Fangirl Blast: Ahsoka Tano!

As requested...this lovely Fangirl post will be about the amazing Ahsoka Tano!!!  

Now...Ahsoka is from the fantastic TV show Star Wars: The Clone Wars....so if you don't read about or watch TCW you probably won't understand this post.  XDD  If you don't get it, or you don't like Ahsoka, tune in next week, when I'll be writing about an Original Trilogy character. :)

Character:  Ahsoka Tano

Fandom:  Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Facts:  Ahsoka is a Torgrutan Jedi.  She hails from the beautiful world of Shili and is a padawan under the Chosen One, Anakin Skywalker.  Ahsoka was given the nickname "Snips" by her Master, because her snippy, easy-going attitude proved her deserving of such a name.  She has grown as a character and as a Jedi throughout the four seasons of TCW, and so far Ahsoka is a very popular character among both girls and boys.

What I like about her:  Ahsoka is AMAZING!  She's one of my favorite characters!  She has amazing character development, and as a teenage girl around Ahsoka's age...she's easy to relate to and fun! :) I love the style of her design...she's so PRETTY!  And I love how sarcastic/sassy she is...and her and Anakin's relationship.  ;)

What I don't like about her:  Hmm....I don't know!  XD  I love Ahsoka a lot.  I love how she really learns and grows throughout the show.  I can't think of any negative points about her. 

What I wish did/didn't happen:  I really really hope that Ahsoka doesn't die.  XD  or at least...if she DOES die, I hope it's doing something MEGA HEROIC!  :D 

Pairings/Shippings:  Okay...*cringes waiting for the hate comments*  Rex and Ahsoka.  HEAR ME OUT.  I think that if Ahsoka WERE to fall in love, Rex would be the logical choice....over....say....Lux Bonteri.  :P  Rex is sweet and caring (as many episodes have proved) and he has a real HEART. :)  Ahsoka and Rex both share many character traits, and I could see them as a couple.  Plus, I'm a sucker for Jedi/Clone romance after writing Reaching For The Stars.  ;)

Favorite Quote:  "This is where the fun begins!"  "Always in time to save your life Skyguy." "I Did! You know, when i told you about the giant wall, and you said "oh no snips we arent' going anywhere NEAR THAT!'"  "CHECK FOR A PULSE!!!" (hehe)

Fanfics:

A Not So Normal Week:  You need to read these fanfics.  They are beyond hysterical, and they feature all our favorite TCW characters!!!!!!!  ;)  Including Ahsoka!!!  XDD

Secrets and Trust:  This one is GREAT.  My good friend Alyna wrote it.....and it's AWESOME!!!!!!!!! :D  I love it!!!!!!  Probablyone of the most AMAZING Ahsoka fics out there!!!!!!

After the Storm:  AHH AMAZING!  I'm working on reading the sequel....and one of my best friends, Inksaber, wrote this one!  I read it before I knew her and felt incredibly starstruck meeting her.  XDD  It is amazing!!!!!!!  :D  I love it!  ;)  EVERYONE read it!  :D

Masquerade:  OAHHHAHAHH ONE OF THE BEST REXOKA FANFICS EVER OUT THERE PERIOD END OF STORY OH MY GOSH ITS AMAZING.  :D  Everyone should read this one......it's just perfect.  :D  Rexoka though....so chill out!  XDD

Shadows of Shili:  One of my AMAZING BESTEST SISTAHS EVER, JediKnightGirl (or Tara) ;)  wrote this story!!!!!!  It's still in the works, and it is just AMAZING!  I love it to pieces, and can't wait for her to continue it!  :D

Okay....so completes this lovely post!  ;)  Enjoy, and please comment your thoughts!!!!  :)  The next character I shall fangirl over will be a Star Wars Original Trilogy character.  :)

Thanks everyone!

Are You Ready...

For a Fangirl Blast?!?  ;)

What's a Fangirl Blast you ask?  (hehe, rhymes....) Well, a Fangirl Blast is a Blogger "game" I suppose you could say.  ;)  Once a week I'll pick a character from a favorite movie of mine.  It might be a Disney movie, or a Star Wars movie, or a different movie all together.  I'll review the movie, and then I'll do a mini character-break-down!!!  I'll post what I love and what I hate about the character....what pairings I ship....details and other things that I love/like/hate.....and then tons of pictures! :)

These will come out every Wednesday probably...and will be a new trend on my blog!  :)  You are all free to submit characters.  This will be mirroring (but not copying, don't worry) Savanna's Character Discussions from Pandas, Lightsabers and Cameras, oh my!!.  She's brilliant, you should check out (and follow) her blog!!!!!!!  :)

Now...for this post...I'll start out with..........................Mara Jade-Skywalker.

