Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

From looking at

From looking at some of my old posts, it appears that I don't have much of a personality. I do though, in real life. Here are some "get to know you" facts about myself; feel free to post some of your own. :)

1. Purpleness=awesomness

2. My nickname is Herb. Herb was an alien that came from outer space whenever Julia had to do dishes. She got her beautiful name from the first thing she saw on Earth- a bottle of Herb Garden salad dressing. :)

3. I do not own an ipod *sniffle* (how much do the nanos cost now, anyway?)

4. I play violin in an orchestra.

5. Me loves soccer. :)

6. *snicker* I can annoy the heck out of people by talking in odd, random voices.

7. I. Do. Not. Like. Spongebob. Squarepants. *growls* *chews Spongebob* *swallows* *grins* *repeats*

8. I <3 Ella Enchanted. Book, not movie.

9. French fries dipped in ice cream taste really good. Who else has tried that? :)

10. I love taking pictures! I'll post one of my doggy someday. :)

Purpleness is the essence of distilled awesomeness. And I love French fries and ice cream. Chicken nuggets and ice cream are good, too.

1) Are you kidding me? I adore spongebob.

2) One of the things that annoys me the most is when you really work up your whole self to burp really loudly, and then nothing happens.

3) I live on a small dairy farm.

4) One of my dog's name is Paul.

5) My i-pod music consists mostly of Mika albums, french rap, Death Cab for Cutie, Andrew Bird, Snow Patrol, and other random songs.

6) when I was in 6th grade, my friends and I made a club called Random Dancing, if that tells you anything.

7) I am most energetic at night, such as now.

8) I enjoy rolling around on a huge green exercise (I just had to ask my mom how to spell that word twice, and she became quite distressed) ball while getting no apparent exercise out of it.

9) I love writing.

10) I love Switzerland.

11) This weekend I am going to a camp in the mountains with my friends where there is a very tall zip line over a lake that we go on.

12) I am being home schooled because we don't know when we are moving to  a new farm (:[) and I may miss my sports more than my friends. Actually, I miss them about the same amount

13) I wore an afro wig all day today.

Oh my gosh, this is so creepy!? My FAVORITE FAVORITE color is purple, I LOVE soccer, strongly dislike spongebob, Ella Enchanted is my favorite book ever, and I'm Catholic!! Wow..........

By the way, I'm reading an awesome book series... The first book is The Shadow of the Bear by Regina Doman. They are retellings of classic fairytales, super exciting, and Catholic.

Nice to know you!  :)

Let's see... I'll just plunge right in then, shall I?

 

Herb, interesting...  :)

I think the nanos are like, well, to be honest, I have no idea.  Why don't you look on the apple website?  Are you afraid you'll see too many things you want?  :) 

That's cool that you're in an orchestra.  :)

I totally, ONE HUNDRED percent-ly, agree about SBSP.  IT'S SO STUPID.  Er, sorry Admin, sometimes you just gotta express yourself, you know?  :) 

Hmm... Gail Carson Levine, love Love LOVE her books!!!!!  Have you read Fairest?  I love the marble toe, that's so funny.  :)  Or what about The Two Princesses Of Bamarre?  Ok, I better stop here, or I'll keep going until I've listed basically every book she's written.  I'll admit I've even read her silly fairy tales, because I love her writing so much. :P  Ooh, and I was at the book store and saw she's got a new book out, and had to do all I could to refrain from buying it.  :D :D :D

OH MY GOSH!!!!!  I WAS SEARCHING (oops) (ok, PICTURE all caps here:) to make sure I spelled her name right (which I did, thank you very much), and I saw that they are going to make a movie of The Two Princesses Of Bamarre!!!!!!!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!!

I'm SO excited!!!!!!!  :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D 

I don't remember if I've done ice cream, but definitely milkshakes, and LOVED it, even though I think it's disgusting. (the thought.  It tastes spectacular) 

 

Ooh, I love taking pictures too.  Today we wandered around in nearby towns, and I took lost of pictures of fall foliage and flowers!!  So pretty!!!  Maybe I'll post some sometime soon too.

!. I like purple, too!  But I like green snakes on Claudia's arm more than purple.

@. My dad calls me Queen of Vague.  I am ery vague sometimes.  I prefer to call myself Me.  Because Me is the beginning of my name.  Sometimes people call me Mead.  Or Sissy, Autumn used to call me that.

#. There is one ipod that my family shares.  It used to be three.  The other two broke.  And why do I have underwear in my lap?

$. Hmm...  I used to play violin.  But after the two month long trip to Texas I forgot all the songs that I had learned.  And my arm had grown.  And now I turned ten at Texas!  I forgot what day we went to Juarez... 

%. Me not understarnd soccer.  It makes more sense if you call it football.  YOu use your foot to kick balls around and into goals.  But I do love books.  They are AMAZING.  So book-like.  Plates are plate-like.  Thats just what I said at a wedding.

^. Oh, I don't annoy people while doing that.  I actually freak them out, as River said.  But I do believee I freak River out and annoy Autumn, dad, mom, Luna.  I enjoy talking in weird voices.  I usually sing "poop for peace" or "If it's pee, let it be/If it's poop, flush the goop" or, maybe "lalalalalalalala" or some other random sounding thing.

&. Spongbob Squarepants is so STUPID!!!!!!!!!!  (sorry if that's not apropriate admins.  You can change the word to annoying if you think that I can't use that word.  :D)  He has an annoying laugh.  One of my friends said she wanted to marry him.  WHY?!??!!?  MARRY HIM!!  An annoying little spong?  Eh...  *makes a weird, groosed out face*

*. I've tred to find that book in my library, couldn't find it.  I found Fairest, then I had to leave and my dad said I couldn't get anymore books.

(. I haven't tried that.  But I have tried cherry's dipped in ketchup.

!). I love taking pictures, too!!  Maybe I'll post my creek or back yard someday.  :D  Or Quinn, my dog.  Or Dawn, my kitten.  Or any of my animals.  Even Casadi, who is fifteen and still runs around with Quinn outside.  Casadi is a fifteen year old dog.
