Little Miss Sunshine - WINNER ANNOUNCED!!

[silly_pagan_lady]

Thanks! Yours is really great too. She looks so happy to go to school when she boards the bus.

The fuuny thing was, she literally will drop everything when the bus is coming. She will wait in the front or be taking care of the cat, hell... if she is dancing on her father's feet... if the bus comes, she is on it and laughing.

She says I'm artsy even though I keep repeating to her I'm Gloria.

That's so cute! I love it when little kids do things like that

I stole the line from my son. Everytime someone tells him he is a cutie, he gets a little angry and says "no, I'm a boy!".

[tbpear16]

Ohhh!! Cute! You're both locked as of now- sorry I didn't do it earlier.

C'mon, let's see those other entries!!

[seqkat]

Am back! Thanks to all those who sympathised- good wishes are always welcome

I love everyone's entries so far, you guys are making it too hard to judge! Perhaps I'd better get ill again lol...

[tbpear16]

I am going to PM the contestants who have not yet submitted an entry... thank you to those of you who did! If needed, I'll extend the deadline again. I just don't want anyone dropping out.

[silly_pagan_lady]

hehehehe... I just talked to Strangel - she said she will get hers submitted soon.

[tbpear16]

Great! The deadline is tomorrow...

If Bitsy, Strangel, and ChickenSensei don't get their entries in tomorrow, I'll extend the deadline.

[simslova]

Isn't it past the deadline?

[Bitsy]

I thought today was the deadline? I have three of the five pictures done and have been working on it all morning. I hope it's not past the deadline!

[simslova]

Uncle Tylesh says that I've become quite the young lady. It's been a long time since we left the forests of NeverNever. Now we are going back, but just to the outskirts, and only for a little while. It is safe, for now, and Aunt Relkaea says this might be my only chance to learn how to do magic properly.

Freestyle


Uncle Tylesh is going to teach me everything he knows he said. How exciting! This is going to be like a whole new adventure. It looks really hard though. He stood there quietly for a little bit and then raised his arms and blue and purple clouds began to swirl around him with balls of white light dancing all through them. It looked amazing and terrifying and wonderful all at once.

The Classroom


I tried and I tried but I could not summon my magic. I was worried that maybe I didn't have any. But, Uncle Tylesh says it's really hard the first few times and that I just needed a break. So I wandered off into the forest a ways and pretended to be an explorer on an adventure just like I used to when I grew up here. That's when I found the fox. He was really small, and looked kinda scared. I was kinda scared too, I thought he might bite me when he stretched his snout towards me, but he just licked my hand, and I jerked back in suprise!

Freestyle


That's when I realized that the fox was stuck. His little front paw was wedged tight between the boulders and I wasn't strong enough to lift them. I wanted to run and fetch my uncle, but I didn't want to leave the little guy all alone. After thinking about it for a bit, looking at this poor little fox that was starting to whine a bit and kept tugging on his poor little paw, I decided I would try to use my magic. I didn't have a really, really good reason before, but now I did. Maybe, that's what it takes. So I closed my eyes and I concentrated. I felt this woosh of amazing, terrifying, wonderful power go through me and I opened my eyes to see balls of white light dancing through blue and purple clouds that were swirling around me. Then, it happened...

Close Up


I think I overdid it. At least the fox is okay, he looked a little spooked, but he didn't have a scratch on him. I managed to finally do magic! It was the most amazingest, terrifyingest, wondefulest thing ever! I can't wait to do it again, though I have a feeling I have a long way to go, especially if everytime I do magic I'm going to end up leaving craters everywhere. I bet my aunt and uncle won't appreciate that.

Full Body


I told the fox that he could leave and find his family now and went back to try and find mine, but the little fox followed me. I tried to run faster and faster, but he easily kept up with me, even though he was very little. I think he likes me. He followed me all the way back to the edge of the forest where my Uncle Tylesh was waiting for me. I think I will ask if I can maybe keep him. My family is used to me picking up friends where ever I go. I even already have a name picked out for the little guy, he's so fast and so quick, I think I'm going to name him Swift!

