My Best Friend is a Rainbow Kitty Cat

Now what I really wanted to blog about was my last post...er...the post before the Winnie the Pooh post.  Yeah, the crazy one.  I don't think you are really reading those long rambling posts.  So just to sum up that post for you (so you don't have to go through the trouble of reading that whole thing), it's impossible for me to combine my ideas into one single story.

You know how I can't ever finished any task I assign myself?  It shows in my blog because there are several past posts that I say, well I'm going to add this to my blog, and I'm going to this ___of the day, and I'll post pictures and stories and garbage from my computer so that the world will understand and...it doesn't really work.  The only sure thing about this blog is that I'll always post regularly unless I say otherwise.  But I remember back in the beginning of this blog, I was all like, "I'm going to blog everyday!" and then I couldn't.  Because I'm a busy girl.  In fact I probably should go and write a summery for my science experiment right now.  But I'm not going to because I read one chapter in the Scarlet Letter and answered the rest of my history questions this morning.


I want to post more music, but I can't get myself to go on YouTube.  I don't feel like searching for things online right now.

Look at that!  I lied.  I realized that I did have an urge to look something up.  It needed to happen.  Eventually.  Because this is such a cute song and now that I've seen the music video, I have to agree that it's adorable.  I blogged I while ago about this song and I wrote the chorus' lyrics because I loved the song so much.  It's called Don't Have Love by Holly Starr.  The whole thing is just adorable.  The tune, the lyrics, the music video; heck, even the song writer has an awesome name.  Not that I don't (tee hee).  But you'll never know my real name...except if you actually know me.  But this is getting off subject!  Well, then again, when does this blog ever stay on top of things.

Main point:  I love music and I had the courage to go on YouTube today so that I could find my (new) favorite song.  I can't just say this is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE or something in bold, because I love so many good Christian music.  And I don't really care if people think I'm psycho because I don't listen to anything new besides whatever they have on Spirit FM.  People really aren't writing very good music anymore anywhere else.  I mean, some of the stuff on Christian Radio (in my opinion) is dragging a little more lately.  I mean, there is a lot this year that's good and catchy and like, but most recently, I haven't really been jumping when the radio says "New Release" or something.  But I have to say that, if I had an Ipod, I would purchase this song off of ITunes.  But I have a MP3 that has an almost full memory and I don't know how to take songs off of.  So I'm stuck with whatever junk I put on it three or four months ago.  But at least I think I know what I'm getting for Christmas this year.

I'm also sad that my speakers aren't working for some reason.  Stupid technology.  Everything looks the same: phones look like Ipods, Ipods look like Tablets, Tablets look like Ipads, Ipads look like miniature flat-screen HD TV's, HD TV's look like 3D TV's.  Soon our world will be paved in electronic, touch-screen, tiles.  I hope DS's don't turn into little dual screen tiles.  I think I would cry.  Not that we even own that sort of technology, nor do I care right now for it.  I wonder when they'll move from flat surfaces to round balls.  Then people will be kicking balls to call their friends and burn calories at the same time.  They already make ice cream machine kick balls so my idea isn't too far fetched.  Well maybe it is but anyways.

Oh and if you are interested in finding out more about Holly Starr (like I do) go here:  http://hollystarrmusic.com/about/

I love it when people use the gift of music to spread the word of God, it's so touching.  Not just Holly, but people like Jamie-Grace, Matt Maher, Matthew West, Stephen Curtis Chapman, and Francesca Battistelli, to name a few.  Speaking of Jamie-Grace, I still have an unsigned picture of her.  Maybe I'll get it signed by her one day.  I love day dreaming.  With imagination you can fly when you're grounded, travel the world while you remain in your bedroom, walk when you know you can't even stand...But sometimes imagination can be a terrible thing, you can see the worst that hasn't even happened yet, hurt yourself on words you don't mean, rest in a past of pain...The worst thing about imagination is also the best, sometimes you can't control your thoughts and sometimes you can.

Wow, I've said a lot.  I guess this is what happens when Muppet's not here for me to pester her with my strange ideas and theories or whatnot.  I'm going to go do something constructive.

Rolling in the Deee-eee-eeep and Video Game Images

The last Adele song that I know and it's right here.  Or more like above here since the word here is not actually where the music video is but...

So I finished my school for today (or what I can do of it right now since my sister has the book that I'm supposed to read a Ronald Reagan speech from).

I kept checked my email today and then realized that I wouldn't have anything new since Muppet is at some Drama Meeting that only a few of us drama people are going to (excluding me).  Muppet, her mother, her friend, Al, and our director were the only people at the meeting.  Apparently their talking about this summer's musical.

I feel like listening to good music now... Ah, Matt Maher!  That's good music!  Or at least to me.  Jesusfreakhidout.com isn't very fond of him.  Hence the fact that they only show two of his CD's.  My family owns three of them.  It shows Empty and Beautiful and Alive Again but it's missing his newest CD.  It also does not show the newest Francesca Battistelli CD or anything from Mike's Chair.  But they have the lyrics for Jamie-Grace's EP on their website.  Seriously?  And you don't have the newest Francesca CD?

