*wishes one of her sisters would hurry up and get married*
It's been too long since this house had a baby in it... *sigh*

!

Yeah I am though I already have 2 nieces and 6 nephews It will be very exciting to have my Sister have a baby!!

Ben, which Ranger's Apprentice book is coming out in 2010? Is that the 7th book?

yeah its the 7th book I think its called Erak's Ransom but I,m not sure

Yeah Pixar is great!! It was funny! but there were parts that were not so funny... But a lot was really funny!

Yeah, they're one of my favorite movie-making companies (although technically I think they're owned by Disney...)
Haha, it sounds cool I'll have to rent it when it comes in at the library :]

Dinsey is good too for sure!

You know, the real reason I stay away for so long and then come back is just to get all these wonderfully warm welcomes! ;) ;)) (J/K) Sincerely, thanks everyone!

Well, not much to say tonight (unusual for me, hmm? :p ) I'm getting weary so will probably call this an earlier-than-usual night.

But first: I was out for an early-morning walk this a.m. and saw a star and a constellation I hadn't seen in months: bright Sirius (I think it was) and Orion. Seeing these again makes one feel like they're greeting an old friend whom they haven't seen for a long time. Lovely feeling!

Btw, Elle, I'm sorry I wasn't on last night anymore to chat a bit with you here. Tiredness overtook me. (-| (Speaking of which ... i-) ) And here is the Hunter himself. May the stars gaze down on you with just enough light by which you can see your dreams clearly. Night all! :)

Mortereve everyone! I thought since Halloween is coming up, I'd ask what everyone is planning to be for the holiday. Or are you even going to dress up at all? Stay home and pass out candy? Go to a party? Trick or treat? :D I'm curious!

Anyways, it seems too long since I did a ketchup!!!

I love Peter Pan, NG, even though Tinker Bell's attitude has always bugged me! But it's a great movie, and Return to Neverland was just as good! My friend is going to be Peter Pan for Halloween, I can't wait to see him in those green tights! xD

Yes, Miss Rosario, my aunt sends stuff very often. A lot of the time it'll just be newspaper cuttings of articles she thought we'd like to read or something though. ;)

Hopefully I will have more opportunities to see them in the future, too, NN. So, what have you been up to lately?

Greenleaf, now you can say "I was named after a poet and I didn't even know it!" ahaha ;)) I like the new avatar, Up was amazing! I have never seen such a cute, creative, inspiring and funny movie before. I can't wait for it to come out on DVD!

Oh my goodness, that would be absolutely awful MissA! Cliffnotes saved me during that book, I would of had no clue what was going on! Your teacher must have been very serious about not using cliffnotes or sparknotes. If I were a teacher, it wouldn't really matter if my students used one to help them understand the book more. That's what my teacher told us, as long as we also read the book too!

Belle was always my favorite Disney Princess, Malkah! She's great! I loved her yellow dress, and I wanted to be her when I grew up! ;))

Sometimes I feel that way about singing too, QS. I don't feel like I have that great of a voice, although it always sounds better when I'm not around people and am only by myself. It sounds absurd, but its true. But as of late, I've really been trying to sing more when I'm around friends, just to see their reaction when I burst out in song..;D The more I sing in front of people, the less nervous I sound!
But I'll probably stick to singing in the shower mostly, while you sing while you press apples!! :D Oh, and I really like your avatar too! <3 Up!!

The usual is always the best, Prince Cor. I've been good, doing the usual too! School, weekends, friends, familiy...;) I've been watching a lot of classic Disney movies, which has been really fun :D

I'm great, FF! I'm in 10th grade, and the fact that my education at home is coming to a near is really quite scary, I must say! In three years I will most likely be living on my own at some university! But you are gonna be done with school even sooner..
Whenever I think of the future it excites me and scares me at the same time. I can't wait to be out in the world on my own, but the fact that I'll be completely responsible is a bit terrifying. I assume when the time comes I'll be ready. Hopefully!
Oh and I don't blame you for taking some college stuff, I'm taking a college prep science class and will take the actual college course next year. I figured I might as well get high school AND college credit at the same time!

Oh yes, my nicer clothes always seem to be the ones that get spilt on too!

