hm, I'm bored today. fun fun. Watching more video clips, laughing at the stuf that really isn't that funny. I don't know but I could be watching a death scene or something and burst out laughing. except for Monsignor Renard, that wasn't funny, although there was a quote somewhere in there I liked Hm, well, I'd like to gift you all with more inflatable stuf. So I am pleased to present each and every one of you guys with an official, inflatable *drumroll please* pair of sunglasses! Huzzah! You have fun with those now. And you'll need them to block the sun too.

Well, I'm back. The news is...
I don't know if I'm going to be home-schooled anymore, but I really want to be. I don't want to go to a school in spanish. 9 different schools is enough for me, I don't want one in another language now.
I'm planning my costume still, but I'm not sure how I'm going to go about buying/making it. We have no sewing machine anymore, blast the fact that I had to move out of the country, when if I still lived in Florida I could have used my mom's sewing machine, which actually Amarië now has. @_@ run on sentence. heh. I could hand-stich it, but that would take foreeeeever. My other dilema is my parents won't take me seriously when I tell them I want a Frodo costume. Sooo, maybe, if I find a nice vest, coat, cloak, trousers, etc. that look similar here, I can hand-stitch the embellishments and changes, etc. to look like the costume. Of course, there's also the pointy ears...
*sighs* This is going to take a while.
Anyway, yeaaaah, I just needed to get that out.
*whacks with the inflatable sunglasses you guys never came to pick up, but will shortly...bwahahaha*

Today has been a really crappy day for me, other than it being Amarië's birthday. My head hurts, and I was told this morning that I am to go to a public school, which is completely in Spanish. I don't have trouble with Spanish, but the math is different, and that's my worst subject... and the customs and traditions are different too. School doesn't start until Februrary, so I have time to try and convince my parents to let me be home-schooled yet. It was the only thing I looked forward to for myself, when I moved here. I cannot express how much I dispise this accursed country. And I get told that I should be ashamed that I'm not proud of my birth-country. But I'm not. I think it's Spiffy that I have a dual-citizenship in both the USA and Costa Rica, but I'm just not happy here. I've been crying all day. As for school, High School is the most important (for those of you who are puzzled or confuzzled, and know that I'm not yet supposed to be in High School, I'm skipping a grade, which I'm not sure if I like the idea or not, but I'm kind of looking forward to it...) and dealing with something in a totally different language with the different customs and traditions and such, is going to make it really difficult for me... To make an analogy, how I feel about being put in a public school here, or just living here, is kind of like how Frodo felt, when he was atop the forked tower, and the orc whipped him... yeah, I know it sounds stupid but that's just how much I hate it here. The only good thing was that my mom said if we were in the USA in December, that I could go to the midnight premiere...in costume. SHe also said that she would help me with the details of the costume, but she said "I guess..." so I'm not sure if that's a yes or a no. I don't think she took any of this seriously but she said yes, so I will hold her to her word. (Curses, I should have recorded her as evidence...) Now just to find some clothes that look like the ones a hobbit, actually.. Frodo.. would wear. Yep, it's also independance day here, but I don't give a crap about that. *Leans out the window and yells at everyone who's near by that she's darn proud to be a U.S. citizen* so there!

Well, I haven't posted in a few days, but there's not much catching up to do. I posted in the Red Rose Inn, and in the Blue Wyvern. Two great inns in one forum- splendor! There aren't many posts in the Blue Wyvern, so if anyone reads this, we need more guests Erm well, apparently I was announced to be the new moderator in Imladris, for our new board. I still can't get in though... heh. It seems to be something of great magnificence, but unfortunately Imladris seems to be dying. I really wish we could revive it some more, so I don't know, if any of you guys would be interested in joining yet another forum (if you aren't already signed up with Imladris) the url is elentari.proboards18.comI still haven't done anything for my costume, except for maybe studying the costume... meaning watching a couple good movies. Yeah, from my post up there, I recently recieved Frod, the mini-balrog. It's from OFUM (official fanfic university of middle-earth) which is a great fanfic by Miss Cam, for those of you who might be in a state of confuzzlement. I think there was a nifty little rhyme to explain the minis.. Every name spelled wrong in _rings_A mini-balrog gets its wings. --A philosopher at large I believe that was it, correct me if I'm wrong though. We've also had a problem with our new mods, who couldn't get to the mod's area. (Imagine that!) But I believe now it has all been taken care of. For you two, please tell me if you can reach the mod's section now, and don't hesitate to post any ideas. We look forward to them! Well, I think that's about it.

once again.. I haven't posted anything in a while so, I'll just update on well.. anything worth mentioning! Well yesterday was my brother's birthday. We couldn't celebrate it with him because he's up in the US at his university but we talked to him online, so that's well. Erm...my aunt has been felling less than chippy lately, she had an operation recently. So, we make her food and make sure she's alright and everything considering she only lives a block away. She's getting better. But if I'm not on at every waking moment, like I usually am, I'm probably at her house. My other aunt went mad. Well, she's been mad for quite a while... But she's getting help, so I hope she'll be alright. I signed up at CoE... so I may be making new ecards for them or something soon. I decided to up my RPing recently, so I'm posting in the Green Dragon again, and I hope to join in on an RPG so that I can post in Rohan. So I'm now in a few inns... I think 4 at the moment. Green Dragon, Red Rose, Blue Wyvern, and the Silver Birch. all great inns, by the way. Well, I think that's about it for now. Yup. I'll be back though! ;D

Hi Mippin! I had no idea till I started reading your journel that you didn't live in the US. Are you happier now there than you were earlier? I'm sorry you have to go to an all Spanish school! That would sort of stink, I think. BTW, I have a question. Who is agent lofty? Just wondering. Well, I hope your life is going good. ;D "claims the sunglasses I failed to get before and tosses Mippin an inflatable "Tolkien obsessed and proud of it" t-shirt"
