Scrambled Eggs for Spinj

Hewwo! :3

...

Okay, well, that was random, though I do say so myself. I had no idea on a title for my post, so... meh :P Anyway, how are you guys? Feeling well?

 Thing's have been... interesting, to say the least, around here! In a good way, of course! :P

 I had an audition today for the next Gilbert and Sullivan production, which is "Trial by Jury". I got a few compliments from the channel, which I thought was neat, and I didn't mess up the song like I thought I was going to.
 I also found out that there is another show of Pirates of Penzance which will be showing sometime in November-December this year, and I found the auditions for it! So I'll be auditioning for that as well... maybe I'll be lucky enough to get offered a principle role!



 The Winter Holidays have been pretty fun so far, and It's a pity that there's only one more week of them left! They've been pretty eventful though. I went to a pottery wheel class and made some bowls, which I'll be picking up in a few weeks time after they've been fired. We also did some painting at the Art Gallery, went ice skating (the ice skating was epic, because we got to go on TV!) and plus I've been catching up with friends. Also got rained on a lot (because I stupidly left any water proof clothing at home) and joined in with a Free Rights Marriage Equality rally. And I got rained on a lot at that too.


 I introduced one of my friends to the Skulduggery Pleasant series, and she's now decided that we should make a fan movie. xD The original plan was to make a movie about how Skul's wife and child were murdered and how Skul turned into a skeleton, but now we're wondering whether or not to do something with Darquesse in it or something from the earlier books. Main problem would be doing special effects and all that... but we're working on it. :3

 Also, I found out that Derek Landy is (again) writing a script for a Skulduggery Pleasant movie! An actual movie! I'm really excited about this! I reckon it'll be awesome... :3 I'll definitely be at the cinema to watch it when it comes out!



 Speaking of Scrambled eggs, I think it's my turn to make my dinner - omelette!

 Will see you all next time!

A New Years Holiday!

Hallo hallo!

 How are you all? Did you have a good New Years? Did you get to watch some fireworks at midnight? Or did you go somewhere for New Years?

Well, I had a pretty cool new Years Holiday! My parents, siblings and I headed down to the country, and spent a few days with my friend Drew and his parents.

 So we drove down to their holiday house on Tuesday. We kept stopping off little towns and getting out for a walk, but I didn't get out of the car for the whole drive, so I spent about 5+ hours sitting in the car. XD That was a very foolish thing to do... I got out of the car feeling terribly stiff. XD

When we got there there was a slightly awkward feeling, and I just kinda stood around trying to make myself as small as possible. We had dinner, then Drew took my brother and I for a walk down to the Pier. It was rather nice down there, but we couldn't see much in the dark.

 The next day we got up early, so we went fishing. We didn't catch anything, and Drew, my brother and I got rained on. So we headed back to the Holiday House.
 When we got back we had breakfast, then headed down to a Tree Walk place - I think it was called "Walking among Giants". I found my camera just as we got out of the car.
 Here are some pictures of the walk:

 1. I was like "Don't look down, don't look down...!"

 2.  I looked down again!

 3. Wow, I reached the highest point!


 I'm really scared of heights, so I was terrified being that high up in the air. I kept stopping, starting, walking as fast as I could, getting dizzy, and freaking out in general. :P So you can bet that I was really happy when I got to the end of the Tree Top Walk, with both my feet firmly planted on the ground.

 4. The hollowed out base of one of the Tingle trees - I was now off the Tree Top Walk and walking in the "Ancient Empire" walk thing - it meant I could still walk among the trees, but with my feet on the ground.

 5. A fairly dead tree, I should think - and it looks rather like Sauron's tower from Lord of the Rings in this picture.

 6. Rather unusual mushrooms... :P

 7. One of the fallen down trees.

8. A very big tree... :P


Well, we went home, and began making a Ginger bread house. It was very yummy and didn't last long...



We sat up late, as it was New Year's eve, and I think it was 1:30 AM by the time we all got to bed.

 The next day we watched a movie, then went down to the beach. My parents had a chat to someone from Adelaide, then we drove to another part of the Tingle forest and walked through it.
 12. I had to lie down on the ground to take a photo of this tree... :P

 13. Look, it's the tree again!

 14. Aww, some pretty flowers... :)

 15. Another really cool tree. I love the way it curls!

16. I must send this to Steven Spielberg... :P

After that we headed down to Circular Pool. It was really nice there - peaceful, quiet and relaxing.







After that we went to an ice creamery and had ice cream. It was very yummy - better than normal ice cream! :D


Well, we were all very exhausted, as you could imagine. When we got back I collapsed on one of the couches and lay there. But I recovered a bit and we went fishing again. I nearly caught a fish, which was really exciting!

 We went fishing again on the third (and last) day of our New Years Holiday, and I finally caught a fish. :P I was sitting on the Pier, wondering if I'd ever get a fish, when the fishing rod started getting tugs and the line began moving around in circles. xD When the fish was finally out of the water I was half freaked out and half fascinated. :P Here I am, with the fish being held in front of me (I didn't want to hold the fish):


 The fish was very yummy - it was filleted by Drew and then cooked few minutes later in garlic butter.

 After eating the fish we started driving back home. It was a long, but good, drive, and we stopped off along the way - and, unlike the trip to the Holiday House, I actually got out and stretched my legs.

Well, that was pretty much the entire holiday - and that wasn't even half of all the photos I took... :P

 I have to go now!

 Sparkles and Sunshine!

Big Hero 6

Hey all! :D

I'm back from my holiday! :D I have a post written up about what I did on the Holiday, but I'm waiting for Mum and Dad to come back before I post it up.

 So, what's this post about? Yeah, that's right... Big Hero 6. :P

 I saw Big Hero 6 a couple of weeks ago, and I am now officially obsessed! Here is some info on who I like:

 Favourite Male Character(s): Tadashi and Hiro
 Favourite Female Character(s): Gogo
 Favourite Robot(s): Baymax!

 I can't think of anything else to type up for that... xD

 I made up my own Big Hero 6 character, who'll be one of the main characters in my Big Hero 6 fan fiction. Her name is Crystal, but everyone calls her Flame because of her hair and her temper, and she's 15. Here she is:





I also had a go editing a picture of Hiro - it was really bad, so I'm not posting it up. xD

 I really like Immortals (by Fall Out Boy) from Big Hero 6. It's such a cool song! My favourite line(s) is... "They say we are what we are, but we don't have to be. I'm bad behavior but I do it in the best way." Here's the full song:



And here are some Big Hero 6 photos and gifs I found on the Internet:







Aaaah, Tadashi... why did you have to die!?!?! That was the most emotional scene in the whole movie. ;_;

 Weeeeeell, I'd better go go now, We're going to watch The LEGO Movie and have dinner.

 Adventures and Mysteries!
