Alex, You're A Genius!

I mean you'd have to be for the idea you just came up with! Ladies, Alex is proposing we get a notebook and pass it around between the four of us. While each of us has the notebook, we can fill it with drawings and writing and anything we happen to collect while in possession of the notebook.

That's completely the best idea ever! Ever. Evvvverrrr.

I also have a fantastic follow-up idea. What if we used the pages in that notebook for a zine? And instead of doing White Rice, we'll just call the zine Brooklyn Prom Queen! It'll be just like publishing, only we can also add our superb writing skillz and harness our mad journalistic steez!

As per V's suggestion, Alex would totally start the notebook off in Queens (you live in Queens right? Er, you live in Jamaica, but that's in Queens?), and then it could move from East Coast to West Coast...so to Sarah in Tulsa, then me in the Valley, and end with V in Pomona, who could keep it for a bit then start it all over?

What do you guys think? My mind is literally moving faster than my fingers so I doubt I'll be able to get all my ideas down about this fantasticness.

Open forum!

YES! YES! YES, PLEASE!!!

OMG, I'll finally get to see your guys' handwriting, not to mention any trace of any of your existences besides this blog (and Facebook, in V's case).
There's so much we don't know about each other yet! Like come on, I had no idea Alex is from Hawaii, WTF?

I fully endorse this.
Best. Idea. Ever. Please. I will send you my address. WE CAN DECORATE THE COVER LIKE THE PANTS OMG COLLAGEZ

Erika said...

Brilliant! Everyone could take a page to do a collage!

The best ending would be for all of us to meet somewhere to talk about it. Ahhh....if only that could happen.

Still, we could really do this! It could be supremely fun!

Lolita Hazed said...

OMG, the meeting could SO be like Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants!! All I need is dough...

By the way, this blog was actually the greatest idea like ever.

Erika said...

Thanks! I was just thinking how awesome this whole thing is! If we ever did do a magazine or ANYTHING together, I would want to work with you bitches and only you bitches! I love you guys!

No homo.

I guess when V and Alex wake up (it's like almost 2:30am in NY) we can talk more about this together! Until then, late night internetting FTW!

Valentina said...

Dudes, I'm totally up. Rocking out to Fleet Foxes, but totally awake and YES YES YES. Want please, like right now!

MACK said...

LOL I love this idea. And you guys! I'm so getting the cutest notebook I can find TODAY. we need to exchange addy's ASAP so we get get the ball rollingggg. Oh and yes, I live in Jamaica, Queens but I also live in Virginia (DC suburb). And (Sarah) the Hawaii home thing too, haha It's complicated but trust--I'll explain everything in in due time. This is so brilliant..I'll have something to look forward, like 3 cross country Missbehave pen pals! yes!

Lolita Hazed said...

V, Alex, what are your guys' e-mail addresses? Mine is DoeHazed@aol.com

Erika said...

I'm sending my address out to everyone now! Alex, is your address the same as when you emailed me for the Chester French giveaway?

This is so awesome! And if anyone goes anywhere, you have to take pictures and put them in, too! I'm going to go buy that Polaroid camera from the thrift store now!

MACK said...

Well, thats my school addy. I'll be home for a month so ill email everyone both addresses. for the majority of the year im at school, though.

e, did you email us yet? i have a new email addy.

allymack08@gmail.com

V, what is your email addy?

OH--I bought a notebook today! I'm going to take pics and post them so we can decide if its the one we want to use. and pictures/postcards/trinkets/anything else is a must.

i'm realllly excited about this!

MACK said...

i think we should keep the rotation really frequent. it'll be like a traveling blog. we can write about anythinggg.

Valentina said...

I'm sunshinesupernova41@yahoo.com. And yes, I think the rotation should be pretty frequent to keep it interesting!

Yeah, I emailed everyone, but I sent yours to itz_jelli@yahoo.com, Alex. Is that the school one? Mine is emp62790@yahoo.com. Oh wait, I already have Alex's address.

But one question: how long do we each get to keep the notebook? Two weeks at a time? Three weeks at a time?

Valentina said...

I kind of like 2 weeks at a time. Is that too short though? If the time period is too long I feel like there will be a greater chance of kind of putting it off and than eventually forgetting about it.

Erika said...

I like 2 weeks too. I think you're right, but I know if I have it for too long, I'm going to lose it somehow. I have the worst luck with that. Plus having a short amount of time means motivation to do super fun shit so you don't fill the notebook with hella boringness!

MACK said...

2 weeks it is! uhm, can we trade SN's? And do like a massive group chat?

Lolita Hazed said...

In terms of IMing, I'm an AOL-er, is no one else? Alex, I'll resend you my address-- I sent it to itzjelli.
I have everyone's address but yours, I think. Everyone else got everyone else's?

MACK said...

I emailed everyone, but I haven't gotten anybody's addy except Erika's.
