Halloween Party Pictures!

Hey howdy hey! I seem to have forgotten how to write proper intros so forgive me for my lack of creativity. XD I need someone to make a "How To Write Awesome Intros" post. Please. I'd pay you! A million spikes! A million spikey spikes!

Anywayyyy, I meant to have this posted way sooner but it slipped my mind... I blame EXO. They caused me to have a one week condition called Temposwoonatitus. It's a condition where a mind blowing comeback by amazing people gets released after quite a while and the comeback is beautiful and has footstomping melodies that you couldn't BELIEVE. I was literally stomping my foot a lot last Friday, mostly in a public park. True story!

Okay, what I mean to say is, my AJ Halloween party happened a week ago and I wanted to post the pictures from it! ^.^

Kudos to Chloe for helping me create my Alice Angel costume! What a gal! XD Everyone's costumes were great!

I honestly don't know what we're talking about! XD I think I got "oot for" explained to me but I forgetttt. *gives Ja puppy eyes* Help? c:

JA IS DRESSED AN AJ BLOGGER, JA. HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF HER? SHE'S EPIC! :D

(Also, don't worry, Vi's reading what a book is about, she's not saying she was bred for her beauty. XD)

*says in spooky voice* Oooooooooo, find the direwolf plushie in an incredibly haunted castle! C:<

OKAY, I WAS HIDING THE PLUSHIE. AND THEN I COME BACK AND THIS HAPPENED. XD

OKAY, I'M SORRY. BUT SWIRL CALLING JA "PEETA" IS HILARIOUS. XD

*looks at Ja again* Peeta. Come. Tell me what "oot for" means.

HAHA, I forgot I said that. I should say it more often. It'll be a little EXO-L joke or something. Or just a me joke. I don't know.

*car awkwardly vroom vrooms by*

Swirl won the prize for most creative costume! She was Katniss from The Hunger Games!

*joins Sarah in throwing mockingjay confetti*

LOOK AT CHLOE'S NAPSTABLOOK OUTFIT! We were doing a fashion show and the theme was ghost. She was the cutest ghost EVER. Blooky is my baby. <3

I'm in such a weird mood... aw, who am I kidding? I'm always weird. XD

LOOK! IT'S ALICE AND A GOOPY INK PERSON WHO HAPPENS TO BE SAMMY.

I had a good laugh when Sarah started saying "Sheep sheep, it's time to sleep." I don't even know whyyyy! XD

What terrifying monsters! Sarah's Sammy/ink guy is the best thing ever. XD

The last theme in the spooky fashion show was being a creepy stalker. Cuz those are the scariest monster of all.

Chloe's just chillin' and bein' a Hufflepuff spider queen. c: Normal, right?

AHH, SEE?!! CREEPY STALKERS ARE THE WORST. XD

And finally, a group picture! I have no clue what Alice is doing... o,O But Vi's pose cracks me up. XD She looks so glamorous as Edward from Twilight. :P

As always, I give a HUGE thank you to everyone who came:

Chloe Grace/Koolestkat

Swirlshine

It was a pretty small party but it was a perfect size! I got to talk to everyone, no one was left out. ;) I had a fabulous time and I hope everyone else did as well. <3

Have a stellar day and...

Jam on!

Comment call: How was your Halloween? What or who did you dress up as? 

The Random Animal Jam Taggy and Grad Invite!

HELLO, FRIENDS. IT IS I, THE GREAT AND GLAMOROUS LOSTFAIRY. *chokes on grape and has a coughing fit*

I'm fine. Really. I'm not a weirdo. :-)

ANYWAY. XD Today, I'm being lazy (sshhh, I can do that sometimes!) and I'm gonna do a quick tag! It's created by Graciepopstar91 and I got tagged for it so WOO, LET'S DO THISSS.

1. How many animals do you have on AJ?

Uh, let me check!

Exactly 40! Woah, that's more then I thought I had! No wonder it feels like I barely use them all.

I highly doubt I'll ever get 1,000 animals. That's extreme. XD

2. Direwolves or sabertooths?

Sabertooths for sure! I just find them more charming then the direwolves? I dunno, I like them best! :D

I MEAN, JUST LOOK AT IT.

IT'S SO DERPY AND CUTE. XD

3. What's your favorite AJ soundtrack?

By soundtrack, I'm assuming that means track? Or song? XD

Oh goodness, I have too many favorites! A handful of them are: Bass Camp, Ocean Base Camp, The Hidden Falls, Mt. Shiveer, and Winter's Dance. I love 'em!