Sorry if I skimmed over you, but my dad just made me a chocolate milk shake (at least I think its a milkshake, we aren't exactly sure because he bought some ice cream but the box is in another language so it might not even be ice cream...but I'm sure it'll taste fine anyways.) Um...so what was I saying? Oh yes, right...sorry this one was kind of a quickie!

Belle was always my favorite Disney Princess, Malkah! She's great! I loved her yellow dress, and I wanted to be her when I grew up!

Frequent conversation in my house:

Me: Oh, I want to be in The Beauty and the Beast so I can play Belle!
Dad: Delaney... you ARE Belle.

:) I love her... she actually has a personality! And instead of little animal friends, she has talking household items. ;) Love it.

My friend is going to be Peter Pan for Halloween, I can't wait to see him in those green tights!

Hehe! That made me laugh! :)

My brother wants to be either King Peter or Prince Caspian for Hallowe'en. Thanks to me, of course. *coughs deprecatingly* ;) I've told him the beginning of Prince Caspian so many times I've lost count. We've only reached the end once. He's five years old...short attention span, don't you know. ;) Same with The Hobbit. He made up his own ending to that one, based on a cartoon version. It pains me to watch that cartoon. :-s

Well. It's too cold for me to sit around at this computer anymore. I'm going to go curl up in my bed with a word puzzle and a cup of tea...or hot chocolate... or tea...

*waltzes into the Square, waving at all the people who have posted since yesterday - and that's quite a lot of people* This ketchup will take a while. *bites lip*

Well, here goes. :D

Lark! I've missed you too. Haha, right now I'm the only person in the house awake too, except for my little brother. :p

Mel, I like Horace a lot too! :) I'm working on reading The Icebound Land, and I like the chapters with Halt and Horace.

That's all right, pon. Thanks for the link! I'll check it out later.

Wow, really, NN95? :-o Man, I didn't know that. I'll have to have sugar-free gum when I get braces! :D

greenleaf, I've been reading The Icebound Land and I was so shocked when I read the part with Halt saying bad things about the king and then getting banished from the kingdom for a year! And it was so sad when Crowley had to take away his oakleaf. :(

Ha, yeah...we were really busy on his birthday, narnianerd. :p

Hey EP! Glad you had a good vacation. :) It's always nice to get away for a week or so. :)

I'm doing great, FF. :D I'm still working on the Redwall book, as well as a Ranger's Apprentice book. I'm enjoying both of them very much. :)
Oh, and thanks, my math quiz went well! I only missed one problem.

Ah, okay. Thanks for telling me, Ben. So who is your favorite Ranger's Apprentice character?

Syd, I never liked Tinker Bell much either. She just seemed too...vain, if you know what I mean. :p I agree! Return to Neverland is awesome - maybe even better than the first.

Yippee, ketchup's done. :p Anyway, yesterday was a quiet day - we mostly stayed at home doing schoolwork. I practiced the piano till I thought my hand would fall off. :p Then I read more of the Ranger's Apprentice book.

Well, everyone have a lovely mortereve! :)

[-( Thats a really short post there EG, if this wasn't your birth day. Well I'd have to lock you up and put you in the Fountain Jail for sorta old times sake... Remember that page Ben and Ti'na where we all posted really short posts so I could try out Jail food? That was fun.
Anyways.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

NG: Well I'm glad, birthdays should never be not busy.

You know what makes me mad? None of my siblings like Narnia! Or the LotRs! Or the Inheritance cycle! (I'm sure at this point Lys will say 'good for them) Or anything that involves reading something over one hundred pages! It drives me nuts! My older sister sorta does but she isn't crazy about it!

I just had to vent that...

In other news coach said the "I didn't do that bad" (He'll never tell you your good, just that you didn't do that bad) last night so thats very good and Noseguard is still up for grabs.

Mortereve all!

Oh, I didn't know he did Ratatouille too, that's another one of my favorite Pixar scores! He just has a really cool style in music, and I really love the instruments he uses.
Yeah, we've been getting rain a lot lately, but hopefully snow soon *crosses fingers*

Yeah, he did. I enjoyed that one, too, as I do all Pixar scores, but unfortunately I don't own any.
We haven't had any precipitation of any sort since the snow... it's just been cold and overcast.

