If the HPBs don’t kill me, the suspence will. *goes crazy*
Do HPBs hatch from eggs?
One more time around!
We’re almost done!
DON’T PANIC!
*panics*
faster, faster!!
Stop! No more posting people because the more we post the closer we get to a hot pink bunny invasion but then again I’d sort of like to see what happens so POST AWAY! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
The Curtain is near the top… BEWARE!
Hello.
I. Hate. Homework.
That is all.
I agree. All tho it’s not homework, but parnets keeping asking if you’ve done it, after saying so ten times.
I think teachers give kids way to much homework. They encourage us to do extra curricular activities and then pile the homework on so you dont have time to do anything else. And then they give us homework over the weekend so we cant see family or whatever….it stinks. Sorry to be so negative. Im tired.
I am extremely stiff, because I played football with my friends yesterday. It hurts to move, but it was worth it.
Homework is The Man’s way of making sure you never have any time to peruse the activity of your choice. I find the whole idea of homework ridiculous. Let’s see: I spend seven, repeat seven, hours at school doing about jack. I learn more from an hour surfing Wikipedia than I do most days of school. After these seven hours, I return home. Does The Man consider that I may want to escape the institutionalized feeling of school? No, The Man thinks I have too much time on my hands and therefore must bring more school home with me.
I say exactly the same thing as Dancergirl.
HOMEWORK SUCKS.
11- I’m not entirely sure who The Man is, but I strongly suspect he’s taking his orders via intercom from someone who’s locked in a padded cell, considering how insane the curriculum at my school is. For instance, they spend an entire unit on the causes leading up to the American Civil War, then squeeze the final two years of the war into about half a chapter. Also, we just found out that our teacher will be teaching us physics AFTER we’ve been given our STAR tests on it. They wouldn’t stand for that kind of shenanigans at Muse Academy, let me tell you.
There are two kinds of “The Man”. There is “The Man” as in “The Man is keeping me down!” and “The Man” as in “Steven Spielburg is The Man!”
Last lap.
*dies*
And then there’s the first part of my name.
The Man is a very confusing person.
If I had less homework what would I do…?
I would ride my bike a lot.
I would have more time for taekwondo, which means I could get certified to teach which means I would get a job that I like and pretty much get paid to go where I go anyway.
When I had that job I would do other stuff like join a flight school because I would have time to go since there is less homework.
When I was finished with that flight school I would have a higher paying and just as fun job as the taekwondo one.
So…less homework=higher paying and more satisfying career.
Exactly the opposite of what The Man wants us to think.
Ooh! An anti-homework rant. I need this. Homework is so *is at loss for words*!!
Oh, before I forget *dies from fear of what lies under the curtain*
it is a true thing that you say!!!! the Man is keeping us all from content and happiness.
* breaks down and sobs*
*is taken away to Happydale*
actually, we have like no homework at my school, but i am sympathetic to your plight. i put a sign outside of our classroom once that said welcome to happydale, but i think it fell down.
no, i am not really obsessed with happydale. happydale is the sanitarium from arsenic and old lace, if you didn’t know.
Okay, I’m madder than Hel (Norse pagan goddess! Not a swear!) about cults! My friend, who is positively the salt of the earth, is going through a terrible period in his life right now because his girlfriend (who he actually was in love with) broke up with him because of some freaking cult. Her “discipler” told her that since he wasnae in it, she could no longer be with him. And yes, she did so. Now, I might pause to question whether she thought particularly clearly before making this decision, but I rather think that it’s mostly the cult’s fault. They prey on people. And the cult in particular gets lists of the *wolf whistle* things their recruits have done and if they try to leave, they blackmail them! This just burns me up!
On a completely unrelated note, I’m trying to figure out what kind of sword I want to buy. Should I buy something light and maneuverable, like a rapier, or should I get something with some weight to it, like a basket-hilted claymore?
20-How strong are you? It also depends if you’ve used a sword before…… I’d go with something like a rapier.
Go with the rapier, but make sure it’s firm, not flopping around when you wave it.
Wait, why are you buying a sword?
20) I would advise you to tell someone about this cult. Since it is a full blown cult and all, and isn’t blackmailing a crime? I don’t know how you prove those things, but she needs to get out of that environment.
I’m translating a song and it is….v. confusing. grahhh
20 – *cough* complaintsandrantsthread *cough*
20-Umm…I don’t know. *anti-cult choklit?*
And I know nothing about swords. Nope.
JKLHSDFHASFJ FRUIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am stressed by homework and school.
I can’t wait for summer because of all the amazing things I’ll get to do.
Karin’s amazing summer:
Going to Peru for 8 days
Going to D.C, for a couple days
Training in taekwondo to become a teacher
Hopefully beginning flight school
I can’t waitttttttt!!!
In the gift shop at the Cleveland Zoo there is a monkey wearing a black mask and cape. I have decided that he is bat-monkey.
Nananananananana BAT MONKEY!
21- I can handle a claymore. I’ve cloven logs in twain with a splitting maul.
22- Fun.
23- It’s pretty big. Church of Christ.
24- To be honest, I only ever really go on this thread. It’s easier, and besides, it’s not just a rant. It’s informative. It tells you to think for yourself, and not trust in cults.
26- then get a claymore if you can handle one. or if you’d rather sneak around scaling walls with your sword get the rapier. Unless you can sneak with a Claymore.
Good luck with your friend!
25) Sounds fun! I can’t wait until summer either…flight school sounds really cool by the way.
26) I think I’m missing something. Do you mean a denomination of Christianity is telling her these things? well I suppose it doesn’t matter either way, if they do that and claim to be religious then that’s just all the worse.
So I just went to a Seder at my friend’s house. It was fun – lots of good food, wine, gossip, singing.. Unfortunately, it meant that I had to eat matzo and horseradish, but other than that it was good – for the non-ritual part there was brisket and kugel and tsimmis and salad and chocolate covered cherries and candied fruit slices and chocolate cake, and singing the various things was fun – I was able to do twelve in the “who knows one? I know one” song on one breath, which i think was my big accomplishment for the day..
26–Erm…is that considered a cult? Only in Texas, I guess…but I do agree that that is totally out of line. At some point she’ll just have to realize that getting out is more important than getting blackmailed.
Seder is fun, except that we don’t have a real Haggadah (spelling?) and we’re using one from like Albertsons or something, and it’s different than I remember the real ceremony is supposed to be…I tell you what, though, charoset makes it all worth it. Yum. And my mum made mandelbrot, too, which is v. good.
Heh it’s amazing I’m skinny still…with Jewish cooking on one side of my family and southern food on the other…you’d think the combination of latkes and fried chicken would do me in.
WAIT A SECOND.
This never used to be, when the picture was actually on top of the thread!
Also, How do you do the HTML with italics/bold/strike? Is it the arrow thing then inside stuff then text then arrow thing? I am confused!
did that work?
I hope it did!
Hey, I didn’t mean to make “did that work i hope it did” italics! It was an entirely different word!
I’m doing the reading OAT today, wish me luck! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
25- Yay Peru!
Boo cults!
I’m at a car dealership with my dad, and they happened to have a computer for the public to use. (And it’s free, too!)
YAY IM FINALLY BACK IN NEW JERSEY!!!
but only for 2 weeks
YIPPEE!!! today’s my birthday! i’m thirteen now! now i can legally watch PG-13 movies by myself!
Why do the third row of eggs have pointy bits on them?
26- Do you mean “Church of Christ” as in Christianity, or a type of Christianity? Although, if they do that kind of stuff, they can’t be living according to Biblical principles.
31- https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=1153
Oh c’mon!! post! fast! : twisted :
37- Apparently ’tis a cult of Christianity. I only know what my mate told me and what I read on Wikipedia.
