Jay - Yo, Whats Up?

Image
Hey, dudes. I'm back for the New Year! Yay! First off, I am so so sorry for not being on for the past two months. I go to public school, unlike all the other bloggers on this blog, so I don't have as much free time to post about random stuff. (Not saying that homeschoolers have it easy; they don't) Also, with Christmas and other events, I've been buried under a mound of crap that I just now was able to escape from. Other than that apology, one more thing: I may not post as much as before. School's important right now, as I start high school next year, and I need to focus on that too. And my art, which is the most important thing to me right now. Blogging used to be number one on my list, but now it's really far down under a bunch of other stuff. So please, don't get mad if I'm not spamming y'all with posts every other day, okay? Alright, so now that that is taken care of, I can get down to business (TO DEFEAT, THE HUNS!!). My old posts ...

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Hope you have an amazing, spectacular, God-filled, awesome, snowy, lovely Christmas this holiday season!  And that's all I have to say.  Go spend time with your family!

Merry Christmas!!! - Kathleen

Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukah! Whatever your religion may be (even no religion) I wish you the happiness and blessings of the season! Today is going to be very quick, and very short, because today is a family day. All I want you to do is to watch this video. It's amazing, powerful, and just inspiring.

Noelle - Ignored Super Powers

Hi! I know, I know.  I said I was going to take requests for December's posts, but I'm backing out of that deal because I put off writing my posts + had ideas for both this week and next week.  And I think after Christmas, I'm just going to...fade off into the distance...and take a break.  That's okay, right?  Right. Anyway, today, we're talking about super powers.  Specially super powers that would be super  awesome, but nobody thinks of, because they're all busy being like "I want to teleport", "I want to fly", "I want to be able to turn invisible."  NO.  STOP.  YOU DO NOT.  So yeah!  Here's my list of super awesome, yet mostly ignored super powers: 1. The ability to communicate with/control birds.   Ant Man step aside, your little ant army is ridiculous.  I want a owl army. Reason it's awesome:  Birds are everywhere - over the ocean, at both poles, in the desert, in the jungle, in cities, in caves...you ...

Just a Little Chat - Kathleen

Image
Hi guys! How are you? I'm good. So I didn't plan anything for today, which is kind of nice, because now we can just sit down and have a chat! I haven't done that since August! So I've been going to Christmas concerts and recitals lately. At our Masterworks concert, there were 800 people. I didn't think that many people could fit inside the church we were at, but apparently it was standing room only. We got a standing ovation. Christine Brewer sang with us, and I was over the moon. I was literally in tears. One of the families in our homeschooling group is moving soon, I think the movers are coming the 27th, which is a bit of a bummer because they have some little ones who won't get to enjoy the Christmas presents. So I went to their going away party yesterday and I'm also going to "hang out with/chaperone" their daughter, my sister, and their friends at the mall on Friday because they are doing a scavenger hunt. I've always wanted to do o...

Get Ready with Me - Kathleen

Image
I'm going to be honest with you, I completely forgot about this until just now. 😞😶😓😕 How are you? I'm doing really well. Yesterday, I had a concert (I sing) and we got to sing with Christine Brewer. If you don't know who she is, go search her. I highly recommend you try and find O Holy Night by her. I was in tears by the end of it. The process for getting ready is actually pretty simple, but it takes a long time. Get Ready with Me videos are pretty popular on YouTube, so I thought I would try something along those lines in a blog post! Lets get to it! So the first thing I did was my nails. In our concerts, everything has to be pretty natural, and my nails were painted copper. I don't think that's the most natural thing, so I switched it to Mademoiselle by Essie. I talked about this in My Nail Polish Collection and Ranting about Essie , so I won't say anything about it here. It doesn't show up well on camera, but it is a nice, milky pink.

Noelle - This is Me

Image
Hi y'all! Side note to the people who don't like reading my super long, boring text posts: there'll be an art tutorial (sorta) at the end of the post, so there.  Have some fun artsy content. Okay, intro, right.  Um, hi!  Today I'm going to be doing a list/description of myself, because...well, when I was writing last Saturday's post , which was also super long and boring, I realized that a lot of times the way I am online doesn't really match up with who I am in person.  Not to the extreme that I lie or fabricate stuff to sound cooler, but just I don't say everything.  Which is okay! But today I thought I'd do a list called "Things I Don't Really Talk About", but since I know me and know that I'll wander off on tangents, I'm just calling it "This is Me", and I think I'll probably link it to my profile on the Authors page . Sooo...hi!

Christmas Candles and a Little Self - Promo - Kathleen

Image
Hi all.... So school started again... Boy howdy I was not ready for the tsunami that hit me... So I know y'all love these posts (sarcasm) but I have another review for you. These might not be the favorite, but we will make you love it. Or I could just move it over to another blog I'm on 😛 More on that later. So it's December! The Christmas posts are coming in full force! Christmas Break is almost upon us! New Years! My sisters birthday! Basically. this month is going to be a month full of me squealing because Christmas is my favorite holiday for obvious reasons. Candles are one of them. Christmas candles are something that will automatically make me happy. So I'm going to do a review post on all the Christmas candles I have. Which is six. So lets do it. Lets start with Yankee Candle. Everyone knows the smell of Christmas trees. This Balsam and Cedar candle pretty much nails it. The thing about Yankee Candles though, is that every candle smells a little diff...

Noelle - Update On Life and Christmas-y Stuff

Image
Hi everybody! I've got a lot of material to cover in one blog post, because I'm a terrible procrastinator who puts off everything from essays that could literally cause me to fail my entire course and potentially not allow me into college to blog posts that I enjoy and love to create, and I've been putting off writing posts that actually talk about stuff I'm interested in and just...yeah.  I don't even need an intro, that was an intro all in one go. Okay, so. Update On Life: I used to do all kinds of interesting things, like, I dunno, What My Life Is Like posts and just interesting little tidbits like that (that's literally just a random link to my old blog)  I'd say that changed when International BFFs started up, because more people were viewing it and it wasn't exactly a personal blog anymore.  Not that anybody would be mad at me for doing more personal posts, and I don't really feel the need to do personal posts anymore, but idk.  Sometim...