Joe, you play tackle and noseguard? Cool. Do you get many sacks? 'Course I suppose it's usually the ends that sack the QB, eh? If I were on a football team I'd probably be a wide receiver.

And I am truly amazed at how detailed Tolkien is! It is really helpful, you don't even have to imagine anything, it's already been imagined for you! SOOO unlike Lewis! Lewis really does leave so much to your imagination.

So, just out of curiosity, which method do you like better? It seems from what you said that prefer Tolkien's method. I, personally, much prefer Lewis's method of writing, because I like to imagine everything myself, and just read what goes on. Tolkien goes into so much detail, it can almost get boring because there's nothing going on, and I have to see Middle-earth the way Tolkien did.

No dije que yo querid tomaba el francés. Pero terminé la toma del español.

Mi traductor no quiere decirme qué usted dijo. ;)) Ahora, pienso que usted dijo que usted quería francés pero usted tomó español. ¿Es ese verdadero?

I admit that I was surprised as well, but for future reference the two different colors are #F4E7C4 and #EBDDB8. #EBDDB8 is the darker of the two, and so will not be quite as secretive on #F4E7C4 as #F4E7C4 is on #EBDDB8. :-B

Ah, well, thanks for the two codes codes. And it looks as though the even numbered posts are the lighter brown and odd numbered posts are the darker brown. Can you read this?

F2, glad you guys got a new router set up successfully, and that your own computer is back! :D

I know exactly how you mean about the first kind of busy- it's the kind I generally get after being away from the internet for several days. There's usually lots to get caught up on, but once it's all done there is this great sense of accomplishment. :) Of course, I probably wouldn't take breaks from the internet for several days just to get that feeling. ;))

Yep, I agree. Though, I not usually off of the internet for several days. I usually get the feeling after a full day of doing lots of things that I've had to do for a while and finally was able to schedule them all in to one day, and then I don't really have anything else to do.

Anyway, this week will be an a busy one, too, but one which consists of a bunch of things I'd rather not do.

Hurrah! :) That's great about your friends- do you know if they are enjoying it?

Oh yes, quite a bit! They talk about it often, too. :)

The episode in question we skipped was Pussycat Club or something of that title?

Oh yes, I remember that one. You could have gotten by with skipping a few scenes here and there, but there's certainly nothing wrong with skipping the episode. In fact, it's always better to stay on the safe side. :)

I had heard something about them wanting it to be a film, but apparently there was some other TV-to-Big Screen films from that time that didn't do well, so they switched it to the TV shows. I'm glad they did, I know sometimes the entire project is scrapped and no one gets to see it, so it was nice at least we can see it in parts. (Although, I think a Get Smart film with those characters would of been quite fun!)

Yeah, I think they mentioned that about them wanting it to be a regular film in the introduction by Barbara Feldon. Anyway, that's interesting that there were some other similar projects that didn't go well. Yeah, it is quite a shame when a good project is scrapped. Especially if the problem is that no studio will pick it up.

Speaking of Get Smart films, have you seen the new one? I saw about the second half or the second three quarters on TV. Some parts were funny, and there were lots of references to the original series, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Ahh, okay! :) Well, I hope it goes better for you. :) How are things (non-retainer wise) for you? :)

Thanks! Otherwise, things are going great. How about with you?

You know, the real reason I stay away for so long and then come back is just to get all these wonderfully warm welcomes! ;) ;)) J/K

Lol, I know what it's like. But, I hope you don't stay away for this long any more!

Hopefully I will have more opportunities to see them in the future, too, NN. So, what have you been up to lately?

Yeah, that would be great! I haven't been up to much... just the normal routine. What about you?

Wow, really, NN95? :-o Man, I didn't know that. I'll have to have sugar-free gum when I get braces! :D

Yeah, they'll let you do that. But, like I said, I've had all sorts of gum, and none of it sticks to my braces... oh well.

Well, I'm off. Mort'reve all!

Mortereve all! And mortereve to those who are insistently on the hunt for SMs...like me *chuckling emoticon*
NN, yeah, I'm normally trying to ignore the analyzing side of me while I watch a movie for the first time. And if the movie is good enough, I won't notice things until a couple of time through. Awesome! I'd love to watch a movie with your dad. :P The comentaries help a lot on the visual aspect of things. Love listening to those! :D
Halmark movie are fun to watch, just because they do a lot of things that other (better) movie don't do. So you learn the do's and dont's from the negative side of things, which is much easier than trying to figure out all the right things in a good movie.

