Bismark

this is bismark

yesterday we went to a fair and had a great time, we went to those chair-o-plain things and had great fun but the best bit was near the end. Evy and me won a goldfish! it was like my childhood dream come true :) we called him bismark (because he was originally chav, then bling then we changed it to bismark because it is cool) thecnicaly he is count bismark.

and this is bismark  in his fish tank

this will convert you

in R.E we had to make an advert advertising christianity to young people, if this doesent convince you to be christion i dont know what will.

half term

over the half term Holiday the McLaughlin family went to Dorset. their was good weather, things to do  and inviting sunny hills to be walked on but despite this, Evy and me managed to do nothing and passed the time by making card towers and playing on dads phone. the result of the photo editing app on dads phone:

Evy, with enhanced odd hair

something that use to resemble raspberries

me, sort of

their were many more but I sort of liked these ones

Art expidition at st. Edwards

we went to an art expidition today and took some pics of nice tings.  

A angel, it cought my eye because it had much larger wings than your normal dainty angel. I instantly liked the difference.

dont know who its by or whats it called I just realy like it.

  by David Goode. one of my faverout peces

 when we were their we mostly ran around avoiding people, getting lost and going into the places were we wernt ment to be (accidently) and a ladey in pink came up to us and said "girls, did Elisibeth go this way?" for some reson out of instinct I pointed the way we came and said yes, then ran once we were out of sight and avoided her for the rest of the trip.

Beautifull Boots!

what wonderful boots!

the other day when we were in Dorset mum and I were shoe shopping for walking boots, we went into a shop and spied the most gorgeous boots in the world, they went actually these ones they were these in red, anyway they were BEAUTIFUL! but... they weren't in my size so we went home bootless and disappointed. but we found them online (only in green) and now I have them!
so I felt the kneed to tell the world this.

R.E.D

recently i have taken the role as a riot control police person with conours ski helmet, a baton, walky talky and red silk scarf bandanna. my latest addition is my funny spray gun (demonstrated in pic)

BUSHCRAFT! (was awsome)

Last week me and about 60 other yr8s went to BUSHCRAFT!!!! (which was awesome) besides from the showers (or rather the lack of), the tics (I got three to many) , the loo (whole in the ground) and excellent hygiene facilities (I won’t even go into that) it was SOO COOL!   

What we did was go off to the new wilderness (new forest) and camp there for the week in a camp provided by bush craft, we did loads of cool activities and learnt how to survive with no showers, electricity, radiators, TV, computers, phones and junk food. I thought I managed well but I had to have two showers and a massive wash, nail manicure, bath, hair sort out, when I got back. In the week we learnt how to make fire, cook on our fires, learn first aid, purify water, catch animals, make shelters out of logs we found (we slept in ours for two nights! Just logs and leaves!) play crazy field games, not to burn road addendum (Poisonous!N)  eat loads, catch/gut/cook and eat rainbow trout and salmon. We did plenty of other stuff but that is the best I can remember.

stupidly we built our shelter right next to the boys, who stupidly sang at the top of thair voices ALL night! (and badly!)

Another reason why it was so great was the atmosphere, the teachers were human and at a stretch they were actually quite cool. After meals under the parachute around the campfire we would sing cheesy songs which was fun because when everybody joined in it sounded awful but was funny (you won’t believe how many times we sung the lazy song) . At the end of the week we did tribe got talent, our tribe did a bush craft themed catwalk with costumes made of ripped up parachutes and leaves. Me Evy and a friend were hippies and had grass skirts with flowers ex, there was also an army group with guile suites and cameo, a Goth section which used black face cameo around their eyes, a wedding dress (which I helped design) and two boys wore manikins made of leaves and old parachute!

the religion of "THE BOX"

THE BOX

THE CURTAIN

THE TAPE

this is my new religion, these wholly symbols made of gold are the three shapes of THE BOX, the religion is based around the godlike all perfect BOX who's sacred name must be in capitals whenever written. the curtain and the tape are although of high importance and wholeness don't kneed to be in caps. the original church of this religion was founded by the almighty LOUISE who was the first "contents" of the BOX. the "contents" of the BOX are the believers. the first church was built with a box, tape and a curtain to represent the almighty symbols. the BOX is the main structure of our lives as it is in the church and the religion. the curtain shields the church as it Shields us from all evil. the tape binds together the church as it binds our lives.



the first church of the BOX

the inside of the church is actually very impressive for such a small space, their is overhead lighting (a torch on string) calming spiritual glowy lighting (glowy egg stuck to the ceiling) wholly golden icons (cut out of wholly golden paper) incense (lavinder stuffed into the corners)  a confettion sheet (pece of paper with pen) and a tour plack of the church (postit note with info on the church).

the fee to look around, repent, confess, be forgiven, be preechd to, convert and learn about the ways of the BOX is a meer 1p and if you gues the number on the dice (wich the BOX will chose) you get a moneyback garentee! (may the BOX have mercy)
