Wrap Up October, Hello November!


Greetings All! 




(ssh I totally know it's November 10th) 

October has got to be my favorite month; the changing leaves, the crisp air, the gloomy days; and for us; school starting up again. There is something comforting in starting a new schedule and opening up a new school book. For me anyway. XP Not to metion the brand-new pencils…XD

October’s Music

The Flight of the Silverbird by Two Steps from Hell
This song is so much fun to listen to! I can totally imagine a bird with a long silver tail sweeping across the sky when I play it.

Darkness Keeps Chasing Me by Grace Vanderwaal 
I had never heard this song of Grace’s before, but when I borrowed her album from the library I instantly fell in love with it. The cello part and her voice mash perfectly together, and don’t even get me started on the lyrics. <333 

Waltz for Mary and John
This song. <333 



October’s Movies:

Sixth Sense
This movie was AMAZING. A little disturbing and creepy, but the story and characters and twists were so good!!! <333

The Lovebug
Big family hit. XD

 Herbie Rides Again 

Oliver Twist 
This movie was very well done. *thumbs up*

Captain America: Civil War
NOO MY HEART MARVEL WHY???

October’s Events

School Starting: Welp, I’m officially in 11th grade now (only one more year of schol, omw I’M NOT READY), and let me say, junior year is so far the easiest year I’ve had in high school so far. I only have Hebrew, Greek translating, French, American History, Chemistry, and some reading and writing to occupy my school hours. I just finished a crash-course Sci-Fi and Fantasy writing curriculum that was SO AMAZING AND HELPFUL. It’s making me so excited to start my sci-fi novel after Nano. :-D 

Reformation Day: We didn’t do a huge celebration this year for Reformation Day, just went over to a friend’s house to hang out and freeze to death outside. I should have worn my jacket…XD



So that was my month! Now tell me about yours! Did you watch any creepy movies? Listen to any good songs? How is Nano treating all you writerly types out there? :-D

(I promise I’ll fill you all in on what’s happening in my pirate story, Of Seas, Silver, and Shipmates soon. Nano has opened some doors into my story that I didn’t see coming…XD)

Namarie!

  1. Hey Mem!
    Wow, you read a lot! I started reading the Series of Unfortunate Events, but it had to go back to the library :\

    I also read the Rangers' Apprentice books recently! I'm up to the Sorcerer in the North. The Brotherband books are really good too!

Those Questions You Get Asked By Distant Relatives And How To Answer Them

Greetings, all! You know those questions that most kids get asked sometime in their life by well-meaning great-aunts, distant cousins, and the family dentist? Yeah, mm-hm. Those questions. The ones you get tired of answering because usually the people who are asking don’t even care about the answer; they just ask out of politeness or because they don’t know what else to talk about with a kid. I hate those questions. With a passion. So, I decided to think of different answers to give when I get asked those questions, and I’m going to share a few with you. I can’t wait to see people’s reactions when I answer with these. It’s going to be priceless. XD DISCLAIMER: Always remember to be polite, respectful, and courteous when you answer an adult; even if you’ve heard the question they are asking 100,000,000 times and are sick and tired of it. Thank you. ;-D Question #1: “What Grade Are You In?” Normal Answer: “I’m in 10 th grade.” New and Improved Answer:...
