75!!!

My 75th post! Huzzah! You know what that means; Yugioh abridged!

Oh, yeah. I did really well on my exams! 91% on Social Studies and 97% on Science!

In Gym, we're doing Badminton. Somehow, Onigiri(Penguin's new name, remember?) and I were allowed to be partners. Huzzah! Whoever we're up against is bound to lose some eyes!

I recently got the Glee soundtrack. It's really good!

I have nothing else to say, so here's episode 3!

I can Haz Cheezburgur?

Oh, my giddy giddy god's trousers! I just discovered the FUNNIEST website EVER! Here it is;

http://icanhascheezburger.com/

It basically has a bunch of random cats doing really weird things with really weird captions. Here's a few;








I love them. And, also, I noticed I have a new follower for the first time in like, AGES. Welcome to the blog! And how the heck did you hear about this? I mean, I haven't been advertising it at all lately...

Exams are tomorrow. Bleh. I studied like heck. Which, for me, is totally unusual. Study habits? What're those?

Sayonara!

Crapberry?

Today, I realized that if you switch the 'n' in Cranberry for a 'p', you get Crapberry. And you don't even want to know what my last name turns into if you do that.

Sayonara!

Video?

Hey! I'm writing this post to let you know that I might not be posting in the next week because exams are on Thursday and Friday, and I need to study.

I'm eating some month-old chicken fettucini right now, and it tastes exactly like it did when it was first cooked. It's the strangest thing.

The title of this post is 'video?' for two reasons; one, the holiday special, and two, the comics.

The holiday special might not be up for awhile, so just bear with me. My goal is to at least get it up by Chinese New Year(which also happens to fall on Valentine's day). Sorry!

Now, you know the comics that Penguin and I draw, that I put up every now and again? We're thinking of making them into a video, or a series of videos, and posting them on Youtube and the blog! What do you think?

Penguin and I would be playing ourselves, of course. Kitty, though, doesn't want to be in the video, and Spoilsport is over in Washington. And then there are all the fictional characters that would randomly show up. We're thinking that we'll put posters of it up around the school, asking people to volunteer for those roles. What do you think?

Speaking of Penguin, that is no longer her name. You see, people have started calling me Cranberry a lot now, so Penguin wanted a nickname too. One day, she randomly called out, "Onigiri!" and wouldn't answer to anything else. Onigiri, by the way, is Japanese for 'cut and slash' as well as 'rice ball.'

So, Penguin is now Onigiri.

Onigiri says that she is becoming more and more like Spoilsport. She has started keeping sharp objects near her bed. I don't recall Spoilsport ever doing this.

She also almost swore at the new kid when he purposefully ate two desserts yesterday. This I can understand. That is really rude. And it's something that Spoilsport would do. Strange happenings.

So, anyway, last night I had a sleepover at TWWOTF's house with Kitty. It was TWWOTF's birthday.

We talked about the normal stuff, boys we like, homework, boys we like, exams, boys we like. Normal seventh-grade girl stuff. Strangely enough, even though I'm the only one in the three of them who actually likes anybody(oh, be quiet), they were the ones who kept bringing it up.

Speaking of which, I recently had an extremely strange dream. Hair Flipper#1(in many) was, as always, being totally selfish during lunchtime. She was saying, "Well, you know, a girl like me totally has more boys after her than, for example, Cranberry."

Then, Super Stupid(why him, of all people?) was like, "Oh, yeah? Let's put that to a test." Then he went up to the podium and said, "Alright, Cranberry, you stand here-" at this point he pointed to a spot between two barriers that separate the seventh grade part of the lunchroom from the eighth, "- and Flipper #1 stand here." then he pointed to a spot in front of the fireplace.

Then he announced, "All boys who currently like Flipper#1, stand next to her. All who like Cranberry, stand next to her." When he mentioned Flipper#1, one boy, a nerdy one, too, went to her, while half the seventh-grade male student body went to me. Then he said, "The rest of you, decide which one you like better." That's when the entire rest of the boys went to my side. Including Flipper#1's boyfriend.

It was really weird. I mean, what is that kind of dream supposed to mean exactly? Seriously, it's so confusing.

So, anyway, what do you think of the video idea?

Sayonara!

Plant or Animal?

