Notes from today:
I had high hopes for my mineral specimen, when I went to see Arte Fact. Arte was very pleased to see it – he spent a long time looking at it with a magnifying glass. He chipped off a little piece and looked at it under a microscope – and that’s when he said “uh, oh.”
I was worried that he was going to tell me the stone was cursed or something (with Nafaria around, you never know). But no – he said that the stone was safe. It’s just not unique.
It’s called “Bluffium” and it’s something he discovered years ago. He said that he called it Bluffium because it LOOKS very valuable and shiny – but really, it’s quite common. Almost like fool’s gold.
So I didn’t find anything particularly special, unfortunately.
Arte poured me a cup of hot chocolate and gave me a couple of cookies. He took out his old notebooks and showed me his notes from when he was my age. Know what? They’re really similar to mine! He was super-interested in artifacts, of course, but he did to a fair bit of rock-finding as well. Arte said that of all the kids he knows, he thinks I have the best chance of finding something really special – he believes I’ll find my unique insect or rock!
So, even though I didn’t get GOOD news today, I’m feeling pretty good – it’s all a matter of time before I find my rock or insect!
Sorry Alex. *Your friend Orange Starburst,*
You remind me of my little brother, Alex (at least your fondness of rock collecting. My brother can’t use such big words :) ). The only difference is that you go out and search for them, and my brother buys them at thrift stores… haha… well, he does find some too. I help him sometimes. It’s kind of fun.
Nice try, Alex. Better luck next time!
No offense, but what is there to discover??? I mean, people dig deep in the ground to find already discovered gems and stuff. But maybe you will find something. Maybe. You never know. *~Ruchirock~*
That’s great Alex. and go find something else!
I bet alex will find a new webkinz like sparky and doug did when they found the unicorn
Well, Alex, at least you know now about this rock sample. I believe you will find a new insect or rock soon. Keep at it! All the best! MDIChickadee
I kinda suspected that. That’s too bad. But keep looking! I’m sure you’ll find something.
that’s great, Alex! it’s 2 bad u didn’t find a new rock or specimen, though. sorry. :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:( good luck! :D:D: D: D: D: D: D: D
It’s fine, Alex. If Arte’s notes are similar to yours….. then maybe one day, you’ll become an Arte! I mean like really scientific, smart, and et cetera. The good thing is that you tried- and that you feel good! I love that feeling! ~ SugarComet***
I sure you’ll find something Alex! Wish you the bast of luck! Your friend sarahandlacey! :lol: :mrgreen: ;-) :-) :roll:
I think cookie crumbs is right that one day Alex could be just like Arte, because Arte may not seem friendly, but he really is, he’s just shy, like Alex.
You had fun right? Thats what matters! You and Arte have alot in common. I know you will find something out there onesay Tiger! If you believe you succeed! ;) ~KK♥
dont worry alex. just dont give up. giving up never helps. and dont think other webkinz are better than you just because they have something special. You’ll eventually find your talent!!!!!!!
Don’t worry about it too much Alex. Another version of Fools’ Gold? (feeling embarrassed, ‘cuz I thought it was something special) ~Phoenix Wind~
u know what alex? i think that 1 day, u’ll be just like arte! just keep working hard. *the ultimate cookie lover, cookie crumbs*
