Not as lazy as the others.... (not incl. Zara)

Hey hey

I noticed as I read Zara's post that she had 2 in a row... as I had not posted in 3-4 days. ANYWAY, I'm BACK.

For christmas (from immediate and extended family (I got shoes, HP lego, Dr Who TopTrumps, Teaspoons for my collection, a bookmark, Tea from T2, a teacup, a mug with a flute, a candle holder, cool bracelets and a jewellery box.
From co-authors I got a friendship bracelet and pencil from Zara, Harry and Dumbledore figures from Nira, and cool stuff from the body shop from Hazel. Love you guys!

Hahaha I have posted so much!

It's New Years Eve... but I'm not staying up for the festivities... I'm being sent to bed... at 9:50pm. :( Oh well.

Happy New Year everyone! May 2012 bring you what you wish and have a happy holiday season!

Of Notices and Holidays

Hello Readers and Authors of AHLOI,

If your name is Nira, I know you are home now so you blog or I will hold Mango and Albert hostage....

If your name is Hazel, I know you on holidays but you had wifi, stop being slack and blog.

If your name is Enesti, you are amazing, thank you for blogging and congrats (MWA HA HA).

My name is Zara , I am blogging for the second time this week and I am the author of this particular post.

So, I am off to New Zealand tomorrow and I might not get a chance to blog when I am there because I'm visiting family and I'm not sure about internet. I've been doing stuff to get ready for it for a lot of today. I have packed most of my stuff, tidied my room, loaded my ipod, bought new music and had Enesti sleep over last night. Actually that last thing has nothing to do with preparation but it was awesome.

*I used to be old but now I feel young cause I was boy when I learned how to run...* Hang on, I'm a girl, stupid lyrics.

Anyway, what was I going to blog about? Hmm, OH presents.

From my fellow bloggers I got: A fabulous bookmark from Enesti. Hermione and Hagrid models from Nira. An expanding face washer and lip balm from Hazel.

From various family members I got: a Sonic Screwdriver (Love my little brother), the last HP movie, the new HP lego game and the lego Knight Bus. A "Doctor Who" scarf, bracelet. And then, things that made E laugh, make up, a handbag and nail varnish... I wonder about my family sometimes... NO LAUGHING GUYS!

I haven't listed everything because my family is so big and my Christmas hasn't ended yet. No, I don't have a lesser known religion, I'm having a mini Christmas with my NZ family so we didn't have to pay for postage of presents.

So when I get home you will get pictures and details of my trip.

A few notices: DFTBA

IF I DO NOT SEE A BLOG POST FROM PEOPLE OTHER THAN ENESTI WHEN I GET HOME THERE WILL BE TROUBLE!

Happy New Year

Stay Beautiful

AND: It'll be ok in the end, if it's not ok, it's not the end.

Love Zara.

P.S. JP, RC, AC and LP. Enesti you know what I mean.

Zara's Extensive To Do List

Hi Guys,


I'm home from Sydney for three sleeps and then I'm off again. On New Year's Eve I'm driving to Sydney and then I'm flying to NZ for two weeks. But that's not what this post is about. No, this post is about my long to do list.

So, you'd think that being away for five days wouldn't set you back that far wouldn't you? I came home to 32 unread emails, a million blog posts to read and more washing than five days should give a person. Now for the list.

1. Do all that washing. I need a lot of that clothing for NZ and my parents wouldn't be happy if it wasn't done.

2. Put all my belongings away. Let's say that my family is rather large and Christmas is quite an event. And I get another Christmas in a few days so a build up of stuff is not a good idea.

3. Tidy my cupboard. Yes, yes, I know, it's a boring task but it has to be done. Stop laughing.

4. Watch Harry Potter 7 Part 2 and play the new lego game. I love Christmas. Well some kinds of Christmas...

5. Blog as much as possible. And blog about thrill points, because we can't have Ravenclaw winning by that much, or winning at all. I AM KIDDING ENESTI, DO NOT EAT ME! At least it's not Gryffindor and Slytherin... OI! You're not allowed to eat me when you read this.

