Our new roleplaying!

Hey, yeah, it's me; Gwen. It's kind of sad that I haven't been on blogger in over a month, and I forgot to mention Lily and Lanie's birthdays (April 21:Lily April 22:Lanie) so we have... well, at least two of us are fourteen now. (^-^;)" Heh heh...

Well, that aside, Kylie has introduced all of us to something new! :o You all at least vaguely remember that she likes anime and is very into Japanese culture, right? And last time I blogged, she was into one anime called Hetalia, right? Over the last month or so, she's gotten all of us(except of course, for Willow, but she somewhat plays along because she loves the character she's called!) to get into it as well. It's actually kind of fun, because we each can sort of "role play" in conversations now! ^-^ (Plus, we can hold "world conferences", which are really fun! :D)

So, here we go!

I'm Finland, mostly because I resemble Finland emotionally and physically! :D (plus, he's adorable!)
Willow is England, because she's pretty much a perfect representation of the character (not phsically, but otherwise...)
Lanie is America (because Lanie and Willow always fight)
Lily is Taiwan (she wanted to be Vietnam, but Taiwan was closer to her personality)
Kirsten is Sweden (But only because she's Swedish. She wanted to be Sweden, and since she's the oldest, nobody protested; even though she's not really like him at all.)
Elizabeth is Liechtenstein (she thought she was adorable, so...)
Felicity is The Principality of Wy(Australian micronation) because Wy's totally AWESOME (and an artist).
Chrissa is KugelMugel (a micronation in Austria owned by an artist. The whole country is the guy's house, which is a pretty awesome sphere. Yes, his house is a sphere! X3)
Kylie is Ladonia, the Swedish internet micronation (yeah, it has a tiny little patch of land in Sweden, but the country is based online! :o) because she's more high-tech than any of us
Hollie is Prussia (she wouldn't take "no" for an answer, so we all let her be Prussia... T^T)
Sonali is Korea (such a perfect fit for her...)
Kanani is Seychelles (nuff said)

As far as that matter is concerned, that's what we do! ^-^ We have kind of gotten into role-playing(and, for some of us, cosplaying*) now. It's really fun! I should beg Miranda (who is our Canada. She's surprisingly quiet and polite in real life, not like how you guys probably see her as!) to take pictures of us role playing and having a mini anime convention sometime...

But alas, right now... :'( We're all in our boxes in a closet. DX I just got out of mine to blog is all. But don't worry, we'll be taken out again really soon! Miranda just had to clean her room is all! Eheheh... (^_^;)" (yeah, I'm worried, too)

~Gwen~

*Cosplaying is where people dress up as characters from anime or manga.

(Miranda's Note: I'm actually considering cosplaying as the female version of Canada sometime soon, because I really do look a lot like her! ^-^)

Leap Day...

Oh my. Is it Leap Day already?

Now that we(us dolls. d:) think about it, we haven't posted since, like, New Years day. DX WE'RE SOOO SORRY!!! Also, you wanna know what we've been doing?

Well, since there's twelve of us, I'll(the others left... now it's just me, Gwen) just list it out...

Kirsten: She's currently visiting her family back in Sweden. She invited me and Elizabeth to come with her, but, Sonali says Swedes are super scary(a real stereotype) so we declined...

Elizabeth: Nobody knows... I never see her anymore... But, Felicity told me that she's been sewing some stuff in her room secretly and starting a business... O.O

Felicity: She's been modeling(really shocking to me!) and has started acting. This REALLY, like, seriously surprised us all, but she's pretty fricking amazing.

Chrissa: Umm... mostly sleeping and skipping school and texting I don't know who.

Sonali: TOTALLY stalking Liberty Jane clothing and asking Miranda if she can order some clothes... :\ How typical of her.

Me: I've been being really quiet and playing with/ posing my mini Rebecca and reading. Right now, I'm reading the Hunger Games entirely upon Felicity's request. ;)

Lily: She's been doing what she does best. Being friends with everyone(excluding Willow, who wishes Lily to die. O.O) and tutoring Sonali in Algebra so she totally doesn't fail eighth grade.

Lanie: Well, Lanie has been trying to get Willow to be more sociable and at LEAST a little less hateful towards Lily. Oh, and Lanie's also being pushed around by/getting "taught" by Willow, since Willow's just like that.

