Blogathon 2007 Badge

WOOT!

Crystal blogged @ 6:00am feeling accomplished and needing sleep.

#47) Hmm… milk and cereal tastes disgusting if you leave it out too long (I guess this is Quick Tip Number Three?). Omg… just got interrupted by a ten minute long survey phone call over some land claim in the city. Who calls at this time of the night…er morning?!

Crystal blogged @ 5:40am feeling irritated.

#46) SPONSOR LOVE! Thank you LatteGirl, my fellow Canadian blogger hailing frm Quebec. My total for Amnesty International is now $35.00! Sweetness.

Crystal blogged @ 5:00am feeling the morning euphoria.

#45) I can’t believe I’m writing the last set already. How long ago this began it seems. And I just realized that I did something really REALLY stupid. I was coming over to blog between episodes of Without A Trace and L&O, without a trace of intelligence to check the homepage. So I’ve been saving the drafts instead of publishing them @$#@#$$%.

Crystal blogged @ 4:31am feeling like a troll.

#44) You know what this means? FOUR POSTS LEFT. Crazy. Let’s talk about something. Hmm… saw Raise Your Voice the other day on disc, it turned out to be one of Hilary Duff’s better feel-good movies. The pairing was cute too!

Crystal blogged @ 4:00am feeling warm and fuzzy.

#43) Forty-three is a special number because… erm…. uh…. right I give up. FORTY THREE POSTS BABY! Almost there!

Crystal blogged @ 3:34am feeling like her blogs are turning into Twitter updates.

#42) SPONSOR APPRECIATION! Thank you Jen! I shall add you to my sidebar. My total is now at $25.00. Hurrah!

Crystal blogged @ 2:55am feeling good.

#41) Ooo look I’m in the 40s! Well done Crystal. I shall reward myself a cookie. Drats! Running low now…

Crystal blogged @ 2:40am feeling cookie-less.

#40) ICON POST! To be honest, Boo is so darn adorable she scares me sometimes. Monsters Inc was such an awesome movie, no? Pixar definitely out did itself that time!

Crystal blogged @ 1:55am feeling like a pixel (is that possible?).

#39) Let me tell you about the last allnighter I pulled. It was either for French Journals or that darn Theory of Knowledge essay (ya know, philosophy, old dead guys, existentialism and all that jazz). Back then, I swore I’d never do it again, yet here I am. But this is for a good cause (Amnesty International)! Then again… passing TOK 11 might have been a good cause too…

Crystal blogged @ 1:40am feeling philosophical.

#38) I swear my posts are getting shorter and shorter. That’s not healthy is it? *goes on to hum Keep Holding On*

Crystal blogged @ 1:00am feeling drained.

#37) Roses are red. Violets are blue. I love my money. Much more than you.

Crystal blogged @ 12:30am feeling silly.

#36) I need coffee. Where’s my coffee?

Crystal blogged @11:59pm feeling like having coffee.

#35) It’s close to midnight. Here’s my article on how to effectively pull an all-nighter. Hope it helps you! We’re almost there Blogathoners! Keep up the great work. Once again, I’m writing for Amnesty International. Click on any one of the banners on this blog to sponsor me. It’ll be greatly appreciated.

Crystal blogged @11:39pm feeling appreciated.

#34) Who watches Law and Order: Special Victims Unit? I’ve been addicted to the show ever since my SVU-crazy friend introduced it to me two years ago. I wasn’t used to the crimes they covered at first, but I grew attached to the sub-plots over the years. I even caught my mum watching it a few times, only to hastily change the channel when I walk in. It’d be great if Elliot and Olivia ended up together!

Crystal blogged @11:05pm feeling deprived of SVU.

#33) Favourite HP character: Severus Snape
Favourite HP ship: Ron + Hermione, Lily + Severus
Saddest HP Death: Colin Creevey (”He was tiny in death”)
Favourite HP adult: Professor McGonagall
Favourite HP movie: Goblet of Fire
Favourite HP book: Deathly Hallows

Crystal blogged @ 10:35pm feeling Harry Potter crazy.

#32) ICON POST! Oops… this entry is a bit late. But good news, I finished my chemistry test! It only took me the entire day…. *sigh* no more acids and bases until the Provincial next month. I still have a bunch of law homework … I wish the teacher would actually set a deadline instead of expecting us all to be diligent and angelic children!

Crystal blogged @ 9:47pm feeling exhausted.

#31) I have another sponsor! Thank so much Jaynee! I think I’ll put a section for this in the sidebar. I’m so excited! In other news, go see my entry on blogathon.org, I was mentioned in the I Will Survive contest. 15.5 hours down, 8.5 hours left! We’re almost there folks. Thank you again sponsors! (P.S. - Chem test going well, on the last section now)

Crystal blogged @ 9:27pm feeling extremely gracious.

#30) The second wave is about to start. Good luck Bloggers! I have some tips for you, as a 15 hour seasoned veteran haha.
BE ACTIVE - Participate in chats, games, comment on other blogs, return your comments, talk about the Blogathon with your family and friends.
BE OPTIMISTIC - Always keep a cheerful outlook, write happy entries, browse through your old entries and smile!
BE CREATIVE - Come up with some wacky theme and have fun with it! Create a personal goal to reach at the end of the Blogathon!

Crystal blogged @ 8:53pm feeling tired but optimistic.

#29) I can’t believe it! Someone sponsored me. Thank you so much Leigh. That was great motivation to keep writing. My total is now $10. WOOT! The fireworks are starting in two hours down by the beach. My entire family went, except me of course, left in front of the computer to blog for Amnesty International haha. Nothing exciting happened in the last half hour, except lots of headache over chem. I won’t blog again until I finish the silly test. Deal!

Crystal blogged @ 8:26 pm feeling happy with her $10 pledge from Leigh.
