Updates on Stuff

Hi Guys!

Well, I'm sort of an organised person and I hate mess (unless you look at my room). And so this blog doesn't get clogged up with designs, I would like to introduce Graphics That I Made. It's still a work in progress, but I have transfered all of the freebies from this site to that one. You will also need to order at that site.

I have made a new template aswell, which I'm considering putting on this blog. You can view it at My Test Blog. (*UPDATE* I changed my tester blog, so youi can now veiw it here)Its meant to be a bit like Frangipani Princess's blog (except with the Minima template instead so I can still do backgrounds).

And at school today, I sat on a rail of some stairs and lent on the fence post and now my hand smells like dead ant. (Yes, I DID wash it). Also Glee starts tonight. YAY! I really like that show, and I'm really hyped up, only I have a meeting/club thing on Thursday nights, so I have to  watch it on the internet (Thank God for the internet!) Not as good as a TV screen, but it will do... (this last one wasn't really an update, but I felt like saying, whether you like it or not, so HA!)



P.S. Am I allowed to make my own awards to give to people? Just asking. I'm sort of new to blogging =P

Around the Globe and Back

Today I'm talking about Emails. Anyway, I opened up my email today, and from one of my good friends was a chain mail-y/game thing. You had to type a word and then the next person changes one letter then types (E.G. Bear, Beat, Boat etc.), Then your name and city/country.

It started in Australia, then went to the UK, the USA, back to the UK, various countries around Africa, Australia, Africa again, then the USA, to New Zealand, then to me, in Australia.

Anyway what I'm trying to say is that it's amazing how one email get sent all the way around the world.

Wow, there really ARE a lot of people out there.

Again, Sorry for the short post.

New Name

Right, I am REALLY in need of a new blog name. None that I've had so far have suited me. And now I have named this blog "Summery Converse". I mean, who names their blog that?

(Sorry for REALLY short Post)

3D Glasses

I LOVE 3D glasses (well the ones you get in my state at least). They are the shapes of Ray Bands Sunglasses. At school, we knock the lenses out and wear them like that. LOL. Last night at the movies, I grabbed a whole handful out of the recylcling bin for glasses. Yes, I know it's discusting. But glasses are a dollar each. And I can wash them :D


Anyway, sorry for the short post. And should I do the Teen Girl's Day Book?

How to To Train Your Dragon - Reveiw

Yesterday was my sisters birthday, so we went into the city, did some {VERY boring} shopping, and then went to see a movie. The movie we saw was... How To Train A Dragon... IN 3D (dun dun dun)



Plot...
How To Train Your Dragon is about a tribe of Vikings, and in particular, a boy called Hiccup. Hiccup's dad is the leader of the tribe, who's village is alwayds being attacked by dragons. Hiccup works in a blacksmith shop and has always wanted to catch and kill a dragon, so he can get the attention of Astrid, a girl in the village. When dragons attack again, Hiccup decides to go and try to kill one with a homemade cannon/catapult. Low and behold, he gets the tail of one. The next day, he goes for a walk and finds a Night Fury, the biggest, most feared species of dragon, and the one he shot. No one has ever found one, and lived to tell the tail. He pulls out his knife, but can't pull himself to kill it. The dragon can't fly becuase it's missing its tail. Hiccup is soon enrolled in Dragon Hunting academy. He becomes famous amongs the villagers, because he has a "way" with dragons. Hiccup calles the Night Fury Toothless. I'm not going to ruin therest, an you will just have to go see it yourself.

My Thoughts...
DEFINATLY 4/12 stars. I LOVED this movie. It was one of the best movies I have ever seen, and I highly recommend it. I also liked how they made it sort of modern, like at the beginning, Hiccup says 'Most people have normal pest, like fleas, and mosquitoes, but WE have Dragons". So it was sort of lik ethey WERE

It would have 5 stars if the begining weren't so boring. I remeber thinking "Well this movies gonna get 2 stars on my blog tommorow". It's also a bit sad and scary in places. Again, I highly recommend this movie.

Drops of Coloured Water

Colour Spectrum is too posh for me. And it didn't suit me either.