Mel, I have not yet watched that version of Pride and Prejudice, even though I have had it on my To Watch list for a while. Personally, I don't think anyone can be a better Darcy than Firth. *fangirl sigh* Jk, :P

Life. Life is so...confusing.
Love. Love is also so...confusing, but in a good way, I think. I don't even know anymore.
Help. I think I need some help figuring out the paths of life and love.

[the above is normal for a teenager...or so all the parents say]SMs are secret messages, therefore they should contain secret information. Such as: My first name is very similiar to one of my RP characters.

Mortereve all! I'm on a short break between subjects, so I thought I would stop by and make a quick catch-up post. :)

-----------------------

@ Lark. Well, I sort-of play the guitar. :p I'm not that great at it, but I'm still learning.

@ Mel. Thank you for the kind welcome back, Mel! :D We have missed being around all of our friends as well, though we have been lurking around, keeping up with everyone. "Beware the lurkers!!" ;)

Oh, thank you most kindly! *bows* So far, we only have about 4 or 5 entries. Hopefully we'll get more in before the deadline this weekend. I'm looking forward to reading everyones stories. :)

Oh, he pointed that out several times on our way home.... and at home... and this morning. 8-| I finally said "spinach", but then Vern said that was a given and it wasn't a soundtrack so it didn't count. *sigh*

@ My dear sister Princess. Thanks, sis. *Thanks, Princess. It's good to see you again.... I suppose. ;) *

Hmm, I'm afraid I have forgotten what all we have discussed concerning soundtracks before.... *clears throat* Anyway, what kind of music are you wanting? Epic, creepy, sad, happy, combination of all moods?

@ NN. Very few people have..... Yes, I would recommend his work. You'll have to do some searching to find his good stuff, though.

*waves back to Greenleaf*

@ Fanny. Everything is going well. Life as usual for me. :) And you?

@ Fauntastic. Hmm, that lineup sounds awfully familiar.... ;) Glad everything is going well for you! Recently I've been trying to expand my viewing of movies to older films. It's been a lot of fun! :D

Happy Birthday EustuceGirl!!!!!! :D/

@ My sister..... again. Is this merely a melodramatic moment for you or is something up?

[so far has not had this problem his sister speaks of.]

----------------

Alright, well I better get back to school work. Talk with everyone later!

*creeps in*
Anyone remember me? ;)) While the threat and fear of a huge catchup has been hindering me from returning here, I've started missing you guys. :P Especially the people who I don't seem to run into in any other part of the forum. ;))
Now, where to start? I appear to have been missing since mid September, but heavens, that was more than 25 pages ago. And even if I replied to something any of you said back then, you would have no idea what I was talking about. ;)) So I'll start reading on the 1st of October (with a few exceptions), and comment only when strictly necessary.

Winter, a loooong time ago, I asked you about your avatar, and you told me it was from Merlin. Back then I knew absolutely nothing about Merlin, but since then, I have fallen very much in love with him. JK. ;)) Anyway, as Valia has probably told you, I'm a big fan of the series now. :D
*misses Queen Susan rather horribly* Yoohoooooo! Around anywhere near? ;)) By the way, I assume you got the last PM I sent you. . . which I sent after the last one you sent me . . .? ;))
Oh, and while I see someone else mentioning it (waaaay back), I could read your signature when it was teeeny tiny too. ;)
Oh, and you were "looking for a post" by me way back on . . . erm, , September 30th. Sorry this is rather late. :-$
*wonders if malkah still haunts this place, and if so, waves* :D I love your avatar . . . and all the other Merlin graphics you recently posted!
Heya, Aiden! How's life going?
*has not missed Djaq as much as some of the others, because she has ways of keeping in touch with her other than NW, but waves rather violently anyway*
I wonder if my arm will get dislocated by the time I finish this post?

