SOL 30th

Wrap your arms three times and bring your legs a little closer together. I try to, but they are held fast about half a foot away from each other. Thea, if you don't bring your legs closer, you will not be able to complete the first turn, I tell myself. So I pull on the silks around my arms to loosen the fabric around my legs. Lean back. You won't fall. You've done this like 50 times before. I lean back. The fabric catches me and flops me around the other way. Put your arms out to catch yourself. I do, and stop mid-turn. The "flip-flop" is done. Good. I am tired. 

SOL 29th

He's black.
He has sharp teeth.
He destroys everything in its path.
He has one red eye.
He is the most terrifying thing you could ever imagine.
And his name is Mickey the Ripper... Upper of Stuffed Animals!

Flee for your lives! He will destroy you with his tongue!!!! 

SOL 28th - my interpretation/additions to Fire Meet Gasoline by Sia

It's dangerous

To fall in love, but I

Wanna burn with you tonight.

So we shall both suffocate and die.

There's two of us.

Which would actually be

'There ARE two of us.'

There is two of us

Is not grammatically correct.

Is it, Kam?

So come on I'll 

Take you on, take you on I

Ache for love, ache for us WHY

Don't

Don't you come a little closer.

So come on now

Strike the match strike the match now,

We're a perfect match

Perfect somehow.

We were made for one another,

Come a little closerrrrrrrr....

Fire that came from me,

Fire meet gasoline

Fire meet gasoline

I'm burning alive.

I can barely breath

Since I'm burning alive.

So technically I can't breath

Because I've already suffocated.  

Fire meet gasoline

Fire meet gasoline! 
I got on a knee
When you came back to me
Because my other leg had been burnt off
Fire meet gasoliiiiiiine!

Burn with MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

MWAHAHAHAHA,

MWAHAHAHAHA

MWAHAHAHA

MWAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!

SOL 27th

 The SOL challenge is almost over!!!! Congrats to everyone who posted every day so far! IT SHALL BE WORTH IT! Totoro is happy too! It was hard to think of ideas for posts (it was hard to think of this one) but I did it!... even if some of the posts are boring and random. And some of them are just cute images or gifs that explain everything better than words. For example, the happy clover one on St. Patrick's day and the Pusheen one for two days ago. So, just... YAY!

SOL 24th/book blog

Crushed & Deadly...

Hint: Someone (almost) gets crushed, and someone dies.

Here is a GIF to make anyone reading this happy.

And in case you have watched this GIF and are not happy, then leave and go read someone else's blog.

SOL 21st

     "Thea, come look at this." My mom is standing across the toy store, looking at something in a little jar. I walk over, looking at all the stuffed animals and jigsaw puzzles on shelves. My younger sister is debating over whether to get her friend a plastic unicorn or a plastic horse for her birthday. That's the reason we are at the store in the first place.
     When I get close enough, I see some little plastic dogs on pens.
     "So?" I ask. What's so great about these dogs?
     My mom squeezes one of the little grey dogs. A tiny pink tongue darts out of its mouth and rests again with just the tip poking out. "Doesn't this remind you of someone?" she asks.
    It does. My year-old Cocker puppy, Mickey, likes to leave his tongue a little bit outside of his mouth, too. We usually poke it back in, but it looks funny, and just like this pen.
    "I AM getting that," I declare, and choose the pen with the dog that looks most like Mickey.

Don't they look alike??

 

SOL 20th

About a year ago, my grandpa took me and my sister on a behind-the-scenes tour of the San Francisco Zoo (he has a friend who works there and got us in for free). I, predictably, wanted to go see the lemurs first. I looked into the giant area filled with ring-tailed lemurs. Something didn't seem right. One of the lemurs... was pink! I showed my sister and my grandpa the pink lemur. My grandpa thought we should tell someone who worked at the park about the pink lemur. We asked a worker about it, and she pointed out the pink light above the lemur that was making its fur look pink! I personally would have liked it better if the lemur were really pink.

SOL 19

Let us all have a moment of silence to appreciate Google's dancing clover gif..
And yes this is my entire slice for today but it's worth it for little dancing clovers!!

ALL HAIL THE CLOVERS

SOL 18th

My old computer died. First the clock wasn't moving the time forward. It would just reset from whatever time and date I set it on every time I turned on the computer. Then the enter key broke. Then the mouse stopped working. When I plugged in a corded mouse, I realized the keyboard wasn't working either. It was backlit, and the lights under the keys turned off. It was very sad. So I went to Office Depot and bought this computer I am writing on right now with the new little touchscreen stylus.

