No cartoon childhood memory tonight, only a video.

Hello, everyone! For the next couple of blogs I would like to discuss my favourite Cartoon Network programs, seeing as they always fill with me with joy.

Now, of course as a female child I adored The Powerpuff Girls. Bubbles was always my favourite crime-fighting kindergartner because she was forever happy and had a large collection of soft toys, like me. My favourite villian was Mojo Jojo because he was outright hilarious and my favourite episode from when I was around 6 years old was 'Mime for a Change' where a Mime was turning the city of Townsville to black and white, so the girls purified it with music. I absolutely loved that song that they played. Current PPG items I own are a jigsaw puzzle, a Little Golden Book and The Complete First Series on DVD. I did once own two small books with large soft toys on the front but I decided to give them away. One was Buttercup on the front and the other with Bubbles. As I got older I made more friends and played outside more often when we did have Austar (the pay for TV service) but when I stayed inside we got rid of Austar. Occasionally we would have Austar and get rid of it, depending on if we could afford it or not.

One of the biggest TV moments happened in my life though as a child. The Powerpuff Girls Movie. When it came out, I always rented it out at Blockbuster. I wanted Mojo and the girls to be friends, that's all! Whenever it aired on Austar of Free TV, I would grab my popcorn and rush to the loungeroom! In Preschool I pretended to be The PPG, whether it be friends or imaging that the other two girls were there. :) Most of the time I was imagining.

About 4 years ago I decided to watch some good old PPG and I noticed something. The animation was cleaner and so were the voices. I had not seen this before, which meant only one thing. New episodes! I couldn't stop watching after that, but occasionally Cartoon Network Australia wen down the dump. I made a blog about that once but I cannot find the link. After recieving a $50 JB Hi-Fi card from my oldest brother and his family for Christmas last year, I went to a store and got The First Season of The Powerpuff Girls on DVD. When I got the chance to watch it, I was actually saying the lines as I remembered the episodes so much. I also picked up on certain jokes that I didn't understand as a child. For example, Him. I knew as a child that he was a male lobster-devil like creature that acted feminine and he always made me giggle but...still.I loved the extras on the special, like the original pilots and the Space Ghost special where we see Craig McCracken in a swimsuit....because if he didn't Space Ghost would disqualifiy him for the competition of getting and he was the last contestant anyway. You should watch it, it's on the DVD mentioned earlier and one of the SGC2C DVDs.

Last year was also the start of my love for voice actors, so at the credits of the episodes I would pause and try to recognise the names, other than the girls, The Mayor and Professor Utonium because I already knew they were Cathy Cavadini, EG Daily, Tara Strong, Tom Kane and Tom Kenny. I was very surprised when I saw named like Dee Bradley Baker, Jeff Bennett and Jim Cummings.

Recently I have been wondering, should I watch Powerpuff Girlz Z? As far as I know it's an anime loosely based on classic Craig McCracken cartoon but with major differences with storyline and design. I have seen some pictures, and as The girls and The Rowdyruff Boys look pretty rad, the other character designs are...can't think if the word. Iffy? Odd? I'm not used to them? I remember seeing commercials for them as a kid and I knew they aired on Boomerang at the time but I was still curious whether or not to watch it then. I still haven't seen every episode of the original. 78 epsiodes, gee that is a lot.

I cannot wait until the new special (not series, special) coming this year where the original cast will reprise their roles with an extra guest, Ringo Starr! I cannot wait, to see our girls back in action! I'm not sure how to feel about it being in CGI though.....

Well, that's all from me tonight! If you read the whole thing, I am so happy! This blog took like and hour due to distractions...and dinner. :|

Goodnight! :)

-Lauren

P.S Boomerang Australia are airing PG and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends all of a sudden! Yay, the only other shows they air are Tom & Jerry, My Little Pony and Barbie movies. :|

My computer was being annoying so I have to start thos blog again.

I hoped you like the last blog! Ninfia/Nympheon is a great Eeveelution, I should save up to buy the game.

For Single's Awareness Day I gave free hugs, muffins I made and cards to 5 friends. In return I got hugs, a cupcake, thank you's and choclate.

I went to the town library and hired out the following items.
Puppies in 3D.
Saving Zasha.
Frenemies: Cats, Dogs and Lesson in Getting Along.
Television Shows that Changed our Lives.
Avengers: The Origin
Astonishing X-Men: Northstar
The Marvels Project
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Book one.
Fullmetal Alchemist Book one.
Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers.