Anyways.

I'm trying to animate a cat as shown below in these two pictures:


and yes I know that Mario is in the picture here.  He was mainly there for sizing the cat correctly.  As you can see, I have set pictures for the cat walking, moving its head, sitting, and jumping.  I feel like I could make a video game with these images.  I've tried making video-game-like images before as shown below in these Blob Adventure games:















These I never attempted animating because I don't really have a real way to animate image beyond scrolling through images on Microsoft PowerPoint which is what I've been using for the cat.  But it's still cool.

One day I'll make a videogame and I'll be famous and...Yeah, that will happen.  Just like it'll happen that I'll have 1,000 followers on this blog and lets not even mention numbers of Facebook friends or friends in general.  Oh well, I'm pretty happy sitting here creating junk on Paint that only I look at ever.  But I think that the junk is pretty.  Look a lady with a cat!  That one's old.  I don't think I've drawn something like that in years!



Look!  They even have different hair and the cats have different fur colors!

So now you know what I've been up to, I'm going to go do something fun for a while...

Happy Easter to All and to All a Good Night!

Happy Easter!

So I was going to blog today which I obviously am.  I wanted to blog these Matt Maher videos my mom sent to me:



So I tried posting this before but Blogger was having issues with me logging out from Gmail and then it ruined my post so I had to delete the last three videos and replace them.  So it should work this time because I have not logged out of Gmail.

I am excited to say that my Easter has be fabulous.  I got a brand new hat!!  I'm so happy!  I have plenty of Easter candy to munch on and I had a lovely traditional meal (in my family at least) of eating lamb and lasagna on Easter with all of our family.

I wish a happy Easter to all and God bless you all.  I hope you have a great Easter.  I'm wearing my hat.  That means my Easter is perfect.  Lasagna, candy, hats, and a whole hour of Facebook...How could life get better?  Oh, wait.  I just realized plenty of reasons.  But it's good enough.  I'm going to have a ball to day!

Mo' Music. Mo' Happy.

'Mo of me to day.  That is Cos- Mo'. LOL.  Okay so it wasn't that funny...I thought you might like to listen to a ton of good music right now so I'm posting mo' of the good stuff. Yeah, I should stop with the mo' thing.  It's not really my style.


You are welcome.  Don't feel bad about singing along either.  I hope I have inspired you in some way.  These are the songs that inspire me.  These songs are the reason why I listen to Christian radio stations like the Joy FM.  These songs are the reason that I love music.  They show that music can be helpful and encouraging and that music can have a good message.

Whiskers on Kittens--My Favorite Thing

Well, obviously.  You can tell since when I uploaded some of my pictures on Facebook one-hundred and two of them were of kitties and less than fifty of my pictures were of my friends.  Speak of the Pluffen, I get to go on Facebook tomorrow.  I gave up Facebook for lent, except for on Sundays.  So, since I only get an hour of computer time on the weekend, I will probably only use half of the hour on Facebook.

Since the title says "Kittens" I'll put some more paint pics.

 Yeah, he's staring at you; and NOBODY ELSE.
 AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! SO MANY KITTIES!
 I love this one.  "Even in the dark you can still see the light.  It's gonna be all right."--Matt Maher
 Cosmo!
 Cosmo!
 Even MORE Cosmo!
 And my favorite cartoon cat of all time!
 HEY! This isn't Cosmo!  What is the world coming to?
 Cosmo.  Again.
 and again.
 Oh look it's Firepaw.  I almost forgot how much I loved the Warriors series! Below is his beloved Sandpaw
 Later in the book series, their names get changed to Fireheart and Sandstorm.
 COSMOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
 Sunny.  I was wondering where the pictures of her would come in.
 Teenage kittens!  Wait, that doesn't make any sense.
 Sunny.  Again
 Sunny plus drama equals Dramatically Cute
 I know people don't like black cat because they mean bad luck; but get over it.  They're really pretty to draw

 Sam.
 (music plays the tune of Sherry) Sunny.  Sunny kitten. Sunny.  Sunny kitten.
 More of Sunny.
Sam has and awesome tuxedo.  Real cats wear tuxedos.

That is the end of that.

So.  Since it's spring break, MY SISTER FROM COLLEGE CAME HOME!

OMG I have missed her Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much.

And also since it's spring, I DON'T HAVE TO DO MATH NEXT WEEK!  Also, I GET TO (hopefully) VISIT MUPPET ON WEDNESDAY AND WE GET TO PLAY MARIO KART WII AND AWESOMENESS!

PLUS, we get to eat chocolate fondue tonight.  Fondue is Fun to do.  Kinda like that saying "Underwear is fun to wear" except "Fondue is fun to do" is WAY better.

So I recently decided there should be a Twilight spin off called First Bite.  Only to my dismay to find out that it was a completely unoriginal thought since, APPARENTLY it had been done.  Oh well.
