Hi.

So... yeah. I've been at camp, which is why I haven't been posting. But now I'm home. Yayy.

The first thing I notice about the blog is that there seems to be a certain lack of blog spirit, as shown by the shortness of recent posts. ［-hypocrite-] At first, I was like, "Oh, hey, someone should give them a nice little dose of Curly Fry spirit!" But then I was like, "Oh, wait. Yeah, not me." (And that sums up the past bit for you nicely.)


Anyway.


Uh. Not much has happened. Oh, yeah, except that A Very Potter Sequel came out TWENTY TWO HOURS AGO! And I've had stuff going on today, so I haven't seen it [yet]. I'm probably going to devote my night to watching AVPS. (But, really, I haven't really done much. The only legit thing I've done is soccer conditioning. Lots and lots and frikkin lots of it. And I edited Virgil's prologue. But that's about it.)


... and I guess we're not doing the questions thing. Whatevs, cool.


With all due respect,
House

Ah, the Joys of Shipwreck Camp

Hi, guys. Today's post has been brought to you by the incredibly ancient computer at my mom's work. It's so old that it uses Windows 2000; therefore, there's only Internet Explorer on the darn thing. I'm already missing Firefox and its nice, if annoying, spellcheck. Oh, and the computer totally butchers font, so that everything looks weird and pixelly. Blah. >.<
AND the keyboard is covered in this crusty, dusty, sligtly yellow-white old gunk that is absolutely disgusting. THe mouse has some of the stuff on it too, but it's slightly better. Except that the bits of gunk on the mouse are sticky as well. Which is also disgusting.
See what I'm putting up with just to post this? Gosh, I must love you guys.
[Actually, I'm posting 'cause I'm bored with nothing else to do. Heh.]
So, for the next eight days (as in, until Friday of this week and then from Monday to Friday of next week), I shall be attending this thing called Shipwreck Camp. It's a local, non-sleepaway affair, so don't worry--I will still be around. Basically, the premise is something like, "if you found a hypothetical shipwreck, how would you hypothetically go about salvaging it?" and stuff. For the past two days, we've been learning about the basics of marine archaeology and shipwreck survival and boatbuilding (with plastic soda bottles).
Speaking of plastic soda bottles, today there was an activity where we split into groups and built a not-more-than-twelve-feet-square boat using plastic bottles (not just soda ones, actually; there were some square juice bottles and some gallon milk jugs in the mix), plastic bags, one roll of duct tape, and some bamboo sticks.
My group's was, I'm pleased to say, was the best and most seaworthy. Ours actually had a working sail; however, there was barely any wind and so it couldn't really go anywhere. It was sort of a catamaran-like structure, with one giant more-or-less-square sail made out of a white trash bag. It was pretty cool.
For lack of a better name, we decided to call it the "Gilligan." However, the person in my group who made the sign spelled "Gilligan" wrong, so it ended up being the "Gillian." *sigh*
Tomorrow, the camp's going to canoe in a marsh. Lovely.

Now, a different topic.
Yesterday, while coming home, I heard on the radio that NASA is going to hibernate (aka totally shut down) Spirit [the Mars rover, doncha know] for the Martian winter. There's so much dust on Spirit's solar panels that it doesn't have enough energy to heat itself electrically (which is what it's done in the past few winters). Also, even after the winter's over, Spirit's probably never going to move again--its wheels are all really messed up and stuff. But NASA's still going to use it as a weather station or something. Poor Spirit. THe other rover, Opportunity, is apparently having better luck; sometimes, a few stray breezes blow off some of the dust coating its solar panels.
This xkcd comic sums up my feelings quite well: http://xkcd.com/695. (Poor Spirit. It's okay, little rover. I think you did a really good job.)
It's been six years since NASA sent Spirit and Opportunity up to Mars, y'know. Six years. Wow. I remember when they were launched (gods, that makes me feel so old). . . It's passed pretty quickly, really. Huh. Six years.
*mumbles incoherently for quite a while*

Less than a month to go until my birthday!! ^.^

I guess I'll just leave it at that.

[I agree with Virgil that the whole "asking questions" thing is getting old. Can we do anything else? Another theme week, maybe, now that everybody's regained use of a computer? DISCUSS IN COMMENTS.]

