Some Big Thank You's...

Why hello there, you wonderful, sparkly unicorns.





Yeah, I really just did that.


Anyway, recently i've realised that I haven't actually physically thanked many humans on my blog. So, if you haven't guessed already by the title, that's what i'm going to do!

Ummm, yeah, i'm gonna thank as many people as I possibly can.



OMG.

OMG.

OMG.

(Is it just me, or does reading that make you think of those really cheesy harmonies some people do. Just a thought.)

Let's turn this into a tag!!

You have to thank as many people as you possibly can in, let's say... 5 minutes. You have to say their name and why they are so important to you.

I am a genius.

Right, 3, 2- oh wait. I need a timer. Just a sec.






Found one!


3, 2, 1!

My mum- she is a fantabulous support and I would literally shrivel up and die if I didn't love her the way I do.

Dad- My god your'e annoying, but I love you so much I can't explain it

My class- You are family, even if our genes are completely different

Edie- I am so jealous of you and your blog and I wish I was you

DB- we argue, but you'll always be a sister to me

All bloggers everywhere- you are such an incredible inspiration to me

Ewan McGregor- I've always had a mahoosive crush on you

Freddie Mercury- and you, Fred

In fact, Queen- You are fantabulous!!!!!!!!

All BANDS everywhere- I love rocking out to your music

Sia- I love Chandelier

Nellie- Gone but not forgotten

Nabila- your'e an awesome human and whenever i'm upset, i'll think of you

Oh, wowzers, that was hard. I also want to thank everyone on Earth. And the International Space Station cause a couple of you aren't actually on Earth. And martians for not giving us a hard time. Cheers, mate.

Ok! I tag-

-Edie-

-DB-

-Henry-Joy-

My Thoughts On ~ Feminism #1

Why hello there, Jellybean Army.

I think it is about time we started a little series, since my Top 10 Blogs Of The Month one was as much use as a chocolate teapot. The first post is something quite serious - feminism - so if you don't want to read on, you don't have to.



Still here? ALRIGHTY THEN. Let's do this..




I am a feminist. So much. Some people think feminism is something boring and political, but it really just means you believe each gender is equal. I am a feminist.

Some people don't think that. They think that men are better than women, or vice versa. I don't judge them, but it does make me wonder.

It's a bit more complicated when it comes to transgender people. I respect them, for they have fought many battles, and are a breath away from winning the war. There is a lot of debate at the moment, of which toilets transgenders should use, but really just leave it. Let them choose!

Anyway, if you are transgender, which i'm not by the way, some people treat you depending on which sex you look like, which also links to racism AND feminism. But it really depends on which sex you feel like.

Sorry, i'm going off topic!

Personally, I think everyone should be a feminist. If you are male, if you are female, it doesn't matter. You are a human. Everyone is.

Woah, that is enough serious for one post. Don't worry, most of the, ummm, episodes? won't be as serious as this, but I thought I would start with it as it is an incredible subject.

Thanks for reading!

The Text Tag :)

Why hello there, Jellybean Army. I'm am so sorry I haven't been posting lately, a lot has been happening and I think I just needed time to, well, think. But mwa is back and she is staying, babe!*


Soooooooooo, Edie-Rose, from Minty Perfections, tagged me to attempt The Text Tag! I have 0, nought, none, zilch idea of what the heck this is, so let's do it and see what happens, aye?

Some Guidelines That You Should Probably Follow, But Hey, The Choice Is Yours

~Thank the blogger that nominated you and/or give a link back to their blog~

~Answer the original 6 text-themed questions~

~Add a typography/word related question to those you tagged to answer~

~Tag 2+ bloggers and let them know~

~Include these rules in your post~

The Questions:

1. What is your favourite letter of the alphabet?

The & sign; this is actually an official letter of the alphabet, but hardly anyone PHYSICALLY knows.. but out of the common letters, L, and only close friends know why

2.What are 3 words that you love?

Bibliophile, boketto, and antidisestablishmentarism. Google holds the answers. Ooh, bonus one, discombobulated. And another, i'm being nice here, bungalow

3. What are 3 words that you hate?

Equation, goal and tricky. No idea why

4. If you were to create a word, what would it be and how would you describe it?

Cloopy - the feeling you get when you can't control yourself, and do really weird things without knowing it, and then feel really tired, and then sad, and then angry.. basically, the feeling you get when you accidentally murder an ant with your foot

5. What are your 3 favourite punctuation marks?

{ $ @

6. What are your three favourite fonts?

Cookies and Milk, Because I Am Happy, Hot Chocolate Latte

(Edie-Rose's question to me) 7. What is your favourite part of writing and words in general?

I tag:

~H-J (If you still blog, I haven't heard from you in a while)

Hello Fellow Human Beings!

