and I try really hard not to smile, and eventually we're all smiling and laughing.

What are "your favorite things"?
See the images/slideshow above!

My backyard mountain all covered in green
My self-built kayak that paddles serene
Helping others who think I'm just keen
These are a few of my favorite things

White sandy beaches, stretching for miles
Creating music always makes me smile
The Phantom of the Opera
And technology used to create this list I compiled
These are a few of my favorite things

Winter wonderlands that're a gift to the eye
The Sangre de Cristo's that seem to touch the sky
Making these rhymes
And blueberry pies
These are a few of my favorite things

When the homework looms
Dread the exams bring
When I'm feeling sad, bad, or am scantily clad (just kidding!)
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad!
Because they make me glad!
