Brenna and I had a Chubbi Bunni contest! Except with Hubba Bubba gum, because we had no marshmellows. Also, it's a half an hour video, so for those of you who don't want to waste those 30 minutes of your life, I won. She kept taking the gum wad out of her mouth. :)

AWKO TACO TIME.

Haiiiiiiiiiii. (If you're family or close friends you probably read that in the annoying voice I usually say that in. :P) Long time no...post! Sorry I haven't been making any posts, I've just been really busy lately. *I lied* But, just to make up for it, I'm going to be posting a bunch of new vlogs today!! And I know how totally stoked you all are for that. So...yeah. I think this is one of the reasons I never make posts. I'llhave a bunch of stuff to tell you, but I'm too lazy to write it all down or I can never word it right so it makes sense. Or I'll tell you guys what I want to tell you, then, I have no idea what to say next or how to end the post and it just gets weird. So I think from now on I'm just going to end my posts really unexpectedly. Maybe mid sent-

KONY 2012!

EVERYONE!
Stop what you're doing and take a moment to watch this video.
Don't skim through the video, either.
Just take the half an hour out of your day and watch it.
THE FULL THING.
After watching, decide what you will do about it.
Continue on like you never watched,

Sorreh...

Hey everyone,
Sorry I STILL haven't posted the videos of our mall adventure yet,
It's just that I have NO idea where my phone cord went....
So I'm kind of totally out of luck until I find it :(
But oh well, when they're posted, they're posted!
And as for renovations,
WE'RE ALMOST DONE!
*Confetti machine*
It's about 2-3 weeks left and then we can move back upstairs :D
So I'm super excited.
Anyways, I'm bored and tired so I'm going to go sleep or something.
Bai! :P

Oodles of Noodles.

Hey everyone,
It's Cassidy :)
Today I went to the mall with my friends Brenna and Shelby...
It was certainly interesting.
Why might you ask?
Well, we decided to make some videos for this blog right here.
And what did we make the videos of?
Moohaha.
We went around asking totally random people what they would put on the world's greatest pizza (If you were part of my immediate family and friends, you would know the story behind "The world's greatest pizza".)
Of course, we asked told them we were making a segment for my blog, and we made sure if it was alright if we video taped them or not.
For those who said no, we just turned the camera away so it didn't get their faces c but so it still picked up what they were saying.
The video will be up just as soon as I get them off my phone and edit all our random crap out of it :P
So, we got plenty of weird looks and a few rude people, but all in all, it went extremely well.
See what I do for you guys? :P
And...
Next time I make a pizza...
I think I know of a few more toppings that I might add :P
Well, just wanted to let you guys know, and they'll all be up soon!
Hope you all are having a fabulous week :)
Love,
Cassidy

Writing prompt...

Hey everyone,
It's C-Dizzle in the hiz hoouuse!
Anyways, to the point.
Tonight I was going through some of the documents on my computer,
and I came across this writing prompt I did for my English a while back.
So, I did a bit of editing to it, and I figured I would share it with you guys!
It's a wee bit cheesy and really lame, but I did the best I was willing to do for an English assignment :P
But, before we get onto that,
I just wnated to give you guys a quick update on how the renovations are going.
They're pretty much done everything upstairs now (quick, I know!)...
I think all that's left is the mudding and taping, the painting, the flooring, then the appliances and such.
I really want to post a vlog on what upstairs looks like,
But I never got to do a before video,
so an after video wouldn't really be much help to those of you who haven't seen the inside of my house before...
But, I might as well go ahead a post a vlog anyways,
for you guys who HAVE seen my house.
I might not get the chance to do one at all, but I'll try when I'm able to.
SO, onto my writing prompt!
I know some parts are kind of repetitive, especially near the end,
but like I said,
I wasn't really looking to do anything special for my English :P
Sorry if any of you guys feel obligated to poke your eyes out with a fork or some other sharp object after reading this...
Also, please please PLEASE leave a comment if you can on what your opinion is on this.
HONESTY PLEASE!!
So, here it goes!
P.S. It's not in perfect paragraph form and most of the stuff that was supposed to be in italics isn't in italics anymore just because I copy and pasted it...

Atticus James sat on a bulky brown chair he had strategically placed in the front window of his massive, sprawling mansion where he could get just the perfect view of everything going on outside. He sat there, sipping a cup of tea intently, staring out at the gloomy streets, rain pouring down on them rapidly. Atticus couldn’t help but feel slightly lonely, having a mansion that size all to his self, with no one but a little Cheshire cat and an aged butler to keep him company.

Then, suddenly, something caught his eye. There, walking up the mansion’s large wooden steps, was a well groomed man with a look of business on his face. Atticus almost dropped his tea at the sight of him. After the man finally knocked at the door, Atticus answered it with more caution then that of a young girl home alone.

“Hello, sir. How are you doing today?” The man said.

“I’m fine, thank you. Might I ask what it is that you need?”

“My name is Liam Turner, sir, and I’m afraid I have some dreadful news for you.”

“Go on…” Atticus replied slowly.

“Your friend, Jacob Locking, passed away in a house fire the other night. No one knows exactly how it was caused, sir, but my deepest sympathies for your loss.” He told Atticus, with a sincere look in his eye. Atticus’ breath shortened and immediately a pain grew in his chest. Jacob Locking had been his best friend. They had known each other since birth and for their entire lives were never far apart from each other. “Sir, I’m sorry I had to tell you this. I know no one likes being told this kind of news.”

