Hello Again!

Hi! Sorry about our absence again, Olive and I are working on putting together a sensible post schedule so you guys will have content all month! We're back for real this time, guys.

And it's gonna be good.

See you soon!

I'M SUCH A LIAR UGH

I'm sorry guys. I promised I'd post those things, and I didn't.

But, hey, at least Olive's back! :D *throws pie at Olive*

She posted a few days ago, getting this blogging ball rolling. I'm going to be starting summer vacation very soon, so there will be a lot more time to blog.

This used to be the funnest thing for us, and then we kinda just fell out of it, and we apologize. I'm sure we've got a lot in store for you guys in the near future, which includes (but is not limited to) MOAR WRITING, MOAR PICTURES, MOAR GUEST POSTS!! :D

And such. To give you guys a sneak peek at what you'll be seeing, here's a poem I wrote and a picture I took! (Yes I still kinda take pictures.)

i hear the wind

rustling between the leaves of the tree

just outside my window

the sound is muffled;

i lie under the sanctuary of my blankets

locking in my warmth

i long to open the window

to listen to the song the leaves and branches make

to hear them whisper their secrets to me

though i have many covers

if i dare open that window 

the words i once thought were so beautiful

the words that are actually so cold

would seep through my body

removing my heat

chilling my bones(astheyalways do)

in the dead 

of winter

(this is the Lego Gandalf keychain my friend got me for my birthday :D)

I love you guys, seriously. Thank you for checking out our blog. It means a lot, really. Like I always say, feel free to comment or email us (random_bloggers43@yahoo.com) about anything! 

Ah, it's good to be back. :)

Update.

Hi guys. *waves* Olive here again. I know, it's been one post and you're already tired of me. Well deal. I'm here for the summer (and hopefully the rest of the year) to torture you all with images you don't care about and words you care even less about, which equals: you don't. Either way, I thought I'd stop by today, and give you all an update. I suppose only about me, for I only know so much about Cossy's busy school career, which is apparently a bit boring. Who knew!

ANY-ways, since the last time I posted, which was....*checks*  October seventh! And if I remember correctly, that is around an important day, but I can't remember what the day was...I think one of my siblings was born...eep.

Since October, a sibling was indeed born. A girl, if you must ask. We *cough(actually my parents did I had no role in it)cough* named her Pond. Not really, but for security reasons, we will call her POND. Why? I just finished Doctor Who, Season 7 PART ONE. It was ....in one word...amazinglybrilliant, of course, the last episode was a bit rough. They ended it poorly, me thinks. They did have a good way of saying goodbye, but a warning next time would have been nice.

Not saying I didn't know the Ponds were going to leave us all behind, I did in fact know, I just didn't expect something as *dramatic* as that. Anyways, don't let my upset-can't-believe-they-actually-left self ruin the season for you! Let me get back to updating -

Besides my sister joining us in this eventful world, I also published (self thank you) another poetry collection of sorts. Just came in the mail in fact. Turned out beautiful. I also printed out a butt load of my images, and stuffed them into my portfolio, completely and utterly out of order. I also read a collection of books, including My Sister Keeper, the Delirium sequel, and annoying little series that made me want to rip it in half. I won't give out any names, but I say, beware of Greek myths put into modern times, they are horrible and I do not agree with them. Though, I did like a couple of the characters...just not the main one. Sort of how it turned out with Twilight...but that's another story! And one I will not be telling!

I also started a brand new blog, due to the fact that my old one is attached to an email I can't get into. And I would like to forget it. So...I'll added a little link to the side bar when that's up an running for you all. Not that you lovely people care. And now here is a treat: A picture that is on my poetry collection cover.

Till tomorrow arrives
-Olive

Ollo~

Hello there, Olive here. Long time no...post? Anyways. Here are some pictures to make up for it!

These were all taken like two years ago, but they still look lovely, so here you are:

I Won't Give Up.

I refuse to give up on this blog. I know I've been terrible at posting. I can't tell you guys how sorry I am. This blog means a lot to me, and it's kind of hard to keep running all by myself, but Olive and I are working things out.

I don't know. Things are changing in my life. I haven't taken a picture since perhaps August of last year. I'm just letting go of the things I used to love doing and doing other things. I know there were some people that liked this blog. I can't imagine why, but you did. I've been a pretty crappy blog owner, and I swear on Freddie Mercury's mustache that I will turn things around. I've actually got two posts that I could be writing right now, but I'm procrastinating and I need to stop.

I'll put up the posts next week, I promise. I think you'll like them. And, as always, if you want to guest post, just send me an email! If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, like I said. Send me an email! You will always get a response, at the latest being a day or so.

I'm sorry for not doing a very good job with this, guys. I'll do my best to turn it around.

See you soon!

Oh, Goodness!

I'm so sorry guys! It's been so long since we've posted! I'm so sorry. I've been a bit busy, and if you follow us on Twitter, you would have seen (probably) that Olive isn't with us anymore. She's gone through a few things, and now she can't blog anymore. I'm still working with her on a way for her to still blog, but it's taking a while.

But never fear, for Costello is still here! I'm going to tide you guys over with a short story I wrote awhile back. Enjoy! Or not. You know. Whatever.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was a lonely, quiet, grey day when he came. I wasn’t expecting it at all. I had woken up in my normal way, gotten dressed and fed the turtle the same way as all the other days before. I guess what was special about today was that it was Christmas here in London.

I was alone in my flat this year. All of my family had gone to Prague, leaving me here because I couldn’t afford it. I had no significant other, and no friends or other family here. I had moved from Bath to London just after I finished high school and was about to start college.

I decided to go out for coffee. I don’t know what pushed me to do it, but something in the air told me that I would like a nice Christmas-y themed frothy drink from Starbucks.

As I was walking out of the coffee shop, I looked at the corner and saw a man in a brown suit leaning against a blue box. Our eyes caught, and I dropped my coffee. He winked and walked into the TARDIS, leaving it slightly open.

I had nothing to do today. So why not travel with a 900-year-old alien?

I ran towards the box, a huge smile on my face. I made it just in time to hear the TARDIS make its signature sounds.

It’s going to be a good day, I thought to myself.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Because who doesn't love a bit of Doctor Who, eh? I'm going to be working on a few posts the rest of this week, and most likely post them next week. Sorry for such a delay! Thanks for being patient!

Thanks, Guys.

So, no one entered our contest. Thanks.

Oh well. YOU GUYS MISSED OUT ON THE AWESOME PRIZES.

Sorry we haven't been blogging lately. Our Olive isn't going to be around as much, some stuff happened that I won't go into detail with, but I think I'll be running the show for a while here now.

We've been busy. School and such. Plus! NaNoWriMo! It's currently day fifteen, at the halfway point! I'm at 16.5k, which is rather far behind. See what missing one day of writing does to you? :(

So after November, I'm sure I'll be posting a lot more, and since I moved, and I found the batteries for my camera, I'll be taking more pictures of new landscape things!

But I've got to go, more writing to do.

P.S., Are you doing NaNo? Leave a comment on how you're doing, what your wordcount is, what you're writing about, etc.

Oh, and if you want to do a guest post about what NaNoWriMo means to you and what your best ways to get through it are, or something like that, email me at random_bloggers43(at)yahoo(dot)com!

Happy Writing!
