Iced Brownies, Continental Brownies, Turtle Brownies, Brownies in a Jar, Scrumptious Frosted Fudgy Brownies, Scrumptious Frosted Fudgy Brownies, and... WHOA THERE LADY!

HELLO!


I'm currently looking up different types of brownie recipes so that I may make DESSERT for our FABULOUS up-coming Asians-Only HOLIDAY PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


hehehehe...*cough* erm, I may be running on an over-excited WINTER BREAK adrenaline rush! WOOHOO!


Anyways, I had no idea there were so many different types of BROWNIES! I LOVE BROWNIES. Just in case you didn't know. I LOVE BROWNIES! Although, I almost never eat them because of this little (er, BIG) pudgy area in the tummy area. No matter how much I work out during crew, I somehow manage to retain this ridiculous amount of blubber on my stomach. In fact, every other week or so, I have this conversation with my stomach/non-existent abs:


Lynda: HELLO? ABS? YOU THERE?
imaginary Abs: wha? wassup?
Lynda: WHY ARE YOU STILL IN HIBERNATION?!
imaginary Abs: pshaw, I was in hibernation, 'til you woke me up, gurl!
Lynda: Huh? I STILL DON'T SEE YOU!
imaginary Abs: probs cuz you ain't workin' out 'nuff, gurl!
Lynda: WHAT? WHY YOU LITTLE--
imaginary Abs: chill, gurl, imma come outta hibernation in *yawn* a coupla years, doncha worry yo purty lil head 'bout it...
Lynda: *giggle* hehe, you think I'm pretty? Why thank--
imaginary Abs: *snore*
Lynda: ...grrrrr...couple of years..>.<


And that is how my conversations go. Is it weird that my Abs are male? hmm, idk, maybe guys' abs are females...lol


So, I was screening the music in this new playlist I made for an erg mix (cd of music to be played while we work out during crew practice), and I realized that lots of my songs are NOT G-Rated as I had originally thought. In fact, some (lots) of my music has lyrics that could make my crew coaches blush :)


Anyhoo...I was watching a music video of this one song (Tonight by Enrique Iglesias <--who is a hottie btw!), and it was very GRAPHIC! HAHAHAHA! So I was typing the title to the post, when I got to this one part, where this one lady like, POUNCES! on the poor (hawt) guy! HA! LIKE A PUMA! POUNCE LIKE A PUMA! And I was like, "WHOA THERE, LADY! TAKE IT EASY!" And then there was more panting and the likes, and I was like, "SHIELD YOUR EYES, CHILDREN! SHIELD THEM! OR YOU WILL BE scarred!!!!"...lol


lol, I was watching another music video, lol, and it was KE$HA's Blow...and it was...hum, interesting [<--my word of the...month? idk...ask xiy about my word of the moment/month/year...I went through this phase in which I said everything was "weird"...and now apparently little voice #24 (aka Manners) and voice #34 (Vocabulary) have teamed up to find a word that's not as mean, and more polite, but voice #17 (Sarcasm) and #25 (Snark) have teamed up to influence 24 and 34 to find a word that I can inflect my tone in such a way that makes it sound...judgemental :D HURRAH FOR VOICES AND COOPERATION!!!] There were  unicorns in suits, and they were weird. Then Ke$ha goes and does these...innuendo things, and suddenly, there's shooting, and the unicorns shoot out rainbow lights from their bullet wounds??? INTERESTING!


So, thassall!


Luv,
Lynda


P.S. I just read over what I wrote, and I realize it looks like I'm on a sugar high or something...hum...I guess I sort of am. WINTER BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!! lol...Lynda be crazy today ;)

What a treacherous thing to believe that a person is more than a person.

I thought I'd begin today's post with an epic Paper Towns quote. 

This post is going well already. 

Okay, what shall I talk about? *listens to The Cell Respiration Song for inspiration* 

Let's talk about song lyrics. This is a good song: 


I found myself standing on a rock
It was pretty big I couldn’t see around it
Just went on and on until it didn’t stop.
It was green and it was brown
It was blue and it was white
And it spun around so fast that the day turned into night.
I tried running forward so I could see over the edge
But soon I found myself sleeping in somebody else’s bed
And they said...




The opening lines of this song are some of my favorite lyrics ever. "I found myself standing on a rock..." it's such an awesome visual, like, standing a rock that's green, brown, blue, and white, and it spins so fast that day turns to night. Like, whoa.
 
Don’t look for light bulbs when you’re standing in the sunshine
And don’t think you’ll get tomorrow in your sights
No matter how many times you run it through your head

Because you’ll never get it right...

Just the words, "Don't look for light bulbs when you're standing in the sunshine." So beautiful. Ohmygosh. 





Umm NaNoWriMo is really soon. Whoa. ohgoshwhatamigoingtodo?!?!?!?





In other news, I found this website and I think I know what's going on my list for Santa this Christmas. 

Look at the icon I made! 

yay!!

 
 That is all. 


Byee!!
Virgil
  

Here a Lee, There a Lee, Everywhere a Lee a Lee!

Hurrah for History movies/musicals/videos!


I'm too lazy to post too much, so here's a lovely video to see! It's funny, and EDUCATIONAL! Oh, and the title if from the musical "1776", a lovely song...so now whenever I hear "Lee/Li", I'll think "Here a Lee, There a Lee, Everywhere a Lee a Lee...It's the F F V, the First Family...A resolution, for independency!" Such a catchy song... :)

Isn't the rat ADORABLE??? *cooes*
Another one of the Horrible Histories ^ is, erm, most of them, they're all really funny...like, Battle of Thermopylae- "USE YOUR SPEAR, IF YOUR SPEAR BREAKS, USE YOUR SWORD, IF YOUR SWORD BREAKS, USE YOUR...TEETH!"
Luv, Lynda

hoodies and cold piccolos

Hi hi.