Oh, How I've Missed You All!

Momo is back!!!!! *Applause, cheers, screams of happiness!*. Well, I'm back from a lovely month at camp. It was so awesome, and I have so much to tell you guys! 

First of all, I would like to say "thank you" to xiy and Virgil for writing the only letters. I saw House in the third week there so she didn't technically have to write me....but Lynda and Carrie! I am heartbroken! Oh well. I'll live. Besides, the mail I got was super slow in coming (it took forever to reach me), and I'm sure you were all so busy. 

Second of all, I was going to buy you guys presents, but I'm not a money tree. Instead I just found a ton of 4-6 leaf clovers that you guys can choose from (I want the 6-leafer!!!!!) when I see you next. 

Third of all... well, I actually didn't have a third point. Hm. Oh! I have something interesting! The portfolio with all the work we did in the month that I was at camp weighs four fricking pounds! I weighed it at the airport while I was waiting to get checked in. It's pretty intense. 

I've noticed that all the posts have gotten immensely short. Summer must be really kicking in for you guys. It feels like it just started for me! Haha. Yesterday I was at the beach in Ocean City, NJ with all of the cousins from my mom's side (17 to be exact), and it was so nice. I had to buy a new swimsuit though because both of mine got jacked up at camp. One got icky from the icky lake and the other got stretched out from something. I am guessing the sauna. And yes, we do have a sauna at my camp. Booyah!* At the place where I got my new bathing suit, they only had bikinis/tankinis (which are worse than bikinis) so I got a bikini and some boogy board short things. The only teensy problem was that because I was in the Ocean, which has waves, the bottoms kept almost falling off! I have no butt. Which can be sometimes problematic. 

Speaking of Oceans, I couldn't help but notice that no one mentioned the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico being fixed! It's so exciting! Now they just have to clean up the millions of tons of oil that leaked out! Yippee!! I actually learned a lot about this at camp because for my class' third Projekt projekt project (sorry, still in German spelling mode) we had to read a ton of articles about in German and then debate about how much BP would have to pay. There were two sides, BP and the people. I was BP. We lost. And we have to pay $30 million. *sigh* It was a really cool project though, and I got a good grade. 

Not only did I get a good grade from camp, but I managed to get 3 free t-shirts! I pretty much made the store bankrupt because they really only sell about 3 t-shirts a day. Bwahaha! My nerdiness makes people bankrupt! Woot!

I think that was about all that I have to say. I like the new format of the page. You can tell Virgil made the slideshow thing at the top. Tee hee. Actually, House could have made it too, but I am pretty sure Virgil made it. 

I am in that picture somewhere. But unless you know me in person, you don't know where I am!!!!! Hahahahaha! And I am wearing fancy clothes! I am sure House approves of my fanciness.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand Questions:

1. Have you seen Toy Story 3?

2. Would you like to come see it with me sometime?

3. Guess what kind of hat I got from Norwegian people? (House may not answer)

Lerv,

Momo :D


*Since when do you say "booyah"...? O_o

Momo's Letter!

Ah! A ray of light in our too-hot-summer existence!
Momo has sent us a letter from camp!
[Now, I know this isn't my day to post, but, heck, 's an exciting event, right?]
Below is my [xiy's] transcription of said letter. 
All spelling and grammar has been preserved.
---
To My Dearest Curly Fries:
June 24, 2010


Hello, everybody! This is Momo...if you couldn't already tell. I am sitting here on the top bunk of my lonely bunkbed here at camp, and decided I should write a letter. Right now it is nap time here, but I don't do naps. I am being serenaded by the lovely "cawings" of crows/ravens and loons. It's actually getting quite annoying. How was Virgil's birthday, I'm guessing you already celebrated it because we have snail mail here...and you'll probably get this in a month or something. Camp is so far really fun. I'm here for High School credit so we have actual classes. I am in the highest class (WOOT, WOOT) and we are talking about Youth Culture. Our first project is coming up this week, we'll have 5 in all. I'm also in the newspaper group, out first paper comes out tomorrow. We started yesterday...the school newspaper should try brainstorming, writing, printing/distributing a newspaper in 3 days (and in another language). The only bad thing about the newspaper here is that we work on computers with internet, but we can't use the internet for fun!!! :(
Alright, now to make this letter more personalized, I will write you each a little letter:


To Carrie: Hi!!! I hope you are having a fun summer! You would really like this one girl in my house, you are really similar! I hope you and "A" are still together and not being naughty!


