Hello there! Happy Thursday! I haven't been on here in forever. But, here I am.
So, lately, I've been riding my new scooter around our neighborhood and listening to my ipod. (one ear of course, wouldn't want to get hit with a car...) and just watching nature.
Well, I've discovered that caterpillars are dumb, and decide they want to cross the road, and to them, the road is pretty freaking wide. So, I have committed my life to rescuing them! YAY!
Today, I have rescued Oscar, an Eastern tail caterpillar, and Banjo, which I still haven't idtenitifed quite yet.
Here's Banjo:
And here's Oscar:
And oh, here's a cool picture of what a kind of caterpillar do. Super cool.
Sorry for the bareness of this blog...couldn't think of anything to post. I don't want to review sequels on here, unless I've reviewed the books before it, and all I've been reading is sequels so...ANYWAY. I am making this blog post to talk about the one thing that I am currently obsessed with:
THE RESCUERS
The Rescuers is about two mice and a little girl. The two mice are Bernard:
And Miss. Bianca:
The little girl is Penny:
Penny has been kidnapped by a lady named Medusa, and her lacky Mr. Snoops. Observe:
They kidnapped her because she's the only one that can fit down the Black Hole, to find that diamond that Medusa is holding above. Penny, being only in the first grade, is very good at secretly sneaking out, and/or sending messages in bottles. One of the bottles, the Rescue Aid Society finds, and that's when Bernard and Miss. Bianca go to rescue her.
Here's the Rescue Aid Society anthem:
It's a great story, and I started watching it on Monday, I had a cold, and then I ended up watching the sequel, and then I watched them both again on Tuesday, just cause, and then again on Wednesday, and then on Thursday...but I love them, and I especially love the music in the first one. They're only an hour and seventeen minutes each, so they're very easy to finish in a day. I love the little mouse things, how they have the same things as we do, but small.
So, there. My current obsession, this movie is so old. It came out the same year as Star Wars: A New Hope. (1977)
I hope everyone had a great week! I'm going to a track meet tonight. :)
In this third book in the Lunar Chronicles, Cinder and Captain Thorne are fugitives on the run, now with Scarlet and Wolf in tow. Together, they’re plotting to overthrow Queen Levana and her army.
Their best hope lies with Cress, a girl imprisoned on a satellite since childhood who's only ever had her netscreens as company. All that screen time has made Cress an excellent hacker. Unfortunately, she’s just received orders from Levana to track down Cinder and her handsome accomplice.
When a daring rescue of Cress goes awry, the group is separated. Cress finally has her freedom, but it comes at a high price. Meanwhile, Queen Levana will let nothing prevent her marriage to Emperor Kai. Cress, Scarlet, and Cinder may not have signed up to save the world, but they may be the only hope the world has. Genre: YA, fairy tail retelling, dystopian. Cover Love: Love that hair!
Overview:
This book was amazing. I love this series, and the last book comes out next year and I think I will cry when it does come out. This world is amazing, and I love all the characters! In this book, a lot of the characters get separated from each other, so we get lots of different POV's in different places. We get to see more of Captain Thorne, and Kai, and of course....Cress. Cress is nervous and not very socialized, but she's adorable. She's basically Rapunzel, and Marissa does the best jobs of retellings! Since I know Rapunzel's story really well. (Not the Tangled version, mind you.) This book was great! READ THIS SERIES.
Romance:
Kai and Cinder are separated at this time, so nothing from them. Same for Scarlet and Wolf. The only romance is between Cress and Thorne, which is non existent through most of the book. And when it does come, it's perfectly fine. These books are just so sweet. *Giggles*
Language:
Nope, nothing. Ziltch. Nada.
Violence:
This is basically worlds at war, so there's some shooting. and some knives, and some blood. But not over the top kind of violence.
Religion:
Not really. I loved this book, and it kept me turning the pages and wanting to read more, and risk being exhausted the next day. I haven't read such a good series in a very long time, and I was excited to have found it. Please read this series, it's amazing. Rating: 5 out of 5 stars! -Maddi
Ok, ok. I know I've done a lot of RP posts. But this one is different, I promise.
So, I decided, since things were going a little slow in the group I am in now, I decided to make my own.
Yep, you read that right. I made my own group! And I want you to join. :)
It's both Marvel and DC, and the rules are simple. Basically: Have fun and no weird play. You catch my drift? I'm also going to let people have OC's! Original Characters. Which are always fun.
You can find the rest of the rules, and how to apply here.
Also, it'll be super fun. And you know me already, and since I run the group, you won't have to worry about weird people being in charge. :)
(You will need a Tumblr and Skype account to play. But Tumblr is super easy to sign up for, and so is Skype. And you won't have to use our Tumblr for anything weird, just RPing. Same goes for Skype. :))
So...on Sunday, I made something. I decided to make a character from the video game I am replaying. Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Which was my first Zelda game. So I made a couple gifs to help introduce what I made...
Wait, what is that over there? Link wondered.
Wait, what happens when I think this? He thought. "AHHHHHH."
DA DA DUNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's supposed to look like this:
And video of it too:
I'm very proud of it, and I made in three days, and I made it all by myself. (As in my mom like didn't help at at all, I just asked her a question once. And no pattern.) And I made it from stuff all around the house, so I didn't buy anything. :) So there you go...this is what I've been doing with my days.
