LOL (Lots of Lions c:<)

Hallo, Jammers! ^.^
If you read the article posted on the DE, then you probably know that they're having a contest based on Pandas, Instruments, and Fall!
How these three are related, I have no clue. o.e
Then, of COURSE, the article had to veer off-topic and ask what we know about big cats.
This was me, reading the article:

Yay, art. ;-; *scrolls down*
Blablabla, impressive art, blablabla, big cats in motion...
Oh look, tons of people posted cat facts! c:<
*idea forms in head* OH I CAN MAKE A POST BASED ON THIS MWEHEHEHE

Hence, this post!
I decided to include a few interesting comments about big cats that I saw on the DE! ^o^
*throws confetti and blows noisemaker loudly* 
*crickets chirp*
Sorry, guess I was a bit too enthusiastic there XP
Anyways, here are the iiiinteresting facts:





Hope you found those interesting! c;
Now here are a few pictures of some amazing big cats to get your brain jogging!



Oooh, ferocious! *whimpers* *hides in corner*


Snow Leopards are my favorite big cats of all time, I have to say. <3


I LOVE the quality of this picture! And the eyes of this tiger are just stunning ;D

Now, here's the last big ca-


Ummm.... Flora... *sweats nervously* 
Who's going to tell her that she's in the canine family? *looks pained*

Ciao!

Ruby Ring & Spikes Released?

Hallo, Jammers! ^.^
It's 6:23 AM, and I'm eating orange slices. So why not make a before-school post? :3
Today's item is the shimmering, vibrant Ruby Ring!


Hmm, aside from being way overpriced (but all of the items at Epic Wonders are :p) and member, this is a neat item! c: The little sparkles floating around it look a lot like stars to me, for some reason. o.o


Now, here's a theory from a comment posted on the DE^
I'm not sure if I agree with this or not, as spikes are highly valued, and releasing them would probably throw a lot of Jammers into a rage. ;w;
However, as I see it, releasing spikes would also be a good idea for those Jammers who would like them as an accessory. ^-^ Well, we'll just have to wait and see!

Speaking of "rareness," I decided to go onto Aldan and check the right and left bridge to see the amount of people sitting on each one.


Okay, wow. So there are a LOT of people on the left bridge, which means there just HAS to be at least one person on th...


Seriously?! >.< SERIOUSLY, ALDAN???

Oh, and if anyone ever offers to "trust trade" you...


... DON'T accept. They will ask you to trade a rare for a small, store-bought item such as a necklace, then say they will decline. Unfortunately, they usually don't decline- and they run off, cackling, with the item.
Now you may be thinking," But I want to show this rare person how rare I am by trust trading them! :'c"
Well, if it's really that important to you, say goodbye to the item. .-.

Ciao!

Rare Beard & Autumnal Festivities

Enter the new code, spooky, for a prize of 500 gems!
Hallo, Jammers! ^.^
Today is a Monday, which means that I'll have to search 5-squillion years to find the new RIM. Yay me! *applauds sarcastically*
Wait a second, I found it! Woah, this must be a new record :o


The Rare Beard, for an actually reasonable price of 400 gems! :D I have to admit, beards have never been my favorite, but this is quite an okay color and all ^.^

The DE also posted this ADORABLE gif to advertise it:


D'aww c: <3

Now, can we just talk about how photogenic the Jamaa Township in Autumn is?



The leaf piles, the sepia-colored tint of everything, the orangeyness- yep, photogenic. :3
Ciao!

Banyan Tree & Mossy Rock

Hallo, Jammers! ^.^
Anyways, as promised, here's a normal post for today. c: *logs onto AJ*
Okay, so today's new item is (surprisingly enough) in Treeptop Gardens! It's the ENORMOUS, MASSIVE, GIGANTIC....


.... Banyan Tree! :D
Coloring- Fine.
Price- Okay.
Mem or Nonmem- Mem >.<
I think that Banyan Trees are supposed to be REALLY big 'irl', though. o.o
I just bought one to test it out:


Seems my theory is right! ^-^
This is what Banyan Trees look like in real life:


Oh, I recognize that type of tree! :o I saw lots of 'em while visiting the Florida Keys last summer! There were a bunch of lizards hiding in the bark, for some reason. o-e

Moving on; have you ever wondered what this chunk of mossy green-ness in the middle of the water is?


I think that it might be an underwater island rising up. So maybe it's a clue that there's going to be a new land! >:D
I went underwater to see if it was there (which it should be, as it reaches underwater).
Apparently it IS!


Only it looks kind of weird.... o.e Less mossy, more seaweed-ey.
What are your ideas on this fluke of nature? :3
Ciao!

Ice Skating c: (Edwing's Life #2)

Hallo, Jammers! ^.^
So this is a bit off-topic, but I decided to do a little storytime. It's nice to share my experiences with you guys. C:
Anyways, I went ice skating for my brother's birthday party. I was a bit nervous, as I hadn't skated in a bit over a year, but I didn't fall over even once! I was able to beat most of the boys, including those who took skating lessons. c:< 
(I take ballet, which someone makes it easier for me to balance on the ice. o.o)
We also had some DELICIOUS vanilla cake. It tasted AMAZING <3
Anyways, as I was teaching my younger cousin to skate, a blur of motion to my left caught my eye. A little girl was stumbling across the ice, her arms flailing about. She was about to pitch forward onto her face and hurt herself, but someone who looked a few years old than me slid forward and caught her! 
She stumbled slightly, but he held onto her arms so that she wouldn't fall over. It was a perfect catch, almost like a fairytale moment. c: I was very touched that the boy, who looked like a high school student, had saved this little girl that he didn't even know!
She smiled greatfully at him and thanked him, and he returned her to her parents with a warm expression. It made me feel melty and happy on the inside. X3
Now I found this important because he saved (CAUGHT, no less) someone that he didn't even know! That's something that not everyone would do.
So the next time that you see someone who could use some help, just do it. Help them.
You could affect someone's life more than you know.

