//Another Zoo Trip!/

First off, those set pics mentioned in my last blog/post/whatever are...OMG. The best! Dude.

Moving on! xD

Mum, Dad, Danielle and I went to the Adelaide Zoo on Monday! The weather was pretty warm, hot actually, haha. Thank god Mum brought sun screen!

Of course I took a crap load of pictures. xD I think it was *checks folder* 371 photos! Yay LOL. I think I've picked around thirty-something to show here though, haha. Readdyyy? Go!

(BTW - click to see the actual size. They're just a teeny bit smaller here. :P)

Okay go!


Love the Dwarf Mongoose! This guy was actually out and about this time. n___n



Yay, seals! Lol. They looked so bored, swimming around in circles...


Herro, little turtle!


Ahhh Mandrills are so cool. There were about three moving around when we went! So cool. This little guy was digging around in the durt, haha.


Lilly flower thingy in the water surrounding the Mandrill enclosure. (with the turtle!)


>:3


Awww, look at hiiim! So adorable. Gah, my bright shirts are visible on the glass, that's why there's green/yellow stuff there. xD


I. Love. The. White. Cheeked. Gibbons! OMG, so cute. The female (I'm thinking she's the cream/yellow one?) was going spazz because there were kids eating Doritos, (note to self: do not go to the zoo on a public holiday! Gah) And she was jumping around everywhere. Then she walked over to the little guy and sat there. There was a collective sigh and "Aww". xD


<3!!


Poseerrrr. But she's gorgeous anyways.


SIAMANG HISSY FIT AHHHH.


"AHTHDFISFHJT!!!" Lol. His cries sounded like an imitation of a newborns cries, lol it was weird! There were two Siamangs sitting on the house this one is on, but then this guy started making those weird sounds and the other one was like "Psh! *moves away*". You can just see the other one's hands/feet! xD


Dusky Leaf Monkey! They're with the Malayan Tapirs. I couldn't find them the last time I was there. :c I love the monkeys/apes/primates/whatever!


*Peeks* >.> Oohh I see you, buddy. *moves out of firing line* Once the gibbons started spazzing about the chips, the Siamang's became curious, and so did these guys.
The tree this one was in is directly above where you view the other monkeys. They were dropping leaves and stuff on us! It was funny, because once everyone noticed him/her the crowd parted below it. xD


Ooo, pretty eye. This flamingo was posiiing, hehe.


Pretty flower. I quickly took this pic haha, the bush thing was infested with beeesss ahh.


c:


Yay, Bongo! I love 'em.


*lolsamepose*


O, herro!


The lioness was watching all the kiddies lol, gosh they make a lot of noise!


Took me ages to get a pic of him...people were standing in the waaay!


Can you see his/her food there? Man, it stinks.


One of Mum's personal faves! :D


:3


There was a keeper holding a branch and feeding the Meerkat's right next to them, and they were curious. :P


*woahalmostsymmetrical!* Heheh.


Meerkat doing what they do best!


Tee hee, Echidna's rock.


Hairy-nosed Wombat! I don't know the last time I saw these guys...I don't even remember. We got to see the wombats, Echidna's and a Koala, and I forgot the zoo even had any here! xD


Pretty Kookaburra. n___n


I feel in love with these birds. Are they so pretty? I love the colours! I've never really noticed them before. I think they're Sun Canures...I think.


Ooh la-la! Lolz.


Awh a Squirrel Monkey, so cute!


And lastly, a Star Finch, I believe it's called. *lolnerd* Pretty cute! And they're so tiiiny.

So yeah, it was a pretty good trip, apart from the loud yelling/screaming/crying kids and parents, haha. And we parked kinda far away because the car park outside the zoo was full.

For something completely different, Season 7 of Smallville started on Ten HD today! Woot. Saves me having to download episodes. We started watching all our Smallville box sets from Season 1, and we just got up to season 4 today. Phew.

