Twilight (Again!)

Hi!
Haven't posted in a few days.

Anyway, on Sunday I bought Twilight and New Moon from Target. I'm going to buy Eclipse and Breaking Dawn when I go to Barnes and Noble even though I like Borders better. But I have a giftcard for Barnes and Noble so I might as well use them.

Sorry I'm acting obsessed. I just wanted to see how good it was, and it is pretty good! They sure can make somebody read!

Well, not much to say today, but see you all later!

Twilight

Yeah, I know.
Twilight is now on everyone's lips.

But why is it on everyone's lips?
Is it because of Edward/Bella?
Is it because it's cool?
Is it becauce people love the author?
Is it because it turned into a movie?
Is it because the writing goes to extremes?
Is it because people just...love it?
Is it...
All these questions are basically accurate.
Yes, the readers love Edward and Bella.
Yes, they think it's cool.
Yes, ....
Anyway, the books weren't as famous until they were turned into a movie. Now people are reading the books. Before, not so much.
I think from the book they like the writing, how epic, dramatized, and extreme it is.
For the movie, I think they just like seeing the book as a movie, and if they haven't read the book, want to check it out.

So, this brings us to our point: Is Twilight highly loved only because of the movie; or because of the writing?

Okay, readers, this is where you decide.
A: It's the movie that made the Twilight saga popular.
B: It was the writing/author.

My gosh, it's only been about a month and I already have 4 followers!

That's a milestone for me.

I really want to thank all of my followers. Here's my time to embarrass or make you a 'superstar'.

Thank you Claudia(she's a writer!), Uri(Apostol 7), Kristlynn(she insane, but still a treasure!), and my newest follower, Jillian(I think she's like Kristlynn!).

You 4 have made me feel ontop of the world.

THANK YOU

Music and Musician:Lady Gaga

Hey.

Yesterday as I put up a music player on this blog, I was thinking about people who sing and what their message is to the American person.

Then I was thinking about Lady Gaga. Some of you may like her, hate her, or not even know about her.

I guess she's fine. I only like her song, Just Dance. To listen to it, click menu on the music player (disguised as turquoise IPod Nano ) and click on the song to listen to it.

Anyway, back to the subject: I personally think she's fine, but a lot of her songs are inappropriate for younger people.
Otherwise I love the songs' beats and such, not so much the lyrics...

But here's some information and a picture of Lady Gaga.

Lady Gaga
Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanott (a.k.a. Lady Gaga) was born March 28, 1986 in Yonkers, New York, U.S. Ms. Germanott is Italian American. The name "Gaga" was taken from her favorite band, Queen. She is an American singer, songwriter, and musician. As a young girl Ms. Germanott had a lot of musical talent and has very diverse, pop/electronica genres.
She began as a songwriter for many big singers today such as Fergie, The Pussycat Dolls, Britney Spears, New Kids on the Block, and even Akon. Akon started Lady Gaga's musical career as a singer by giving her a record deal at his own recording label, Kon Live Distribution.
Her most famous songs are "Just Dance" (nominated for Best Dance Record at the 51st Grammy's) and "Poker Face". Lady Gaga has been working in the professional musical force since 2006 and is still going. Instruments and occupations she currently has are vocals (obviously),synthesizing, piano, DJ, and Go-Go dancing. Her debut album was "The Fame" released in 2008.
Fun Facts:
*Lady Gaga is a natural brunette, but dyed her hair because she was constantly mistaken as musician Amy Winehouse.
*She loves fashion!
*Her mother was a business partner and her father was an internet entrepenuer. Their names were Cynthia and Joseph Germanott.
To learn more about Lady Gaga check out her website.

And that was the music and musician of the week!

Happy Earth Day!

Sorry I haven't posted in ages!

I was waiting for some comments and such.

I'm expecting a new follower on one of my 3 blogs and I'm really excited because we'll get another person to join our little 'community'.

Anyway, happy Earth Day and let me wedge in a tiny, horrible drawing of the Earth today.

But before I do that I just want to send a quick shout out:

URI, WHY AREN'T YOU POSTING???

Today I hope you remembered to where your Earth colors: Brown, blue, green, and many more!

To see some cool little Earth stuff and to check out other things check out this site and this site. Have fun and enjoy the sites!(Hint: They're all about Earth Day and conservation!)

Renovation

So my blog Astro-Knight Kingdom has been renovated. Now it is called Eyes From My Travels. My characters Jane and Gabe now have their own blog where they just talk about details in their life that the chapters don't cover.

It's like a behind the scenes thing.

So check it out at this, to-be-changing URL: Eyes From My Travels (click on it!)

