My Twinn Back in Business?
My Twinn, the customized doll line that was recently sold off by eToys, seems to back in business. The My Twinn web site has a new look that has been dressed up for the holiday season, too. According to the Roanoke BBB, the company is now owned by TPC Acquisition, Inc. in Chatham, VA.
With the bankruptcy of eToys and the transition to TPC Acquisition, there have been many stories and accounts of My Twinn orders that have gone unfulfilled and dolls who were sent back for repair going missing. One such account has got a happy ending thanks to a Delaware bankruptcy judge who was able to track down a missing My Twinn doll that had been sent back to the hospital. According to DelawareOnline:
Very few creditors in a big-business bankruptcy case walk away as happy as a 9-year-old girl in DeSoto, Texas.
Thanks to the efforts of a bankruptcy judge in Delaware, Renee Hearne got her $150 doll back Wednesday after it disappeared as part of a roughly $106 million Internet toy-company bankruptcy. The blond-haired, blue-eyed doll, named Ginger, was waiting for Renee when the third-grader got home from school.
“I was so surprised. I missed her,” Renee said. “She looks the same thing as me.”
In Wilmington, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Brendan Linehan Shannon pursued the whereabouts of the 23-inch doll after Renee’s mother, Carol Hearne, wrote him a certified letter last week.
I hope this is a new start for the My Twinn company! I hope that all the other dolls sent to the My Twinn doll hospital will be returned to their owners sooner rather than later. Only time will tell whether the third time will be the charm for the My Twinn company.
Just in time for the holiday shopping season, My Twinn has a new rewards program, too. Get up to $50 in Free Goods! My Twinn The Just Like Me Doll: www.mytwinn.com/freegoods
This reminds me, anyone hear that AGP Chicago might have to close? The place where it is is having money issues.
I don’t care for My Twinns, but the outfits would look good on my KK’s……
Lena – I haven’t heard that but I am going the AGP Chicago in a few weeks so I’ll be sure to ask – and take plenty of pictures.
Apparently, the owners of Water Tower Place filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy a few days ago.
Post the pictures when you go pretty please?
Yikes, Water Tower Place is going bankrupt?! I hope AGPC doesn’t close!
Apparently the Natick AG Boutique and Bistro is among the only stores not failing at the Natick Collection. [For those of you who do not know New England well, I'm referring to the so-called Boston store. It is NOT in Boston, it's in Natick, about 45 minutes away.]
Yeah, I know, I have cousins in “Boston” (who really live in Natick)
no no!!!! AGPC can’t close!!!!! I haven’t even gotten to go since they moved!!!
That would be bad (*edited by mod to remove inappropriate wording *) if AGPc closed. However, I think AG would do everything they could to move it to a different location. But then again, there might not be another place big enough for what they need and that has all the right stuff (they have a cafe so they need a restaurant setup). It’s kind of surprising that AG is actually holding its own in the economy right now. I guess it’s because it’s been around for so long and is SOOOO popular. Practically everyone I know has a AG doll!!!
is there any chance AG will fail and close all its stores?
so do the twinn clothes fit on karito kids?
why are they so expensive?
My Twinns are custom dolls that look like you (if you have freckles, you send a picture and they paint the on just like yours)
They are both 21 inches, so I assume so.
No. Mattel earns too much off of AG to close all it’s stores. If Water Tower Plaza closes, AG will likely move to another place.
Ok, they are 23 inch, my bad.
I got a beautiful My Twinn doll off ebay for about 60 bucks, brand new, clothing and shoes. They are wayyyyy too expensive, there’s no way I’d ever order one new. But I really hoped it would stay in business so that when I’m older and have the money, I can get some dolls that look like my family members. I must say though, some of the My Twinn friend dolls are a bit, ahem, odd looking. I also have some My Twinn Cuddly sisters, they are so cute, perfect little sisters for AG dolls.
I have seen my Karito Kids dolls Zoe and Gia, and I have seen a My Twinn doll and I would say they would fit in each others clothes roughly.
Oh, they would fit. MT’s are 23 inch, and KK’s are 21 inch, so the clothes will be a bit long, but generally should fit.
what is everone’s faverite doll brand they like to buy. does anyone have a preference for ag, karito kids, my twins, etc? your faverite doll?