Mum's only seen up to parts of season 5, so when we watched the new ep today, she was very confused, to say the least. xD Mum wants to have a Smallville marathon now, LOL! Three seasons to watch until next Thursday! Hmm, don't see it happening, haha.

Oh! Danielle's gone back to wearing glasses now. We went to the optometrist on Monday, and she picked some cool frames and got her prescription (is that right? Wtf I have no idea) thingo, which they told us will be ready in two weeks. U__U Lol.

Yeah...that's all, I think. I hope there aren't any typos, It's 12:30am and I'm off to bed, haha. Man, my life is boring LOL.

//Wooties./

Far out! There's so many set pictures (and even videos) coming out, I can barely keep up! And it's making me even more impatient for the movie to come out. I've never followed to making of a movie this closely before, not even Harry Potter! *gasp* Lol. But yeah, it's really awesome.

Aaand tomorrow some 'Twilight Moms' that went on the set today are going to post photos tomorrow! Apparently one of them is a photographer, so the pictures are bound to be awesome! They weren't able to post them tonight unfortunately, so we just have to wait. :P

Have I ever mentioned how much I love sunsets? Weelll I do, lol. That, and fireworks, too. I took some pretty photos of a nice sunset we had here the other night. c:





<3

Off I go to stalk the Twilight IMDb board!

//Hootttt./

Fudge, it's been so hot lately!

I think Adelaide made some kind of record in Australia for a heat wave...something about 11 days of over 35 degree heat. Yay for us! Did I read it was 42 here today! Bah! It's too dang hot to do anythiiing. U__U And I'm bored, dammit! But apparently Sarah is coming over on Sunday, so that's good. n__n

Okay, so, Danielle and I bought the 6th season of Smallville recently, so we've been watching that these last couple of days. I forgot how much I enjoy that show, lol. But I'm so impatient for new episodes that I've started downloading episodes of Season 7! (I promise I'll buy the boxset when it comes out!) I've only been able to get two episodes so far, and they take aaaages to download. I can only download them when we've run out of bandwidth, too. So I have three more days to download to my hearts content, before we got more bandwidth. :P

Oh yeah, I downloaded my favourite episodes from Season 3 of Supernatural, too. Bad Day At Black Rock and Mystery Spot. Now I have them on my iPod, yay! I uploaded a video of my favourite part from the first ep - here it is! Bahaha, Dean rocks.

And yeah..that's all I've been up too, heh. ^^;; I gotta find something to amuse myself for the next *checks download* 40 or so minutes until I get part 1 (there's four parts) of the third episode from Smallville. This has to be the millionth time I've tried to download it. >.< It'll stop and just say it's finished, when it's only a little past the 60/70/80% mark. *shakes fist at download*

Alrighty, that's all for me. c:

//Hahaha...ha. Poor Dean./

Another post, I knowww.

I'm just bored, plus I found this awesome video. xD Well it is if you like Supernatural, anyways. Spoiler! Don't read ahead if you don't want any spoilers whatsoever (no matter how small, lol) on this episode. :]

The video is from the Season 3 episode Mystery Spot (one of my favourite eps now!), where Dean and Sam go check out this place called the "Mystery Spot" where a man was last seen...or something.

Well the episode turns out to be very much like the movie Groundhog Day (I haven't seen it in forever so I can barely remember, but this guy's day repeats over and over until he admits to his girlfriend that he loves her...I think) in the fact that poor Sam's day is repeating over and over ("Heeeaat of the moment"). The one majoorr difference being that Dean dies, and the day starts again. So yeah. This video is of some of the funnier "deaths" of Dean! <3 here.

That's it for meeee.

//Hmmm.../

Okay, so, I've been wanting to change my blogger layout for ages, I just didn't know what to do. And last weekend I was playing around in photoshop, and just made a little image as a title to go as my background (same as my MySpace page).

So...I have no idea about HTML, LOL. I searched google today, and finally found something, and now I have my own background! Yay. Not very original or whatever, but eh.