At the library I caught up with a friend from primary school and my Year 7 teacher! :D

In FTV (Film, Television and New Media) we watched Psycho and I LOVED IT!! :D It's the first film with a toilet, because they disallowed those things in films. The guy who played Norma Bates looked cute. The violins hurt my ears. I want to watch it again! Apparently there are sequels and I saw the trailer for the second film. I want to watch them all. We also watched trailers of films that were considered scary before Psycho like Godzilla and Creature from The Black Lagoon. :P I want to watch those. :| We also saw a trailer for Blood Feast. It had a guy warning the audience about watching 90 seconds of blood, advising people with weak heart conditions and such.

I have Zim and Dib shimejis (desktop buddies) on my screen and they're so cute!

Yep, random blog.

I watched the complete first season of Camp Lazlo on my DVDs. Wow, this show is great! "Do you even know what hotdogs are made of anyway?" And the episode where Edward was pulling everyone's pants down! :lol: That was the best. I love Edward, he's the best character in the show in my opinion. I tend to like characters voiced by Mr. Lawrence. And Edward is a platypus, how could you not love platypus'?

Um, I have to go to bed soon and I'm runningout of ideas.

Goodnight, Happy...*shudders* Valentine's Day.

SO CUTE OMIGOSH

Hello! First week of school has been great! Yes, I'm going to talk about school. Don't groan, because groaning sounds very odd.

On the first day we all headed to the hall to meet the new prinicipal and to see which RAS classes got split up. RAS is a mixed class of grades where we do activities and hear the notices. It lasts for about 25 minutes. Our RAS classes was splitting up because of our lack of enrolled numbers. We lost some amazing teachers because of the student population, which is stupid. My RAS class got split up, which I was okay with. I disliked many of the teenagers that were in my previous class. In my new class I recognised a few acquaintances and 2 friends. But the teacher is one of the most horrible teachers from history. I know this from experience a few years back. I'd rather not explain though. We recieved our timetables along with school diaries and headed off to our designated classes.

That was the first day. I met a new friend and spent some time with a few mates of mine that have suffered drastically from the floods, but they were happy and gleeful. I also helped my neighbour around the school, as she is new to this particular high school we attend to. She didn't like her old school so she decided to go to mine. The school were donated abosolute bucketloads of food for flood victims but they need to get rid of it as most of it is fruit and it may be rotten within a few days, so everyone is allowed to take some. Food such as kiwi fruit, huge apples, cookies, chocolate slices, bananas, grapes, peaches, plums, biscuits, scones, sponge rolls and water bottles have been offered and taken. I took a packet of sponge rolls to share but then I decided to give them to one of my buddies. Well, he said he was hungry. When he opened it I took two sponge rolls anyway. :P I've been taking some apples, grapes, slices and cookies. I keep forgetting to bring my own water so I took some water bottles. Due to the current flood disaster (which everyone now refers to as 'last week') the water bubblers are unsafe to drink due to the sweage. Two of them have tank water proivded but it still tastes odd so people take the fresh water bottles instead! :D

I have 6 subjects this year. I have OP English, Maths A, Drama, Film, Television and New Media, Art and Ancient History. I did have a spare study lesson but they made that a fourth Maths lesson this term, which shall be switched to an extra English lesson next term. :x I think we are being rushed into learning more because of the curriculum. I don't know, I blame everything on Campbell Newman these days. :P There are now detours to North (where my school is) WHICH TAKE FOREVER. because the police guide cars letting some cars in and out etc. I'm sure you would have some sort of idea if you have plenty of experience on the road. The detour exists because the main bridge I take to go to school, has a giant hole in it due to 'last week'. There is also a destroyed road on the way I take to GO HOME so I'm going to have a torublesome relationship with those roads for a very long time. Even worse, I take a bus home and I guess the student's parents are sick of driving their kid to school due to the detour giving them frustration and anger because THE BUS IS NOW SO FULL I ALWAYS HAVE TO STAND UP. I miss sitting down. :(

Good news on the flood situation! My grandparents have been given a home to stay at! I got my room back! Bad news, it's going to be taken again for one night or so. My cousin's band No Right Turn is coming to town and they need a place to stay so.......why not our house? I forgot to mention that my Aunt and Uncle came here to help out with the floods and with my grandparents and they are still staying here for the meantime. A few days ago there was this charity cricket game nearby with The Army and SES ( think????) and at the end there was fireworks easily visible from my house! They were so close and pretty! :)

I need a get a job really badly or an extremely rich friend. Why? I want to go on this ski trip excursion but it costs about thirteen thousand dollars. I've never experienced snow and it starts around June (or July?) so I have to hurry up and submit my resumes everywhere. Oh, did you hear about that new Xbox console apparently will disallow second-hand games to due activation codes and required internet connection? I'm sorry but that's a load of fishpaste. My Dad said it should be illegal. :|

Goodbye! I apologise for the lack of humor and how large this text is, so here's a picture!

