whatwelikeaboutpurpleribbons — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 22:58:48 +0000

Hello? Is anybody out there? Because no one is reading this blog. Not that I have had any new posts lately…just no one has been reading any of my old ones.

Anyways…Right now I’m extremely bored. And i have an English poem to write. So, I’m off. Bye.

Merry Christmas

So..I don’t think anyone has been reading this blog of mine (if you do- comment! I would be so happy). But, that doesn’t really matter because I wanted to wish everyone and anyone a Merry Christmas today!

Tacos, Domino’s, Bad Romance

whatwelikeaboutpurpleribbons — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 20:21:36 +0000

Tacos! Okay. I LOVE TACOS! They are the most delicous food on the face of the earth. Mexicans are just the best at inventing foods! The crunchy shell with the spicy meat, crisp & cool veggies, and hot taco sauce is just THE BEST food I have ever eaten! Tacos are just delicous, and I recommend you eat one. Like soon.

I searched tacos in the Associated Press website and all that came up were pictures of Mario Lopez. :/

I was reading articles on Yahoo, and I read one about Domino’s (you know, the pizza place). Anyways - Domino’s is changing their recipe. I am pretty excited about this because i don’t really like Domino’s pizza. I think that if they change their recipe, it will be for the better. Apparently the new pizzas will be in all stores by December 27th (now I’m concerned- in store? shouldn’t they just have new ingredients. I guess maybe they’ll change the dough..?).

Okay, one last thing. I was at a basketball game for my brother whose in fifth grade. There was a little boy there singing and dancing to Lady Gaga’s song “Bad Romance”. Like literally, he was singing “ra ra romp ay ya rah rah bad romance you and me we could be in a bad romance”. And he was dancing. In the middle of the court. Not even kidding.

This is really cool: http://image-swirl.googlelabs.com/. It’s like a website that finds you more images siimilar to ones you like! This explains it all.

Book Reviews: My Fair Godmother, Janette Rallison

whatwelikeaboutpurpleribbons — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 00:56:57 +0000

Here is how to find book reviews! You can search the name of the book, or the phrase “book review” in the little search engine on the left. You can also just look under categories: book review! Yay! Read on!

I just read the book My Fair Godmother by Janette Rallison. Haha, that was an interesting book. I would recommend it if you are into like Clique/Middle Ages (wait…those don’t go together). But, I thought it was alright. It was kinda cute, and it was a fun read. I would rate it 2.5 out of 5 stars.

Tests Before Break!

whatwelikeaboutpurpleribbons — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 23:57:26 +0000

Winter break is coming in 8 days! For many of you, you might get our earlier than the day before Christmas Eve! But not us! No way- the 23rd is our last day. Better than Thanksgiving Break, though (2 days off…lame). But what I really hate about Winter Break (especially the week before- namely this week) is the TESTS! I mean, seriously?? A geometry test on Thursday, and two on Friday: Science and Social Studies. The ones on Friday are both easy. Make a study guide= ace the test. But geometry is a whole nother (is that a word?) story! Uck! Theorems, postulates, corollaries. All part of the wonderful world of geometry. But, hopefully, it will go well. While we’re talking about school, I should tell you about my ADHD teacher. Oh gosh. Literally, every second is “Wait what? What were we just talking about?!” (and this is what the teacher says, not the student). Our class is 3 days behind- and never catching up. Plus, she always puts her finger on her chin and glares at you- but she’s smiling at the same time! Freaky, right?

Oh more news for all of you (if there are any of you reading this??)! New section: books.

This will be updates a lot considering I read ALL T HE TIME!

XOXO

Websites that are fun!

whatwelikeaboutpurpleribbons — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 00:52:42 +0000

I spend a lot of time on the internet (as you can tell from my obsessive post-adding). But there are some websites that I LOVE! Like they are totally amazing and wonderful and I want to share them with you so you can bask in their amazingness as well.

MyLifeisAverage: Similar to Fmylife, this website shares short stories that are just too average! They are so funny, and I love reading them. They alway make me laugh.
Picnik: This is one cool site. It is like photoshop for beginners. Plus, it is free (unless you upgrade). I can edit photos really easily on this site- anyone can become a pro! But, picnik is becoming a little more “exclusive” (they limit a lot more effects to their paying members than they used to). But, who cares! It is still a great site.
Facebook: Okay. Everyone knows what facebook is. But, I’m addicted. Aren’t we all?
Failblog: Who doesn’t love an epic fail?

Those are all of my top sites for now! I will add more!

The Holidays

whatwelikeaboutpurpleribbons — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 00:33:07 +0000

So unless you’re blind or the website’s fudged, you’ve noticed the snow gently falling on the top of your browser. Yay! Digital snow! We’ve added the snow in honor of the holiday spirit. Most people I know celebrate Hanukkah or Christmas (or are aethisit…haha just kidding…but there are like tons of other wonderful holidays to celebrate!). We are Christmas kids. The presents in the morning…stockings…christmas trees. All part of the most wonderful time of the year. But, Hanukkah is pretty cool too! I mean, 8 days of presents. But, you don’t get a lot on one day(its like 30 presents verses 8!). Its like a lottery win…lump sum or payouts. But one thing I really want to do is play driedel with the mall santa. I mean, go up to him and ask him to play driedel with me and my friend. And of course, we will play with marshmallows. I do love puffy white sugary poofs. But, Christmas is in 10 days. Santa will be gone soon! However, Hanukkah is going on right now, so Happy Hanukkah! Anyways- the Santa would be like “THEY DIDN’T PAY ME FOR THIS!”

XOXO

Scary people…and people with good hair

whatwelikeaboutpurpleribbons — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 00:17:08 +0000

Today, me and my friend were talking about two people; Li’l Wayne and Justin Bieber.

Umm…Li’l Wayne is kind of scary. All of those tattoos- the teardrops (guess what those signify)? And those dreads. But his voice is pretty intense.

As is the voice of our second person- J. Biebs. Haha I’m going to call him that from now on. Anyways- is he like wearing lip gloss? Umm hello- no ones lips are that glossy and pink naturally! And plus: his voice! Alright, he recorded One Time (the song) when he was like 13. But it’s been two years…his voice sounds pretty much the same. One of our friends is in LOVE with him. Like, when she saw him live, she cried when everyone else cheered. So, what do we like about J. Biebs? Well- his hair is swishy!

Justin Bieber- One Time

XOXO

What is this blog?

whatwelikeaboutpurpleribbons — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 22:34:14 +0000

Welcome to our blog. We are just two girls blogging about things we like! We plan to write about everything! But not our personal lives. Because when you write about that, the stalkers come. We’ve learned at least that much in our 4 years of Applied Tech. But mainly, we will write about things we love. But of course, we will write about some things that aren’t so great. Please read our blog-and tell your friends how awesome we are (well, will be)! Haha-right now we probably seem self-confident.

Trust me. We’re not.

XOXO