I apologize for my rant, it’s just that cults enrage me.
Who has read the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett? A dear friend of mine gave me two for my birthday (Monstrous Regiment and Small Gods) and they were superb.
37 – WHAT???!!!
40- cults scare me.
Eggs have pointy bits?
I am sick. Was yesterday too. Missed the second day of ockey tryouts. Missed school today which I reall needed to be at too. Grrarrrr….
Hi everyone! Nice to see you again.
We got out of school early due to a bomb threat. I’m really not sure whether or not to take it seriously. I don’t really want our school to blow up, even if no one gets hurt. I’d probably have to transfer elsewhere and I like this school. We have a theater program, and an auditorium, and an enormous science department. So yeah. I hope it doesn’t get bombed. All this makes me feel unsafe.
On the bright side, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival was AMAZING. AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING. The plays and the field trip in general. Let’s see. Starting at the beginning.
The bus ride down was pretty fun, I spent the first few hours staring out the window or listening to E’s music, and then E and HF and I wrote six-word stories, and then I took a nap, and then we played bus games. It was very amusing, cause JN (teacher) was sitting way in the front of the bus and spent most of the trip sleeping, and all eleven kids were sitting in the last five rows. At one point we all crept up and stood/sat around her waiting for her to wake up and find all the students staring at her, but it didn’t work and we went back to bus games.
Then we got to the hotel, and checked in and everything. I shared a room with A and B. It was shocking how much makeup and hair products they had between them. Then we went swimming, only I didn’t have a swimsuit, so I ended up just swimming in my shorts and shirt. Take my advice, guys, and don’t swim in a long-sleeve shirt.
We had dinner at this strange Chinese place, and I got hum bao, or something that was supposed to be hum bao, but more icky. I gave it to S; he wanted to throw it the ceiling when he got home and see if it stuck.
After that dinner, we headed over to the park. They have this fountain in Ashland, very famous, and on the way up we kids who were new to this were told how good the water was. Well, they were lying. It was gross. But then we went to this huge structure, made out of ropes and stuff, and we climbed all over it. Either E or S or both wanted to play Tag on it, but the rest of us were firmly against that, so we left and went and did skits elsewhere. There were two groups, and each had a few elements of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and one character, and we took those elements and the character and made a skit with the plot given us. I was Helena, and the plot was about kids from our school coming to Ashland to either perform/see a play (the other group did see, we did perform). I won a ten-dollar gift certificate to Fred Meyer’s for the most entertaining actor/actress.
Oh my, I’ve been typing for a very long time, given that I haven’t even got to the plays yet. To make a long story short, we played Hide and Seek in the dark, went back to the hotel where we ate ice cream and watched King Kong, spent a rather miserable night without enough blankets, and got up the next morning to go to an acting workshop. Which was fun. I got to be Titania there. Sort of. When that was done we headed over to the theater and saw Fences.
Play Review No. 1: Fences
It was really good. Not as good as I hoped, but still good. I was pretty bored with the first act and can’t even remember what happened, but the second was much, MUCH better, and sparked some interesting discussion on the bus. The whole play was very well done, although the plot was sometimes tedious, and the set was STUNNING. God. I think I want to be an OSF techie.
After that, we got to shop a bit and then went back to the hotel. DW, DN, B, A, S, N, and I went to a sushi place that was nearby. Unfortunately, because there were seven of us, it took a REALLY long time to get a table, and then a long time to get food, and then a long time to wait in line so we could pay, and we were late, and B, DN, A, and N went back to the hotel without S, DW, and I, so we ran all the way back and nearly killed ourselves running out in front of a car, and then we were the first people on the bus.
Play Review No. 2: Welcome Home, Jenny Sutter
I didn’t have very high hopes for this play. It’s a play about a woman marine returning from Iraq, wandering off to deal with her problems, all that, and that just didn’t appeal. But it was really funny when it wasn’t being touching, even when it was actually, and I am in love with the theater we saw that one in, which only heightened my enjoyment.
That night we all gathered in the boys’ room again (it was weird how we all gravitated there, since it was the smallest and messiest of all three rooms) and watched Jurassic Park.
The next day we had our backstage tour, which was great. And then we went shopping, or, in my case, looking around and finding nothing I deemed wonderful enough to spend Mom’s money on, and then we saw A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
Play Review No. 3: A Midsummer Night’s Dream
The OSF people seem very fond of taking Shakespeare plays and putting them in non-Shakespeare setting, for example, As You Like It performed as a Western (I didn’t see that one, but they did it). This particular play was performed as a sixties/seventies psychedelic thing. Normally I would shudder at this sort of thing, but it was actually really good, and very fun to watch. Plus it was in the same theater as Fences, and I swear it was unrecognizable. They change the set for every play! Fences was huge and elaborate, and Midsummer was very sparse and versatile. It was great. I had a lot of fun.
After Midsummer HG, A, B, JO, and I waited outside for the actor who played Puck. Last year JN had him come to breakfast, and they wanted to invite him again. I wanted him to come to breakfast as well, of course, but I wasn’t quite as fanatic about it. While we were at it we asked the tour guide (also an actor), the woman who played Helena, and a few other people. They all had prior engagements, and so eventually we left and dispersed to go shopping. I didn’t buy anything this time around, either, and it started snowing of all things, despite the warm air. And then the air got a little colder, and JO, HG, HF, E, and I trooped back to the bus and waited an hour for the rest of the gang to show up. And then we went roller skating, which was lots and lots of fun. I’m very inelegant though. When it come to stopping my technique is to slam into the nearest wall. I only fell down once, trying not to run over HG, who was trying not to run over a little kid. And HG and DN and I did a trio skat, which was lots of fun.
Then we went back to the hotel, and HF, E, DN, N, A, B, and I played cards until midnight. DN took one of our room keys my accident, or something, but he gave it back. Then in the morning (which was very snowy, by the way) A and I woke up and were hungry, so we went to find JN, and then discovered our room key didn’t work. So we tried it in the boys’ door, and it worked, but it didn’t solve our problem, so we had to go bang on our door until B woke up and opened it.
And then we rode back home and played cards and a movie trivia game the whole way. ‘Twas fun.
Heyyy, me too! Being sick ssuucckkss
Ooohhhh I love hockey!
45- Whee, sounds like a ton of fun ^^ I’ve never been on any school trips that are sleepaways, sadly…
46- It does indeed >.≤ But hockey rocks. Although now I won’t get to go to that camp : /
45-That sounds spiffing! All of our school sleepaway trips are annoying “community-building” experiences.
45-That sounds like soooo much fun!!!! I have never been on any school trips like that.
Well, I got a new phone today. Mine was stolen. Bleh.
I have nothing to say really. OH! Back to the homework rant. So we went to see my uncle from India yesterday, and they were talking about how kids shouldnt have so many responsibilities, and we should just get to be kids. Maybe its immature for me to say it since I’m the kid, but I agree. We have so much to do, and so little time to do other things as we grow older into middle school and high school. Ick.
Well, I etter go do my homework VERY carefully, so that my crazy teacher doesnt get angry again….we didnt even do anything wrong…
45- that trip sounds quite awesome.
I now have a pendant made from a piece of an old plate. it is pretty.
– 45 that sounds AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the only sleepaway school trips i have been on were to this organic farm place, which was nice, but that sounds rather more interesting. what does OSF stand for?
this morning i had to get up really early and see a historical reenactment of an extremely famous battle thingy in our town. it was rather insufferable. then i had pancakes at the church we sometimes go to, which was a fundraiser. the pancakes, not the church.
why get up at 5.oo and eat pancakes when you could get up at a resonable hour and have peanut butter pows at home???????
oh, and this whole cult thing is scary.
keep posting. don’t stop.
