			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been looking around at a few sites, trying to find a new wordpress theme that I like. It sounds easy but its really not. I&#8217;ve looked at all sorts of designs but none of them just &#8220;scream out to me&#8221;. I&#8217;m looking for a theme that as soon as I see it, I&#8217;ll know its the one I want. I haven&#8217;t even come across one theme that&#8217;s even really caught my attention though. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sigh.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  It&#8217;s kind of upseting and a bit frustrating too. What&#8217;s super frustrating about all this is that I&#8217;m running out of sites to look at! I&#8217;ll try adn keep looking though. If you know anywhere or anyone who offers free and cute wordpress themes, comment please! I could really use the help! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>In recent days, I&#8217;ve also become really addictive to Tumblr. I sign on at least once a day if not more! When i sign on I&#8217;m online for a few hours at a time! I follow a lot of people; like 44. Only 21 people follow me though. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sad.gif' alt=':[' class='wp-smiley' />  I hope I get more followers!</p>
<p>Mostly I reblog things posted by other people. Sometimes I post up my own things though. Sometimes. I like doing a little bix of everything! Funny thing is that I even convinced one of my friends to join Tumblr. Only a few days after I joined and was talking to my friends about it, and then one of my friends joined! Now she loves it almost as much as I do! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>If you&#8217;re lost on the whole Tumblr thing, I&#8217;ll fill you in! Tumblr is kind of like Twitter. The only difference between them is Twitter is for links and words. You can&#8217;t post images, music, videos, etc on Twitter like you can on Tumblr. Tumblr is like the Twitter for everything twitter can&#8217;t have! you know, images and stuff! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' />  I love it! If you like twitter, I really say you should give Tumblr a try! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Speaking of Twitter, I read something there this afternoon. it was a quote and I thought it was really inspiring. Actually, believe it or not, its because of this quote that I got the inspiration to write a blog! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  The quote was this,</p>
<blockquote><p>Today is the youngest you will ever be.</p></blockquote>
<p>It was said by <a href="http://twitter.com/theburiedlife/status/18176066381">@theburiedlife</a>. I can&#8217;t really explain it, but the quote was just so inspiring. I really wanted to share it with you. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/love.gif' alt='♥' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<p>And for comments, I still have 7 to reply too! I haven&#8217;t really replied to any. I&#8217;m super sorries! Forgive me for not replying right away. I haven&#8217;t really been only much. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sad.gif' alt=':[' class='wp-smiley' />  With summer vacation and all I&#8217;m hanging out at the mall, spending time with friends, and just over all hanging out! i love not having to worry about icky school! I&#8217;m so glad for the break! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  its enjoyable!</p>
<p>The worst thing happened the other day though. My site went down! My host&#8217;s host, suspended me for a chumped up charge. AJ (my host) got it fixed though and my site was back up within 48 hours. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' />  I was so glad to know my site was back up! I know I don&#8217;t blog all the time or anything, but it makes me feel good to know that my site is still up and active. So I just had to send a shout out to AJ for getting my website back up so quickly! Thankies AJ! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be replying to comments super soon! So be expecting me!! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/kyaa.gif' alt=':squeel:' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<blockquote><p>
01. Do you know anyone or anyplace that offers cute wordpress themes?<br />
02. Do you have a Tumblr?<br />
03. have you considered getting a Tumblr?<br />
04. What do you think of that quote?<br />
05. Are you mads at me for not replying to your comment? -sniffles-<br />
06. Did you notice my site was down?<br />
07. If so, did you miss me?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow! It feels like it&#8217;s been forever since I last wrote a blog! For anyone who follows me on twitter, you know I&#8217;ve been struggling to figure out what to blog about. Nothing too interesting has happened really so I haven&#8217;t really had anything of great interest to blog about. No one wants to read a boring blog, right? Exactly!</p>