My fingers are cold as I type this. Yes, fellow curly fries and members of the curly fry army, colder weather has set in for the past little while. I kind of like the colder weather, since hoodies are like one of my favorite things ever. But with the cold come sadface things, like out of tune piccolos covered in frost and audition+try-out season.

Buuuuut try-outs and auditions are nearly over :]

Momo and I made it into the band we auditioned for!! Gah, exciting. And Virgil (who was in the group last year 'cause she's so swag) made third chair, which is practically second chair, since there are two co-first chairs. Yayyy!

Coming up this week are auditions for the second band, which Carrie's auditioning for. We send her the best of luck :) {She's gonna be brilliant, no worries there.}

Our lovely three hundred and something person marching band is continuing to improve at a very lovely pace, as is the JV soccer team. The flute squad slants look straight and wonderful, and more and more teammates are learning the wonderful benefits of ~~*passing*~~ the ball.

*sigh* my life has deteriorated to school (daytime), soccer (after school), and music (the weekends).

Hope you're all well. (And that xiy's mouth doesn't hurt too much! :( )

With all due respect,
House.

I have a lot to do, very little time to do it, and nearly no motivation... so I shall write a post instead.

La la la la, la la la la, Virgil's world! La la la la, la la la la, Virgil's world! Virgil loves her music, and finals too! That's Virgil's worrrllldd!!!

Ah, yes, it's that time of year again. *sigh* I have no comment regarding finals, other than the fact that they are very final-y and cause unneeded stress every June. 


Today, I'm going to talk about MUSIC!! We re-started marching band on Friday (for the Memorial Day Parade next weekend) which is just dandy.

I recently made a new playlist on my iPod and called in My Most Favorite Songs. I shall share it with you now, because I don't have anything else to talk about and I really need to finish my math homework. 


(They're in order, with #1 being my most favorite and #21 being my twenty-first favorite)


1. Hedwig's Theme (the longer version from the first movie) - John Williams [There is nothing that can be said about Hedwig's Theme.... it completes my life.]
2. Jurassic Park - John Williams [it is not a well-known fact that I have an obsession with the music from Jurassic Park. It's just so epically amazing!!]
3. Harry's Wondrous World - John Williams
4. Jupiter (from "The Planets") - Gustav Holst [my favorite song that isn't written by JW!]
5. One Last Drink - Enter the Haggis [Look it up. Best party song ever... about a funeral.]
6. Do You Believe in Magic? - The Lovin' Spoonful [this is the version from the Parent Trap soundtrack]
7. Overture - Disney's The Little Mermaid (the Broadway production) - Original Cast [The pit orchestra for this recording is actually, like, the best one I've ever heard. That first trumpet part is like no other!]
8. You're Not There - Eddplant [This song is such a winner. House likes it too.]
9. Poet and Peasant Overture - Franz von Suppe [Nice name.]nice name]<="" span="">
10. Paperback Writer - The Beatles [Story of my life.]
11. I'll Make a Man Out of You - Donny Osmond & Chorus [Is there need for explanation? No.]
12. The World is Mine (I Don't Know Anything) - Alex Day [Ah...sheer wonderfulness <3]
13. Flying - James Newton Howard (This is that cool song from the new-er Peter Pan]
14. Granger Danger - Lauren Lopez & Joey Richter [I get really excited whenever this comes on.]
15. Prologue - John Williams [Epicness overload!]
16. Holding On - Alex Day ["I could bake a chocolate cake for you with tiers up to the moon..."]
17. Go the Distance - Roger Bart [We're translating "Hercules" in Latin class right now. hahahaha]
18. The First Star - Eddplant [Because he's my one-and-only true love <3]
19. Concertino - Cecile Chaminade - [I have to play this for an audition tomorrow... but I love it! Crap I need to practice...]
20. Neverland (Piano Variation in Blue) - Jan A.P. Kaczmarek [From "Finding Neverland." It's so pretty!]
21. Sweet Child O' Mine - Project Trio [This is an instrumental version on flute, cello, and bass. It's pretty beast. Look up Project Trio if you don't know who I'm talking about.]


I'm currently writing a five-movement suite for flute, and it's about Looking for Alaska. Maybe I'll put it on YouTube when it's done. 


Best wishes!
Virgil

:)

Hi hi.

So, this week should be actually quite nice.
I'm in a lovely mood in comparison to last week, so I'll be going into finals somewhat hopeful.
School is winding down! Thank goodness. (Finals are going to be... um... stressful. However, we're starting to prepare for this bout a little bit earlier than before, so maybe it'll be more calm?)
The sun is beginning to shine again; the classes are getting progressively less productive; those freakin birds are starting to chirp earlier and earlier, forcing me to lose sleep. And yay it's almost summer :D I can't wait :)

xiy and I finished our 9HD today! I'm really excited for this Tuesday night. xiy and I get to lose miserably to Momo and Carrie's display board, yayyy. Our board is actually really good in comparison to our other one. (Granted, the other board had more character and was more neon and overall more beautiful. But judges like /organized/ and /neat/ and /formal/, meh.)

Momo and Virgil have turned me (and xiy) into QWOP fanatics... it's this simple running game-thing that gets to be really addicting XD

Anyway.
I should go practice moar flute. Auditions are this Wednesday for that band Virgil and I are in.
Kbai!
AHHH AUDITIONS AHHHHH >.< >.< >.<
With all due respect,
House.

I am a nerd, but I need to practice!

I plan to write an alternate ending
For the play Romeo and Juliet,
So I must practice writing in meter.

I am not good at writing in meters,
I can hardly make a decent haiku.
But forsooth! This post will hence be written
In iambic pentameter, like so.
(Omitting those certain stressed syllables 
Of course, because they are such a hassle,
And Shakespeare doesn't always adhere thus.)


I think that this meter is so oft' used
Because humans have ten fingers, not nine
Or eight or fourteen or seventy-two - 
Ten have we, and so we count in base ten
And write in iambic pentameter.