4. What's your favorite blogger meme?

Hmm, this is toughhhh. But I'd have to go with THUD!

Edit created by the wonderful and amazing Ja983!! :D

AH, THE MEMORIES OF COMING UP WITH THIS. :'D Seriously, that was one of the best nights I've ever had!

5. Seals or penguins?

Seals, probably. I don't use either of them on AJ a lot but the seals are cuter then the penguins! But you CAN make a lot of hilarious outfits with the penguins. But I'm still sticking with seals. XD

I tag anyone who wants to do this!

And nowwwww, the grad invite I promised everyone. (I think?)

As you can see, we'll be celebrating Koolest's graduation on AJ! I feel like not a lot of people have AJ grads SO THIS WILL BE FUN! XD

There will be speeches, food, and laughter! I hope you all can make it!! :D

Since the date is so far in the future, it MIGHT change! Stay tuned, I guess! XD (If I can it, I'll try to inform everyone.)

Have an awesome day, everyone!

Jam on! ^.^

Comment call: Will you be able to make it to Koolest's grad? What do you think of AJJ's summer look? See the brand new mascot? :o

You Voted For It, I Posted It!

Helllloooooo, everyone!

So sorry I haven't posted in so long!! I've been a teeny bit stressed with school since I've fallen behind in math and stuff. And I've been spending a lot of time with my family. BUT I'M BACK WITH A POST NOW, SO YAY!! XD

A week ago, I put up a random poll asking what I should post about next because I like knowing what sort of posts you all like and wanted to see how it would go to have this poll. It went pretty well! I might do this kind of thing again. ;)

Since there is a tie, I'll do the one I feel like doing most right now and do the other one next week, don't you worry! ^.^

Art and edits time! (Though I must admit, I don't have a ton of edits to show you. Hmm, maybe I'll just make one for the post. XD)

This was an experiment I did on Chicken Smoothie, I was testing out the smearing tool and airbrush and stuff. I kinda made it into Hyrule Castle from Breath of the Wild but it's super messyyyyy! I kinda like the mess of it, though. :D

(If you want to see it on CS, click here!)

I really ship Ghirahim and Fi from Skyward Sword and I love both of their characters so I drew themmm! ^.^ I seriously could gush about them but that would be boring. XD

I'm pretty proud of how I did each of their cloaks, to be honest. :D

(Again, if you want to see this on CS, click here!)

This is a WIP of my AJ Friendship Quilt! I still have to add two patterns and then I think I'm done?! But I really love how the first two patterns turned out so yay! The cherries... turned out way better than I thought they would. XD

This is also a WIP! It's for Koolest and I had started it, like, in September? But I didn't really feel motivated to work on it until this month. I'm not so sure how it'll turn out but hey, it might look better once it's done!!

Cuz that shading looks funky. *glares at it*

Also, in case your wondering, this is the dog I'm drawing:

 *looks back at drawing* Yup. I have a lot to fix and add. XD

I'm watching my brother play Undertale and I keep noticing things I want to draw (Like Mettaton lying on Undyne's piano and eating grapes... XD) and one of them was baby Toriel with baby... Frisk's ancestor? I guess?

source

This is shown in the beginning story of the game and I just loved the thought of baby Toriel hanging out with Frisk's.... ancestor.... or something... XD It's still a WIP but I like how it's turning out. ;) When it's done, I might post it or you can find it in my CS gallery.

This was one of my first drawings on CS and it's still nottttttt done. I have a lot to fix and add (like ARMS. XD) but I like how I did the pattern on the Inklings shirt. I love Splatoon soooo I really wanted to try drawing an Inkling. I should try drawing a guy one sometime too. :o

Anotherrrrrr WIP. (I'm working on too many things at once...) It'sssss Frisk from Undertale! I'm using those markers I got at Christmas and I am not used to how wet they are so IT'S SO MESSY. XD

*wonders why only one leg is colored* Eh. I have weird methods. XD

I gotta color this one so IT'S ANOTHER WIP, GUYS. XD

I..... don't exactly know how to explain this one... It was a crazy roleplay done by Swirl, Sarah, and Ja and it had to do with a dragon, DanTDM and his pugs, a cat from Warriors (WHO HAS WINGS BECAUSE OF A THEORY SARAH HAS. XD), and a unicorn. So um... yeah. It was insane to read. But super hilarious. XD

I must say, I really like how it turned out. Although the cat is the size of a unicorn?????? IGNORE THAT.

And before I end this post, lemme throw in an edit I made just now.

