Book

Been writing a book -
And you, as a dedicated reader, get to have a sneak peak!  Btw, it's called "Deception"  Hope you like reading!  Enjoy!

Prolog

A man ran through the dark.  Although he was quite early for his meeting, the idea of the rewards and riches he would be given for this information was too spectacular to wait out in the cold for.  Plus, the Princess would be pleased about his early appearance.  That would definitely mean a bonus in his prize.

He skidded to a halt by the fourth gate he saw on the dirt road.  Gazing up at the dark, twisted mansion in front of him, he began to

Life as Noelle

A couple photos I
Took months ago and never posted.  I call them "life" photos.  :-)  Enjoy!

Counter-clockwise from top left corner:  My ever-junk-accumulating bulletin board; a necklace that I love but only goes well with white; new Zit's collection!  I love that comic; thanks MawMaw for these cute and comfy flip flops I got for free; Skoshi looking out the window on a rainy day.

As the caption says, My NEW Sitting Area.  The one on the top, obviously, I did, and the one on the bottom is an actually photo that is not photo edited a lot.  What do you think?

Oop, gotta go really fast.  I sorta kinda forgot to clean my room.  (oops.  my bad.)

Too Much

Teachers still fight a losing battle against students

In the bowels of a building, deep down in the stomach of a beast, lies a school that is almost completely undisturbed at any hour of the day.  At least, usually....

The students of SHAPE Academy (a prestigious but small school of less than 75 students) can sometimes be found, not doing their assigned schoolwork, but endeavoring in a much more dubious affair.  For, as our reporter says, the persons taking part in this mischievousness (who wish to be unnamed for the sake of their reputation) have a certain love of hand sanitizer that may be quite questionable.  The class, as one student says, is divided undisputedly: to toy with the so called “Fly-G” and their good name, or to shield the clueless teacher’s books from airborne gel.

Several accounts point out obvious misuse of hand sanitizer.  A possibly exaggerated story says that one slightly loopy student once cover his/her desk in half an inch of pure GermX, letting it gloop onto a carpeted floor.  Supposedly, after the room was evacuated of gagging students and cleared of the nauseating fumes, the student claimed that he/she was simply cleaning his/her desk.  One teacher says that the mischief makers probably have the cleanest desks in the whole school.

Calling all friends!

Here's an idea...

I was thinking how some people collaborate to make awesome blogs, and how Blogspot is free.  Then I had a really, Really, REALLY awesome idea!  What if I got all my friends from all over the place, you know, you, some old friends from Germany and NJ, plus some new ones from TX and we made a super cool blog!  Basically, unlike me, you wouldn't have to post everyday or anything, in fact we might think up a schedule like you only do it on "your" day every 20 days or so.  Of course, I would need your help to coordinate the whole thing, and we would need parents permission and all that.  We would make are own account (so people don't know my password) and then I could get it set up, real easy.  I got the experience with Blogspot, you guys have the original ideas and all that.  It should be pretty easy to do and keep up if every one does their part.  You wouldn't even have to write about a particular idea, but it would kinda be sorta half blog/half  forum for anything.  Homeschoolers, military kids, complaints about siblings/parents, advice, art/fashion tips, anything you can think of and you can post it!  What do you think?  We could use my email (I'd set it up) but make a new account.  I should probably wait for your answer before I think about account names.  My mom is SUPERfine with the idea, by the way.  Please!?

This plea is calling all friends under 15 who read this EVER (I mean no offense adults).  Please, please, please contact me if you want to join.

Oop, gotta go!  Mom is pressing me into service to cook dinner.

Small pets please!

I have recently started to
Consider getting a new pet.  Skoshi, my dog, is still young and spritely, but my cat is over 70 in cat years and no fun.  I especially am considering dumbo rats, because of their intelligence and size.  Smaller than a guinue pig, which I always thought looked like a sized-down fluffy elephant, but bigger than a mouse or rat.

Allow me dispel one of the thoughts I'm sure are bouncing around in your head.  Rats, if bought from any pet store or breeder, are not disgusting, filthy rodents.  While I'm on the subject, rats prefer to be very clean; I've read that they'll also clean you if you're not as squeaky clean as they are (no pun intended).  Anyway, you will probably not see a store bought rat climbing out of the sewers, randomly chewing through walls, or eating babies's toes.  I once rat-sitted for my best friend's rats, christened Olivia and Penelope.  Whenever I say this, the conversation goes something like this:

Them:  You took care of a friend's RATS!?  For a WEEK? (disgusted glare)
Me:  They were very clean rats.  And it was a good friend.  (roll eyes)
T:  Um, are you sure you don't have...I dunno...bubonic plague or something?
Me:  I think I would know if I had bubonic plague.
T:  Uh-huh.  (walk away)

Ok, maybe not quite like that, but close.

Anywho, this is my silent e-plead that somebody out there (specifically some one reads my blog) has the information  I need to a) take care of my small pet (if I get one) b) convince my Dad to LET me get one.  Anybody who has ANY experience with gerbils, rats, dumbo rats, pet rabbits, basically ALL small rats.

Wondrously Wet Blue

Hi there.
Posting on your blog after a long day of school, errands, chores, piano, and three hours of free time reading (two twenty chapter books, 12 pt. font no less) is surprisingly refreshing.  I like it, because it gives me time to unwind, let go of the days troubles before getting re-caught up in them.

I have another mood board for you, and I have no clue what to call it.  How 'bout

Burning Red

I'm so sorry!
I can't believe that I missed like a week of postings, which, btw, totally screwed my whole 60 day streak thing.  Actually, I was hoping to get to a 100 streak.  Speaking of a hundred, My first 100 posts took about 15 months to do.  Estimations say (under the impression that posts will be daily from now on) that post number 200 will be on the 15th of April.  Hows that for an increase?  Of course, that's kinda because of International Blogging Day, I did about 12% of my total posts ever in one day when I did that.  So without IBD, it'll take me about 25 days longer to do another 100 posts, so... I estimate it'll take about 120 days, or 4 months.  Let's say my hope is to have 300 posts by August 15.  Of course, you have to take into account the fact that I'm moving in between now and then, which could push back the deadline by as much as 2 months.  If I remember correctly, I posted 4 times in the 2 months surrounding my move from NJ to Texas.  On the other hand, I didn't know how to schedule posts then so this time will be different.  This is a REALLY long paragraph.

Now to the reason why I labeled this post "Burning Red".  I got  a new app on my Google Drive (a completely free, no ad online drive...all you need is a google account (which is also completely free).  Anyway, it's run by Loupe.com.  It's awesome for making family photo boards, custom collages, etc.  Including mood boards!  If you want to see more loupe-collages, click on this link.  This one I call...well I don't have a name for it, but here's a couple good ones.

Here's the photo (finally).  Enjoy!  I have to clear out of here, so the photo will be the last thing in this post.  Toodles!  Oh, and if you want to see any photos full-screen, just click on them.
