Annica held a baby alligator today.

Bonjour, ladies. It's the second Tuesday of NEA!

I'm so sorry that this is coming to you kind of late. I am on vacation in New Orleans, Lousiana right now. It's hot and humid and the food is all fried and so fatty, but I love it here. Actually, I kind of want to live here when I grow up. I'm starting to like the humidity, the food smells (and tastes) delicious, and the culture is so amazing and different, even if it is in the same country. Even when things aren't so nice or clean, I find them to be beautiful and interesting.

Today, we went to the swamp. It was super green and beautiful and brimming with life. During our ride, we saw over fifteen alligators. Our tour guide had a baby one on the boat and we all got to hold him. He was adorable. And tiny. And wiggly.

Afterward, we drove around and looked at some old plantations. There was this one plantation that had twenty-eight oak trees leading up to the house and it was absolutely beautiful. Normally, I prefer cute, small houses, but I definitely would not mind living there. There were gorgeous trees all over the grounds and the grass was so green and luscious. It was really pretty. :3

Next, we drove back to the city and went out to dinner. My brother kept complaining about America and how complicated the English language was. He doesn't like anything. Brothers are annoying.

I can't believe we have seven followers already. It may not seem like a lot, but I can't believe that we have that many already. Thanks everyone!

It's been great to read all of your posts so far, girls. I can't wait to get to know you more. I hope I haven't been too boring so far. D:


Now to address your posts!


Winona/Wednesday:

I smiled to myself when I realized that Winona and Wednesday both start with the same letter. I think your name is really pretty (both of them).

It's awesome that you have a lake near your house that you can go to. I wish I had a place where I could go and relax alone near my house.


Sanja/Thursday:
Here are the results to the quiz you took. It's pretty accurate, but not completely. Still interesting, though.


What Be Your Nerd Type?
Your Result: Literature Nerd
Does sitting by a nice cozy fire, with a cup of hot tea/chocolate, and a book you can read for hours even when your eyes grow red and dry and you look sort of scary sitting there with your insomniac appearance? Then you fit this category perfectly! You love the power of the written word and it's eloquence; and you may like to read/write poetry or novels. You contribute to the smart people of today's society, however you can probably be overly-critical of works. It's okay. I understand.

Social Nerd
Artistic Nerd
Gamer/Computer Nerd
Drama Nerd
Anime Nerd
Musician
Science/Math Nerd

(note: The first sentence does sound incorrect. Ugh!)


We were both reading George Orwell books last week. I have to read Animal Farm for school, though. It wasn't for fun. ):


Bridget/Friday:

I've never played any Pokemon games and I have yet to watch the anime as a whole, but I was wondering... Are you excited for Black and White? Also, I'm jealous of your polar bears. D:


Jess/Monday:

I tried making myself as a Pokemon trainer, but it didn't work. I'm on a computer from the dinosaur age and it's doesn't belong to us, so I didn't want to do anything I shouldn't. I'll have one next week.

I'm starting school next Tuesday as well. It will be my first day of high school. I'll tell you guys about it. :3

It's great that you had such an awesome experience at Roflcoptour. I wish I could have gone!


Song of the Day: Electric Feel by MGMT
Element of the Day: Water
Currently Reading: Ruined by Paula Morris and Animal Farm by George Orwell

Winona, I'll read you tomorrow.

Au revoir!

- Annica
