Picture Saturday: Better late than never?

Yeah, I know. It's barely Saturday still, and for some of you, it's Sunday... so... I'm sorry.

It's just been a day, you feel me?

Guess what we're doing tonight. We're rewatching some Grimms because... much as we like Sleepy Hollow. It is not. Grimm. 

I love rewatching episodes with people who haven't seen them. I literally sit there and watch them like this.

And it drives them crazy, but hey, I like it.

That being said, we're also watching the first two episodes of Supernatural s10.

I do not want to watch my Dean be a demon. It will not be fabulous. 

It's gonna be a fun night. 

So anyway, here, Picture Saturday. 

1.) Le 100 Cupboards fanart of Henry and Henrietta. (Shhh. She does not look like Pippi Longstocking, how dare you.)

 2.) Le Frank from 100 Cupboards, because Frank is aaaaaaaawesome. 

 3.) Le Henry carving his last words into the wall. I really like how Henry's turning out. He's a cool kid. 

 4.) Le guitarist. (No, contrary to popular believe, I did not draw it because Jensen Ackles sang Will Ye Go, Lassie Go. BUT JENSEN ACTUALLY SANG WILL YOU GO LASSIE GO AND I HAVEN'T FREAKED OUT SO MUCH IN AGES. I've been wanting to draw a guitarist for a while, but watching Jensen put me in the mood. Because... he's awesome, and plays guitar and sings and yeah, and I'm going to shut up now because this is getting awkward.)

 5.) Le Other Guitarist, whom I am also quite absurdly fond of. (again, I deny it being in any way caused by Jensen Ackles being Jensen Freaking Ackles.) The writing is a quote from Leverage, when Eliot sings for one of their cons. 

6.) And the grand finale! (though, it might not be grand so much as just the finale) The drawing I did of Little Fall of Rain. You know, from Les Mis when yet another character dies on the barricade. 

Ba dum bum. 

I am a little out of it right now, so this post isn't going to have a good ending. (It didn't have much of a beginning either, but hey ho cheerio.)

Ba dum diddle um dum. 

I'm done. 

Picture Saturday: 100 Cupboards, Raven Boys, and autumness

So, I'm wearing a lot of make up today.

I was bored. 

Hi.

I've given up on trying not to use "so" in my beginning sentences, because that word is apparently my favorite, and when I try not to use is my mind goes kaput.

So.

This Picture Saturday does not have as many 100 Cupboards drawings as I would like, but it does have some. (I want to draw all  the characters because they have such interesting descriptions!) But I didn't manage it this week. I shall try for next time. As it is all I have are Henry and Henrietta.

Alrighty, let's get this partay started!

1.) Le Henry. (the little stinker grew up a lot between book one and book two so I need to redo him, and make him look older now.)

 2.) Le Henrietta.

 3.) Le Henry.

 4.) Le Henrietta

 5.) Le Henry picture that I really like and am proud of the way the subtle colors look.

 6.) Le Henrietta being stupid and Henrietta-ish.

And that's it for 100 Cupboards this week. Next week I'll have more. :)

7.) Le doodles of Darcy from Haphazardly Implausible

8.) Le Darcy being Darcy.

 9.) Le Shocked Expression Test.

 10.) RONAAAAAAAAAN!

11.) Le one that I did when I was like, "I'M SO HAPPY IT'S OCTOBERRRR!"

 12.) Le li'l reading person.

13.) And finally, Le Singing Guy Who Is Very Cute.

 Ba dum pum. (That's a drum roll. Say it. See?)

And now I must say so long. Farewell. That-German-word. Goodbye.

I love you all. *cyber embrace of friendship.*

I need to comment on blogs.

Cheers!

Ich Liebe Dich

Did you know that liebst means love in German? (At least, according to Google Translate.) And did you further know that liebster means dearest? (also according to Da Google) But I don't get why liebster doesn't mean lover, doesn't that make more sense?

So when people nominate you for the Liebster Award, you're actually getting nominated for the Dearest Award.