The music of the moment is pleasant,
Or rather, that is, peasant not pleasant;
It is Poet and Peasant Overture!
Which we hath sight-read in Wind Ensemble,
Much to my utter excitement inside
(Though not expressed outwardly at the time,
For fear I would be singled out by he,
Who is the most fearsome band director
In the kingdom, or at least in the state.)
 I love Poet and Peasant Overture;
It features in a cartoon of my youth
Which is called Hep Cat Symphony, behold: 

What a wonder that this film which I loved
Contained so much great classical music,
Which I have later grown to greatly love!

And now, moving onto relevant things
(Perhaps sealing wax, cabbages, and kings?)
No, I chide, I was merely making rhyme
(Yet Wonderland is always relevant!) 
Banqueto is tomorrow, I can't wait! 
We are slaves to the elders, oh such joy!
It will be fun, in spite of our bondage
For I am sure that the feast will be grand!


This gets easy as I keep going on,
Although I still must count on my fingers,
It is somehow becoming rather fun.
And though I wish to revert to normal,
I seem to be unable to stop this
Madness, forever I shall always write 
Alas, in iambic pentameter. 


I believe I am done here. This was fun!
DFTBA, with love from Virgil. 

Lofty Mountains and Flowing Waters

Now that's a great song name. 

Um... I don't really have a plan for today's post. I'll draw you a picture. 

This picture is a hint. Muahahaha

I saw Les Mis yesterday. It was truly amazing. I can't even describe the feeling. 

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!

It gave me chills. The entire cast just sang SO AMAZINGLY. LIKE WHOA. 
It occurred to me while watching that Jean Valjean is a lot like Sirius Black. I think I'll write a musical parody and call it Les Wiz. Har har har.Geddit?

My current song-obsession (besides Les Mis and "Lofty Mountains and Flowing Waters") is an Enter the Haggis song called "One Last Drink." It's morbid and happy at the same time.

This is the chorus:

I've had a life that's full
Everyone's been good to me
So fire up that fiddle, boy
And give me one last drink
When the sun comes up
I will leave without a fight
The world is mine tonight

It's about a old guy on his deathbed who decides to go out to a pub so he can drink and have a good time.The first verse starts with "Old John on his deathbed cried, 'I think I will wait 'til tomorrow to die...'"
Quit uplifting, and very Celtic. XD

The Red Sox beat the Yankees on Opening Day at Fenway, which is very exciting because they lost their first six away games, and we were starting to get worried. It's okay, though. They're just starting to gain momentum, that's all.
GO BOSTON 
SO. Our birthday is coming up... I'm working on a present for you guys. 


I shall leave you with a quote from one of my favorite musicals:


Conceited?
Not me!
It's just that I am what I am,
And I'm me!


Love,
Virgil

iz sleepin times soon

Okay, first of all. My favourite Girl Scout cookie everrr are the All Abouts (Thanks-A-Lot). Ohmygoshhhh. They're great. Fudge and shortbread cookie... yummmyyyy. (Sadly, they're retired now. *tear*) Also, they came in the best-looking box, the pink one :D


A'ight, hi. So, I'm back from my spring vacay. Get to sleep and do History homework this last weekend, yay...
Anyway, so here are the things I've been thinking about this week. Enjoy?


1. TSA Screening
By golly, that was fun. I got to go through the xray thingy. For an entire seven seconds, "CANCER RADIATION DEAD CANCER bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz" was going through my head. I haven't really bothered starting legit soccer conditioning yet, so goodness knows my body isn't quite at its glorious peak of sculpted-ness. Whatev.
Totally worth it, though! I feel so much safer now. [lol.]

allllllllllll day...

2. A Rocket to the Moon
Idk if you listen to that band (I know Carrie and Virgil at least know kinda), but they have this album, right. It's called "On Your Side," and the album cover art looks like this:

they be needin' capitalisation helps

lulz I found an elephant in the picture:

*trumpeting noises*

Gosh, I do love having free time to indulge in such rewarding things ^.^


3. Applying Skillz to Real Life
In eighth grade, our Science teacher gave us this assignment on genetic diseases (since we were studying genetics and all). I kinda freaked out when he gave me mine because I couldn't figure out how to pronounce it for my life.* Acute cerebellar ataxia. And zomg guess what (Dr.) House's patient this week finally presented with? I feel so accomplished, actually using something I learned in school. {Though I guess it was only kind of in school, since the majority of the paper was researched on our own.}
Woohoo. Now maybe I'll like stumble into some way of using matrices in the grocery store. Or something.

oh, how they make me cry.

Anyways.
Time for me to go sleep or something. Probs sleep ^.^


With all due respect,
House.




*House can't spell or pronounce thingies. And by "thingies," I mean words and stuff.

Edit from Virgil:
this was the 300th post. woohoo!!!! :) 

Cavities, Table Manners, and Reading Music

As you can tell from the title, today's post will have 3 parts. You may skip any of them, but they are all rather informative and interesting...may include rants though. I actually had 2 of the parts planned out before today. I'm so proud of myself :)