Yeah...I like the background but I want the sidebars to be kinda translucent. You know what I mean? 'Coz I think the text looks kinda funny...and I have no idea how to do what I want, LOL. Any heeelp? It would be greatly appreciated! Haha. c:

Oh! OMG! Did anybody watch Supernatural last night? It has to be one of my favourite episodes from the whole season! So funny. And sad. :[ I love this show!! Haha.

Well...better see if I can go for another driving lesson with Mum. Ciao!

What's one of your favorite quotes from the stories?
Too many! One random one I can think of is when Edward mentions Bella trying on his ring...and she screws up her fist and he says something like "Bella, I'm not going to solder it to your finger." xD Funny.

*sits on fence* I love them both!

Movie Stuff:

How did you first find out about the movie?
I think it was mentioned on TV, when they were talking about the book series.

Are you excited?
Yep! Rob Pattinson, ladies! xD Love him.

What do you think of the casting so far?
Perfectly happy with them all - though I have a few tiny issues with Jackson (Jasper) and Nikki (Rosalie).

Are you going to go see it?
Of course! Come to think of it, I need to make a Twilight shirt...

Planning on going with anyone in particular?
Well Sarah jumped and said we're going with her, but the more the merrier! I'll be nitpicking throughout the whole movie though, I won't shut up. xD

Do you think it will stay true to the book?
I read through the script sides and they actually seem pretty close to the book, so I'm really happy about that. But I thought I read something about Edward telling Bella he's a Vampire. Just. No. That's now how it goes! And somewhere in it Bella makes a joke with the Cullens and Edward and the rest laugh about it. That kinda annoyed me a liiittle. 'Coz if I remember rightly Edward didn't find any of her Vampire jokes funny, lol. I dunno...

Breaking Dawn Speculation:

Are you planning on buying this book as soon as it's out?
Friggin' yes!

Do you think Bella will be turned into a vampire finally?
I bloody well hope so, lol. Must. Have. Happy. Ending.

Do you think she and Edward will get married?
Yesss. I hope so.

Do you think Jacob might imprint in this book?
He better! Poor Jake got the short end of the stick, I hope he finds someone. :)

Who do you think Bella will end up with : Edward or Jacob?
Edwarrrd!

Do you think it will be a happy, sad, or shocking ending?
HAPPY DAMMIT.

Who do you think will be the villain(s) of the book this time?
I dunno...the Volturi, maybe? I don't want a Cullen/Werewolf war. :(

How would you feel about a possible vampire / werewolf cross?
That would be...interesting, to say the least!

Will Charlie find out Edward is a vampire?
Hmmm...dunno about that.

Will the vampires and werewolves continue the truce they had in Eclipse?
I don't knowwww. I don't really wanna make up theories lol, I just want to read the book! Augh!

If anyone, who do you think will die in this book?
Nobody, dammit! Well, apart from the bad guys. And not Jake! *looks at previous Twilighter's answer* If he does, I'll cry! LOL I dunno. He better not!

For a twist: what would you think if Edward was somehow turned human?
I guess that would be good...dunno. That's impossible though...right?

Do you think Jacob will be over Bella by the end of the book?
I don't know. I hope he moves on. Dammit Jake better get a happy ending!

What do you most want to happen in Breaking Dawn?
A happy ending. xD

What's your dream ending?
Wasn't there a similar question..?

(A Few Last Things:)

In which book did you like Bella's character best?
Uhh all of them? *shrugs*

How about Edward's?
All of them. Well I didn't like him for a little while in New Moon, the fool! But all is forgiven. xP

Jacob's?
All. Jake rocks. Of course I was pissed at somethings he did, but give the guy a break! Lol.

Alice's?
All of them! She's the best, lol.

If it were possible...who would you most want to meet in person?
Farout I can't choose LOL. Edward...Jake! And Alice! And Jasper! And Bella! ...