<p>I did finally figure out what to blog about though. I need your help! I&#8217;m kind of getting sick of this site theme I have up. I was wondering if you guys were too? Should i change it? If so, what kind of style should I go with? I mean, should i stick with something cute and simple like this or should I go with something dark and classy? I just can&#8217;t decide. But maybe I shouldn&#8217;t change it at all? Yeah, I&#8217;m really stuck here. I want to change it&#8230;I think, but I have no idea what I should change it too! I&#8217;m just at a total loss. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sigh.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  Anyone wanna help me out?</p>
<p>And has anyone noticed I&#8217;ve become addicted to tumblr? haha It&#8217;s so not my fault! I only follow like 21 people and I don&#8217;t get many posts going through my tumblr but I always seem to find like 50 different things to reblog and like a million more to piost up! It&#8217;s crazy but I love it! Does anyone have this tumblr obsession problem?</p>
<p>Also, I&#8217;m looking to advertise more people! So if you or someone you knows is looking for advertisding, send them over here! I seem to have a pretty active website and too my surprise I get quite a few visitors coming in and out of here. I get about 100+ visitors a month. This month so far I&#8217;ve gotten 225 hits! Those are unique visitors! I never expected that! I didn&#8217;t know my site was that amazing or interesting or anything.</p>
<p>Seriously, when i built this site I expoected it to be a fluke with the only visitors being me and a few select friends and maybe a random drop through once in a while. But this is way different! 225 visitors! Sorry, I just can&#8217;t get over that. That&#8217;s a lot!</p>
<p>So sorry for the short blog! I just wanted to get a few points out there and get some help with the new theme! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Thanks guys!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve joined the FaceBook and Tumbr bandwagon!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' />  I never thought I would but my friend <a href="http://sprinklexo.info/" target="_blank">Taylor</a> has been trying to convince me since she got an account to join FaceBook. My other friend <a href="http://www.blue-paper.org/" target="_blank">Mel</a> has been convincing me to join Tumbr for a long while now. She really enjoys it! They both love the two sites, finally today i gave in and joined. I&#8217;m not too active on either site yet but I did just get one of them today! I had a FaceBook account but never used it. I guess I will now though. Give me a chance and i&#8217;ll become more and more active! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>If you have a Tumblr account, follow me or recommend people for me to follow! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  <a href="http://candy-spaceman.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">Candy-Spaceman on Tumblr</a> That&#8217;s me! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' />  So follow!</p>
<p>If you have a FaceBook and want to be friends, I could use some more! I would really like to make some more friends on there too! I think the more friends you have the more active you are! Its no fun to be active someplace if no one is interested! Right? <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  So add me or have me add you! <a href="http://www.facebook.com/spaceman.dance" target="_blank">Spaceman.Dance on FaceBook</a> That&#8217;s me! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' />  So follow!</p>
<p>Offline news, my last day of school is June 11th. I can&#8217;t wait for summer! I could really use the break! The end of the school year is always the most stressful I think! There are so many tests and things to turn in! So many last minute things to do! Plus year books come out this week! I hope I&#8217;ll have enough time to get everyone to sign mine! I love yearbooks! They&#8217;re the best! I get one like every year!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not really sure what I&#8217;ll be doing this summer, if anything. I haven&#8217;t really made any plans. I&#8217;ll let you know what I come up with though! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Also, I&#8217;ve been writing more. I&#8217;m almost done writing my 8th novel! It has about 34 chapters right now. I&#8217;m aiming for at least 40! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' />  I can&#8217;t wait to be done! While I was grounded I was able to do <strong>a lot</strong> of writing! I had so much &#8220;free&#8221; time! I still have to type up my new chapters though. I haven&#8217;t finished doing that yet. It&#8217;s a lot of typing to do! That&#8217;s the part I&#8217;m not too thrilled about doing. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/no.gif' alt=':no:' class='wp-smiley' />  Too much typing!</p>
<p>Well, that&#8217;s my update! Not too long but not to short and it gets right to the point! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I have a lot of questions for you today though! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<blockquote><p>
01. Do you have a Tumblr account?<br />
02. If so, will you follow me?<br />
03. Will you recommend people for me to follow?<br />
