Updates: April 9th

Hello Lovelies!

April Showers bring May flowers

No, I am not coming today with a RP post, unfortunately, not today. Like I wrote before, I have a lot going on and won’t be posting RP stories again until the 19th. Luckily that is only 10 days away, and I have several plots in mind!

But I just wanted to post and let you know about my new blog, sophiafgonzalez.wordpress.com. thetwotails.wordpress.com was looking for a someone to role-play a fictional character called Sophia, and I thought it would be fun and different from the Clique world. So I applied, and got in!

I’d really love it if you stopped by and read the descriptions on our blogs, so you get the main idea of what they are about. It sounds really fun, and I think you will all love it! Don’t forget to follow so you know when to read our first posts!

That is all for now, I hope you are all having a wonderful week!

I love you all to Pluto and back!

And The Fun Begins

Hello Lovelies!

I’m going to go ahead and tell you that I will probably be somewhat absent from WordPress from the 5th to the 15th, just because I am super busy with school! I’ll probably still be reading and commenting on posts, it is just posting I don’t really have time for.

Also, MissKrisSexySportsBabe and I will be holding a contest sometime in June/July, so I hope you all enter!

And yes, now a quick RP post! :)

………………………………………….

I handed the cashier my debit cart, as I pulled the bag onto my arm with the other 3 bags I had. Spring was coming so quickly, and my wardrobe need to be updated ASAP.

I had picked up some crops, colored shorts, ripped shorts, printed shorts, high waist shorts, studded shorts, lace shorts, ombre shorts…you name it, I had probably bought it within the last month. Besides, when I was done with my clothes at the end of the year (or two) I gave the ones I didn’t want anymore to a charity. So, by shopping I was helping others and myself–win-win situation!

I had also picked up a couple clutches, some crossbody’s, some flats, heels, tanks, tops, blouses, dresses…again, you name it and I probably have it. Of course, my mom had set a spending budget so I was watching the amounts and trying to make the most of what I had. I think I did a very good job.

As always, when I was finished I went over to Starbucks. No mall trip is complete without a Starbucks coffee! The whole PC had come today, so we all went over together, and all sat at the same table to gossip and to drink our coffee’s.

“So Dylan, didn’t you create some sort of list of fun things we can all do this summer?” Kristen asked, as soon as we sat down. “Yes, the wonderful list of 57 crazy things to do before summer ends,” I replied. We all giggled, then Massie said, “Can I see the list?”

I nodded and said, “Yeah, I have it saved on my phone. I’ll forward it to you all.” I picked up my iPhone 5 and a few seconds later, I heard their phones ding with a text.

“Number 1: Stargaze on a starry night,” Alicia read aloud.

“Go swimming in the middle of the night–we should do that at my house next Friday,” Massie said. “It’s number 7″.

We scrolled up and down the list, laughing at the funny ones and thinking of when we could do them all. “I love number 34,” Claire laughed. No doubt, she was probably already thinking of things to say when we prank called someone (number 34). “Lets do number 46, when we’re finished with out drinks!” I exclaimed.

46 > Go to the mall and take a video of you and your friends walking the wrong way on the escalator.

We made our way over to the escalators, and Claire went  first.
I tried to take a pic, but I was laughing so hard at other people’s reactions that it ended up kind of blurry. Here it is anyway:

Afterwards we all went over to my house and we painted our nails and watched random funny YouTube videos. Nothing out of the ordinary, just girls being girls. :)

Old Memories

Marvil Home

April 27th, 2013

4:28PM

………………..

“I’m home!” I shouted, walking in the door. I had just gotten home from Drivers Ed–it feels weird, realizing that I get my learners permit next year. I’ve grown up being chauffeured anywhere I’ve wanted, just about whenever I’ve wanted. But as soon as I get my learners permit, I can drive myself around. When the class ends I get my first learners permit, but I have to have an adult in the car with me when driving. I also have to log a certain amount of hours, so I have to remember to keep track of time.

I shivered and looked at the thermostat. I turned it up a little and hoped it would warm up soon, although I like the cold I do have a limit and when it gets too cold I act like we’re going through another ice age. And when it gets too hot, I act like we’re in the middle of a desert and I haven’t drank anything in days. Yes, I am crazy. But aren’t we all?