Sorry, no Thank Goodness it's Friday picture today, sorry. It's been a busy day and had no time.Also, The Wanderer's Weekly Challenge had no winners, no commentators.So I'm stopping that temporarily until I get comments for it.Though I did enjoy looking at the blogs and such, and of course having your company.

Been Noticing...

That things have been moving very slowly these past oh...weeks I've been here at Blogger. So I'm temporarily leaving. I'm thinking I've had no business even starting a blog. For one, what's the use if I spend my time writing chapters of a story on my blog Novel when I have no comments, no reactions, no emails, no followers, no anything! It's as if I'm in a big fat pool where no one can see me, here me. I know I have really kind people who comment here and there, but, can someone ask for more once in a while?
This has been my most successful blog, and I have to thank my followers, my commentators (right word?), and whatever else. You guys are my motivation. But on my Astro-Knight Kingdom blog and my Novel blog, what motivation is there? Just...me? I dunno. All I know is that yes it may take a little while for people to start seeing my blog, but think hundreds of people have seen my blog...and people have said they've really enjoyed my blog...
I'm just wondering if I'm getting what I deserve, as in if I'm supposed to get more and if I'm supposed to have 'hollow' blogs. I know I have a little motivation thing on my gadget bar. But that was supposed to be more for those who would come to my blog. I want to inspire, create joy, cease pain, in all one sitting.
But I've learned...I can't expect. I can't assume. Nothing will happen if I just post good posts and believe that people will comment and such. Imagine, I've created a challenge and no answers have come back. Is it too much for people, or is it too boring?
I've been mulling the question over and over-is blogging right for me? I mean Claudia is a writer, and she gets followers, readers, and commentators since she's a blooming author, Uri gets followers and readers and commentators because his blog is about religious things and people like that. And on and on and on.
I have blogs...and people don't see my purposes. At first Astro-Knight Kingdom was going to be an imaginary city in space on and imaginary planet; but then I changed to to being a humorous blog with pics and commentaries. The Secret Wanderer is fully from core to skin on inspiring, and Novel is just for giving people something to read that they might enjoy and to comment on.
And yeah I know that blogs aren't just about comments, followers, and readers; but most of the time, it's as if I'm talking to a wall.

It's almost time for change, people. Get ready.

Power Outage Monday

What a Monday it was!

So like it started a little after 9 o'clock when all the lights started flickering, and then they totally turned off. Power was out the whole day. It was enjoyable, but our neccessaties such as computers were dormant and so couldn't use em.

When I was home I was a wreck. No TV, no radio, no computer, no microwave, no oven, no working fridge, but I did have the IPod(a silver Nano if you're wondering) and the gas stove, thank goodness. Candles were lit in the house and I had plenty of flashlights. But I went to bed early, since when it got dark; barely any light. I enjoyed quality time with family that is usually not shared because; you got it; the TVs and computers and the IPod and radio were in use.

But today the no-electricity period ended at around 11:45. What a glorious yet sad time, when the heaters began once again, the lights filtered my eyes, and my fingers touched a working computer for the first time in hours...

Well, this was what happened. We've all had a bad drought for the last few years and then we started having a bunch of rains. The ground got saturated and a few trees couldn't make it. Two houses were crunched halfway by trees, and power lines fell swiping the treasured electricity with them. The electricity companies were working hard because it wasn't only our area with fallen trees.

So I had a very interesting beginning of the week, how about you?

Zooming, Yet Slugging

Ok, so I think I've been posting to much on Novel. It's very addictive. Anyway, I won't drown in my own sympathy. That would be selfish. Um, I think...I think this is a wasteful post. Why am i even posting? Gosh, I talk to much. Oh, I have a perfect idea. I'll think up a poem for Novel. After all, I'm not supposed to only write a story. That gets a little bland after a while. Ok, I'm also have technical problems.

I downloaded a template on a website called BTemplate I believe? (Go to Claudia's blog and check out the comments on her post on Macro-Zooming for the URL) Anyway, ti was a zip file/folder. I extracted the files from it, and now I don't know what to do. Um, maybe I should check out The Blogger Guide (a really cool blog on how to customize your blog. it's very massive though!).

So yeah. Bye!

Welcome

I want to welcome Uri (of A Pentecostal's Opinions) to this blog. he is now a blog author and will be posting a little bit spreading the word about anything he wants. So welcome him, check out his blog, and talk to him. he's a really good person and i know him pretty well.

Ok, so nothing big today. think i'll go back over to Novel. (links of most blogs added in posts on my link gadget.)

Seriously Long Post Of Nothing

So hello again.