I. CAVITIES

Today, this poor little Curly Fry went to the dentist. She's always heard about people who hate dentist appointments, how much pain they go through, and how terrifying it is. This Curly Fry did not believe them. Cuz really, she had never gone through any pain at the dentist's! She gets her teeth cleaned ever 6 months like the good little girl that she is. But since her dentist's company got sold to a different one, they screwed up the whole entire schedule, and so the little Curly Fry's appointments went down the drain. A year and a half after her last teeth cleaning, she goes to get her teeth cleaned. Today. So she goes, and the dentist (or is it the dentist nurse? It's not Dr. Dentist, the real important one) asks her mommy if she's had an x-ray of her mouth in a while. The answer? No. Not in 4-5 years. But that's ok! Little Curly Fry gets an x-ray on the spot! Such good service. The dentist then says, "Open up, dearie," and so the little Curly Fry opens up her mouth. The dentist puts in a stick that has a pink plastic card thing on it to block the rest of the mouth from getting x-rayed. "Now, bite down," and the little Curly Fry bites down. She feels discomfort as the plastic thing is too big, and cuts into her mouth. That's ok, since she only needs to suffer through 4 more times. By the end of it, the little Curly Fry's mouth hurts a bit. But that's fine, since it's an x-ray precaution! Then the dentist tells her to lie down, and to "open up". Little Curly Fry does so, and the dentist proceeds to prod and poke around inside her mouth. After a little while, the dentist asks the little Curly Fry, "do you know what cavities are?" and the little Curly Fry says, "yes." The dentist then says, "what are they?" Of course, the little Curly Fry's brain chooses that moment to go blank and forget every single thing she has ever learned, and cannot answer. The dentist explains that cavities are holes in your teeth that is caused by your teeth decaying. Then she brings over a mirror, and tells the little Curly Fry to look into it, and then proceeds to start scraping off white stuff from the little Curly Fry's teeth. What is it? IT'S PLAQUE! PLAQUE! PLAQUE!!! *sob* The poor little Curly Fry has plaque all over her teeth, and to make it worse, the dentist is purposely humiliating the little Curly Fry by telling her to brush her teeth (as if she didn't) and to floss (well...) every day! She also says to brush your teeth for 2 minutes straight. Which is good advice. The little Curly Fry takes it to heart, and vows to start using a timer to time herself when brushing, oh, and to floss everyday (which, I am sure, every Curly Fry does). The dentist then shows that the little Curly Fry's gums are bleeding. This is a sign of infection. Too much plaque causes infection. This just reinforces the little Curly Fry's internal vows. After showing the little Curly Fry, the dentist begins to clean. Sorry, did the narrator just say "clean"? She meant torture. The poor little Curly Fry had to endure 45 minutes of absolute pain. The pointy, metal tools that the dentist used were used viciously to attack all the dirty parts of the little Curly Fry's teeth, painfully. Unlike before, the cleaning hurt terribly. By the end of it, she was hesitant to close her mouth, as that caused huge amounts of pain. The little Curly Fry prepared herself for the next part, and realized it was brushing. She felt so relieved! She enjoyed the feeling of the whirring toothbrushes that dentists always used. She especially liked the orange flavored toothpaste. But *gasp*! The dentist did not ask her which type of flavor she wanted! She just went ahead and used mint! MINT! The little Curly Fry was devastated, and soon also realized that the whirring of the toothbrush on her poor tortured gums was a horrid feeling of agony! At last, the visit to the dentist was drawing to a close, and she was so relieved, she could cry. That's when Dr. Dentist came in. The really important dentist that checks up on every patient at the end. She told the little Curly Fry, after fiddling around with the pointy, metal tools that the little Curly Fry had 2 cavities, and would need to fix it. The little Curly Fry felt like bursting into tears, she had not gotten cavities in 7 years! And this is the end of the poor little Curly Fry who went to the dentist, and found that it was not as pleasant as she remembered. The moral of the story? Brush your teeth for 2-3 times a day, 2 minutes each. Floss everyday. Otherwise, cavities and gum diseases shall appear in your life...

II. TABLE MANNERS

Ah, yes. A sub-topic of a thing called "etiquette". Something that this Curly Fry tends to ignore, unless she has company (grown-up/new people company). Something that House Curly Fry can go on for ages about. House is probably smiling in approval at this Curly Fry because of this part. There are several rules that one should follow when eating at a table (or in a car, on a tablecloth/picnic, etc.) for the good of everyone there. Here are the ones that I have compiled. Please note they are not in any specific order. They are listed as I think of them.

Rule Number 1. Eat with your mouth closed. It's quite disturbing (read: disgusting) when someone has their mouth wide open, and you can clearly see the mushed up contents of their meal. Besides, there is a greater possibility of your food falling out.

Rule Number 2. Don't talk with your mouth full. Something every parent has told their child(ren). It is in close relationship with #1, because again, it's strange (read: sickening) when someone is talking to you, and you can see their food, or what the food is becoming, or even the food tumbling out of their mouth and onto the ground, their lap, or even your lap.

Rule Number 3. Wipe your mouth on a napkin. NOT YOUR SLEEVE. I know there is the stereotype that Amuricans just swipe their arm across their mouth and then call it a day, but that's quite crude (read: gross). It won't kill you to reach over for a napkin, and wipe your mouth.

Rule Number 4. Wash your hands before you eat. It is not sanitary to eat with the hands (actually, you shouldn't eat with your hands, though that's next) that you just touched dirt with. Or perhaps you've been at school the whole day, and you've touched your desk, the doors, the walls, your locker, your pencil, the whiteboard, the computer, etc. Please remember that many other people have touched the things you've touched. If you were to eat the germs that are on those things, think of how atrocious that would be! For example, say someone had just scratched the inside of their nose, and some mucus had come detached, and the person had to wipe it somewhere. Somewhere like their desk. Say you sat at that desk, and your hand grazed the spot. Later on, you would be eating parts of the mucus from that person's nose.

Rule Number 5. Eat most foods with your utensils. There is a reason they were made. Do not eat rice, noodles, or soups with your hands. They are not meant to be eaten like that. Rice is meant to be eaten with chopsticks. If you do not have chopsticks, or you cannot use chopsticks (properly), eat it with a spoon, fork, or even a spork. Noodles are meant to be eaten with forks and maybe spoons. Use spoons to eat soups. Of course, there are exceptions, like curly fries. They are made for the person to use their hands to eat. Other exceptions include emergency situations, in which there are no utensils. If you are going to eat with hands, please read and follow Rule Number 4.

Rule Number 6. Use utensils the way they were made to be used. Do not hold a fork like a club. Do not hold the knife with the cutting part in your palm. You will hurt yourself, and you will feel pain. Do not use your spoon to flick peas or small food particles into flight. Do not hold chopsticks with two hands. Do not hold it in your fist. Do not insert chopsticks into your (or anyone's) nostril holes. Use one hand, and hold it like a pencil. Please ask someone who knows how to use chopsticks to help you or look at the diagram on the right.

