I got Mum to agree that she wished there were two of her doing all that wedding prep. She sat in Pi’s cloning machine and BOOM! Two Mums. Still not EMO, despite suddenly copping twice as much wedding talk. I wish we could cure EMOs without actually talking to people. —————————————————— If you would like toContinue reading “Daylight Day 51: How to make a volcano”

2 Oct EMO used to stand for ‘emotional’ – the teen subgroup that’s only happy to be sad. Now it’s become a disease eerily similar to vampirism. * My name’s Bell. I considered being EMO once, but then I saw a pretty butterfly and got over myself. Got bored and decided to save the world.Continue reading “Daylight Day 50: Story so Far”

“I have to what now?” I asked Pi. He said, “Just ask Dad how often he bites Mum.” “But –” “We need to know. And I’m WAY too young to ask.” * Still not EMO, despite finding out Dad gives Mum hickies “every day or two”. I certainly FEEL sick. But will their grossness saveContinue reading “Daylight Day 49: Films”

“Bell! Bell!” said Pi. I said, “What?” “You were right! Mum has a natural immunity.” “Fantastic.” “I know. We have to clone her!” “Pardon?” ——————————————————————– FYI – if you live in Canberra, you’ll be able to hear me on the radio today at 8:30am on Artsound (92.7FM or 90.3 in Tuggeranong).

Mum picked fresh tomatoes for our dinner, and once again I could have sworn she was sparkling. But when I blinked, she wasn’t. Weird. ————————————————— Since it’s vaguely related to tomatoes: Yesterday I went to Questacon just for lunch. The cafe there has excellent hot chips, and possibly the world’s most delicious sandwich. It’s madeContinue reading “Daylight Day 47: World’s best sandwich”

“Two weeks to the wedding!” Mum yelled, waking me. At least I could be certain she wasn’t EMO. Dad drew sad smileys on the invitations. ——————————————————————— What road were these photos taken from?

Mum hung out washing and my heart stopped. She was sparkling. “Mum! You’re EMO!” I cried. She said, “Nonsense. Look again.” She was fine. * “Pi, I swear she was sparkling one moment and not sparkling the next.” “Impossible,” he said. I said, “You’re right. It must be the stress.” ————————————————– This week’s guest authorContinue reading “Daylight Day 45: Guest Author”

Ed said if I loved him I’d let him bite me. He was too weak to try, but I kicked him in the groin anyway. Suddenly my week got better. ——————————————– Right now for breakfast I’m eating the new dark Lindt caramel chocolate. It’s bitter and nauseating and impossible to stop eating. At the momentContinue reading “Daylight Day 44: Today’s Featured Chocolate”

In History, Mr Theo told us the World Wars were largely pointless. And so was the Industrial Revolution. And everything else. Still not EMO. —————————————————————– So I had a dream last night, and decided to base a novel on it. I also decided to write the novel this month (that is, in the remaining 19Continue reading “Daylight Day 42: NaNoWriMo”

Our French teacher lectured us today on the deep sadness of all European nations. Luckily, she did most of it in French. Still not EMO. ——————————————————————– Would you like your story published on the twittertales blog? Here’s how: 1. Write a story under 500 words (rated G or PG) by the end of this year.Continue reading “Daylight Day 41: Send me your stories”

For English, Miss Winter read “Wuthering Heights”. It was impossible to understand, because she was sobbing so hard. Still not EMO. ———————————————————– Where in the world* is this picture taken from? *Canberra

Decided to confirm Pi’s previous experiment, and challenged Ed to fisticuffs. Beat him easily every time. Science is fun. ————————————————————————- This particular entry (from a blog I love) makes one realise that EMOs aren’t the worst thing in the world. http://hospitalnotes.blogspot.com/2009/11/sour-experience.html

Ed played “Bleeding Love” until I smashed his ipod speaker. He said I was unsupportive and tried to bite me. I’ve got to stay alert! ————————————————————– This picture really goes with yesterday’s entry –  Spent our date night feeding Ed different types of animal blood. He likes dog best. I chose not to ask whereContinue reading “Daylight Day 37: Mmm”

All TV cancelled in favour of OC re-runs. Pi and I sat watching Ed cry for two hours. His fringe grew visibly. Still not EMO (pretty sure). ———————————————— This is funny (and informative): http://www.poewar.com/want-to-write-a-bad-novel-heres-how/  

The newsreader said, “Our alert has been raised to red – a deep, emotional red. You may as well get bitten. What does it matter anyway?” —————————————————————————– Apologies if this offends. . . but it IS funny.

Someone with a hand-drawn Red Cross badge came looking for donations today. I’m pretty sure they don’t usually collect blood door-to-door. —————————————————————————- Here’s two pictures of today’s road. Where is it?
