Love you all!!!!!!!  

Beautiful People August Edition

I skipped July's and can't find it (or am too lazy to find it I should say) so I'll just do August's Beautiful People!!!!

In all out honesty, I am running out of characters to do this on.  XD  I'll do this one on Cassie (has-no-last-name-yet) from a story that will most likely be my NaNoWriMo novel this year....it's in the planning stages, preparing for November.  :)
Cassie lives/lived in the Everglades of Florida.  Rural everglades, away from civilization.  ;)  So...yeah...I was inspired by Totch Brown who lived in the Everglades on the island Chokoloskee, in Florida.  ;)  Okay, so on with the rest of the post.  ;)

1. What is their biggest accomplishment?
Cassie's biggest accomplishment was when she caught a bigger alligator than her brother, all by herself.  XDD

2.  What is one of their strongest childhood memories?
Probably Momma reading Cassie and her twin brother (who doesn't have a name yet btw) stories by the fire before bed.  :)

3.  What is their favorite food?
Raccoon.  XD  LOL what do people living in the Everglades eat??? :P  Just kidding, probably fish.  XD  I don't know my seafood though, so more research is needed on that subject. ;)

4.  Do they believe in love at first sight?
Uhh....probably not.  She's a tom-boy, all seriousness, tough girl, who doesn't give men/boys a second thought.  ;P

5.  What kind of home do they live in?
A small cabin in the middle of the Everglades, almost 100 miles from any civilization.  The cabin was made by her parents and grandparents, long before she was born.  No A/C, no indoor plumbing, no electricity.  O.O

6.  What do they like to wear?
Usually pants and shirts, with her boots.  Sometimes she'll wear a long skirt like her mother's, but it is not often.  :P

7.  What would they do if they discovered they were dying?
Two things.  Tell her parents and brother she loved them, and then go swimming in the Everglades.  ;)  She'd want to die in the Everglades, because they are her life, and she loves them more than anything.  :)

8.  What kinds of holidays or traditions do they celebrate?
Fishing/Tourist seasons!  Haha!  Christmas, Thanksgiving, birthdays, etc.  But they aren't as extravagant as we do them.  ;)

9.  What do your other characters have to say about her?
Her twin (unnamed) brother is really nice to her, since they're all each other has, and they are best friends.  Later on in the story more 'modern' characters come into play, and they think she's crazy, weird and very out-doorsy.  xD

10.  If they could change one thing in their world, what would it be? 
Probably to stop water pollution and to keep people out of the Everglades, like, to stop building on the Everglades, and let it stay natural.  ;)  No one needs to 'fix' God's perfect design.  ;)

Well that was fun!!!!!!  :D
Okay, it's now almost 11:00pm, so I'm going to log off, finish watching this TV show with my sister, possibly watch some Clone Wars and be done for the night.  ;)
Love you all!!!!
*hugs*

Back Into The Swing Of Things...

Today was the first day of dance.  Oh. My. Word.  xD

It is going to be a long (and fun) year.  :P  I am helping in TWO classes this year, and taking only one.  xD
I'm helping the main teacher/owner of the studio(s).  I've known her for years, and my family is good friends with her, so I'm glad to help out, and she's super nice.  The little girls are awesome.  I know four of them already, and I can tell that we will have a lot of crazy fun this year.  XD

Moms stop me in the studio, or parking lot, or restaurant down the street and tell me what a good job I'm doing helping, or saying thank you, or if they had me last year, hugging me and asking me how my summer was.  xD

My Jazz class is really cool.  I am the oldest girl there.  *facepalm*
The teacher is really, really nice, but I can tell that she's tough, and going to push us.  I know a few girls in the class, some as friends, others acquaintances, and others just by name or their face, because they are /not as nice/.  :P

I met a nice girl in the class though, who is around a year younger (but several inches taller...), and she's been dancing as long as I have.  This is her first year back to Jazz after a while too, so we'll catch up together.  Especially if Chibi decides to not come with me.  >.>

Anyway, dance means that we're now getting back into the school year.  O.O
I am SO not ready.  xD  I've been reading science, and practicing my viola (like crazy!) but I'm kinda nervous for this year.  :P  I'm going into high school.....so it's  big deal.  And the program we're using is very involved and very big, and I have a LOT of work to do.  I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up with everything (both in 'real life' and the internet.).

