Oooohhh Granddad!

Good ol' Granddad!

BTW my granddad read my LAST blog post and assured me still plays tennis on Fridays and Sundays.
The only reason I was unsure was because last time I was SURE he mentioned going to tennis was when I was 11.

Oooohhh Grandma!

So, today, while mum's at work she  calls me to check on how my brother and I doing at home, and she asks me if I got her e-mail, that she forwarded from my Grandma. And I was like, no, why? (I'm really bad at checking my e-mail) and she said that it was from grandma talking about my blog post from yesterday, about my writing goal, and she said that she will never tell me 'to write what you know'. Here is the full e-mail copy and pasted for you:
I’d never ever tell Alice Peeta ‘write about what you know.’ It’s a good starting point for reluctant writers or people who lack self-confidence but a fluent and imaginative writer like her would find it very restrictive. Just go for it, A P, and let your fingers fly over the keyboard.

And if your wondering why she called me Alice Peeta, Peeta is my current middle name on Facebook, because of the Hunger Games. See, whenever I change my middle name on Facebook my Grandparents call me by my first name and my facebook middle name. And when my Graddad asked why I not call myself by the Heroine's name (Katniss), I said 'Because I would date Peeta if he was a real person.'
So, they have also called me by the name of 'Alice Potter'.

So, just letting you know Grandma, I wasn't say that YOU were going to say 'write what you know' just people who read my stories in general, that is why I am so private about my writing.
Something tells me that just made no sense, and only slightly helped me get my point across.

So, just letting you guys know that I have pretty awesome grandparents, with a great sense of humour.
Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDDAD!!!!!!!!!!!
He's turning 90 today. And he still plays golf and I'm pretty sure he still plays tennis when he gets the chance.
BTW I consider that picture misleading, considering I write all my stories on my laptop. But my Grandma wrote by hand.

Theming my Blog!

So, I just went from Halloween themed blog to Birthday themed, because my Mum's birthday is tomorrow (2nd of November) and then it is my birthday on the 19th of November (Mother-Daughter Scorpio buddies!!). And then it's leaving school time (how about a High School Musical 2 theme then?(NZ's christmas holidays are also the summer holidays)) theme? Then Christmas, then New Years. And then starting school time. A lot of themes to go through. Phew!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!!!
P.S. Sorry the colours in the theme don't quite match, but oh well, celebration has no colour :)