Hollie: Don't get scared by this, but she found a doll-sized Star Wars gun, and she's been shooting everyone with it. And she also found a sword and is trying to be a ninja like Kylie... DX (Oh, the pain... t.)

Kanani: She's visiting her family and friends back home in Hawaii right now. She's also planning on visiting India, where her dad(Sonali's uncle) grew up. In other words, she'll be gone for the next few months. DX I miss her dearly... She's my best friend, so I'm just glad she can spend Miranda's next birthday with us for sure, even though it's in June. :'(

Willow: She's doing what she usually does. Read, chastise Lanie, yell at Lily, and scoff at everyone else's inferior minds. :( She's really mean, I'll have you all know... But, maybe it's because she lacks in social skills and is very ethnocentric... ?

Kylie: Kylie pretty much always reads manga and watches anime, so there's no surprise there... But, since she's like what Miranda has become in the past eigt or so months, right now she's in love with Hetalia...

Well, uhh... that's all I could think of to mention... So, I'll just document what my "sisters" and actual sister are saying/doing right now...


Hollie: AGGHHH!!! I CAN'T GET THE SWORD MOTIONS RIGHT!!! DX
Kylie: Hey, I can help you use that... I AM a ninja, I'll have you know...
Willow: *eye roll* My gosh(she said a different word, but I won't use it) you two! Pipe down! I'm trying to read The Odessy!
Lily: Okay, calm down Willow. They're just doing what they usually do-
Willow: WELL I WON'T HAVE IT! *gets out of chair* THEY'VE BEEN GOING ON LIKE THIS FOR THREE HOURS, AND I'M SICK OF IT!!!
Me: O.O Oh my...
Sonali: *texting Chrissa about clothes* OMG yay! That is SOOO CUUUTE!!! I N-E-E-D that dress! X3
Chrissa: Totally! I should get the pink one, right??? *fangirly squeal*
Willow: YOU'RE RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER!!! WHY DON'T YOU TRY SPEAKING?!?!?!
Hollie: OHH!!! So THAT'S how you hold it!! I thought it was like European swords or something! dx
Kylie: Yeah, that's a typical mistake... It's alright, though.
Lanie: Umm... Would you like to play a board game with me, Felicity?
Felicity: Nah... I have to get my hair done for my next photo shoot...
Me: *thinking* I'm not really sure what to say...
Lily: Sonali, do you need help with your Algebra homework again? :)
Willow: Oh shut your trap, you useless-
Lanie: HEEYYY, bad Willow! What did I tell you about yelling at people?!?!
Willow: >:( *grumbles* But I don't see why a person with such moronic tendencies should tutor an even LESS intelligent being about something they're no good at themselves...
Chrissa: Yo, Willow! Just because you're the equivalent of a Harvard graduate and you're only thirteen does NOT mean you can call Lily a moron!
Sonali: Yeah! And if you're going to call anyone stupid, it should TOTALLY be Chrissa! She didn't even know how to tie er shoes until she was twelve!
Chrissa: Yeah! I don't see why you would call Lily a-- HEY!!! YOU'RE A JERK, SONALI!!!
Sonali: XD
*phone rings*
Me: Oh, I'll get it!
Kylie: So, Hollie, did I tell you about the new anime I've been watching?
Me: Hello? Oh, yeah, it's me. Did you want to talk to her? Ohh... She's in Sweden right now. Huh? Can I take a message? Yeah, I guess so... Okay... Wait, she has a cell phone. Why don't you just call her? Oh, her phone number is--
Hollie: Oh, really?!?! Would you say I'm like Poland?! *talking to Kylie*
Kylie: Yeah, I guess so... I remind myself of Sealand, but whatever...
Lily: YOU JERK!!! WHY DO YOU ALWAYS YELL AT ME WHEN I'M TRYING TO BE POLITE TO YOU?!?!
Willow: Because I hate you, you useless twit! Now if you'll excuse me, I have a book that won't be reading itself, you know!
*all around chaos and arguing continues*

And this is what our day looks like when Miranda's at school. ^_^

~Gwen~

Omg! CHRISTMAS!!! :D

Okay. So this year, so far, we haven't done ANYTHING for Christmas yet. D: Wow. We fail. BUT, we ARE all invited to Willow's Christmas party, and she WILL have a tree up for the occasion, but other than that, we've done NOTHING.

