General / Homework Help (Spam?)
« on: October 05, 2014, 12:20:21 AM »
This is for Statistics, since none of my classmates feel the need to do any work over the weekend... on an assignment DUE ON MONDAY... but, to each his own.
I've resorted to online attacks! WHOPPERS! XD Everyone on Deviantart and FB are too busy doing nothing. SO... Here I am.

Ellywyn sobs uncontrollably. "I just want to get straight A's!"


Question: What animal do you see me as? (Thank you, Mrs. Conrad, for giving Mrs. Kent the idea to dip into psycology. It's pretty cool, actually. But stillullullulalalululululululololol.)
 
It can be anything: From an insect, to a bird, to a fish... i.e. Deer, horsefly, dragonfly, chickadee, rottweiler, parrotfish, shrimp, orca, giraffe, zebra, lion, etc.



::So far I Have::

Deer - 1

Golden Eagle - 1 (Gryphons not allowed. :/)

Fox - 2


**I do cumulative frequency/etc. after I collect all necessary data points (I need at least 20). Thank you in advance! :3 Eww chaaaaarts.

That chest cold? Yeah, not a chest cold. XD It's progressed a bit, thanks to me being stupid and deciding I wanted to walk in the RAIN, because - because--chest cold! As it turns out, I have pneumonia--as the title boasts.
So, while it pains me deeply to know it's going to kill my friends, my post count, and all you lovelies, I'm going to pop in less, and rest more for the next two days.
Tally-ho!
Just so you know I don't hate yah, I'm just snoozing. It's been storming a lot anyways, and our internet has been fuzzy at best. Yuck. It sure beats living in smog-city, though!
Carry on! Tarry long!

« on: June 22, 2014, 05:42:42 PM »
So. Yeah. Self-explanatory---except here's how we do it: The user above you has a word they want you to type. No peeking...

Ex:
Poster 1 > "Type: Conglomeration."
Poster 2 > "Ckglmertipn. LOL Close, right?
                  Type: Fickle."

Poster 3 > "Fickle. Easy!
                  Type: Whipperwallop!"

Poster 4 > "Wjillerqallop. That's not even a word!
                  Type: Sphinx."


And so on!

I shall start: Type: Grieves.

Introductions / Hello!
« on: June 17, 2014, 05:20:11 PM »
I just wanted to greet the other members of this forum and let them know I don't bite... Much. XD
Hello! I am Ellywyn. Ell, Ellie, Winnie, Lea, and Red all work as alternatives.
My favorite book series are WARRIOR CATS, WATERSHIP DOWN, and
TALES FROM REDWALL along with SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT. (I have so many others it isn't funny, but that's the gist.)

Though my all-time favorite book is Blood and Chocolate, by Annette Curtis Klause (it is not as bad as it sounds, though I would recommend it only for 17+ mentality. I discovered it when I was 13, however I was told I had the mind of a 40-year-old, so I never really cared about... Y'know. :/).

I will admit that I love comics (I am a geek/nerd/hippie/activist rolled into one), and once aspired to be a graphic novelist. But that was two years ago. XP
I love reading, writing, Anthropology, Psychology, German, Latin, math... I love to learn, in general.
I adore all animals... But I do not have any love for bugs. Idon'thatethem. I just wouldn't want to wake up to a stampede of tiny legs crawling all over me. Puppy legs, okay. Hippos are a bit too big, but you get the idea.

I love swimming, and hiking! Soccer is pretty cool, though I can't play worth beans.


I guess that's all... for now. :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Sorry if I blinded you with my colors!


Oh, no-no-no-nonononono! HO--LD IT! 



You should all nuzzle me before you go. Because nuzzles are love. And you should love me. I love YEW! <3

Not in a creeper way.

Mini-Games / Alphabet Soup
« on: June 17, 2014, 01:48:38 PM »
Alphabet Soup is About Life

Intructions: The first person to post on a new round (the person has posted about zee) chooses a theme (like, ''animals,'' or ''cars''). The rest of the poor suckers going down the line have to find a word that starts with that letter.

Example: Theme = Food
Poster 1: A is for Apple.
Poster 2: B is for Bark -- tree, bark.
..........
...skipping to the end...
Poster 26: Z is for Zapples! Okay, new theme is animals!
Poster 27: A is for Alligator!


And there you have it!


I will start it with an easy one: Animals!

A is for African Civet!

Mini-Games / Rhyme Zone
« on: June 17, 2014, 01:42:06 PM »
The Rhyming Game - each poster gets one line, and it must rhyme with the one above it. A new sentence = a new rhyme.
After a new page starts, you begin with a new word (lite, bright, kite, might --new page!-- dog, log, fog, etc.)


z.b.:
Poster eins (1): I had a chicken named bob.
Poster swei (2): I was walking down the--omgyglob!
Poster drei (3): The candy cane man took out a golden fob!

And so on and so forth. It doesn't even need to make sense!

I'll start:

Pinklefunk is my name.

Mini-Games / Lie to Me
« on: June 17, 2014, 01:35:02 PM »
I felt we needed more games.

Here's one I used to play a lot--it became harder and harder as time went on, for obvious reasons--and that's when it became the most interesting!

Instructions: You post three things about yourself, and people have to guess which is the lie. It's a fun way to aggravate buddies! XD

I'll start:

+ My favorite color is pink and green (together--in a pattern).
-  I dislike anything on my feet.
* I love autumn the most out of all the seasons.