I have nothing to do so I talk to you all. I'll supply a pic which should be to your left. It's just a picture, doesn't symbolize anything as far as I know. Ha ha. Um, so my days go really fast and I'm usually on Blogger (i have lots of time on my hands, belief, lots of time). This will make up for a little while. Just comment and comment and comment and comment and comment. Check out the blogs I'm following and the blogs hat are linked. I have some really good links and blogs I'm following, a few of which are writing blogs such as So She Writes, Novel, and Making My Moves. In fact, that's all of them. Those are the blogs that have stories. I really favor So She Writes. That ones a good one. Making My Moves is alright. It's like one of those you might be iffy on, but you still love it no matter what. Here's what the stories are about. They currently have no titles as far as I know.

1.So She Writes: About a boy named Seth who's younger sister died. He is homeless; his mother in jail, his father somewhere in the world possibly dead. So he moves in with foster parents name Blake and Sasha and their daughter Jenn. (I think Jenn is an only child. I'll confirm that later.) Anyway, he now is going to a new school, hoping to learn about his father and to adjust to his new world without Violet. (Description is so far.)
2.Novel(my own): Gabe and Jane live with their mother and travel everywhere because of their mother's constant job changes. One morning they have to move again, but just in a different area of town. The move lands them in Free's, their mother's boyfriend, bachelor apartment. (<~~~ That is so far.)During the summer, they finally end up getting a home to themselves that will hopefully be their permanent home. But, landing back in the depression zone again, Jane and Gabe's mother is caught by the police for doing illegal things, sending them to a temporary foster family for half the school year. How will Gabe and Jane survive yet another move; this time with a different family?
3.Making My Moves: This story is about Amy and Nate during the school year.They go through some problems in early teen-hood with enemies and friends. (Sorry, this one doesn't have much since it hasn't covered a wide step of the story.)

Ok, those were my 'reviews' and check them out from the links in this post or the links on my gadget column. Anyway, that should give them more traffic and such. Um...I think I'm outta juice. Hmm, well, just have fun and enjoy your Tuesday. It's better than Monday any day. (Usually)

Bye!

I'm Done, Enough

It's time to be optimistic. I don't care if barely anyone is commenting. I don't care if no one is doing The Wanderer's Weekly Challenge. What I care about is that my followers and other readers/friends are enjoying this blog.

Right now it's just morning and my hair is like a mess. It needs to get braided but I hate braids so good luck with that for me. Um...I just have a bunch of time. I think I'll go over to Novel and write Chapter 3. Or maybe a poem...Whatever.

Ok, so I have a boring life. Oh well. Um, I really like company and comments...Ooh, I think I'll seriously go and write another chapter or write a poem.

Bye! Zaniac

Please

Please, I'm begging.

Do The Wanderer's Weekly Challenge please.

Q:Can't find it on the main page?
A: Go to the links located on the left side somewhere betweeen two gadgets and click on The Wanderer's Weekly Challenge. It may seem monstrous only because the rules take up 3/4 of the post. But just go down to the part with the numbers and questions. It's fun, mostly pop culture, and you get some rewards. It would be helpful if you read the rules and description though.

Thanks. At least comment or link someone to my page. You are pratically already doing so if you are following.

Still Being Aware

This Conficker worm is still on the 'prowl'. So I'm wondering if I should
a)limit my Internet usage(like that's possible)
b)stop being afraid and just risk it
c)end my Internet usage(in a million years which means NEVER!!!)

I'm really worrying because I don't want to pay for anything on this comp. and it's not even my total property (multiple users). I'm basically broke and I won't buy much unless I have much-Wait, that didn't come out right...it should be 'many', right? Anyway, I should get my own on my next b-day which had better come soon because I really don't want to be responsible for anything on this computer.

Umm, I think I'm done. I'm all nerves because of the worm and I can't stop thinking about it...Oh, and I want to thank my commentators (that the right word?) who posted on my April 3rd ( the date of course) post. Very inspiring. I think I'm done...??? Ok, so I'm soon going to make another blog which would be writing drafts of a novel and some poems of all types. So like, be ready for it.

Love At First Sight or First Chat?

I've been mulling over Uri's (A Pentecostal's Opinions)'The One' post. Love...What does it have to do with us? No, what does it have to do with me? Ok, so right now I've been chatting on and on with a special someone, and it feels as if there is a close connection, as if it was meant. But I've heard of lust and such, so is it real? I feel as if I'm dreaming...And still in the real world at the same time. But I'm going to put it into the hands of God. He will lead me to where I should go with this relationship. If it just nothing, it will be nothing. If it is something, it will be something. I'll have patience, and trust. But what do you think, reader?
