Big changes are going on here at PAWS

I did change my name to Sprinkles. Oh the horror.

Howl of the Silver Moon has been delayed, and thus, the charries are moving out for a while.

Marth: I never thought you were low enough to desert us.
Mimor: *sniff, sob*
Rose: :P
Zagum: @#$?!&
Scezzle: I am finally separated from my author and she dumps me!
Sprinkles: *cringe* Sorry...
Marth: You expect me to think a sorry is good enough?!
Sprinkles: No...
Marth: -///- I'll miss you.
Sprinkles: *glomps him in return* >w<  Bye!
*Scezzle Co. leaves*
Sprinkles: *calls after them* See you next year! *waves*
*In come new charries*
Madelyn: Your going to kill me, aren't you?
Sprinkles:Yeah, pretty much.
Anonymous: Can I get a name here?
Sprinkles: Sure, how about: 'annoyingpuss' or 'moron'.
Anonymous: You've said one sentence to me and I hate you already.
Sprinkles: I must be doing better than I thought! O.O Any way, I thought you could be named Shawn or Chad, but for now you'll just be Sirus like you were going to be in the first place.
Sirus: Thank you.
Sprinkles: You are entirely well-come. But you wont leave me in such wonderful condition.
Sirus: Charming thought.
Sprinkles: *chuckles evilly and wrings hands with a devilish grin*
Madelyn: You're scaring me.
Sprinkls: This is going better than I planned.

And now Icewolf's classic ending:

History has never been so ...epic

 Epic. Ha. lol. :P

We did history this morning and I though this was so awesome I just had to share it with you awesome gals and ...maybe guys.

The Sumerians lived in the land of Sumer, which is in the Fertile Crescent, which is in a place known today as Iraq.


They came to the Fertile Crescent around 2300 BC.
They had poetry, libraries, irrigation systems, a writing called cuneiform (which had 600 symbols. Crazy or what?), made statues out of terracotta, and may have invented the wheel. (So they obviously weren't stupid cave men)
There was a man named Terah living in Ur (try and find it on the map). He was a merchant and became very wealthy. But Babylon might have been planning to attack Ur, and Terah didn't want to lose everything in the war. So he took his wife and his son Abram and his wife Sarai and traveled up the Euphrates river and settled in Haran (which is not on the map, but is across from Carchemish somewhere). Terah soon died and Abram took over. At the time he believed in the Gods of Haran, but the one true God spoke to him and told him to go to Canaan, and promised to make him into a great nation.
Abram obeyed God and moved to Canaan. Abrams name was soon changed to Abraham and Sarai to Sarah. Abraham was 100 when Sarah had a son named Isaac. Sarah was 90.
Isaac married a woman named Rebecca and they had two children named Jacob and Esau. Jacob stole Esau's birthright and fled to his uncle Laban. He then married both of Laban's daughters. Leah had 10 sons and Rachel had 2. Rachel's sons were named Joseph and Benjamin. Jacob favored them more than the rest of his sons, and gave Joseph a colorful coat. Joseph's brothers became angry and sold him into slavery. Joseph landed in Egypt where he found favor in the eyes of the pharaoh, who made him second in command. When Joseph's brothers came to escape a famine and he finally revealed who he was, he told them to come live in Egypt. They did, and their descendants became the tribes of Israel (because Josephs name was soon changed to Israel). Years after Joseph had died, the 12 tribes had become so large that the pharaoh of Egypt became jealous of them.
Moses soon lead these 12 tribes out of Egypt.

Do you get the connections? Here's a chart I did:

Terah - Ur to Haran
Abram/Abraham + Sarai/Sarah - Haran to Canaan
Isaac + Rebecca
      Jacob + Esau
Jacob + Leah + Rachel
          10 sons   2 sons = 12 sons = Israel/Jews
                           ^ Joseph and Benjamin
Joseph
   was sold into slavery
   became "second in command" of Egypt
   brought his family to Egypt
   ^ which became the 12 tribes of Israel

Moses
   Delivered them from Egypt

Easier? Pretty cool huh?


My younger brother came in here a little while ago and told my older brother that when he was younger and was doing history, he drew this guy with a beard and a t-shirt that said: "kiss me, I ate a potato." :P Go figure.

I've got news...

We got a new computer! It is so awesome! It's an IMac and its big, and huge, and it has a wireless keyboard, and a wireless mouse, and it looks so cool, and-

Yeah, you get the idea.

Today we did history or whatever and it was about dinosaurs. You should read my post about it on LCBW.

I have some pictures from the summer I want to put up, but I don't have the pictures on this (awesome, new) computer. So we'll have to wait.

I made a blog a little while ago called Fruit Basket. It's a choose your own adventure blog with only five posts-hardly worth looking at, but just to let you know.

SHOULD I CHANGE MY NAME TO SPRINKLES?

And last but not least,

Okay, don't scream.

You promise?

Well, here it is:

Howl of the Silver Moon has been delayed till next year. I am busy with school and the other story I'm working on, so I don't have enough time to work on it.