Pray for me.....I have an orchestra audition next week, and I'm honestly terrified.  XD  I am getting better at my song, but I still am scared.  I always clam up in front of the judges.  And cameras.  xD

Well folks, sorry for the short post, but I'm going to /try/ and get caught up on Blogger and probably Beautiful People too.  xD  I think I missed last month's.....anyway, that post will probably be up later.  I just had to post about dance, because I was excited/tired.  :D

Love you!

Ember Sparkstone's Guide to Being Fully Awesome and Fully True To Thine Own Self

A Guest Post by The Amazing Ember Sparkstone.

EMBER SPARKSTONES GUIDE TO BE…

FULLY AWESOME

AND

FULLY TRUE TO THINE SELF

By: Chibi*Chick (AKA EMBER SPARKSTONE)

Edited by: Jedi Chick(AKA my cuz)

Intro: This is passage to fully elucidate a commoner on how to exponentiate a reasonable knowledge on how to be true to thine own self in way that will enlighten ones brain in a way that would be so called “awesome”.

I. Break out singing whenever possible at random times.

II.        Skip around your house whistling absolutely nothing.

III.      Invent random things in your mind or on paper that absolutely no one will know about!

IV.        Collect anything you desire!!!  Keep it in a box. A  shoebox.

V. Hang upside down and imagine what life would be like if you lived in an upside down world.

VI.         Brush all your stuffed animals daily.  They deserve care too!!

VII.      Draw as often as possible, even if you aren’t that good, because someday it might be the new style…..stick figures. 

VIII.    String a bunch of paperclips together and create an entire line of Paper Clip Jewelry. 

IX.         Do the sound effects for everything you do during the day.  In the car: VROOOOOOMMMMMM.  Trip and fall:  AHHHHHHH KERSPLAT.

X. Play outside in the rain, and pretend you’re a raindrop.

XI.        Whenever someone asks whether they have something on their face look horrified then say, “No, you’re good!” with a smile on your face.

XII.      Make things fit for fairies!

XIII.    Stare at someone intently until they ask what’s wrong.  Tell them: “You’ve got something on your head!!!” and look afraid. When they check and ask if they got it, walk away nonchalantly. 

XIV.      Whenever someone asks you a question tell them “ The voices require me to say no/yes.

XV.        Gather up your nerves and try to make some new imaginary friends.

XVI.      Force people to call you by your pirate name.

XVII.    Only respond to people who call you by your pirate name.

XVIII.  Put a temporary tattoo over your belly button and show it to all and every one who comes within ten feet of you.

XIX.      Watch a rerun of your favorite TV show, but mock everything that happens to the characters in it.

XX.        When in the shopping mall, start to search around for your family (even though they’re right next to you) and have an extremely lost look on your face.

If you do these things, you are guaranteed to be awesome.  And true thine own self.  

BE SMART!!!!  FOLLOW MY ADVICE!!!!!  Or you will be a loser.  So sad.  I KNOW!  I have done these things myself, so I know them to be true.  I wish you luck!  May the Force of the Pirate Ninjas be with you all!!!!!!!

Guess What?!

I had such a fun day!!!!!!!!!  Tuesday forward has been SOOO MUCH FUN!!!!

I have JediKnightGrl (or Tara as we call her on TLF) to thank for Tuesday Night's awesome-ness.  ;)  She and I were having a Fangirl war over Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice.
P&P is now my new favorite movie.  ;)  *cough Thanks To Ley cough*   xDD

I am in LOVE with Mr. Darcy!!!!!!  Apparently Tara is too....XD  LOL!!  *hugs*

Anyway, so we had a blast at 2am fangirling to our hearts contents.  ;)  After being upset over something earlier, it was a great way to lift my spirits.  ;)  I read her blog post this morning, and it literally made me happy just reading it.  XD

The next day (Wednesday...)  I got the best surprise present EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A five dollar lamp.
....
without a lightbulb.
....

Seriously.  Nothing wrong with the lamp, but I felt kinda cheated when my sister got a $30 dollar doll and I got a $5 dollar lamp with no lightbulb.  :P

But that was all fixed!!!!!!!!  I was kinda upset and in a bad mood because I had evil writers block, and then my dad came home from work and made my WEEK!!!!!!!!

GUESS.  WHAT.  I.  AM.  WEARING.  ????????????

