August 8th, 2015 - Today I adopted a newbie pookie! You could tell she hadn't been pookie-ing very long. She didn't use pookie slang - for example, she said stuff like "mom" and "yes" and "okay". This doesn't seem like it would be that much different, but it was actually really weird. I'm used to pookies being all like "Tank woo oh tank woo mumu!" instead of "thanks mom". She also wasn't wearing pookie clothes, which is weird because this months catalog has, like, all the pookie clothes ever created. And she was a member! She was wearing yellow though. She was one of the only pookies in the Pet Shop wearing yellow.

Anyway! The first day she watched Teddy Town while I worked, and then I made cookies for her, then she went to bed. For some reason she started crying in the morning, but when I asked her what was wrong she just said "hwi". I guess that's just what newbie's do.

Then she asked me "When is my birthday." I didn't really know what to say, so I just said "Today! Happy birthday!" Then she asked how old she was turning, and I said four, because that's like the only number you can say on Club Penguin (you have to say "for" though). Then I made her Elmo pancakes, and we went swimming. We went to the Cove, and like most pookies, she decided to start drowning (why do pookies do that? it's so dumb). Then she left the cove and went into the forest, then to the hidden lake, then to the mine, then to the swimming pool, then to the mine again, then to the swimming pool. And the entire time she kept saying "mom where are you" even though I was right behind her the entire time trying to follow her while also typing the words "I'm right here are you okay" because I was still trying to do CPR because she had been drowning. Finally I caught up to her and asked if she was okay and she said "why" and I said "you drowned". Instead of answering she just went to my igloo.

When we got back I asked her if she was hungry and she said yes. We went to the pizza parlor, and there were no tables, so I ordered take out. She was talking to me the whole time, then suddenly she was like "mom where are you." And left. I followed her, but I was so far behind that I lost her. And that was the end.

Well, not all newbie pookies are perfect angels. This one definetly wasn't the best...but I'm still going to keep going with my challenge. And you should too!