You know, speaking of that, I think I'll go more "in depth" on the topic. All of us were invited(except for Kylie, Sonali, Kanani, and Hollie. Mostly because Willow thought they were all "too rowdy for a formal occassion". This IS Willow were're talking about, here!) but we need to wear "fancy" dresses, but NOT wear ballgowns. The last part excludes Felicity and Elizabeth, because they ALWAYS wear gowns for formal occassions. o_0

Well, it's on Christmas Eve, and it goes from 7 o'clock to midnight, and there will be a "Secret Santa" gift exchange at midnight. Then we go to bed. XD

Oh, and for those who are wondering, there WILL be a photostory on Picasa. :D

I'm SUPPOSED to get a present for Lanie, but even though I've known her for a year and a half, I don't really know WHAT to give her. Any suggestions? I'll probably just buy her a new iPod, because her blue nano broke. :( I think I'll buy her either another blue one pre-loaded with all the songs from her old one(and some new favourites of hers she never got around to buying. ;D) or a green one with the same add-ons. :D What do YOU think? I'll need to make sure that Hollie gets her present for Chrissa(yeah, even though some dolls weren't invited, they can DO the gift exchange if they send in a present to give with another guest. Holli's giving me her present to Chrissa.) but it SHOULD be easy to get; considering we already HAVE some new art supplies to give her.

Willow's getting a present from Chrissa, Chrissa's getting a present from Hollie, Hollie's getting a present from Lanie, Lanie's getting a present from me, I'm getting a present from Felicity, Felicity's getting a present from Kylie, Kylie's getting a present from Kanani, Kanani's getting a present from Kirsten, Kirsten's getting a present from Sonali, Sonali's getting a present from Lily, Lily's getting a present from Elizabeth, and Elizabeth is getting a present from Willow.

How do I know who's getting something for whom? Well, Miranda dropped her "master list" on the floor, and while I picked it up and put it back on her desk, I KIND OF looked at the names... ;)

I wonder what the party is going to be like... Willow MAY be a jerk sometimes(okay, REALLY more often than not) but she DOES know how to throw a party. :D

Personally, I want an iPod touch for Christmas, but what do YOU want?

~Gwen

Our first debate in months!!! :o

Should the dolls in our family be allowed to be older than thirteen?
Kanani: I think that's a very legit argument, and we should be allowed to be at LEAST fourteen.
Kirtsen: I'm seventeen...
Gwen: I do NOT want to see Hollie at fourteen!!! D:
Hollie: I wanna drive!!!
Gwen: ...
Sonali: Well, I want a boyfriend, and to be a teenager...
Kirtsen: Sonali, you're turning thirteen this summer! Wait, don't you already HAVE a boyfriend?
Sonali: Oh yeah...
Chrissa: ANYway, I think we should be allowed to be as old as we like, with a maximum age being seventeen.
Elizabeth: Wouldn't Lissie and I be over 170 years old?
Felicity: I don't think we're going by that...
Lily: WHY didn't you tell me we were debating again earlier?!?!?
Lanie: YEAH! We were playing with Miranda's ipod!
Miranda: WHAT?!?!?
Lanie: Yeah, it died... :(
Miranda: :( / >:(
Lily: --_--
Kirsten: So...
Gwen: What?
Kirsten: Seventeen's the limit?
(Everybody but Sonali): Sure! Why not?!
Sonali: But I want to move out!
(Glares)
Sonali: FINE!!!


~(argument documented by Miranda)

Woah.

Excitement is brewing amongst the whispers and giggles of us dolls. We saw a sign in our room that said there was a PROM coming up soon! :D Sonali and Chrissa absolutely FLIPPED OUT, and I(Gwen) didn't really care. In fact, I dreaded it. You see, Hollie and Felicity persuaded me to go make fun of all the "stupid" boys at the prom! I don't really know what I'm going to wear, but I know Chrissa and Sonali will probably get some dresses made by Miranda. Lily was asked by Caleb(her BF) to go, and she freaked out, too. Lily decided she'll wear one of her old dresses, so she doesn't really care about whether or not she impresses Caleb. I mean hey, we're all dolls here! There's nothing different really! We're all made of cloth, vinyl, stuffing, and plastic! Nothing special! Well... except for our personalities. But you already knew that, didn't you?

Basically, we're all prepping for Friday night. Willow's still on her cruise, and she'll miss the prom(but obviously won't care) She attempted an email about where she went(Thailand, Indonesia, and Australia, (where she met a girl our age named Pippa Goodfellow.)), but she typed it like a formal letter... I think she needs to open up a little more...

