The Random Voyage of The Dawn Thread

Really? Chutes and Ladders? That's stupid... I'd probably play that backwards because going down slides is far more fun than going up ladders. It's known as Snakes and Ladders practically everywhere else... Snakes are much more awesome.

And Clue? Nooooo! It's Cluedo! It's only known as Clue in North America! Stop Americanizing board games, even though this was done many decades ago!

Super Bowl Sunday!

Commercials, good football, studying for a test, practicing my acting

Atleast half of my day will be good.

Apples to Apples has to be my favorite game, especially the Disney version.

The Greek audio track of "Ev'rybody Wants To Be A Cat" from The Aristocats translates this to 'Many Cats Are Musical'.
In Italy it turns into "Everyone wants to play some Jazz".

URGH! Seriously depressed....

I feared my sister's slumber party would get me pranked in the middle of the night. I am whip cream free!

The symbolism of Xion's name in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days was unfortunately lost in translation. In Japan, Shion is also the name of a plant that is commonly associated with memories.
On a related, but slightly different note, it is rather hard to explain to the math illiterate what her number is. For the record, no, it is not #14. She is number i which fits her status as a Replica.
Just for more Fridge Brilliance Xion is an anagram of No. i
Not entirely Lost In Translation, more "...oooooh, THAT is what it means!".

Hmm... Does Freddie speak Gratuitous English in the Spanish dub of iCarly?

Watching old Pocahontas show at AK. What replaced this?

Nothing. It's just empty... Really, the only thing in Camp Minnie-Mickey is Festival of the Lion King, and the character trails.


Separated By A Common Language version: In the second book, Ron tries to repair his broken wand using "Spellotape", a pun on "Sellotape". Sellotape is a brand of cellophane tape common in Britain to the point of becoming a Brand Name Takeover. In America, this type of tape is called Scotch Tape (another Brand Name Takeover), so the joke is lost on American readers.

36 cans of Monster... Well, the top one is empty.

 

[Monorail Fan:)]

I don't think they should have closed this in a park that needs more attractions. Don't you just hate budget cuts?

[Monorail Fan:)]

That's awesome. I would have never been able to do that....Because my parents would never buy thst much monster.

Science vocab= COMPLETE!

Now I need to read to page 69 of Fahrenheight 451 then do the Study Guide for English... I'll do that tonight before bed.

I think that's it?

I'm not allowed to drink energy drinks anymore... last time it worked a little too well.

 

[Monorail Fan:)]

Is that hinting at who you want to win Sara?

 

[Monorail Fan:)]

I have never had an energy drink before. My parents think it has bad effects to " a growing teen".

 

[::Snow_White::]

I love Fahrenheit 451.

And I think I may have had a sip of energy drink once.
Gross. I do not put that stuff in my body. So bad.

Listening to the 101 dalmations soundtrack. This is so good.
We had to read some short stories in literature one day and I put in my headphones and turned on this soundtrack and lol'd because the music matched like the exact time period of the story and all I could think of was Roger and Pongo.
