One whole year. I'm so glad we kept it up; Kellie and Megan, you guys have been such a blessing to me, and I'm honored to be part of this unique friendship. This is another one of the many reasons why Narnia is just all around awesome ;)
Right, so, on to the celebrations. I thought first I'd list the quirky cool words, plots, terms, and Skandarisms we've created over the course of the year (remind me if I've left some out)
DBF (dear blogging friend)
ack-chellay
Skedmund
The Potter Plot
Skandarific
Blunderkind
The Epic Battle of the Hair
Skantastic
Here is the Blunderkind I promised. The quality is kind of meh *scowls at Windows Movie Maker* but I'll type the plot underneath so you can get the idea of it:
So glasses dude is hitting on Susan and asks for her name. Susan is already in a relationship with Caspian, and so lies about her name. Peter, however, is still trying to get back at Caspian, so he keeps exposing Susan's lies. Susan gets fed up, calls Caspian, and kisses him in front of glasses dude. This doesn't really discourage him, so Caspian threatens him. Thu End.
Not the best, but practice makes perfect, eh?
Of course I had to go back and read the comments from that happy day the three of us decided to comment on Narnia Web. I must say, I was a bit immature, or overzealous, perhaps is a better word, but whichever word best describes crazy little 16-year-old me, I thank you two for putting up with me lol. I did say that I would post "Changed" and so now, one year later, I shall, even though my inner critic is giving me a fit. Shut up inner critic. You're a jerk.
Changed
V 1
Well here we are once more,
Right where we were before.
Circumstances are still the same
Here on the other side of the door.
Take a look back now
At what we've just come though;
That whole wide world behind us
Has made a difference in me and you.
CH 1
And now we've got the strength to make it here;
Our lessons learned to overcome our fears.
Though the wonders, victories, and pains,
I know that we've been changed.
V 2
The journey may've seemed long,
And at times we were wrong.
But what brought us here in the first place
Has been guiding us all along.
It's getting stronger now,
That calling deep within,
And though our quest has been fulfilled,
I have a feeling we'll go back again...
CH 2
Because we don't know what the future holds,
But promises have been fortold.
No, life won't stay the same,
And we may yet be changed.
BRIDGE:
A little bit braver,
A little bit stronger,
A better sense of purpose...
A little wiser,
A little bit kinder,
More willingness to trust.
Yes there were wonders, victories, and pains;
And life won't stay the same;
Yeah this is why we came,
All was for this change....
We've been changed.
Ta-da! I apologize for the absence of musical accompaniment, but if I waited until I got that together...well, you guys know the story lol. Which reminds me of a delightful thing I found on facebook that I wanted to share with you guys:
Well, while I'm posting facebook pictures, I suppose I'll go ahead and throw this one in here:
Welp, there you have it. Caroline Autumn ______ (to be announced on a later date)
Okay, I believe I've rambled on quite enough now. You guys are awesome and I love you and I thank God that I came across Narnia Web.
I must close this anniversary post with our signature sign-off:
<3 DBF OUT! <3
WOOOOO! Caroline it is! You are beautiful and that mask is pretty awesome too. Makes me want to go get one and we can be mask buddies haha. :) I also love your hair, I wanted to dye mine that color once, but I haven't gotten around to it yet lol, my mum says I should keep my natural hair.
ReplyDeleteI simple adore your blunderkind, it was great very funny. And indeed this is really emotional. Who would have guessed, that three unlikely narnia fans would meet on a website and become such great friends, it's a crazy miracle of sorts. Skantastic! I love your song, it's a beautiful poem. I can't wait to actual hear you sing it some day. :) Have a happy day!
Thank you :) Yes, I love the mask idea; that would be great. And I agree with your mum; your hair is a very nice color.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I'm glad you found it so.
And thank you about the song/poem. If I can find the video camera, I'll work towards getting some of my songs on here.
And I hope you have a happy day as well :)
