I watched a few retro cartoons although I was a 2000's kid. I had a Garfield and Friends DVD when I was a third or fourth grader (and got the whole collection a few years ago), watched Wakko's Wish, Animaniacs, and Pinky and the Brain when I was around that age or older, watched a few episodes of Popples, and now my current favorite retro cartoon is Britt Allcroft's Magic Adventures of Mumfie. This series was created by Britt Allcroft, the creator of Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends, based off the works of Katharine Tozer. I MAY have watched this show on Fox Family when I was a baby, as when I watched the episodes on Hulu, some scenes in the episodes seemed familiar). The show follows a young elephant named Mumfie who thinks adventures come in parcels, but he discovers this isn't true, and sets off to find an adventure. This cartoon is about an elephant who was all alone and had no friends, so he set out to find an adventure. He wound up meeting Scarecrow and Pinkey the Flying Pig and went to an island to help the Queen of Night (voiced by Britt Allcroft herself, surprisingly) bring happiness back to her island that was taken over by the Secretary of Night. This story was told in a movie called "Mumfie's Quest." After the movie, two seasons of the show were made. Each episode is 10 minutes long, but the show aired in America as a twenty minute show with two stories and a Mumfie Melodies segment, which were AMV-like music videos of two songs from Mumfie's Quest. These were usually played in between stories. My favorite character is Bristle because he is so hilarious. He is a fat midget who mostly likes RUUEELS (how he pronounces rules, he also pronounces the "r" sound weirdly) and sometimes, he likes keeping everything clean and tidy. I also liked the Secretary of Night from Mumfie's Quest because he's mysterious and wants magical powers, but I want to know more about him, because the film never told us about him. (According to a poem about the Mumfie books, in the Katharine Tozer book, Mumfie's Magic Box, his goal is to invade the minds of dreamers, which is different from Mumfie's Quest.) Also, Pinkey the flying pig is ADORABLE! According to an article about a house Britt Allcroft renovated, she is currently working on new episodes of Mumfie! You can watch Mumfie on Netflix (only the first 26 episodes, the Christmas special and the movie), Hulu (has all the episodes, minus 4 missing ones and the episode version of Mumfie's Quest, the Christmas special and the movie), and Amazon Prime (same selection as Hulu).

I don't know if Shock Treatment would count. I think some Rocky Horror fans hated it, but it was a good movie. (It's the only Rocky Horror movie I have seen since Shock Treatment is rated PG.) It has a 40% on Rotten Tomatoes.

My last two were Heaven is for Real and Shock Treatment. Heaven is for Real: I thought this was a great movie and it made me believe that there really is a heaven by the end of it. However, the joke regarding the flight attendant believing that Barney was talking to her was funny but weird. Maybe she is one of the few who likes Barney because it makes her feel like a child and she must have had a rough or abusive childhood. Also, the "Can you sing 'We Will Rock You'?" part was funny. Shock Treatment: I watched this because I am very interested in seeing The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but it is rated R. I might see it for my 16th birthday (which is coming soon) or get the DVD of it due to how inappropriate the show might be. Then again, I laugh at sex jokes and I have heard music with explicit content. This movie had a great story about a couple, Brad and Janet Majors going on a TV game show and Janet becoming famous in exchange for letting her husband be watched over by doctors who want him to stop being mentally insane. I really liked Janet's outfits when she was a famous TV star. Also, this part was funny: Betty: He went like one That hath been stunned And is of sense forlorn. A sadder and a wiser man He rose the morrow morn. Random man (holding dead bird): Does this bird belong to you? Betty: AAAAAAAAAHHH-(cuts to an alarm clock going off)

I didn't choose my classes yet, but I know I will have two Regents classes next year-English and American History. If you don't live in New York, they are exams that test your knowledge of school subjects that you take in June. If you fail it in June, you must take it in August, and if you fail in August, you take it in January. I remember some things from my middle school social studies class, so I think I might ace the American History class, but I always get high grades. In English, I saw that other classes read things like Of Mice and Men, MacBeth, and The Great Gatsby (I saw the film without reading the book in ninth grade because many older kids were seeing it. It was great until the last 10 or so minutes... . That's why I don't always watch or read what the other kids read. However, I got upset by some PG-13 movies with scary or sad elements when I was in ninth grade, and I started to get used to scary and sad elements in PG-13 movies when I saw The Butler in August.)For Math, I am going to take Financial Math (it prepares us for life and college classes) because the other math courses are difficult (and according to looking on Yahoo Answers, Trignometry is the most failed Regents, but the Regents people say Global History is the most failed because it consists of remembering TWO YEARS of information, but I also had to take the Regents Algebra class for two years, rather than 1 year like one of my friends did). In Science, I already took all the necessary Regents classes (Earth Science and Biology), and we have choices as to what science classes we can take. We can take Physics, but that class is VERY DIFFICULT! The other choices consist of Astronomy (in two parts), Human Anatomy and Physiology, Marine Science, Natural Disasters, and Forensics (in two parts). I am going to be taking both parts of Astronomy. As for my electives, I will be certainly doing the Early Childhood Education class at my school. (I love little kids! They are so cute! ) The second elective I will take is the Health class (We must take it to graduate. (When I took it in middle school, I got nauseous whenever they talked about the bad side effects of drugs or something like that because I think my body was telling me not to do drugs. Oh, and I also was pulled out of class during the SEX unit, although I handled the reproduction unit well in Biology.) We also get to take home a robotic baby in that class (I see students walking around with these when the Health classes do the unit with the robotic baby, and you can also do the robotic baby in the Parenting class). I might take this class that will help me prepare for college and find other jobs, as well as a computer skills class.

It was a bit hard when I was in ninth grade, but now, in tenth grade, it seems easier. I only hate the annoying boys in my classes...

Granted, but the PS3 can't play any games because you brought a CHEAP FAKE. I wish that Sunset Shimmer didn't appear in Rainbow Rocks...