My goodness. How I've missed everyone! *sniffs* :( :-s

Hmm, I have a good long paragraph I should respond to that Cor wrote me waaaaay back in September, but he would probably be terribly confused as to what I was talking about. ;)) I will ask-how did you like Fiddler on the Roof? :D And how is the English class going?
*waves at Vern, whom she has not talked to in ages* :-o

Jojo!!!! I can't remember which avatar of mine it was that you envied, but if you remember, and don't mind using one somebody else already used, you're welcome to use it! :D ;))
Betsie, I see you did show up after all. Around about the time I left. :-o :( :)

Bella. Goodness, you're one of the people who I never run into anywhere but here. Lately, at least. So, I've missed you! :D
Flambeau! :D How is the honorable President of the Manalive Secret Society doing? And do we have any new members to report? :D *sighs* We were having a very interesting conversation when I left, but oh well. :P

At this point, waves at everyone she has not yet mentioned. Mel, both the Kats, cep, pp, Edmund P, Narnia Girl, LADY LILN, Jo-Anna, CS, LISSA, PELS, Poggy, Ruby, Meadow, PON, The Royal Family, Eustace Girl, and big hugs to Valia and lysander,, the former of whom I have not missed, since I have been talking to her almost every day, but the latter of whom I have missed very much, as I have not "run into" him in absolute ages. Now, do forgive me if I've forgotten anyone. My memory is rather rusty. :P

I like Betsie's idea of searching for my name to see where I was mentioned/spoken too. You all make me rather queasy and quivvery inside with your missing me.
*thinks it was nice of Cor to think she should come back* Or something of that sort. :P
Queen Susan, I'm excited that you're excited that I'm part of NaNo. :D ;))

And yeah, Destined has been hiding out too lately. /:) *coughcough* It's sad. :((

Heh heh. Why the coughing? ;)) Ooh, and I saw another place where you were crying about me too. How nice of you. ;))

Speaking of Destined. Where are you? At your house, right?

Yup. ;) You mentioned wanting to learn how to do links in that post. Did you? Your catchup post was marvelous. :D

Alright. I have to leave. And I feel somewhat caught up. I'll read the last 10 pages or so when I post again, so I can see what all is going on in your lives. :D
Adios!!!

*Cor enters the Square (for the second time today!!) humming the main theme from Once Upon a Time in the West*

Well, I had been lurking around here and was about to close down and finish up school, when I noticed a new post by my good friend, Miss Destined. So, here I am responding to your post.

Hmm, I don't know, I might not be confused. Depends on what we were talking about. ;)) Fiddler on the Roof was good, though not one of my favorite musicals. I couldn't remember any of the songs after watching it, except for the "Rich Man" song.... For me, probably a 3 1/2 out of 5 movie. Of course, there are very few musicals that I actually like.

The English class is going very well. Last week I had to write a short paper on Jane Austen. I'm not sure how well I did on it..... :-ss

*is glad Destined thought it was nice of him to want her to stop by* That was a long sentence..... :p

*Vern lands near Destined and bows his head in greeting. Hello miss Destined! It has indeed been far too long since we have spoken! Cor has kept me informed on your well-being, though i must say it is much nicer to speak with you in person. How goes things in your cheese state? er, your state of cheese... no, that's not right... how goes things with you?*

Alright, we better get back to the castle before the Royal Father sends out a search party for us. He's been slightly more on edge about us staying out for long periods after that "Horsey" incident a while back.... *shakes head*

Anyway, Mortereve all!

Mortereve all! It's very wintry here today; we have almost a foot of snow and more falling! :-o All the schools are out, so we're taking a snow day as well. ;) I'm lovin' it! :D

Benjamin, I'm doing fantastic, thanks! :) What have you been doing lately?

What other scenes did you like in the books? I should reread them again. I haven't read Dragonspell since July.

Favorite scenes? That's hard to choose! I loved when each of the minor dragons hatched, of course. :) I love the scene in Dragonspell when Kale first meets Paladin, and in Dragonlight where

Spoiler
Wulder removes the egg from Toopka's chest and gives Sittiponder his sight.
I also like a lot of the humorous bits. ;)) What are some of your favorites?

You got your fourth snowfall yesterday?! Wait a minute, that is not right!

Heehee. ;)) *points to the top of her post* This is the snowiest October we've had in awhile; I'm starting to wonder what March (usually our biggest snow month) is going to look like now. ;)

Glad to hear your brother's birthday was fun! :)

*waves to johobbit* :)

*giggles at the Ruby-Winter show and demise of the jet* ;))

Weren't you the one who posted the lyrics to the song by Kutless? Well, if you did, that song is one of my favorites!!