Rule Number 7. Slurping, burping, squealing, singing, humming are all sounds that are not to be made at the table. Except for the cultures that do allow these (which does not include the USA), this one is self explanatory.

Rule Number 8. Talking is permitted, but certain topics are to be avoided at all costs. These topics include, but are not limited to: bowel movements, reproductive actions, non-reproductive actions that are closely related to said actions, diseases, and vomiting. Politics and religion are commonly in that list, but I think that people can deal with talking about these, as long as they aren't rude or obnoxious about it. Tolerance is good.

Rule Number 9. You do not need to shout at the table. Unless the table is extremely large (in which case, you should just wait until after the meal to talk to the person), people can hear you. They are not deaf. In the case that they are, shouting is useless. If the person is close to being deaf, speak next to their ear, at a low pitch, this helps their ears or hearing aids to pick up on what you are saying. This rule also helps the people at other tables who do not wish to know what you think of Justin Bieber, regardless of how important you may think your opinion is.

Rule Number 10. Please and thank you! House has gone over this, the rule applies to table manners also.

Rule Number 11. NEVER INSULT THE FOOD. If you don't like it after you've sampled (YOU MUST ALWAYS TRY IT), then don't eat it, but DO NOT say it was "disgusting", or go, "ewww". It is incredibly rude, and if you do, Lynda Curly Fry will hunt you down and stuff you with that food until you like it. Or learn to say you like it. GOT IT? (You can tell I despise people who do that)

Rule Number 12. Thank the chef, if you can. They did not need to go through with the effort. Unless you're at a restaurant, in which case, thanking the chef is still the polite thing to do.

A Meme from Me!

Hey there.

As I have nothing interesting to write about, I'm just going to do what Virgil did on Saturday. Apparently it's called a meme...

From Urban Dictionary: Meme- noun. (4th definition) in blogspeak, an idea that is spread from blog to blog

From The Daily Meme: In the context of web logs / ‘blogs / blogging and other kinds of personal web sites it’s some kind of list of questions that you saw somewhere else and you decided to answer the questions. Then someone else sees them and does them and so on and so on. I generally consider these to be actual questions and not some multiple choice quizzes that determine some result at the end (what color you are most like, what cartoon character are you, what 80s movie are you).

Now that we've established what a meme (this type) is, here is mine(in the same format, w/ the same format as Virgil):

IF SOMEONE SAYS "IS THIS OKAY" YOU SAY?
"Single Ladies" by Beyonce-ahm...ok

WHAT DO YOU LIKE IN A GUY/GIRL?
"Big Time Rush" by Big Time Rush-hehe...yeah, sure, I like ppl who listen to their heart, and live in the moment... 

HOW DO YOU FEEL TODAY?
"Just a Dream" by Carrie Underwood-*blink* that's kinda depressing.

WHAT IS YOUR LIFE'S PURPOSE?
"遺失的美好" by Angela Zhang-why am I getting this? I don't deserve this! (to clarify, the song is about losing something/everything good)

WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO?
"Hey, Soul Sister" by Train-erm. neh. idk, this one's weird. I guess I feel that people should have a soul sister/brother?

WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS THINK OF YOU?
"怎么办" by S.H.E.-BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!...(clarification, this is the theme song to this Chinese drama where this girl dresses as a boy to go to this all boys school, so she can stalk this other guy...the song is about not knowing what to do about her huge crush, blushing whenever he's around, her heart speeding...) So...my friends think I'm hawt? They, erm, like-like me? Gosh. Are you guys not telling me something?

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR PARENTS?
"Gotta Get Back to Hogwarts" by StarKidPotter-Ack. >.< That's not a good song for this...though, is it true? I guess...*sigh* I do want to go to Hogwarts...but...yeah....NEXT QUESTION!

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT VERY OFTEN?
"If I Ever Could Love" by Keith Urban-Oh, I love this song! Except...do I think about love a lot? wow...doesn't sound like me, the I-Think-Love-is-completely-rubbish-for-me-but-hey-I'm-fine-with-y'all-being-lovey-dovey-just-don't-get-it-on-me!

WHAT IS 2+2?
"525600 Minutes" by RENT-hahahaha...sure. Let's go with that. Hey! Look at that, I even remembered the units! :)

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR BEST FRIEND?
 "Everywhere" by Michelle Branch-(that song on the old CHASE commercials? "'Cause you're everywhere!") Ha. Yup. I think my friends are everywhere. I love you guys for that! <3

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE PERSON YOU LIKE?
"Because You Live" by Jesse Mccartney+"Lukas Podolski"-So, this one, my iPod played two seconds of the latter, then skipped to the first one. Erm. The 2nd song is in German...I think it basically worships Podolski though...I worship the guy I like? Awww...the 1st song is so sweet. Idk. Maybe I really like the guy, and it's for him that I live, I live to worship him?

WHAT IS YOUR LIFE STORY?
"Hot n' Cold" by Katy Perry-HA! I'm a PMSing bitch who's bi-polar! HAHA! It's rather close, too!

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
"Hero" by Sterling Knight-Wow. I'm gonna be a hero for the person I love? jeez. I should get my future "love" to pay me for "hero services"

WHAT DO YOU THINK WHEN YOU SEE THE PERSON YOU LIKE?
"I'm Alive" by Celine Dion-this is surprisingly consistent. I seem to "get wings to fly, I'm alive" when I see the person that I (look above) live to worship...

WHAT DO YOUR PARENTS THINK OF YOU?
"(Absolutely)Story of a Girl" by Nine Days-uhm...they think I cry too much, but they love me when I smile? I don't cry though!

WHAT WILL YOU DANCE TO AT YOUR WEDDING?
"Trouble is a Friend" by Lenka-this is sooooooo ominous...is it an omen? That I'm gonna find trouble when I'm acting as the "hero" of my love? Yeesh, creepy.