04. Do you have a FaceBook?<br />
05. If so, will you add me as a friend or have me add you?<br />
06. When is your last day of school?<br />
07. Have you gotten year books yet?<br />
08. Do you have any plans for the summer?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I haven&#8217;t posted in a long time! The server was up and down and then I went away for my birthday! I&#8217;m <em>finally</em> 16! Did I mention all the tests for finals we had?! It&#8217;s been super busy lately! Dad had a big business trip too and we all wanted to go. So it was like a mini vacation and we went away for my birthday too! Plus I got grounded for like two weeks for failing two tests! That was real, real boring! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cry.gif' alt='T-T' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<p>April 4th to April 11th we went on my dad&#8217;s business trip with him. That was fun. We took a plane and saw a few sights while dad was working. It was a week away from school which was so awesome! We didn&#8217;t do anything really great to talk about or anything so I won&#8217;t go into details or whatever but we had fun. I really enjoyed the vacation! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  It&#8217;s not like we did much but it was just nice to get away from school and home life and all that yucky stuff! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/tongue.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<p>Finals for me ended May 21st. I&#8217;m so glad! They were really hard and so stressful! All the studying and other yuckies! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/dead.gif' alt='x.x' class='wp-smiley' />  It was killing me! I wasn&#8217;t getting any sleep at all!! I slept like all weekend and well into Monday morning. I was actually late for school that Monday! Woops! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sleepy.gif' alt='Zzzz' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<p>The on April 30th we got all the final exam tests back and ma and pa grounded me from May 1st to May 15th and couldn&#8217;t use the computer! It was really bad! I didn&#8217;t like it! I missed twitter and all! For a full two weeks I couldn&#8217;t use any electronics at all! All because of two bad marks on tests. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sad.gif' alt=':[' class='wp-smiley' />  It was bad! I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ve ever ben so bored before!! You know? There was no TV, no computer, no cell phone, no phone at all! All I could do was eat, sleep, read, or colour! it was so majorly boring!! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/argh.gif' alt=':pinch:' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<p>For my birthday, my sweet 16 <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' />  , they took me to the beach and we stayed at a hotel. We left for the beach May 14th and we&#8217;ll be back home May 16th. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  We&#8217;re in a hotel and everything! I&#8217;m having a blast! If I&#8217;m good, ma and pa said I might even be able to have a real sweet 16 party when school lets out! I&#8217;ll be able to invite anyone I want and do anything I want! I&#8217;m so planning it all out already! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/kyaa.gif' alt=':squeel:' class='wp-smiley' />  So exciting! But I have to be good or they won&#8217;t do it!</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t believe I&#8217;m 16 now!! I feel like I&#8217;m all grown up and stuff! You know? Isn&#8217;t it great?! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' />  My birthday was May 12th &#8211; Guess I forgot to say that! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  Now I&#8217;m trying to convince my parents to get me a car! I&#8217;ve already got my learners and all!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  If I&#8217;m lucky maybe they&#8217;ll say yes!~</p>
<p>Now though I&#8217;m just helping my friends a bit and catching up on stuffs that&#8217;s been going on. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  That&#8217;s fun I guess. I also have like 2 million comments to reply too! That may take me a while, you know? Lucky for me though I&#8217;m almost done replying to them all. I only have a few left! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  It&#8217;ll still take a while but I just have to sit down and get it done!</p>
