Flamingos + Another Segment of "In the Township"

Hai!

Hmm, let's see what today's new item is! ;D

*goes to JMC*

No new items! :(

*goes to JMF*

New item! :)


What?

Um ok then. o-o

Reminds me of that soccer fundraising thing. Like where soccer players "tagged" other people's front lawns to their houses by putting plastic flamingos (like this item o.o) there. "Flocking", it's called. Yeah, reminds me of that.

It also reminds me of that flamingo in Crystal Sands.

Now here is a tiger in Jamaa Township. ;3

I cut off what the arctic wolf said in the second-to-last picture. 
I really don't know what this is. XD

X3

Oh yeah. I found a nice eagle! I haven't seen a nice eagle in so long! Like really. Usually when I go to Jamaa Township, I only see scamming eagles. But no. This eagle has prevented people from falling for the other scamming eagle's scam. The eagle I'm about to um show you has stopped other people from falling for the "send me gift, you get working code" scam. Yay, a good person! o3o
*claps*

c:

Special post coming up next! That has absolutely nothing to do with AJ! ;)

So yeah. Stay tuned!

*evil laugh* >:P

Peace!




Flamingos! :O

XD

Flamingo photos were taken by me. Yes. So many flamingos. Yes.

Hopping Fireflies in your Den

Hiya peoples! :3

I have a new charger now. Yay. c:

Been busy earlier today. ^.^'

Um ya.

225 post. Wahoo! :P

Anywho, today's new item is sold in Epic Wonders.
It's another returning item. Boring! Let me make this interesting somehow because I'm bored right now.

K.


So what AJHQ basically wants you to do is...

1. Go to Epic Wonders in Coral Canyons.

2. Buy the Firefly Necklace. (AJHQ strongly believes that fireflies are blue circles. #AJHQ-LOGIC)

3. Oh, you is nonmember!?!?! (AJHQ: OMGG GIT YERZELFIE A MEEMBAHSHIP RITE NAO OR DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

4. I totally wasn't exaggerating there. ;)

5. Go to Sarepia Forest (aka that place with all them trees and nature stuff).

6. Kidnap some poor, innocent fireflies that are natuve to Sarepia Forest.

7. Stuff them into your Firefly Necklace.

8. It won't open!?!?! (AJHQ: YOU IZ WEAK. GIMME UR MONIEZ NAO OR DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

10. You basically are mean to the virtual fireflies.

AJHQ: ZOMGG WHERE IZ NUMABH 9!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

K. 

So what is your backstory about these Firefly Necklaces?

None of that story made ANY sense whatsoever.

Okie.

So then. I was bored.

So then. I went to the New Year's Party.

Weird hopping wolves everywhere. O-O
Yeah, not really.

Frosty the Snowman! :3
And shrunk him. O.O

Now here's something weird that happens when you click to see where someone is. And they're at a den. Why "den________'s Den" I have no idea. O.o
That username doesn't exist. denMesha336 doesn't exist, AJHQ.

AJHQ: I DUN CAIRE. GIMME YER MONIEZ OR ELSE CHU DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Haha. Precious is trying to be AJHQ. :3)

PRECIOUS: I HAT YOU AL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111

Precious, your writing sucks. c;

PRECIOUS: NANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANANA

*throws marshmallows at the Precious creature nn*

Marshmallow cookies.

Whelp, now bye.

Don't ask. I, too, have no idea what this post actually is.

O.O

A Bouncy Tour :3

Hey, it looks like I was able to attend the party full of bouncing fun! :3

O3O

So here's a tour of it! X3

The Shop:
The items:
These probably pop easily, so I advise you to stay cautioned when you are using your tiger, wolf (basically any animal with sharp claws- and teeth too, I guess).

If you are too much of a coward to bounce or you're just too much of a lazy bum, then you can chillax (chill and relax) over here. (Well, except if you want to buy them for yourself to use in your own den. But then you would've left already... Beats me! XD)

Balloons! :B (<-- dat face tho)
BALLOONIES!!!!!!! >8U

Tehe.

Anywhoozies.................

Let's see what happens when Enchanted enters the bouncy castle. (Observe, children!)