Depends on what you are asking. AG’s are cutest for their clothing and accessories, although some of the new ones aren’t as good as they used to be. KK’s are best face mold-wise, because out of 6 dolls, only 2 share a face mold. LOF’d are best for all the little details on clothes, plus they get points for using snaps instead of velcro.
i’d say ag or alof cuz there the only ones i have,hehe. but yep! so,do you think i should ask for kk’s piper or ag’s rebecca 4 my b.day? i’m not really sure bcuz i kind of want both.
Priscilla, that depends. We know what Piper looks like and if you have Julie she makes a good Tracy. We don’t know what Rebecca looks like, but if you are interested in her stories or clothes, I’d get her.
priscilla- id go w/ the 1 least like ur other 1s so she will b different.
whats LOF’s?
well,i do have julie,so it would be nice to have a tracy,but i think i like rebecca more because we’re basically exactly alike.
LOFs are a brand of dolls. there kinda like AGs.
it is sometimes called alof and sometimes lof,but it’s real name is actually life of faith.
hey hav u guys ever heard of a british child (ABC) Dolls?
Priscilla, I’ve seen them, and I like their clothes and books, but the dolls themselves don’t really interest me. Plus, Jane should not have bangs.
*shrug* well, ok, I don’t care if Jane doesn’t have bangs!! never even seen her anyway, so hopefully the earth won’t explode, or Kain won’t attack or something like that!!
YAY !!!!! i get to go to disney in may!!!!! (not trying to brag, just excited to see my friends!!) well, either in may or later so we can stay longer…
oooppsssss!!! I forgot “what the… (oh!! or “what the *BEEP*!!!!” hehe!!)
Bangs on a Elizabethan girl are not historically accurate.
Going to Disney? I might see you!
oh… ya !! well i didn’t know… *shrug*
OMGOSH that would be soo cool! we’re probably going to ll the parks, so ya!! mostly epcot or animal kingdom, b/c i REALLY like magic kingdom (especially haunted mansion when ppl are screaming – hilarious!!) but it’ always WAY to crowded only OK on school days. epcot is AWSOME b/c of all the countries, and test track, cause if you or a relative own a car dealership, then you get to go up to a lounge (u can see it from the window on the front of tt, or when ur going up the hill on the ride) and when ur ready, to the front of the line!! really cool, especially b/c of the free soda fountain, lol!!
i still don’t get why the heck the changed MGM to hollywood studios.. MGM sounded much better!! i love the great movie ride (hehe) except when i was little it always frieked me out!!
animal kingdom rocks though… my ballet teacher used to be in the tarzan thing, but idk if it’s still even on!! everest is the BEST disney ride!! (the ride in the big ball thing at epcot always scares me b/c they ALWAYS have to stop it!!) but it stinks if u ride in the front.. way too slow!!
ok, that was getting pretty long, idk why i even wrote it!!
i’ll b on l8r, g2 do school!! ttyl
My personal favorite is Rockin Rollercoaster. I love that ride.
No, they no longer do the Tarzan thing.
hi,today was the first day back from easter/spring break,and well,all the girls went to tanning beds or vacations,but not me.
but i feel bad 4 them bcuz from the tanning beds they’ll get skin cancer. they need to be more careful i think.
also lena & selena,i hav no clue what any of those rides are,i’m sorry.
don’t worry priscilla, i only remember b/c i lived there for 9 yrs!! (not trying 2 brag) it gets..um.. registered (lol) in ur brain after a while!!
BOUNA NOTTE!!!!!!! from selena,
, and all of sel’s wonderful characters!! (hehe!! i sound like i’m accepting an award or something!!)
The revised chapter one of Mezza Morta is now up.
WAIT!!!!!!!!!!! how can vico and rose be cousins??? they like eachother!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1) They are unwilling to admit that they like eachother.
2) They are not real cousins. Mob families treat each other LIKE family (ie, Rose calls Mr. Barzini “uncle”) even though they are not truly related. They are (or their parents at this time, Rose is a member, but Vico isin’t yet. Remeber, they are 10 and 11) both members of the Luciano “Family”, but they aren’t related by blood.
hi! ok! so i made my name the link to my youtube account! please leave a comment! i won’t be able to respond to your comment though until i get the password in a few days! please come see my channel! i don’t have any videos yet,but i’ll have one by may!