CLICK HERE  I love the name the link says, "Luke Boyfriend Tee".  XDD  *squeals*

OH MAH GOODNESS I WAS SO HAPPY.  I AM STILL SO HAPPY.  :DDDDDD

See.  So happy.  ;)  Happy face.  xDDDD  LOL!

(FULL BODY PIC HERE)

Wow.  My hair looked GREAT that day.  :)  LOL!!!  xD

Gahh not the best picture of me.  XD  :P  Oh well, it shows off my t-shirt!!!!  :D  I was so thrilled that I got a HU shirt.....I AM SO THRILLED I GOT ANOTHER HU SHIRT!!!  XDDD

Btw, I'm not meaning to brag or anything, I'm just really, REALLY excited.  ;)

Now, Chibi is sleeping over and we're watching National Treasure 2.  Correction. It's midnight and I'M watching National Treasure 2.  Alone. XD  Everyone's asleep.  :P

My family played poker, quarters, black jack and a few other card games tonight, and it was SO MUCH FUN!!!!!  I felt like I was part of the Solo family.  XDDD My AU happy Solo Family.  ;)

My mom and dad seriously think they're Han and Leia Solo. It's almost funny.  :)  I'm enjoying it though, because my mom likes Star Wars with me!  LOL!

Also, I watched Lord of the Rings today!  With Chibi!!!!  We both LOVED it.  (well, what we saw so far, it's a LOOOOONG movie. xD)  so we're gonna finish it tomorrow morning, then I'll have a lovely viola lesson before the summer is over.  And maybe we'll go bowling.  Because bowling is awesome that way.  xDDD

LOTR was AMAZING.  AH-MAZE-ING.  :3  Here's a link to the post I just did on it: CLICK HERE.  ;)
Feel free to browse that.  xD  I was teaching myself new skills.  ;)

Also, before I go, I wanted to tell you that tomorrow expect a new Blog game from me and the amazing Ember Sparkstone!  :)  Ember has teamed up with me to do a Blog Game post for y'all.  I hope you'll find it as fun as we have!  :D

Love you all tons,

TWO Blog Awards!!!!

Hehe, I've been kinda dead to the Blogger World the past few days.  :P  Sorry.  xD  I'm back now!  I've been kinda busy.....;P

Point being, it's time for me to do some Blog Awards from my good friend Voronda Elda-Aranel from A Believers Journey.

Time to pass these along!  ;)

First, the Friends Tag:

1. Take the award, and link back who tagged you.  :)
2.  Write about what you think a friend is.  ;)
3.  Write about YOUR friends.  Either in 'real life' or on the internet.  :)
4.  Thank your friends.  ;)
5.  Post some friend pictures and tag four other bloggers/friends.  ;)

Okay.....
A friend is someone who knows everything about you, and still LOVES you.  ;)  A friend is there for you through thick and thin, and even though you don't always agree, they still are there.  And they still care about you and love you.  ;)  A friend is someone who knows how to cheer you up, make you cry, and make you laugh all at the same time.  :D

I have many friends.  God has blessed me with many friends!  :)
My best friends are my cousin Chibi, and my homeschool friend Maryanna.  ;)  I love both of them so much.  We can talk about anything, and then suddenly be bored together for hours on end.  XD  They're awesome.  Maryanna's sister is another great friend, along with Annabeth (not her real name) and Luke (not his real name xD)  Also good friends.  ;)
My internet friends......well that's another story.  ;)

Leia is one of my absolute BEST internet friends.  :)  I love her SO much.  We rant and talk about everything and anything.  :)  She is how I discovered my most recent obsession....Pride and Prejudice.  :)

Amaranthine is another one of my best Blogger friends.  I don't know what I'd do without her.  :)  She's hilarious, awesome and very fun.  *hugs*

Endor is so amazingly awesome.  We talk constantly.  I love her like a sister.  ;)  She is older than me, but we still get along PERFECTLY.  I can't wait until we meet someday Endor!  xD

Satine and I are a lot alike, and a lot different.  She is incredibly fun though, and we talk about all sorts of things on TLF.  ;)  (also, i did her blog design!)

JediKnightGrl is probably one of my best internet friends.  :)  She is super sweet, HILARIOUS (as last night when we were both on TLF at 2am proved), and she knows me better than I know myself.  XD  Love you girl!!!  :)

(BTW: These are the people I'm awarding.  If they are linked, they are being awarded.  Who cares if it says four?!?)

