ASOUE ASOUE AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!

ACCCCCCCK!
I AMMMMFREAKINGFREAKING CONFUSED!
AND HAPPY
AND SAD!
I AM MOSTLY CONFUSED THOUGH!
BUT I AM SADDER THAN I AM CONFUSED!

Let me take a deep breath...
huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh

Okay. Let me start over. I have just finished reading the most incredibly fabulously amazing series ever. It has kicked Les Miserables off of my top 5 book list. Bye bye!!!!

And if you have read it, you'd agree. I don't understand how anyone could pick up these books and put them back down.

OOOOHHHMYYYGODDD!
Okay, calm down, calm down...
BUT I CAN'T!!!
I AM EXPERIENCING MORAL TURMOIL!!!

Okay.
I wish I had a nerd brother!!! OH WHY IS LIFE SO HARD??!!?!?!?!?!? OIAEUBDOIEVFOUVEOFUVEFUEVBOUHVBFOUIABVEOUFAVUEFV
These books just make me want to tie my hair up in a ribbon.
Actually, they make me want to get glasses because I already read a lot.

HERE IS A LIST OF QUESTIONS I THINK I KNOW THE ANSWER TO BUT WERE NEVER CONFIRMED AND LEFT ME WONDERING:
  1. So the guy in the picture on the 13th page of the file WAS actually Lemony Snicket?
  2. Olaf is indeed an orphan and his parents were killed by the Baudelaire's parents...?
  3. So how old is Olaf?!!?
  4. So the two J.S that people in the Hotel Denouncement were actually Justice Strauss and Jerome Squalor?
  5. There was no one else hiding in the basement of the hotel sending out messages who also happened to have the initials J.S?
  6. Why did Olaf do that tonsil-hockey to Kit just before she died? I mean, I knew they knew each other, but that just left me grossed out and confused.
  7. WHAT IS THE UNKNOWN AND WHY DID QUIGLEY ISADORA DUNCAN AND FIONA NOT GET ONTO THE RAFT WITH KIT!?!? It would have been really cool to see what Fiona and Isadora did. HAHAHA!
  8. Why do fictional characters always have more interesting lives than I do?
  9. How did the Baudelaires know how to deliver a child...? Just curious... So many things could have gone wrong.
  10. WILL VIOLET FIND QUIGLEY AGAIN?! OR EVEN DUNCAN?! I'M SURE EVERYONE WANTS TO KNOW THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After I finished my book, I went upstairs and laid on my bed and thought. The series REALLY is thought provoking. It makes you attempt to comprehend what happens too.

I had to go to a show but when I came back I laid down to go to sleep and I cried for a bit. I don't know why. It seemed like the right thing to do. After 13 books you get acquainted quite well with the characters.

I love how we saw Sunny grow. She started off only knowing how to say "Reedank" and now she talks, walks, and cooks.

I love how we saw Violet mature. Not like physically, but if she was a real person the emotional struggle she went through and defeated is awe-defying. She escaped being married to some guy when she was 14 by using her mind and she saved their lives countless times.

I love how...well, I just love Klaus. I can TOTALLY relate to his character aside from the fact that I'm not a boy (DARN!) and I don't have an older sister. And I don't really have some crazy guy stalking my for my fortune that doesn't exist...actually, I'm hardly like him!!! But I love reading and...yeah. What a lame opposing statement. But I have nerd glasses. So BLTEam power!!! I'm so glad we bought those.

Anyways, I have seen my share of heartbreaking moments, ("I just remembered. It's my 13th birthday. I'm 13 today. I don't want to sound spoiled, but I hoped I'd spend it somewhere else besides this jail cell." and "'When you think of me, think of a food you like very much.' And he raised a hand to his face like he'd been slapped. 'She...left...she's gone!'") and I have cried along with the Baudelaires and I am too depressed that the series is over!

