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

Ja983

Sarahkey8

Violet86271

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? 

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

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

Well, Hello There 2018!

Hello, it's your friendly neighborhood moustached neighbor! (Heh heh, sorry, another DanTDM reference!)

GUYS!!!!

IT'S 2018!!!!!

2017 IS GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2017 started off with me coming home from the youth retreat after driving all night. I was exhausted but happy to be home.

2018 started off with me starting to write this post and listening to Splatoon music. Not quite as eventful but, eh, who cares. XD

Didja guys stay up all night? I didn't, actually. I mean, I saw the clock at 12AM but I was in bed, almost asleep. XD

What did you guys do to celebrate? My family doesn't do a whole lot but on New Years Eve we had a super yummy supper of bacon wrapped wieners, Caesar salad, chicken wings, and pizza buns. It was all SO good! :o We also played a game called Balderdash which was creative and fun! Before supper, though, me and Koolest and my brother watched DanTDM on our Wii U and then my brother played Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild WHICH IS SO COOL!!!!!! :O You can hunt animals with your bow and arrow, climb mountains or pretty much anything, make food in a pot over a fire, catch fish, and AHHH, it's awesome. XD

Okay! Enough with my little chitchat!

Today's New Years! (Oops, I didn't end up finishing this post on New Years...)

So I'm going to be doing a little New Years post. (I said "little" because I don't have a whole lot of time to write it... heh.)

Looking back at 2017, it was a good, good year. But in some ways, it wasn't as good as I hoped. The main reason being that many of our AJ Blogger friends have quit. And I miss them all so badly. :(

But I try to look at the good of 2017!

Here's a small list of some of what I found good about 2017:

• I got closer to God and started to really enjoy praise and worship at my church or church in general.
• I got super close to some AJ Bloggers due to being able to talk to a lot of them in one place. (Y'all rock. ^-^)
• I started to learn how to really enjoy life.
• I made tons of awesome memories in the summer such as biking in the rain after getting ice cream blizzards (and having one explode on me, XD) or swimming out in the lake with my family on vacation or walking Mocha or biking with Koolest and than stopping somewhere random just to talk or talking for hours with the AJ Bloggers or watching TV shows with my siblings or biking fast down the sidewalks of my city.
• I got more connected into my nursery class at church.
• I learned how to socialize a bit more.
• I drew more and got better.
• I wrote more and got better.
• The Maze Runner series captured me and I seriously am the biggest fangirl for it.
• I found out Splatoon music is awesome. (XD)
• I found out DanTDM is an awesome, hilarious (and kid friendly) YouTuber and now love watching him on our Wii U with Koolest and my brother.
• I hung out with my siblings more.
• I found out that my AJ Blogger friends have my back.

I could keep going on but I think I'll stop here!

I hope you all can look back at 2017 and see that it was a good year! If you can't see it at first, look harder!

Alright, before I end this post off, let's have a little mini throwback. ^.^ I'll be looking at 2017 posts and pick random highlights. Throwbacks are fun so WOO! XD