~Gwen(with maybe a perspective from the other dolls.)

Updates on our doll-ish lives...

Okay. For my FIRST update, I will mention that in less than a MONTH, Willow will be in our family of un-related dolls. :D Yay. Second of all, Sonali had her hair straightened using the hot water method. Miranda says she likes it both ways, but Kanani(her cousin) says she prefers which ever one is natural. Sonali scoffed and told her to get with the times. Kanani was offended by that...

Kirsten had her hair SLIGHTLY trimmed, you know, to get rid of the frazzled ends.

Chrissa has come back to 'normal' after her incidenta month ago.

Miranda has planned her WHOLE life out already, and she's even figured out which house style she'll buy.

Gwen has done nothing new.

Kanani got a sweet bedroom with storage.

Lily is going to be an actor when she grows up.

Lanie is kind of sad that her sister is coming to stay with us.

Felicity has done nothing new.

Elizabeth has done nothing new.

Hollie has decided that she will begin dating along with the rest of her un-related family consisting of dolls.

Yeah, that's about it...

~Miranda and her dolls

TAGGED! :D

Earlier on Phoebe's 100th post, she tagged us! Not Miranda, but the dolls here! Sooo... in commemoration of this, WE will EACH post 1 thing about ourselves, so that means we will write TEN random facts! :D

Hollie: I am a TOTAL bookworm, and I envy Gwen, because she's going to get a indle soon.

Gwen: My birthday is Pi day.

Lily: I am a girly tomboy. I'm not TOO girly, but I like to sometimes get down and dirty.

Lanie: Lily and I were BFF'S before I left the factroy, because we were pen pals.

Sonali: I had a dream where I was Scrooge, and I went through the Christmas thingy with seeing ghosts. It was fun. :)

Kirsten: Elizabeth and I are sisters, which is weird because there is 80 years between our eras

Elizabeth: I LOVE America, but I HATE American pie.

Felicity: I have NOT been a dynamic character like the rest of my doll buddies.

Chrissa: There was a period of time where I was emo.

Mini Rebbecca: I am minifying, but I LOVE to read big doll-sized books, like my meet book. It also took Miranda one hour to get me re-dressed becasue my thumb was stuck in my sleeve.

Welllll.... I don't tag anyone, because that requires work, and effort; and THAT requires energy. Something Miranda and all of us don't currently have. :(

~Miranda(who typed) and her dolls

~Miranda and her wonderful dolls

The day has come. D:

Yes. Our other doll blogs(not Polka dot or Positively) are being shut down within the month. We are sorry, but six blogs has gotten to Miranda, and she feels that dolls should SHARE a blog, not have individual blogs. It's too much! What would happen if Phoebe got each of her dolls blogs? Chaos. Absolute chaos. For ANYONE, 26 blogs would inhale their social life, which NOBODY except for 45 year old creepers living in their mom's basement would want that to happen! I am sorry if I just named you. D:

~Miranda and her(smart and adorable)dolls

How horribly wrong yesterday was...

We lost the light for the photo story of the party yesterday, because Miranda's camera died at the last second. Next, there were SO many pictures taken, that the camera over-heated! Also, Felicity read this blog and knew about the party. Lastly, almost everyone left, stormed off, or was hit in the face. Felicity had an allergic reaction to the store-bought apple pie, and she had to be rushed to the hospital, since this was her first reaction. So, that's how the most deserving thirteen year old doll got the worst birthday party in the history of the world!

If you would like to view the photo-story, then explain to me how you load a Picasa album- Miranda got stuck! D:

~Miranda's dolls

Today is a special day!

If you have read my sister's blogs, you'll know today is Felicity's birthday! So, her agenda for today is to get her hair re-curled, pick out some nice outfits at Elizabeth's dress shop, and hang with Lanie! Of course, this WILL change, considering everyone has an outfit, but she doesn't know it, and after she gets her hair done, Lanie will tell Lissie that she forgot something at home. Lanie will lead the birthday girl home, where she has her surprise party!

Remember, this is all happening RIGHT NOW, so we may not blog for a while!!! :D

~Lily

Felicity's b-day plan!