I have been digging into the fanfiction for ASoUE and I have found this GREAT author called MissVioletBaudelaire14 and her stories are hilarious. Unfortunately she's been inactive for a while. I hope she comes back. My favorite one is where the Baudelaires have gone back to land and they live in a mansion and the Quagmires live next door but neither of them know it. And they throw an alarm clock out their window and it hits Klaus on the head and Violet is screaming at everyone because she's on her monthly (again, wish I was a boy!) and Sunny does this really cute thing where she comes up and Violet is in the bathroom puking while an ambulance is coming to pick Klaus up because he has a huge bump on the head from where the alarm clock hit him and Sunny thinks about what she can do to make Klaus feel better so she remembers that when she was little people used to kiss where she got hurt so she goes and kisses Klaus' head bump and she goes "I kiss it and make it better" and I think that's just SSSSSSOOOOOOO CUTE!!!!! And Violet comes back when the ambulance gets there and screams to the Quagmires "Don't bother coming to the hospital you hit Klaus' widdle head" and Klaus freaks out because he's the only one who hasn't found out the Quagmires are living next door yet because he's on the floor with his head bump and he's like "Don't use the baby voice to talk about me to the neighbors to make small talk!" So when the three siblings get in the ambulance Klaus asks who the neighbors were and Violet told him they were the Quagmires and Klaus freaks out and is like "I can't face Isadora again! You talked about me in baby talk!" HAHAHA! I love that.

That is the page for the awesome writer person and I suggest you read all of her stories. There are incidents with peppermint. ;)
And I just found this and I couldn't help but copy paste because I still hate Fiona.


"Fiona Widdershins was a very volatile girl, which here means she was liable to display rapid changes of emotion, usually for the worst.
Klaus Baudelaire had tried his best to forget her, but despite their escape of the Queequeg, and despite the fire they had helped set at Hotel Denoument and despite the fact that Olaf was now dead, he could not bring himself to forget the girl with the triangle glasses and the obsession with mushrooms.
He was better off not remembering her, after all, what had she done but leave him behind like everyone else? The only people he could depend on were his sisters, they were the only ones who cared that he was alive. Fiona had done nothing but shatter his heart, break it more so than it had already been. He had mourned the loss of his parents, the loss of many people he had learned to love, from Uncle Monty to Kit Snicket to the only friends he and his sisters had- the Quagmires.
And now he mourned the loss of his first love, a mycologist with triangle glasses.
Fiona Widdershins had only kissed him once. One time only. It had been more like a slap. It still stung to remember the moment when she'd chosen to create another schism- a schism in Klaus's heart that was tearing him in two. He couldn't help but love her for who she was, but hate her for choosing to do what she had done.
"How could someone so wonderful do something so horrible?"
The very words he'd told his sisters in shock often reeled over and over in his head until he couldn't take it anymore. He didn't know how or why, but he loved Fiona and it hurt to see her allied with Olaf and his henchmen, no matter what the cause or why the change of mind.
He had forgiven Fiona, Klaus could never hold ill feelings towards someone he loved for so long. After all Kit had told him that Fiona had been desperate to reach him, and that she wanted him to forgive her. But truth came to truth, and the fact was she had still betrayed him.
A few tears fell down Klaus's cheeks. Why was he so focused on helping VFD do good in the world, when nothing in his world seemed to be going right? Klaus didn't mean to sound like a snob, but he hadn't expected his thirteenth birthday would be in a jail cell, he hadn't expected his first kiss to be a kiss reminiscent to Judas's kiss of betrayal, and he hadn't expected to be isolated from the world on an island away from civilization.
Klaus brushed away the tears and stared off into the night sky. His sisters were already asleep. They knew he was upset about Fiona, but no even Violet knew how much it truly tormented him.
Fiona Widdershins tormented him very very much,which here means, Klaus, the middle Baudelaire child, had yet another restless night, dreaming of the girl with the curly black hair and triangle glasses."




I didn't realize this was a sad occasion.

Hold on...

So I have been told multiple times that the name game won't load it's pictures!!! That really sucks.

The name game!

Hello messieurs and madames! Well actually, the quatre mademoiselles who would be reading this. I don't have a very big audience.
J'aime le francais! Je take la classe again and its going tres bien although je don't know that many words yet. But me gusta mucho!
Wait no. That's Spanish. Uhhhhh...
TO MANY LANGUAGES!
Wo soy tres confused...
Haha I am double bilingual! So that's four languages...WOW.
I HATE THINGS THAT ARE FEMININE AND MASCULINE! SEXIST MUCH?!!?!?
Anyways, I was trying to draw this guy I have a crush on. AND YES he's a book character because I have no real man in my life. SOB!
I HATE YOU FIONA! Oh, not you, if your name happens to be Fiona. I was talking to that stupid submarine nerd girl auhfbufbvuyasbvgouyas I'M BETTER FOR YOU!!!!!!!!