Rachel QueenKarina is another TLF sister.  She's fun, silly, easy to talk to, and super sweet.  :)  She and I have a lot in common, and I love talking with her! :)

Cad Bane's Chick is my twin separated at birth.  We have nearly EVERYTHING in common.  I can't wait to meet her in a year.  XD  There will be such screaming, hugging, and fangirling we will scare everyone at the homeschool convention!!!!  :P  *hugs*  XD

Jamie Joyce is one of my best blogger friends too!  :D  She's fun, loves Star Wars, loves Disney and Princess stuff, and she's got an amazing blog.  :)

4.  I am obsessed with Pride and Prejudice.  Mr. Darcy is ruling in my heart now......even over Luke a little bit!  O.O
5.  Most of the things I write are 'dramaful' or 'angsty'.  And I don't want anyone reading the ones that aren't fanfiction.  :P
6.  My capslock key sometimes breaks.  Sometimes it sticks to the board and it looks like I'm screaming when I'm talking to someone.  XD  Ley knows.  ;)

And now my friends, I take my leave.....*hugs*

Thanks for everything y'all!  I'll be back with a better post later.  ;)

Love,

**is happy**

I feel inspired.

I don't really know why, but I do. xD

(my deviantART ID)

I'm happy.  ;)  My family had a nice long shopping trip today, going to the 'fish place' (hunting and fish outlet, Bass Pro shop) today, to get stuff to keep stocked for Hurricane Season.  I hope we can go back out later....I love going places.  xD
I saw tons of camping gear, and my sister and I are planning our first ever camping trip.  We're thinking maybe late November or January/February time....seeing today's heat index topped at 110 degrees.  O.O
...............
I feel dance-y.  xD  This song is helping that dance-y feeling.

(and just for the record, I LOVE this show. xDDD)

I was very excited yesterday because the teacher I have helped in dance class for the past two years called.  xD  Sadly, our (mine and Chibi's) tap class is cancelled.  :'(  Tap is our favorite class.  Pray that either the schedule changes again, or that we can do Jazz this year and she'll do it with me!  :P

My sister and I have been dancing a lot.  xD   She'll come in my room and just dance around.  A. She's adorable that way.  and B. she's incredibly flexible and can slide right on into a split without a problem.  Then she shifts from a right split to a straddle split, to a left split.  I cringe.  xD

.............

I've been writing.  I LOVE writing.  xD  I'm working on the Sequel to Reaching For The Stars right now, and it's really fun to write.  :D  Plus, Ley gave me the link to a 'Character Creator' on DeviantART, so I created my girl OCs from the story!  :D  I'll post Ember Sparkstone, since she's my favorite.  xDD

(is that not awesome?!?  XDDD  Source )

.................

I've been reading.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE L.O.V.E. Allegiance by Timothy Zahn.  I highly recommend it.  ;)  I'm enjoying it so much!  I am in love with Daric LaRone.  (character people...I'm in love with the character...not like how I am with Luke Skywalker either. xD)  

The whole book is so much fun.  I flipped out (literally, I jumped off my bed and ran around my room 'happy-dancing') twice while reading.  Once because I read part of a Mara chapter somewhere before, and I was all excited that I knew what was going on.  XDD   

And again because PINK FIVE WAS IN THE BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!  I think I nearly screamed.  XDD  Pink Five, or Stacey, from the Pink Five saga of Fanmovies, was in the book, flirting with Han Solo.
As someone who 'role-played' Pink Five for a day, that was a big deal.  xD

.......................

I am re-doing all the pages on my blog.  :)  I just created a Luke and Mara page for my self, since I am so nuts about that couple.  xDDDD  I shall be adding to that today.  ;)
I'll be re-doing my 'Fanfiction Page' and posting links to my FAVORITE stories, and reviews of them.  :)
Check out my new pages!!!!  :D
.......................

Thank you all who commented on my interview with my mom.  XD  That's all she's asked since I published it, "Any more comments?"  XDDDD  
Here's another interview:  Interview with Ember Sparkstone on my blog
And another: Another Ember Interivew  from Amaranthine's blog.

Someday, Ember Sparkstone will be a famous, canon character.  And my lovely cousin Chibi will get all the credit, despite the fact that I 'invented' her.  XD
More about Ember you say?  Here's another link.  xD
The Amazing Adventures of Ember Sparkstone  Thought up by Chibi, written down by me.  :)  Chapter 2 was just loaded.  WARNING:  EXTREMELY RANDOM CONTENT INSIDE.