Shocker.  XD  Seriously, I LOVE Mara!!!!!!!  So....we'll enjoy some Mara stuff now.  ;)

Character:  Mara Jade-Skywalker

Fandom: Star Wars Expanded Universe

Facts:  Mara Jade-Skywalker is one of the EU (Expanded Universe)'s main characters.  She becomes one of our heroes....Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Leia Organa by the end of the Thrawn Trilogy.  Mara has seen pretty much all walks of life.  Raised to do Emperor Palpatine's dirty work as the "Emperor's Hand", and then left on her own to make a name for herself, Mara Jade becomes an employee of Talon Kardde, and eventually gets into trouble with our original trilogy gang.  After ten years of friendship, (which is good, considering at first Mara simply wanted him dead) Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade got married.  (8DDD <333).  She joined the New Jedi Order officially, and became the Jedi Master of Jaina Solo later on.  Mara Jade-Skywalker had an unfortunate (ahem....stupid, needless...why was it written?!??) end to her life by a certain Darth Cadeus.  She still lives on in the memories of her family (AND ME).

What I like about her:  I like just about everything about Mara!!!!!  She's so EPIC!  She's kick-butt as a Jedi, Smuggler, and the Emperor's Hand.  Her character is really complex, and minus the "I wanna kill everyone" thing, she's a lot like me.  I love Mara....I have ever since I read the Thrawn trilogy.

 

What I don't like about her:  SHE DIES.  I hate that she dies.  XD  I also hate that it takes her and Luke ten flipping years to get their act together!  ;P

Something I wish did/didn't happen:  I wish that they (they meaning the profic authors) had included Mara in more stories....given her and Luke more time together, and eventually her and Ben (and Luke) more time together.  I kinda hate that they are ALWAYS fighting for their lives.  JUST GIVE THEM A BREAK, OKAY??? xD

Pairings/Shippings:  LUKE/MARA LUKE/MARA LUKE/MARA LUKE/MARA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3

Favorite Quote:  "As long as I'm fighting, I'm not dying."  "Trust me, my capacity for mayhem is undiminished."  "Wait, I'll come with you" (that one's just iconic for me. XD)

Fanfics:  Mara Fanfics?  Oh I don't know.......*sarcasm sarcasm*

Fireworks of the Soul:  VERY LUKE MARA HEAVY.  It's a bunch of one-shots dedicated to them.  ;)

First Kiss:  OH MY FORCE.  Bestie, JediKnightGrl wrote this one, and IT MADE ME SQUEAL LIKE A LITTLE GIRL.  ;)  SO SWEET and SO EPIC!  :D

Mara Jade-Skywalker's Deadbook Page:  Funniest thing EVER.  XD  Written as if Mara had a "Deadbook" (instead of Facebook) where she writes from the 'beyond'.  XDD

Jewels:  Oneshot by my very very good friend Endor.  ;)  This story is SUPER SWEET!!!!!  :D

Shattered Remembrance:  OH MY GOSH.  EPIC!!!!  Sad, sweet, sad, sweet!!!!  AWESOME!!!!!!!  Luke and Mara.  ;)

I, Mara Jade:  Probably one of my all-time favorite fics.  ;)  It's just.....AMAZING.  Seriously, I love this story to pieces.  I've read it a billion times.  Go check out this author's stories...they all feature Mara and are all AMAZING!  :D

Okay....enough ranting about my FAVORITE CHARACTER EVERRR!!!!!!!! :D

Thanks for reading everyone!!!  I'll be trying to post these every week, starting tonight!  :D  Feel free to submit characters, they don't have to be just from Star Wars too!  :D

Is it really the Last Week of October?

Seriously?  Part of me is eager for November, and the other part of me is dreading it.  XDDD

Huh.  Well, I'm gonna give you all a quick update before I get to the 'point' of this post.

First thing:  I will be disappearing for the month of November.  It is fact (~Tenel Ka).  But do not fret!!!  I have a few good ideas that will get through the month and still have a few posts out there.  ;)

Second thing:  I am happy.  We are playing Christmas (and Hanukkah) music in orchestra.  I had a bizarre smile on my face during "The First Noel".  XDDDDD  All I could think about was the holiday season.  ;)

Third thing:  I went treasure hunting on Saturday, and got 64 action figures and action hero toys for only $15!!!  :)

There are two layers of action figures, so there are more than there appear to be. ;)

Love this shot!  (XD literally) 

CUTEST. ACTION FIGURE. EVER.

YODA.  Y-O-D-A.  YODA!

Now....

I have a new 'obsession'.  XD  Yes.  Yes I do.  Wanna know what it is?

Rogue.  Squadron.