<p>I really have to let everyone &#8211; my affiliates and friends &#8211; know that I haven&#8217;t forgotten about them! It would be really awful if they thought I forgot about them.  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sad.gif' alt=':[' class='wp-smiley' />  That would be terrible of me! So I don&#8217;t want anyone to think that! Plus, i don&#8217;t want anyone to think I&#8217;m dead yet. I&#8217;m not! I&#8217;m still here &#8211; promise! So if you haven&#8217;t heard back from me yet, you will be! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  I haven&#8217;t forgotten about any of you!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m also already working on my next blog! So watch out for that! I should have it done and posted soon. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Well, I&#8217;m not dead so you&#8217;ll be hearing back from me soon! Look out for me! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi everyone! You all missed me right?  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' />  I missed you guys too! Well, i think it&#8217;s official, I&#8217;ll probably update every ten days or so. This gives me time to actually have things of interest to write about!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' />  No one likes a boring blog.  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/no.gif' alt=':no:' class='wp-smiley' />  Lots happened though! Ok, no, not a lot. but some stuff happened! Some interesting stuff! I guess I should just shut up and tell you what was so interesting then huh?  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Well, we&#8217;re staart with the site stuff!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  I&#8217;m proud to say that on my last blog I got 10 comments!! I feel so proud! I actually didn&#8217;t think I was that interesting. Take into account though I did go and comment other peoples blogs but I didn&#8217;t know if they would comment back or even read my blog seriously at all! so I felt really proud about that!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' />  I mean, people actually care! yay!</p>
<p>Also there were some changes around the website! Encase you haven&#8217;t noticed, which is fine.  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  The changes aren&#8217;t big or anything. But never the less! I added a feed button, so you can subscribe to my amazing posts! The feed is with the totally cute FeedBurner! You can view the cute button at the top of the page under the welcome!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  Then I also got a neat FormSpring account! So I added the neat widget to the page as well! That though is in the side bar right under the comment box! So remember to ask me lots of questions! I like that.  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/kyaa.gif' alt=':squeel:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>And did I mention all my new affies and friends?!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />   So far we have <a href="http://heartedkind.info/" target="_blank">Sindara</a>, <a href="http://www.karlakay.net/" target="_blank">Karla</a>, and <a href="http://www.diannechinita.com/" target="_blank">Dianne</a>! They&#8217;re all really nice! Even though I don&#8217;t know all of them really well yet, I hope that during my time with this blog and website and as long as we&#8217;re friends of course that we&#8217;ll become really close! Like BFFs! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  Ok, so I like to make friends! I can&#8217;t help it!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/kyaa.gif' alt=':squeel:' class='wp-smiley' />  I&#8217;ve met a lot of other people too though! There&#8217;s a lot of them! They all seem really nice, which is super great!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Something a little less fun though, I did ad an affiliates apply page. This is where people can apply to be affies with me! That&#8217;s the fun news! The less fun news is rules.  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sad.gif' alt=':[' class='wp-smiley' />  They're simple though! In my blog travels I came to learn that many sites that accepted affiliates had rules also. Some of these rules made sense, I found some others did not. So I went with these 5 select and simple rules. So affilaites if you would read them over! From what I've seen so far though, everyone's following them! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  But just so you all know the rules or guildlines, here's a copy!</p>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li>I will not accept Piczo sites. Any other website or free host is fine!</li>
<li>You do have to link me on every page. I do the same for you. So it's fair!</li>
<li>Remember to comment my blog whenever you can! I'll do the same and if I don't you can come yell at me!</li>
<li>You can apply with multiple sites if you want.</li>
<li>I do not have link exchanges at this time. Only affiliates.</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p>They're fair right?</p>
