Autumn Sky

I do believe that my blog is now sexier than yours, especially if you don’t have a blog. This amazing blog was designed by the magnificent designer, Meli. This has to be the sexiest I’ve ever seen my blog look. To celebrate this great occasion I promise to comment anyone who comments me and then goes to comment Meli.

Okay, so I have this amazing blog design. What should I do with it? Are you guys really satisfied with the level and quality of the blog work I’m producing right now? I think I may change up the portfolio section. It seems a little useless since all of my work is basically on dA. What do you guys want to read? Usually I just write what I want to write or what I think deserves to be seen. However, I want to know what you guys want to see.

The Erulynsky Blogathon is a blog competition between Linda Belle of Autumn-Sky.org, Meli of Melilyn.com , and Shawna of Eruantale.net .

Rules

1. The competitors must recognize that they are competing by explaining the competition to their audience.
2. Posts informing the audience of the competition do not count towards your score.
3. Linda Belle is the official score keeper. However, seeing as Shawna and Meli can’t trust Linda Belle they will also keep score.
4. Only original written posts count towards your score. Quoting articles, posting videos, or posting music (or anything of this nature) will not count.
5. Each posts will equal 1 point. 1 bonus point will be awarded to posts deemed OMFG!LONG.
6. The deadline for the competition is August 31st, 2007 Midnight.

I don’t know if any of you noticed, but… I am not Meli. Yes, this is quite a shock to everyone (most specifically myself, whom prior to this post half-believed she was Meli for some time now). Meli has been kind enough to drop my name every once in a while, however, I believe it was just her own conceded method for getting people to view her subbies as well as herself (anyone knows Meli knows how incredibly power hungry and greedy. Oh wait… that’s me….).

Without further ado, my name is Linda Belle. We may have been introduced via autumn-sky or through autumn-sky’s subdomain, birds on wires. Now, the question is ‘how have you come upon owning autumn-sky?’ Well, my new friend, I was introduced to Meli years ago when I was first searching for a host. Meli and I became fast friends. We’ve had loads of adventures and we’re pretty damn amazing. Recently, Meli became a little tired of her domain and decided to buy a new one. [This is where I come in.] She didn’t know what to do with a-s.org until a light bulb struck! “Why not give it to LB!?” (Maybe it was because I’ve been mumbling under my breath that I’m going to steal it or maybe she just loves me that much.) Meli is now happily living over at Melilyn and Chartreusian.

I’ve been working on Autumn-Sky for a week or so (with the wonderful help of Meli). There are two or three things that need to be tweaked, however, I’m pretty pleased with it. I have a lot of content to put up and I’ll be working on that this week. If you have any ideas or suggestions I would just LOVE to hear them.

Oh, and happy birthday Harry Potter. :)

I bet you didn’t know that the right amount of nutmeg can make you high. 1.0 grams of nature’s little halogen will cause visual distortions and a mild euphoria. The spice is of a similar chemical make up as Ecstasy. But don’t start rummaging your spice rack just yet because an overdose of Grandma’s rice pudding (slight exaggeration) can cause you spiraling into Nutmeg Psychosis, which is “an acute psychiatric disorder marked by hallucinations, excitement, thought disorder, a sense of impending death and agitation”. Spices, plants, and herbs are an excellent alternative to over the counter medications or just a nice way to relieve stress ;). However, you should always be fully aware of what you’re consuming and its long term benefits or health risks.

I’m sure nearly everyone has tried an energy drink before. I’ve had my share: Redbulls, Rockstars, Full Throttles, Monsters, and even some Mexican energy drinks that I probably shouldn’t have chance. My particular favourite and weekly regular is a Monster. What I’m starting to notice is that I’m not the only one who drinks energy drinks, particularly Monster. My friend’s drink them, bloggers of read drink them, vloggers online are drinking them, everyone seems to be drinking these bad boys. Sometimes, I feel so irratated and tired that I just *need* to have a Monster to get me pumping. I’m literally not happy until that *pop* sound and the sweet, undetectable flavoured, but distinctly energized drink comes pouring down my throat. God, it makes me want one right now. It wasn’t until recently that I realized that drinking 3 a week may not be good for me… so I did a little test. I’ve been drinking three every other week to see how the side effects are. The weeks I drink Monsters I have: bad dreams, insomnia, migraines, heart palpitations, and hallucinations. The weeks I’m not drinking Monsters is incredibly different, though I can still feel the effects and I still want more. So why do I feel like this, and is it all together a bad thing?

The Monster energy drink claims to deliver twice the buzz of a regular energy drink with a three cans per day limit. It claims that it will “Unleash the beast”, whatever that means. The serving size is 8 fl. Oz, which is a normal Redbull can, however a Monster has two servings making it a whooping 16 oz energy force. The first twelve ingredients to make this kickass energizer are as follows:

Carbonated Water: Found in all sodas and many different drinks.

Sucrose: A common sweeter mainly found in junk food. Sucrose is a quick source of energy for the body, however it does have adverse health effects such as tooth decay and obesity.
