I doubt that any of you read this old thing anymore, but I just wanted to wish Jess, Winona, Sanja, and Bridget (and any possible followers/readers) a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! It's been too long. I hope you are all doing well and are enjoying life. If that isn't quite the case, well, here's to new beginnings!
Best Wishes,
Annica
P.S.
How excited are you all about The Fault in our Stars? I can't wait. It'll be brilliant!

Hello? Is anybody there?
Dear fellow NEA bloggers,
This is an apology letter to you from Sanja written in the very early hours of a Thursday in August.
I have neglected you all over the past while and I don't feel proud of this. In fact, I'm a little ashamed. I would say that it's all because I'm too busy though I know that I usually have my own ways to find time. I hope that you will be able to forgive me and that we can get this here blog show up and running once again.
So, now, what have I been up to all this time?? Well, dear friends, let me tell you.
First and foremost, I graduated from high school (WHAT?!) I kind of still can't believe it myself. We had our whole commencement aka diploma-receiving ceremony thing. I got some scholarship money. We went to a prom banquet thing. It was all good fun. And then school ended. Forever.
But I didn't have any time to be sad or nostalgic or whatever about it because next thing I knew, I had a summer job and was earning a good sum of money for college! (Here's to hoping I don't have to get a job while studying :P )
Then along with the bajillion other Harry Potter nerds, I watched it all end. Indeed, I donned my Gryffindor apparel for the amazing midnight showing of an incredible movie. It was an amazing experience, which I relived one week later. Unlike many others though, I don't feel like it's the end. To me, Harry Potter is immortal. It lasts forever. And though I bawled my eyes out during the movie, none of those tears were fore the so-called "end of childhood" or "end of an era" or whatever. They were tears for Severus, Fred, Lupin, Tonks, Mad Eye, Hedwig, Dobby, and all the others who were killed protecting the wizarding world from evil.
Oh, and then I woke up early and got a Pottermore account. My username's AurorRiver16, which is really cool to me because it sounds like I'm River Song, the Auror. Doctor Potter FTW (yes, I just made that merger up. it's a thing now. Also severe is a thing now. that was severe.)
And then I went down on an impromptu trip through Washington and into Oregon. On our way back, I bought the unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook - guess who's making pumpkin pasties this weekend? 8D
And now, in one week, I'm leaving on a jet plane to move into the city where I'll be spending the next 4 or so years of my life in university - indeed, this is the same city that Jess visited earlier this year, so here's to hoping she comes and visits again! :D
And that's what you missed on "Sanja's Summer Life"
Sorry for the hiatus. Double sorry for the long post. Excited to read you all on a daily basis again (let's get posting, girls)!
Until next Thursday, this is AurorRiver16 signing out!

Annica is posting on a Wednesday! D:
Hello, girls. It's currently 12:22 AM on a Wednesday as I write this. That's close enough to Tuesday, right?
I suppose that I'll fill you in with what's been going on in my life lately!~
1. Something I wrote was published in the book Dear Mr. Potter (if you haven't heard of it, then you should Google it). I know that it wasn't because it was actually good writing. I'm sure it was just published because I wrote about Fred and George. It's exciting anyway! I'm on page 200, if any of you have the book.
2. My best friend has been staying with me for almost a month now. She lives 1800 miles away, and I hadn't seen her in a year. It's been fun!
3. I saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part Two (twice now). I saw the midnight premiere, unfortunately not at LeakyCon. My best friend and I dressed up as Fred and George. My step-dad was Charlie Weasley. His mom dressed as Mrs. Weasley. My other friend dressed up as Neville. It was really fun. The second time, I saw it with my other best friend and my mom. A boy in middle school sat right next to us and starting flirting with my friend. It was interesting. Post-potter depression hasn't kicked in yet, but I know that it's coming.
Welp, that's all for now. I hope you are all having a lovely summer. I know I am!~
Winona, it is possible that I will read you later today.

Bridget is leeeeaving, on a jet plaaaaane
Yes that's right folks, I am packing up for a week to go and see my friends back in Holland! (: I am so excited I am ready to scream. Not having seen them in a year (other than over Skype occasionally, and Jordan IRL when he came here) has been super tough, but all of us are very excited to reunite. (Even if it is just for a week).
And when I'm there - I'm going to go and see....

OOOOH YES.
Jess, I'll HOPEFULLY read you on Monday!

Annica almost forgets that today is Tuesday.
Well, it still is for me, anyway.
Hello, girls!~ How are you?
Did you know that two people have been found dead in my relatively small town this week? Of course you didn't. Anyway, one was a nineteen year old girl and one was a twenty-two year old boy. They were both found in the lake by my school. They are both thought to be suicide attempts.
That news, along with some other things in my life, made today not so great. I hope that everything in your lives are going better!~
But today is the day that John Green announced the title of his new book: The Fault in Our Stars. Yay!~
Talk to you later!!

Jess forgot that yesterday was Monday
Anyways.
Hello! I was in Canada last week, and it was tons of fun. I think these pictures will pretty much sum up the experience.
...Maybe not. I have a lot of pictures.
So, how is everyone? I'm pretty good. Except, last night, I had a pretty huge revelation that is really making me question everything. Which might be another reason why I forgot to post. Probably.
I'm not sure what else to say. I'll let this speak for me:
Annica, I'll read you tomorrow! Err, today. Yeah.

HELLO GIRLS. ERM, HELLO GIRLS?
Wow, NEA has been rather sparse of posts lately hasn't it? I know, it's my fault too. I haven't posted in weeks! I'd like to apologize for myself first, I've been extremely busy with exams and provincials (hence not only the no posts but no videos/tweet/generally internet updates). However, this Tuesday my exams are over (and Monday, Jordan is coming for 2 weeks!) and so MIS will make her grand return to the internet.
I'm going to guess that there are similar reasons why there haven't been many posts from anyone (SCHOOL, grrr...). I hope NEA can come back to it's usual, active self soon!
