I got a comment on my blog yesterday (my first comment, hooray!!!) that I shouldn't use "cuz" instead of "because" and should use bigger words cuz I obviously know them--sorry, because I obviously know them from reading and rereading Ma's New College Dictionary!!! Oh, and in my newfound and expansive eloquence I should endeavor to refrain from utilizing such a plethora of exclamation points. Yah. Whoopee. Fantastic.
Nah, just kidding!!! I'm trying to write the way I talk, and I almost always say "cuz" instead of "because" even though I know it's wrong. As for the exclamation points, I just love them to death and it seems wrong to only use one at a time!!! Heh!!!
By the way, Dr. Crisp says our town's high school has an excellent basketball team for girls. Not only that, but most colleges have women's teams, and there's professional league for women just like they have for men!!! I wasn't thinking about college yet, but if I can major in basketball and play on TV, I would love that!!!
Illustrator Challenge
Artists can create illustrations of me or the events in my life, as long as they are appropriate for my young readers. Any previous post on this blog can be illustrated. If I like an image that goes well with a post on the blog, I may add a small thumbnail version along with credit to the artist and a link to the full-sized image. Images of me posted elsewhere should link back to the "Giant Girl Rampages" blog.
If you want to draw a picture of me, here's what you need to know:
I'm 15 years old and almost (but not quite) 18 feet tall. Mrs. Appleton says I'm very pretty and well proportioned, which I guess is a complement. I'm not super thin or anything but I think I'm in pretty good shape.
I have dirty blonde hair that's kind of wild because I trim it with Pa's old hedge trimmers. My eyes are green as the ocean, as Ma always said, but I wouldn't know because I've never seen an ocean. My skin is tanned from being out in the sun a lot but not too dark and (usually) not burned.
I wear a blouse and skirt-shorts that my mother quilted for me three years ago. They look like a big patchwork cuz she used many squares of fabric and cowhide. I've grown since then, so the skirt-shorts no longer come down to my knees, my blouse is way tight, and there's a bit of skin showing in between. I don't have any shoes (and that makes me sad to think about so I usually don't).
If you do draw my picture, send the link in a comment so I can post it to my blog. Thanks!!!

ReplyDeleteThe comments for this post were disturbing.
ReplyDeleteWhoever was talking about your feet was indeed being gross. I don't understand some people. How can you want attention so badly that you don't care if you're being inappropriate and/or annoying, not to mention all the negative responses you're going to get from people? Are these people needy or do they not care about anyone else? Maybe both.
The only good thing about this was that it made people less willing to be anonymous posters. =)
I agree with ladynerd (what's your real name, I mean, you shouldn't label yourself just because you have good intellect). But for the record, I don't think it's really about attention. There are people who have foot fetishes, and are indeed weird. I mean, it's feet! Freakin feet! Who'd wanna (I'm not typing it, you know what it is, you read the comment) do that anyway? Really!? The same stuff that you put shoes over...Melly. Here's a history lesson for ya. If you didn't know, there were women in Ancient China who once had their feet bound, identified as concubines. The practice wasn't bannned until sometime last century. It supposedly made them seem attractive (I'm not sure how, but it sounds like the first case of accepted foot fetish to me).