.....................

Well, that's all for now folks!  :D  I'll be back later with a better post.  XDDD

*hugs*

Interview with my Mom

This is the promised post y'all!!!  I interviewed my mom, and here is the result.  The slightly hilarious result, but the result!!!!!  :)


Jedi~Chick/Fallon: Hey Mommy!!!!  Okay, so I'm going to ask you a few questions.  :)
Mom: Okay

JCF: So, you're a homeschool mother.  What is your favorite subject to teach, and why?  Are there any subjects you don't like to teach?  (and not because of us, because it's hard for you.) :P

Mom:  This will be our fourth year homeschooling and so far I have enjoyed all of it, even math.  I am learning right along with you and your sister.  I realized just how weak my own education was.  Learning is a lifelong journey and it all depends upon your attitude.  My favorite subject to teach is geography, because it is what it is and I love earth sciences.  History gets more complicated because their are many viewpoints to learn and understand and think about.  Traditional view of history is to just memorize facts/dates.  I like for us to explore what people were thinking and feeling and putting ourselves in their shoes.  The hardest subject to teach is math (for you, not your sister).   But overall I love homeschooling.

JCF:  You're a Star Wars Fan!  That's Awesome!  Now what made you like Star Wars way back in '77 and why?  And what made you like it again? *waggles  eyebrows*  

Mom:  I was ten years old in 1977 when I saw Star Wars in the movie theatre, it was one of the rare times my whole family went to a movie.  I was hooked.  I remember one day when my mother (your grandma) was working and my brother and I spent the entire day in the movie theatre watching Star Wars over and over eating salt bagels, (I think Grandma didn't have a babysitter for us).  I liked everything about it. It was so new and different and I fell in love with the story and the characters.  I don't think I ever told you this story, I used to play "star wars" with a neighbor kid (I of course was Princess Leia), I used to pretend every white car was a stormtrooper and Darth Vader scared me (he seemed very very tall).  I continued to be a "fangirl" as you call yourself today well into my twenties. I even had a trading card of Han Solo in my wallet (but I started dating your father, so I replaced Han's picture with Daddy's).  Somewhere after that I lost touch with it, quite frankly their wasn't much new in the marketplace.  I read the books as they came out but after I had my first baby (that would be you) I lost track of it all together.  You know the sob story of me getting rid of all my star wars stuff (we won't go there, who knew.......).  What made me get back into it again?????  You.   Remember you didn't even like it when your little sister fell in love with Clone Wars.  It was your sister's thing and she and daddy had their "time" watching TCW on tv.  I didn't even pay attention to it either.  I got back into it during Celebration V last year.  I took you up as a surprise, doing it for you.  Quite frankly I was thinking  I was at a freak show, seeing all the people dressed up and all.  But after we went to one of the talks with Dave Filoni and I saw the passion and talent of the cast and crew and how Clone Wars was bringing families together, I had a new perspective.  After having the opportunity to watch you meet Ashley Eckstein, I thought now here is a wonderful role model for young girls like you and your sister.  I got to see the people behind the show and really see their passion and values and their hearts.  All good stuff.  

JCF:  You are one of the most faithful and spiritual people I know.  Do you have any favorite memory verses that inspire you?

Mom: Thank you.  I haven't always been.  My faith walk has been a wonderful incredible journey so far.  I have become a Bible-thumping Mama, raising my hands in praise  and singing at church. I love our Lord and I am so incredibly humbled by our King. I am so grateful I have a husband who loves our Lord with as much passion and we are raising you girls up knowing God's love and truth.  I have two favorite verses that I have memorized,  Proverbs 3:5-6 and Jeremiah 29:11.  I also like Ephesians 6:10-18 and Proverbs 31, but I don't have them memorized.  I'll let your readers look up the verses.

