A New Post (duh)/Comment Blitz

This is (obviously) a Brand New Post. I figured it was because of the title. With a title like that, it has to be a new post. :P

Here is my first announcement: my friend, Kirsten, has started a blog! I told her I'd introduce her to the rest of my bloggy friends. Bloggy friends, THIS is Kirsten! Kirsten, welcome to our part of the Bloggosphere! On the right side of my screen I have links to most of my other readers, but a few are not linked so you'll have to go to the comments section. Skittles, Guitargirl, and Judi comment fairly regularly, so you can meet them on there through their profiles. Welcome to my bunch o' bloggy buddies! You ought to receive a beginning blogging welcome packet, but it hasn't quite been invented yet, so you'll have to do without. But feel free to ask me any questions you may have about blogs!


Here is my second announcement: As of 9:27 last night, The Old Movie Blog is updated and you are all invited to stop by and visit HERE if you want to read my latest post! And I have another movie review coming up later this week or sometime next week, as well. Feel free to drop in anytime!


Here is my third announcement: the new Newsboys site is finally up and running!!!! I just found that out, and I'm glad. :^D They now need to fill it out a bit more, as it is rather bare. I wish I could get on the message boards! If I had an email address of my own....
I can't wait 'till the new album comes out! If I only had an extra $14 lying around, I'd pre-order it and get In The Hands Of God and Houston We Are Go. RRRGH! WHY can't I just SNAP MY FINGERS and have ALL THE MONEY I WANT?!? probably because then everything would be way too easy and I wouldn't be misrable so often. :-P

Here is my fourth announcement: I have a quick, painless, three-question survey I'd like all y'all who read this to answer.
#1. What is your fun little weakness (such as chocolate, coffee...)?
#2. Where is your favorite place to visit?
#3. Are you a morning person or a night owl?
I asked Skittles two of the three questions this morning, but didn't get to the third. To numbers 1 & 2, she said "CHOCOLATE!!!" and "Greece."
I asked one Adam Agee the same three questions, and here is his return comment:
"kiwifruit...
1. espn
2. grand cayman, cayman islands
3. hoo hoo"
Please respond, readers! Surely if Adam, who is a very busy dude, has time to dash off a quick reply, so do you!

Here is my fifth announcement: I have run out of announcements. Drat. I like to announce things.

Here is my sixth announcement: This is my 60th post! Which sounds great to me, until I look at Skittles' latest post...400th post. It makes me feel sad that I'm so way far back. *counts up posts* *tries to figger out a way to reach 100 posts by her 1 year anniversary* I have to post every 3.15 days in order to reach 100 posts by June 11th. That shouldn't be too hard (famous last words....)!

Here is my seventh (and final) announcement: I have no more announcements to make.

Let's see.... Oh! One very last announcement!

Here is my eighth (and very last) announcement: I am starting a new comment blitz! for the same person as last time, HMS Avalon. Here are the instructions: THE INSTRUCTIONS. Same place same person as last time. It has been over a month since her last post. Beg for more story, more about her life, anything, just ask for more posts!

Well, that's all that I can think of to post right now. Except that, at the Winter Jam concert, I got to meet Nirva, Shon, Brian, and Todd from the Diverse City Band, and Hawk Nelson. Nirva is very nice, and pretty, and I wish we'd been in a position to talk for a bit more. Shon was hawking their wares:
"Ice cold posters! Git yer ice cold posters he-ere! Oh, we have cd's, too. Do you want a cd?" he asked me.
"Sure," said I, playing the smart alek, "Give me some money, and I'll buy a cd!"
Shon laughed and 'bapped' my hat. Yes, Bap is a word. It's the sound that was made when my hat was hit. :D
And then Jason (?) from Hawk Nelson (whoever the lead singer is) signed by book "To [Kiwifruit], (heart) Jason, (smiley)" so we were playing around afterwards, pretending to be crazy fan-girls, swooning over the fact he signed with a heart. :D It was fun. I just wish we had been able to meet The Afters.

Well, I'd better go ahead and post this. See y'all later!

