Fifties Fair

My friend and I went to a fifties fair yesterday.

This is us having a professional photo shoot.

(Sorry about our faces being cut out,

but we wish to keep our identities to ourselves.)

The dresses were really nice and authentic.

Everyone was enjoying themselves.

The hostess with the mostess.

I loved the dancing and the singing.

My friend and I wanted to dance but we didn't have partners and we felt too embarrassed to dance together.

We had a great time and I hope I can bribe my cousin in to coming next year.

(Hehe, joking.)

Monkee Obsessed

I'm really obsessed with the Monkees right now, I even named four of my toy dogs after them.

And I asked my Mum to buy the Monkees Annual for me, this one's from 1969.And this one's from 1967. I'm still waiting for the 1968 one to come.Here are some funny comics from my two annuals:

This one is funny, I personally don't think the fashion today is very appealing, not to mention practical.
I love this one!
This is very true, Davy Jones is only five feet and three inches. Poor guy.

Character Tests

I did some character tests with my sister and we laughed and laughed and laughed, so you can guess how fun it was. Here are my results

My male Lord of the Rings character was:

I like Legolas but not Orlando Bloom.

My female Lord of the rings character was: I'm glad I got her!

My Chronicles of Narina character was: I love horses, but is being called one a good thing?

My Trixie Belden character was:He's cool.

My Famous Five character was:

A bit sulky but nice.

Computer Art

I made little cartoon faces of the Monkees (a band of the 1960's, in case you didn't know) on my laptop today, they're quite cute, if I do say so myself. It didn't take very long, probably only four hours altogether. From the left they are: Davy Jones (the lady's man), Peter Tork (the simple one), Micky Dolenz (the funny one) and Mike Nesmith (the leader and my favorite Monkee).

Book Review

I have just finished reading Amazon Adventure by Willard Price, Here are my thoughts on it:

Was it a good Adventure? Yes it was, but it got a bit extreme at some points.

Were the characters well written? Yes, the main bad guy especially.

Was it educational? Yes definitely, Willard Price was a natural historian.

Was it suspenseful? Not to me it wasn't, but some people might find it so.

Would you recommend it? YES, it's good for home schoolers.

Your overall opinion. Well written, fun and you learn a lot, what more could you want?

These are a few of my favorite things

Reading

Singing

Writing

Sewing

The 1960's

My Bow and Arrow

This is my bow and arrow I made a few month ago. I made it out celtis wood and string, and boy, you should see what it can do, I've lost more than five arrows over the fence and when I shoot it at a tree, it doesn't bounce off it stays in there.