JCF:  Back on the topic of Star Wars, what is your favorite Star Wars Movie, Character, Book, and costume?  Sorry for so many questions, my readers MUST know!  :)

Mom:  I am an original trilogy fan.  I never got into the next movies (I don't even know what you would call them, the first movies, that came after the first trilogy which is really the second trilogy?). My favorite characters are Princess Leia and Han Solo.  I was so happy that Princess Leia and Han Solo fell in love.  Remember it took four years between movies for us to find out what happens.  The books were even later than that.  I don't have a particular costume that is a favorite.  I liked Leia's hairstyles.  I remember being excited to see that she was going to have a different hairdos.  As far as Star Wars books go, I've read a lot this summer.  I really enjoyed the Corellian Trilogy series as well as Tatooine Ghost, Balance Point, Star by Star, Rebel Stand, and The Unifying Force. (of course I only read the Han and Leia parts) I'm not going to read any of the other books right now.  I am content with the story arc and a great top-bottom connection that was made from Tatooine Ghost and The Unifying Force.  I'm satisfied.  

JCF:  Do you watch TCW? Do you like it?  What do you like about it?

Mom: Yes, we watch The Clones Wars as a family, I really like that.  I like Ashoka, she reminds me of your sister.  Padme reminds me of you.

JCF:   What is your favorite type of book to read?  What is the most recent book you've read?  Did you like it? ;)

Mom: The most recent were the Star Wars books I mentioned above. For escape I enjoy mysteries, in particular The Tea Shop Mysteries and The Beatrix Potter Cottage Mysteries.  I also read my Bible.  I read a lot of different material for homeschool to prepare for lessons. I also enjoy poetry, in particular Robert Frost and Robert Louis Stevenson.  I love the way words combine to create images in your mind.

JCF:  Who's your favorite kid, me or my sister.....LOL, I'm just kidding.  XD  What's your favorite part about homeschooling?  ;)

Your sister.  ok just kidding.  My favorite part of homeschooling is that I get to be part of watching you grow up.  We are a close knit family and I couldn't be happier. I also enjoy that we can slow-down and take our time with lessons, really getting into them as the spirit leads us.  I also like the fact that we all laugh a lot.  I like that your sister dresses up as a different character everyday.  I love that you and your sister are close. I love the freedom we have and that I can drink a cup of coffee in the morning without having to run out of the house.

MY SISTER?!?!!?  WHAT????   Ugh, never mind.  :P

JCF:   What inspires you?  What are the things that 'get you going' and make you feel happy and passionate?  ;)

Mom:  Jesus Christ, my saviour!  It all comes from him.  All our gifts, talents and passions are from God Almighty, what can be more humbling, exciting and inspiring.  Following God's path for me has been very exciting.  I just listen and follow.  Where he guides, he provides. 

JCF:  Will you give me an A on this interview?

No.  Actually you know how I feel about grades.  You either do the work to the best of your ability and then push yourself to do even better or you don't. Or as Yoda says, "Do or Do Not, There is no Try".  I think you are challenging yourself in your writing and that is what counts.  But getting back to grades, to me they are meaningless.  A student can get straight A's and not remember a thing.  I rather we not concentrate on "grades" but submerse ourselves into exploring our lessons, experiment, ask questions, take chances, get messy (Yes, I am Miss Frizzle and that is not a comment about my hair). 

*laughs*  It SHOULD be about your hair!!!!! xDDDD

JCF:   What are your plans for this new school year?  What are you most excited for, and what are you most eager to start?  

Mom: We are starting a new program called Tapestry of Grace. It will take us four years to complete.  It covers all subjects except science and math. We start at the beginning of human history and study God's thread in HIStory.  I'm looking forward to it.  We will fall into a routine once we get started.  We have a great deal of work ahead of us, but we will have fun.  I'm hoping to be able to take more mini-field trips this year.

JCF:  We all know you're a huge Disney fan.  What's your favorite thing about Disney?  Disney World, Disney Merchandise, Disney movies, etc.  Why?  

I'm actually blogging about this topic, however I haven't had time to write in my blog.  I greatly admire Walt Disney.  In fact I admire all those that dream the impossible and then make it happen.

JCF:  Han Solo.........nuff' said.   But what originally attracted you to this nerf-herder?  And why do you hate my Lukie so much?  xDD  Just kidding.  ;)

Mom: First off, what in the world is a Nerf-Herder?  I'm not sure I want to say what originally attracted me to Han Solo to my teenage daughter.  As far as Luke goes, Daddy and I are just fine with you having a crush on a fictional character.  Just ignore the tough cute guy with the fast ship.  Move along, Move along.

*falls on floor*  

........

*laughing hysterically, cries tears of hilarity* 

JCF:  What's your favorite song?  (I know the answer to this one.)  Don't tell me why.  XDDDD  

Mom: The Hokey Pokey, because that's what it's all about.  Ha, not the answer you thought I was going to give.

