50!!!!!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, this is (drumroll please) OUR FIFTIETH POST!!!! Today we have officially posted 50 times, which means fifty book reviews, new words, inspiring quotes, and helpful advice.

With our fiftieth post, we are celebrating the old, but we also want to celebrate the new. We would like to welcome GiGi Babineaux, our new potential Hobbledehoy!! Here is her bio:

GiGi is a geeky teenage girl who lives in a state known for its plentiful sun, which GiGi insists is not as sunny as it is cracked up to be. She gave her life to Christ a few years back, and she is determined to use her God-given gifts to serve the Lord, and to make a good impression on the world before she dies or Jesus comes back again. Whichever comes first.

While she waits for the inevitable to happen, she spends most of her free time reading books and re-reading books, writing fan fiction, drawing art (or fan art) and fangirling over various fandoms, mostly consisting of Marvel and The Lord of the Rings. She is a fangirl and is burdened with glorious feels. She is also constantly attached to her iPod; the music it plays helps her forget about the world around her. She doesn’t understand people who live without music, because music is her life. She likes to associate all of her life and fandoms with songs. GiGi would also like to note that she likes messing around with the computer and graphics. She is currently working on a music video for the song Spaceman by the Killers, which is coming on nicely. Of course, she loves to write, and would much rather stay inside doing so instead of going outside to play tag with everyone else.

GiGi is sure she would find lots of other interesting things to do (such as invent a lightsaber and/or Neutrino 2000 that works in the real world and not just online and in her imagination), but unfortunately, most days she finds herself up to her pointy ears in school subjects, such as Algebra, Biology and Health. This probably wouldn’t be the case if she didn’t spend half the time she was supposed to be working in her imaginary field of paper flowers and candy clouds of lullaby. She often lies inside herself for hours as she watches her purple sky fly over her. And when she gets bored of watching the sky, she has marvelous adventures inside her head with various fictional characters. She gets annoyed when people accuse her of being out of touch with the rampant chaos of the Earth, because she knows only too well what lies beyond her sleeping refuge. A nightmare she had to build her own world to escape from. A nightmare she wants to help turn into a dream.

GiGi is going to be an "intern" from February 1st to March 14th, and at the end of that time, Amber and I are going to decide whether we would like her to remain a temporary fixture here.

So let a new era of posts begin!!! Next milestone: 100!!!