<p>I don't like piczo - too many pop-ups. They're everwhere! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/blank.gif' alt='O.O' class='wp-smiley' />  Then for the linking, I do link you guys on every page. You're my friends and I want everyone to know who you are. Don't you want everyone to know me too?  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/confused.gif' alt=':?' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Commenting the blog, this lets me know that you're alive and still care! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  I care about you and your life! And guys, try and make the comments worthy! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' />  I would rather not see "<span class="subject">[Sweet Spade] Please moderate: &#8230;.&#8221; in my email and get all excited like I do only to find the comment is a sentense or two long. My comments are longer then that, put a little effort into it! I&#8217;m not asking for a speech, book report, or some 10 paragraph reply! I just want to see a little effort, like it took you more then a minute. Is that too much to ask?  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sad.gif' alt=':[' class='wp-smiley' />  I'm just asking you to show me that you care. I give you good length comments. So you could do the same for me too. And this goes for all visitors, affiliates, and...and everyone! Only comment if you have something real to say, aka have more then a 2 sentense comment! Please and thank you!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  </span></p>
<p><span class="subject">Finally, multiple sites, I don't see the harm in it. Of course, don't apply with all 50 of your websites please! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/blank.gif' alt='O.O' class='wp-smiley' />  I don't have that much room! 2 or 3 sites is the max, ok? <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span class="subject">Yes, you read right but I guess you already knew this rule right? lol If you look around a bit you'll see I only have an affiliates box. I'm looking for friends after all, not hits. Hits aren't any fun if you don't have friends. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sigh.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  So, affiliates and friends only! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p>So see, these rules aren't too hard are they? <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  If you have any questions or some disappointment (I hope not!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/blank.gif' alt='O.O' class='wp-smiley' />  ) then let me know! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  We can work something out, ok?  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Now for the off site stuff! I gues out of school soon!! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  No, not for the year. For Spring Break! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  I'm so excited!! Our vacation starts on April 2nd (no school that day - yay!) but ends April 11th. So come the 12th I'll have to go back to icky school!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sigh.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  Until then though, I have like 3 major tests this week! One in History (The History oif France)...ew. I don't like history!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/no.gif' alt=':no:' class='wp-smiley' />  Then I have a PE exam. I guess you can call that a test too. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sigh.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  I don't like PE either. Unless we're playing Volley Ball! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  I like that!!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' />  And lastly, I have a test in Language Arts. That's easy but still, it is a test and I don't like tests. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sigh.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  Yucky. So lots of studying to do - especially for icky history.  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/tongue.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>But the spring break is coming and that means fun! Lots of games and other fun stuff to do! It'll be great! Mum and Pa have been depating over the idea of going on vacation! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  I hope we do! It'll be lots and lots of fun! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I guess that's it for now! I'll try and blog again soon! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  You know...I'm actually in class right now on my cell.  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/wtf.gif' alt=':um:' class='wp-smiley' />  Yea, I was just gonna see if I could start a blog but i kind of already had one saved!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/kyaa.gif' alt=':squeel:' class='wp-smiley' />  Yippy!</p>
<p>...You know something...? I never realized I used so many smilies.  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/blank.gif' alt='O.O' class='wp-smiley' />  Sorry for the major smilie usage! lol</p>
<p>PS. I know there are a few comments I have yet to return. I haven't forgotten! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  I'll reply this after noon during lunch or when I get home from school!</p>
<p><strong>[EDIT]</strong></p>
<p>My friend posted this on twitter. I wasn&#8217;t sure why. I just kinda liked it.</p>