Ahem. I had coffee earlier.
So I wanted to draw some people who I think look alike and then have you guess at who they were. As I started to draw my first boy, I ran into a million problems already. I'll just list a few of them.
  1. Why aren't his glasses the same size on both eyes?
  2. Why aren't his eyes looking the same way?
  3. Why is his face too skinny?
  4. Why do his lips look to feminine?
  5. How is it possible I drew his hair THAT bad?
  6. Why don't his clothes look right?
  7. Why is his nose so big?
  8. Why isn't he looking at his book?!
  9. Why is your hair SO HARD?!!?!?!
  10. Why can't you look more like the picture on the cover?!!?!?
  11. How come when I trace your picture on the cover and try to copy it it STILL looks terrible?!!
  12. I'm so sorry I have disgraced your beautiful nerd face. *sob*
  13. Why am I such a failure at drawing book characters who don't really have a proper picture?????
  14. WHY DO YOU NOT WEAR GLASSES IN THE MOVIE?!!?!?!??!
  15. Why do you have to be so tempting to draw?
So you see, those are just a few of the problems I have encountered.
So I thought I'd just post pictures of them here that are professional and have you guess at who they were.
If you get all or some of them correct, you get a prize?
...
I don't really have a prize for you.
But it's fun!
SO LET IT COMMENCE!!

From the mind of...

Our Dear Little Jehan On Thoughts Of Revolution, Poetry, And Clouds

Have you ever stopped to look at the clouds? They are more important than we think, sometimes. I must confess one of my guilty pleasures is to lie back on the field and stare up at them. I often lose track of time and end up returning home when it is nearly dusk. They look like things and are simply facinating.
Clouds are like poetry. Each work is unique and takes time to form to be brilliant. They can be shaped, but sometimes they should not be tampered with. That is one of the reasons I love being a poet. I let my emotions flow, but they can be hidden sometimes. That is part of my gentle spirit.
I play the flute. Did you know that? Many people overlook the little things I do for the big picture, but that's alright with me. I am a small part of the big picture. Even my friends forget about my sometimes, but I always end up forgiving them, because they always end up being sorry about it. It's not their fault. I am not the most assertive nor memorable member of our group. I could stay mad at them, but it's not in my nature.
However, people think that because I am the 'gentle one,' as some people put it, I have smaller beliefs than others in the revolution. This is not true. I assure you I am quite firm about my beliefs, and while I may get slightly flustered when asked, I will defend them. I have the same amount of determination as the others, but I just do not go around showing it every second.
The one thing, and the one thing only that I cannot deal with is the outcome of lives involving our revolution. I know as well as any that it will harm others. Women and children will get sucked into our revolution unwillingly, and our revolution will likely lead to our deaths. It is not that I mind, though. It is the death of others. They seem to want to hide it from me, but I know we will end up fighting. Causing the death of others. I... I cannot bring myself to do that, but I know I will anyways. It's a sin. An atrocity. As vile as our enemy may be, no one deserves that fate. They do not think that way and they would not hesitate to end my life, but there you have it. My internal conflict.
And what can I do about it? I cannot do anything. Who do I go to? Enjolras would shame me if he knew. Combeferre would be understandably worried. Most of the other Amis would laugh or shrug it off. So here I am. I can lock myself up in my world of poetry and clouds, but I know it will not last. It is the best I can do.

From the mind of...

I am starting a "segment." I used to have a blog called Speeches before my time.  It didn't work out, but my plan was to write speeches that seem like they came from the 18 somethings so if you need to tell someone something you could do that in a really cool way. I thought, since I would still love to do that, I'd do it on here.
The theme for these will be "From the mind of...". You know how some people have sheets of paper that say "From the desk of" and then their name? I'm going to do that. And if you don't know who I'm talking about, you should go do some research. Or leave a comment and I'll elaborate. Enjoy and leave suggestions!
From the mind of...
Combeferre
Republic? That is what we are all striving for in our minds, to be self-governing. To have a life of justice where one may do what he pleases when he pleases without violating the monarch's rule. Do I think humankind can achieve this? Yes. Do I think we can achieve it? ...Perhaps not. I daren't say anything to our fearless leader, for he should surely think I have committed treason, but we all know this will not end well. 
Firstly, we lack the strength in arms and men. We have ten in numbers. That is not enough against all of the national guard they throw at us.
Secondly, though I would not like to admit such a thing, I am worried about Enjolras. For him, the circles under his eyes and the constant flow of books under his arm are normal. Lately, the circles have been darker, and the books more and more. He has been forced to carry a bookbag with him. How will our leader lead if he is too busy to keep up his health? I am not the only one who thinks so, Joly agrees with me. Then again, it is Joly...
We are in need of a fine muse also. They seem to believe fighting for a republic for Patria is enough of an inspiration, but I as a philosopher know that at some moments some may think that the muse of life is more important.
Am I to say something about all this? No. For I think it is better to die fighting to help the uprising of the people than to discourage the whole plan and leave us extinct of hope.