You've GOT to be kidding me.  xDDDDD  LIAR!!!!! LIAR!!!!!!!!  

JCF:  Last question.  Do you think it's a good thing I'm a blogger/forum-er/ on so many websites?  I know sometimes I drive you crazy, but do you think it's been a change for the good?  ;) 

Mom:  Overall it has been a very positive experience. You definitely have your Daddy's gift for talking.  You are a passionate person and have a great deal to say and you need to express yourself.  I'm happy that you are following your passions.  Keep listening to Jesus, he will guide you.  I know you will get your assignments completed and will also practice your viola (you are very talented).  As long as you keep your thoughts and actions with goodness, truth, and beauty you will go far. Be passionate, be humble, be respectful, be helpful, be yourself.  Don't ever let anyone tell you to be something else (not even your mother).  Be mindful of your need for sleep (it's not during school time).  I love you, God has wonderful plans for you. I can't wait to see where your paths lead you.  Thank you for taking the time to interview me!

Awww, thanks Mom!!!!!  :)  *hugs Mom*  Love you!!!

Now y'all can learn a little bit about my mom and even a bit about me!  LOL!  ;)  She's so awesome like that isn't she?  I love all the Star Wars stuff she put in there.....XDDD

Love you all!!!!!

A few Videos....

I was busy writing, reading and a few other things last night, but I took a break to play around with THIS:

*laughs hysterically*  XDDDDDD  OMG that was so weird...... :P  Just for the record, I am wearing a faded pink tank top.  XDDD  I look like I'm not wearing a top in some of those pics....I AM I PROMISE!!!!!!!!!
Whatever.  xDDD  Here's a better one.  :)

*sighs*  Oh, I like that one.  XDD  So much fun......My facial expressions are quite.....interesting.....xDDDD

That's it for now y'all.  ;)  I'll be doing a better post later!  I'm interviewing my momma! :D  Love y'all!

This post is a procrastination device......

I should really be finishing cleaning my room.

I should probably be doing the dishes, or practicing the viola, or laundry or something.

I most likely should not be blogging right now with so many other things to do....

BUT..........

I want to blog!  ;)

I'm watching Star Wars, A New Hope right now.  :)  I love that movie.  (Nooo, really?!?)  I do, I really do.

I have a few important things to blog about though.  XD

First and foremost, OhmigoshIaminlovewithAllegiancebyTimothyZahnitissogoodIstayedupuntil4:30am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you couldn't read that, I'll sum it up.  XD  I stayed up until 4:30am last night/this morning reading Allegiance by Timothy Zahn.  It is SOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I fell in love with it.  :)  I was just going to run through it quickly so I could read Choices of One in fuller understanding, but I couldn't do it!  It was too good!!!!!
I am in love (with the character) of Daric LaRone.  :)  He is SO KRIFFING AWESOME!!!!!!

The Stormtroopers in this book are so....different.  I used to think of the Stormtroopers as mindless Imperial servants who just shot blindly and were killed easily.  Now I don't think so.  The Hand of Judgement is the coolest thing since sliced bread.  And I think sliced bread is pretty darn cool.

Another thing, I got a bookshelf!!!
What?  What's wrong with being excited for a bookshelf?!?
I am quite excited about it, because my books pill out of every possible place in my room.  XD  So this is a big deal!  :D  I am now able to properly display all my books.  :)  I'll post a picture when my room is put back together.  XDD

I'm going to my friends Maryanna and I Heart Chewie (from TLF)'s house tomorrow!!!!  I'm excited for that. Whenever we get together, we have TONS of fun.  xD
Maryanna (the REAL Maryanna btw) has read Reaching For The Stars, my novel/fanfic, and the character of Maryanna is based off of her.  ;)  She and I have a lot of inside jokes about RFTS and the characters I write about.  XD  Now though, they're becoming more of characters than they are people. XDD

I played around with an avatar creator and made Mari from my book.  xD  Only, her lightsaber's green.  :P  It was just for fun.  And the picture's teeny.  :P


Well, that's all for now!  I'll be back later, with a better post.  XD

Farewell My friend!  I shall return!  xD

(something's weird with my video/picture uploading system.....so no signature.  :P)

Jedi~Chick AKA Fallon!  :)