I could almost hear Jamie and Riley downstairs, tumbling around to their heart’s desire. They were so excited when we moved in, I don’t think they miss the old house at all. As long as they can do cartwheels and flips, they’re okay.

Every time I look around I think about how big I think our house is, then I realize our old house was much bigger. I think my mom made the right choice when she said she wanted to move into a smaller house, because the current one was too big. It was. It was nice, and I loved it, but there was too much extra space. It felt empty and lonely. There I go again, saying things you might or might not understand.

I walked up the stairs and into my bedroom, shutting the door behind me. I left my purse on my desk, and hopped on my bright, colorful bed and opened up my Mac Book, and immediately checking my email. I shuffled through the emails, deleting spam and junk mail, replying to the important things, then adding some to another folder to read later, and then just reading updates from magazines, Twitter, Facebook, etc.

While searching, I saw ads pop up everywhere. But one caught my eye. It was a small little box, with the classic drama faces and some text about acting classes at the local Westchester children’s theatre. I stared at it a moment, it bringing back memories. When I was six years old, I took dance. When I was nine, I quit.

I had realized that it was because it wasn’t the dancing I had loved, it was being on stage and for a moment being able to live some other life, and telling a story. That is all dance is, a story through body movements. But I’ve always liked using my voice, and I remember when I quit that I wanted to start acting.  But I never did. I still can’t remember why, but I what I do remember is pushing the thought away, and trying to become interested in other things.

I think it might have been because whenever I start something, I usually doesn’t last for more than a few years. Then I’ll get bored, I’m not challenges enough, it doesn’t quite feel “me”.

I smiled at the ad, remembering how when I was 7 I had gotten my sisters dressed up, and we practiced a little musical together that I had come up with. I guess I had always loved drama, before I even knew it.

I clicked on the ad and it took me to a webpage. I started reading, finding addresses, costs, times, levels, ages, anything I could find on it. After about 20 minutes of navigating through the website, I found out there was a class starting next Thursday, it was twice a week (Tuesdays and Thursdays) at 4:30pm, and it lasted two months. After the two months, you could drop out or continue.

I printed up a page with all the information, and decided to ask my mom later. I still had an interest in acting, and I thought I should give it a chance. Everything deserves a chance.

57 Fun Things to do with Your Friends or by Yourself

Hello lovelies!

Summer is coming up so fast–only about 6 more weeks of school! So I decided I wanted to make this a summer to remember.

So, I wanted to do a bunch of things with my best friend. Soul sister. Girl I’ve known since I was five. Problem is, she lives 4 hours away from me, so I usually only see her about 6 of the 52 weeks in a year. But it is okay, because the rest of the time we email, IM, text, chat on the phone, etc. so it feels like we’re never apart.

So I wanted to make the most of the two or three weeks she’ll be visiting this summer, and squeeze in every fun thing I could. So I came up with a few of my own and found some online from a ton of places, and created a list of 57 fun things. I finished and thought, “I should share this WordPress!” I mean, we all want to do a ton of fun things. Plus, it is 2013 and 13 is one of my lucky numbers. So I just have to make this an awesome summer. Want a peek into what I’m doing? Just look at the list below, I hope it helps you and your friends have some fun this summer!

57 Fun Things To Do This Summer

 

1 > Stargaze on a starry night. Whether it is from a blanket in the back yard, a pool chair next to your pool (if you have one), from a tent, or even from the top of the roofthis can be pretty fun.

 

2 > Go to a theme park and try to ride EVERYTHING! Try to go with your friends, and literally try and spend the whole day there, from when it opens to when it ends.

 

3 > Play in the sprinklers outside–At night! Awesome, right?

 

4 > Go to a music festival.

 

5 > Create a treasure hunt for someone. Rip a page from a library book and replace with a clue with a location on it. The next location have another clue, etc. Put the page at the end of the hunt. (Can also be done other ways, that’s just an example.)

 

6 > Play around randomly in the rain (Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it is about learning to dance in the rain!)

 

7 > Go swimming in the middle of the night…not sure if that is possible, since I don’t have a pool! :(

 

8 > Write a novel

 

9 > Go to a thrift store with friends, and set a spending limit and see if you can create a whole outfit

 

10 > Play tennis in the middle of the night–in the driveway, of course (unless you have your own tennis court or something)

 

11 > Do an amazing chalk drawing on someones sidewalk in the middle of the night (or in the day, when they aren’t home)

 

12 > Spend a whole day faking a random accent. See if you can fool people.

