IMPORTANT UPDATE!!!

Emily, here. For the last time, officially. Yes, after this, the blog will belong to LENA!!! She has decided from the poll and her own desires. (Yep, can you guess what she 'desires'?)

So, I know I have only been posting for 32 days, and I have only done 2/3 of the posts, but I don't have enough voice. So, until I have more 'voice', I will go on the backburner and Lena is going into the oven (terrible metaphor, I know.).

This will sound really sad, but, farewell, my friends. Until we meet again.

Love,
Emily

PS from Lena: The blog will be undergoing some updates, so bear with me. Oh, and Emily isn't gone forever, she'll still be in my photostories and such. She just won't own this blog. :)

I know, I know...

Hello! 

I know, I know. I haven't been posting. But you know, it's not my fault! It's all Lena's fault! SHE MIGHT BE TAKING OVER MY BLOG! Yes, it's sad. I will miss my blog. I've got my fingers crossed, but from the way the poll --> is going, it looks like I'm losing.

On a happier note, how is everyone? I'm enjoying the warmth and sunlight this afternoon, eating some ice cream and reading a book. Here's a picture:



Is it sunny and warm where you are?

Like I said, I'm really sorry I haven't posted!

Love,
Emily

Which to choose? (A post by Lena)

Bonjour! C'est Lena!

Have you noticed the same thing that I have? That Emily is posting less and less and I am posting more and more? I know this blog has been up-and-running for only 29 days, but it seems like Emily doesn't have enough 'voice' to keep this blog interesting. I've wanted to make a blog for myself, but I think if I had this Professor Poppet and a blog for myself that Prof. Poppet wouldn't get any updates. Having two blogs would get awfully busy.

So, the real question: should I keep this blog as Professor Poppet? Should I turn it into a blog for myself? I will set up a poll on my sidebar, so please vote there. Any comments with suggestions would be incredibly helpful! Remember, having more than one blog isn't an option for me; I'm really sorry.

Thank you for listening to my little rant!

Love,
Lena

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US! (A post by Lena)

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO LENA AND THE DOLLS! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US!

Wish us a happy 1 year anniversary of belonging to Picasa Web albums! I'm so proud to be a part of this wonderful group of online friends; I don't think I could have asked for better. I wish I could thank you all one by one, but I have too many people to thank. This is going to sound really cheezy and cliché, but you have shaped my character, each and every one of you. I have changed in this last year, and it has been under the influence of so many well-rounded individuals. So, in conclusion.....

THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love from
Lena, Josefina, Sara, Felicity, Emily, Kirsten, and Samantha

I'm back! (A post by Lena)

Hello!!! It's me, Lena, and I'm BACK! 

I had an AMAZING time in Strasbourg, France! I took a TON of pics, but here are a few to give you a taste (because most of them are of people): 
Me, on a really fun playground thing

A bridge

















How cool is this. Giant foosball.

This was an obstacle course in the trees! It was beyond fun and terrifying!!!







This whole wall is made out of gingerbread!










I hope you liked the pictures! I sure enjoyed taking them!

Unfortunately, I'm SICK. I caught a sore throat from my friend that I was rooming with, and it's getting worse. I'm hoping to start filming today for "Shout it Out", but I'll have to see how I feel.

Cheerios,
Lena

I have fallen in love. (A post by Lena)

Kill me now. I've been sucked into Britt Nicole's awesomeness. I've just discovered an amazing song by her, "Like A Star". I love it so much, the beat, lyrics, message, EVERYTHING. 

PLUS THE BEST NEWS OF ALL IS THAT BRITT NICOLE IS COMING TO MY CITY THIS SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I MIGHT BE ABLE TO GO TO THE CONCERT WITH SOME CHURCH FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So that is that, and that is all.

With fallen love,
Lena 

Thank you, followers!

Good morning!

I just wanted to leave you all on a good note before Lena is away for a whole week.
I want to thank all my 8 followers personally: Christin, Hannah, Jeneca, Beachbabydoll, Carolyn, Leah, Phoebe, and Rachel! Thanks so much for following and commenting, it really means a lot to me. I'm so shocked that I have 8 followers, and I've been on Blogger for only two weeks. I feel so blessed with online friends!

So, thank you, followers, and see you next week!


Love, 
Emily

It's finished!

It's finished! I mean, the video that we were making!
This is the credits at the beginning of a movie. I hope you like it!


Love,
Emily

Sneak Peek

Hello, all! Here is a video sneak peek to what us dolls and Lena are working on today.
Don't you just love the name Avyn Flemming (Ay-vinn)? Ava would be the short name, and I would have a twin named Farah Flemming (Sara). SO, this would be called "Shout it Out", and I would post in on here every time Lena made a new episode! Right now we are working on the beginning credits, so the finished product should be done by next weekend!