51- OSF = Oregon Shakespeare Festival, a huge event in Ashland, Oregon, that goes from about February to November, with three theaters, probably a dozen plays, and an awful lot of actors, most of whom are in more than one play. It’s truly amazing, and if I can get one of my parents to take me, I’m definitely going back and using my free ticket to see Othello or Comedy of Errors.
45- That sounds lovely, Alice! By the way, I’ve assigned your last name in m’book to be Sanci. Alice Sanci. I don’t know where your character fits in yet, it’s in the unassigned section with the other names I haven’t found a use for yet.
55- I’m in your book? Sweet! How do you pronounce Sanci?
40- I’ve read a lot of them. My favorite so far is probably “Guards! Guards!”
45 – That sounds fun! I hope that my trip to D.C. will be that fun. -is excited already-
56- I don’t know. Probably as it looks. Wikipedia said it was an uncommon French and Italian surname.
Oh, wow. I see the pointy tips on the eggs. Strange.
I hate speeches. I want them to explode.
I will now go to the Complaints and Rants thread.
Goodbye.
Today we did our first real rehearsal of our school play. We’ve worked for months, gotten everything almost perfect, and guess what? first rehearsal means time to incorpotate the “participation”. At my school, eveeryone gets a part. EVEN IF YOU DON’T TRY OUT. They give everybody some part dancing during a song with their class or something, which effectively screws up the play. I can understand having 1st-graders dressing up as stars for a love song (cuteness factor), but we’re playing one song TWICE IN A ROW for one class to come on and dance to an instrumental version of the song. I HATE THE “PARTICIPATION”.
(Sorry About the rant)
Other than that, I’m in a really good mood!
On Wednesday we’re off-book, which means we have to have ALL our lines memorized. Uh-oh.
Heh, I miss being in plays. At my school you have to audition, and they cut people. So if you’re a freshman you don’t get in, as a general rule. However, the spring play this year actually took some freshmen, which was just great, because it’s the only one I didn’t try out for. -_-
64- Aw. *pies* Can you get a tech position?
Our school has an Advanced Drama class assures that you get a part, even if it’s not very big. Mine is pretty big, though. And I’m getting better with the physical contact. I still think my acting kind of sucks. it takes a while for me to get really good at it. I should work on it more, trying out different tones of voice and stuff.
I’m not adjusted yet to the fact that I actually have to go to school tomorrow. Why couldn’t we have gotten out early tomorrow, instead. We have to do these Earth day activities, and because I forgot to sign up for one last week, I got signed up automatically to see “An Inconvenient Truth”, which takes up seventh period and both tutorials. As if it wasn’t bad enough that they were robbing me of English. Grr.
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FOR EMMATHEDUCK AND PIGGY
I’m reading Lord of the Flies for English. Happy?
65: I suppose I could be part of the tech, but now that I’ve missed so many performing opportunities I’ve got sort of an all-or-nothing attitude about it. But I’m going to do a four-week musical and a one-week improv workshop this summer.
By-the-by, has anyone seen Midnight Fiddler? It’s a semi-long story, but I ended up practicing my viola around midnight (i.e., half an hour ago–WHAT AM I DOING UP?? Ah well. It’s vacation. I can keep a crazy sleep schedule if I want.) and I thought she might find that amusing.
66) Lord of the Flies is excellent…it’s one of my favorite books actually.
ughhhh I have to go work on stuff for our website in web design…faskjgdajkgad
I have created a new species in the Museica. Come see it on post 184 of the ships’ logs thread! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
69- So you did. There’s no need to announce it on every thread, though.
So, it’s Earth Day.
Happy Earth Day…?
I got out of school early because of a throbbing headache. Yay me.
i dont know if i want to be here anymore. i feel lke noone truly cares if i go or stay. i might come back, but i’m not promisong anything. MB is a great place, i just feel like i’ve changed and this isnt right for me anymore. i might lurk, but unless there is something to say, i probably wont post. goodbye for now. i might return.
Trebel_Cone_Freeskier!
72- Don’t say that! Don’t leave, dude! We care!
66- It could be worse. You could have had to watch The Core.
I celebrated Earth Day in Central Park, and then read the “Pale Blue Dot” essay out loud at home.
Three cheers for the only planet known to harbor life!
Hip hip hooray!
Hip hip hooray!
Hip hip hooray!
72- Nooooooooooooo, don’t leave! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
73 and 75 – i probably wont leave forever. i just think i need to take a break. i might lurk for a while and maybe say something. who knows anymore. i just feel like there is nothing left for me to say now.
i’m sorry
74- It depends who knows. Aliens might know that their planet harbors life and that our planet harbors life, so then our planet wouldn’t be the only planet known to harbor life. I think you mean the only planet known to humans to harbor life! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
76-Don’t leave forever! Come back!
*reads thread thoroughly*
51-That’s cool. My old school went to an organic farm in 4th grade, which was super fun. Unfortunately, my new school, because our grade is enormous, can only go to big places catered to survive invasions of children. Ah well. Its just fun to be doing sleepaway’s with your friends no matter where one is…
72: I’m sure the blog would lose some of its sparkle if you left forever. Don’t stay away too long!
For Earth Day, I went around with my friend picking up trash on a path in our town. Along the way, we found four quarters, a dime, and two nickels––$1.20. Who says helping the earth doesn’t pay?
72 – Don’t leave! Or, if you do leave, make sure you come back soon.
My tooth hurts. Really bad…
Today the entire senior class got to go to a program scaring students into not driving drunk. It was poignant at some points, but overdone in others, and it went on for quite a while, which ruined the effect.
80- Your tooth hurts? Do you know why?
Goodbye, Treble_Cone_Freeskier. I’m not sure if I knew you all that well, at least under that name, but if you went by something else earlier that I remember I will be just as sad to see you go. But I compleatly understand why you’re choosing to leave, so I won’t stop you… *hugs&choklit* Fare thee well.
81 – That’s what DARE and Drug Ed. are for.
72- Aw.
I’ve given up trying to convince people not to leave. Remember to come back soon! 
81- Whee. Fun.
I’m sick. AGAIN. Argh… *sighs* I swear, it has to be school. Maybe I’m not getting enough sleep? Eight hours on average is definitely enough sleep, right?
Mom came back from New Orleans yesterday. She brought me a clear pendant with forget-me-nots inside it, and an applique of a bluebird, and the news that I’m going to fly to Santa Barbara in May to see a play. ^^ *is madly and passionately in love with theater*
Lines are due tomorrow. I have them mostly. I’ll probably forget as soon as I no longer have the security of my script, but oh well. I’m more worried about my blocking.
81- Weird… yesterday my PE teacher gave us his yearly life story meant to discourage us from drugs, alcohol, etc. (Coincidences…)
Final reviews began today. Nobody warned me. I blame You. Yes, you, the one reading this. Did you warn me? No. So now I must suffer instead of getting started early. I sure hope you’re happy.
Oh yeah, it’s Earth Day, so i was wondering, why do we only celebrate the Earth? Why not Mars, or the Moon, or Saturn, or Kokopelli, or Jupiter, or anything else?
Belle had a seizure last night and died.
And I made a pact with one of my freinds that we wouldn’t cut for a month and see how we do. Now half of me regrets it…
There’s a Kill Alec club, because he keeps forgetting his lines and has NO improv skillz. Unlike Kasey. She’s hilarious when she’s improving.
87-
My condolences. I wish I could say something more meaningful.
HAPPY EARTH DAY!!! YAY!!!
I guess it’s a little late for that…. it’s almost over. well, there’s still 3 hours left for whoever stays awake.