Lists of 10

Seeing as I'd enjoy living in about any other century, I thought I'd make a couple lists. That way, if somehow scientists invent time travel, I'll know who I'm going to visit first. Or if they invent ways to jump into stories, I'll know who to visit first. Leave me a list of your own in the comments!

Top 10 important people from history I'd like to visit:
  1. Ben Franklin- he's a personal idol of mine, and I'd also like to ask him why on earth he proposed DST!
  2.  Michelangelo- to possibly bring some happiness into his life and encourage him not to be such a loner.
  3. JFK- so I can tell him to put the bulletproof windows on his car.
  4. Adolf Hitler- to find out what in the world could have made him so angry in the first place.
  5. Homer- because his name is cool and I would ask him about the Greek gods.
  6. John Adams- because he seems really cool. In the 1776 movie he has blue hair! And he and Ben were the only ones pushing for the Declaration.
  7. Bill Clinton- to tell him to be careful of what he does in the White House...
  8. Abraham Lincoln- to tell him to avoid Ford's theatre.
  9. Anne Bonny and Mary Read- because...I don't know. But the two of them are really cool. I mean, who wouldn't want to dress like a man and join a pirate crew?
  10. Walt Disney- with the kind of things Disney is supporting today, like John Carter, I'd want to see if he'd approve.
Top 5 dead authors I'd like to meet:
  1. Victor Hugo- to tell him how brilliant he is. And how his story because possibly the most popular musical of all time. And to console him since most of his children died before he did.
  2. Will Shakespeare- to find out how he got his inspiration for his tragedies.
  3. Edgar Allan Poe- to ask him about his poetry and find out what happened when he disappeared for three days.
  4. Gaston Leroux- no reason. Or is there...well, he wrote mysteries! That's cool...
  5. Thomas Paine- he was such a good motivator.
Top 10 fictional book characters I'd like to meet:
  1. Enjolras- just because.
  2. Harry Potter- to ask him why he seems to get into trouble every single year.
  3. Jehan- to get tips on poetry.
  4. Erik Destler- to make him feel better about himself. Inner beauty...
  5. Oliver Nocturne- because he is the protagonist of the one cool vampire novel series. And I'd really like to meet him because he sounds kind of like me.
  6. Percy Jackson- so I can find out if one of my parents is really a Greek god in disguise. We could be buddies.
  7. Combeferre- because Combeferre is awesome. And intelligent.
  8. Encyclopedia Brown- if I ever want to get into detective skills I should talk to him. With a name like that, he's got to be smart. Because no one ever calls him Leroy.
  9. Hermione- to ask her why she chose Ron over Harry. Honestly, who would?
  10. Courfeyrac- because we ALL love Courfeyrac.
Top 10 fictional cartoon/movie characters I'd like to meet:
  1. Lisa Simpson- we can talk about how it is to be misunderstood and other stuff. I can actually imagine myself sitting in a coffee shop with someone with her personality.
  2. Bart Simpson- because I need to know how to pull pranks with childish innocence. He can also teach me how to get away with stuff!
  3. Phineas- to find out what happened to him. Normal kids can't do what he does.
  4. Peter Parker/Spiderman- to find out which spider development institute he got bitten at. What? This isn't some plot for me to get bitten!
  5. Voldemort- although he's more of a book character, I'd like to ask him how he became bald.
  6. Darth Vader- because I need light saber-wielding lessons. Also he's one of the coolest bad guys ever. And I need to tell him that Padme didn't die because of him. Technically.
  7. Leia- to tell her to not kiss her brother. Even if it is to make Han jealous.
  8. Senator Palpatine- to kill him before he can cause anymore harm.
  9. Bruce Banner- to help him with anger management.
  10. Hawkeye- so he can teach me archery.
Let me know your favorites!
