International BFF's

Hey hey! How was your Monday lovely readers? Enjoying the start of school? Well, hopefully this post will make you forget about your school troubles, or forget that I never started school... because I never stopped...   #Homeschooled   Anyway, onto the post!

Hi! It's been a good long time hasn't it! I have switched to Mondays per Noelle's request, so lets do this Mondays! My mission is to brighten your Monday by at least 100%! So lets start the great first day of school off with one big Happy Third Birthday to the International BFF's Blog! Yaaaaay! Because yesterday was the blog's birthday, I thought I would share some super cool/cute birthday cakes/decorations. I'm just gonna put them all down in a big list because that's easier. I tried to find all different types of cakes and decorations to please all the different kinds of people. Forgive me if you don't find something you like, but I hope you do. So, lets get to it! Yep. OK, just realized that lots of these are pretty girly.... sorry.... :/ I hope you don't mind, I just really liked all of these. This is a super short post, but I have some AWESOME ideas for the next couple of months (haha up until May...) an...

Hi guys! Many of you probably remember my recent post, 7 Truths of Being a Writer.  Remember?  No?  Oh well, here, you can have a link so you can read it all over again :D Anyway, some of you seemed to like it, and so I decided to do one about artists...well, turns out we have more problems than truths, so that's what I'm doing.  I hope you enjoy! (Note: although it would make sense for me to draw out these problems, none of this is my artwork.  Because I'm lazy as heck.  So yeah, I do not claim credit for any of these) Problem #1:   When it comes to our artwork, we are very self-conscious...over time.  YOU ALL KNOW ITS TRUE. Problem #2:   Our brains and our hands never seem to quite cooperate. Problem #3:   People do not understand.  Whether it comes to the different between art pencils and regular pencils, to the importance of different kinds of sketchbooks...to THE ARTIST'S BUBBLE, which should be respe...

Sup, guys. First off, this week has been hectic as hell. My brother broke his ELBOW while riding a skateboard, I'm heading back home on Monday, and school's starting up. No fun for me. :( But anyway, I decided to do a post similar to Noelle's 7 Truth's About Writers, which I'm not gonna link because I'm lazy. Mine's gonna be a tad bit different though. (More like really different) 7 Truths About Actors! We're overdramatic about EVERYTHING. We all have a certain method to our madness, even if it's kinda out there. Your cast ends up being your family. We don't care what people may think, and we don't mind embarrassing ourselves on stage. The whole world is a stage, and you're the leading star. When someone says 'QUIET ON SET/STAGE' the whole friggin' place goes deathly silent. And everybody freezes too. *Has nothing to do with the message but still adds it* We all like to yell on stage ...

Hey guys! So, this is gonna be another quick boring week, but next week will be more fun, and less boring-ish. Today, however, I have another coloring page for you! This is a page from Johanna Basford's Secret Garden (which is AMAZING!!!), the peacock page! This was probably the quickest I've ever filled in a coloring page, and I was really happy with the results! Well, like I said, quick and (hopefully not) boring! I may have something more interesting next week, like, oh I dunno, a crab funeral? You'll have to wait till next week to find out!!! MWAHAHAHA!!! But for now, buh-bye!!!

Hello, It's me. Butting into the weekdays even though my blog post day is Saturday.  *shrug* So I don't have much time to write out a long, interesting post, but for those of you who have been following my 31 Days Art Challenge, I present: WEEK THREE - Hope you like it! Bye!

Hey hey! I was recently taking pictures for another post on this blog when I stumbled upon a picture I'd forgotten I'd taken. No, its nothing embarrassing or mind-blowing, just some nail art. But I have it so I'm deciding to post it. I mean, it's not like I totally forgot that I already posted this... maybe? Anyway, onto the post!

You know what I've realized? Whenever I have a down day, I think to myself, "Kathleen, you should write some posts today." But then I think, "Kathleen, that takes too much time. Just write one." So I just wight one. But today, I'm not only writing one. I'm also prepping several. "Good job Kathleen. Taking advantage of the time you have."  Hi guys! How are you? Enjoying school if you've started? Crying if you haven't? You'll be ok. You can do it. So I love fall. I love it. Everything about it. And the one thing I love most about fall is the food. Pumpkins. Cinnamon. Cranberries. All of it. So I decided to make a list of all the food I want to make this fall. I got all this from Pinterest. (I'm obsessed.) So let's get started! This sounds really good. Like a grown up fall grilled cheese. Yummers. Apple cider donuts?!?!?!?! Why haven't I heard of this?!?!?! And this just sounds good for a little party or ...

Hi guys! It's your favorite Saturday blogger - and it's SATURDAAAAAAAY!  Woot woot!  So to the people who like seeing my artwork, I apologize, I only have like three, maybe five, pieces for you to see today.  BUT.  FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO LIKE OTHER PEOPLES ART: today's the day!  Note that I do not claim credit for any of the pieces...well except the ones that are mine.  I claim those. Let's just get on with the post. I've found a bunch of amazing original art recently, so stick with me.  This particular Rex is one of a bunch of various animals, but I was too lazy to track down my favorite (the orca) I really like this one because idk...it doesn't have meaning specifically but it's just really cool looking and yeah.

Hi guys! Sorry for posting out of the blue (and doing a pretty skimpy boring post) but I just wanted to show you that I finished WEEK 2 of my "What I Wore These 31 Days" Challenge!  For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, you can learn more here and here .

Hey guys!! I decided to do a movie review for this post, since I saw a movie on Wednesday. Now, don't ask why I saw a movie on Wednesday. It was on a complete whim! But back to the topic at hand. I'm not the biggest DC fan, and I'd much rather see a Marvel movie, if given the chance. But, since my dad was super excited to see it, I begrudgingly went with him to see Suicide Squad. And man, were we disappointed. (Spoilers!) The movie is basically about this lady who groups together a bunch of villains in the hopes of making them a super hero team. The team consists of ten different people, though only eight of them are villains. The other two are there to make sure the villains don't turn on the good guys.

What up, peeps?! Today I'll be doing the 30 Questions About You challenge, started by our new newest author, Kathleen! I have been nominated by JJ (Loved the GIFs by the way...;)), so I guess I gotta do it. AND I SHALL HAVE FUN!!! Onwards!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Were you named after anyone? I was named Anna after two of my great grandmothers When was the last time you cried? Can't remember the exact date, but sometime in late July. I had just finished  Allegiant ... Do you have any kids? I mean, legally I could be married, but.... NO. If you were another person, would you be friends with yourself? Wha? I dunno! It what depend on what personality I would have as not-me. If I had the exact same personality as well, me, yeah. (Ew, too many commas...) Do you use sarcasm a lot? I use a healthy amount...usually... Will you ever bungee jump? YASSS!!!! Bungee jump, sky dive, roller coasters, I LOVE thrills!!! What's your favorite ...

Hey guys!! It's Noelle, back to tell you: this is post five hundred and one!!!!!!!  How cool is that?!  I know we've had a bunch of celebrations lately - 400 posts wasn't that long ago, and neither was the end of 365, and many of you don't know it but August 28th is International Bff's "Birthday" (IBFs turned three this year!!) BUT I'M CELEBRATING ANYWAY. We have - 500 posts, 10 authors (7 of which actually post), and we're approaching 8,000 page views ! How cool is that?  I mean it's not as many as some of the big blogs out there but it's definitely progress from IBFs humble beginnings.  Plus we really are international now, with authors in St. Louis, California, Idaho, (soon-to-be) England, Italy, and other cool places! Anyway that's all I have to say today...sassy skeleton out.