To House: Dude!!! House! Your camp is GHETTO! It's actually a Christian camp (haha) that was transformed. The food is supposedly not great and it makes you constipated, but a 7 yr.-old told me that soo...
P.S. I'm sure Easy has told you all about it...


To Lynda: Hi, buddy! Are you surviving your two lovely siblings? I decided to sent this letter to your house because I figured you'd be most excited...you get excited easily. Anyway, when House gets mad at me, I nominate you to say "Easy" a lot. :)


To Virgil: Happy Birthday! I hope you had a wonderful time celebrating with the Curly Fries! One of my classmates gets to meet J. K. Rowling this summer, I thought you'd like to know. Have fun at Infinitus!


To xiy: Hello, xiy! How have you been? Have you been keeping busy? I do hope you posted Virgil's birthday picture, it was super cool. Don't get bored, OK? I miss your witty comments! Bye!


Okay, I'll have to start homework (yes, I have homework, but it's fun) soon. I expect letters soon, or perhaps one GIANT letter! I hope someone posts this...


Questions:
1. Do you have my address?
2. Did this come reasonably quickly?
3. Without doing anything to in any way help you answer this... Hast du Mich verstanden?

Frickkk Why Do People Wake Up This Early

"Women's intuition is surprisingly accurate." 

—Xu Xiaobin's effing long [but good] novel [that I just finished], Feathered Serpent

Dear world,

You wake up too bloody early. Legitimately. Like, you're all up in the /morning/. What's wrong with you? Sheesh. I tried my hand at getting up this early [8:00 am], and in my personal opinion, it sucks major butt. But whatever.
I think the only people excused from this letter are the people who have to get up this early for, like, a job, or something. Or, like, if you live somewhere where you have to, like, tend the cattle or fetch water that's fifteen frikkin miles away. Or something.
Kisses,
House

So... yeah. You might have inferred by now that (1) today, I woke up much more early than I usually do, and (2) I'm not enjoying it very much. In fact, I'd say (3) it kinda sucks. Because I'm cold. But whatever.

My dad is behind me watching Supersize Me (2004), one of my most favourite documentaries of, like, ever. He's in the very beginning of it, commentating as Morgan goes along, because we've both seen it before. Right now, they're playing "Fat Bottomed Girls," by Queen. Great song right there, that is.

Uh. So what else has changed since my last post...? Well, Independence day is drawing nearer, as is the time when I must go to camp.
Oh, yeah!
Camp.
Imma be there next week and the week after that, so I won't be able to post. I know you'll miss me. Try not to miss me too much.

Last night, I watched the hundredth episode of one of the best television programmes of ever, Ace of Cakes. The crew designed a cake that had a little plastic roller coaster going through it in honour of the opening of a new, gigantic, amazing, awesome, amazing, awesome, and did I mention awesomely gigantic and gigantically awesome? roller coaster, The Intimidator.

Yeaaaaaaaaaaa

Throughout the show, they reminisced through cute little video montages about the past 100 episodes and how crazy amazing it's been. The show ended with Mary Alice working her philosopher side and saying how she thought that a roller coaster is the perfect metaphor for their bakery, Charm City Cakes. (Which is usually what I think of when I hear "Tri-C," btw.)

Yeah. That's about it.

Bye. See you in, like, three weeks ^_^

With all due respect,
House

[An hour and a half later:] Crap, I forgot the questions.
1) List the last three books you've read.
2) Do you have any plans for the Fourth of July?
3) Do you like wearing flip-flops?
4) If given the chance, would you ride The Intimidator?
5) Do you watch Ace of Cakes?
6) Cupcakes or cake?
7) Cookies or cake?
8) Android or iPhone?

[An hour after posting questions:] Oh, hey. Labels would be nice.

Birthdays and Bagels and Books... Oh My!

Hello! Today is Saturday, June 26. Do you know what that means? (That's a rhetorical question, since I'm about to answer it anyways.) MY BIRTHDAY IS IN FOUR FREAKING DAYS.

