 Well its been kinda boring for the last  4 days, on Friday afternoon Kynan, Braedon, Autumn, and Eden left on The Spirit of Tasmania for a 12 day holiday/trek interstate.
Until 10 mins before they left it was absolute packing, confusion, and chaos. Just kidding, no chaos, only a tiny bit of confusion but a MOUNTAIN of packing.
Its a big change having me as the oldest child here. All my life I've had the 4 of them to give advice and encouragement, but now its my turn....... at least for 12 days.
So if your reeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaly bored, missing siblings and just can't think of anything to do what is a better pastime then to watch 

Star Wars is soooooooooooo awesome. This time we're watching them in order and us kids managed to persuade Dad and Mum to watch the new trilogy with us. They both prefer the original, while  us kids like the new one better.
Yesterday we finished  Revenge of the Sith (it took a while longer then it should because the littler kids wanted to know "Why is was Pamae dead." or "Why is Anakin a bad guy") and are planing to  watch A new hope today.

Its still kind of hard to get that two men- like brothers to each others at the start- eventually try to kill each other and that Anakin can be so evil.

My rating for the two Star Wars trilogy's is: 95% awesome and 5% not so awesome.
The 5% bad is because watching Star Wars may make you go blind due to overexposure to 'Pure Awesomness' :D

Below is a deleted scene from Revenge of the Sith, this scene happens right after Obi-wan and Anakin crash-land on The invisible Hand, General Grievous's flagship, at the start of the movie.

Watch with full screen


Don't ya like the sign language?

Be amazed, and literally don't believe your eyes!!!

How many legs has the elephant got?


Move your head closer and further and closer and further away from the screen.

Look at the small black dot in the middle and soon the bits of colored fluff will disappear before your eyes!!

johnsadowski_castle_anim
This is probably my favorite. Look at the black dot in the centre when the image is yellow and blue then keep looking when it changes to grey, if you don't move your eyes the picture appear to be in color!!!


Count how many BLACK dots there are.


Read this out loud. Remember to read all seven words.

If you stare at the blinking pink dots, you will see only one color, pink. If you look at the the + in the center, you'll see a circle of pink dots and a rotating green dot. Now, stare at the + without moving your eyes. The pink dots will disappear and you will see only a rotating green dot.There really is no green dot and the pink ones don't really disappear. 


 The "I love Paris in the springtime" one worked on everyone I tried  it on. no one noticed it had two "the"'s!!

I'm back!!!!!

 Yes, after a very fun LOTR week I am now back to post on A Knights Quest.
Here's a quick run through of whats been happening around here.
*Warning. Totally random stuff coming up*

Random fact #1: Just to let you know, this is not a random fact, it is a boring fact because all it is telling you is that it is not a random fact but in fact a boring fact.

Random fact #2 On yesterday morning began the start of that stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, (If your wondering there are 84 stupids. Well, here's a few more) stupid, stupid, stupid idea by the name of Daylight Saving .(or was it the end of daylight saving?)
I believe its such a stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, (That's 32 stupids) idea!!! Winding the clock backward or forward just  for the sake of confusing people. Also, if some poor guy forgets  to wind his clock back on a Sunday night I didn't think he would enjoy arriving at work an hour late. (I don't think his boss would be happy either) And that means that for about half the year you technically   go to work, school etc. an hour early!!!

So to put it quickly ( even though I did a total of 119 stupids) I think daylight saving is STUPID!!!

Random fact #3 On Saturday when Dad, Mum and most of my siblings  came home after clothes shopping  (a very boring activity) they also had bought something else. That something else happened to be
                                              The first five episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars!!!!
Me and Vellvin especially have been wanting to watch The Clone Wars series for quite a while.

We watched all five that night and now we REALLY want to see some more!!!!


Random fact #4 We have also been watching the 2006-2009 Robin Hood series. 
There pretty good with lots of  sword fighting, sabotage, archery and action. I like Robin because through all the episodes he's absolutely dripping with sarcasm and of course he's pretty handy with a bow.
Much is soooo funny because out of all Robins men he is the worst complainer, always looking at the bad side of things and is always hungry!!

The sheriff is quite funny too, even though in real life he is one of those people you'd hate!! He has a certain sense of style; doing everything in a calm and stylish manner (except when Robin hood does something to annoy him, then he just yells his head of).
Alan A Dale's pretty cool.
Marians awful, she was done well, its just her character.
And I also hate Sir Guy of Gisbourne.

