Living in a large family can be madness sometimes.

Living in a large family can be madness sometimes. But it's absolutely worth it.

Season Transitions

October 17th, 2013

Hey, guys, I'm alive!
So today's my half-Birthday! Meaning I'll be 18 in six months... *refuses to believe it* But anyway, I guess I'll talk about today... and then get into other things!
MOPs has started again, and I actually got to go today! :) I've had a cold for... *checks things* ...about two and a half weeks, and so missed the last one. But I'm doing much better, and thus got to go today! I meant to bring my camera and take pictures, but it sort of slipped my mind. But anyway, there was this four year old boy named Skyler who's just absolutely adorable. :) I... I can't figure out exactly what it is about him, but he's really cute (in terms of a little kid), and at one point, I sort of attacked him with my hair (which is at a decent length), and he said that my hair was scary, which I found hilarious. :D And the shy, quiet boy I mentioned in number two of my Thoughts While Babysitting came again this year since he was 4 last year and is now 5. I'm definitely going to miss him next year. Anyway, his name's Carter and he has really curly blond hair, which makes me think of a good friend of mine whom I call Uncle Kenny. I loved that on the first day of MOPs this year, Carter came right up to me and showed me his new Perry the Platypus shoes as though a mere two weeks had passed since he'd last seen me. It made me really happy. :) And today, he came over to me as soon as he came into the room and starting playing with me. ^_^ I definitely get the feeling he's on the autism spectrum, which I find super cool. Thaaat's about all on today, though I did go to the chiropractor, but that's not exactly an exciting thing.
So the last of my summer was uneventful, but good, for the most part. :) Then I started school in the beginning of September, and even though I was really nervous 'cause I have a good bit this year, it wasn't that difficult, and it's still not hitting me that hard. I don't really have much more than that, but since I've been sick for a really long time, Dysprosium wrote with washable crayons of some sort on my bathroom mirror which made me happy! :)

This is the closest you're gonna get to a picture of me. And yes, that's an Invader Zim shirt! Titanium gave it to me recently. It makes me happy. :D


And I don't have anything else, so for the time being, good day!

Writing

June 15th, 2013

I was on an Internet fast for June, so this was originally on paper. But after I got back from mah fast, I did a post on everything I did. You can find that here.

...Wow, I'm observant. *sarcasm alarm goes off* This was supposed to post automatically a while ago and didn't. It's now October (of 2013), and I only just noticed.

-----------


I guess I like writing because it's my way of escaping. I've always wanted to to sword fight, fly, use magic, ride a horse through unexplored lands, and other sorts of things without actually being in danger.
We don't have holodecks, so writing's the closest I can get. I suppose there are video games too, but there are few games that are what I like. Legend of Zelda's the closest, except maybe Fate. Or Wizard101. Or, I guess, Adventure Quest, although if it were me, I'd wear more.
What I really want is a Pick-A-Path in a really schweet world with unlimited options. I suppose everyone wants that, though. Holonovel! What I really want is a holonovel. But alas, no holodeck.
I think I could write a really good holonovel. I'd base it off the only Pick-A-Path I tried to write. See, I had it start with you waking up in the clearing of a forest, and there's this path real nearby, and there are a coupla dudes travellin' along it. Oh, and in the clearing, there's this rock with a weird symbol on it, buuut if you look closely at it, it becomes a letter. :)
Anyway, it wasn't thought through very well. But if it were a holonovel, all I'd have to do is program the world and then all the people. Sure, it'd be time consuming, but it would be absolutely worth it. It would probably be really popular, too! I think I'd rock as an authoress in the Star Trek 'verse.

Magnus

October 17th, 2013
So I wrote this post on the date mentioned and never posted it, I guess because I wanted to add more update, which I'm planning to do in another post that I'm working on today.... Hopefully, I'll actually post that one.

August 28, 2013
So I found a spider on the night of the 24th and with Dysprosium's help, I got him in a jar, just 'cause I felt like keeping him for a while. ...He stayed alive two and a half days. It's completely his fault for not eating the insects I gave him! Anyway, I had meant to do a daily post on how he was doing, but I kept not doing it... and then he died. Sigh. Well, I have some pictures!

 When I first found him on my hand towel...
 Not long after I'd named him Magnus...
While he was eating on a cricket... or... something. You can't really see it very well.
And just a random picture - nothing specific was going on. The beetle you see in with him was named Frodo, by my brothers.

So... um... he was my second pet ever and it was exciting.