I like making CS edits so I asked Koolest to show me one of her favorite pets and it was her pet named Savitar. (after the villain in The Flash. I wouldn't look him up cuz there's tons of spoilers.)

The quote is by Savitar, by the way! ;D

Anyhoo, have an amazing day, I'm gonna try to write JH sooooooon, and...

Jam on!

Comment call: Did you like the art and edit? How are you all doing? :D

Oooo, Some Tags!

IGNORE THAT BIG MESS CALLED AN INTRO. XD

So, how is everyone? I'm feeling good! (my nose is a bit cold... *wrinkles nose*) I was sick last week with a sore throat, cough, and stuffy nose. But I feel a lot better now! ^.^

Today's post is going to be all about TAGGGGSSS, YAY! (I am hyper, by the way.)

This first wonderful tag is created by Sarah and she tagged me too! And it's about something very close to my heart...

BOOKKKKKSSS!!! :D

Book Tag

1. What book are you reading right now?

I am reading "The Stolen Chapters" by James Riley! It's the second book in Story Thieves and I loveeeeeeeeee this series! Owen and Kiel are my favoritest characters. THEY ARE SO CUTE. AHH. I LOVE BOTH OF THEM. Plus, Kiel with Bethany is adorable. ;)

I would talk more about this but spoilers! XD

Note: I love how the first book is in this cover. IT'S SUCH A COOL EASTER EGG.

2. What book did you previously read?

I last read "The Last Thing I Remember" by Andrew Klavan. It's not a book I'd normally read but it was good! I will definitely finish this series. ;)

But yeah, it was a very interesting humorous Christian actiony book about a teenage guy who can't remember how he got kidnapped and other stuff I would say but can't. XD

I am so good at describing books. XD

3. What book are you planning on reading next?

WINTER BY MARISSA MEYER. AHHH. I LOVE THE LUNAR CHRONICLES AND THIS IS THE LAST BOOK IN THE SERIES AND IT'S 800 PAGES LONG AND KAI IS SO CUTE.

Ahem. I really LOVE this series and it's taken me so lonnnnnng to get to reading this book. I read the third book in August so I REALLY NEED TO READ WINTER.

I wouldn't recommend this book for young readers but I totally tell a bit older readers to PICK THIS SERIES UP. ^.^

4. What series are you planning on reading next?

I don't usually read like, one series straight away, all the books back to back. I do it slowly and read a ton of series.

But I really want to read Harry Potter! It looks interesting to me and I like fantasy stuff so... XD

5. What is your favorite book series?

I don't have just ONE favorite series! I have so many! Story Thieves, Wings of Fire, Lunar Chronicles, and The Maze Runner are just four of my favorites. I would recommend all of these series! But then again, I like that series too... And that one...

Heh, I love too many books! XD

6. Favorite book character?

OH MY GOODNESS. SARAH. BOOK SERIES WAS HARD ENOUGH.

This is going to be a very long list...

-Newt from The Maze Runner
-Owen and Kiel from Story Thieves
-Winter, Moonwatcher, Qibli, Turtle, and Kinkajou from Wings of Fire
-Kai, Cinder, Thorne, and Cress from The Lunar Chronicles
-SO MANY MORE.

Thanks again, Sarah, for this super fun tag!

Anyone can snatch this tag because... I don't know who has been tagged and I don't feel like searching for that information. XD

This next tag is called the Trio Tag and it was created by Ja Ja! Swirl kinda sorta tagged anyone who wanted to do it SO THANK YOU SWIRL FOR KINDA SORTA TAGGING ME!! :D

The Trio Tag

1. Share 3 random things you did in your life that you've never shared before.

Oh boy... Things I've NEVER shared before? Hmm...

1. I used to play with stuffed toys and toys a lot and they all had voices and I made up CRAZY plots with Koolest. One time we had a war happen. We even had waves of toys that would come at different times. XD My favorite toy to play with was a little grey bear named Teeny Bear. She had a very squeaky voice and was demanding. XD Koolest had her companion, Little Bear. Ah, we had such weird plots. We had hospitals for the war soldiers and a orphanage called Miscellaneous Children. I was such a weird kid.

Then again, what's changed? XD

2. This one has a long story, yayyyy! XD

One day, me and Koolest biked to the library to drop books off. We saw some guys around our age just hanging around but something felt a bit weird to us so we went to the small park nearby and waited for them to leave. But as we waited, we saw two of the guys go behind a wooden shack thing that's close to the ice rink that is there in winter. The shack is for putting your skates on where the wind can't get you. Then the other dude bikes around the library as if he was searching or looking for something. That was a bit odd to me. o.o

 Then he biked around out of view into the shack and we couldn't see them anymore.