If you read all of my "sister's" blogs, you'll know that tomorrow is Felicity's birthday! Now, I have the plan!
...
...
...
Okay, so I'll lead Felicity to the mall for a while, where I pretend to have forgotten today is her birthday.
Then, the party is officially set up; I mean the tables are placed and treats set out.
I lead Felicity home, where we pretend to be asleep, and we make snoring sounds from the party room.
We walk in together, I flip on the lights, and BOOM! She's a princess for the day!
...
...
...
Okay, not a princess, but she WILL be the center of attention for the day!!! :D

~Lanie

Happy Birthday, Felicity!!!

It seems like just yesterday our Felicity was pulled out of the box by our owner, Miranda, and now she's a teenager. Well, as of tomorrow. We would like to celebrate this by telling you ALLL about our sweet doll! :D


Favorite colour: purple.
Funny story: When Miranda took Felicity into American Girl Place Chicago for her tenth birthday, Felicity lost her hat! She looked EVERYWHERE, but couldn't find it! After about twenty minutes, Miranda found her hat in the tiny plastic box near the front of the store that was the lost and found!
Pet: The black horse that we've had for years, but still haven't named.
Best Friends: Elizabeth, Kirsten, and Hollie
Least favorite food: raspberries.
Favorite food: strawberries/ watermelon

Her least favorite of my dolls: SONALI!!!

Felicity is getting her hair re-curled for her party tomorrow, even though it's a surprise party! She doesn't think we knew it was her birthday tomorrow, but we know!

Overall, Happy birthday, Felicity! ;D

~Miranda's dolls (not including the birthday girl)

Doll occupations!

Me- a model, singer, and dancer

P.S. Miranda also wants to be a photographer!!! :D

~Lily

Hehehe... I'm posting PICTURES!!!

Marble in Repose. Okay, maybe not in REPOSE, but maybe just a STILL life!

This is, by far, my favorite picture of the same marble.

Okay. Do you sense a theme, here?

Yup. I like marbles; as you can see.

Prettyfulness. :D

Which one do YOU like the best?!?!?! :D

~Hollie, Gwen, Kirsten, Felicity, Elizabeth, and Miranda

Hollie: NO! PUT "THE DOLLS!!!"

Miranda: FINE!!!

~The dolls

Alone.

Kanani left. She wasn't for real. She wanted to boost my confidence and trust so she could ruin my life. Everyone is happy. But me. Lanie found out about a nature program in AGPPA that saves the rain forest. Sonali is having fun with Nathan. Kirsten just bought a kindle, and she's at a coffee shop to buy books on Amazon with their free Internet connection. Gwen and Hollie are at a singing competition in the auditorium. Chrissa is outside crying her eyes out. Felicity and Elizabeth are taking the offer of free horse riding at school. I'm sitting here. all alone. No one to talk to but my broken heart. As I'm typing, I'm pulling the petals of a daisy. Just pulling them out; not saying anything, not looking at anything. Just mindlessly pulling off petals, occasionally watching them fall from my top bunk to the floor. The occasional tear streamed down my cheek. This is life. Spent alone.

"How's it going, Lily?" A familiar, soft voice coaxed.

I didn't react. I just continued pulling out petals.
The girl jumped up onto my bed and sat down next to me.

"Okay. What's wrong?" Gwen's deep brown eyes pierced the silence.
"I'm alone." I managed to squeak out. The tears got faster.
"No you're not. I'm here, too." Gwen replied.
"Be alone somewhere else."
"If it makes you feel better, Hollie's singing SUCKED, and it's hilarious. Do you want to watch her sing?"
"DID YOU NOT HEAR ME?! GO. AWAY!!!" I yelled at her.

Gwen swiftly got up, and hopped off my bed. Her tears fell softly to the floor. I grabbed my pillow and buried my face in it. The one person who I thought understood me other than Lanie, had betrayed me. How could Kanani do this to me? I let her stay with us while she was here, and she did THAT to me?!

Where did the respectful, bright girl I thought I knew go? How could she have stole something of that much importance from me? Why does the world seem to turn on me like this?

Questions need answers, like I need a true friend.

~Lily

My new life at AGPPA Part four

I took into consideration that there were bunk beds. It suddenly hit me: I know what I'm going to do!



Meanwhile, Sonali and Kanani were arguing.

"Why can't I have THAT bunk? It's just the same as the others!" Kanani argued.

"Well, if it's 'just the same as the others,' then take THAT bunk. I like the sheets on this bunk MUCH better than those Hot pink ones." Sonali retorted.

"Yes, but Kirsten already has a bunk on that bunk bed, and Lily and I BOTH want to share a bunk bed! So YOU go to THAT bunk. OVER. THERE!"