 

13 > Spend an entire day in a grocery store. Tiring, but worth trying!

 

14 > Write messages on note cards. Stick the note cards in balloons and blow them up. Hang the balloons on friends/neighbors porches. When they pop the balloon they read the secret message.

 

15 > Have a movie party in your backyard using a movie projector and a sheet.

 

16 > Make a “free compliments” stand. When people come up to you, pick something about them that you like and compliment them. It will make other people happy, and make you feel good, too.

 

17 > Pick wildflowers and then play ding-dong-ditch, leaving the bouquets on people’s doorsteps. It will brighten their day.

 

18 > Stand along a street and hold up a sign that says “Honk if [insert something here]“. It could be “Honk if you love squirrels” or “Honk if you think you’re awesome” or “Honk if you love signs that say to honk” or even “Honk if… I give up. Just honk. Because I SAID SO!” :) Something random and weird.

 

19 > Go fruit/berry picking

 

20 > Go bowling

 

21 > Go to a summer concert (One Direction, Taylor Swift, Imagine Dragons, etc.)

 

22 > Go to a baseball game

 

23 > Learn to play an instrument

 

24 > Try Tree climbing

35 > Try a new restaurant in your area

 

36 > Play hide and go seek in the dark

 

37 > Go to the zoo

 

38 > Make home-made candy

 

39 > Go around in an abandoned field or some woods and just walk around and listen to the quietness, and just relax.

 

40 > Come up with a really cool nail-art design

 

41 > Make a splatter paint canvas in your room theme colors, and hang it in your room.

 

42 > Create some custom TOMS (order a white pair, or any color you wish, and use beads, fabric paint, studs, lace, rhinestones, anything you can think of to personalize them to be completely YOU).

 

43 > Go to a midnight movie at your movie theater.

 

44 > Go to Sky High, which is basically this trampoline place. I can’t really explain it, try to google it!

 

45 > Sit on your roof with your friends, and if someone gives you a weird look from the street, yell “We are waiting to board the mothership!” Make sure it is a one story house, and that you are safe! I am not to be held responsible if you get hurt!

 

46 > Go to the mall and take a video of you and your friends walking the wrong way on the escalator.

 

47 > Leave post-it notes in bathrooms, on products at the store, any random place you can think of–each of them saying something nice like “Never forget how beautiful you are” or “Just keep believing–all good things take time”.

 

48 > Do a Color Run

 

49 > Go into a store where you know employees will ask you if you’re finding everything okay. When someone does, gasp and say, “You can actually see me?!” And run out of the store.

 

50 > Take dog treats to the dog park. See how many dogs are your new best friend. :)

 

51 > Try to upcycle some old clothes you don’t like/want anymore.

 

52 > Take one picture everyday, starting from June 1st to August 31st.

 

53 > Take some pebbles and create a heart in a random place where people can see it (NOT the road!).

 

54 > Wash your parents cars, with your best friend! Then go do her parents cars. :) It is a nice way to cool off in the heat.

 

55 > Spend an entire day at the mall.

 

56 > Get fit, eat healthy!

 

57 > Keep a notebook, and fill it with the days you did these, so you can  always remember them! :) Also video tape everything you do, and at the end of the summer edit it onto a really cool movie and show it to all you friends, invite them all over and watch it. Don’t forget the popcorn!

I love you all to Pluto and back!

To all my Lovelies…

Hello lovelies!

I’m sorry I haven’t written in a while, I have been super busy!

The April/May Blog of the month is being renamed the May/June Blog of the month, and will be announced next week! I promise! I’m working on some things for my blog, and I’m hoping it’ll all be finished a week from tomorrow. A new post, new/updated pages, a makeover, and new/updated widgets. It’s all coming! :)

Plus, guess what? This is my 100th post! I was hoping my 100th post would be a bit more special, but I guess that’ll be post 101! :)

Until then, I love you all to Pluto and back!

Hello There, Spring

Hello Lovelies!

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter! I had a pretty good time, but I am definitely exhausted from the last few days! I babysat, had some changes done in my room (had a room divider built), and tried to fit in some exercise too.

