WE NEED MORE STAFF!!! (Especially translators and experienced editors/qcers) {RELEASES} 1.

I'm not crying...

In case you have been wondering where we've been the past few weeks, I'm back in school. *crowd cheers* But on the flip side, I am taking Anatomy and Physiology this semester. Which to those of you who have never taken this devil class, it is one that just a glance at the book sitting on my floor makes me curl up in the fetal position crying and holding my teddy. And I am NOT talking cute quiet tears that shake my shoulders - oh no - I mean BIG FAT uncontrollable waves of sobs that penetrates the walls and causes all of my neighbors to believe that someone is actually dying in my home. So in case you are wondering where I am - I'm busy. Questions you may be having by this point: What is this frackin password? We've had several of our loyal and awesome fans email/comment about how much they wanted the password system back in place because they actually enjoy the hunt. Many told us that they would gladly shower us with cupcakes if we brought it back. So while...

A Dream Come...True?

Image
Whew! This past month has been hectic and wonderful. Here in a few weeks my babies are all going to be starting school. I can't believe my eldest is starting kindergarten! Time flies far too fast. So, the last night I had a fantastic dream in which I was at a masquerade ball. It's always been a personal dream of mine to go to a ball and dance the night away. Anyway, I was standing at the top of stairs (like so many teen dramas) sparkling as some mystery hand takes the shawl that is covering my beautiful dress up. The spotlight turns on to me and I shield my eyes from the sudden shock of the bright light. As my eyes adjust I look down and all eyes are on me and my fabulous costume. I spot my date across the room and give a small smile and wave, when suddenly the Star Wars Throne Room song plays. Wha?! I think to myself this can't be right and as I look down trying to figure out why this strange music would be playing for my dream entrance to a ball; when I realize t...

Happy 4 years and my point is... elephants are cute too!

By *pronouncedyou I never knew elephants can be  so cute. I don't like animals that are larger than me, So I'll never go near an elephant. However, when I saw an elephant in the drama that I was watching last night, I just couldn't help thinking how adorable it was when it came to the rescue of it's owner. The cuties part EVER is when the elephant was walking and nibbling on a huge leaf ( don't know what kind of leaf it was but it was huge o-o ..). ~toppichu Hey everyone! I've abducted toppichu's post~ mwhahaha! ;) Anywho - HAPPY 4 YEARS TO FORBIDDEN GARDEN!!!!!!!! I am so overly happy and touched by everyone's love, devotion, and support over the years.

I'm going to be gone (starting today) on a much needed Adult-time vacation. (I love my kids, but this is a vacation with adults! A...