“Yes. Uh, thank you.” Atticus answered quietly. Closing the door without another word, he could do nothing but stand there trying to recollect his thoughts. He could literally feel his hear aching. He never even got to say goodbye to his friend…

Atticus slowly slouched down into a sitting position, not moving a step away from where he had answered the door. How could this be happening to him? What did he ever do to deserve such heart break?

“Sir?” The old butler began, who had only been standing there long enough to know something was wrong. “What’s bothering you?” Atticus couldn’t even begin to explain. How could he put his feelings into words?

“Do you remember Jacob?” Atticus choked back a sob.

“Well of course! Fine young fellow he is.”

“Fine young fellow he was. You see… Jacob passed the other night in a house fire. No one knows how it was caused. It just happened, I suppose.”

“I’m so sorry to hear that. If you need someone to talk to, sir, I’m here to listen.”

“Thank you, but I’m afraid that won’t be needed. Not that I don’t appreciate your offer, but if you don’t mind I’d like to have some time to myself.” With that, the butler gave a knowing nod and headed back up the stairs. When the butler was finally out of sight, tears began streaming down Atticus’ cheeks. He didn’t know how to deal with this kind of emotional pain. He just knew that he lost the person he was closest with and things would never be the same again.

Atticus sat there for many hours thinking of all the things that would be different. He sat there crying like a mother would after losing a child. He sat there, wishing that it could have been him that died in place of his friend.

After finally gathering up enough strength to stand up and walk back over to his window chair, he couldn’t help but wonder what to do with himself. Even after only short time things were already extremely different.

He looked over at his well-built mahogany desk. Suddenly, an idea came into his head. Why not write down his feelings on paper? He heard from many people that it helped. Walking over to the lovely detailed desk, he sat down on the uncomfortable wooden chair and picked up a paper and pen. Where could he even begin?

Dear Jacob,
I’m sort of new at this -

Atticus crumpled the paper up, pulling a fresh one out of one of the great drawers. He wiped his eyes, and picked the pen back up, his mind full of thoughts.

My dear friend,
I miss you so. You would not even believe the pain my heart is going through right now. I heard the news only a few hours ago, and I already feel like you’ve been gone for a lifetime. I couldn’t even begin to tell you how great of a loss this is for me. I suppose once in our life we must all lose something very dear to us, though.
I must say, I will miss all the things we did together, for if they had have been done without you, they wouldn’t have been the same. I will also miss all the things we didn’t get to do together, because memories are always more fun to make when you make them with a loved one. I can’t even express to you how much different life will be without you, Jacob.
I will greatly miss those rainy days we had together, playing chess in your cozy countryside home by the brightly lit fire. I’ll miss all the laughs we had together, all the jokes we cracked, all the late nights we had, going on about who we would fancy most to be our wives. All of that, Jacob, I will miss more than anyone will ever know. Because you were, are, and will be my best friend for as long as I am on this earth, and no one will be able to replace you, and nothing will compare to the memories we have together.
I will especially miss the way you would give me that look when we were young, when I would blab something in front of your parents that they weren’t supposed to know. Even the times after when you would give me my own playful beating for it, too.
I’m positive I’ll always remember the one you gave me after I blurted out that you were dating Jenny Anderson, and you got over a year’s punishment for not telling them yourself.
And Jacob, I can’t even tell you how much I will just miss you in yourself. The way you were just so into winging it, and the way you loved life. The way you never cared what anyone else ever thought about you, because you weren’t afraid to be yourself.
…The list could go on forever about what I miss now and will continue to miss about you, my best friend, but I’m afraid I would run out of paper eventually.
I also want to apologize for not being as great as a friend to you as I could have been, and for not being there at times when you needed me most. And I’m sorry for some of the choices I made with you, and for not apologizing sooner for all the times I did you wrong. But our friendship meant the world to me, and I’m also sorry for not telling you that as many times as I could have and should have.
But one thing I could never apologize to you enough for was not getting the chance to tell you goodbye, or for telling you how much all of this did and still does mean to me.
Our friendship was truly one in a million, and I will never be able to forgive myself for not telling you that before.
Everything we did together, everything we ever said, will stick with me forever, and I could not even tell you enough how grateful I am that you were willing to help me create those memories.
I will miss you a great deal, forever, Jacob, and I thank God for all the time he let us spend with one another.
With all my most sincere love,
Atticus James.

Lindsay!

Hey everyone,
C-Dizzle here! :D
Right now I'm in Lindsay, which is a small town about an hour away from Peterborough, and about 4 and a half to 5 hours from where I live.
We`re here for two reasons:
1) My aaawwwwesooome grandma lives in Lindsay and we were well over due for a visit!
2) This week, the workers at our house are going to be completely taking out the stairs leading to the basement (Where we`re currently bunking for a few months), and moving them to a different place. So who knows how many days that would take and how long it would be before they put something up (A ladder, large step stool, ect.) so we could go upstairs.
We left the Saturday (The 14th I think) and we`re going back home Friday the 20th.
So yeah, hopefully this week is enjoyable (Can`t see it not being that way),
And I`ll possibly talk to you guys again this week.
If not, I hope you guys have a fantabulawesome week and I`ll be making a post again sometime soon!!
Love,
Cassidy