<blockquote><p>ι ℓσσк тσ тнє ѕтαяѕ αиd ωσиdєя нσω α мαи ℓιкє уσυ cσυℓd ωαит мє. вυт тнєи ι ѕєє уσυ αяєи&#8217;т α мαи αиd тσ уσυ ι αм σиℓу α gιяℓ. уσυ dσи&#8217;т ℓσνє мє αт αℓℓ. уσυ σиℓу ωαит мє.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was on one of me favorite social networks today, <a href="http://www.gaiaonline.com/profiles/?u=19691648" target="_blank">GaiaOnline</a>, and doing a bit of shopping in the marketplace. While shopping I came across the most <img src="http://a2.cdn.gaiaonline.com/gaia/members/ava/80/78/7553da0e12c7880_flip.png" alt="gaia" align="right" /> ridiculous thing ever!! You&#8217;ll never, in a million years, guess on what it was! You haven&#8217;t guessed yet? Ok, I&#8217;ll tell you. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Someone was trying to sell an item for 2,000,000,000 gold! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/blank.gif' alt='O.O' class='wp-smiley' />  I don&#8217;t make sense? Well I guess I wouldn&#8217;t. So I&#8217;ll explain why this is totally crazy and being irrational. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' />  See, this exact same item can be bought at the Gaia store for only 1,250 gold. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/regular.gif' alt='-_-' class='wp-smiley' />  So see, why would anyone in the right mind buy an item for 2,000,000,000 gold if they can buy it for just over 1,000? The fact is, not even an idiot is that&#8230;idiotic!    <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/wtf.gif' alt=':um:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I just couldn’t believe how funny this was!   <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/argh.gif' alt=':pinch:' class='wp-smiley' />   Why would someone even bother to sell it for that much? It’ll never sell! You know though, the truth is, people do ridiculous things like this all the time! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' />  They try and sell things for outrageous prices knowing that they’ll never sell. The funny thing is, the items never do sell and the seller just doesn’t seem to get why! What’s up with that? People can’t really be that stupid! &#8230;.Can they? <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/confused.gif' alt=':?' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Well, I guess it doesn’t really matter, does it? I just wanted to share. Maybe you got a good laugh out of it! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>But! I do have something really funny for you if you’re a fan of <em>Harry Potter</em> and have seen the new <em>Alice in Wonderland</em> movie. If so, keep reading. If you’re not familiar with either of these then you can either, keep reading, or just skip it. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So, my friend posted a tweet the other day relating to these two subjects. I found this tweet quite amusing.</p>
<blockquote><p>snape as a caterpillar = rofl</p></blockquote>
<p>Confused? I was too out first. So I asked her about it on IM later that evening. I shall explain!</p>
<p>The actor of Severus Snape of the <em>Harry Potter</em> series was actually the voice actor for the caterpillar in <em>Alice in Wonderland</em>. I didn’t know this! So, what’s so funny about this? My friend said when she was first told this, she thought it was funny because a clear image formed in her mind. What image?</p>
<p>She pictured Severus Snape’s head on a caterpillar body.  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/argh.gif' alt=':pinch:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Instantly I was lost in fits of giggles! I had to admit that it was very, very funny! Ridiculously funny! I still giggle every time I think about it. So much so that I just had to share it with you guys!!</p>
<p>Also, I went to a party today! Ok, I admit, it wasn’t really a party. It was actually just a small movie celebration thing. Just about everyone knows that the <em>New Moon</em> movie came out March 20th at midnight. I just had to go and buy it! I got this special edition one or something with all the neat bonus features and deleted scenes! It’s even got the coolest interviews and everything!! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cute.gif' alt=':3' class='wp-smiley' />  OMG! It’s so great! I just absolutely love it!</p>
<p>Yes, I do me <em>New Moon</em> as in part of the <em>Twilight</em> series. I’m like a major fan! Ok, so a lot of the characters seriously suck! <strong>But!</strong> Jacob is the cutest thing in town!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/love.gif' alt='♥' class='wp-smiley' />   I’m just like, in love!!  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/love.gif' alt='♥' class='wp-smiley' />   I can’t help myself! Plus, I’m a major drop for romance! Romance anything really! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/yes.gif' alt=':yes:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So I went right out at 11:30p, Friday night to buy it! Then I stayed up half the night watching it and all the special features, interviews, and deleted scenes. After that I watched <em>Twilight</em>.  <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/love.gif' alt='♥' class='wp-smiley' />   I just had to see it again! Though Jacob wasn’t in the first movie of the series much &#8211; somewhat upsetting. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sigh.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  But I liked the movie anyways! I watched all the awesome features there too!! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  So that made for a majorly great night!</p>
