Hallo everyone! I've been trying to beatbox and it sounds muffled. It seems all I can do is spit! XD does anyone have any tips or starters? --BKS

for start, try something like this: "better botter" i have not done anything like that before so i do not really know

Woah it sounds cool! I have tried to do boots and cuts and suck the sound between my teeth, but that's all. You almost doubled my list of "Noises I Make Beatboxing!" I also found I got considerably better after mastering the second chorus of Imagine Dragon's "Believer".

Ooh, nice! Love Believer! Did you know the lead singer of Imagine Dragons is Mormon?

Yeah! I was confused about that and then I was like well that shows you can BELIEVE and be whatever you want to be!

Wish I could help but I'm no good at beatboxing.

That's okay I'm not either, but I'm getting better! --BKS

Questions of the week: 1. Do you have any food allergies? 2. Who is your favorite author? 3. Would you rather be Harry potter or hermoine? 4. Have you ever been out of the U.S or been to? 5. Fro-yo or Icecream? My answers: 1. No, but I'm allergic to soap 2. Dana simpson! (author of phoebe and her unicorn books) 3. Hermione 4. Yes! I have been to Germany and France! 5. I might be crazy but.. #FROYOFORLIFE

1. No, but I used to be allergic to apples and I have always been allergic to grass and most lotions. 2. Probably Mark Twain. 3. Hermione. She's so much smarter than Harry! He's about as observant as a brick wall. 4. No, I have never left the country and I've only been to six states, but it's my dream to be a travel photographer. I love to learn about other cultures and traditions, and I'd love to be able to capture that through photography and share it with the world. 5. Definitely, ice cream! Love that cookies 'n' cream!

1: If I get too much MSG I get sick. What's in the soap that you are allergic to? 2: Richard Paul Evans, he wrote Michael Vey. And oh! I've read the Phoebe and her Unicorn books! 3: Hermione, she's the nerd of the bunch and believes in equal rights for house elves :) 4: No, I can't say that I have! The farthest place I have been is Texas. 5: Ice cream, but I would take frozen custard from Culver's any day! --BKS

what!?!?! your by a Culver's???? I live by three!!!!! that is so cool!!!!

Mmm, mmm! YES!!! I only had Culver's once, but I felt like I had died and gone to heaven! Too bad it's not in California!!!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE <3 Culver's! It's my favorite frozen custard place, along with Freddy's.

Its usually any soap with foam or if its not a bar of it

Ohhhh, that makes sense! When I was 3-9 I was allergic to bars of soap. They gave me a rash.

1) no🥐🍕🌮🥞 2) IDK, I love to read, but I could never choose!📖📖 3) hermione 4)yes, many, many times.🗺 5)ice cream🍦🍦

That's a lot of stuff to be allergic to is what I thought. Then I got to the taco. NO TACOS?!?!?!??! What is your favorite food instead?!??! --BKS

No, I don’t have any allergies😊 I just put in a bunch of food emojis... sorry for the confusion!

Oh good! Because that would be horrible to be allergic to that much good food!

Have any of you read the Extreme Records book yet? Is it good?

Hi all! I have been deciding if I should write a book in a few years or not, I have decided to! So I need your help on deciding which book I should write: My distant sister: Its about 2 sisters separated at birth and meet back at a camp, to find that they are related, and try to track down the dark secret their parents hid..Or should I write: A way home: Its about a girl who runs away from home (I havent found the reason why) She finds herself in a faraway land and meets a magical mermaid who helps her find her way home. Let me know what u think :)

I suggest the first one. Because in my opinion, stories about running away to a magical place are all way too familiar and similar.good work! Hope you won't give up writing ever!

You could write a sequel to the Parent Trap as the distant sisters, and also A way home, that title sounds like a Dogs way home and the story is pretty similar! Those are good ideas but I like distant sisters better than a way home.

A distant sister sounds like a copy of "The Parent Trap" You could write a sequal to that!

My distant sister sounds like the movie, parent trap... but that just means you have the same ideas as the professionals!

hmm i think My distant sister would be a good one i would read.

I think you should write A way home!

My distant sister its more believabe but if you want more fantasy than A way home.

1st one sounds the best. The 2nd one is much to generic in my opinion.

I think My Distant Sister sounds cool. Is it like a remake of The Parent Trap?

Yup! But its sort of like spooky because the other idea I'm gonna use is using them as strangers at first so there might be some fierce fighting..Dont worry! And yes, I am inspired by Parent trap

That's cool. I used to watch The Parent Trap ALL THE TIME when I was little.

OH!!!! That makes sense!

Those two stories both sound totally rocking awesome! It was hard to choose, but I like A Way Home better. I like it better because she is looking for a home that isn't "home". --BKS

I think you should write A way home! My distant sister almost sounds like parent trap.