72- not that I condone you leaving, but sometimes you do need a break. When I got too busy and my computer was too old to post, I didn’t think I’d come back, also because I felt like my old posts were dumb. But then I missed it. So, do whatever you want but don’t rule out coming back.
87-Aww I’m sorry for Belle. And you really should try not to cut. I had to do it like that too. I would just go as long as I could stand and the next time I would go longer and longer, and now it’s been over a year.
81-Yay for not drinking and driving?
There’s this thing in a local salon where if you sign the “I won’t drink and drive” pact you can get a free haircut the week before prom. I will do that when I’m old enough, because it’s a very easy way to get a free haircut. I’m never going to drink anyway, so it would be a bit impossible to drink and drive if I don’t drink.
87- Aww, I’m sorry.
*hugs*
I saw An Inconvenient Truth today. It had absolutely no effect on me whatsoever. The only thinking I did after seeing it was to wonder if I had any new thoughts, which I did not. Maybe if AIT had told us about how to lower our carbon footprint, I would have been interested, but it did not, so I didn’t really care. In order to appeal to me, it would have to tell me something new, and it did not.
90-That’s what I’m trying to do. It is a lot easier with Clarissa, though.
(91) Alice,
That’s an interesting non-reaction. Have you seen my review of the children’s edition of the AIT book? I wondered whether it might affect kids that way. You should be able to read it here:
www .nytimes. com/2007/05/13/books/review/Coontz-t.html
88- That reminds me…
Cordolences! Cordolences! Our heartiest cordolences, cordolences, dordolences! Cordolences, cordolences, cordolences, cordolences, cordolences, cordolences, cordolences!
86- We sort of celebrate the Moon and Saturn in the days of the week… but Earth day is cuz Earth is the only planet we’ve been trashing. It’s to get people aware of pollution, global warming, etc so we can fix it.
87- awww, I’m really really sorry.
87, but deserves separate line- I had a club like that a few years ago cuz my friend couldn’t learn his lines. We were going to strangle him backstage if he missed his cues on opening night cuz me and another friend knew all his lines.
87- I’m really sorry, Beavo. *virtualhugs&choklit*
Don’t start cutting. I can see how it’d seem atracting right now, but I personally (and others on here, I am sure) would really wish you didn’t. Every time you feel like it, just come on here and we’ll give you hugs, mkay? You’re not alone.
Curse the inability to edit these comments. I apologize for the double post.
93- I don’t think it affects all kids that way, but I think most of the kids who acknowledge global warming probably already know the majority of the information provided. It might have had a different effect if I didn’t take everything I hear with a grain of salt. I can’t think of any sources that are completely and totally TRUE, and so I don’t think that anyone can tell the absolute truth, just the version they know.
72~
Goodbye TFS, we’ll be sorry to see you go. I’m sure we all do understand, the blog gets overwhelming at times.
Bon Voyage!
82 – Nope. But it’s not hurting anymore, which is good.
87 – I’m really sorry about that.
Okay…this should probably go on the Complaints and Rants thread, but I’ve already posted one long rant there today, so I may as well post it here…
I feel like I’m losing my language. See, I lived in California for 7 years, and from Kindergarten to 4th grade I was in a Duel Immersion Spanish program at my school. Basically, by 3rd or 4th grade I could have been mistaken for a native speaker, since I had grown up learning it.
But now I moved to Washington, and I’m feeling lost. Washington’s Latino/Mexican American population is literally non-existant. So, basically, I don’t know anybody else that speaks Spanish.
So, really, I’m losing my language. Not my first language, of course, but a very close second. I’m forgetting it, and it’s awful. I can remember a lot of words, but I’m forgetting the words for backpack and Wednesday and little stupid stuff like that, that I should know. I’m forgetting the tenses of verbs in Spanish, which my teacher pounded into me in second grade, and where to put the accent, like we learned in third grade. (I remember it faintly, but barely)
It’s horrible. Imagine if you spent 3 or 4 years living in a country where absolutely nobody spoke English. That’s about what it feels like. It’s scary, too.
The funny thing is the way I think about it. I literally think that I’m losing my culture. I spent 4 1/2 years of my life amongst Mexican Americans and first or second generation immigrants. I’m forgetting, and it’s awful. It’s awful.
What’s more, there’s not a lot I can do about it. My school offers a Spanish class, but it’s Spanish 1 (which is about what I learned in first and second grade…) and it’s only for 8th graders. Even worse, the high school that I’m going to go to only offers Spanish 1 and Spanish 2…and Running Start, which would allow me to take college classes, is only available to Juniors and Seniors.
I don’t want to forget. It’s scary. My dad always says it will come back to me as soon as I get immersed again, but…what if that never happens? What if I really do forget?
I’m sorry. I know this post is really long, and I’m sorry for that. But I sort of feel like crying…and writing this is really the only way I know to get it all out…
Beavo – So sorry about Belle
Woof woof woof woof woof.
Beavo- I’m really sorry.
Cat’s Meow- Puedas hablar conmigo en Español. Entiendo como es ser estudiante de immersion. Fui a una escuela immersion tambien. (argh, es dificil poner accentos en este computadora) Puedas ver peliculas en espanol? El Laberinto del Fauno es uno de mis favoritos. A veces siento que tambien tengo cultura hispanohablante pero de todas paises, especialmente Argentina y Mexico. Es un poco dificil porque no venga de un pais como eso y parece blanco y soy blanco pero tambien he tenido esta cultura desde el kinder. Si quieres, aunque es escrito en la computadora, puedo hablar contigo en espanol.
101-Attempted Translation:
You can speak with me in Spanish. I understand how it is to be an immersion student. I went to an immersion school as well. (argh, it’s difficult to use accents on this computer) Could you watch movies in Spanish? Pan’s Labyrinth is one of my favorites. Sometimes *something something something* also have Spanish-speaking culture, but from all the countries, especially Argentina and Mexico. It’s a bit difficult because I don’t come from a country like that *something somethings* and I am white but also *something something* this culture *something something* If you want, *something* is written on the computer, I can talk with you in Spanish.
As you can see, I’m good at Spanish, but by no means fluent.
101 – Si, yo se que puedo hablar con otras personas en el Internet, porque muchos de mix amigos (por cual razon) hablan espanol. Y, si, es casi imposible poner los accentos en las palabras en este computadora.
No se si peliculas sera el idea mejor, pero es un posible. Gracias para su surgencia. Creo que sera bien, porque si no hay personas aqui que pueden hablar Espanol, necessito encontrar otras que puedan. 
Gracias, otra vez. Y creo que voy a ir a Coy Woodnesse ahora, o voy a continuar aqui, que no sera bien.
Ya me siento mejor. ^_^
102 – I’ll try to translate the rest there.
You can speak with me in Spanish. I understand how it is to be an immersion student. I went to an immersion school as well.

If you want, although it is written on the computer, I can talk with you in Spanish.
You got most of it, though.
There are also plenty of Spanish-language radio and television channels, as well as books and magazines to read.
Immersion Spanish would be amazing. These vocab lists are hardly useful. What’s the good of talking about food if I don’t even know the verb tenses? I was going to write this is Spanish, but my dictionaries are upstairs and I have to go to bed anyways.
106 – It is. It’s incredibly amazing.
I’ve been missing California a lot more lately…which is funny, because I’ve barely thought about it in years.
Sorry for the likely double post.
I just realized, now that I submitted it, how horrible Post 103 sounds. ._. I typo a lot when I’m typing in Spanish, and that was no exception.
Anyways, translation:
I don’t know if movies would be the best idea, but it’s a possibility. Thanks for your suggestion. I think that will be good, because if I don’t have people here that can speak Spanish, I’ll need to find some who can. 