(The song "Different As Can Be" just came on iTunes on shuffle. This makes me happy.)

People always talk about birthdays as if they're a great thing, but I don't really like them all that much. I like being a year older, one year closer to being allowed to drive/vote/legally purchase alcohol/etc, but I don't really like the idea of my actual birthday. I guess I'm excited for the presents, because I always get plenty of gift cards for bookstores, and I love buying books. 

You see, everyone says that a birthday is "your day" and that you can do whatever you want, but it's quite a bit different when you have to share your birthday with a twin. It's just another day when I have to figure out "compromises" (Me: I like chocolate cake! "Kate": I like yellow cake! Parent: *buys yellow cake*) and listen to Kate jump around for the five minutes in which she is older than me. It doesn't actually make sense, because she's always five minutes older than me no matter what the age numbers are, but... you know what I mean. (Her name isn't actually Kate, in case anybody was wondering.) I'm also a bit bummed out that my older sister, who doesn't have a 6LCF code name, won't be here for our birthday. I hardly get to see her all summer, really. This week, I was gone; next week, she'll be gone; the week after that, I'll be gone... you get the picture. 

I had a bagel when I got back from Reading Camp today, and it was awesome. Camp had really good food, but there were no bagels for some strange reason. Like, there were extremely legit hot breakfasts every morning with eggs and bacon and the whole "nine yards" (where does that expression come from? American football?) but no bagels. I loooovvvveeee bagels.  

Speaking of Reading Camp, it was awesome. I think it's probably the most responsibility I've ever had in my life so far, and it was a lot of work, but it was totally worth it and we had so much fun. The kids improved so much, and they were all so sweet. There was a ton of junk food out during the counselor breaks (AKA while the kids were with the teachers & after they went to bed) and I think that I gained a ton of weight, but I have a week to work it off. I'm excited for next year. (For the Curly Fries who are friends with me in Real Life on Facebook, there are seven hundred pictures up that you can creep on if you wish. That wasn't an exaggeration. There might actually be more than seven hundred...) 

I feel like I've been talking about myself a lot in this post. Hmmm. 

So.... yeah. A lot to look forward to in the coming weeks. 'Tis all very exciting. 

Questions for the Comments:

1) Do you know when the new Alex Day album will be available on iTunes?  (I was just wondering)

2) What do you like and/or dislike about birthdays?

3) How's your summer been so far?

4) What's your favourite word?

5) What was your favourite book when you were a kid learning how to read?

DFTBA,

PDBAZ,

Peace, Love, & Otters,

Virgil

Momo Go Bye-Bye :(

The title says it all. This is Momo, reporting in for her very last post for the next month. I don't know how any of you will be able to survive a whole month without my splendocity?<--That's a word, okay?! As I am sure many of you have figured out by now, I'm going to camp! I am super excited for this, but sad that I will miss all of y'all. I may write my posts and have my sister be the honorary scribe, but I don't know if I would have time to do that. Also, when I'm at camp, I lose track of the time and forget what day it is...which may be a problem. Besides that, the mail service at camp sucks, it takes a week to send mail from there home. Someone else could fill in for me if they wish. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm not writing this on Monday. It's actually Thursday, but I must type now. Remember in my last post when I said I was going to camp on Monday? IT LIES! Camp does start on Monday, but I leave on Sunday. "But Momo," you may ask, "I thought you just said you weren't going on Monday? I'm so confused!"

My response to this would naturally be, "Well, little child. Momo has to go on Sunday so she can take a bus to camp on Monday. Meanwhile, on Sunday night, she must stay in an icky college dorm, with a complete stranger, in the blazing heat normally associated with Minnesota." You would nod your head up and down like a good little girl, and start sobbing because you don't want your beloved Momo to have to suffer in an icky college dorm, with a complete stranger, in the blazing heat normally associated with Minnesota. That is why I can't post on Monday and must type this now. "B-but Momo," you may ask, "Why are you typing on Thursday and not Saturday?"

And I would respond, "SHUT UP! The reason is is that on Friday I am going out of town (Pennsylvania...blah) for the day with our exchange student. He was here for a year and is leaving while I'm at camp."