6. Write up Dear Diary and Black and Blue. Why I am the the one typing the group fanfics up? Actually don't answer that.

7. Write the 30 songfics challenge up then post it on fanfiction.net. It's going to take a while.

Ok, next post from me will be about Christmas and presents. After that is one about one of my dares for thrill points.

Also, Happy Belated Birthday Nira, have fun being 15. Merry Belated Christmas to everyone. And Happy New Year in advance. On a side note, this year is two hours shorter for me and next year is two hours longer, gotta love time zones.

Quote: (Harry)"Hermione, when have any of our plans ever actually worked? We plan, we get there, all hell breaks lose" (Ron) "He's right" [Watching HP 7 Part 2 now]

See you later

Love Zara

Another family Christmas

Hey hey

It's Nesti again. Currently I am at the third and final of my family Christmases. The first one consisting of just me and my immediate family. The second with my Dad's side of the family and today I am with Mum's side of the family.
My cousins Lia and Belle say hello as I watch them play a game of chess.

I injured myself earlier. I was playing backyard cricket with my brother and some other cousins when I dived to get the ball and collided with a brick wall. I now hav a massive graze stretching the length of my upper arm. It kind of hurts.

Zara didn't end up coming shopping yesterday. More of her relatives turned up so she was 'hanging' with them.

Aaaahhhh more and more of my family are finding out about my blog as they walk into the room and spy me typing on Dad's iPad. Dad only found out yesterday. So hi Dad if you end up reading this.

Everything is settling down as people get tired.... OMG I just remembered some news! I officially love bunny rabbits. My cousin Lia has one named Buttons and he is adorable.

Well that's it for now see you later.

Enesti

It's Christmas Time!!!!

Hey hey

Right now I am in Sydney in a family apartment. Watching Stormbreaker (movie) just saying that I find it quite horrible. I am blogging from my Dad's iPod, so, thanks Dad. Not that I think you read this 'cause I have never told you that I actually have a individual and a joint blog. Not that I mind if you find out.

Anyway, I am rambling. I'm meeting up with Zara tomorrow. In Sydney. Cause we're both here for Christmas. Bring on the boxing day sales.

!!!

Merry Chritmas to all!!!

Hmmm. Well. Update on the summer house cup.
Ravenclaw: 135
Hufflepuff: 70
Slytherin: 70
Gryffindor: 60

Everyone list your pressies in your next blog if you can. I won't do it this time because I have only just introduced the challenge. Points awarded on excitement and over all awesome level. Sound good?

Merry Christmas enjoy your holidays.
Enesti.

New house

I have finally moved into my New house. YAY!

Nothing To Say

I really have nothing to say today. But I need to blog so that I earn points here.

Wait! I have something. Gmail Buzz is GONE! As in it is no longer there. WHY??

Breakdown over, it was meant to leave months ago but it just never did.

*looks around room* Hmm, Maybe I should in here. There's paper everywhere. Nah, I'll do it later. I need to practise duets at the moment.

I know this is short but my day hasn't been crash hot. There's not even a scroll bar showing up here.

So yes, this is the end unless I think of something in the next five seconds.

1
2
3
4
5

I cannot think of anything, nothing at all.

Now there is a scroll bar so I can leave. See you guys later.

No customary sign off here.

Yes I'm Blogging... At School

Hi all,

Sorry I haven't blogged in a while, my parent have banned me from the computer, so, as the title says, I'm blogging at school.


It's currently 10 days from Christmas and 17 days until 2012. It's sad that I'm counting down, I know...

The rest of my class are playing Halo at the moment, so the lab that I'm in is filled with the shouts of 'don't shoot me' and 'ha ha, I killed you'.

I think that's all I have to say for now...

Nira out.

Christmas Challenge!

  Hey hey,

Ok so I've now decorated  my bedroom. I think this is worth 5 for the idea and 10 for each thing.
(BTW I also have Christmas crackers which I think is also worth 5)

 These are little golden instrument with Christmas ribbons. Along my wall.

More little golden instruments. Above my window.

Cool doodads on my window.

A sign made of tinsel on my mirror. 

