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.



     TBR: Stunning
              Burned
              Crushed
             Deadly
             Toxic
             Vicious 

   

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.