<p>Guess that’s all I have to blog about right now. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sigh.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  I know, me sad about it too. I wish I had more to say but really nothings happened. Schools been super lame! Family has been&#8230;normal for the most part I guess too. Everything interesting or of any interest at all, I wrote about. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/cry.gif' alt='T-T' class='wp-smiley' />  But! I’ll blog again soon! So stay tuned! <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/laugh.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> <!--_--></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I found this plugin the otherday, I thought it was great! Exactly what I was looking for, I couldn&#8217;t believe it!! You have no idea how happy I was! I had been searching for such a great plugin and this was just a miracle!! &#8230;or so I thought&#8230;</p>
<p>I spent over 24 hours stuggling to get it activated. After hours and hours of endless stuggling I finally asked a friend if I could borrow her email address to activate the plugin. I thought it would all be worth it. They say you have to work for the greater things in live, right? Boy was I wrong.</p>
<p>Upon finally getting the plugin activated I started to set it up. It seemed easy enough and I thought I was in heaven!! The plugin was great!! Better then anything I could have ever expected!!</p>
<p>This happiness did not last long though sadly. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sigh.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  As I soon put the coding into my sidebar. Well, upon looking at my site&#8217;s sadebar I came across the once amazing plugin gone bad&#8230; I saw this,</p>
<p class="center"><img src="http://i45.tinypic.com/1z3qtyt.png" alt="tacky" /></p>
<p><em>&#8220;Powered by Max Banner Ads&#8221;</em></p>
<p>I could understand they would want credit, but I have linked them neatly on my credits page. I looked at the coding, had a friend do it too hoping to find <strong><em>some</em></strong> way to remove the horribly tacky link. Everything on my site is perfect, neat, and origanized. That horrible THING just ruined my site. I&#8217;m ashamed to have even considered such a horrible thing.</p>
<p>After all the hours and trouble <strong><em>I</em></strong> spent with this stupid plugin I find this tacky link. I just wanted to speak on my disappointment and displeasure. I have never disliked anything so much in my life. I would never recommend this plugin, nor will I ever use it again. The tacky plugin has been removed from my site and all of my friends have decided not to use it either.</p>
<p>I couldn&#8217;t believe they would put that ugly and tacky link there! I understand it&#8217;s freeware but come on, it&#8217;s tacky, ugly, and just makes everything look awful!! It was really, really upsetting to find that there and after all the work and time I put into setting up this plugin. It was so upsetting and disappointing! I thought I was really getting something good for once, I guess I was wrong&#8230;</p>
<p>If anyone wants to know, the plugin is called <em>Max Banner Ads</em>. I don&#8217;t recommend using it unless you like the tacky ad right there. You can not move it or remove it sadly. <img src='http://www.sweetspade.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/sigh.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Did you all miss me? I missed you all too! I was gone a long time but I&#8217;m back now. I think for good this time too! Isn&#8217;t is great?! I&#8217;m real happy to have my site back. *huggles* I missed it a lot. Blogging on LiveJournal just wasn&#8217;t the same. I would start a blog but never finished. I guess after getting my own amazing domain like this I got too spoiled. *giggle* But now I have it back so I can blog a whole bunch more again!! Oh! I&#8217;m so excited!!</p>
<p>Right now Jennifer and I are working to finish the site. It shouldn&#8217;t take long. Of course the main problem right now if getting the ad code working. We had this problem last time though didn&#8217;t we? Well, we&#8217;re working super hard to get it fixed cause at the moment, I don&#8217;t have any ads on my site and I&#8217;m supposed to have <strong>two</strong>!! So that&#8217;s no good. We gotta fix that super fast! We&#8217;re working on it though. So we&#8217;ll have it fixed in no time at all!</p>
<p>On another note though &#8211; I got my site back!! I know, said it before but I can&#8217;t help it!! I missed it soooooooo much!!! *huggles site* And I missed blogging, not that much has happened really. Bleh! But things are better now cause my site loves me. *giggle*</p>
<p>And! And I&#8217;m updating all my web pages! Some of the pages here aren&#8217;t so accurate anymore and that makes me sad. So I&#8217;m re-reading them and giving them an update! Isn&#8217;t that great!? I hope the site&#8217;ll be done super quickly! I&#8217;m really excited to finish it after so long!!</p>
