Noelle - Day 340 (Stress!! YAY)

By -
Hi guys!
You probably looked once at the title and said, "Oh, great, Noelle's going to complain about her stupid finals again" but YOU WERE WRONG.  I AM NOT.

(although finals are going well, thanks for asking)

Anyway, no, I was joking around with a friend the other day and we realized that there are certain phrases that cause instant stress and dread in 0.3 seconds and I thought I'd make a list.  Trigger warning:  avoid if you're still in school, emotional, or have an upcoming deadline because seriously.  Instant dread.  Hehehehehe this'll be fun.  FOR MOI.

Noelle's Scary List of Dread-Inducing Phrases/Sentences:

  • So we're going to do a team-building exercise....
  • Your mother and I have been talking and....
  • Did you study for that test today?
  • Have you gotten your grade back yet?
  • Hey, can I, uh, talk to you for a second (gesturing away from the group you're with)
  • (teacher voice) <insert name> can you come here for a moment please?
  • So, where are we going to college?  (best accompanied by distant relatives and squealing about how cute you were as a child)
  • Alright, everybody stand up and introduce yourselves....
  • Hey!  <insert name> hasn't gone yet!
  • Have you started studying for finals yet?
What dread inducing phrases do you know and hate?  Comment below!  And since you survived this post, have an owl.

Bye!

DIY Notebooks!! - Kathleen

OK everybody, I hope you are having a great week! I, personally, have been super excited for today. Since school is starting soon, I thought I would share something I have been doing for a few years now. I like to decorate my school supplies in cute scrapbook paper. Some of my friends have asked me how to do it, so I'm going to show you how! Supplies: Spiral Notebook Scrapbook Paper Solid Color Printer Paper Graph Paper Liquid Glue Ruler Pencil Black Marker/Pen Directions: Trace your scrapbook paper to fit the notebook and cut it out. Then squeeze glue all over the front cover. Lay the paper down on top and use your ruler to push any air bubbles out. This is what it should look like now. 2. Write the title of your notebook (i.e. Math, English etc.) on the graph paper and cut it out, leaving a little room around it. 3. Trace around the graph paper on the colored printer paper, leaving about a centimeter of border. Cut it out and glue t...

Jay & Noelle - WRITINGS TIPS

By -
HEY GUYS!!! It’s Noelle and Jay, working on a post together!  (Gods help us) I’M HERE TOO, DUDES!! >:D Any who, we're doing a nice little writing tips post ...Like I said.  This is just a crazy post where two writers (also, character killers :D) will talk about writing and how to beat writer's block and...stuff like that.  Wow, I’m so articulate today. Very. But yeah, we’ll talk about the boring stuff. Then get to the cool stuff…..LIKE HOW TO KILL OF A CHARACTER AND MAKE IT COOL! (that’s her way of saying she likes killing characters)  Alright, I’m going to act like a lame talk show host and say, Jay, how do you beat writer's block? I mostly just do other writing styles for a bit, maybe work with other characters and such. Looking at comics, listening to music and drawing is also really helpful! (But sweet food is my real motivation, guys.) It’s about the same for me.  I’ve got a power playlist that I turn waaaay too high up and then ...

Jay- Day 301 (Another Story)

By -
Why hello there! Welcome, welcome! Remember that cute little Easter Bunny short story I wrote a while back? Well, I thought, since it was so much fun to write, i'll do another! Fun, right? This is another cute little fable made into reality. How about a demented version of...I don't know....Cinderella? The Little Mermaid? Sleeping Beauty??? No. No, those won't work. How about.....hmm let me think here....the Tooth Fairy? No, wait. Santa!! That's it! I'm gonna do jolly old Saint Nick. Let's get started shall we?? Another Beginning. Another End. Arthur was a good ten year-old. His mother worked in law and his father was a novelist. Both his parents made good money and lived in a two story colonial in Virginia. Arthur had a Labrador named Mercury and a little sister named Jane. "Hey mom? Can I open one of my presents?" He asked. You see, tomorow was Christmas. That made today Christmas Eve. Arthur, being the hyperactive ten year old he was, was ...
