I"M STILL ALIVE!!!!!

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

I"M STILL ALIVE!!!!!

I"M STILL ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I have changed. I went to Middle Earth, and I LOVE it (in other words, I am reading the Lord of the Rings)

*SPOILER ALER*

I'm on the last book, and on October 25th, Legolas Day we're going to watch The Fellowship of the Ring. My FAVE characters are (Blackberry, don't spill the beans) are Legolas and Frodo. I am NOT a big fan of Aragorn. Or Gandalf. Or Gimli. The hobbits are but but, you know, ELVES are WAAAAAY better. I like Galadriel too. I was really mad when I found out that Aragorn is THE king. He is a bit full of himself. Like Gandalf says (in the book) this is Aragorn blablabla heir of this guy blablabla. But then he goes, and this is Legolas. IT DRIVES ME CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Legolas has a title too you know! He is PRINCE Legolas GREENLEAF not legolas. (I didn't capatlize that "l" for a reason) Now you're probrably wondering why I even like the Lord of the Rings books anyway. They are INTERESTING not necessarily EXCITING. I.HATE.THE.GREY.HAVENS. WHY THE HECK DID FRODO GO THERE?? Sorry Admin.You are all probrably wondering why this isn't in Blab about Books. It WOULD be except, I'm not JUST going to talk abot LOTR! I'm gonna talk about POTC (Pirates of the Caribbean). We watched the first movie on BBC three. It's a British kids channel, and guess what? They have strict NO advertising to children laws in the UK. Sooooooooooooo 3 STRAIGHT hours of POtC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yo peps I also finnished the MEAP (Michigans standardized testing) ALL today!!!! All three days, done in like 6 hours! I told my mom: I AM NOT DOING THAT EVER AGAIN! LOL. We had to miss the first two days, so we were only there for the last. It was fun. BECAUSE I GO TO ONLINE SCHOOL, I can't really socialize with other kids. That's why we kids who go to virtual schools love 'em so much. 

I'd should stop writing now. MORE TO COME SOON. and happy Golden Birthday Sis!!! 

-FEED or FOL (I prefer FOL)

Oh right, I forgot. The Return of the King's book cover just HAD to be the film cover and have Aragorn on it, right?

My friend says he has over-reactive sweat glands, because it always look like he's just had a shower LOL

I have always loved all the characters in the books.

In the films, however, my adoration of Gandalf and Aragorn (sorry) and Legolas did skyrocket. I always liked Frodo in the books, but I HATED Elijah Wood's portayal of him! He CANNOT act, and messed up the character like crazy!

The characters do get much more alive in the films, for better or worse. Aragorn has little personality in the books, but you gotta love him in the films; Viggo Mortensen is more like Aragorn than Aragorn is, if that makes any sense at all, and not everyone loves him because he's King.

By the way--welcome back.

There is something so amazingly charming about the way Viggo Mortensen plays Aragorn, you can't help liking him--or swooning.

And I hate him? Yeah, and that I watched the movie the other day, and I FELT SO BAD FOR FRODO :( EVERYONE HATES HIM AND I CRIED! IT'S JUST MEAN.

Oh, hi again, Emma/FEED ME!

Your sister Blackberry E did not answer a ton of questions for here when she was picked as an interviewee on the CBer Interviews thread. The questions aimed at her started over on this part of the thread at Theo's discretion (http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/chirpatcricket/node/119096?page=5) and were neglected from that point on out. So, if Blackberry could check them out and reply to them that'd be great, thanks!

So how's it been going? Been FED properly?