"UGGHHH! YOU'RE SO DIFFICULT!!!" Sonali complained. She trudged over to the other bunk bed, and threw her pink suitcase on it. Sonali was defeated! Kanani, who will one day be Sonali's older cousin; had won.

The sheets on this bunk bed were an ocean blue, and they complimented both of our eyes. As I found out over the summer, most dolls look good in ocean blue. Oh, and while I'm at it, I learned nothing. I had forgotten what I was going to do. That sucks.

"All students attending AGPPA please report to the campus. That'll be all." A lady with a southern accent spoke into the intercom. Oh, and like my old school, boys attend here too. Good for dating.

"Well, that's us! Well, I'm going to be a student teacher there, so I guess that's YOU, not ME." Kirsten announced.

"So, do you think the school will be like our old school, Lanie?" I asked.

"Maybe. It still has boys, but I don't think I'll recognize anyone else. Of course, some people still are the same dolls. One doll I know without personally meeting is Chrissa."

"THE Chrissa?!?! The one who writes Chrissa my Love?!?" That's one of my FAVORITE blogs!

"Yup. Oh, and there's also Sonali, Prudence, Charity, and Chrissa's other sisters. Oh, and Rebbecca, Julie, Julia, and Elizabeth go there, too."

"OH MY JELLY!!!"

We walked over there, but halway through, we found a campus bus that takes students to and from there beach houses. Sweetness.

"Hi, I'm Rose. I just came here from Oklahoma. Where are you from?" This girl, apparently named Rose, asked me.

"My name is Lily, and I'm not allowed by my owner to say where I'm from."

"Oh. Well, at least you have an owner. I came here because AG might turn me into a GOTY." Rose replied.

Wow. I'm seeing a possible future GOTY! IN ACTION! I MAY be part of her life in her book! SWEET!

Rose had curly strawberry blond hair and grey blue eyes. I have to admit, she looks pretty nice.

"So, do you have a boyfriend?" I asked.

"Yeah, his names Noan. He's from Sweden. He's ALSO a foreign exchange student." Rose explained.

Wow. This school is DIVERSE!

"Who're you?!" Sonali asked this boy.

"I'm Nathan, I'm from New Hampshire. Who are you?"

"My name is Sonali, and, I don't really want to go here."

"Oh. Well, I like your hair. It's REALLY long and pretty." Nathan told Sonali.

"Wow, um, thanks. I like your eyes, I have a thing for blue-grey."

Will Sonali have a boyfriend?!?! Lucky. I feel sorry for Nathan. He's into SONALI.

My new life at AGPPA Part three

When I woke up, Lanie was poking my shoulder telling me something. I flicked her on the shoulder.

"Ow! Why did you do that, Lily?"
"I'm trying to sleep!" I growled.
"Well, I just wanted to tell you that the plane's landing! You slept through the five hour flight, and you missed watching a movie with an episode of 'The Office' following it."

Sure enough, the plane was getting close to the ground, and I braced for impact. When we hit the ground, the plane was very shaky, and I flashed back to being in that suitcase. I was thrown around, it was drafty, and I was cold.

"Please remain seated until the plane has come to a complete stop and has pulled up to gate 9." The flight attendant spoke.

I gathered up my ipod cord, checked on Hollie, who was fine, and started to stretch. I wiped the sleep out of my eyes, and peered out the window. It was brighter than any light I had seen before. Well, except for the light in the hotel that was in California.

Time passed.

"So, did you go swimming in California, Lily?" Kanani asked me.
"Yes, but it was kinda cold."
"Well, when did you go there?"
"End of July."
"But that's the fricken hottest month of the year!"
"Yes, and I couldn't leave the hotel without a sweater."

More time passed.

We left the plane, and the gate. The floors were a shiny silvery gold. Wait, there's Kanani, again!

"Wait, are you going to AGPPA too?" She asked me.
"Yeah! Wait, YOU'RE GOING THERE TOO?!?!" This. Is. AWESOME!!!

We chatted as we left the terminal. It was interesting; she had been in Hawaii her whole life after American Girl had sent her there to get a life. Literally. That's what American Girl does to Girl of the year dolls. They make a test doll, send her to her hometown, leave her for a year, and take her back. Then she describes her life, and an author writes a story.