WHAT WILL THEY PLAY AT YOUR FUNERAL?
"America AO" by Aaron Carter-Yeah. Right. Play a pop/rap/rock/heavymetal-ish song at my funeral, future grandkids! I DARE YOU. Watch me come out of my grave and smack your little behinds! *fume*

WHAT IS YOUR HOBBY/INTEREST?
"Pocketful of Sunshine" by Natasha Bedingfield-HAHAHAHAHA. I like to laugh and smile and be happy, and dance with butterflies!

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR FRIENDS?
"青花瓷" by Jay Chou-Ahhhh...if I don't really know what the heck this song is about...I don't even know what the title really means! Well, it's pretty. So, um, I think you guys are all pretty.

WHAT'S THE WORST THING THAT COULD HAPPEN?
"If I Were a Boy" by Beyonce-MWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!! YES! THAT'S THE WORST THING THAT COULD HAPPEN!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

HOW WILL YOU DIE?
"Kiss a Girl" by Keith Urban-Erm...I'm gonna die cuz I kissed a girl? STDs? Herpes? Poison? Disgust? Stab in the back? 

So, that was my very amusing meme about me! It was fun. I liked the 2nd last one. It fit soooooo well. Haha. *wipes tears from laughter* So...gotta go to sleep now! (Or do my Greek hw...) G'night!

Luv, Lynda

P.S. I know what I'm gonna write about next week, if nothing big happens. Remember that question about "what my friends think of me"? The song to that was for a Chinese Drama. I think I'll write my condensed version...Should be fun. I liked that drama...slightly weird and totally improbable, and mildly creepy, but whatever. 

It's 1/1/11 and Virgil hates birds.

Sometimes, especially at times when I'm being woken up at the ungodly hour of 10 a.m. on New Year's Day by the obnoxious squawking of birds, I like to imagine what the birds might be saying to one another.
This is how I picture it:
Bird Number 1 (posh British accent): Why hello there, Bird Number 2. How are you on this fine New Year's morning?
Bird Number 2 (rural Kentucky accent): HI BIRD NUMBER 1 IT'S NEW YEAR'S MORNING AND GUESS WHAT? I'M A BIRD!!!! 
Bird Number 1: Well, young fellow, there's no need to shout.
Bird Number 2: I'M A BIRD!! ISN'T IT GREAT? WE'RE ALL BIRDS!!! YAYY!!!
Bird Number 1: Tut, tut, Virgil is trying to sleep.
Bird Number 2: HAPPY NEW YEAR, VIRGIL!!! I'M A BIRD!!!
Bird Number 3: I'M A BIRD TOO!!!
Birds 2 & 3: YAY WE'RE BIRDS AND IT'S NEW YEAR'S MORNING YAYYY
 
Oh, joy.


So today, we're going to have fun with Virgil's iTunes library! Yay!

Happy December 1st! (And 1st day of Hannukah [: )

Hewwo!

Did I spell that right? Hanukkah.  Isn't it spelled with a 'C'?? Is that, like, an alternate spelling that isn't technically correct?

Oh, right, yeah. I'm not Jewish, by the way. But everyone who is is pretty excited for their 8 day holiday.

[OMG. Such a fail... I just deleted the whole sentence.] Ever heard of Ratatat? Look them up. Legitness right there. :D If there's anything I love more than techno, it's instrumental techno.

Uh, I'm hungry. And I have homework. Ew. Probably gonna cut this short then.

Bye now.

DFTBA!♥

Smiles, hugs, and lots of love,

Carrie

[whoops, forgot the font color. My bad.]

music makes me happy :D

So I looked at the clock, right? And it was all like 11:14, right? And then I was like dang, what do I write about? And then my iTunes was playing and stuff, so I'm writing about the top few songs I like.

Annie Act I Overture
What can I say? I'm a sucker for overtures. And I loveee how this particular one passes my favourite little bits of the musical from section to section while capturing the mood of the story really nicely :)

Brick by Boring Brick [Paramore]
Paramore's awesome, man. Like, they're the soundtrack for pretty much every little angsty teen's life. This particular song doesn't sound like all the others' sorta similar melodies to me, which I like :)

Reflections of Earth [part of an Epcot {like, Disney} show]
Soooo epicccc.

Kan Guo Lai [this adorable Chinese song]
When I first heard it, I thought it sounded a lot like China's version of Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours," and then I read out the translation, and it's actually about this guy who can't get any chicks. But whatever. Same diff, right?

Eyelashes [Alex Day and Tom Milsom]
Ohmygoodness, they're so cute and it's such a lovely song! :D
If you don't know Alex and/or Tom, I suggest you get your butt over to YouTube right this instant and look up both of their names. And then look up this song. And then you will understand <3

This Isn't Hogwarts [Hank Green]
This song makes nerds every happy. Because as we all know, public school ain't no place for a wizard.

Married Life [Up soundtrack]
If you've seen Up, this totally makes you relive that bittersweet opening scene alllll over again. And I dunno about you, but Up is definitely on my list of the best movies ever made ever. Ever.

(I do  like normal music, too, tough. Katy and Taylor {Swift} are constantly playing. But these have been my favourites for a while, and pop fades in and out. And we all know the Harry Potter soundtracks are beastly.)
Of course there are a ton others, but those are what I can come up with off the top of my head at the moment.

Feel free to discuss your own favourites below :)

With all due respect,
House

Nothing in Particular

You know that feeling? The one that you get when you have to follow up someone's amazing performance? Yeah, I'm feeling that. Thanks, Virgil. No, I'm just playing. I do feel rather down that I have to follow such an amazing post, but Virgil should be applauded, not put down! I tend to get this feeling a lot. Like when I was younger, I played violin for a few months...don't make fun of me. I had always wanted to play violin as a little kid. One day I was playing violin in my street (cars are sort of rare) before my lesson. I thought I was sooo good! Then my teacher arrived and she played some amazing Tchaikovsky piece or something and then turned and was all, "Okay. Your turn." I pulled up my bow and fixed my fingers with my other hand and then pulled up my violin. Soon enough I was screeching Mary had a Little Lamb like a pro. But not really. Not only did I suck, but I felt even worse because I'm sure my teacher was thinking, "What is wrong with this kid? Did she not learn any amazing solos to surprise me with? I need a new job."