Also,on my channel it says age 38,well,that’s my mum’s age,not mine bcuz it was actually her channel but she did’nt use it so she gave it to me.
WHEW!!!! ok, that clears it up.. you scared me!!
oh ya who’s older rose or vico???
ok, so i worked a little on it today (didn’t feel like doing ellie’s story right now) but not much… so here are the first 3 pages of my vampire book (it’s rosalyn/lacy -idk which name yet -’s point of view) wait…
Rose’s 16, Vico’s 17, Pete’s 18, and Tsuki’s 16.
Oh, and Priscilla, I just commented.
(this is the prolouge/ intro or whatever u call it!!) Angel
I remember the day very clearly; almost the most vivid memory of that life…
I was 15 years old in Rome, Italy (idk), my father was an Italian sort of leader (plz help idk what to call him! i just put leader lol) , and I was to go buy some bread and wine for him and the others.
I had taken the money and left the castle (fix), then had walked through the marketto the square. I stepped into the light of the square just as the bell started to sing, signaling that it was 7 at night.
Well, I can help, but what year is this?
and it’s “mercato” in Italian, not “marketto”
It was getting dark, and I knew I should hurry, so I quickened my pace to cross the large plaza.
Not much farther now, I told myself, just through the ally, down the street and I would be at the winery.
I took a deep breath as I entered the dark shadows of the dark ally. It was like a deserted cellar ; with boxes, crates, and bins lining the walls. Up ahead I could see the dim light of the street, with people rushing to get home before it was dark.
oh gosh oops!! i was writing too quickly…. umm… wait it’s 1693 (random number, i know!! just subtracted 316 from 2009)
That last paragraph, you use “dark” too many times.
Her father could be a lord. Or, if he’s in the military, a general.
ok, carrying on…
I was only about 15 feet into the dark ally before I heard it : the quiet sound of breathing.
I held my breath and started to run ; but I was too late.
This being – or rather angel – stalked towards me out of the shadows as I stood in awe of his features. The last thing I saw was his heavenly appearence – chalk white skin , long (er) black hair and blood red eyes – before as quick as lighting he lunged at me and I felt a sharp pain at my neck.. then my life started draining away…
As long as vampire’s aren’t described 125 times in the book *coughedwardcough* it’s pretty good for an amateur (BTW, I consider myself an amateur, so that’s not in insult)
ya, i know… i’m about to eat lunch and.. remodel (idk!) that “chapter” I wasn’t supposed to be doing that (what!! math isn’t interesting!!) and was rushing..so…
hears what i have of the next “1st chapter”
The only thing I remember about that …”transformation” was that it was the worst time – days? weeks? hours? it seemed like years – of my life. It was pure torture. No one came into the ally except for a few poorly clothed orphans, who quicky ran away. Then – I don’t know how long later it was – all of a sudden when I thought the torture couldn’t get any worse, it did. I was engulfed in the pain, before everything went black.
(it goes on to where she remembers when she is first a vampire, then it comes back to modern day. I’ll write l8r, g2 eat!!)
i actually have a make fun of *coughedwardcough* version hehe!! i heard.. somewhere… miley *gag lol* said ” millions of girls aren’t in love with rob pattison, they’re in love with edward” which is so true, because they must have been young and hipnotysed (that’s about the worst spelling i’ve done! haha) by how many times HE’S *triple gag* described, PLUS rob pat is……… uggh, so horrible i can’t even describe!1
“aw shucks!!” i’m so proud! that (vampire) and ellie’s story are by far the best i’ve ever written… the other ones were from when i was 6-9 so ya…
btw, ellie is getting pretty far!!! haven’t finished her story, but i’ve filled up a notebook!!
(that’s a big accomplishment for me hehe!!) ok, NOW i’ve g2 eat!!
One thing I agree with Miley on. And reading Twilight, I liked Jacob better. And I didn’t really like Jacob. That shows my dislike of Edward.
