Ah, yes, the Hetalia fandom

It’s the third day of high school, so let me share with you an exchange me and my friend had.

We’re both taking German for the first time and the teacher is my neighbor, but my friend doesn’t know that. We were talking teacher first impressions, I asked what she thought about the German teacher, and she told me “he’s definitely gay. Do you agree.” And I was not expecting that because this man’s got a wife and five daughters.

She told me “I knew he had a ring but I didn’t think he was married to a woman.”

I did not know English had so many bloody words! Geez, how many do you really need?

[darthhope999]

Basically, I’m to lazy to make a video out of this so I’m just gonna write it on Tumblr.

I’m listening to some old songs I wrote about my OCs and geez, the characterization for MY OWN CHARACTERS is so off.

Atomic is so peaceful, he’d NEVER!

Echo is so peaceful, she’d NEVER!

Blackout is so peaceful, he’d NEVER!

I’m sensing a trend

I will forever remember who Edger Allen Poe is

Toady, in class, we were talking about Poe’s writing, specifically the Raven and some other poem about the death of his wife (who was also his cousin, I may point out.) And my teacher said something along the lines of “he thought a Raven was taking to him. The story is about the death of his…” then she kind of tapered of to let the class fill in the answer. And some kid in the back of the room shouted “husband!” Waved his arms in the air and fell out of his chair.

I think i need to make a comic out of this…

[darthhope999]

Anyone collect these?

I just found some and they are so cute!

If you do collect, I'd love to see them!

I think I'll name them Derek, Blossom, and Shelly.

Look! It's a little bunny couple!

Stuff I’ve heard at school (and other places)

Feel free to use any of these as writing inspiration

I have changed the names for anonymity

“THIS IS THE LOUDEST QUIET HALLWAY I’VE EVER BEEN IN!!!”

“CAN WE WALK ANY FU*KING SLOWER?!?”

“No, I just love to see you suffer.” “Nice to know you care.”

*gets slapped* “Emily! Stop hitting on me!”

“Just gonna put my nice, greasy, disgusting hair up.”

*Running down the hall at top speed* “Oh, don’t mind me, just making a salad! You fu*king donut!”

“WTF DOES PDA MEAN?!?”

“Sorry I was late! My bus missed my stop three times.”

“DAVID, DON’T TOUCH OTHER PEOPLE’S BUTTS!”

BUNNIES!!!

Guys. Three bunnies just moved into our backyard. They’ve got a nest and everything, even kits

Anyway, there’s three of them, and I don’t know the specifics of bunny mating but I’m pretty sure one must be the mate of the female while the other is… a brother? Hm. WAIT! Excuse me whilst I research bunny polyamory.

We’ve named them Otto, Atlas, and Meep, by the way. Expect to see them pop up in some of my writings. Oh, you forgot I was even a writing blog? Yeah, I did to.

I’ve got a few pictures, but I don’t think they sum up the cuteness nearly well enough.

(I think the far left is Meep and the right and center are either Atlas or Otto. Atlas has a big white tail and Otto is smaller than the other two. But I can’t really tell)

SPIDERS!!!!!!

Okay. It was 5am and I was drawing peacefully on my chair (because the only time I feel inspiration is past midnight.) Then, I thought I’d seen something out of the corner of eye… I looked up. What did I see? A FREAKING SPIDER! It was crawling on my blanket and I thought I was about to die. Nope, this is the end! So, I kid you not, I threw my iPad across the room, leapt out of my chair, and scurried like a scared guinea pig to the other side of the room. Where I then stood staring in horror at my chair.

What’s I morale of the story? Summer sucks and spiders are going to be the end of me.

How do you know you’re obsessed with a series? You have to chose a name for German class and you pick the name of your favorite character

[darthhope999]

So I haven’t slept in 48 hours and my room is about 90 degrees Fahrenheit and my boiling brain has made a relization. The cane Luca has to use because she was maimed by a horse… has the head of a horse on it. And I know it’s Balladaire’s animal but that just feels like salt in the wound. Nicholas was probably like “yes, let’s get a cane made so my neice can walk again after falling off a horse. What do you think we should put at the top? Maybe a cat, or a dragon, or- oh, yes. I have the best idea. Let’s make it a horse.”

The horse quite literally stole her leg.

Peanut is defending the magnets

Me an my family are on a vacation in hocking hills (hiking! Yay!) and the first thing my mom did when we got to the cabin was make a game show out of guessing how big a cinnamon cookie would be.

Mia is unhappy with our cat

She looks like someone killed het best friend

(I said she looked forlorn and my dad said she looked Fivelorn)

And here, here is a classic case of Sol being indecisive. A writing system that was meant to be a simple alphabet tuned into three separate writing systems with weird rules because Sol couldn’t decide which one she wanted and decided to go with them all!
