Ice Cream Dreamland ♥ (:

My world is called Ice Cream Dreamland. It has one continent on a large body of water, called Whip Cream Ocean. The continent has five countries; Rainbow Raspberries, Sherbert Shake, Mocha Madness, Hint of Mint, and Lemon-Lime Love. The Sprinkle Desert is mostly stretched on Rainbow Raspberries, but also on Sherbert shake, which is on the east coast. Sherbert Shake has two mountain ranges, Mount Coney and Mount Popsicle; which is south of Mount Coney. On the borders of Sherbert Shake and Mocha Madness, which is on the south coast, lay Lake Milkshake. On the west coast, the White Choco River stretches through Mocha Madness, Hint of Mint, and Lemon-Lime Love. Southwest of the continent, there is Vanilla Volcano. The place was discovered by a group of Gummi Bears, who settled in Mocha Madness and spreaded to Rainbow Raspberries, Lemon-Lime Love, and Hint of Mint. On the other side, Sherbert Shake, a group of Gummi Worms settled there.

In 3270, the Sprinkle Storm displaced the Gummi Bears in Rainbow Raspberries, and killed the Gummi Worms in Sherbert Shake. Therefore, the ones that are lucky and lived all moved south and east to Mocha Madness to settle. Then in 3275, in the Northwest of Whip Cream Ocean, there are moving islands. These islands are called Dark Chocolate Disease Islands. They carry disease. When they got close to the shore of Lemon-Lime Love, the people, which are gummi bears, got killed and eaten up by the Ants. The Ants are vicious and are willing to eat everything on Ice Cream Dreamland. The Lemon-Lime Love survivors moved south to Hint of Mint.

The Gummi Bears of Hint of Mint lived near Vanilla Volcano. Whenever the volcano erupts, it did not cause natural disasters. It shoots out vanilla. The Gummi Bears thought and thought, and since the White Choco River ran through their land, vanilla lava spreaded into the river. While the Gummi Bears tried to save the river from polluting, one of the bears swallowed some. He thought he would die, but a new recipe is discovered. Since then people waited for the Vanilla Volcano to erupt and they would build graham cracker houses to live in near the White Choco River for the famous discovered drink. In 3480, the popular Sherbert Shake Gummi Worms found out that Whip Cream Ocean is the number one source they needed for living, since it was edible. The idea spreaded and all the gummies moved their houses near the coast.

Back in 3200, the gummi bears and worms worked together to built a road called Honey Highway, which runs all over the continent. Since the White Choco River starts from the North and ends in the South of the continent, the gummies built a bridge, called the Butter Bridge. The road and bridge was for built easier travel.

There are five regions in Ince Cream Dreamland, as well as countries. Because the first Gummi Bears settled in Mocha Madness, it has the biggest region; almost everything happens there. As the Gummi Bears moved North, Northwest, and West, they settled in Rainbow Raspberries, Lemon-Lime Love, and Hint of Mint. Therefore, Gummi Bears lived in those four countries. On the other hand, Sherbert Shake was founded by Gummi Worms. Their country is the second biggest, and they were the only one who lived near mountain ranges. All regions were on the search for the Hidden Chocolate Chip Caves, and all regions had a cave they haven't found out about yet. As for the climate, they were all the same, because Ice Cream Dreamland is tropical.

Family Tree Presentations - What I've Learned (:

What I've learned through all my classmates' presentations was that most of our grandparents or grandparents' parents tend to give birth a lot. Before, knowing the fact that my grandma had 10 children was amazing. I mean, I don't know if amazing is the right word to describe it. But then listening to other people's family tree presentations, I figured it's so normal to the people in the olden days. I don't think people will have big families in the future because they are too into they're work and modern business stuff that they don't really care as much as the people before did about extending the generations. I've also learned that mostly everyone in the class who's Vietnamese celebrate the same holidays. I mean they do the same thing. And so do I. Because I'm half Vietnamese. And I celebrate the way they do as well.

I've noticed that the people in my class aren't what they seem. Sure, they go to the same school as I do. And yes, they're studying in Vietnam. But beneath what they wear and how they look, there are stories that are so unpredictable to the naked eye. People like me, and Darlene. If other people around us didn't hear our accents, probably they consider us fully Vietnamese because of the hint of Asian in our faces and the fact that we're brunettes. Jennifer Fuhr is another example, who would've known she was from Norway. She looks Vietnamese! As do all the students in the whole school, except for the ones who are blond and actually look Foreign. We're all people, living in the same country; but our backgrounds describes who we really are (:

Atlanta, Georgia ♥ [:

*Describe a place or region that you have been to. Talk about at least 3 physical characteristics and 2 human/enviroment interaction.

Lenox Square in Atlanta, Georgia :)

I live in Atlanta, Georgia all my life, well, mostly all my life. It has four seasons like most states in America. In the Summer it gets so much hotter than Vietnam. It's full of roads and streets, and it's mostly for businesses and schools. The land there is very flat, but the grass and trees are very green. It gets a little chilly through Autumn, and that's when I rake the leaves and go for long walks, watching the leaves fall. When Winter comes, it's beyond freezing. It's even colder than Alaska, not that I've been to Alaska, but I'm guessing they're the same temperature. That's when I go outside and build snowmen with snow that are fifteen inches tall. I always have to lift my feet up to walk in that. I also go ice-skating in the rinks and I have to wear so many layers of clothes because when I skate, the wind blows into my face and it really numbs my nose, ears, fingers, and toes. On the other hand, when Spring comes, I get to take off most layers that were on me and wear thin clothing. It's very dewy and wet in Spring, and I used to go pick flowers all the time; little dandelions to make wishes and those yellow & red flowers with honey in them. I love the place because I can do so many things in so little land.