[SOULANGEL980]

Awww. Your stories are so darn adorable! The magic school thing is rather original too!

[tbpear16]

Wonderful entry, Bitsy! Now we're just waiting on Strangel and Nathan.

Yes, TODAY IS THE DEADLINE. I'd PMed those contestants whose entries weren't in yet and gave them this deadline instead; I must've forgotten to edit it on the title post.

[Strangel]

Scrambling! Lol

-tosses out in-progress-neighborhood folders and tosses in CJ's neighborhood folder-

[ChickenSensei]

I probably will never say this again, but yay for having strep throat I had a day off today, and although I napped most of the day, I got some of my entry done too. I present to you... May Belle goes to school!

Picture 1, School Picture Day (close up)

Hi everybody! I'm back again! This time, I'm going to tell you ALL about my school, Sunnybrook Elementary, where I'm in first grade!

That picture of me was on school picture day, where a lady came to my school and took pictures of every kid! I thought she was really annoying, though! She told me to "Put your head up more, honey" and "A little foward please?" Geez! That lady was very pickely-finnicky!

Picture 2, Cartwheels (full body shot)

This is me, doing cartwheels at recess with my bestest friend, Heather! And there's my teacher, Ms. Camil! She's super-duper nice, and she always wears pretty dresses to school! She teaches me all of my subjects except for gym. In gym, we get taught by this grouchy old guy, Mr. Rodneys. He's all wrinkly looking!

I love doing cartwheels, so Ms. Camil can see what a good cartwheeler I am! I think Heather is jealous, because all she can do are somersaults!

Picture 3, Classroom

Ms. Camil says that kids like me and my classmates shouldn't be stuck inside the dirty rotten classroom, so she teaches us outside on days when the weather is good, and she only teaches us inside when the weather is really very very very bad.

I love school because I'm always outside! I love to play outside, draw on the sidewalk with chalk (I draw pretty princesses and handsome princes!) and hear the birds sing!

...but I hate math. Math is icky!

Picture 4, Gossiping

At recess (and sometimes in class) me and Heather LOVE to gossip! Did you know that Jake likes Samantha, but Samantha likes Bobby? I don't know why Samantha would like Bobby, though. He's icky and he picks his nose! EWWW!

Picture 5, Fishing for Butterflies

During the springtime, I love to catch butterflies in my glass jars! Ms. Camil lets me keep them, but she says I shouldn't keep them for too long, because the butterfly will die! My favourite kind of butterfly is a monniarch butterfly!

FIN!

[tbpear16]

Brava! And I love how May Belle says things wrong.

And I'm cheering for ya, Strangel!! ^_^

[Strangel]

It's taking forever... LOL

I've got one pic ready!

[tbpear16]

I say I have one more hour before I hit the hay. Hopefully you'll get it in soon!


...I just saw Psycho for the first time.
*sits, rocking in corner* No motels, no Norman, no motels... *shifty*

[Strangel]

My sister and I go to a special school for girls, it costs more but Daddy likes the idea of us going to private school, he says it means when we grow up we'll make more money and have a better foundation. Our house has a foundation.. I'm not sure I want one.



Anyway, I don't mind going to school. I especially like the ride TO school. The bus driver has a lot of students that go to public school and there's only a few of us that go to different private schools so she picks up all us and takes us to our schools first, then goes back for the public school people. I asked Georgia (she goes to the school next door to ours) why there's two different kinds of school, but she didn't know.



My teacher, Miss Evans, calls me her little class chatterbox. She likes me, though. I can tell because she smiles when she says it and tells me to wait till class is over to talk. She teaches two classes.. Simlish and History. Did you know that sometimes whole new sections of the world are discovered? Today we were learning about Bluewater Village and how IT was discovered.



That's one of my other teachers, Mrs. Feehan. She teaches us about science and math. I do pretty good at math, but I still don't understand how come she has green skin and we don't..



I gotta go now, it's time for me to finish my homework. Awwww I hate working on penmanship!