Get an LJ and post them there. It has lots more room to write, and it’s not hard to find older journals, instead of going through the comments here.
sorry that took so long, i had fetticini (or howev u spell it) chicken alfredo…
jacob was obviously wayyyy better than ..him… bella is so stupid going for the sparkly guy!! i mean, at least jake didn’t sparkle *shrug* …
i will(!!!) get an lj acccount.. sometime.. prob on thursday (see?? i even set a -possible – date!!) i’ll make one… idk what to call it though!! (like urs is “mezza morta”)
hey that (LJ) reminded me we went to the LJ presidential library and Mrs. johnson wildflower place while we were in Austin!! it was raining so there was hardly any ppl there… very cool though!! especially the “library”..
omgosh also.. there was nothing good on so i watched “hannah moosetana” (my bros call it that.. or they say it the way “barney binkman” says it) and lily and oliver were like.. bf and gf!!! ewwwwwwwwww!!! one of the most disgusting things i’ve EVER seen!!! and indiana jonie??? i wish rosalyn/lacy and demetri would appear and go to hollywood to have… nevermind!! (u get it hopefully!
Opps, sorry. Didn’t mean that to work, please delete that one above Char.
Well, it will start being just your email address like whysparkle @ yahoo.com would be “whysparkle” (not my real email)
Yeah, Indiana Jonie? Sounds like a bad cheep knockoff of Indiana Jones (which I do like BTW)
ya, it was a BAD nockoff of indiana jones (which, btw, i like too!!which movie is ur fav?? the cyrstal skull one was kinda..WEIRD) so hm was dressed like IJ, with a WHIP, and wow… and was like “indiana jonie and the curse of the golden cobra” GAG. period.
my fav IJ movie was prob the second one…. b/c of shorty!! or the 3rd..or 1st.. or 4th… (I’m horrible at making decisions) i admire … dang it!! that guy (ford??) who plays IJ, for doing allmost all of his stunts, plus my gparents know him (not trying to brag!!)
g2g do school b back l8r!!
Harrison Ford is the actor, he does have stunt doubles, but he does most of the stunts himself.
My fave is probably Last Crusade (the third) because of his dad. I love that guy!
I know, I’m sad to say I saw that episode. I was afraid. Very afraid.
Yeah, I should get back to my schoolwork too.
no offense but the quote “girls are in luv with edward not robert.” is not true,bcuz my friend has never even read twilight,knows NOTHING about it,and luvs rob so much she would probaly mrry him if she could. lol
thanks 4 the comment lena! btw- how is ur name pronounced? like leana or like lana?
It’s Ley-nah, like how you say “Helena”
Priscilla, while their are expections (like your friend), most girls are in love with Edward, not Mr. Pattinson, because he is described in Twilight alone 125 times. (Yes, I got bored an counted)
OMG, I love Indiana Jones! My fav is the 2nd one! And then the 3rd and the 4th and 1st are tied for last. I have the 1-3 movies plus a bonus material DVD. I liked the 4th one, except all that alien bogus in there didn’t work for me. I thought it was so cool he had a son!!! Harrison Ford is an awesome actor, he’s kind of grumpy in real life….or so I’ve heard……. Um, Twilight was not as good as I expected it to be. Rob Pat in real life is, IMHO, u-g-l-y, no offense to anyone who likes him. Jacob (Taylor) is awesome in the movie though, he’s much better looking than Rob (in real life, not with his long hair in the movie). I used to like Miley a lot, I’ve kind of lost respect for her though
. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHY WE CAN’T COMMENT ON THE OTHER POSTS?????? please someone tell me why, did we say something wrong? Did we get off topic too much? Ok, well if we stop being able to comment altogether, make an account on the forum cause I still want to talk to you all!!!
Sarah, I’ve been wodering about that too. It just stoped working a few hours ago.
*shrug* well i just thought there were enough comments (i only checked the rebecca one) .
plz pray for my toe to heal : yesterday at (curse ye!) chick-fil-a , i opened the door on my toe and half the nail came off (my left big toe) .. i only cried alittle (what??it stung!) but it turned out alot more serious than i thought!! we had to go to the foot doctor (i like saying that more that pediatrist or whatev!) … ok wait let me back up, so b4 this my dad said they didn’t do shots there… so i go in, and the doc says something weird (in doc language i suppose?) so the nurse goes out and i see her getting a BIG needle!!!!!! at first i was like.. ok.. someone must have serious foot problems! but then she brought it in MY room!!!!!! so anywho, they put this FREEZING stuff on to make it numb (it’s so cold it HURT) then put 2 SHOTS in my toe (btw, each took 3 MIN b/c if he put it in quickly -this stuff burns- it would..well…burn REALLY bad!!) then had to poke around to look at it (and HURT, even though it was numb) then cut it off… oh!! and then put a “mini cast” (or so the doc called it)(lime green btw! i got to pick it out! hehe) on…….