This gives me a total of 50 points extra, plus a short blog below worth 5. This plus the 70 I had before.... I'm on 120!!! (If you guys agree with the score for this)

Ok so tonight is my brother's year 12 formal. I got to go to the arrivals. Call me a steriotypical girl all you want but I did find myself waning the shoes, envying the amazing dresses and planning my formal arrival for next year.... didnt get very far.

I have also decided that if I don't get a date to either year 10 or year 12 formal I shall grow up to be an old cat lady. :D

MERRY ALMOST CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!
Enesti. <3

Ok well... oops

Hey hey

Ok so today I was meant to blog about my progress with YouTube.... oops. Zara and I got a little distracted, blame sims 3 and straightening my hair...

Yes well, we played celebrity heads in maths today. We ordered folders in Band. We played charades in SoSE. We had trivia in science and I actually did work in Art.

Umm I think thats it... I'm now on.... 70 points !!!! Woooo Totally winning right now.

If you want to care, you need to care about more than just gossip.
Enesti

My horse

Hey all.

As the title suggests I have been introduced to the app My Horse. It is amazing and I am addicted. For that I blame Enesti, she was the one who gave me the link and told me to get it. I blogged again. YAY! This puts me on 65 points. Zara you need to get my horse. How is the YouTubing going Enesti? I am in the middle of moving house so my house is not decorated. My house is not very Christmassy. (I think I spelt that wrong.) Anyway. I need to remember to buy some Christmas presents because I have nothing for you guys.(By you guys I mean Zara, Enesti and Nira.) I need to go now. Bye.

Peace Out
Hazel.

Remember Who You Are

Hi Everyone.

13 sleeps until Christmas and it's getting Christmassy and my place. We have our tree up, Christmas shirts have been worn, carols have driven Dad crazy and the dog has worn his collar with bells on. Yup, it's Christmas here.

Today I have an advice post for you. So as the title/subject/thingy at the top says, Remember who you are. No matter what happens to you, do not change because someone else wants you to. It doesn't matter if it's a boy, girl, friend, parent, teacher or a, what else is there? Anyway, what I'm trying to say is be who you want to be, not some random who is a fake. REMEMBER THIS!!

Just over a week of school left for the year. Then we're in year 10! That is a scary thought.

In thrill points, Nira is banned for technology so she's not losing points. Enesti and I are earning points now from blogging.

The Standings are now: Hufflepuff- 65
Ravenclaw- 65
Slytherin- 60
Gryffindor- 50

As Enesti said, we had our last day of work today. We work at different places but at the same time. The little girl I babysit finishes school on Wednesday. As a celebration we painted our toes in Christmas colours. Musketeer (joke between us) is ten and is almost like a sister some days. I'm going to miss my Monday afternoons.

People are hyped about musical. I'll be singing backstage and doing interpretive dance of all the songs. So yeah.

Excuse me while I die of shock! Hazel has posted. No hitmen sic'd on her. For now...

I'd better go back to making Christmas presents and writing cards.

Oh, and apparently, I've changed the world. Thank you Enesti.

And in the words of a good friend of mine : Love many, Trust few and always paddle your own canoe.

Love Zara.

I AM NOT SICK

Hey all,
Yay I am not Sick,  AND  I have posted.
Now I know that I have not updated in ages and I will try to work on that. I am not getting any thrill points for this post because I have left it too late. BUT I am getting the points for being the last to get sick. This puts me on 60 Thrill points.  YAY! Sorry that this is such a short post. I will work on making them longer.
BTW people School sucks and it is NOT the best years of your life.

Peace Out
Hazel.

*sigh*

Hey hey!

Today was my last day of work for the year. *tear*
Oh that's right I haven't told all you folk that I have a job. Hehe. Anyway, I'm a gymnastics coach for 7, 8 & 9 year olds. Today we had a party and the big trampoline was set up. Aaaah so much fun.

As an update to my life right now, today I (and others) received the audition piece for our school musical next year! The musical is going to be Footloose and and the audition peice for the girls is Holding Out For a Hero. Aaaah so excited to start practicing. Luckily we get all of the holidays to practice and perfect the song.

Zara is coming over tomorrow and teach me some stuff to do with YouTube video editing etc. so my post tomorrow will probably be the efforts of that.