Sigh.

That reminded me!!! If I hadn't quit violin and switched to clarinet, I would never have gone to band camp where I am fairly certain I met Virgil for the first time. I also would not have gotten closer to House who, despite her claims that she's put up with me since kindergarten, only knew me from a distance-ish type thing. If I hadn't met Virgil I wouldn't have done Science Olympiad. I wouldn't have gotten closer with the rest of you and probably would have sat alone in a corner at lunch in seventh grade. Then we wouldn't all sit together in eighth grade. If that hadn't happened, Six Little Curly Fries would not be in existence at all. You are allowed to thank me for quitting violin. XD

What else should I write about? Lynda is an old lady. I'm gonna be an old lady in *checks watch* 8 days. 

THANKSGIVING IS APPROACHIN'!!!!! TOMORROW IS THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL BEFORE OUR only 5 day break. That's pathetic. Only 5 days to give thanks? I need at least two weeks to scratch the surface of the amount of things I'm thankful for. We should do that on Thursday. Are you willing to forfeit a post, Lynda? Of course she is.

Did you ever notice that teachers get lazy around breaks. We're having, like, four "parties" a.k.a. thisisn'treallyapartypersebecausewearen'tallowedtoletyoustudentstobehappysotechnicallyit'sjustasharingofcultureandfoodthatwewillsomehowfindanamefor.

It's hard to type without spacing instinctively. I'm making pigs in a blanket for our Latin feast because apparently stuffed dormice/whole pigs is not a very popular grocery store item. Pigs in a blanket will do. [The pigs are made out of beef, though]

Do I have to write a secret message?

I have to eat dinner.Toodles!

MOMO

Holy *beep* It's my turn to post!

As you can tell from the title, I forgot it was my day until 2 minutes ago when I was on the blog, angrily wondering why no on had posted yet...*sigh* Summer does this to me. I forget almost everything, except for random things and recreational things...Alright, since I want to grow up, and become a technology person who's super rich and super smart, (in an Apple sense, not a Microsoft sense...I know Bill Gates is rich, I still would rather work for Apple...though Google's great too...) I will go on about the new iPhone, and my new iPod TOUCH!!!*mind wanders off*

Trouble he will find you no matter where you go, oh oh
No matter if you're fast, no matter if you're slow, oh oh
The eye of the storm or the cry in the mourn, oh oh
You're fine for a while but you start to lose control
He's there in the dark, he's there in my heart
He waits in the wings, he's gotta play a part
Trouble is a friend, yeah trouble is a friend of mine, oh oh!
Trouble is a friend but trouble is a foe, oh oh
And no matter what I feed him he always seems to grow, oh oh
He sees what I see and he knows what I know, oh oh
So don't forget as you ease on down the road

 Oops! Hey there again...a little sidenote  here: Who the heck is "Jay-Z"? I should probably know this.(It counts as a question) Alright now the song...It's by Lenka, and it's called "Trouble is a Friend", I rather like it. Now to technology: THE NEW iPHONE! It's called iPhone 4, and the technology is "iOS4". It's so freakin' cool! Now you can skip the next paragraph, it has technology mumbo-jumbo in it...

*~:*-*:~*

This is a review from the Wall Street Journal, by Walt Mossberg. "Just three years ago, Apple wasn’t in the mobile-phone business at all. Since then, its game-changing iPhone has become the most influential smartphone in the world. Now, on June 24, the company will roll out the fourth generation of the device, called the iPhone 4...Physically, the iPhone 4 is attractive and feels great in the hand. Even the back is now clad in glass, which Apple claims is a superstrong variety 30 times tougher than plastic. I dropped it several times from a few feet onto a hard surface with no problem, and it acquired no scratches at all in my testing, even though I didn’t use a case or coddle it. (I know that he's testing...but gosh, just imagining a beautiful new i...Always brilliant at marketing, Apple has dubbed its new screen the “Retina display.” At a resolution of 960×640, it has four times the pixels of its predecessor and displays a whopping 326 pixels per inch. I don’t know how it compares with the human retina, but I do know that, just as Apple claims, text on the screen shows no jagged lines, even when expanded to giant size..." Then it just keeps going...blahblahblah about the new folders that you can make, a limited amount of multitasking, and the faults of the signal bars and AT&T being the only server-blah blah blah.

*~:*-*:~*

Alright. Now to my new iPod....Technically, it isn't mine exactly, but I use it a lot. (Up to yesterday when my dad took it...) It's actually my mom's, I mean, it's registered to her account. My dad won it from this science thing in which he sent in a suggestion, and his name got picked as one of the three people who won iTouchs <- I highly doubt that's how I'm supposed to name them...is it? Ah well, I'm too lazy to type iPod Touch six times. Anyways, it's really cool cuz I have these fun little games. One of 'ems called "Ninja" I love it! It's really fun, and then there's this traffic thingy in which cars crash...well they're not supposed to but, I tend to suck at it. :P Ah...oh there's this pointless game called "iDrag Paper" which is basically, you keep dragging the toilet paper roll until you get to the very end, as fast as you can. My fastest time is 10 seconds. Ummm... Yeah, I think I'm done for today. This is a rather large post....btw! Can anyone see the invisible stuff?

*~:*-*:~*

Questions!

1.If pro and con are opposites, wouldn't the opposite of progress be congress?  

2.Why is it that on a phone or calculator the number five has a little dot on it? 

3.Is it legal to travel down a road in reverse, as long as you're following the direction of the traffic?
4. When atheists go to court, do they have to swear on the bible? 

5.What do you do when you see an endangered animal that is eating an endangered plant?  

6.Why don't woodpeckers get headaches when they slam their head on a tree all day?