"Okay, do we have everyone? There's me, Sonali, Gwen, Chrissa, Elizabeth, Felicity, Lanie, Lily, Hollie, and Kanani. Wait, we don't have a Kanani!" Kirsten announced.

"Well, she's going to AGPPA too, and she doesn't have a family." I explained.

"Fine. You can stay with us. Miranda DID say she may adopt you, so you might as well get to know our family." Kirsten answered.

"YAY! THANK YOU KIRSTEN!" Kanani ran up and embraced Kirsten. Some people stared.

Time passed. Again.

After a drive through the desert.... We reached San Diego.

We pulled up to a pretty secluded beach house. A few shells littered the beach, along with REAL litter. Kanani vowed she would clean up the trash tomorrow.

"So, here we are! I guess we're all sharing a beach house, and there's three sets of bunk beds and two bedrooms. The house sleeps ten. Oh, well that's perfect with Kanani here!" Kirsten announced. She announces everything!"

The house was originally an ocean blue, but it was sun bleached, so it looked pale blue.

Inside, there was a sitting room with a couch, two wing back chars, and a coffee table. Next to that room, there was a study room, a bunk bed room that sleeps six girls, and a bedroom. On the other end of the room, there was a doorway that led to the master bedroom. Kirsten unlocked the rooms, and there was a mad dash to claim beds. Sonali hit me in the thigh.

"KANANI! LET'S GRAB A BUNK BED WHILE WE CAN!" I tried to shout over all the commotion.

"OKAY! BUT I WOULD PREFER HAVING A BOTTOM BUNK!"
"GOOD, I LIKE THE TOP BUNK, ANYWAY!"

We got settled in, put our sheets on our beds, and chatted.That's at the most current thing, and I'll post more later!

My new life at AGPPA Part two

Okay, I'm not QUITE on the plane, but by the end of this post, I will be!

"Everyone, stick together! We're going to do the buddy system with each other. I will stay especially close with Sonali and Gwen. We're buddies. Chrissa, Elizabeth and Felicity are buddies. That means Lanie, Lily, and Hollie are buddies." Kirsten explained.

UGGHH! I'm with HOLLIE! She won't shut up! And she gets the most attention right now, and I hate that! One could even say that I'm jealous...

When we got to the airport security section, we were traveling together. I mean all three groups. When we came out, there were three of us. WHAT HAPPENED?!?! Oh, wait a second. They're right behind us. Never mind! But, Lanie practically RAN to every single dog that was in a travel cage. I needed to put HER in a travel cage! Well, we didn't. Lanie's my best friend, so I would NEVER do that to her!


We're not done security. We still have to take off our shoes and get them scanned with our carry on bags.

"Well Lanie, we're ALMOST done! I went to California before, and this is the part where we go to the gate!" I explained. Actually, I was in a SUITCASE that took me to California.

Kirsten's back. "Is everyone with their buddies? Good! Now, come up to me and get your tickets! Our gate is number 15, in terminal five."

"I got my ticket! YAY! It's blue!" It was blue with bright yellow horizontal stripes. It was pretty.

"So, how was it in California? Isn't there an AG Place there? Did you meet new people? How was the food? Did you go to different places? How-" I cut Hollie off.

"HOLLIE! SHUT UP! We have to get all the way across the airport in FIVE MINUTES! We don't have time to talk!" Man, now I feel bad!

We went silently but swiftly through the airport, and we finally reached terminal five. Soon enough, we reached gate fifteen. I wanted food. Lanie bought some Tacos at Taco Bell. We ate. We chatted. Okay, we didn't chat, but Hollie sniffled in sadness a little. The seats had fake leather that was peeling from the seats, and it was quite uncomfortable, so I just stood up. A Kanani walked by, and we had a friendly chat. She was going to AGPPA, too!

"First class and business class will now be boarding, first class and business class will now be boarding." The lady spoke into the intercom. That was us! First class! We get reclining seats! YAY!

"Isn't that us? First class?" Sonali questioned.

"Check your ticket." I told her.

"Oh! Thanks, Lily! So, we're boarding now, right?"

"Last call for first class and business class." The intercom lady spoke.

We got up and walked over to the ticket scanner. It was cool!

"Okay, girls! You're all set! Have fun in California!" Another airport worker told us. Her smile was faker than an inflatable turkey. Trust me, I would know.

The pathway to the plane was nice. But, the end of it had a part where if you dropped anything, it would fall to the ground and get crushed by the plane when it started to move.