so there’s my detailed description of the FOOT DOCTOR experience….. i still haven’t stopped shaking…
oh plus they made me lie down so i couldn’t see them putting the shot in!! torture… (i’d rather see it like all the other shots i’ve ever gotten)
oh i hate shots too! they hurt so bad especially the way my doctor does it,he’s kind of grumpy and really rough and he like jams it in my skin and it hurts sooo bad. and i hope your toe heals up really soon! if it makes you feel any better,i hurt my finger really bad becuause my little sister kept bending it and now i can’t write thrat good and it hurts so much.
but on the bright side,my mom said tomorrow we might be able to go to barnes & noble and if we go she’ll buy me an ag book! awesome!
and my old doctor was so much nicer than my old one,but she retired. she is way nicer than this new doctor. what book do u guys think i should get 2morrow at B & N? it could be ag or non ag,but don’t suggest anything really short(like nothing under 60 pages.) or really long(nothing over 300 pages.) and nothing really scary,because i get so scared from that. so just basically any AG Book or any book like ag.
hmmm… kit saves the day is one of my favorite AG books (LUCKY!!) , but if you’ve already read that… do you like nancy drew?? the hardy boys??
oh wait real quick this is funny, so at the library i got 50-somethin’ books, (what? i like to read!) including happy new yr julie, and some nancy drew (only 1 OLD nd, otherwise newer ones) and i get home and start reading the julie book , and for Christmas, it says she got (nancy drew) “the mystery of the missing civilization” (or something along those lines) and i was like, “hey , that sounds familiar!!” so i look down at ALL my books, and the 1 old nd book i got was THAT EXCACT SAME ONE IN JULIE’S BOOK!! isn’t that ironic??
*shiver* i hate doctors… my doc has this…large (no offense to anybody!).. nurse and when they do the finger prick,,,, ok, so the first time i went we just moved here and i’d never had this done, and the nurse wasn’t even looking (she’s the front counter lady too, so had to hurry, and was yelling at someone) and JABBED it into my finger!!!! it was HORRIBLE.PERIOD. so when the doc came in the next time i was there… well thankfully *hallelujah chorus* it was nowhere near as bad, but it was kinda funny b/c my older bro (nick) didn’t have any blood coming out so the doc was like squeezing for 5 min or something!!
and that same day he decided to give me NOT 1, NOT 2, but 3 SHOTS!!!!! it was so bad that the next day (the day we were leaving for my g-parents, thankfully i got to go) i could hardly get up/move!! and i had a really bad fever, but i perservered to go, and what do i get?? ear block on the 1 (*grins sheepishly* almost) flight!!
I’ve been in the hospital SOOOOOOO many times, NOT FUN! And whenever they tried to draw blood, nothing would come out, cause I have this weird vein thing where I don’t get enough water so the blood doesn’t go through, so it makes it hard for them to test blood which takes a long time! One time they had to prick my arm in about 6 different areas of my veins. Shots aren’t that bad for me, its the drawing the blood part I hate, I have this weird phobia of seeing them poking my veins, if my veins stick out or something when I wake up in the morning, I seriously feel like I’m gonna go crazy with disgust. Yea, I know I’m weird huh. Anyhoo, I hope you feel better Selena. BTW, you haven’t felt anything until you have to have an ivy in you thats put in the wrong place! grrr, they put one in me when I went to the hospital once and they were like “we’re going to leave this in until we need to give you some water” and for 2 days it was in and they never did anything, never put water through it or anything! And it was in the wrong place in my veins, so it HURT like crazy. Ok, enuff about talk of veins, blahhhhh, sorry to gross you guys out, lol
oh gosh, that’s long
i think i have “veinaphobia” (winkwink) like you!! bouna notte off to read hardy boys!!
My hospital story beats your hospital story, lol. I have MS, and on Valentines last year I ended up in the hospital, for two weeks. My insomnia gets worse in bright, loud places. I did not sleep for two weeks. And the worst part is, they treated me like a little child, promising I can go home tomorrow…… for a week! By the end of it I was so mad.