As Warriors101 said though, it will just pop in to your head, and you will like it. And guess what? Drops of Coloured Water popped into my head. Do you like it? Should I keep Colour Spectrum? Should I pick something else?

Let me know what you think...

Name Change...

As you know, this blog's name is Colour Spectrum, which is just a fancy term for rainbow. But, it just doesnt suit me. What should I change it to? I like shipwrecks and history like that, the beach, rainbows and that cartoon owl in my background.Maybe the name could be something a bit inspirational?

Thanks,

Angry Wasps, Movies About Wizards and Some SERIOUS Head Banging (A.K.A. My Easter Break)

Well, I just came back from a holiday, so now I want to wish you Happy Easter, so Happy Easter Everyone!

Anyway, on Friday, we started packing, like anyone would, getting ready to go away for a few days. We drove for 1 hour, and then stopped at our Grandma's house, where she gave us some VERY yummy Anzac Biscuits and some Winter Pyjamas. Thanks Grandma :)

After driving for another 2 hours or so, we arrived and set up our family's campervan on a friends (lets call him John) MASSIVE property, half of which, I didn't even know he owned. Then we watched "Up" (great movie BTW), which John had hired from the Video Rental Store. Except I fell asleep on the chair next to John's daughter (Lets call her Louise) at the part where Dug is wearing the "Cone Of Shame".

The next day we basically just stayed home all day watching Up and ABC3. But at about 11am, we went into town because I needed a new jumper as I left mine at home. We got a really petty one at an Op Shop for $23, which was a bargin.

That night, some other friends who live in the area came over for dinner. They made this really yummy salad with spinach, feta and beetroot *mmmmm*

Then, on Easter Sunday, we went outside for an Easter Egg Hunt. I helped hide the eggs though, because chocolate eggs aren't exactly my favourite food. Hiding eggs was really fun, even funner that watching Louise find an egg up a tree, but not being able to reach it, and then my sister coming along and getting it for herself and being soaked in the rain. But I will admit, I did "find" some of the Crunchy eggs I hid.

It was really windy, but we still drove half an hour to the beach.We turned into this 4WD track that had become a but eroded because of how much it was being used. Rocks were sticking up so it was REALLY bumpy, and I'm gald I was sitting in the front of the car so I didnt bang my head on the cargo barrier, even though my heaD WAS BANGING AROUND. About half way up the track, there is this grass tree that is about 300 years old and it's MASSIVE. When we got to the beach, John and my Dad cast out their fishing rods after driving up and down the beach looking for dark patches that could be salmon. My sister, Louise and I went in the water and swam. We also tried to surf (sort of) on this big greenblow up chair, but we kept getting dumped with the waves. After seeing a man with binoculars who we thought was a ranger (We had dogs with us, and dogs weren't supposed to be on the beach), we decided it was time to go home, even though no salmon had been caught.

On the way home, we got some more movies. Wizards of Waverly Place ( that's the bit about movies about wizards), Princess Protection Program and Hotel For Dogs. AHHHHHH, I have the song at the end stuck in my head. Ruff ruff ruff , ruff ruff ruff.

Then on Monday, both of Louise's sets of grandparents cam over, some in the morning, and the others in the afternoon.

On Tuesday, we started packing up to leave. And now, the part about the angry wasp. We were about half and hour from home when this MASSIVE wasp came into dad's open window and then eventually walked into the bak of the car, where I was. Whilst being VERY scared,I carefully picked it up with my shoeand tightly held my shoe out of the window. When it was gone, I just went back to my music. About 15 minutes later, IT WAS CRAWLING UP MY LEG! I screamed, screamed REALLY loud. It was back. It hadn't fallen out the window. Again, I picked it up with my shoe and now really really scared, i held my shoe out the window until i saw it fly off.

So now, I leave you with this thought. If Charles Muntz is about 30 years old when Carl Fredrickson is about 9 years old, How is Charles still alive when Carl is about 65? Wouldn't that make Charles about 85, and too old to live in the wild with a pack of talking dogs?