Hey. :) Gah, have I ever commented on your blog? How terrible of me. :P

An old movie blog? I better watch more AMC. :P

I wish I could have money too. I'm trying to save up to go to New Zealand. But that's not going so well. :P

1. Fun weakness? newsboys. ALL THINGS NEWSBOYS.
2. NEW ZEALAND. :D That's where my best friend is. :D
3. I'm both! A night AND morning person! :D If I had the stamina, I'd stay up for a full 24 hours. Which I've only done ONCE. :P

You got to go to Winter Jam? Kewl. YOU MET JASON DUNN?! KEWL!! Jason Dunn = lead vocals of Hawk Nelson. I know him as MohawkMan. :D

And thus ends my comment. :)

Brittany November said...

1- I'm gonna have to go with Blueh on this one; newsboys :-)
2- Concerts
3- I'm not sure. I can actually be a grouch anytime; it doesn't have to just be in the morning or night ;)

First, before I forget..The answers are:

1: Music..I have 150 cds..and still not enough..

2: There's this little walk way outside my youth building at church that I just LOVE to take walks on in the morning..I could go back and forth..so while it's not Italy or anything..it's a pretty place..

3: Night person..absolutely..I'm a creature of the night :-)

I will comment on Avalon's blog as soon as I leave here :)

Kristen said...

Gah! I hate commenting with my iPod. I can never remember--wait! *taps finger on screen* Lovely! I can now comment successfully. :D I art happy now.

That's great that Kirsten got a blog! Does she have the stamina to read my posts, perchance?

Ah! A new old movie post. I shall comment soon. Speaking of movies. I watched Fireproof the other day. Good one! And I am on pins and needles waiting for it to be my turn with the Cranford DVD. There's some six holds on it at the library. :(

I wish I had fourteen dollars too! Us poor students. I hope I can get a job at the plant research center this spring, summer, and fall. Hard work, but it pays well. More CDs!! And hats. And scarves. And clothes. :P But I don't have the space to store those things...sadness. I want a room of my own that has a closet!! Please and thank you!

#1 That would be Down Under the Big Top. ;)
#2 I want to go everywhere. I want to tour America and Canada and visit the British Commonwealth, mainly. Also Russia and France.
#3 I'm a afternoon person, I think.

Congratulations on your sixtieth post! I've been blogging for three and a half years. In that time I prolly haven't even posted two hundred times. :P

Comment blitzes are fun. >) Will run over and comment on her blog!

Meeting the Diverse City Band was awesome! :D :D Brain was funny. ;)

Matt said...

1. Music. That shouldn't shock anyone. :D

2. Umm, I don't know.

3. Night owl. Definitely.

Oh, and I already read your latest post on The Old Movie Blog, but thanks for the update anyway.

"Bapped"? Nice word!

Daughter of Eve said...

Ahhh!!! *faints* I LOVE In the Hands of God!!!!!!!!!! They've been playing it on LIFE 102.5!!! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO awesome! I directed everyone on my blog to comment on Kirsten's blog, too. :D Between us she should have quite a few commenters! :D Oh, that was fun on Monday. We really really really have to watch Two Towers!!!!!!!!! :D

Kristen said...

Ahhh! :D Look what Glenn Lavender just wrote on Twitter...

"@Owan thanks! Me too."

:D :D Oh, happy day!

See you tomorrow!

Daughter of Eve said...

You have been tagged with the "What's in a Name?" tag! Go to my blog to find it! :D

Sarah S. said...

1. Candy that does not contain chocolate.
2. Home (ie, Iowa).
3. Night owl to the extreme. Of course, having insomnia does not help things...

Piece of advice: Band comment boards can be fun, but they quickly get tiresome after the 200th "What is your favorite song" thread and the constant analysis and re-analysis of every song. Oh, and the people who whine about how the band has changed over the last 15 years (Horrors! Bands should *never* change!).

Yes, that was the voice of experience talking. Ignore it if you so desire. ;)

Kirsten's Korner said...

Howdy!

1. Coffee with chocolate creamer
(It's so satisfying).
2. Peninsula State Park, Door County, Wisconsin.
3. Night Owl.

Thank you so much for introducing me to the Blogworld. And I am very sure that I will have a lot of questions along the way!
Well, I am happy that I can finaly follow your blog!

~The Me~

Daughter of Eve said...

1. Chocolate
2. Bear Mountain, New York! (or anywhere in the mountains in NY, for that matter)