Umm.... What else is happening in my life right now? Well I have some news that I'll share with you on Thursday so wait a couple of days for that. ;)

Score update for the Non Bummer Summer / Summer House Cup.
Ravenclaw (Enesti) - 65
Hufflepuff (Zara) - 60
Slytherin (Hazel) - 60 (Once Hazel blogs to claim her points)
Gryffindor (Nira) - 50 (She is having a little difficulty posting at the moment)

I shall post my Christmas decoration challenge outcome on Wednesday... Give you something to look forward to. ;)

Yay one of my longer blogs. You proud of me everyone?

To change the world you only need to change one person's life. Anything after that is a bonus.
Enesti.

Christmas is coming!

SO!

Christmas is coming up... I AM SO PUMPED!!!

I propose an idea for our Non Bummer Summer. To gain thrill points you must decorate your bedroom with something christmasy eg. lights, tinsel, etc.

I also say that to get Hazel and Nira to blog, each post is worth 5 thrill points to the author, but you can only blog once a day and each blog MUST actually have something to do with what you have been up to/stuff to do with the Non Bummer Summer.

I know its a short blog but I promise a longer one next time.

Enesti.

Thrill Points

Hi Everyone,

So I neglected to you that we had won thrill points in advanced. Two weeks ago-ish, Enesti had real Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans and she shared them with us. Being the brave soul that I am I tried one first. Alas, it was Earwax. I'd just like you all to know that it's not that bad, minty after taste. I got 30 thrill points for that. Then Hazel and Nira tried Vomit, it was entertaining and they weren't allowed water. Nira looked ill and I'm not so sure about Hazel. They both got 30 points.

After two classes Enesti pulled out four dirt flavoured ones. Those were NASTY!! I can deal with Earwax but I dislike dirt! The three of us got 20 points for that and Enesti got 30 because it was her first one. She then ate a soap one, not good apparently. It also tastes like soap, that was her first comment.

And now Hazel has more thrill points because she was the last of us to get sick. BUT she loses points because she was sick on the last day of Spring and Enesti stood no chance with her parents, Nira and me being sick. Also, she's losing points because she got a splinter in her eye... she had an eye twitch yesterday. Good fun, she looked very Slytherin Princess with her sunnies on indoors. We need to decide on the thrill points she gets, I'm saying 10. Sound good girls? She will not be getting any if she doesn't blog. *glare*

So to recap, I have 50 points (TO HUFFLEPUFF), Nira has 50 points (TO GRYFFINDOR), Hazel has 50 points (TO SLYTHERIN) and Enesti has 30 points (TO RAVENCLAW).

Girls, blog or I'll start removing thrill points,and that's not an empty threat. Don't doubt me for a second.

Love Zara

Right. Well. December

Hey...

After being pestered to blog by Zara, I opened up Blogger and saw she had posted. Then I looked at the little calendar thing of when we have posted, over in the side thingo over there >>>>>
None of us posted in November. Oops.

So... Whats up for Nesti? Umm... Well nothing really. School still hasn't finished. Still 12 Days left... But assessment should be done soon.

OOOOOH. Ok. Well I wrote a short story for English, and I'm really happy with it.


Yes well short blog I know...

*inspirational comment*
Enesti

It's Been A While

Hi All,

It's Zara here. You'd think that during my month of "Holy Cow, I'm writing a book and I'm going insane" my fellow bloggers would have given you a post or two. Lazy people that they are.

Now that it is summer we're starting a competition. Even though it doesn't feel like summer, I spent all day home sick and sleeping, except for my rehearsal for charity band. And that was a bad move. And I'm wearing winter pjs and bed socks.

Anyway, onto the contest. Ok, so it's based off one held in a movie the four of us went to see together. It's called "The Non Bummer Summer" We basically earn thrill points by doing dares. We're going to be running it through this blog. Authors, you'll be blogging about each dare you complete. You put the dare as the post title, have a picture of you doing the dare, a description of it and how many thrill points you think it's worth. The rest of us decide on points in the comments.You also include your total thrill points so far. Sound good? All we need to do is work out the dares. If anyone has any ideas, leave us a comment.

I'd better go and write up a set list for the band and do some editing.

Love Zara. (no hugs for anyone because you do not need what I've got)
