Clichéd Introduction

Well, somehow you've discovered our blog. Welcome. Basically, the way things work here are:

-We attempt to get followers by making promises that we never deliver. By the time readers figure that out, it'll be far too late...on a completely unrelated note, if you follow us, we'll send marshmallows to your home address, no strings attached
-We are going by the names Claire and Ellie on this blog. This is 0.5% to stop us from getting raped, and 99.5% because fake names are friggin' awesome
-In case our parents ever get hold of the URL to this blog, we won't swear :)

So, we are completely unoriginal and were unable to think of a what to write. However, a lot of first posts seem to be a sort of 'About Me' thing. So, here are 50 facts, 25 about Claire, 24 about Ellie and one about Cuthbert.

Facts about Claire:
1. Claire is aged between 7 and 112 (just a note, the age we put in on this thing isn't real. That's how hardcore rebellious we are)
2. She tends to swear a lot for seemingly no reason at all, particularly at cartoon characters
3. She even has a nickname. It's 'that loser that follows us around even though no one likes her'
4. But she's totally popular. In fact, the cool kids are so jealous of her, they don't even invite her to their parties
5. She has a goldfish murdering father. TRUE STORY: he cleaned out the tank, within an hour the13 fish were dead
6. But then again, she doesn't really care about her fish anyway
7. She gives her guinea pigs vitamin drops
8. She's so cool-her mum says so
9. She can touch type, but prefers not too
10. She's scared of any emo-looking boy, and tends to run screaming in the opposite direction
11. She's never actually seen Mummy kissing Santa Clause, not even under the mistletoe
12. She re-enacts musicals. In her pyjamas. When the rest of her family is asleep. And no one shall ever know...except our readers, but she doubts we'll ever get any, so...
13. She's running out of facts
14. That's probably because she's boring

20. He then walked quickly away
21. He clearly wasn't a Potter Head
22. That last fact wasn't really about her
23. She enjoys swearing loudly at seagulls
24. And throwing shoes at them
25. She doesn't like it when people end their stories with 'THE END'. They don't write 'THE BEGINNING' or 'THE MIDDLE' so why 'THE END'?

Facts about Ellie:
1. She has a t-shirt with a cape on the back. Yeah, she's awesome like that
2. She's saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa indie
3. That last fact was a joke

6. She doesn't find it necessary to give her guinea pig vitamin drops
7. Cat food is only for cats. She learned the hard way

11. And their capitals
12. She considers that ability to be of great importance
13. Never mind that she isn't America

22. Thank God, only 3 more facts to go (including this one), she's having a hard time thinking of any more
23. Team Charlie's moustache all the way
24. THE END (just to piss off Claire)

Fact about Cuthbert:
1. Cuthbert may just be a slightly evil-looking clay statue of a money, made by some random at our school, but he is now a valued and respected member of Ellie's family. He was part of a whole lot of unloved and unwanted clay sculptures made by Year 8's. While Claire chose to take home a statue of an emo*, Ellie chose Cuthbert the monkey/ape, and has never looked back.

On that slightly awkward note, it's time to wrap this up (sorry for the corny choice of words).
Where we are, it's summer holidays (SUCKER!!!Unless you are too...)and Ellie's dad has just made us each a strawberry smoothie!

*Yes, we know we said she is scared of emos, but if you are going to read our blog, you gotta get used to inconsistency***

**We looked up 'Goodbye' in the thesaurus, and this was our favourite***

***After expressing our annoyance at not being able to find the second asterisk, we made sure we remembered to type these ones at the bottom by drawing a giant asterisk on a sheet of paper. Just sharing