Not to mention that in that two weeks: 8 shots in the hands, 2 in my back. In case anyone is wondering, this is where my deep dislike of hospitals came from.
On a lighter note, WHOOO! My mom said she’ll get me Rebecca if I finish at least 3 of my classes (I started in November-January!)
awww!! lucky!!!!!!
eeeewwww!!! horrible!!!!!
haha b on l8r g2g school!
wow, lena you have MS? But its not as bad that you have to be in a wheelchair or anything right? I got a tube in me once for a month and a half because I was, um, *cough cough*, kind of not eating because it was hard for me to eat, buuuuut its not like I’m anerexic (^^)><(^^<) <<<< they’re hugging, lol
wuh wuh wait!
(>^^)> <(^^<) now they’re hugging
No, they caught it very early, and I’m on a VERY strict organic diet (yeah, my doctor’s using me as a guinea pig to see if eating organic food stops the spread of MS. So far, it’s working!)
I just dressed Kaya in a spring outfit!
I got my ears pierced today, YAY!!! And we went to see a movie called 17 again. yeah, so that was raaaaaaaaaandom. guinea pig, (aka: Lena) I’m glad they caught it before it became serious! Maybe now that the docs know an organic diet works, they can help others. So what kind of food do you have to eat? I was once on a gluten free diet to see if I was allergic, I’ve also been on a milk free diet and nut free diet to see what was giving me stomach aches, turned out it was that I was sensitive to acidy foods, so I have to take this pill every morning so I don’t get tons of acid in my stomach, and to help acid reflex, I have it really badly, which I HATE! soooo byeee everyone….
good night! i’ll be on in a few days because i’ll be busy 4 a wilebut i’ll be back on sunday or monday! lena,i’m glad they caught it before it got bad. sarah,LUCKY!!! i’m not allowed to have my ears pierced!(until i’m an adult)
lol. i got my ears pierced when i was 6. i got my uper cartlidge pierced this past summer.
I got mine done when I was 3. Cpet my cousin scared me that they freeze your ear, and I cried when they pierced them. Them my aunt yelled at my cousin for lying to me.
I eat normal food (like pizza, mac and cheese, fettuccine Alfredo) it just has to be organic. And once in a while, I’m allowed to eat non-organic foods (like when I’m at work).
omgosh r u trying to temp me??!! idt my mom would be very happy if i started cooking while she was gone!!! how could u??
(JK!!)
wow. i would have been frieking out if someone told me that!!! i don’t remember when i got mine pierced.. i think i was 5… or maybe right b4 i was 5… idk!! i’ll have to pull out the old home videos!! (lol) i got them at claire’s (my name hehe!!) the day i learned to ride a bike. *shrug* not the dificult, just gotta keep ur ballance!! than it stunk cause i just went in and they gave me a teddy bear (which i dropped..ew.) used cotton balls w/ liquidy stuff put “guns” (what?? i was 4/5!!! they would let me look.) at my ear then just uh,,, “shot” them!! it wasn’t too bad. i didn’t cry.. or scream! (yay me!) and then they gave you earings for the month u were born in i got purple. i wanted blue!!
I got the month I was born too (sapphire). It didn’t hurt when they did it, I was just annoyed at my cousin for making me cry.
Cooking is fun! I have the american girl cookbooks (all 8 of them) and I always make the stuff in them, since it’s pretty simple.
Selena, I got my ears pierced at Claire’s too!!!! I had a giftcard, so I used part of it!! I got the October birth stone, but my real birthstone is Sapphire (Like you Lena!!!) I didn’t think they were that expensive but it cost like 36 dollars, but I guess that’s a pretty good price. I have to leave them in for 6 weeks, not taking them out at all. Then after six weeks, I can change the earrings and put any other earring in there, but I still have to keep them in for about 6 months. It would be cool to get my cartilague (<whatev) pierced but I doubt my mom would let me. There’s this girl in my class who’s only in 7th grade and she has a little stud in her nose. I think that’s a bit too young, but IDK
7th grade nose ring? WAY too young.
Sarah, all new piercings have to stay in for at least 6 weeks, because the earrings you got had medicine on them to help heal the wound.
i had this problem w/ my pierced ears where (it took like 2 hrs) when after the 6 wks we were gonna take them off, and they were like dried to my ear!!! it was HORRIBLE!!!
eew. why would someone want a stud in their NOSE???