Well, I answered my own question! XD

The only way to stop bouncing will be to click an action on those action buttons. Except for "hop". You are already bouncing once you're inside the bouncy castle. Hence the name, "bouncy castle!" X3

Let's explore now. (Actually just Enchanted, but you can dream, I guess. c:)

Slides! Whoa! :O XD
Fun with happy and hyper strangers! ;P
The emoticon is covering up Enchanted entire body! (Well, almost!) :O
Tsk, tsk. This crazy ol' bunny sure likes to go down slides backwards. :3

Well, I still left out some surprises in this party. Like go to this party with the AJ sound turned on. And go inside the bouncy castle. Amusing fun! ^w^

Hope you enjoyed this tour!

Okay, I'll leave now. X3

'Later.

New Jamaa Journal Updates

Hiya, Jammers! :)

Today's Thursday. Oh look! AJHQ finally made a new Jamaa Journal! Let's check it out! ;D

Oh look, children. Pet pandas are in the Diamond Shop just like every other new animal.

If you know anything about unreleased/hacked-into items on Instagram, then you probably know about this guy called "ajinsider"/"ajinsider1". Throughout this series of updates, he/she has posted some mysterious items and such things. Before they were released officially on AJ. And now those things are released. That person is a psychic! :O (just kidding, probably just hacked into AJ's software or whatever thing)

Here is what a pet panda can look like (cute! ^w^).:
Kawaii! *o*

Next page, children.
Go on the Daily Explorer to learn more information about "AJ adopting a real-life panda". Basically, AJHQ wants you to waste all your diamonds and gems by getting many pet pandas. (Yeah, it's something about if there's a certain amount of Jammers getting pet pandas, then AJHQ will adopt a real-life panda.)

I know that AJHQ should adopt the panda either way (if there's enough Jammers or not), but then again. Spending the diamonds could give AJHQ more money. Which would be a higher chance of AJHQ having enough money to afford adopting a panda. Eh, I don't know.

I wonder if you automatically bounce in the Bounce House Party.. (It should be called "Bouncy House Party", but oh well.) Tell me if you do or don't in the comments below! Thanks.

Moving right along now.
Another den-styled den voting thing! (I bet the results will be like the same thing that happened last time.)
*clicks "Vote Now" button*
Choose between a Paint Studio, a Pizza Parlor, or a Deep Space-themed den.

I think I'll vote for the Paint Studio one. It reminds me of Peck a bit, too! ^-^

But I think the Pizza Parlor one will win. It's like the Icecream Parlor one in the previous den voting thing. And that one won first, so...

Which one is your favorite? Comment that below, too.

Okay, next!
Solve the puzzle to find out what the new animal will be! (It's almost finished in this one.)

Here is what the puzzle looks like once it's finished.:
Ooh, another flying animal! Owls! ^o^

But knowing AJHQ all throughout 2014, I bet 90+% that this new animal will be members-only and in the Diamond Shop sold for 10 diamonds, Cuz that's AJHQ. Sorry to crash all your hopes and dreams. :/

Oh. You can blame me if this new animal is sold for EVERYONE. (Which means everyone can get it- nonmember; gems.)

Lol like that'll ever happen! XD

Well, maybe AJHQ changed it's plans for 2015. I don't know. .-.

Yay, owls! .^. (<-- tries to make owl face)

So that's the Jamaa Journal!

Oh yeah. Please report this um creature here for inappropriate behavior. Thanks.
So this creature showcased in this screenshot here was saying a few perverted comments using Restricted Chat substitute words. So then after I took this screenshot and reported him, he changed colors to be bright green, And then he wanted everyone to trade him. (He had a Sky High arcade game on trade, actually.) Nothing really bad about that, though. There was no gifting, flashing, trusting, or anything like that (aka SCAMS). A few minutes later, he just left.

Um ya. I really don't know what else to say about this guy creature. O.O

He was saying inappropriate, perverted things in the beginning. (Sorry, didn't feel like taking a screenshot of what he said.) So, uh, report him anyways.

Wait. Is this creature even a guy!? The wolf's name ends in "girl", and the other animal (a seal) looks really girly.

Yeah... I don't know. O.o

I have to leave to do less-fun things now (aka homework >:I).

And studying.

And then other stuff.

Uh.....

Bye.