Today,TWWOTF and I were waiting to be picked up after school when we started discussing what the best machine in the world would be. We both agreed that it would be a machine that told how people and objects felt about you when you pointed it at them.

If you point it at Penguin, she thinks you're er friend. Point it at the school building, they wish you would stop skipping down the hall. Point it at your favorite shirt, they wish you would put on some deodorant, etc etc.

Then I said we should try pointing it at a comrade of Super Stupid and Sir Stupidity, who we will now refer to as "El Stupido." TWWOTF and I agreed that he probably wouldn't count as human. We made a list of what the machine WOULDN'T regard him as;

human
animal
building
car
bicycle
alien
Bigfoot
water
element
rock
yeti
hat
scarf
paper
miscellaneous

That left one more category; plant. Now we are both convinced that El Stupido is a plant.

In other news, last night I received a call from Spoilsport in Washington(Yes, she is gone). Apparently she is doing fine, but she has not managed to find any bizarre friends yet, so she is in need of something funny. What should I send her?

I am currently reading a book called The Looking Glass Wars. It's really good.

Penguin and I have both decided that I should never be a doctor.

Exams are next week.

There's another school dance a few weeks later. I plan on wearing a 70s outfit for no good reason at all.

I think I'm getting better at photoshop. I've been practicing turning anime lookalikes of my characters into my characters. Lus and On have been coming along well, but I can't decide between two lookalikes for Ru(or Roo, I don't know how I spelled it last, but I now spell it Ru).

Should I use this one or this one for Ru?

Wait, no, I've got to get off. Sorry!

Sayonara, everybody!

More characters!

Hey! The ban's kinda back on! My mom's been really PO'd lately, so I haven't gotten the chance to use the computer.

I don't really have anything to say, except that the special's coming along well, so here's the rest of the characters.

Third book;

Lus of Sae; Daughter of the dead leaders of Sae, she is under a lot of pressure, as are her triplet brother and sister, Luc of Sae and Lind of Sae. They were told to be leaders ever since they were eight, when their parents died, even though the city is temporarily being run by her uncle. It's like a competition to see who gets control of Sae. Sae, a city surrounded by thick forest, is hard to reach from any of the surrounding cities, so it is shrouded in mystery and oddity, as the behavior of Saes is not governed by any of the morals of other cities. Lus has one of three jobs in the city, which is Dye Maker. She grows the necessary herbs for dyes, and makes the dyes out of those. Since she has so much talent, she is allowed to use her dye to customize her own clothes and can sell her dyes in Aire any time there is a selling group going there. She likes to use purple to dye her clothes. When Sae is destroyed by fire, she is given the duty to lead the remaining Saes to safety. So, basically, she wins the competition. Born on October 12.

On of Nor; Working inside a mountain by day and calling like a wolf during the night, On has developed a very outgoing personality. When he finds himself helping out a load of Sae refugees, he finds it easy. Their leader, Lus of Sae, has an interesting personality, as do the rest of them. Though Nor has no space for more people, he is fully aware that Fia always needs more people to deal with all the metal coming out from Nor and Rill. He never considered the complications, the explaining, and confrontations, though. When he meets his fellow howler, Ru, he thinks he may finally have found a friendly face, but Ru is oddly aloof and cold. Before he knows it, he's gotten himself entangled in a mess he can't come even close to dealing with. In the end, an new city is founded where more people are needed, and all is well, but Ru still won't approach him. What's going on? Born on March 30.

Fourth Book;

Ru of Fia; From one of the three mountain cities in this country, she lives on the very border of the place. Though there is much happening outside her city, she is only interested in her work as a Metal Tender and in one of the other mountain cities, Nor. Since she was eight, she's had a habit of going out on the ledge outside her home and calling out, like a wolf, to two boys, one in Nor and one in Rill. When Nor and Rill, which both move to wherever mining is best on their side of Fia, are close enough to echo to each other, they all talk to each other. While the boy from Rill is always interesting, there is just a sort of wit in the words of the Nor boy that has made her obsess over him. When she and the Nor boy finally meet and it is clear that he is in love with a desperate Sae girl(Lus), she begins to work hard to get him to notice her instead. She becomes best friends with Lus in the process, and forms a fierce loyalty to her, too. Becomes a fierce warrior in the rebellion. Born on May 22.