I found our seats, I had a window seat and Lanie had a middle seat. Hollie had an aisle seat next to Lanie. Poor Lanie. My view was practically black, with a little bit of rising sun. Pretty.

"OOH! What does THIS button do?" Hollie yelled. Her seat fell backwards. It was hilarious! "Okay, that's NOT a good button to press!"

"So, Lily, how did you like California?" Lanie asked me.

"Well, to be honest, I had to stay in the hotel all day with Miranda while her dad was working."

I plugged in my ipod, and my favorite song, Soul Sister, started to play. I tapped my finger on the seat a little. I fell asleep. Until the plane started taxiing. Taxiing is when the plane moves to the runway. I woke up and blurted out, "PUDDING!" People stared.

Now the plane started to get faster. I got a little more nervous. Okay, now we were an inch higher, now a yard, now thirty yards. Okay, I'm feeling a little sick. By now we were about a mile off the ground, then my ears popped. I shoved a stick of gum in my mouth. My ears were better. Yep, chewing gum makes your ears not pop. I was hyperventilating. Hollie was sleeping. Lanie was lip singing to Fireflies on her sapphire blue ipod. I decided I was tired, and I started to recline my seat, when someone complained.

"Hey, I'm trying to eat back here, even though airplane food sucks, so can you not recline so much?" A Hawaiian girl complained.

I turned around
"Wait, did we meet before?" I asked.
"Yeah! You're Lily, right?"
"The one and only! You're Kanani, right?"
"Yep!"

We chatted for a LONG time. She was really cool! In fact, she doesn't have a family, so she's moving to AGPPA, like us. In fact, I called Miranda at the gate, and she may ADOPT my new friend Kanani! YAY!

My new life at AGPPA Part one.

"Lily, hurry up! the plane leaves in two hours!" Kirsten screeched at me. Really, three A.M. seems a little excessive for a 12 year old doll to get up in the morning, don't you think?



"I'll be down in five minutes! Yeesh!"

So, I learned last night that the school is across the country. California, actually! The plane leaves at five, so I'm 'late' according to Kirsten. Oh, and Kirsten is like my mom. She tells EVERYONE in the house what to do. It makes sense, though. She's the only one of us that can drive. Legally, that is!



"Lily, on the double! Everyone else in this house is eating breakfast! We're WAITING for YOU!"

"I'm just doing my hair! Give me a moment!"

"Do your hair on the plane!"

"But, then I won't look good for airport security!" That's me, for ya! Self-absorbed.

"Fine! But don't come crying to me when you're forced to eat a pop-tart before we leave!" Yeah, when Miranda went to California, she was late to breakfast, and her dad forced her to take a pop-tart. Then, she didn't finish it, so she put it in her carry-on bag. Her stuff then had cookies and cream goop on it.



"WE'RE LEAVING IN TWO MINUTES, LILY! HURRY UP!" You could hear Kirsten from the moon!



"FINE! I'LL COME DOWNSTAIRS!" My footsteps thumped down the stairs. I hope there are no six year old kids on the plane. I HATE little kids!



"ONE MIN- oh. here's your breakfast."

"Hey, Lily! Can you BELIEVE we're going to California?" Hollie bursted at me. I braced for a ramble of how excited she was.

"Hollie, have some more toast to eat in the car. You'll starve!"

"Yes, mother." Hollie complained. We call Kirsten 'mother,' because she acts like one.



"OH! EVERYONE IN THE CAR!"

"What about Sonali?" Gwen ALWAYS mentions important stuff at the last minute.

"I'm right here!" Sonali was eating breakfast with her Hello Kitty pajama's still on.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!?" Kirsten boomed.

"Eating!" Sonali yelled. Hehehe, this is funny!



"WE'RE GOING ON A PLANE TO CALIFORNIA! GET UP, GET DRESSED, AND GET IN THE CAR!!!!" Man, Kirsten was UPSET!



"Why? I'm not going to California!"

"ALL OF US ARE!"

"Oh crab!"



Poor Sonali. This is pathetic. Even for her! I don't even know if she packed her pink flower suitcase!



"READY!" How long was that? TWO SECONDS?!?!

"Wow, uh... Get in the car! We've got thirty seconds to get in the car, and drive away! Our flight leaves at five!"

Man, and on New Years Eve, too. Well, school re-starts on Monday, so this makes sense. Well, the next time you hear from me, I'll be at the airport! Toodles!