Ooh, are you a Kutless fan? That's one of my favorite bands! :D

I really like listening to the song Placido Domingo did for the soundtrack of Hamlet. And while I don't think I'd call myself a fan, I don't mind listening to Josh Groban.

In Pace, right? I've heard that; it's truly beautiful. :) It's amazing how much power and emotion can be communicated through a song, even in a language I don't understand a word of. ;)

*skims a bit*

actually my camera looks a lot nicer than it is... I have to work with the different scenes to get what I want. But the zoom is the best of the features.

It looks like you're getting nice results! ;) The motion adjustment must be pretty good as well.

Tag football is so much fun! So is flag, although you really have to play that with a good-sized group. ;)
Brett Favre and the Vikings are doing quite well this year! :) I'm a bit envious of them having Adrian Peterson. ;)) Well, in pro football, I root for the New England Patriots and Denver Broncos, and in college my favorite teams are the USC Trojans and Florida Gators. :) I'm a Tim Tebow fan as well; he's really a neat guy! :) So if he wasn't on the team, would you not be a Gators fan?

I hadn't even thought of that :p I'll have to do that sometimes soon, thanks!

No problem! :) Hope you're able to watch them soon! (Very.) :p

I am almost done with Fellowship of the Ring!

So this is your first read? That's awesome; I'm so excited for you! :D What has your favorite part been so far?

I am truly amazed at how detailed Tolkien is! It is really helpful, you don't even have to imagine anything, it's already been imagined for you! SOOO unlike Lewis! Lewis really does leave so much to your imagination.

The detail that Tolkien put into everything about Middle-earth is astounding! :) Hmm, I know a lot of people feel the same way you do about Lewis' style of description vs. Tolkien's. I actually prefer Lewis' way of painting a picture but leaving the rest to you. Somehow, when I'm forced to imagine it for myself, the images become all the more vivid and haunting. ;) Watching Tolkien's vision unfold is still amazing, though! :-bd

Er, not sure what you mean? Are you talking about the situation with

Sorry I wasn't clear about that!

obviously glad to have the internet back...but I did enjoy the time without it. :) It was slightly different but still nice. :)

Being without Internet is really refreshing at times! I think it always has the potential to become more of a time-consumer than it should be, so a break helps with that, too. ;) (Although I know you didn't choose to be without it.) Glad that's working again for you, though! :)

*nods* I quite agree.

Is there anything you really didn't like about it?

Belle was always my favorite Disney Princess, Malkah! She's great! I loved her yellow dress, and I wanted to be her when I grew up!

I actually don't like the yellow dress very much ( ;)) ) but Belle herself is so different from the other Disney heroines, which I love. :) She's not a princess by birth, she's a bookworm, and her love story is gradual and based on friendship, rather than the usual love-at-first-sight cliche. :)

Happy birthday, eustacegirl! Hope you have a lovely day! :)

Have a blessed afternoon everyone; talk to you later! :)

Geeni:Tackle and Noseguard...

Awesome, good luck with first team! I always wanted to be noseguard, but unfortunately I was way too small (well, also considering I was eight...) so had I to deal with safety (I think that's what it is I kinda forget)

GREENLEAF!!! Welcome back! And how have you been? :D I haven't seen you over here since early, early September. Tsk, tsk, It's nearly November [-x .

Thanks! Yeah I know life just got really busy. Pretty good, thanks! And you?
Glad you're liking LotR! I'm at the part where they just left Rivendell :D

*waves back to greenleaf*

That's great you found the colors! I'll have to remember to use them soon. :]

*waves to Cep and Faun_Song*

Greenleaf: You got to see them in concert? Neat! :) (okay, so seeing any Christian band in concert would be neat, I think!) Hmm, I'm not entirely sure what album that particular song is from, sorry, but from what I've read online I think it's on the album "Hawk Nelson is my Friend".

I know, it was awesome! (yeah, as would be any Christian band in concert!) Cool, thanks I'll have to look that up. I think I saw Hawk Nelson shirts one time that had HN is my BFF on them :p

You've read Rangers Apprentice too Ben? Do you like them?