Uh Hi

Hi, my cute puppies! (Yes, you are now all cute puppies. Cutepuppiness magic! :3)

I have concluded that................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. *dramatic music plays* ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
............ During the stupid schoolweek, I probably won't make new posts. Every. Single. Day. And I probably won't post/comment/idk what else in March. (I'll explain more as that dreadful month approaches. Ugh.) So uh bare with me, guys.

So anywhoozies...............................

CUTE PUPPIEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Eww, the screenshot's blurry. *eye twitches* o.e)

Today's new item is a Snow Patch.

It snowed where I live all day yesterday. It's going to be approximately 5 degrees Fahrenheit when I leave for school tomorrow morning, Ya, cold. Not really though. In other places, it's like 0 degrees (F) or colder. Heh. *sips hot cocoa with marshmallows* Mmmmm :P 

The Fahrenheit system is so much more complicated than the Celsius system! Like in Celsius, it's straightforward. 0 degrees=below freezing. But no, 32 degrees Fahrenheit=below freezing. Ugh! >~<

Anywho, I got a Buddy Request from a nice author (all of them are nice uh yeah) on the great blog (Animal Jam Community). It made me smile. :)

So..... Let's see how Enchanted and Precious react to this item! ^-^

ENCHANTED
(My good ol' buddy entered my den during this. XD)

(What Enchanted says)

(What Enchanted thinks)

O.O

Okay... *walks away from Enchanted* Onto Precious.

Who is still an "evil, bloody Santa". (I hope she didn't kill Santa... O-O)

Why so aggressive!? :'O

Precious, stop scarring the minds of rich, snobby children! (This was in Aldan, so self-explanatory.) >:O

Well............................................................. (not again with the ......s)

I really should leave and like, I don't know, study for the stupid quizzes I have. But I don't wanna.

So now into some probably balderdash to you guys! (I told you to check out that blog! ^^)

Mk.

So yesterday, I did this activity in science class where we had to collect facts from our classmates and see if any of us had similarities. So yeah. One of the categories was about favorite band. Right? So there I am, going around class. I was the only one who put Imagine Dragons on there. Most of the girls (I only mostly checked the girls' lists) lists had One Direction. *eyes twitch o.e* No one likes Imagine Dragons that much in my class. Except for me (duh!). But when I saw my friend's, she had Coldplay. I like Coldplay. c:

So um yeah. I have a stupid vocab quiz in LAL on Friday (next class). And it's about stuff we (I) learned all the way back in September. And never reviewed until today (January). Ugh life! DX

I had to climb a wall in gym class today. After the 3rd time of climbing it (it had to be 3 times ugh), I lost my footing on one of those colorful grippy things. So as I fell like 2 feet, my shin hit one of those hard grippy things. My shin still hurts. Ouch. o.<

Um, what else?

Oh. I've been watching that anime, "Attack on Titan" lately. Just started watching it a few days ago, actually. Hehe. X3

(Don't kill me for saying this) It kinda reminds me of another show I just started watching, "The Walking Dead" (not an anime). 

So now you know why I randomly typed about zombies and titans being stuck in my head, a few posts ago.

The shows are violent, by the way. 

Heh, heh, heh. >:3

Congrattos to Panda! Your prediction (from all of them up on that post so far lol) for Chapter 26 was the most accurate. You win................  Bragging rights (XD)!

I really thought Gamer would get it. I really thought she would. But she didn't. *shrugs* Oh well.

I have most things planned out for the next chapter, so I might post it this weekend. Let's just say it'll be quite an interesting chapter! ^.^

I have to go finish my stupid work for school (homework) now. So, see ya!

Yeah. Now bye! *waves*

I'm Crying Inside

Well... Hi guys.

So... Before I go into what I actually am here to post about, uh... This post over on my friend's blog is so sweet. Oh my gosh! <3

Go HERE (<-- Yay, the thing worked this time XD)

So yeah. Anyways...

You guys. Oh my gosh! I want to just hug all of you! (But I kinda don't want to, so Precious and Enchanted and all my AJ OCs will hug you instead. X3)

=D


I bet most of you don't know what this actually means. (You don't.) 

(2 of them are Mesha but whatevehs.)

This... This means so, so, so, SOO much to me. This right here, in this picture above... Oh my gosh, I can't thank you guys enough for helping to start off the new year this amazingly. I really don't.

