It's there! Look for Celtic/Scottish lore. I'll be happy to help!

Well, I once thought I was going to get kidnapped or die. Whichever sounds less dramatic.
For clarification, last Thanksgiving my sister, my cousin and I went to the park alone. (It was really close to my cousin's house, we weren't going very far.) When we got there, we saw some stranger sitting across the way by themself, with a hood pulled up over their head. When they saw us, they got up and started coming at us.
Naturally, we were kind of freaked out, and kept our distance. Eventually, they turned off into a field and disappeared.
Later they came back, and we decided it was best if the three of us headed back to the house. While we were walking down the sidewalk, a man with a dark sweatshirt and jeans started coming up to us. The three of us were still a little rattled from the other 'encounter' so we were panicking a little. This time felt really different, since both phones we had, had died.
So pulling her dead phone out, my cousin started to pretend to talk on the phone. When we got closer, we all caught a look at the man's face-
Turns out it was my dad.
He was coming to make sure we were alright, and tell us dessert and stuff was set up.
So yeah. That was fun.

(Something related to the post above.)
My cousin and I went to the park, of course, her parents where there too. Anyway, the two of us went walking in the woods area, and she said she thought she saw a pair of eyes in the trees. I kinda wanted to see if anything was there, but we were also freaking out, and by that time, her parents said ti was time to go anyway, so yeah.

My birthday's in exactly a month from now

I learned to read at the age of 1 but still can’t figure out grade 3 division

last thanksgiving i broke a lightbulb over pumpkin roll

Last thanksgiving I didn't throw up and that's a big accomplishment, considering how much I ate
then ran on my aunt's treadmill

i am delighted to hear that i’m whimsical

Sprites/spriggen are tricky. They like to play tricks, and pranks. They enjoy life and run around doing whatever they feel like.

yeah thats me

there is
so it was at my great grandma's house, and she has this one light that hangs really low and since i'm tall i bump into it a lot
i was also sitting directly under the light
it was at the part at the end where we were giving away food
they asked "who wants pumpkin roll?" and i really love pumpkin roll so i shot my hand up…
and hit the light and broke a lightbulb
and then later i almost did the same thing with mac and cheese

The fact that there're so many gaps in Irish mythology makes me unreasonably sad. Like, in the myths there were these all powerful, nature controlling, beasts/people/spirits that were constantly at war with the people, but there's almost no description of them. No one wrote down why they were at war, what they looked like, anything. My thirst for story intensifies when that stuff is just missing.

They probably assumed it would always be that way. That it would be taught in school and the mythical creatures would still walk among us.

It still is. Granted I don't know much, but stories that I have heard from some of my Irish buddies, have never been written down. For them, it's like their biggest secrets. Stories that have and will never be written down. It's a pride thing. There are some that I know, but I'm not at liberty to tell them. I value their family tradition, and I value their honor code. I'm not going to disrespect that. (Plus, I'm sure they know how to hide a body where it would never be found… 😂) For mythical creatures, I can give you this. They associate eye colors and hair colors and hair types with beings. For example, green eyes, and curly brown hair, are associated with wild forest nymphs. (Not the wisps, they find that an offensive mistake…) While short brown or black hair that's pin straight, and big brown eyes are associated with Selkies. If you want to know what kind of mythical being they'd associate you with just let me know and I can give it a shot. But no guarantees on what I can do 😂

What about curly brown hair and caramel brown eyes?

Sharpen the mop, knock them out with shoe nunchucks, cut up and throw away the bodies.

The song Right This Way from Bandstand is the anthem to my extended essay project and it’s motivating me more than anything has in freaking months.
I’m honestly so captivated with this project and I’m so happy with choosing this cause I’m reading the lyrics from Bandstand and writing down everything I can cite and it’s amazing