So what do I love about spring? Well, I’m a clean freak and spring is the perfect time to clean! Perfect air quality, not to hot and not to cold, and it all smells fresh and makes you want to get moving! You can spring clean your room, bathroom, closet, etc. but have you ever thought about the others things that could be cleaned? Your phone (extra apps you don’t need could be deleted), your make-up (make sure it is still good), and yes, even your blog!

For me, I will be making some changes to my blog. I will be updating all of my pages (probably deleting and adding some) trying to make my stories more alive (lately I haven’t had a lot of time to perfect them) and probably a few more make-overs. Yes, I do love make-overs! :)

For me, spring is a great time to “reinvent” myself. I’m not sure if that is the right word for it…but you get the point. You know how sometimes you’ll see movies and you’ll think “I wish that was my life!” Well, sometimes I do that because I love how planned and structured their lives are. For me, my parents aren’t very strict and when they are they are too strict. So I think instead of trying to make the people around me change, why not try to change myself.

Now let me explain before you wonder if I’m going crazy or something. I didn’t until just now realize that sometimes I try to change those around me, to make everything easier. Hey, we’ve probably all done it sometime in our life and we’ll do it again before we die. Because, well, we’re human! It is natural to do that.

So why try to change others to make myself happy? That doesn’t make sense and won’t work very well, and kind of…hmm… arrogant? Not having a very good day with words, now am I. Just can’t seem to find the perfect words.

Anyway…. So I’m just going to, well, not change myself, but improve myself. Change my way of thinking, and such.

Okay, I will no longer bore you with my complaints and lack of being able to explain things with the right words. :)

The Lost Get Found [Part 2]

Hello Lovelies!

I hope you are all having a fabulous March!

Marvil House

Continued

I had been watching a movie on Netflix, waiting for news of Jamie. Really, I was sick of waiting. What? One minute everything is dramatic and the next it is slow and boring and….plain. Like nothing happened, yet it still did. Grrrr, those times when I don’t know how to explain!

Pretty much I was a mess. I kept on doing everything I needed to do, I had even managed to get out of the house and have a PC meeting at Starbucks. It had only been three days since Jamie went missing, and everyone was sure she was going to be found soon. So did I.

(Sorry, I had to show a pic of my frappe.)

I was right. The next day, a police man knocked at our door. My mom opened it to see the police officer, with Jamie next to him. She hugged Jamie, and I had a feeling that she wouldn’t be letting her out of sight anytime soon.

They had the criminal in court a few days later, and it was decided he was guilty and was sentenced to 15 years in jail for kidnapping. My mom and sisters had been discussing the details, but really I didn’t want to know. I kind of just wanted to forget about it. But my sister had been kidnapped, how was I supposed to forget?

Brayden and the PC all understood how I felt perfectly. They were the only ones who happened tried to talk to me about it, because they understood that I really didn’t want to talk about it. I’m stubborn that way.

I am so excited about the upcoming summer, I can’t wait to go canoeing! It isn’t as bad as some make it sound. You’re not going to fall out, or tip the boat over, or spend forever just trying to paddle a few feet in front of you, or drop the paddle. Actually, I take that last one back. I did that once when I was 6. But I was 6–so as long as you hold on it’ll be okay.

But really, it is fun. Trust me. If you haven’t tried it yet, put that on your list. It is taking a bit longer than I expected for Westchester to thaw out.

Currently on my schedule I have shopping with the PC (some of the cutest spring lines are coming up! Eep!), a day in the city with Brayden (more on that later!), family picnic the day after Easter (like, Cousins, Aunts, Uncles and all) and Callie needs to be groomed. She has such pretty fur, but it needs to be groomed. My procrastination has gotten to me and I haven’t even made the appointment yet. I really need to.

So slowly everything is coming back to normal. I’m considering learning an instrument. What do you think? I’d love to take voice lessons, but I’m afraid I’m not a good singer. At all. And I’m not sure if I can get better. What do you think? But in actual instruments I’m thinking Piano. Well, voice is an instrument just a different type. Guitar would be fun, but it is so common. So leave a comment and tell me what you think! :)

Just playing around with a random instrument! :)

I hope you enjoyed the closing to the kidnapping!

That last paragraph wasn’t just for the story. In really life I want to learn in instrument.  But I am so confused! I have no idea what to learn! So if you have any ideas I’d love to know! :)
