Ahh...


     Hey Fairies! It’s Jade. I want to ask you guys something.  What did you do?  Not the fairies, but you clumsies out there.  What did you do after PH’s demise?  At first, I had followed a PH resurrection website, but once the website shut down, I just went kind of blank…  In late January, while I was giving Jade VanillaFlash a late Birthday wish (Her arrival day is January 4th) I discovered a website that is recreating ToonTown! I understand some of you might not care, but this ToonTown recreation has already launched an alpha world and are letting people play! (You need a special key though) These people do contests (though I have not yet seen one) that release keys so people can play.
 
     I think I will play ToonTown when it reopens.  Anyway, I left Club penguin a few years ago, and I didn’t want to come back (though I like CP) I watched people play Animal jam, Fantage, etc. I had lost my Build-a-bear account a year or so ago, and I didn’t want to do a new one.  I looked for website after website, but I found nothing. Nada. I only have Poptropica, add me at Bomb1109. Yes, Bomb1109.  I guess that's it.  I have ToonTown in mind, but until then, I think I might take a break from playing online games. Maybe I’ll rejoin Build-a-Bear.
 
I’m at a loss.
 
See ‘ya ‘round the waterfall,

Happy Fairy Friendship Festival!

So it's around that time of year again... Febuary is Friendship month! Before it's over, I wanted to give a quick nod to the Fairy Friendship Festival that usually occurred around this time (I forget the exact date).

At this time of year, the fluffiest heart fashions would arrive at the shops and fairies would send gifts to their friends to show their appreciation. I actually think the idea of the Post Office was genius, only fairies made it into a... not so great thing.

Members would have a heart headband from the Ballroom, and everyone would be in the festive, pre-Valentine's mood.

Dulcie would release her special Friendship Festival silly sweets... And everyone would be:


Showering fellow pixies with hearts.

I wish Pixie Hollow was still open.. I'd really love to meet all my readers, but there never was enough time.. Maybe on another game.. There's always next time ;)

I'll leave you with an edit I made for the Festival.. Remember that you, all my readers, will always be my FFFs (Fairy Friends Forever) :)


The fairies in the picture are me, and my sister, Stella. ;)

Fly With You,

Hello, fellow Pixies!!

Hi, I'm Sapphire. Sapphire Rainymist, your average water talent. Nice to meet all of you! (Well, I don't really know if anyone reads this.)

I'm Minerva's second guest author, along with Jade.

So, now we all know that this blog is all about Pixie Hollow right? Well, I'm going to write about Pixie Hollow whenever I can! That's right. I love, not just like, Pixie Hollow!

Sad to say guys, something went wrong with my pics and they got deleted. So I'll just try my best to find something else to keep living those memories of PH.

I started PH in August 2010. I have three fairies, Sapphire Rainymist (That's me!), Holly Rosepetal and Autumn Cozyheart. I don't really remember much about my two other fairies, because I was always busy with Sapphire. ;)

By the way, this is what I look like.




Is my edit okay? I just started editing, so I'm not the expert.




Well, that's it! Bye for now! :)



Frozen

I just recently watched the movie Frozen and I have to say, it's absolutely amazing. Some people said that there was too much singing, but I don't know, personally, I loved all the music. Let it Go and For the First Time in Forever were some of my all-time favorites from Disney.

For those who haven't watched it yet, I'll try not to spoil too much.

Frozen takes place in Arendelle, a beautiful kingdom in endless summer. On the day of the new queen's coronation, the queen, Elsa, accidentally sets an eternal winter. Scared that she had revealed her secret powers, she flees to a snowy mountain, where she is free to unleash her powers. Her sister Anna, princess of Arendelle, goes after her in pursuit of bringing back summer.

This is the first movie with not one, but two Disney princesses. Elsa, the Snow Queen, and Anna, the uh.. Normal princess.

One thing I really like about Frozen is how incredible the art is! I mean it, Arendelle looks fantastic. I would definitely vacation there sometime. Next up in the installment of Minerva's life story, a visit to Arendelle in the summer! It should happen! Hmm.. I'm totally serious - nah, that would be so jokes.