101 – Yes, I know that I can talk with other people on the Internet, because lots of my friends (for whatever reason) speak Spanish. And, yes, I know that it is almost impossible to put the accents on the words on this computer.
Thans, again. I think that I’m going to go to Coy Woodnesse now, or I’m going to just continue here, which wouldn’t be good.
I already feel better. ^_^
Wherever is the Shakespeare thread?
93- I read the kid’s version and liked it a lot. Sure, I knew most of the stuff, but he’s a great guy and I aplaud him for writing it.
Unrelated:
Did anybody watch “Bill Nye the Science Guy” when they were a kid? Wasn’t that show awesome?
91- AIT didn’t really have an affect on me, either. It might be because I don’t like Al Gore…or any politicians for that matter…but I already knew most of the information, and I have some issues about how he constantly criticized the U.S.
110- I love Bill Nye! I think I still have recorded tapes of some of his shows…
I know there was a language-y thread this summer… what’s it called again? no hablo espanol mais je peux parler francais… est-ce qu’il y a quelqu’un qui le peut aussi?
excited cuz my (incredibly) limited spanish was enough to understand most of 103, 101.
Beavo, I know your situation… my dog had to have surgery in February and she had a 50% chance of survival and I was a wreck… if she had died I don’t know what I would have done. My life would pretty much have been over. *Virtual Hug*
never mind about the language thread question from my last post, I found it.
HI EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!
Yay, I have internet again!! Such joy.
Well, I can;t read aall the posts right now, I’m rather in haste…But I’ll inform you of how I’ve been, aren’t I nice?
I had a great weekend in DC. I went to a Spiritual Activists Summit that was really, really neat. It was great to meet other Christian Scientists and the workshops and lectures were fantastic. (All the atheist bloggers, don’t even bother telling me how stupid you think I am, I know your sentiments and don’t agree.)
Now I’m helping Mom out while she’s making bread, several hundred loaves of it. AAACCCCCCKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, I haven’t really had enough time to get on the computer, along with insane phone problems. (can you hear me now? No! darn.) So, along with that is the deprivation of computer time…..bummer. If I don’t get on later, this’ll be that last post from me for a while, we’re going to set up camp tonight and then sometime within the next day of so I’ll be at a historical event, with no electricity, much less MB capacity.
So, unless I have more time later, I love you all, pies, peace and HPBs to all!!!!!!!!!!!! =[|} =[|}
{|]= {|]=
(AAHH!!! the poor bunny!)
yess. Spanish Immersion is amazing. Je parle Francais aussi. I suggested movies because reading Spanish on the internet doesn’t let you listen to it. Sometimes I just like the Spanish to flow over my hears. Oh! I have a literature website and I believe it is mostly harmless, GAPAs. it is in Spanish so it’d be mostly for the Spanish speakers amongst us or those interested. http:// www .diagonautas. com. ar/ it is de-linkified now. If anyone has any good suggestions of books written originally in Spanish to read, I’d appreciate it.
The only problem with Immersion, or my Immersion program at least, is that we didn’t learn much grammar. But I went to Spanish camp in 2006 for a month as a crediter (the level that gives you high school credit) and I learned so much both grammar and culture-wise. Most of the counselors are from Argentina and there’d always be someone drinking Mate (a tea-like drink, bitter and very energizing, rather addictive) and you’d beg some off of them.
87 – Beavo, I’m sorry. Was she rather old?
115~ hmm that sounds interesting. I don’t speak Spanish, or any other language, really, but I’d like to learn.
Je parle un peu de français.
118 – Huh??? I don’t know French. I know 5 words/phrases:
Bonjour
Omelet du fromage
Fromage
Au revoir
Je m’appelle
115 – Gracias. I’ll go check out that website right now.
I am deeply in love with theater, to the point where I start pining away three hours after my acting class gets out. I’m beginning to think that maybe theater is the way to go career-wise. I could never make up my mind before, but at this point, I don’t think I could live without it for more than a week.
Meow – Have you considered going to a Spanish immersion summer camp? I went to a French immersion camp for 2 summers (2 weeks sessions). It’s a great way not to forget languages. There are campers there who range from only speaking a few words to being fluent.
87-*gives condolences* I’m really sorry!
122-I did French immersion for one week last summer (kitesurfing camp, total safety hazard) and I am now making some feeble and mostly futile attempt to read L’Etrangere in French. My French is getting better, but…let’s just say…
I just started learning Italian yesterday and am very very very excited! *spazzes* Its so much fun knowing languages. Its like being in on a secret.
I talk to ex-MB and MB people online outside the blog.
Just wondering if the GAPAs are going to censor that.
I have a random question for the GAPA’s. When you go to moderate the posts, how do they appear to you? Do you have to look through all the threads to see which ones have posts that need moderation or do you have some sort of software that displays all posts immediately? I have been excessively curious about this since I started posting…*finish spazzing*
Hmmm…I don’t really know what else to write. However, I don’t feel justified in hitting submit for such a short post.
Oh, I just remembered something. A couple of days ago my friend was waring *gasp* a shirt with a hpb (drawn somewhat differently from the Muse ones) and underneath it the words, “cute, but physcho”. The, the next day, I saw a magnet with a hpb (again, not drawn to the Muse pattern, but still recognizable) under which the word “evil” was insciribed, in my friends’ locker. Has the world suddenly converted to Mostly Harmless? Or am I majorly missing something?
Beavo, I’m really sorry about Belle.
*major condolences*
I really wish I could say more.
on the same note as 122- Concordia Language Villages are good. I’ve done them before. You could either take a two week session or a month long one. The month long one gives high school credit so it is like taking Spanish class. I’d recommend Bemidji as a location. I think you’d love it. (GAPAS, I won’t be there this summer or anything and I don’t live near the Spanish camps)
121- I am deeply in love with making fun of my friend when he screws up his part in theater. he got the main role, so he screws up more often. oh well, our play is tomorrow. wish me luck!
Hypatia (125): We see the new posts all together in one window. So no need to check every single thread. My fingers are going numb just thinking about that!
122 – Around here, “Spanish Camp” equals a camp for 3-12 year olds (which I couldn’t go to anyways) where they learn the colors and the days of the week. Trust me, I’ve tried.
125 – Awesome! (About the bunnies, I mean)
127 – Oh, that sounds really cool. I’ll Google it.
I have returned!
128 – Good luck!
I finished my research outline in 4 hours! Which is quite an accomplishment, considering that it’s due tomorrow and I hadn’t even categorized my notecards yet.
(128) Break a leg, TGYPWYA!
72~ Oh no!! i just read your post…I hope you don’t leave forever. I always enjoy reading your posts. I do care that you’re here, and I’ve been having such a wonderful time getting to know you on the blog.
Please don’t go!
125- Oh, I think I know what you’re talking about… I don’t like them. Very mean-spirited. I don’t find it amusing at all.
We just came back from seeing “Be Kind Rewind” which was very cute and funny. I really should go to that theater more. It’s only four dollars.
Today some fellow came to our drama class and we auditioned for his short film. I dunno if I’ll get a role. I don’t really care, although it would look good on a resumè. It was fun to audition.
Is it just me, or has the curtain acquired a small flame in the corner?
135- Oh! So it has!
125- WHAT IS MOSTLY HARMLESS?!?!?!
I’ve asked ppl to explain more than once, and no one’s ever answered…
I found a non-muse hpb on google, cut it out, and pasted it onto my blue “upper class” folder. Not so “upper class” anymore, is it?
136- This is “Mostly Harmless”: https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=1267
136 – I KNEW I wasn’t going insane.
Hi GAPA’s I was woundering if we could have a graduation thread.
Thanks!
The beneficent GAPAs have granted your request.
I wonder what the curtain will ultimately reveal….