I think that about covers it...I really hope someone figures out that they should post this for me on Monday...

~~~~~~~~~~~~

I hate being white in summer. Do you know why? Sunburn. Oh, it is so painful (Lynda, don't mock me in the comments about how you never get burnt!) and red, and then it peels and gives you skin cancer. I was at Cedar Point again yesterday...er...Wednesday, which was AMAZING! I went on a total of 18 rides (including repeats) and I got to go on Top Thrill Dragster again!

In the morning, we got to the park before opening time, so we had to wait for it to open. Then, we (my dad, exchange student, another exchange student, and I) ran to the Dragster...even though police officers kept telling us to walk. We got there and there was already a a gigunduous line. We waited for an hour, and it still hadn't run with people on it. There was some mechanical error so my dad and I went on some other rides. It eventually opened up, but the line was about 2 hours long. After lunch, it was closed down again. About half of the people in the 1 hour line left. We didn't get in line, but we were about to, so we started walking away. Then, as we walked away from the ride, there was a giant whoosh. The ride was all better and we hopped in line. We only waited for half an hour (which is a really short wait for the best ride in the world) and then went off to do water rides.

Back to the sunburn. I put on 70 SPF sunscreen in the morning before we started riding. I reapplied it in the afternoon and as we went along. The only place I forgot to put it on was my neck and my scalp. I'm still not used to short hair (I donated my hair around Easter) and usually don't have to put sunscreen on my neck. I got really burnt though. Then, I somehow got sun burn on the top of my head! How does that work? Now I can't brush my hair without a searing pain in my head. *sigh*.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

I believe that's all I have to write for now. I bet I'll add stuff later. Bye!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What is your regular bedtime on school nights? On days off/summer?

2. Are you excited that Eclipse the movie comes out on Virgil's birthday? [I'm not]

3. Do you get sunburnt?

4. What is your favorite number?

5. When you go places, do you pack a lot, or a little?

I'll miss y'all! See you in a month!
-Momo ☼
(This was posted by xiy, by the way. Momo's gone to camp by now. But she'll be back in a month, so it's all good.)

Rubik's Cubes & Related Topics

Arr, hello there mateys! Step aboard the Good Ship Virgil! All ashore who's goin' ashore!

*cue theme music* La la la la, la la la la, Virgil's World! La la la la, la la la la, Virgil's World! Virgil loves Tom Felton and pirates too! That's Virgil's whhhirrled! *end theme music*

(In case you haven't noticed, I'm a pirate today. I'll explain that later. Arrr.)

*

Philosophical Statement of the Day:

It recently occurred to me that life is like a Rubik's Cube. I'm not entirely sure how/why, but I intend to find out.

*

Now, onto more important business. I just discovered (and by "just" I literally mean, like, two seconds ago) that the name "Virgil" anagrams to "Girl VI" which is so jokes because I'm the sixth girl to post on this blog every week. Of course, it also anagrams to "Girl IV" but that's not nearly as jokes, because I'm not the fourth one to post. 

As you probably know, today is Saturday, June 19th, 2010. That means that yesterday was Friday, June 18th, 2010. Do you know what that means? THE WIZARDING WORLD OF HARRY POTTER OFFICIALLY OPENED YESTERDAY!! (House failed to mention this in her post.) AND I GET TO GO THERE IN LESS THAN A MONTH. ARRRR LUDI ARRRR (The "AHHH LUDI AHHH" is changed today because I am a pirate. Arrr.)(Even though ninjas are still way more awesome.) I watched the grand opening on Mugglenet, and a ton of the stars from the movies were there, including Tom Felton (he plays Draco Malfoy, for those of you who don't know) whom I plan on marrying someday. I haven't told him yet, though. Us folks on the Dark Side may have lied about the cookies, but we have him, so it's all good.

Speaking of the Dark Side, the other day I saw a flair on facebook that said something like, "Come to the darkside - we have Snape. Oh wait, no we don't. Oh wait, yes we do. No, we don't. Yes, we do. Oh, just... never mind." It made me smile. =D

I'm listening to some songs from that band House mentioned called A Rocket to the Moon. They're quite good.
(Oh dear, I must work on this whole segway-into-another-topic thing. You see, in writing, you can just start another chapter. Maybe I should start dividing posts into chapters so that it will be easier to randomly switch topics. I'll just slide in a little asterisk and hope nobody notices.)