(Now over) 25,000 views and 10 followers to start off the new year!

Okay, now I'm going to be full-out serious here.:

I never, ever expected this. At all. I never expected getting over 25,000 pageviews or 10 followers. (I always expected me having just 1 less follower and never reaching that 10- haha.)

So in other words, this right here ^^, seemed like a fantasy world away to me. Like it would never come true. Like my dream, sort of speak. And it came true! :D

25,000 is just a quarter of 100,000! (That's a lot! ^o^)

And yeah. I bet most of you say the same thing as I did when you get a certain amount of pageviews. Like I get that. But... I don't know how to thoroughly explain this, but it's different to me. When I started blogging, I thought I'd be like one of those "fail blogs" (no offense intended- sorry) where nobody comments. So then I started commenting. On my own posts. Cuz I'm Cutepupios. And then I actually gained to have more and more commenters. And viewers. (Basically you guys.)

I feel so popular! (Okay, not really. XD)

I love you guys so much! (In the friends way- derr. X3) <3

And anywho, believe me guys. I really, really, really want to do a sort of celebration thing (whether it be a party or a contest or a giveaway) for this. (Like mini-milestone. In blogging in the blogosphere- credit Gamer for that word. XD). Lol.

However..................................................

The torture begins again tomorrow. (Yes, school=torture.) 

So the thing is..................

When school starts, I won't have time. (I mean it this time.) Actually, I'm a bit behind on a few things for school. And well yeah. I'm not a straight-A student or anything. (Or even a straight-A/B student.) And yes, I'll admit. At times, I feel that the idea of blogging all this fun stuff is more important than the more serious stuff in life (example: school).

Ugh, this is breaking my heart that I have to do this now. :'( </3

Ugh, will you guys even understand? (Probably not, but oh well.)

I have to focus on more important things than just blogging. Such as getting my grades up (yeah sure *sarcasm here*), and getting a type of volunteer work. (My family won't shut up about it. Gosh. :I)

And yeah. I'm in high school (believe it or not :/). And to be honest here, every single school day, I worry about how the day will affect me. In ways I bet none of you'll ever truly understand. (Except if you're like the same age as me. Um yeah.)

In other words, every day that there is this tortuous thing called "school", I get this thing called "stress."

Ha, hold on to it while you still can, kids. Do your teachers even teach you? Like go through the lessons. So you can at least get a basic grip of understanding it? Well, guess what?

Mine don't. This is basically an average class on an average school day for me.: complete do-now on iPad; take notes on Keynote (PowerPoint) slides- that can be over 70 slides long; get a 7-page packet for homework (2 days till due); get a quiz next class; get a test the class (or next if nice) after. (Basically my Bio class right there. <--) And sometimes instead of the 7-page packets, there are projects. (I hate projects with my life. More than essays. And man, I hate essays. I can't stand them. *even though I did get a 100 on my most recent one- haha*) Oh god. How am I gonna survive March!?!? *panics*

Ahem. What I'm trying to say is, well, um.................................................

When school starts again, I probably will be too busy to post. So no. I won't be stalking my blog and your blogs like a gazillion times a day. (So heartbreaking, I know.)

So no more 2+ posts a day. No more joking and stalking fun. (Except for weekends- maybe..)

But I'll still try to comment (but less though) on your blogs.

However, if it comes too far...........

I might have to take a blogging hiatus. Which probably also means an AJ hiatus. Honestly I don't know if you guys have realized it yet, but the most time I spend on AJ is for 2 things.:

(A) To make a post.
Or
(B) Hang out with my very close AJ buds. (Most of which are you guys.)

So yeah. I guess this is a kinda heads-up if you suddenly don't see me around the blogging side of things for a while.

And to make it less of a chance of me blogging often still, I'm gonna try to start being more active on my DeviantART. Like I want to start submitting some artwork, drawing new ones, favoriting (is that how it's spelled?) some, etc.

So well yeah. My DA name is BlueBlazingSpirit (click it to go there <--) Thank you so much for 5 watchers, too!

Lol. I'm making this far more dramatic than it actually is.

Whelp, I guess that's it. I don't know when my next post will be. So.............

Until next time!
Goodbye for now, friends.