This is one of my favorite images………Or did it just get zapped? [Yup. –Rebecca]
141- Maybe something’s…sitting on the eggs. *shudders*
i believe those spiky things on the eggs in the third row that some people have mentioned are simply the eggs behind those eggs and the shadows cast on them by the eggs in front of them.
142-But why?
144- that, or it’s a pimple.
Da Da… DaDa… Dada… EARS…. THE NEW MOVIE… FROM THE CREATOR”S OF BUNIEY…
there’s something in the trees…
~~~
Sorry for the double post. I just thought of this as I posted the other one.
OMG! Warriors ROCK! If you don’t know what they are they are the most AWESOMEST book series in the world, by Erin Hunter! I just finished Firestar’s Quest! And BTW! Harry Potter also ROCKS! If you don’t know what that is, I’m not going to tell you.
But in Warriors cats start out as Something-kit like say…Willowkit. Then when they become an apprentice they become Something-paw like Willowpaw. Then when they become a warrior/full medicine cat, their name turns to Something-somethingelse, like WIllowheart, Ivystorm, (my fake warrior name) Tigerstripe. If they become leader their name changes to Something-star like Willowstar, Ivystar, Tigerstar(who BTW is a real warrior cat and a major evildude
Sorry my comment was TOTALLY RANDOM but random is cool, right? And regarding the weird “eggs” I think theyre superballs! U know? Bouncy-balls? BTW, nnno, I am NOT insane. So don’t even think about it! And if my fellow Warrior-loving friend with the warrior name Icescar is out there, HI!
wow. i haven’t posted in ages, or so it seems, so i have no idea what is going on. and i’m too lazy to read the whole thing and find out.
the eggs are majorly crampin’ my style, man. as in, TERRIFYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what if, behing the curtain, there are more eggs? leigon upon leigon, waithing to hatch and conquer the world for whomever they work for? what hidiously sinister power lurks on museblog???????????????????????????
Erm, sorry for the two totally random previous posts. SOMEBODY! post something with cats/dogs in it! i want to see u get bunnied! or maybe here on MuseBlog they poke u w/ the pointy bits on the eggs/superballs. Ok here goes nothin…CATS ROCK!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Let’s hope it works!
Wait. If I get bunnied, then you won’t be able to read this cuz it’ll be bunnied. Or it could be posted AND bunnied, couldn’t it?
Or could it NOT? this makes my head hurt. and, HOMEWORK DOES TOTALLY SUCK!
149- Is your friend’s name possibly Allegra? *thinks* No, wait, she’s Flamepool. Anyhow, she’s here under the name of kiki_the_great, so if you want to talk with a fellow Warriors fan, keep an eye out for her. A good place to discuss Warriors (or, indeed, any other book) would be here. Click the link to go to a thread completely dedicated to books.
Oh, and welcome! *Throws welcome pies* You’re a newcomer, right? Go to the Welcome, Neophytes thread (right on the main page) for help, guidance, and quantities of projectile pastry. (Don’t worry, that’s just our way of saying we’re happy to see you.)
151-
To my knowledge, we are the only blog on the Web which has a hot pink bunny smiley. To make it, do this:
: idea :
Except without the spaces.
151- They bunnies have long stopped eating Cat/dog comments. they start to take over MB…
No we aren’t.
SEE! They lie!
s No we don’t…
look, a Mr. Green!
s Where?
Over here.
s *eats 
Warriors = great but easy reading
125-It’s probably Happy Bunny. Look for him on the internet sometime. He changes colors, and is extremely sarcastic.
151-Cat/dog posts dot get bunnified on here, but it you type “colon” idea “colon”, and replace those words with actual colons it will make a HPB like this
Awwww one of our baby gerbils died today. It’s so sad.
We think that they were inbred which may be why some of them have deformed feet, and others like the one that died could have internal deforimities.
My Stumpy is still good though.
Wait a minute…I posted. Where’d it go? Maybe I just decided not to post it or something. I have a really poor memory for things like that. I can so easily imagine stuff that I’m never sure how it was when i last saw it. Like closing the pasture gate. I used to go halfway down the path to the house and then go back ’cause I couldn’t remember if I’d latched the gate.
i want to try…
: idea :
oh, no, wait.
still didn’t work!
hmph! oh well. now that that wee adventure is over. i only read like 1o pages of warriors, but i didn’t like it. has anyone got any other books to read? i just read the sky is falling by kit pearson. it was pretty good, but the others in the series wern’t as good. well, i haven’t read the third, but what the ever.
hey, it did work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! would ya look at that!
i usually just stay away from smileys. but i don’t know if i’ll be able to help myself this time…
Grant O! Good news! Your “Staving Off January and You” could be published in Muse! Could you so kindly give me the link to the original post? I need to send it to Supah Editor Ladee!
Meh. I have a cough. Science Olympiad State tomorrow!
Gosh! I haven’t been here in forever! Grrrrrrrr. My online teacher gave me practically a million gazillion labs this week that I had to do. I think she just likes torturing me…….
111-Well, he’s not really a politician now. He’s a science popularizer. Like Neil Tyson of NOVA Science Now.
oo! I just thought of something TOTALLY GENIUS. Although you might think it sounds stupid, people thought Albert Einstein was stupid until he became famous. MAYBE…each of the eggs is a tiny universe, and there are like, twelve parallel universes right next to each other!
well, ok. maybe that’s just plain stupid.
Maybe. Who can tell in this crazy world we live in……
I woke up this morning and this nonsense popped into my head.
The Editors don’t have bikes. They are made of mushrooms, asiago, and saffron. That would not be much good it a professional race, would it? Well, I am off to eat some chow mein. Cheerio!
162-I am strongly reminded of Severus Snape……I mean the MEAN Snape, but who knows, maybe your teacher is really just like him…Mean on the outside, Noble on the inside…
(165) I have a bike.
I made it through the day of silence without saying 1 word!
My friend Becky insists that I said Hi to her in the hall, but I actually just waved and everyone else agrees with me. Maybe I just talk so quiet that she didn’t notice the difference.
w00t! April vacation is here. I will now be leaving for a week.
Goodbye pplz. See you next Friday!
!!!! I just got my March issue of Muse (finally!), and guess what! Kagy got in! She had one of her questions answered in the Q&A.
169- *waves*
Yeah…Today we started working the play in Drama. Unfortunately, the first three pages involves a lot of standing very still and erect with my hands at my sides and my feet close together, which is NOT FUN.
I’ve got a bike, you can ride it if you like, I’d give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it.
I talked today
Mostly when teachers asked q’s and stuff, because I didn’t realize until this morning it was *today* or else I would have told them yesterday I wasn’t going to be speaking. And I have a bit at home to parents and stuff, and Aymee (tech director) said we really had to talk today, because we were positioning lights. : /
Has anyone thought about the long-term future of the MB recently?
I just assume that we’ll move to Second Life and ultimately wind up as a holographic virtual-reality environment when the Web is replaced by the Tesseract or the Matrix or whatever they decide to call it.
174- In-ter-est-ing. Who might your successors as GAPAs be?
You mean, in the event of our untimely assassination? It might be injudicious of us to encourage speculation along those lines.
173- Not really. I like Robert’s idea, though. I have my speculations but they’re far too boring to share with everyone.
Robert- Assassination? Uh-oh.
172-The thing said that there were exceptions for teachers and parents asking questions, but you couldn’t talk to other people like friends, or start any conversations.
I carried around a note that said A Day of Silence…for the teens who are afraid to speak about who they are, and those who were hurt because they did.
Then there was a thing explaining why we were being silent instead of making speeches, and that it was more noticeable and such.
A bunch of people kept trying to make me talk. A guy in my science class told me to stand up for myself to try and make me talk.
