of course :)

[Kaderin Triste]

Oooh, if I really focus, I should be able to finish a book tomorrow!

[trystan830]

oh yaaay! I finished another Murdoch Mystery the other day! woot!

[Kaderin Triste]

I read the only children's book I own yesterday. Noisy Nora. Or as my family called it "Noisy Heather". It's a great book for anyone who is a middle child tbh. XD

[trystan830]

i'm the oldest between me and my brothers. i don't have a middle daughter, there's only two of 'em :)

[Kaderin Triste]

The basic summary of the book is that kom and dad are too busy taking care of the older and younger sibling to pay attention to the middle kid so the middle kid makes messes and is noisy in an attempt to also be given attention, but just gets shushed. So then the m.k. hides in a closet and pretends to run away and the parents panic a bit until the m.k. crashes out of their hiding place.
But it basically sums up perfectly the feeling of being ignored and being made to feel unimportant because the parents are busy fawning over the first-born and the baby.

[trystan830]

aww, yeah. i could see that being a thing in some families.

[Kaderin Triste]

If I had been a boy instead, it would have been better because at least I would have been the first boy and had something special instead of being the second girl.
*shrug*

[trystan830]

huh. interesting.

[Kaderin Triste]

One if my favorite moments growing up is when my sister fell into the wrong group her freshman year of highschool and started smoking, shoplifting, etc and when caught, my parents sent her to therapy. And also sent me because even though they "knew we're completely different" they thought I'd make the same mistake.

[trystan830]

well that doesn't sound like fun at all. :(

[Kaderin Triste]

Yeah....I was not thrilled. I think I only went to maybe 2-3 sessions, then just quit showing up because it was stupid and a waste of everyone's time.
XD

[trystan830]

yeah, that sounds about right.

so i'm currently reading A Map of Days, which is book 4 in Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. book 5 comes out next year, i think

I think there was even a graphic novel series spawned from the movie and had a ton of lore or something. :]

Okay, so I talked about this a few months back, and I don't know if I mentioned that the novels were made into the Netflix series Age of Resistance, but it's on Netflix now and I am enjoying it so far. :D
I just finished the first episode but now I'm hungry so I'm going to eat something and watch episode 2. x}
There are 10 episodes available, and they're all like under and hour long, except episode 1. I gotta say, it's kinda inspiring to watch. 83 *squishes cheeks* Makes me wanna get back to writing n' stuff..
I'm so hungry. x}

Edit: Oh! This is The Dark Crystal I'm talking about by the way! <x'D Forgot to mention!

[trystan830]

it's fine, as soon as i read Age of Resistance, i had a feeling that's what you were talking about. now that i've seen the original movie, i can watch the series. it's gonna remind me of Rogue One though - there's only one way it can end.

[Merskelly Metalien]

oUo; Yehhh it's gonna be catastrophic. x}
But I still love the little animals and the podlings…
and the fizgigs! x'D <3
And the skeksis are horrible but hilarious. x} Mark Hamil voices the Scientist you know! :D