But a few minutes later, all three of them started walking/biking away kinda fast. They went past us and kept looking at us or back at the shack. Me and Koolest then noticed a small wisp of smoke coming from the shack after the boys left. So we ran over as fast as we could and saw a fire that was growing because of the dry hay and wooden shack.

Me and Koolest were panicked because we don't own cellphones and the library was closed that day. We couldn't phone 911 or anything! But then a lady drove up to drop books off and she quickly phoned 911 for us.

Then librarians who were working in the library even though it was closed just for that day came out and told me and Koolest could come and sit and wait for the police cuz they would want to ask us questions about the boys.

So the police came and asked us a bunch of questions on their appearances and stuff. I was really nervous and shaken up and hoped I remembered all the right details.

I don't think they found those guys, sadly. o.o

3. Um, I can't really think of any so LET'S JUST SAY THIS. XD

I have kicked Mocha before. A few times, actually.

I KNOW, I KNOW, THAT IS SO BAD. MOCHA IS JUST A CUTE LITTLE FLUFFBALL OF ADORABLENESS. But I was just walking and didn't see that Mocha had stopped in front of me and POW, I kicked her.

She gave me her death glare and kept walking. I felt bad. XD

2. Name your 3 favorite movie series.

1. The Maze Runner!!! I love the cast together and they are just such good movies! :D The Death Cure might be my favorite of the three. (even though I sobbed)

2. Umm, I don't watch any other movies series so I'll say TV shows! The Flash!! IT IS SO GOOD. I CAN'T EVEN EXPLAIN HOW AMAZING IT IS.

3. Once Upon A Time! I loveeee the twisty plots and characters. ^.^

*sneakily adds 4* 4. Avatar The Last Airbender! I love Sokka and Zuko so much. Plus, I have SOOO MUCH FUN watching it with Koolest!

3. Name your 3 favorite places to go.

1. Home is where I'm happiest. ^.^

2. Church/youth. It's such a fun place to be. :D

3. The library or bookstores. SO MANY BOOKS. I LOVE THE SMELL OF NEW BOOKS.

4. Name the top 3 smaller things you want to do in your life right now.

1. Um, read/watch Harry Potter! XD

2. Finish my Fi and Ghirahim (from Legend of Zelda) art on Chicken Smoothie!

3. *whispers* Write more JH. XD

Thanks Swirl for kinda sorta tagging me and Ja for making this fun tag!!! :D

Anyone can do this tag, too!

Welp, have an amazing day, stay awesome, and...

Jam on!

Comment call: What did you think of these tags? I loved them!

P.S. Ack, I will tryyyyy to reply to comments soon! Sorry, I've been busy. DX

The World of Jamaa Tag and AJ Artist Tag!

Helloooooo everyone! :D

Sorry I haven't posted in a week! I've been caught up in doing school and enjoying the Christmas bustle. I've also been writing and drawing a lot recently so that's been fun. ^.^ (Heh, I haven't written anymore JH in FOREVER! I know you're all waiting patiently and I feel awful making you wait forever after that cliff hanger. I apologize!!)

But today I am finally posting!

In today's post, I will doing two tags made by friends of mine! Let's start off with...

The World of Jamaa Tag created by Ja983!!

1. Do you like the new or older version of the Zios mask?
The new one is alright, it's growing on me slowly. But I really loved the older one. It fit the surroundings more. It even suits the name of the land more! The Lost Temple of Zios sounds like ruins and stuff, not big shiny golden waffles. XD

source

2. What is your favorite seasonally adventure in Jamaa?
Ohhh boy. I really enjoy Jamaaliday Rescue and Lucky Clovers! Ohhh and the Spring Festival and Bitter Sweets and ALL OF THEM. XD

Okay, but my FAVORITE is Jamaaliday Rescue. ^.^



source

3. Of all the lands in Jamaa (oceans included), which one has your favorite music?
*pauses Splatoon music and logs onto AJ*
*goes to all the lands in Jamaa*
Hmm, I really like the Appondale music!
*snickers at Kimbara Outback music* IT SOUNDS ALL TWANGY AND COUNTRY-ISH! Ahh, inside joke, sorry. XD
OOOO, I love Mt. Shiveer!
Sarapia Forest is pretty. :3
Coral Canyons is good, not my favorite though. :P
Lost Temple of Zios is quiet...
Crystal Sands is fun. XD
AHH CRYSTAL REEF, I LOVE IT. XD
Bahari Bay, you are a copycat. o,o
Can't really hear Deep Blue...
I have never noticed Kani Cover music!
AND JAMAA TOWNSHIP IS BEAUTIFUL CUZ ITS JAMAALIDAYS!!!!