Anyways, here are a few neat things to do when you ice skate:
1) Start skating and pick up the pace, then glide. If you're about to bump into someone, stop by turning your feet in. 
2) Hold one foot a few inches above the ground for three seconds, then alternate to the other foot. Keep doing it.
3. Hold your hands together behind your back and try to keep your balance as you skate. See how long you can hold it.
Now I'll leave you with a fabulous ice skating gif!
GAAAAH I NEED TO LEARN TO DO THIS ONE DAY! :O
Sorry that this post was unrelated, I'm a bit too tired to make a normal one. But don't worry, I should be making a normal one tomorrow. :3

Ciao!

Autumnal Update 2014 & Monkeys!

Hallo, Jammers! ^.^
Today's Thursday, which means that it HAS to be update day! Yesss!
I wonder if this update will have to do with Autumn and the Night of the Phantoms returning? I hope so! c:


Oooh, pet monkeys! Cute ^-^ I wonder what other pets AJHQ has in store?


The Pet Monkey is in the Diamond Shop for a whopping three diamonds! Yikes, I'd hoped that it wouldn't be a Diamond Shop animal. But apparently it is, as always. *sob* :'c


Spot On is tons of fun- it's a simple game with a simple concept. Basically, you identify an animal before time runs out. If you do it in time, then you get a rather generous portion of gems! ^o^


<.< Oooh, I need to watch that!
>.> YESSSSSSSSSS >:DDDD I LOVE THIS PARTY!


D'awww <33 I'm very glad that pandas are no longer "extinct." Rather harsh for a kids game, isn't it? Instead, why don't you just send 'em exploring, AJHQ? >.<

And today's very iiiinteresting-looking item is the Candle Hat, complete with dripping wax and all!


Eh, authentic enough. It would be cooler if the flame didn't look artificial, though. :3

What are YOUR opinions on this update? Yay? Nay?

Ciao!

Rare Seaweed Boa & Cocoa Routine

Hallo, Jammers! ^.^
Today is Monday, which means an RIM. And it just so happens that today's RIM is underwater, for once. ;D Welcome the fabulous *drumrolls* Rare Seaweed Boa!


Hmm, seems okay. The coloring's kind of dull, but it IS seaweed... it shouldn't be fluorescent colors or anything like that. :3
Let's see how Eternal likes it! ^-^


Well, that's going to be an experience that she won't forget. X3

Anyways, everyone seems to have a routine when they go to the Shiveer Shop. Look at mine, and I can show you what I mean.
1. Sit down on the blue pillow, facing the hot cocoa machine.
2. Make hot cocoa in a specific way (and don't forget to crank the lever for heat all the way up!), then sit down again, facing to the right.
3. JAG a buddy to join me.

Yep, that's mine routine! What's yours? c:

Ooh, I'd better go- I'm going to try to do a special hairstyle before school (a braid coiled around a bun) and I need some extra time to do it.
Ciao!

Egyptian Sphinx & Iice's Den

Hallo, Jammers! ^.^
I just got up, and I'm feeling kind of tired... 
*yawns loudly*
I'm also listening to Ave Maria, which isn't really helping me wake up. >.<
Anyways, today's new item is the funny-looking Egyptian Sphinx!


Coloring- meh, it shouldn't really have coloring. Price- Fine, I suppose. Maybe a little less would be better. :3 The only problem is that it's only for members! :c
And another question- shouldn't it be made out of sand, rather than stone? o.o Or at least, that's how I've always seen it drawn.
Seee?


It does look rather like sand, doesn't it? And besides that, it isn't a lion! D': Sad, because it was cuter as a lion.

Now, for a new den feature: here is the den of iice, which has an amazing winter wonderland theme! It even looks as if the inside is a skating rink! :o


*faints from Wintereyness*

Oh, and here's a strange glitch that occurred when I scrolled to the bottom of my buddy list! :3


It still says that I have 69/100 buddies, except I can't scroll up! :o

I'd better go- I have a boring assignment about my name to work on in English, and I want to get it over with.
Ciao!

My Favorite Foods & Beverages (Edwing's Life #1)

I've decided to start a new series of posts called Edwing's Life, in which I'll talk a little about myself or tell you something about me! ^.^
Anyways, I made this post when I was hungry, so enjoy drooling over the deliciousness. c:<









In case you didn't recognize any of those foods/beverages, they're peppermint hot cocoa, sticky rice, mangos, pineapple upside down cake, dark chocolate, Red Rose tea, farfalle pasta, fudge, and mint chocolate-chip ice cream.
Obviously, I don't go around eating fudge for breakfast... but that would be nice. X3
Oh and notice I don't have any meat- I'm not particularly fond of it but I can't be a vegetarian, as I'm allergic to a lot of vegetarian things (eg. humus, nuts, ect).
Ciao!