Currently there is a debate in our household about which is more entertaining: Robin Hood or the other TV series we're watching, Merlin.

 Currently I probably like Robin Hood more. Vellvin is a loyal Robin Hood fan while Rogan prefers Merlin.

Random fact #5 Our cat by the name of Cupcake (I know, unusual name. Mum's idea) has had kittens. There's four of 'em. And there has been arguments over which ones are males and which are females because Dad and Mum only want to keep the female  one(s) because males are know to run of and never come back. So at anytime during the day you might hear something like this: "We have to keep this one, she's so cute." "We can;'t keep that one, it a boy!!" "Its a girl. Trust me I know all about cats." "Yes, but do know all about kitten's?"

Cupcake and kitten's
Well that just about sums up my life for now. See ya!!

Happy birthday Bilbo and Frodo

Happy birthday to a wonderful hobbit by the name of Bilbo Baggins and a not so interesting hobbit by the name of Frodo  Baggins "Alas, eleventy-one years is far too short a time to live among such excellent and admirable hobbits."  "I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve." Happy birthday Bilbo its amazing how you only ever turn eleventy-one each year!!
We've been celebrating Bilbo's birthday for about four years now and we are doing the same this year. We're also having many different types of food (mushrooms included, Hobbits love mushrooms) were also having a cake (were going to try a triple- decker!!)  another tradition is we watch the party scene from The Fellowship of the Ring.




Also I don't know half of you bloggers half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve." =D



Happy birthday Bilbo and Frodo

Nightmare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well at the end of October Eden, Autumn, Kynan and Braedon all go over on the Spirit to the Christus Rex Pilgrimage on the mainland! We (Vellvin me Rogan Moran Myffwyn Corbyn Arwen Mum and Dad) can't go though! It's really annoying. So Rogan,Vellvin and I are all planning what we could do while they are gone. We want the trampoline fixed before then (seeing as the mats broken), were gonna borrow all 6 star wars from the video shop 'cause ours are on video and our video players not working. WE said we want Dad and Mummy to watch them with us even though they aren't HUGE fans! Shocking I know. And we think Moran could probably watch them as well. Were gonna watch some Merlin's without the others. Mwhahahahah!  Were gonna play on the trampoline and try not to sulk. No SCHOOL! We've all decided that (cept Mummy and Daddy) :P
We'll probably look like this when they go.
This will be us the first night.
We'll try to be like this.

And we might be able to look like this.

Hopefully they'll look like this when they get back.



And we'll look like this. :P

My sister Vellvin has done exactly the same post as I have 'cause we both actually got the pictures and did the post.

My life thus far

I suppose your wondering why I haven't posted in over 2 weeks. Well its been kind of hectic for a while, almost every second day SOMEONE has to have a dentist, doctor or some other appointment of some sort.
Well, Toy Story 3 was GREAT!! I'm not going to tell you anything about it or else when you see it (if you haven't you must) you wont be surprised. I will tell you I found Buzz in Spanish mode really funny.
I never have liked winter. In all the movies winter means snow and snowball fights and stuff like that, but not in where I live, all it means is cold damp days that are cloudy and cold but no snow. The only good thing is we can have the fires on, but even that has a downside: SOMEONE has to chop all the wood for all 4 fires. So on the Thursday before last (the 1st of July) I had had enough of continually chopping 2-4 loads of wood per day and then watching it disappear within 24 hours, so I spent the WHOLE day chopping while singing very, very loud 30 Seconds to Mars' "This is War"and ended up with 17 wheelbarrow loads.
A few days ago Mum had this great idea of moving all the stuff from the library room to the play room and the play room stuff to the library room. So we had to carry heaps of books all the way down to the former play room, Dad would load us up with a pile of books and then you would walk all the way to the play room where Mum and Autumn would put them in the correct place. Then Kynan or Braedon suggested that whenever Dad gave us books or when we gave them to Mum we would say "beep beep" like the roadrunner from Bugs Bunny. It really got on Dad's and Autumn's nerves. At about 10:00 I went to bed and the next morning found out the others stayed up till 3:00 moving books!!!!
Well I've got ta go do some Conformation reading (I'm getting Confirmed in 11 days)
