THERE IS A FORUM!!!


Okay, so this might seem like a weird thing, but I decided to make a forum. It's just a place for people to chat, and in the randomness section of the forum, I put a topic about this blog so anything on this blog can be discussed. I'll keep this blog updated so there are constantly things to talk about if anybody gets bored, which I doubt you will if you spread the word! So, enough chat! Here's the url:

(link removed for now, sorry for the inconvenience)

This is for all of you! Hope you enjoy! (and be aware that you must register before you view the forum - this is a safety feature I'm sure most of you will appreciate)

How to Make Your Own Music


Many people wonder how to make their own music. My answer? Go to jamstudio.com and do the $4.99 each month. Then you have the rights to your music. Then download "audacity" for free (google search it and it will come up), put in the mp3 of your songs, record (you may need to buy a mic, but I got mine for under $9 at walmart), and "tada!", you have a song you own all the rights to that you can put on your i-pod.

For those of you who couldn't care less, you can still give suggestions to me and maybe I'll make a song for you... we'll see. I hope this helps those who were looking for ways to make music, though. Good luck!

Eating a Vampire???



I found this really weird article (the originally came from BBC) that would allow some to say, "Yes, I've eaten vampire!" Weird? Read it! (The picture was with the article...)

"
There’s a vampire resurgence in Chad, and no, it’s not because Twilight has swept the African country. Cost-conscious residents have resurrected a dish slyly known as “vampire”: cooked animal blood, the BBC reports. With global food prices soaring and meat increasingly expensive, traditional vampire is “actually an excellent source of nutrients, especially for children,” a local aidworker says. Drinking livestock blood without killing the animal is common for Chad’s hungry nomads, and millet-beer bars and enterprising women have taken to selling vampire—often fried—for around 20 cents a plate. “I suppose it doesn’t sound very good to be associated with sucking blood, but I don’t really care,” one enthusiast says. “Perhaps it will give me the strength of a vampire!”"

Helpful!



Many people want to use the internet to do research, but just recently, I went to this little "store" where you bring things and take other things, so in escense everything is free. There was an entire collection of world books! I took a few for some research and found a lot about myths (look at this post). The information was better than what I'd found online, so don't be fooled: BOOKS ARE VERY HELPFUL! They also help you to build better vocabulary so you can say mean things to you little brothers without them knowing... just kidding. Sort of...

Myths


Many people wonder about vampires now that Twilight has become such a big thing, but do any of you want to know the truth? Well, I'll give it to you short and simple: witches, wizards, Bigfoot, dragons, mermaids, vampires, and a few other mythical creatures are all the same thing. What exactly this one creature is, I don't know. But I do know, from lots of research through very (old, heavy) world books, is that this theory is most likely correct. If you want to know the (lengthily) reasoning, leave a comment and be prepared for a "brain overload", as one of my friends said to me when I explained it.

Oh, and for those of you who look at Twilight like a bible (ugh!), be prepared to discover it's theoretically wrong. Ha ha!

What do you want?

Okay, so some people are probably wondering who I am. Well, if you check out my friend Makayla's blog, you'll see that I'm on her blog, so I'm going to put her on mine! MAKAYLA U ROK!!! (good enough???) Anyway, to make both of our blogs more well-seen, we're going to make a shared blog that will be an advice column sort of thing. We'll be posting more about this soon. If you'd like to see Makayla's blog, go to http://howrseranch.blogspot.com/

Make sure to become a follower of both of our blogs. Also, send suggestions or leave comments: this blog is purely for people's enjoyment. However, we put a lot of work into it, so it'd be pointless if nobody read these blogs. So, tell us what you want!!!
