Greetings, all!
Welp, it’s once again the start of another month. Already. XD
For me this month was actually fairly slow, and I got a ton of reading and writing
done. I’ve been super tired though; my adrenaline must have been depleted from
these last few months. XD I hope you all had an awesome July!!! Also hope that
Camp Nano went well for you all. It was super fun for me.
July’s Music:
Shape of You Piano Cover by Niko Kotoulas
This guy is good. I
really enjoy this cover of Shape of You by Ed Sheeran (this is the only version
of that song I listen to…the original is not very appropriate. XD)
Ready Aim Fire by Imagine Dragons
I LOVE THIS SONG. IT’S
ONE OF MY FAVOURITE IMAGINE DRAGONS SONGS.
Not All Heroes Wear Capes by Owl City
This song is so
sweet. I definitely like this acoustic version better than the original.
July’s Movies
Jurassic World
The Seeker
The Village (wow,
just wow)
Peter Rabbit
Man of Steel
The Incredibles 2
Doctor Strange <3
Star Trek (2009)
The Clone Wars (yes, we are starting the TV
series once again XD)
July’s Books
Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident by Eoin Colfer
Tales of Redwall: Marlfox by Brian
Jacques
The War of the Worlds, The
Invisible Man, The Island of Doctor
Moreau, When the Sleeper Wakes, The First Men on the Moon, The Sea Lady by H.G. Wells (well, that’s a lot of disturbing sci-fi books :-Z)
July Events
Camp Nano: Camp
Nano was awesome this month!!! I had a lot of fun. Not as much happened in our
cabin as last July, but there were one or two memorable occasions…including the
name of our cabin being changed from The Fellowship of the Keyboards to The Frogship
of the Keyboards (why “frogship” Jane??? XD) and Quinley's and my characters
sort of…rebelled…I think they were fed up with our tortures. XD All in all it
was a fantastic Camp. I completed my goal…after I lowered it…and I was very
happy to get my certificate. (I’m official now XD) Of Seas, Silver, and
Shipmates has a wonderful head start. (And yes, you will be hearing more about
it in the future, don’t you worry. XD)
Moving: YES WE OFFICIALLY
MOVED!!! Not into our new house yet, but out of our old one and into my grandparent’s
house. We have been painting our new house, and as soon as the new carpet gets laid
we will move in. I’m excited!!! We’re only about a two-minute walk to the
library, and it’s such a tiny town that we could pretty much bicycle or walk to
everything else. :-D
Incredibles 2 in
Theater: One of my best friends had a birthday this month, so to celebrate we
went and saw Incredibles 2 in the theater. It was better than I was anticipating,
and I enjoyed it. There were a couple of things in it that I did not care for,
but all in all I’m glad I saw it. :-)
July Writing
I wrote 5,511 words
this month in Of Seas, Silver, and Shipmates. XD I also started working on a
new song and possibly thinking about a short story. More updates on those in
the future.
AND NOW, FOR MY
ANNOUNCMENT.
*drum roll*
Music, Mystery,
Middle Earth, and Mitochondria is ONE YEAR OLD!!!
*confetti horns blow*
It technically was
one year old last week…but I sort of forgot…so oops. XD
ANYWAY. In
celebration I will be posting an Ask Me Anything post next week. You can ask
your questions in the comment section below and I will answer them (providing they
are not inappropriate. If they are I reserve the right to refuse to answer
them. :-))
SO YAY. XD
I hope you all have
an AWESOME August!!!

ReplyDeleteAlso as for movies you watched this July, I love the movie Peter Rabbit too, and I love that Beatrix's boyfriend wanted to open a toy shop to make Harrods regret that they fired him. XD (I regret showing my characters that movie...I think that may have inspired one of their rebellion ideas.)

Ooh, awesome questions!!! The question is...the thing that I thought was the grossest, or what I thought was good but most people would think was gross? XD Thank you Jane!!!
How about we make it 'the thing you thought was the grossest' because that's easier to answer.