You're welcome for that random, useless piece of trivia.

Emily the Fabulous, has nominated Me, the Frenchiest Fry, for the Liebster/Dearest/Lover Award.

Danke! (that's German for thank you.)

Le Rules to describe it are as follows and I quote.

1.) Stink
2.) Stank
3.) Stunk!

Ehem. Actually no, that was a Grinch quote. Le rules are in fact:

1. Give 11 facts about yourself.
2. Answer the 11 questions you are given.
3. Nominate 11 other bloggers.
4. Set them 11 questions.
5. Put the award button on your site.

I break rules frequently, because I am like Loki, and I DO WHAT I WANT. So I'm not putting the button on my site. HA. SO THERE, mein liebst. (that's German for my love. WOO!)

Sooooo. I'm going to start with eleven facts about myself. 

1.) I'm reading the 100 Cupboards series. (Are you happy now, Hannah?) AND I LOVE THEM. I literally read the first book in one evening. I was quite unashamedly up too late reading it. And the characters have me itching to draw them because... I art. Next Picture Saturday shall be laden with fanart.

2.) I got Starbucks yesterday and it was delish. 

3.) I'm really sick of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. 

4.) Hunter Hayes's new CD is fabulous, and I might need to do a lyric post featuring one of the songs. 

5.) We went and watched Maze Runner again. It's still super stressful, even when you know what's going to happen.

6.) Contrary to the way I'm flinging German words around in this post, I don't speak a lick of German. I literally know the German I know because of Hogan's Heroes. 

7.) I FINALLY watched the first episode of the new series of Doctor Who and I ALREADY LOVE TWELVE. He's awesome! He's fabulous! He's adorable in a cranky old Scot sort of way. He and Nine are tied for second place in my love of Doctors.

8.) Sometimes when I'm doing deliveries for the florist, I see some pretty frabjous views.

9.) Sometimes when I'm delivering I get stuck in road work for twenty minutes in both directions. 

10.) So then I sang loudly along with the radio (falling in love to the beeeat of the musiiic.) with my windows down and the old guy in the car behind me may or may not have caught my eye in my side mirror and laughed. 

11.) I was very embarrassed.

Now I'm going to answer the Eleven Questions. 

Which are actually twenty-two questions, because I liked Chelsea's.

So Emily's quessies....

1. Which book world would you live in, if you could never return?

    Phhht. I'd live in the wold of Howl's Moving Castle. 

2. Which book world would you travel to for a week before returning?

    Oooh. Ooh. OOOOH. Um. I'd visit Middle Earth. DUH. 

 
3. What book have you been meaning to read forever but just not got round to?

     Ehehe. Previously it would have been 100 Cupboards, but now it's probably... um. I tend to read the books I mean to read. 

4. What book did everyone else love, but you hated?
     BEFORE YOU KILL ME, HEAR ME OUT. I did not like Mockingjay. Mockingjay was depressing. I like my series to end with hope, and it didn't. Also, spoiler alert: I thought it was a bad call to kill Prim. You oughtn't finish a series by killing the character that you started the series to save. And what the heck was up with Gale? 

5. What book were you very sceptical about reading but actually loved?

    Scorpio Races. I was skeptical and I am ashamed. 

6. Fictional crush?

    I expect, since the rest of the questions are about books, that this means, book crush and not TV crush. (eheh. I have too many of those at the moment.) RIGHT NOW? My fictional crush is either Gansey or Ronan. (give me two weeks and it will probably be someone else.) 

7. Most perfect book ending?

    There. Are. So. Many. Um.... Um. Lark is the bomb diggety.

8. What do you do when you're bored?

     I AM THE PINTEREST QUEEN. (never mind that I really need to read and draw more.)

9. When did you last cry, and why? (If you want to tell us!)
    Last week. 

    I was sad. 

   There may have been loneliness involved. 

10. What's your happy song(s)

      Right now, it's Be My Forever by Christina Perri and Ed Sheeran. IT'S SO CUTE. (other times it is You Make Me Smile by Uncle Kracker, which I like because of this video. And this video. 