Len of Rey; A family friend of Lus, Luc, and Lind, he's two years older than everyone else in the twelve. Ever since Lus became involved in the trading groups, he's become able to see the three of them a lot. He often feels that he has to protect them, even after Lind betrays them and Luc dies. Thus, he becomes very close to Lus afterward, and, like Roz with Cla, the feeling of protection develops into something else.Lives in the closest city to Sae. Even though he's been a hunter all his life, he's never been very good at it, so he's not exactly the most wealthy of all the people in Rey. Born on March 4th.

Fifth Book;

Per of Tii; When Kae lived in Tii, she always hated this boy. He is always talking about how important his father, an influential man on the International Relations Board, is dealing with supposed poverty issues in other countries, even though the worst are in their own country. Quite honestly, he's just a jerkface. In the beginning, anyway; As it turns out, he feels the same way about Tii as Kae, and has been sneaking bits of information out to people outside the city in order to help in the rebellion. This the other people in the twelve, except for An and Lind, don't know until the actual battle itself, in the seventh book. Born on August 6th.

Sho of Rill; From the most racial-friendly city in the nation(A place chock-full of albinos, including himself), he's always been very open to things that would normally repel anyone except the people who are used to that kind of thing. So, when Laux arrives in Rill, she's welcomed and respected as a psychic, especially by Sho. Since this is the first time she's been accepted by such a large group of people for her talents, she's almost convinced that she should just wait for the rebellion to run it's course and stay in Rill. Sho, though, has other ideas, and convinces her that she should listen to her dreams and go to Tii. He comes with her, and it proves to be a valuable decision, because it ends up being just that extra bit of fighting force that helps the rebels win. So, ultimately, Sho ends up being the savior of the country for that one little decision. Born on September 27th.

Sixth book;

Laux of Ra; Named after the most well known name in mythology and living in the most intelligent city in the nation, you'd think this girl would have a lot to be happy about. Instead, disturbed by nightmares of things to come and stories of hatred and sickness outside her city, she is intrigued, like many, by the city of Sae, which her dreams seem to center around. Rumors say that the most likely place that rebellion is to come from is Sae, and she seems to be the only one in her city who believes these to be true. Despite this intrigue, when Lus escorts Cla, Kae and Roz to Sae, she stays behind as instructed by her dreams. She is found to be one of the last psychics in the world, and becomes a key part of the rebellion. Born on January 14th.

An of Drae(Pronounced; Ao-wn of Drey); Before Lind goes to Tii, she flees west to Drae, the second most impoverished city in the country. There, she finds An, who doesn't quite have the same belief in Tii as her, but is very close. He believes that without Tii, the country will fall apart. The two stubbornly start towards Tii, despite An's recently broken leg, and on the way meet Len. Len tries to make them see sense, but is pushed aside by Lind, which makes him very angry. It is An's idea to destroy Ra in order to prove once more just how strong Tii is, losing the favor of all the rest of the twelve in the process. But, like Per, he actually has alternative motives; By gaining the trust of the Tiis and losing the trust of everyone else, he will have more power in bringing down Tii. He also helps in making Lind become sane again. Born on February 22.

The seventh book switches off between all of them, but even though he's not one of the twelve, Here's Lus's and Lind's brother, Luc.

Luc of Sae; It was always thought that he was the one who would take over Sae, even if Lus fit in with them so well. He's cool, calm, and collected, evidently the big brother of the trio from the very first glance. It was surprising to everyone who witnessed it that Lus was the one proclaimed to be the new ruler of Sae. He works as a Woodcarver, taking the lumber and carving it into things the country needs. Perhaps he wasn't selected to be the leader because he wasn't exactly the best of them, whereas Lus was always one of the main Dye Makers. Whether that was true can never be determined, though, because Luc is dead, and Lus is alive.

That's all of them! Finally, ending today's post, don't you think this song suits Lind and Lus really well? Like, if it's from Lind's point of view?



Sayonara, everybody!

Ideas?

So, if you guys have any ideas that you specifically want on the special video, just leave them in a comment.

Also, the ban's off! Sort of! I'm being allowed to post once a week! It's better than nothing!

Sayonara!