Oh my word, I am in LOVE with the Rogues!!!!!  :D

Hobbie, Tycho, Wedge, Corran, and Wes especially.  ;)  Hobbie is MINEEEEE.  <333

Art from here: source

Also.....CORRAN HORN.  I have just discovered the AMAZING that is Corran.  ;)  And MIRAX!  OH MY WORD, MIRAX TERRIK HORN IS SO COOL!!!!!!  I love her!!!!  Maybe not as much as I love Mara....but she's coming to be a close second!  :D

Mirax Terrik-Horn

Corran Horn.  source

Who doesn't love X-Wings????  They're iconic and just AWESOME!!!!  :)  I am soooo addicted to this series.  I read the first X-Wing: Rogue Squadron book on Audio Book, and am now starting the second in paperback.  ;)  I'm also reading I, Jedi (which stars Corran Horn and Mirax Terrik-Horn) and it is FANTASTIC.  :)

Humnahumnahumnah.....Hobbie......Corran.....**dies**  <3333

Okay, okay.  That's enough fangirling for now...I'm going to read some stuff for school, and then maybe work on a fanfic, time permitting.  ;)  

Goodnight my lovlies,

My Emotions While Reading Fanfiction....

In Pictures and GIFs.  ;)

Yup....that about covers it.  I'm off to read a fanfic marked with the 'Tragedy/Angst' categories.  :D  See the seventh picture from the bottom to see how I will be feeling/did feel while reading that fic.  ;)

Love y'all!!!!!!  Hope you liked the pictures, I DON'T OWN ANY OF THEM!!!!!!!

P.S. Some of these pictures aren't working.  Click to enlarge them, and you'll see the movement of the GIF.  ;)

A Reason to Celebrate....

Guess what I pre-ordered and got a day before it was even released in stores?????

:D  Choices of One is a GREAT book!  I'm only on Chapter 4 and I already LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  :D  I'm glad it's worth it, I mean....it's my allowance for the next two months.  XD  That book was $30.  :P


Another reason to celebrate......

Guess where I'm going to be in exactly one week???

:D  :D  :D  I'm so excited.  SO SO SO excited.  XD  I do believe that I will be doing a post every day until I go to Disney World, because I will have NO WI-FI the entire time I'm on vacation.  I WILL be able to check my emails from my phone, so if you need me, try there.  ;)


I have more reasons to celebrate.  xD

I've gotten 35 reviews so far on my fanfic, Reaching for the Stars.  :D  I'm so excited about that too!!!!!!  Reviews are like comments, they make me SMILE.  :D  Inksaber, or StarWarsArtist from The Lakehouse Forums always leaves funny/long(ish) comments, and I love the way she writes reviews.  :)  Ley also writes nice reviews.  xD  *hugs reviewers*
Reaching for the Stars  <<  That's chapter 1.  If you care to read it.  ;)  I've written the ENTIRE thing, but I've only gotten about 16 chapters up.  I'm updating every day.


CeLeBrAtE rEaSoN nUmBeR fOuR:

This is my song.  :)  I love it.

Now, until next time, God Bless, May the Force be with you, and have a Disney Day!!!!!

Fangirling, Meme, and catching up AGAIN!

AGH!!!  I've been busy yesterday and I forgot to do the fangirl wah and meme.  xD 

OOH!!!!!  Tis offical, I have a new blog!!!!!  :D  Here is the link: The Kindling Of The Flame
I got the name from Johnny Tremain, the movie.  At the end, Cilla says, "Oh johnny, I'm so glad it's over," and James Otis says something to the effect of, "Oh but it is not over, it is just the beginning, only the kindling of the flame."  I KNOW he said Kindling of the Flame though, and because that left such an impact on me, I decided to use that as my blog name.  :)

Anyway, onto more/other things........

Day 6 Meme:  Favorite Political Entity
Ooh, this is easy.  The Rebel Alliance.  I LOVE THEM!!!!!  They have Luke, and Leia, and Han, and Wedge, and SO MANY OTHER AWESOME PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!  Thanks to the Rebel Alliance I am the fan I am today!  :)

Day 7 Meme: Favorite Creature
Hmm.....I like lots of creatures.  I think my favorite is the Kowekian Monkey Lizard.  I have one......her name is Lilac and she is purple and blue........hehe.....Lakehouse girls will know what I'm talking about.  xD 

Okay, now for the fangirl WAH.  :P  Yesterday was Swoon Worthy Guys, and I don't remember what today's is......

Anyway......yeah.  :P

Today my family is going to the local animal shelter.  We've been doing this fundraiser that my sister started all by herself called Dog Squad.  We've collected TONS of donations over the past month, and we're finally taking it to the shelter today.  ;)  It's amazing!  I'll post pics soon!!!!  :D  I'm hoping to bring something home from that shelter,.......but my mom already said no.  :(  Aww.....maybe she'll change her mind.......XD  I wish!!!

Anywho, I'll be around.....but I'll be working on Abigail Adams today.  GO TO THAT LINK AT THE TOP OF THIS POST!!!!  I'm so proud of it.  :)  LOL!

OH!  And one more thing, I love fanfiction.  I'll be updating my page later.  I have one author who I'm like the ONLY person who reviews her stories.  She wrote me a personal note in her bio page and I was so excited!  It made me feel so good.  ;)  Aww. 

Alright, I've got to go.....ttyl!  XD

Love,
Jedi~Chick <33