176- That’s true- it was speculation of exactly that sort that encouraged (or rather, will encourage) Ronald Tardiff to stage his takeover of Muse.
Yes — an unpleasant future, that one.
NOOOOOOOO! GAPAS, DO NOT GET YOURSELF ASSASINATED!!!!!!!!
181- At least it turns out well… although I must say it didn’t for poor Romana.
184- *is insanely jealous* OUR school library doesn’t have AotSP, oh no, never.
I’m going to go watch Horatio Hornblower on Youtube, if I can find it. If I can’t I’ll try LOTR. If I can’t find that, I’ll go read.
184- Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat??? You have AotSP at your school library????? My school doesn’t even have The Hitchhiker’s Guide!!!!!!! *is angry, yet slightly amused*
186- I was very surprised. I just was looking around, and I saw the word “pie” which always catches my attention. I looked closer and saw “Attack of the Smart Pies” I was astonished and was like “Could it be? No, it can’t,’ than I saw Larry Gonick! I immediately went to check it out!
hey GAPAs, you know how Robert and… I think it was Rosanne both played dead people once? Well I have now too. In our most recent school play I played someone who is dead onstage for almost all of the second act. There are two other dead people with me too.
(188) I was the other dead person. Fun, isn’t it?
I FOUND IT!!! And I have (sort of) satisfied my yearning for very dramatic adventure movies.
Sort of.
I still have at least one more episode that won’t leave me clinging desperately to the last shreds of Reason, with my feet dangling over the Abyss of Extreme Preoccupation (the Abyss of Extreme Preoccupation is where I usually go after (or while, or both) I read a good book or see a good movie; it’s not quite to Obsession but way past Interest). I think it’s the Duchess and the Devil that ends that way? Or maybe not… Anyway, I think I can get a stronger grip…
*climbs up rope of Reason* Ah, here I am, with my feet once more on terra firma. I do wish the YouTube url was a bit harder to remember…
187- I would befriend the responsible librarian.
190- I’ve been told that I look like Lt. Hornblower on tv, only with longer hair. Haven’t seen the shows though, only read some of the books.
I am not even going to bother trying to catch up with posts…if anything that requires pieing happened, consider it done. *pies randomly* Rightio. I have to go see what else is happening.
I am an MBer who vanished, but I have changed into a wizard. Specifically, a pio-mancer. I also have the power to travel between dimensions. If anyone guesses my identity, I will enroll him/her/it into the school I will found, the Abracadee Academy of Pio-mancy. It will have some brilliant optianal courses. Oh, and I am a big fan of warriors. I just finished the first arc, fifth book: A Dangerous Path.
Signing off,
Abracadee
193- Beavo?
Hello! Sorry I haven’t been on, I died and only came back to life on the eve of this morning. Which is about the same time that I finished The Fellowship of the Ring… *in small voice* for the first time. Yes, me, a huge fan of elvs, dragons, and all signs of utter fantasy, has never (before!) read the Lord of the Rings. But I had made the grave error of seeing the movies, which are not all they are cracked up to be once you get over it. Books are better. (But then, the movies have Viggo Mortensen. Hhhhmmmm……… Viggo Mortensen makes everything better. *Struggles bitterly* Maybe… they break even. Viggo Mortensen vs. JRR Tolkien. It’s a fair match.) IT*S FINALLY SPRING!!!!!! YAYAYAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tere is sun, and it got up to eighteen degrees (Robert, o living calculator, what is eighteen degrees? Sixty degrees?) Nice enough to have a blouse and summer jacket on, or a strapless dress that doesn’t even reach your knees for the brave(= me) and cool enough for jeans and frocks. But even the dog went out without her sweater, and we frisked in the sun. The dog = frisky. Me = being as lazy as possible. And on the fifteenth of may i’m going to Egypt for a class trip. apparently our teacher has a tour guide boyfriend/lover. and for other news: YES! Denmark finally got a danish band into Brittains top of the Pops list. (Alphabeat, with ”Boyfriend”. Hmmm…. You guys probably don’t know since it’s england, but it’s the one that goes ”Oh no, don’t you touch my boyfriend, he’s not your boyfriend, he’s mine. )and there’s a war going on, and I tried to reason with some boys in my class that takeing a military prep class is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard of. Talk about corrupting the young. and I cut my hair. About six inches. I can now just grab my hair from behind, so it still goes way past my shoulder blades. Yes I am flexible. I am just stretched out, so I’m just LONG. Off to explore the rest of the blog! By the way, can we post all of Lady Bunniful’s series, i’ve missed a lot. Including the beginning.
I am happy to anounce that the Vixen has returned. In the Eyes of the Moon, this is acceptable.
191- The books are v. good. Not quite as dramatic tho’, and I want DRAMA! Or at least, I wanted DRAMA yesterday. Now I’m not sure. The Even Chance is the best one anyway (that’s what I saw yesterday).
195- WOW. Egypt.
Alice-Theater! Theater! Theater!
Is there a drama thread?
197- Yup, there is. But no one goes on it.
What’s more, there were only four parts, and at least half the class auditioned. So I must have done REALLY well. O.O
I’m so happy!!!
Great!!!!!!!!!!!
199- Sweet! A short film, cool… do you know what he’s planning to do?
202- Not really. It’s about high schoolers, I know that much. And I think a drunk driving accident? I’m not sure. I’m getting a script pretty soon, though.
Has anyone around here ever played or heard of Chinese chess? (Not checkers, chess. There’s a distinct difference).
GAPAs, is nak visiting a small place in ohio that starts in
[Telling clues as to location of ebeth’s town snipped! — Rosanne]
?
DUDE! it is her! she’s coming to the middle school!
win!
193- ivystorm? Hmmm. Rabid enthusiasm for warriors fits, but I don’t know you well so I can’t guess that well.
Kiki the Great? I think you’ve been around. You might like warriors, but no suddenly vanishing off to other museiverses.
Necromancer? The -mancer part fits, but I thought you were darker in tone of writing.
post 145?
Ooh! I like Warriors!
Ahh, I don’t really post very often anymore.
Not much to say I guess…
Well, Panic At the Disco concert TOMORROW! AH! I can’t think about it too much or my head will explode.
I got Converse shoes. I am happy. Normally I don’t care about shoes, but they’re cool…
206- Oh, cool! Lucky.
I LOVE THE WARRIORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve read all of them except the most recent one, “Warriors Power of Three: Outcast”
194, 207- Nope. You are both wrong. I am none of those. I think I just said the same thing three times. La la la la la.
Lord Abracadee, can you please go to the Alter Ego thread?
212 – That’s out already? I guess I have to get it from my friend or something.
The first Power of Three book and the end of New Prophecy was a little dumb…but Dark River was much better, and Firestar’s Quest absolutely pwned.
And the “mangas” are sad imitations of real manga. They look like they were drawn by 3 year old.
Sorry, for the double post, if it is one, but I need to tell IBCF to hurry up and check his e-mail.
am i the only one here who hasn’t read warriors? it looked like a ‘meh’ book to me, but if all these musers love it so much, it must be better than i thought.
217- The first story arc is pretty good. It goes downhill from there.
I just came back from the best play that I have ever seen: Endgame by Beckett. I’ll post more (or rant, I should say) later.
217- I haven’t read ’em either.
-215 dark river pwned.
sry for the hintage, i wasn’t sure how to ask without giving it away.
but i figured it out. yay intarnetz!
she’s just gonna be working with middle schoolers though, no giant pete-hamill-party-type thing (pete hamill is coming too and there are giant posters and everything all over and he’s speaking to like five bajillion classes)
218 – I think the first few books of New Prophecy were good, too, but then it decended into “He loves me and I love him but we’re a forbidden love and zomg he hates me now but I love him now I hate him and he loves me” and that sort of stuff. The Sight was similar to that, but Dark River was a lot better. Have you read Firestar’s Quest?