FINALLY! I'M SO EXCITED! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

But first.....I just started playing Street Fighter X Tekken with my brother and it's fun, though I don't know the moves.

I did the update.

SO MANY NEW CHARACTERS!...

I'm unsure, do you have the pay for them? If you do that would suck. I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEAS OF WHAT THE BUTTONS ARE except for changing characters. But I want to play as Sakura! She's locked!!!! :(

Oh, um yeah people have been cleaning up their houses but there are lotters on the loose. :(

My grandparents' house is okay but the stuff inside could be destroyed. :(

I really hope school can ACTUALLY start this week, like it was supposed to be last week. But the bridge I take to go to school has a large hole, and the road I take to go home is destroyed, only light traffic is allowed for now, which means no buses. I take a bus to go home on that road. :T

I hope I can start school this MOnday! I feel so...UNEDUCATED! D: That and I got to give a very late birthday present to to a friend of mine. :)

Well, if you like to (and haven't already) please help!

Thank you! :) Especially to those who may have helped already. :)

Can you please help? :)

School is cancelled for this week due to the floods. Well, my school is near the most flooded section of my town. :|

WELL.

Today I had to go to my dentist to get a new filling in my front tooth. I was supposed to go later but the workers wanted me there earlier. They can only get so much people with the flood situation. :| I went to see my child dentist. :D While he and the other lady inserting the filling, I got to lay down watching Ice Age 3 on the television which was on the ceiling. :P

My top lip, front teeth, gum and my one of my nostril's have been numb for about 2 hours. The lipis JUST starting to go back to normal. :P I was allowed to eat straight away after the filling unlike other times where all I could eat was jelly. :|

On tumblr a few weeks ago, I made a post about how I fangirl over certain voice actorsand I mentioned Phill LaMarr. A few days ago, I saw an update. 'phillamarr likes your post'. I checked the blog and it's LEGIT IT'S ACTUALLY PHIL LAMARR'S TUMBLR. I freaked out in joy. :P

Oh, if you don't know, Phil LaMarr is a famous voice actor. He's Jack in Samurai Jack, Wilt from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, Hermes Conrad from Futurama and many more! :P

Um, bye.

First the tornado hit our coast, labelling it as a disaster zone. It was raining cats & dogs for 3 days nonstop and although it finally stopped yesterday, our river is flooded and heaps of people are either trapped or have evacuated. I know a few people that are okay but the other I'm unsure about. The bridge is flooded, and that's the way I go to school. But our Premier just said that schools will be open and I have to check a certain website just in case but a helicopter just flew by and I couldn't hear the television. Heaps of helicopters today have been helping the trapped people! I saw a white one, a white an red one, a blue one and an army one! I really want to go to school tomorrow, not just because if I miss school stuff usually gets crammed into our hits (I mean catch-up work) but it's because TOMORROW WILL BE MY FIRST EVER DAY OF ME BEING A SENIOR STUDENT. Year 11. *sheds a tear*

Yeah, we start the new school year at the start, not in the middle like overseas. :| My Mum washed my scool uniform just in case anyway. I've even been decorating my school books with pictures from SGC2C, Ed Edd n Eddy, Spongebob and Invader Zim. But I only got 4 books done and they're mostly Invader Zim. I'm so glad I found my calculator yesterday! XD

Oh, the river is at the north section of the town and the houses there are flooded. My grandparents live there so we picked them up before the water rose and they are staying here for now. Not only my town in trouble, but also other parts of Queensland and New South Wales! :|

Now, for the big answer to the question you all haven't been wanting to ask.....(Wow, I'm very negative and positive!)

AM I TRAPPED FROM THE FLOODS?:|

:|:|:|:|

:|

Nope. :P

The river is about 6 minutes away by car but the ground is higher up here. Only my backyard is flooded, but it's getting smaller. :| It rained 5 minutes ago. :| It's getting really hot here. :| If my house was flooded, then the whole town would be flooded considering how higher our land is.

If there is anyone else in a situation like this, stay safe. :D

Bye!!