Hiyas, my lovely jellibabies! First of all, I am so FUNKALICIOUSAGLAMTASTICSUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPITHRILLADELIC! I can't believe Edie did that for me! She is one of the best friends any human being could possibly ask BEG for! Oh, and I don't really know what this post is gonna be about. It's the adrenaline kicking in! (Or maybe my serious addiction to bubblegum is starting to get to my brain...) So, yeah. This is probably gonna be super boring and.......

NOT!!!!!!!!!

To be completely honest, this will probably COMPLETELY be the best post ever that will COMPLETELY blow you off your beanbag! Or chair! Or sofa! Or pony!

As mentioned in the last post, by none other than Edie Rose, the official 'Moonbaby Appreciation Party' was opened! However, it would be selfish to call it that. You know, after mwa. So, I have decided to call it.. whatever YOU lovely human beings want! Please, please, PUH-LEASE, comment, even if you can't, whatever you think KNOW we should call the Jellybean Army! I would go around screaming with happiness if you could.

Thank you for being awesome,

Moonbaby out! :)

Surprise!

Hi! 

First things first, I am not moonbaby and this is NOT my blog. It's Edie, I blog over at Minty Perfections and I want to give moonbaby a surprise. You can probably see I redesigned her blog. So, from her recent blog posts she has seemed a little down, let's cheer her up because, I, Edith Rose Castell, have the pleasure to officially open the Moonbaby appreciation party.

She wrote a list of things she wants to achieve. Let's help her.

4. Redo my room - you know, this could actually be a possibility! - You'll get this done for sure!

5. Get instagram - my very good friend and fellow blogger DB  has it. - You can easily do this, and DB will be there to cheer you on.

6. Ride a unicorn - what? Can't a girl ride a little bloomin' unicorn? - All you need is a saddle, a party hat and a horse!

7. Buy glasses from Claire's - glasses suit me, even though at the moment I don't need them - Easy!

Happy World Book Day!

Hiyas, my lovely jellibabies! First of all, this is gonna be a pretty emotional and serious post. (If I don't get sidetracked and talk about unicorns instead). But before that,

HAPPY WORLD BOOK DAY!!!!

As you already know, I am a HUGE bibliophile and read the dictionary for fun and believe we should have carts in libraries (Good one Noor, I owe you) so I just wanted to wish you all the best from me to hope you have the best day ever on the only holiday that celebrates books. Wait, it's a holiday, right? However, that brings me to the more serious and emotional part of this post. Here we go:

To be completely honest, I wasn't utterly ecstatic about world book day. *gasps* Not the book part, but the dressing up bit. I thought I was gonna be the only one in my class who would be from Rooftoppers. (Well, I was). Almost EVERY SINGLE BLOOMIN' GIRL was from Dork Diaries, an absolutely great tween novel series by Rachel Renee Russell. There were:

• 2 Mackenzies
• 1 Nicki
• 1 Brianna
• and 1 Jessica

I felt really left out because they were all hangin'' out together and, like, putting lip gloss on each other and styling each others hair and calling each other 'hon' and 'babe' and 'girlfriend' and painting their nails during assembly. (One did actually did do ALL those things!) I know they were just all in character but still, there I was sitting on the wall with my ripped cotton dress stained with coffee, and strange leg warmers from an old charity-shop-scarred jacket's sleeves and amaranthine lipstick smudge on my cheek. By lunchtime I was ready to go home.

But then I realised something. I should have come as someone from Dork Diaries. NO! I mean, I should have just enjoyed the day as what it was, not as what I wanted it to be. But, hey, now i'm really sad and actually trying not to burst out crying right now because I wasted the ENTIRE day worrying about what I dressed up as and now the next time I do World Book Day will be the last time I do World Book Day. There you go, i'm sniffing. FOR GOODNESS SAKE I'M ACTUALLY CRYING!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry about freaking out. Probably NOBODY is reading this because they think i'm such a drama queen, but I hate myself so much I don't even care at the moment.

Right, hopefully the next post will be a bit more positive than this one...

Moonbaby out :)


P.S: One of the only reasons iv'e told you this is because I know most of you actually like my blog a bit and wouldn't mind me putting some more serious things on it

A Whole New Blog?

Hiyas, my lovely jellibabies! Sorry, I haven't posted in about a month. But i've been thinking:


IS IT TIME TO START AGAIN?

I mean, it doesn't look like this sort of blog is attracting many people. Should I just create a whole new one? Please, please, PUH-LEASE, tell me if I should just start again. Take a more serious approach on blogging itself. Create a new one. Post different things. You know the drill. :) Here are some of my ideas:

1.) New blog design?

2.) Sort of a online diary... maybe

3.) Post more often

4.) And not be afraid to be myself. I mean, seriously! Nobody knows who I am, so I can be whoever I want to be. Right?

Anyways, tell me what you think.

Thanks for reading!

PS: It's my birthday tomorrow! *squeeee!*