Love,
Emily

Sorry to keep you.....

I'm so sorry to you all! I haven't posted since SUNDAY!!! :O I feel really bad.

But, to tell you the truth, Lena has been really stressed this week. She's going on an extended field trip to France next week and every project and assignment imaginable has been due this week. Also, we have been watching "The Music in Me" a 'TV' series by girloftheyearstudios .
They are so good, you have to watch them! There's also a movie, when you're done with both season 1 and 2. 

So, that's about it! Lena has a really good idea for a video series (similar to "The Music in Me"), so she is thinking about that. I'm excited!

I'm really sorry for the lack of photos, but more will come for sure when Lena gets back from France! 

Love,
Emily

Sunday

Today is Sunday! Good morning!

Lena got her hair cut last night, from almost-waist length to shoulder length. It looks so pretty! You can see pictures HERE .

So, what are you doing today? We are going to church, and then we are going to Skype with CC tonight! I'm so excited! CC still doesn't know about Lena's haircut, so she's going to be SO SHOCKED! 

Well, we have to leave for church now!

Love,
Emily

Sara's First Video Post (AKA Lena's epic fail at trying to make a video)

Good morning, folks! It's me, Sara!

Emily let me do a post to show you my first video, because I have always admired Mia's blog, No Guts, No Glory

But, if you want to see MY not-quite-as-awesome video, you have to go HERE because the video doesn't want to upload to this stinking blog! :(

So, I hope you enjoy it!


Fries,
Sara

Sorry about that.....

Hello everyone! It's me, Emily, and I'm back!

I'm really sorry about Sara. Don't worry, she's been screamed at already..... No need to do it yourself! Actually, you know what, go right ahead! JK ;)

So, nothing really special going on today. I have a bunch of work to catch up on now because I was home from school yesterday and today. So, to be honest, I'm not really supposed to be on here. 

Goodbye for now!

Love, 
Emily

PS from Lena:
Often, things that happen to Emily will have happened to me in real life (like the book club: I was truly the only one that showed up!), but I didn't really get food poisoning. So, no worries! 

 

Thursday, May 5, 2011

I will rule the dollie world, mwahahahaha!!!

Yo yo yo! SARA IN DA HOUSE!
 *ahem*

Anyways, I'm on Em's blog because she is SICK! And when I say sick, I mean as sick as a dog. She was puking ALL NIGHT. 
Sara Caroline Pedersen, that is TMI.
Whatevs Lena. Anyhoo, here's a picture, just in case you don't believe me:  
So, anyways. Believe me now? We think she got food poisoning. She was the only one that had meat when we went to a restaurant last night, so the meat might have been undercooked. So now she's so sick that she can't blog.

Right, down to business. So, what's Em been telling you anyway.......
*scrolls down and looks at all the other posts*
Jumpin' Jiminies, Emily! You are SO BORING! I will liven this blog up today, mwahahahaha.....

So, at school today I told everyone that Emily was drunk and stuff so they were all like "What?" and I was all like "Yeah!" and they were all like "No --
No you didn't! I'm in half your classes, and you didn't say anything of the sort!
Lissie get out of here! And I did, in a class you aren't in. Erm, math. 
Even if you did, no one would have believed you. Bye, everyone. 
ANYWAYS.......

Yeah, I did tell a fib. BUT, here's what really happened today. So, the middle school book club's first meeting was supposed to start today, and Emily wanted to join (though the rest of us didn't want to), but she couldn't because she's sick. So she asked me to go. I went and I was the only one that showed up! I mean, it was me, the librarian, and the counselor. So that was pretty embarrassing. But I helped choose a book that I thought Emily would like, and I brought it home for her. It's called Crazy Jack by Donna Jo Napoli . It's a knock-off of Jack and the Beanstalk that sounds better. I think I'm changing my mind and might want to join.......

Well, come back soon!

Fries,
Sara

A Loaded Post

Hello! Today Lena went on a field trip to the zoo (she's studying ecology in science)! Here are a few pictures:


 I hope you enjoyed those!


I suppose you are wondering what I look like by now, and I haven't showed any pictures yet, so here are a few: 


I hope you enjoyed those too, I certainly enjoyed posing for them!


Also, there are a couple of songs that have touched Lena in her spiritual life lately, so she wants me to share them with you. The first is "More Like Falling in Love" by Jason Gray . The second one is "My Help Comes from the Lord" by The Museum
These are very inspiring songs that have always made me think hard. I hope they give you something to think about as well!

So, I hope you enjoyed this 'loaded' post!

Love,
Emily

May is cold here.....

Good evening, all! 'Tis I, Emily!