*
I leave for Reading Camp tomorrow!! I'm very excited, because I get to learn how to read... haha no. Actually, I'm a junior counselor - the campers are younger kids who live in the inner city, and they are at least a year behind where they should be in terms of reading level, if not more. The camp is PIRATE THEMED, and we had a counselor meeting today, so we were all getting into the pirate spirit. Arr. So yeah, it should be fun. I'll have no access to a computer all week (it's an overnight camp), so don't be offended if I don't comment on anybody's posts. It's not because I don't like you. I should be able to fulfill my Curly Fry duties next Saturday, though.
*
I was creeping on Momo's YouTube channel last night and I saw a little birthday message to me. (Was I supposed to not watch it? Er...) Momo, you're a sweetie. And I liked your diva disguise.

*Question Time!!*
1) Translate: Arrr arr yo-ho arr swashbuckling arrr mateys... ahoy!
2) What does your name anagram to?
3) Have you ever read Looking for Alaska?
4) Do you think it would be cool for us to have a 6LCF book club - like, we could all read the same book and then like... discuss it? It could be open to other people who read the blog too (are ya there?).
5) All in favour say "aye" all opposed say "nay."
6) I nominate Looking for Alaska for our first book! All in favour say "aye," all opposed say "nay."
7) Is there a different book you would like to nominate?

DFTBA,
PDBAZ,
Peace, Love, & Otters,

Virgil

P.S. Even though some of us won't be here, I think we should still do a collab post for Father's Day, k?

Last Monday of School!!!

HUZZAH!!!! Today is the very, very, very, very last Monday before summer vacation! Do you know how exciting that is? Do you? Do you? The last week of school is a joke. We watch movies, [actually we take a final (but that is a joke too)] do cross word puzzles, sign billions of year books, play more Kemp's (<--sp?) than normal...and of course, go to the esteemed School Dance (yes, it must be capitalized...okay?). I personally do not participate in such childish things as school socials and dances. They are dumb. I went to one...and I wanted to cut myself (not really). People get so excited; they all do their hair, buy expensive dresses, and arrive in limos. And we're only talking Junior prom. *scoffs* Kids these days. Another tradition with our school is Whirly Ball* and Laser Tag day. Today, xiy, House, and I all went to play these games...It was a'ight. Laser tag is really fun and my shorts were glowing in the cool black lights**.  Then we returned to school and watched more movies.

I cannot wait for summer!! Aayaaauaaiaaeaaaoaah!

Also, today we had a super Science Olympiad partay at Virgil's house (ahaha, Virgil's House...get it?). Science Olympiad is the nerdiest sport ever. We compete in science events...and normally win. However, our state has, like, the three best teams in the country, which makes winning a tad bit harder. The party was fun though; we went swimming, (not in the moonlight) and ate "nomz", and jumped on the trampoline, and played capture the flag. That went swimmingly (punny) all in all. 

Latin picnic tomorrow! It will be fun. Pique nique!

Dude!!!! I am going to camp in exactly 2 weeks (WHAT? I'm leaving on a Monday...crap). I'll be gone for a month with no internet access except for 20 minutes at the half way point...or at least I think. Maybe I 'll be able to do a quick post then. Someone may fill in for me, and I may hand write posts and send them to someone to type, but that would require effort. I don't know what to do!!!! And Virgil's birthday is right after I leave and I'll have to miss it! :( *sigh*. I don't really have anything else to yammer about, so on to the questions.

1. Dormivistisne?

2. When was the last time you lost the game?

3. Oh, I'm sorry, did you not want to lose the game?

4. What is the game? (please explain this to our readers who do not know of it, I obviously know how to play it)

5. What is the color of your aura?

6. Are you my mother?

7. What are you doing this summer?

From your dearest Momo

* Whirly ball is a game in which 10 people (five people on each team) get in bumper cars and go "zoom, zoom". Each player is equipped with a mini lacrosse-stick-like object. A wiffle ball is used as the ball. One must chuck said ball at the board thing. Hitting the back board is two points, hitting the center is four. That's all.

**Why are black lights called black lights it they're purple? <--You are permitted to answer that if you so choose.