But seriously, gotta love the view! There was even a Rapunzel and Flynn sighting in Arendelle to attend Elsa's coronation. Have you noticed them yet? *slight spoilers for those who haven't seen the movie yet*

See? I've seen a lot of debates about this and it turns out that the late queen of Arendelle and the queen of Corona were sisters, which makes Rapunzel, Anna and Elsa cousins. That explains why Rapunzel and Flynn were at Elsa's coronation.. I remember reading a very good explanation once: when the late king and queen of Arendelle were traveling by boat, they were going to Rapunzel and Flynn's wedding, since Tangled Ever After occurred 3 years prior to Frozen. And as you may recall, the king and queen died three years before Elsa's coronation. See? Magic. I think Disney may be saying something here.

I've heard people say that Anna and Rapunzel look similar.. But I don't see it as much. Maybe it's the face?
Personally, I don't really see the resemblance, but whatever...

They're cousins.

Disney is just awesome like that.

And Olaf, oh my gosh, I cannot even begin about Olaf. Normally the sidekicks take away from the scene for comic relief which isn't even funny.. But Olaf is just hilarious. He's just so naïve and cute. Best line? Has to be either, 'Oh look, I've been impelled,' or 'Some people are worth melting for.' One is so funny and the other is just so heartwarming. <3 <3


And his song, 'In Summer' is awesome. Seriously, he's a snowman who sings about summer. No heat experience indeed.

And this picture is so awesome. Olaf's swag :P

Even though Frozen is awesome, I'm blaming it for all the cold winter weather I've been having lately.

Frozen let the storm rage on...

And it did.

At least for me, anyway :P

Anyways, that's it for now, I'll leave you with my favorite song from Frozen, Let It Go, performed by Idina Menzel.


Fly With You,

Hello! :-)


Hey-Ho!

     My name is Jade, and I am Minerva’s new guest story writer! J  This post will just be introductory, I don’t have too much of an idea what to write… I’m sure I’ll figure it out. Since I can’t do pictures, I’ll just tell you about myself.

     I joined PH in January 2009, when the old PH was still here, and had created 3 fairies: Jade VanillaFlash, Lynn, and Vanessa.  I loved exploring the new PH magic, and was perfectly happy without a membership. I hadn’t actually become a member until the closing.

     I mainly used Jade VanillaFlash, as she was my first created and I had used her for 3 months before creating Lynn, and 4 days after, Vanessa. I had created a tinker fairy, but I deleted her, and I don’t even remember her name.  Well, that's all.

Sorry about the small picture, I’m new to this. This picture was taken on September 18, a day before the closing (I can't believe it took me that long...)


See ya ‘round the waterfall,

Jade

Indecive Thinking

Let me first say,
THANK YOU! 

Thank you to everyone who applied for a position. You gave me the hardest time to decide.
It only helps my indecisiveness more.

No sarcasm intended...

Since everyone applied for the storyteller position, I will choose 2 new authors for the storyteller position. If anyone declines, an email will be sent out to the alternate and the position will be given then.

Just to clarify, I will not post the names on here, yet. I do not want to cause hard feelings between anyone. I spent a long time thinking about who would be the best fit for the positions. To be honest, everyone was a good writer and if you weren't chosen, no worries, it doesn't mean you don't have the potential to be a good writer, it just means that other people were a better fit. Every single story line was different and fresh, I enjoyed them all.

Actually, I didn't tell anyone this, but I've actually been secretly taking note of specific things in the stories. I'm a bit of a stickler for proper grammar and spelling so I've actually taken some of those things into account :)

Sorry if this is a little late, I was just having a hard time deciding.

If you are notified of the position, please reply saying whether or not you'd like to accept. If you have a specific email that you would like to use when posting, tell me otherwise, I will use the one you applied with.

The authors will have the opportunity to be a moderator on the Chat Box, since I am very lazy and rarely check the box. (Oops, shouldn't have said that)

That's it for now.

Fly With You,

Minerva