Spring break was so warm, in the 60s and 70s for two whole weeks, and now it's in the 50s! It's crazy. This happened last year, too. In Lena's first photo story it was May, and we were all wearing autumn clothes! 

Speaking of Lena's first photo story, May 24th will be Lena's 1 year anniversary of being on Picasa. How exciting! Be on the lookout that day for something special............

How is the weather where you live? All of our friends in Alabama are terrified because of all the terrible storms and tornadoes last month. The US is having a rough time in regard to the weather this year. First the snow and ice storms this winter, and now tornadoes in the spring! Hey, 2012 is coming..... Just kidding! We don't believe in that at our house; we believe that God will end the world when he sees fit. Anyway, we've been having a mild start to the year, regarding the weather. The winter wasn't too cold, and now we are having a decent spring (except for the 50 degree weather in May!). I'm happy.

I have a question for all of you dollies: Do your guardians know you are alive and can do things on your own? I know some dolls' guardians don't, but I was just curious.

Thanks so much for reading, you know I really appreciate it! 

Love,
Emily

PS: Thanks so much for all your lovely comments! They just make my day; also thanks for following! I can't believe I have 7 followers already (well, I guess Lena doesn't count, so 6)! ~ERB

Hello again!

So, hello again!

Thanks so all for reading and following my blog within the first day, I really appreciate it! 

So, nothing really interesting happened today. This was my first day of school after spring break. Lena and her family went to Venice, Italy, but I didn't get to go because her mom said no. :( But here are a few pictures to give you an idea:




I'm thinking I'm too good of a blogger. All I could think about all day was that I wanted to go home and post on my blog! Have any other bloggers felt like that when they were new? 

Oh, I forgot to tell you the name of my school; I'm sure you are wondering now. It's called International Doll School of Europe (IDSE). All six of us go there, 5 days a week. 
Do you go to school? Are you homeschooled, private schooled (like me), public schooled, or any other type of school? Le me know, I'd love to hear from you!

Love,
Emily

Carolyn's Music Tag

 This is a post by Lena! Thanks Caro!

When I think about my best friend, this pops in my head: Santa Baby (Mara Heussaff) ??????

School is: Unbreakable (Fireflight) We are strong???

My love life is: You All Dat (Baha Men) Okay.....

My theme song is: Sound of Your Name (Above The Golden State) WOW.

My favorite song to jam out and dance to is: You Stay With Me (Ricky Martin) I don't even know this song!

My favorite color is: Set The World on Fire (Britt Nicole) Hmm.

My parents are: Tsaba Tsaba (Bochabela String Orchestra) This one has no words, so....?

I am described as: Take a Chance on Me (ABBA) OH YEAH!!!!

At my wedding they will play: You Are Everything (Matthew West) Aww! *wipes a tear* So romantic!

When I have the chance to have a speech I will say: I'm Letting Go (Francesca Battistelli) Sure, why not?

When I get sad I say: Wait and See (Brandon Heath) This is good!

To make myself happy I: Cinderella (Steven Curtis Chapman) I don't dance, sorry....

When I get angry I say: Thank you for the music (ABBA) And how does this make any sense???

At my funeral they will play: S.O.S. (ABBA) LOL. It will be too late to "save my soul" at my funeral. I'll be dead already! (In heaven, hopefully!)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So, I tag anyone that wants to do this tag (It's a lot of fun)! 
Emily is going to do a separate post for her daily post now.

Thanks all!
Lena

Hello, there!

Hello there! My name is Emilia Rose Bennett, but you can call me Emily. I'm an English 1940's girl stuck in the modern day, and I was shipped to America a few years ago. Now I'm living in Europe (I can't tell you where), and my life has gotten quite interesting.

I have 5 sisters, but they aren't really related, we just live together with our guardian, Lena Grace. My 'sister's' names are: 
  • Josefina Maria Montoya (Josefina)
  • Sara Caroline Pedersen (Sara)
  • Felicity Margaret Merriman (Felicity, Lissie, or Lis)
  • Kirsten Anne Larson (Kirsten or Kiri)
  • Samantha Victoria Parkington (Samantha or Sammy)
I'm right between Felicity and Kirsten, if anyone was wondering.

You might be wondering where the name for my blog came from. Well, Sara (the crazy one) watched "Pirates of the Caribbean" for the first time and the pirate says "'ello, Poppet", and Sara thought it sounded like me. So now my nick-name is Poppet. The "Professor" part comes from the part that I'm always reading. In almost all of Lena's photo stories, I'm reading on Sara's top bunk (honestly, it's a pig sty). 

Speaking of photo stories, visit Lena's Picasaweb Albums HERE.


Sorry about such a long post. Enjoy reading my new blog!


Love, 
Emily