 RIP old computer.                                                                         NEW COMPUTER!

SOL 17th/book blog

The title of this book is Burned.

The main characters literally do get burned.

The ship that they are on explodes.

Many people die.

READ TO FIND OUT MORE!!!!!!!

SOL 16th

Would anyone like some hunger?
I have a lot..
If you're all full and happy, I will give you some hunger.
So you can be like me.




                                                                                       
                                           
                                                                           

SOL 15th

"It's raining outside," they say.

No it's not.

"There's a tornado outside your window," they say.

No there's not.

"It's plain and dull and boring everywhere," they say.

And they are right.

SOL 13th

I'm ending my poll...
It's a very sad day today...
So sad that I am putting this in a different font...

The poll was "Have you eaten a fish this month?"

The last words of the dying poll say...

2 people voted for "Yes."

6 people voted for "No."

3 people voted for "Only the head."

14 people voted for "I'm a dinosaur."

Quite a lot of people are dinosaurs these days.

I wonder what kind of dinosaur everyone is.
It's funny, because I never see any dinosaurs around Logan.
Only kids.
Maybe they're dinosaurs in disguise.
I don't know.

SOL 12th

Rubber cement is fun. You can glop it on and it's all wet and weird. And then when you stick the paper onto whatever it's supposed to be on, the rubber cement dries and gets... well, rubbery. And then when you rub off any excess, it turns into little weird squishy clumps of rubber cement. And then you can squish it and it's fun.

SOL 9th

     "Wake up! Daisy, Daisy, go wake Thea up! Go jump on her feet! Good girl!" My mom barges into my room and startles me out of a dream. My dogs, Mickey and Daisy, hop up onto my bed and clomp around. I close my eyes again and pretend to sleep.
     "Come on, you have to get up. It's 7:40!" "UNNGGGGHHHHH," I say.
     My mom gives up and leaves, bringing Daisy with her. As Daisy leaves, Mickey (who has been peeking into the rat cage on my desk) latches onto Daisy's ear and hangs on like a little furry leech. They both run out of the room.
     I close my eyes again for a moment, open them, and suddenly it's 7:50 and my mom is already making breakfast. I fall out of bed unwillingly, get dressed, and sit at the table with my hair barely untangled. I am not hungry right now, just tired. Bleh. Daylight Savings sucks.

Stunning/SOL 10th

The chase continues.... A is always one step ahead of everything. And A just killed another person (accidentally). The Pretty Little Liars wonder who A was actually aiming for.


DUN DUN DUUUUUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SOL 8th

My puppy found a carrot. He put his front paws up on the counter in my kitchen. There was a bag of carrots which he grabbed while he jumped down. I yelled at him to come back and drop the carrots, but he took off downstairs. His little puppy nails skittered across the wood floor and then the sound disappeared when he made it to the carpet. Down the stairs he galumphed. He stopped in the library-ish room at the foot of the stairs, plopped down, and ripped open the bag with his teeth. A carrot tumbled out. My puppy then proceeded to gnaw on the orange part. He got a chunk in his mouth and started chomping away while holding the plastic bag in between his front paws. Dogs are messy eaters. He spewed little orange bits everywhere while I watched. I let him eat the carrot because carrots are good for dogs.

SOL 7th

I found a rubber band. It is from a Rainbow Loom or Crazy Loom or whatever those rubber-band-bracelet-kit-things are. This is a very fun rubber band. It is pink and has little lines on it whenever I tilt it into the light. It can stretch about four inches. You can tell I'm bored right now because I'm writing about stretching a rubber band.

<-- Look!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SOL 6th

Welcome to my blog. Here is (Will) SOL(ace) #6. Anyone who reads the correct book will get that reference.^


"Last one. Whoever guesses the date and month of my birthday added up will win the mysterious card," says the announcer. I raise my hand. "18," I guess. "Correct! January 17th!" says the announcer. He sticks a card under my seat...


I have been waiting here for 5 hours. People are slowly filling in the empty seats at the far back of the book store. Finally, Veronica Roth and Margaret Stohl enter! Veronica Roth wrote the Divergent series, and Margaret Stohl wrote the Icons series and cowrote Beautiful Creatures. They give their little talks about their books, answering questions and taking selfies with random people from the audience. Anyone who bought a waver (I did) goes up to the front and gets a signed book.

