My Face When- Bleak House

Hey peeps! Ew. Did I really just say that?

Myself: YEP! You did!!! I am witness to the fact, and I am prepared to testify in court
Me: Totally! Just like I saw that squirrel crawling on the power line, yesterday- *gasps* I SHOULD TURN THAT INTO A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hold on, let me think....
Myself: *facepalm*
I: um, maybe not?

anyway, I did NOT just call you humans (if you are not human, just tell me in the comments, I'll make sure to stop saying it) peeps the very THOUGHT is UNTHINKABLE!!!!!!!!! Ahem, moving on.
So, I found a FANTILIANT post, on a blog that is also FANTILIANT, it is so FANTILIANT it is FANTILIANT

Myself: if you say that word one more time, you might find yourself with a bent nose.
Me: *muttering*
I: wait, is she lost?
Myself: *gives look of disgust*
I: what? I was TRYING to make a joke! *sigh*

Like I was saying, it is absolutely FA- er, fantastic! Check out her blog HERE or ELSE, I'll send Myself to hound you, and as you all can tell, she is quite... erm, brutal.

Myself: Thank you.
I: You're welcome
Myself: *glares* not YOU

Okay, onward, Christian soldiers!!

My face when Me makes another squirrel joke.
(I fear for her sanity)

My face when people say pink is a manly color.
(*voice dangerously calm*
Say what?)


Someone says Doctor Who is dumb...
(*silence*)
Then,

(Oh! It's a joke! Funny)
Then they say it is not a joke:
Then:



My face when my little siblings aren't doing their chores.
(Glaring icey daggers is quite effective)

My face when my little sister is telling another stranger the story of my family's life.

My face when people say they don't like to read and/or don't like books.

My face when I'm discussing a book I love with another person who loves it.
Just kidding, my face is more like:

Except with a lot more exclamation marks, and quoting and sqeals and a lot less dancing.

My face when my little brother announces everything he is currently doing to the world.

My face when I get a REALLY good story idea.
(ooh, I am such a genius, I gotta go tell someone)

My face when no one gets my story idea
(Fine, I guess it is just too complicated for your tiny human brain to process.)

My initial reaction when a favorite character dies
Then:
(What?? No!! *proceeds to wail and mourn for days*)

My face when I am defending a book, or homeschooling, or one of my siblings.
(Yes, I am one of many talents. One look can mean many things. This face could also mean, you have a little black thing on your tooth)

My face when someone says they don't like the Lego Movie
(Hint: I love the Lego Movie.)

My face when I find a witty and awesome come back- after the argument has ended, so it is no use at all. (NOOOOOO!!!!!!)

My face when I think of a witty and AMAZING come back- before the conversation is over! (Take that! Ha! Ha!)
(Yes, my friends! It is I, the great master of witty and amazing comebacks. No, no, don't bow to me! Oh well, I suppose now that you're already kneeling, go ahead)

The End


So, I doubt that was as funny as Rae's Pride and Predjudice, but it is a lot harder than it looks! I'll leave you with a hilarious thingy and a gif, because I want to
hehehe, the best right?? 

And from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, because, why not?

Well! That about wraps it up for today, folks! As you can tell, my schedule for posting is.... a bit off. Okay, it's not working at all. But that's fine because I have no idea how often I´ll be able to post in Nicaragua. Anyways, I have a few questions for you all before I leave you in the dark once more.

Did you like it when I asked specific questions of you knaves, or would you like me to be nice and just have the questions, or no questions or... anything else?
Also, did you like this My Face When, and do you want more?
Plus, anything in particular you want me to post about?? I'll be happy to oblige
And last, what do you think of me posting my reviews of books I've read on here? Oh, and movies. Thoughts?
Well, I'll be seeing ya!

Hello, humans! (And all you other life forms. Or ghosts. Or whoever happens to be reading this.)

I have not posted for... wait a sec... almost a month. Not since August, which is-

Me: far too long for you poor souls to be without my brilliance.
Myself: and my squirrel jokes.
I: Hi guys! I'm so glad to see you again!

Oh yeah, they're here too. Hello, girls.
I suppose I should update you all on my existence! Lets see... since I last wrote a post, I have been to Texas for a mission appeal. That went well.  Nothing to report. I have read a numerous number of books, and listened to many audio books too. I have listened to a bunch of fun music too. Ummmmm... I have decided that I will be adding more gifs to my posts because I love gifs! Also, we will-

Myself: tell more squirrel jokes! Do you know how to catch a squirrel?
Me: why would you want to catch a squirrel?
I: um, you use a net?
Myself: you climb up a tree, and act like a nut!*laughs*
I: *smiles* you are getting better, at those!
Me: I refuse to look at you.
Myself: *falls off couch* I- can't- can't- b-breathe!!

Wow. Just wow. And what is this with the interrupting me? Quit it!
So, I was going to do more in the FLC, but.... well, it didn't work out, so... I have the picture for the creature I made up, and also just so you know, TEAM DRAGON WON!

Thank you so much Kathryn for doing that!
Voila!  My creature. I used a 0.5 mm led mechanical pencil, and watercolor paints to color.



FOR CLARIFICATION: she is wearing a dress, and the two darker blue squiggly shapes are NOT her legs. They are part of the dress. Her legs are not visible due to the fact that she is wearing a dress. And the lighter blue shape is NOT a tail. It is ALSO part of the dress. Just thought I'd let you know.


Books I've read:
I may have mentioned some before, but who cares?
  1. The Percy Jackson and the Olympians 
  2. Demigod Files
  3. Trials of Apollo
  4. Mister Max the Book of Lost Things
  5. Sure Signs of Crazy 
  6. Wings of Fire
I know I have read more but I can't think of them at the moment!

Audiobooks I've listened to:
  1. Sparkling Cyonide
  2. Peril at End House
  3. 4:50 from Padington
  4. A Body in the Library
  5. Hercule Poirot's Christmas
  6. The ABC Murders
And I think that is it!

SPEAK, KNAVE!

What have you been doing lately?  Read any good books? ANY AGATHA CHRISTIE FANS OUT THERE?? Any books you would reccomend that I can add to my 59,0000 item long To Be Read list??? Who else has read any of the books I have? (Or audiobooks) My ears ache from hearing my own voice. 
Namaarie, Mellonim!
