Time machine set to 80's

[impy]

So the world has like nine billion sites on Harry Potter, but a girl can't find a decent non-review/blog for the good old BSC? How fair is that? Anyway, I thought I would wave around proof that either Scholastic is full of crap/, or it's the end of the world as we know it. While bored out of my skull, I took their little quiz, yes? Yes. And of allllllllllllll the options [all four], I ended up with Kristy. If you don't remember your BSC-lore, lemme just say that Kristy is the complete opposite of me for the last, I dunno, twenty-some odd years. I would've required massive amounts of anti-anxiety pills to have been around her, let alone be her. Even with my lowered tolerance for stupid people, I could never be a Kristy. Not even whiny movie Kristy. Ever. Sports, outgoing personality, and anchovies? Not me.

And for those who must, absolutely must know, I was Mary Anne until she got that nasty haircut that they NEVER let her outgrow despite it always looking like crap on the covers. Alllllllllllwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyysssss. But I had a thing for the blondes of the club and annoyed my cousins one summer debating the merits of Stacey versus Dawn.

Kristy. When hell freezes.

I think it's rigged, you've got to be Kristy, or the quiz will explode! *giggles* I have bits of the theme in my head, but not stuck there. Yet. I still have my bigger dolls somewhere under the eaves in my room. I'm sure the smaller ones are around, too, but I think I moved them to the other side, and they weren't as loved as the big ones, cuz I found 'em ugly. The bigger ones caused me to go out on Dec. 26th to get either Stacey or Dawn, whichever one I didn't get for Christmas. It was the only time my father caved to my "but I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed it" whinge about a gift. :P Aw, no love for MA or Dawn? I could relate to MA being painfully shy [til the haircut instilled false confidence!] and quiet, as that was more me than I should probably ever admit. Claud was fun, too.

The Super Specials were fun, and I was a big fan of the mysteries until they pretty much all became lame. And they'd have the Super-Mysteries and I couldn't resist. :D I remember being scared by one of the ghost stories in one of the wintery supers, cuz I was lame like that.

Zits shall never touch the face of Stacey or Claud. I think numerous books tell us that about Claud and her junk food habit. Good, good times.

They're all Kristy! I went through and just picked answers that I knew would be anyone but Kristy several times and still got her! Way to go, Scholastic. At least that means we're not all Kristies though!

I think I liked Dawn. I've always gotten annoyed with supershy girls in books, even though sometimes I am. They just always come off as whiney to me, I guess.

And is it sad that sometimes I can't remember which parts of me going to camp actually happened and which parts came from BSC books?