Okay, wow, this is a long answer for a simple question. XD To sum it up, I love: Appondale, Mt. Shiveer, Crystal Reef/Bahari Bay, and Jamaa Township. ^.^

*plays Splatoon music again*

4. On a scale of 1-10, how creepy do you rate the music in Deep Blue?
*pauses Splatoon music again and goes to Deep Blue*
O.o Why do I hear wind?! And... shrieking-ish noises?
Also, that moment you turned your sound really loud to listen to Deep Blue music and your friends keep logging in and the little friend sound keeps coming. XD

Okay, so, it's pretty creepy so I'll say 8!

5. What's something weird you find on the Animal Jam world map?
When you move your mouse over Appondale, the mud puddle overlaps the cliffs nearby. XD

6. What is something in Jamaa's lands you never really notice?
*hunts around Jamaa*

Well, I knew this nest was here but I hardly ever remember it and it's always literally hidden unless your a flying animal!

7. What's one of the prettiest things in Jamaa?
Mt. Shiveer. I love it there! It's very peaceful and all the vibrant blues just makes me attracted to Mt. Shiveer. That, and the music!

Well, thank you so much, Ja, for tagging me! :D It was a lot of fun!!

And anyone can use this tag! Take it and RUN! XD

This post isn't over, oh no! I am still going to be doing...

Animal Jam Artist Tag created by Purplestarclub!!

1. What's your favorite AJ animal to draw?
Hmm, that is a tough one. I usually find bunnies being the easiest but foxes and arctic foxes aren't too bad! I haven't drawn AJ animals in a while and now I really want to... :3

2. Which animal (in your opinion) is the hardest to draw?
I'd say the hyenas but I have only tried drawing it a year ago. I'm sure now I could better now, though. OH, and the wolves. I find them incredibly hard because of their huge noses. They also look too weird... Just look at the horrible masterpiece I did for Swirl last year. XD

source

ARGH, LOOK AT THE AWFUL NOSE. Oh dear, and the eyeeeeesss are all wobbly. Swirl, if your got rid of this awful masterpiece, I wouldn't mind. XD

3. Which one of your AJ art pieces are you most proud of?
I have three masterpieces that I'm most proud of, I think. :P

I am proud of this piece because it turned out really good in my opinion, which is a nice feeling because I don't always love my art. One thing I don't like is that the eye is good in some people opinions and other people have told me it looks... off. But lemme tell ya, I probably made 10 versions of that eye. This was my best one so deal with ittttt! XD

This one I made earlier this week! It's from a video game called Among the Sleep and I watched a YouTuber named DanTDM play it. (Me and Swirl are both kinda got obsessed with making ATS art and things. XD It's so fun though! :D) If you can't tell, its a baby (I am not showing the head since the player of the game is playing as the baby so it could be a girl or boy!) and Teddy, a helpful little guy. One thing I like is how the torn part on Teddy's arm turned out. Oh yeah, and the eyes in the darkness. Heh. c:

This is also from Among the Sleep. This is a monster that follows the baby around and is very creepy. O.o But I'm really proud how the background turned out and the colors I picked for the whole masterpiece. :D

4. Do you like to draw digitally, traditionally, or on the AJ art studio?

My favorite of those three would have to be the AJ art studio! I know lots of people complain but I have really grown used to it. Whenever I go to an art program to draw, I'm confused with all those tools and there's literally no way to figure out what everything does!

Drawing traditionally is definitely fun as well. But I find myself more drawn (Ha, I'm hilarious xD) to drawing on the AJ art studio. :D

5. What's one tip you have for AJ artists?

Well, I don't know if this tip is just for AJ artists but try using new techniques! Finding new ways to draw certain things is extremely helpful! I'd suggest watching people draw on YouTube OR watch someone in real life, IF they are okay with that. XD I watch Koolest draw all the time and get tips from just observing. ;)

So! I challenge you artists to observe other artists! Or, try looking at art online or even art on book covers to see what other artists do.

Thanks for tagging me, Purple! I had fun thinking about the questions and answering them. ^.^

Anyone can use this tag!! :D

Welp, thanks for reading, merry Christmas, and...

Jam on!!

Comment call: Did you enjoy reading this post? :D

Update: I will be FINALLY changing the template to be CHRISTMASY!!! Took me forever to realize it's not fall anymore. o,o