 *~:*-*:~*

It's Virgil's b-day in 6 days! YAY! Not that we're doing anything...

Alright, last time, no one wrote "kapoo", let's try again all right? After all, I even gave out a clue! There's lotsa invisible words today! Write "kapoo" if you see 'em!

Ciao!

Lebewohl,

Lynda  

P.S. I've just found out *giggle*, that I'm ticklish on the thigh....please wait while I get my brother to stop tickling me!

There, I'm back...I always though I wasn't ticklish...I used to be ticklish in the armpits, now that's gone, I'm ticklish on my thighs. *sigh* So much for being immune. On the bright side, it looks awkward, tickling one's thighs, and it's much harder too! YAY! I am kinda immune!

Washington, Adams, and Jefferson, Oh My!

*hum hum* Life's like a road that you travel on
When there's one day here an' the next day gone
Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand
Sometimes you turn your back to the wind

There's a world outside every darkened door
Where blues won't haunt you anymore
Where brave are free an' lovers soar
Come ride with me to the distant shore

We won't hesitate
Ta' break down the garden gate
There's not much time left today, yeahea...

Oh...Hello there! I'm watching/my brother's watching the Disney/Pixar movie, Cars. That was just the lyrics to "Life is a Highway". I rather like the song. I'm not going to wax poetic about "Voyage of the Dawn Treader", buuut, the trailer came out today!! YAY! I have nothing to write about....

Hmmm. Well, the first week of summer has been awesome, tiring, and kinda boring at the same time. Let's see, on Saturday or Sunday (whichever one my mom picks) we will go to an outlet, and shop! YAY! I can't wait. I love the smell of new stuff in a lovely and large mall or outlet...*daydream* Anyways, summer isn't that easy for me. I have to do "summer homework" from my mom. For example, every day, I write Chinese, and research a president, starting with Washington, Adams, and Jefferson, oh my!

OK! Now, I'm gonna go on with the questions.

1. Do you like pie?

2. What type?

3. Are you obsessed with anything? What?

4.What are you doing for Father's Day?

This last question is deep, thoughtful, and you MUST answer it. No: "...", "what?", "IDK"

5. When are you no longer a "CHILD" (I know it's 18, legally, but in your opinion)?

For all you people who bother to read  this part: HAHAHA... OVERACHIEVERS!!!...btw, if you do read this part, in the comments, write "Kapoo"

Luv, Lynda

dang i forgot to put in a title and now it's Saturday... frick. fail.

"HOW ABOUT A NICE GAME OF STRIP GLOBAL THERMONUCLEAR WAR?" —Randall Monroe, xkcd.com

1. Omg Auditions Imgonnadie

First and foremost, I've got auditions for a band/symphony-group-thing, which I've just about died a few too many times over in the past week or so. (Virgil's trying out for the same group. There are upper and lower groups. She'll make it into the upper; I'm just trying to get in. We both play the flute. Carrie also plays the flute.*)

2. Hands

Hands are pretty bloody impressive. As a FBI agent friend of one of my teachers once said, "Someone can kill you with their hands. They can't kill you with their feet." People can pull a gun with you quite easily with their hands. Doing that with your feet is harder. (Just a little bit.) A ring can symbolize a person being married... or they're just lonely, pitiful, and/or can't accept reality. Hands can also convey emotion. A girl "b*tch-slapping" you can show that she is really, really upset with you. The feel of another person's hand grasping to yours can convey love, trust, and/or fear.

3. Romance and the 6LCF

Status:

1 in a new relationship

1 in a existing relationship

1 in denial that she likes someone (but not really because she doesn't, but we're going to try to convince that she likes him/he likes her, anyway, since we don't have much else to do)

1 crushing over a certain someone

2 Not in a relationship/I dunno (Not that I don't care. I just dunno.)

4. Frikkin Pickles

So I was at the store buying pickles. I got little chip ones for my sammiches, but then had to go look for larger pickles for eating outside of sammiches. I picked up a jar of spears, thinking that they were dill spears, since the label was the exact same, but nooo. They were (agh) sweet pickles. I did not realize this until I took that first, horrendous bite. Now my retainer is going to taste like sweet pickles. Omg.

5. The Brand New Banner Thing!!!

(It was drawn by xiy, by the way.) I wanted to point out the little details to you that might have not caught them:

Virgil: Has symbol of the Deathly Hallows on shirt; is holding a pencil

Momo: Is holding a hedgehog; has unicycle on shirt; is in the typical "ta-da!" stance because she is hyper/happy

Carrie: Is wearing mismatching knee socks; has dinosaur on shirt; heart above head

xiy: Has eighth note and piano keys on shirt; has pencil behind ear; is carrying a notebook

Lynda: Is standing on books, pretending she is tall; has "NO SWIMMING" on shirt; is looking fondly at a dollar bill

House (me): Listening to music; has American Eagle logo on shirt; is the only one wearing a skirt

Other: Notice the lovely unicorn, url [that you are already at], dinosaur**, painter with cool hat, xiy's signature, rainbow, lovely radiant ray-thingys coming off of us, science beaker with bubbly liquid, glasses with fake nose/mustache, unicorn, Archie (who has chocolate ^_^), and subtitle "WHERE WE REJECT YOUR REALITY AND SUBSTITUTE OUR OWN"***.

6. What I Learned

Today, I learned two things:

1) Hugging someone when they're wearing a black tee shirt that is very warm can be rather pleasant.

2) Lynda should probably ask me to supervise her if she ever puts on mascara again.

With all due respect,

House

(Not too exciting, yeah. I know.)

Edit: I really suck at remembering to put in a title... yeah, sorry 'bout that, then.

*Which is surprising because we are all very awesome people. Not that flute isn't an awesome instrument or anything, but the tenor sax still has us beat by a lot. (In my usually-not-so-humble opinion.)

**She is my dinosaur, actually. Her name is Kitty and has taken up residence on Nerdfighteria Island.

***(Which is a cute little tribute to Adam Savage, professional mythbuster)