The talk is finally over. The announcer tells everyone to look under their seats (besides the people who won them in the contests at the beginning, 10 were hidden under random seats). The people with cards un-tape them, and we go into a separate room at the back. Veronica Roth and Margaret Stohl are waiting back there! We get to take selfies with them and they personally sign our books. Veronica Roth signed mine "Thea- be brave" and Margaret Stohl signed mine "Happy first book party, Thea!"

My friend (who moved to L.A.) was texting me during this, so I bought another book and had Veronica Roth sign it for her. I mailed the book and it was my friend's early birthday present. Now we can brag to people happily ever after.

SOL 5th

I bring the silks on the right side of my body and hold on tightly. I push off with my legs and am now hanging upside-down. I let go of the silk with one hand and hook my right leg over, then let go with the other hand. My leg is the only thing keeping me from falling ten feet. I reach around to get the tails of the silk. I bring them up and around the leg that is not hooked on the poles. Now as long as I don't let go of the tails in my hand, I am safe to unhook my leg. I bring the silk around my back and wrap it once around my stomach. Hooking the arch of my foot on the poles, I get a good grip on the silk in my hand. I unhook my foot and I spiral down, stopping suddenly when the silk catches around my leg. I bend my back out and point my toes. This is part one. I sit up, get the tails in my hands (I cannot let go of them or I will fall), and wrap the fabric around my left leg four times. I can do four cartwheels. I switch the tails to my left hand, grab the poles with my right, and lean out into a starfish-ish shape. I let go with my right hand, lean left, and am sent spiraling around 360 degrees, catching myself by grabbing the poles again. I am still ten feet above the floor, holding the silks keeping me up with one hand. I have been doing this for three years, but it's still terrifying sometimes. This is aerial.

This is me not doing the move I wrote about

SOL 4th

They sit on my shoulders. They can barely stay on from all the fat jiggling around on their backs. It's funny, too, how fat they are, since they go on their wheel all night. Websites say that Rosco and Timmy are supposed to have great balance. They used to when they weren't fat. If I stuck my arm in the cage, they would scramble up onto my shoulder and make their little happy noises. Rosco tried to come up my arm and fell off (I caught him in my skirt). They still make their little cooing noises when I pick them up. I'm their favorite human.

Now they are off my shoulders, and they sit in their cage next to my desk giving themselves baths. They are as clean as cats. I am poking my finger in between the bars. They see it, climb through the bedding in the cage to the wall, and lick my finger. They never, ever bite. They don't even chew clothing, and very rarely dangly earrings. I have trained them not to, but sometimes they can't resist. Their little tongues go across my finger. It's so cute. I don't know any other rats who lick. 

Twisted & Ruthless/SOL 3rd

     Did Ali die in the fire?
     Her body was never found...

     What did they do in Jamaica last spring?
     Who is the body that washed up if it isn't Ali?

     Emily keeps seeing blonde hair in the woods behind her house.

     They killed an innocent girl.

     A knows everything. And is prepared to use it against them.

SOL 2nd

I think I have the logo thing figured out now. Anyway, this SOL will be called...

Music I am Listening to While Writing This

     "Secret" is a kind of creepy song. I heard it at my aerial show when someone did a performance to it, and then I recognized it from the Pretty Little Liars TV show theme song. I'm listening to it right now. Even though it's creepy, I downloaded it on iTunes because it sounds cool.

     Oh no, next on my playlist is "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri. This is a boring song. I shall skip it for now.

     Now it's "Summertime Sadness." Why are all these boring songs coming up?? Oh yeah, because this is the playlist I literally titled "Boring songs." That explains everything. I shall change it to a new playlist.

     I changed the playlist to "Good songs" so I am listening to "Dressed in Black" by Sia. This is good. I like it. I found this song by going on Sia Radio on the Pandora app and this song came up first. I liked it, so I downloaded it.

     Goodbye, this is the end.

SOL 1st

Yay!! It's working! The logo was being stupid and didn't let me type anything and underlined everything and then deleted everything so I had to start over. This is probably my fourth try to write SOL #1 because of the STUPID LOGO. *nudge nudge logo it's your fault* Oh my, that's weird... It now is typing in white for some reason.. I'm going to switch it back to black hold on because I can't see anything that I'm typing.Good it's back to typing in black. I hope it shows up on my blog when I publish this because I can only read the part in white when I highlight it. I could just switch it to black, but I want to see how it looks. From the "compose" screen, I can't see anything because it's on a white background. I think this will be my Slice now because I have a lot written now.