Be My Forever

We're on top of the world. 

We're on top of the world now, darling,

so don't let go. 

Can I call you mine?

Yeah, can I call you mine for a whole life time?

My heart finally trusts my mind. 

And I know somehow it's right. 

It's just so cute.

11. And finally, what's your sad song(s)?
     Human, by Christina Perri, and Never Grow Up by Taylor Swift.

 AND NOW FOR CHELSEA'S QUESTIONS. BOOM SHOCK CLAP. 

1) If you suddenly found yourself in a do-or-die situation, what would it be? What single item would you want to have with you (yup, I totally stole this question from another blog)?
     Probably a mugging. And I'd like to have a glock, please. 

2) Imagine this: the Doctor shows up at your door one day, asking you to travel time and space with him. The only problem is that you have to leave straight away, without saying goodbye to your family. Would you go?
     Eheh. Fun fact about me: I'm a coward. So... no. I have a problem where I like to be with my family, and I don't like spur-of-the-moment stuff. So.. much as I LOVE the Doctor? No. Probably not. I KNOW. I AM ASHAMED OF MYSELF.

3) What is the worst book you have ever read?
    Probably H.I.V.E. (which stands for the Higher Institute of Villainous Education. Which sounds fabulous. It wasn't. Don't bother.)

4) What is the first thing that comes to mind when I say the word "magic"?

5) Least favourite household chore?
    Bathrooms.
    Like...
    EW.

6) What is your favourite childhood memory?
     I used to bike ride up and down the street with the other kids on the block. All day long. Every day. (You know, back when I had friends, and did not suffer from Social Anxiety.) They've all moved away now.

7) If you got to sing a duet with any musician, who would it be?
    JOSH. FREAKING. GROBAN.
    Or the Piano Guys.
    Or Peter Hollens.

8) What qualities do you look for in your future husband?
    Oh. Well, he'd need to be Catholic. I'd like him to be thoughtful and funny. I think considering my obsession with the fictional worlds, he'd need to be a bit geeky. And if I had my druthers, he'd be able to fight, sing, and teach me to dance.

And that's why I'm going to be single forever.

9) How would you react if you were told that you are actually the long lost queen of Genovia and you must return there with your grandmother and her cool bodyguard, Joey, to learn how to rule a kingdom before you take the throne on your 21st birthday?

Shut up.
Shut up!
SHUT UP!!

(translation: wow, gee wiz, golly wolly.)

10) Would you eat escargot (it's basically a snail pastry)?
       I think I would at least try escargot.
       Caviar on the other hand....

11) *Larry the Cucumber enters the room singing* "And have you ever been to Boston in the faaaaall?"

Ehem. *Treskie clears her throat.*

WELL, I'VE NEVER BEEN TO GREENLAND AND I'VE NEVER BEEN TO DENVER,

AND I'VE NEVER BURIED TREASURE IN ST. LOUIE OR ST. PAUL. 

AND I'VE NEVER BEEN TO MOSCOW AND I'VE NEVER BEEN TO TAMPA, 

AND I'VE NEVER BEEN 

TO BOSTOOOON

IN THEEEEE

FAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL. 

You may applaud. 

 Thank you. Danke. Danke. You are too kind, meine freunde. (German. My friends.)

1.) Would you rather hang out with Percy Jackson or Harry Potter?
2.) If you suddenly lost your dominant hand, what do you think would be the hardest thing for you to learn to do with your other hand?
3.) Do you prefer pictures or gifs in blog posts?
4.) Let's say I were to suddenly stop blogging. Would you be sad?
5.) What size shoe do you wear?
6.) Does it irritate you when girls in action movies leave their hair down?
7.) Does it irritate you when women wear heels in action movies?
8.) Do you wanna be where the people are, or would you prefer to live under the sea? (Also the seaweed is always greener in somebody else's lake.)
9.) Can you move all your fingers independently of each other?
