Three hours later...

Bethany here:

Well, I haven't been on in a while so you know what that means... A possible, very long blog for you to read, and me to write.

If you can't remember, the last time I didn't blog for a while it ended up being me writing for 1 1/2 hrs.

And, three hours later, I still haven't done anything on this post, and I'm about to be booted off the computer.

So, I hope that you all had a good holiday and you should check out the following youtube people/channels.

Punishments!!!

Betho! What are you thinking?!! Now we're going to have to go though with this!!! And, NO!!! We should not punish Lily!!! Lily has been posting!!! And when I wasn't posting, it was because I had nothing interesting to say!!!
Anyway, now that we've gotten that out of the way, who is extremely excited to see Harry Potter 7 with her boyfriend? Me of course!!! As long as I can find out the show times...
Also, we have an annoying art presentation (I hate presentations of any kind) thing, that is just that. Annoying.
Anyhow, that's pretty much my life right now.

P.S. I forgot that this weekend I'm going to see Wicked with a bunch of friends!!! Yay!!!

Punishments?

I am so horrible at this!

So, the idea of this blog was so that Lily and I would be writing about our days, and, well, just us. And I am not doing so well.

I sort of got the inspiration of this from the vlogbrothers and so I jokingly asked my friends if they thought that we should be punished if we failed to blog. They seriously agreed.

So I guess for everyday that I didn't have an excuse (and that's like, 9 days of my blogging) I must be punished.

And if my math is correct, I haven't been blogging 3x a week. With 3 weeks excluded, and there having been 14 weeks - 3 =11
3 x 12 = 33

That's 33 punishments. Wow. Or maybe we could, you know, condense them into say, 6 or 3?

So the reason I am excused from 2 weeks is because I moved, and we didn't have Internet or a computer!
And they don't let you on the school computers unless you're doing school work. >:(

Also, someone I knew died and I needed a few days to grieve, so I took that Wednesday off (as I had found out on a Tuesday). Then the last reason is Darien Lake, but you already knew about that.

But, basically, I am doomed. So, friends of mine (and Lily) will you punish me? And with what? [Also, should we punish Lily too?]

This is mostly a weird find out how you feel about these.

Also, the punishments would have to be a little embarrassing, but, nothing too serious...

So, on this or the Facebook companion, or email at dumbledoresarmy_deatheaters@yahoo.ca tell me what you think.

(and just so you know, I did figure how many punishments Lily would get. 30)
(ps, I sortof like this new computer...)

Big News

I have very, very big news. I have a boyfriend!!! And I am very excited!!! I won't even try to describe it; it's all very new and ya... I'm not going to give too much away right now.

FIRST VIDEO BLOG IS UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES, THAT'S RIGHT! ME AND LILY (LILY AND I) DID A VIDEO BLOG LAST WEEK AND I FINALLY GOT IT WORKING. I just realized that writing with Caps Lock on is really hard because I have to keep going back and not pressing shift when I put 'I'. That didn't make sense but it does, really. Just re-read what I said....
So, here's the video.
Hopefully....

The Hobbit

Wow, it's been  a long time!!!
Okay, I just thought you should all know that The Hobbit is finally being made!!! YAY!!!!!!!!! I heard it a couple of days ago on the radio. Seeing as it is an AWESOME book (I read it this summer), I can't wait; it'll probably take forever! Soooooooooo excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm pretty sure that's due to technical difficulties, but it might be neglegence, Bethany has failed to put up our video (it is so random, you've been warned). I don't know why, but I will find out soon!
I don't really have anything else to say...so ya...

Very Busy

Sorry peoples, I haven't been posting lately cause I've been so busy. I'm on my schools basketball team which takes up alot of my time and dance has started again so that takes up the nights I don't have b-ball, so ya...this is the first time I've been on the computer all week. I don't really have anything else to talk about except that Merlin is back on TV (Yay!!!).

See y'all!!!

Wow....

I'm really glad to see that it's not just me that's really bad at posting these.... Lily did post one last week though and I didn't do any.
So, I am just doing a quick note.  I just think that I'll show you a acceptance form for this group that I've started. It's really cool. It's a Harry Potter Related thing, but you should know about it already if you know me personally.
If you know where to go, be sure to e-mail Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort's joint e-mail account: dumbledoresarmy_deatheaters@yahoo.com

First Day

It was my first day of high school today, and let's just say it was the most insane day of my life, but most of all I just miss my old friends. I don't even really want to talk about it because then I have to think about how I'm going to survive tomorrow.
Anyway, I just found out about this kool writing contest called 3-Day Novels from a friend on Facebook that they do every Labour Day weekend. You have that weekend and that weekend alone to write a novel, which is...on the brink of insane, but I might do it next year. It will take some serious practice. The thing is that you can't have an idea ahead of time (which of course I already do). I'm also not a very fast typer (actually I never learned how to type) which doesn't help. And you have to double space, which I hate cause in books they only have one space; that's going to be a hassel. If I stick to my plan of working on my book (yes, I write) 15 min. each day (starting tomorrow) that should help, and if I also do little short works like...every other weekend and on holidays it would help. Anyhow, if you're interested, there is a link in our link box.
Song: Again, not really much of anything, more like bits and pieces of stuff.
Quote: Pitiful creature of darkness, what kind of life have you known? God give me courage to show you, you are not alone. - Christine, Phantom of the Opera

Oh, and another thing my family and I are doing is watching all the Battlestar Galactica episodes, cause my dad loved them and he owns them...so ya. They are really great, but they're not for everybody my age (some could not handle the maturity levels). Anyway, I like'em.
I guess that's all for now.
Farewell!!!