Greenleaf, now you can say "I was named after a poet and I didn't even know it!" ahaha ;)) I like the new avatar, Up was amazing! I have never seen such a cute, creative, inspiring and funny movie before. I can't wait for it to come out on DVD!

Haha, yeah! Thanks, I loved the movie too :D I think it comes out sometime in November...

greenleaf, I've been reading The Icebound Land and I was so shocked when I read the part with Halt saying bad things about the king and then getting banished from the kingdom for a year! And it was so sad when Crowley had to take away his oakleaf. :(

I know, I didn't like that part either, but I think he knew the King wouldn't banish him forever, he just needed a way to go after Will. Aw, when he took away his oakleaf it was terrible!

Happy Birthday Eusy!

In other news coach said the "I didn't do that bad" (He'll never tell you your good, just that you didn't do that bad) last night so thats very good and Noseguard is still up for grabs.

Haha, I know exactly how that is (that "You didn't do that bad")

Yeah, he did. I enjoyed that one, too, as I do all Pixar scores, but unfortunately I don't own any.
We haven't had any precipitation of any sort since the snow... it's just been cold and overcast.

I only have the "Up" one. (Because I fell in love with it after seeing it in theaters) but I love listening to all the credit music when I see the movies :] Have you seen WALL`E?
:| I hope more comes soon. It hasn't been too cold lately here though, so probably not much snow for a few more weeks. 8-|

*waves back to Greenleaf*

How are you doing? :]

*waves to PoN and Dennie* how are you both?

No problem! :) Hope you're able to watch them soon! (Very.) :p

Yeah me too, they look really good!

Have a great mortereve all!

Wow, 350 gallons?! Is it complicated to make it?

Hm, not too much. You have to cut out the really bad spots in the apples, but you can leave the skin and cores on. Then you run them through a grinder, then press them flat so all the juice runs out into buckets... and then you pour the buckets into a bigger container and fill jugs from that one. ;)) ...you use various different types of apples... and it takes some time of course. And LOTS of apples. But it's pretty fun--at least, once a year. ;)) Any more then that would be... too much. ;))

Haha! Yes, I have bought it. It is AMAZING! I really like the song Lucy. Sad though

Ah yes, Lucy is possibly my most favorite from the entire album! I've probably listened to it at least 75 times... Which may not seem like a lot... but it is. ;))

Yes, I do own a NWeb t-shirt, it was given to me as a present earlier this year... I think it was. :)

Oh, how cool. :D I think it'd be sort of neat to have one. ;)) But yeah. I don't, sadly.
I'm doing well, thanks for asking! :) Not a whole lot is new... Today is a normal school/practice piano/cleaning day. ;)) This Saturday is Oct. 31 and we're attending a "Reformation Day" celebration at a family-from-church's house. :D Have you heard of Reformation Day? Know what it is? :) We usually have a bonfire there every year on Ref. Day, and just have fun. ;)) So I'm looking forward to it. I'm not sure what will happen next year when it's on a Sunday... Maybe we'll have it a day early or late or something. :)

But I'll probably stick to singing in the shower mostly, while you sing while you press apples!! :D Oh, and I really like your avatar too! <3 Up!!

I think I'm becoming less nervous too over the years. ;)) I've sang in front of a few crowds though: 300 at my sister's wedding, maybe 100 at another event, and then just at a few Nursing Homes. :)
(Very oddly, I was once more nervous to sing at a Nursing Home then I was at the wedding!! I'm not sure why... but my knees were shaking at the Nursing Home. At the wedding I was fine.) ;)) It was rather... interesting.
And thanks! I love "UP" too!! :D

DESTINED!!!! (Was that enthusiastic enough?) ;) I've missed you horribly too! :(( *must reply to those PMs sitting in my inbox soon.* :p

Ooh, and I saw another place where you were crying about me too. How nice of you. ;))

;)) Thanks. :p I don't know what it is about you and Betsie, but both of you get that from me... a lot. ;))
Oh, and I think my eyes actually widened when I saw your post. ;)) In excitement mostly, not too much shock. :p
But anyway. I've missed you! Come back soon!!!!!!!!!!! (Please)

*waves to malkah and dodges the snowball* ;))