Well, in some cultures it’s considered beautiful (and on some women it is pretty) but most people it looks horrible on.
My friend is Indian, her mom and grandma have them, they’re actually beautiful on them, it looks so cultural with the Indian garments they wear. She says its an Indian tradition, and she’ll get one when she’s old enough. Ew, nose RINGS are disgusting (well, funny looking) ! The studs are actually pretty on SOME people, but its super gross when you think about how they put the backing on it; you have to stick it up your nose to put it on! But like I said, pretty on the outside! My friend wants to get her lip or was it bellybutton pierced? Guys, here’s a lesson on why you SHOULDNT get your bellybutton pierced! My half sister got it pierced and even though she cleaned it, it got really infected and it was so infected and painful when she came to our house to go swimming, she couldn’t go in the pool! I think tongue and lip piercings are not so very flattering, I mean what if when your older and you want to kiss your boyfriend or husband? You could probably take them out, but IDK if the hole would still be there. (no offense AT ALL to people who have them) AH! Selena I hope my ear isn’t all dried when I take it out
.
I am NOT commenting on kissing someone with a lip piercing.
But yeah, Indians are who I meant. My friend Mithili is Indian, and she has a nose piercing, and I have to say, she looks really pretty with it. Especially when she wears traditional Indian clothes….. great. Now I want to buy stick on “piercings” and see how Sonali would look…..
I once tried piercing my doll Rose’s nose.
It looked HORRIBLE. So, I took it out. End of my nose-piercing experience.
I will never pierce my nose. It looks good on some people, but I personally just don’t want it. I have my ears pierced, I got them when I was ten.
I might get a second piercing on my ears, but ears are the only place any piercings of mine will end up.
bouna notte!
Yeah, I might want a second piercing on my ear too. My friend just got one, haven’t seen it yet. It sounds pretty though
um…well….about the nose piercing…..i think it is actually really pretty!! i mean just a little stud on the side. like kelly clarkson’s!! but, some ppl go to other extremes w/ nose piercings…..hoops….that sort of thing. if im not mistaking…the rings for noses doesnt have a back…
I think piercing on any place besides your ears is inapropriate.
Bookworm, I totally and completely agree.
Cept nose. Those are generally culturally accepted.
Yes, the hoop nose ones are blah. The studs, like Lena said are very pretty and cultural, even for people who ARENT cultural. Cept on some people its not too pretty, just depends.
I’ve found that on darker skin, like that of Indians, nose STUDS look good. On light skin, they usually look bad.
Nose rings make me ask how far humanity has fallen.
wow. u took the words right i’ve my mouth!! eeewwww. *shudder* tongue rings are……….scary!!! and the lip ones!! hey in that guiness wold records, that had this guy (or was it a girl?) w the most piercings, and well.. W.O.W. it was very scary!! there was not a 1/4 of an inch on his entire body that didn’t have a piercing!!!!!!!
Selena, I saw that guy too. Scary.
I have a friend with a lip piercing. I always stare at it, and I can never take the poor guy seriously. He’s a nice person, but I can’t stop staring at *it*.
Cool sarah!! Im a October, even though you got sapphire.
I saw that to Selena. it freaked me out so I just closed the whole entire book. lol.
Hey guys, I’ve decided I won’t do dance anymore until August. I have issues with school/work/driving/fun time, and I want to wait until I have less to do before I start dancing again.
That said, I’m off to my last dance class til August!
I looked in my ripley’s believe it or not book, and there was a guy with a ton of piercings on him too! It was this guy who aimed to put 3,000 rings all over his body, but he went into shock after just 1,015, so he didn’t reach his goal. Geez, people do some weird things to get in this book…….
ya!! was it a guy??? that stretchyest (hehe!! stretchiest) guy was…freaky!!! *shudder* very freaky!!
hi! i got the chrissa stands strong book today! i can’t wait to read it. i was wondering,do you guys watch the show wipeout? it’s really cool.
hhmmm… well considering i’ve never heard of it, i’m guessing
i’ve never seen it!!! lol idk
lucky!! i have a ton of money (NOT trying to brag) but i can’t waste even $6 b/c i’m saving to go to stay at disney (w/ lena lol.. nah, i’m seeing my old bffs!) then the beach for like a week and a half, and if i’m lucky, Ft. lauderdale to go to wannado city (google it… VERY cool place!!) again!!!!!
BOUNA NOTTE!!! oh, also, i made an LJ account!! except i can’t access the stupid emails, so i can’t post yet, but atleast i have an account!! almost forgot it’s : selenanoel nothing else!!
MY NAME IS NOW THE LINK TO MY LJ PAGE!!!
awwww col LJ page Selena!!! Anybody know of a site I can use as my blog that I can only invite people by email? Also, anyone use Facebook? I’d want to use that, but I doubt my mom would let me use it even though I’m of age! So is it safe?
uuummmm.. i’ve heard of somewhere but i forgot!! LJ is pretty safe, but idk.. my mom got an account on facebook, and some weird ppl contacted her… w/ some non appropriate pics (she just told me) so i dont think fc is very safe… on LJ you can pick who can see ur page..
where is everyone??
Yo Selena!
I could think of names for your stories, but I’d need to see a few chapters first.
Also, Sarah, I too recomend LJ. You can block users you don’t like, and you choose your friends. .
mm-hm!! (like when you say ya, but you don’t talk…)
I think i’m going to edit Ellie’s story, so i’ll just be working on Rose’s (my rose’s
)
story (the vampire one) oh, also i got the gallery thing to work w/ som pics (only 3 though overall) so ya…
I kinda like Ellie’s Venice outfit. It’s nicley matched.
Go ahead, no one’s rushing you.
hehe!! thx lena
i uploaded some more random pics, ellie’s hair doesn’t look the best in her pj shot, she just got out of bed!
Hehe, I have her Pj’s (for my dolls, of course)
BTW, you look really pretty in that pic. And if you don’t mind my asking, what doll in Ellie?
huh?? what doll in ellie?? what do you mean?? sorry im confused!!
which pic?? the NYC one is very blurry, so I’m guessing it was the LBJ one !!
thx! it actually had very nice lighting, unlike the AGP NYC..
ya, i just threw the pjs together, and they looked like something she would wear…
also, i posting the intro thingy and am about to put the next part…
Sorry, what doll *is* Ellie?
Ruthie
ok, I added the next chpt!!! very long (well, atleast compared to the last one! gonna take a brake for a while!!
Ok….. huh….. yeah, Ruthie makes a good Ellie……. the reddish brown curls and the lovely gray eyes……..
Yeah, I already read it, and added a little bit of constructive criticism, but like the story so far overall.
Hey, Selena, where on ur live journal are the pictures?
oh wow i can’t believe i spelled that wrong! *smacks head* wow..
um… i’m not really sure how to get to the pics, lena, could u tell her???
selena,where are the pics of ur dolls? also,in ur lj pic u look exactly like me! it’s really weird! p.s. i luv ellie’s story u wrote,good job!
Guys, it’s not Ellie’s story, it’s Rose’s (different Rose. Not my mob girl)
You need to get to her profile to click on her user pics. Click “profile” over her pic, then “userpics” and it should show them.

BTW, I’ve decided not to do dance anymore. I amazed my friends at tae kwon do today by doing a one handed cartwheel, and I’ve decided to do cheerleading. NOT the cheessy type that’s all “yay, go team!” but the one that does real acrobatics and tumbling.
oops!! I’m sorry i confused u priscilla!! i’m like that.. alot!! it’s rosalyn (/ maybe Lacy) …
cool!! I used to do that in FL.. but then we moved…
i LOVE dance, but there’s no where around here thts good!! i’ve danced since I was 2 (in England to Orlando, – central Florida professional ballet or something!! – uggh i’m losing my mind!! haha
BOUNA NOTTE!
oh wow!! that is weird!! it was a random pic i took in my room *shrug* not the best (b/c of light) but oh well!!
i take dance too,but i’m switching to a new studio because my old one closed down. i take ballet & tap! btw,my name’s the link to ag now.
Cool Priscilla! ( not about the studio closing, that’s sad) I took ballet and tap too, and then jazz, but I quite a few days ago cause I didn’t have time, and this cheerleading is only one day a week.
I’m still totally and completely in love with dance costumes though….
what is my kks?
I used to love these dolls! they had a new magazine almost every month! Im a twin and I used to want one sooo bad! I hope they come back! I can finally get one with my own money (I was a kid back then lol)