Just watched “The Examination for Lieutenant.” The sad thing is that’s the last episode I really like. “The Duchess and the Devil” = meh, even though *crackle*, which is good, and “The Wrong War/The Frogs and the Lobsters” = not very good at all. Guillotines and all that, not to mention *cracklecrackle*. Then you go into the Mutiny/Retribution duo, which I like quite a bit, and then the other two, when he’s a captain and has a wife and all that, and those I don’t like at all. Too much marital drama for my taste.
The Hornblower movies are just so much better when the romance is left out. Same goes for the books, I would guess, but I actually haven’t read any of the books that have ladies so I can’t be sure.
Yay. YouTube is wonderful.
222- didn’t you say earlier that the high school and middle school are connected? I’m sure she’d appreciate/wouldn’t mind you introducing yourself! Hasn’t she posted here a few times? It is super cool she’s coming! I wish my school would bring in authors to speak. I think we did once in elementary school. My elementary school had some awesome things.
I went to an excellent play tonight.
…And now Opal is punching me and yelling in my ear because we couldn’t find a play for her to audition for. Ah, the joys of sisterhood.
Opal: I’ll bite you.
*is bitten*
Opal: Abuser! Abuser! etc.
I hereby resolve not to write anything she says anymore. *is bitten again* Lucky I’m wearing this nice padded coat and can’t feel a thing.
Lucky Meow and IBCF, you get to meet her. *sarcasm*
Opal: How are they lucky?
Me: They’re not. Note the sarcasm.
Perhaps it’s time for bed. *is nearly bitten a third time* *hits Opal on head* *gets hit on head* *and again* *thwarts blows – somewhat*
Yes, definitely time for bed.
well i feel loved.
i come on to make an appearnce, and find no birthday thread even though it is 2 hours and 5 minutes into my actual birthday.
maybe i wont ever come back. i can see you dont care enough
Hi folks!
227-Please do feel loved. Sometimes the GAPAs make the birthday thread in the late afternoon! Also realize that A. it’s still your yesterday over here and B. you posted at our one-o-clock in the morning. Don’t worry, we’ll get you your pie, but please don’t leave just because there’s a severe time difference to cope with…
Hi! Bye!
I’ll try to be back soon, maybe this afternoon/evening. Bye! *Waves* 
Red-tailed HAWK
Sorry, out of time. I will reveal my identity. I am Koko du Pelle. BURY BEATLESROCKR AND VENDEVAL IN PIES! There. Meh heh heh heh.
Signing off,
Abracadee
(201) Bookworm, are you Augwich? Or a relative of ens?
I don’t like Warriors much.
They are okay, but not really worth reading.
I’d pick up a Terry Pratchett book instead!
I’m not anyone but myself, The Bookworm.
I joined last month and had not MuseBlogged before that!
Righto. Thanks!
229- *Mumbles* Who would have guessed? *Side steps pies* well, I’m off than.
229- KdP? Seriously?
*shrieks in horror* *flees*
AHHH!!! HPBs are hatching!!
That is one of the most frightening things I have ever seen.
224- When I was reading that book, I really liked The Examination for Lieutenant too, but the Frogs and the Lobsters seemed just a long rant about how stupid the French were.
AHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YAY! THEY’RE HATCHING! -is seriously messed up when it comes to HPBs-
226 – Whee, aren’t we lucky? Oh, and since I’m pretty sure my whole family is coming, you get to meet my brother. Lucky you.
Wow… nice vid…
GAPAs, Why are there so many birthdays still there? they usally get delated a couple of days afterwords.
We usually delete an old birthday announcement every time a new one comes along, but this month they’ve been popping up fast enough to cause a pileup.
237- Pretty much.
239- Maybe they’ll get along. *imagines Opal and Meow’s brother getting along* As long as they don’t combine forces to make our lives difficult…
Only eight weeks! Or something along those lines.
242 – That’s probably what will end up happening.
-is scared for our lives-
You know, I don’t actually think we’ve talked about the Summer Kokon much on the blog at all. Everyone is probably confused about what we’re talking about right now.
I almost fainted when I saw that. Seriously. *is disturbed*
ohcake, ohcake, ohcake, I’m gonna die! They’re hatching!
Babbitt is a very boring book. Very boring indeed.
I have to read it for RDE. Bleh.
242- 8 weeks till what? Wait, you mean the Summer Kokon? HOW COME NOBODY TOLD ME???? Where is it?
227-Please come back…
I love the video! *chortles*
So, yesterday, I saw Endgame by Beckett and it was absolutely amazing. Ususally when I am watching a play, I will watch and keep track of the plot and language, but allow my mind to wander from time to time. THe entire 100 minutes I spent watching Endgame I could not think of anything but what I was watching. It was unbelievable, my mind was possessed.
243- I don’t think we’ve talked about it on the blog at ALL. Let’s make a formal announcement!
FORMAL ANNOUNCEMENT TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Meow, IBCF, and Alice will be having yet another kokonvention this summer, in Oregon this time, and spanning several days. Pictures will be sent following the event.
I’m so excited!!! You guys are coming to my town, right?
247- A small town in NW Oregon. We haven’t told you ’cause we’ve been arranging it over email. We haven’t even mentioned it on the blog ’till now.
When hpb’s come out,
Musebloggers all pout.
Except not really. Deep in our hearts of hearts, we all enjoy defeating our discolored quadriped enemies! (or at least, I think we do).
247 – As Alice said in 249, Cat’s Meow, IBCF, and Alice are planning to have a Kokon in Oregon, where Alice lives. The date is still to be confirmed, because IBCF NEEDS TO CHECK HIS E-MAIL. -is super impatient- But we definitely hope to get together sometime during the summer, for several days at the least.
249 – Pictures will also be sent during the event, I’m sure. We are coming to your town, I’m pretty sure of that. -is also super excited, in addition to being super impatient-
GAPAs, my Internet is being unusually (or, perhaps, usually) strange, so if this post was entered twice please just ignore the second one.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is just plain SCARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Since when have videos been on random threads?
Warriors! I found my copy of Dark River, after a month of looking. xD And I went to the tour!
251 – Not me! I ♥ HPBs!
254 – Awesome! Is the latest book (Outcast, or whatever) out yet?
255- Trouble is, we can’t tell you where it is…
256- Yes it is…. it came out on tuesday, I think ….
Are there any other Kokoventions planned?
255 – It’ll probably be easier to find MuseBloggers who are near you, anyways. There are very few of us West Coast MuseBloggers.
Wow! Nice ears!
258 – Oh, okay.
259 – Not that I’ve heard of, but you can always plan one.
Anyone live in the mid-west? I bet we could plan a Kokon about the same time. Unless tons of people are going somewhere else for summer.
Aah! Aah! They… hatched!
I shuddered… but at the same time, it. Was. Very. Hypnotic. Bunnies. Love. Bunnies. They. Come. Now. Ears. Pop. Up. Bunnies…
Gurk! I’m never ON anymore!
I don’t know what to write, so I’m gonna get off.
(195) Vixen, the images from both months of the Hare-athon series can be found in their own Photobucket album.
(253) Since today?
OH NO. I HAVE TO WEAR A DRESS! ._.
The eCyberMission national awards ceremony thingamabob in Washington D.C. requires formal dress, which is specifically defined as suits and ties for boys and dresses for girls. I haven’t worn a dress in years, except for this random skit I did in history earlier this year, and that was mostly as a dare. Rawr…
*blasts bunnies*
baobabballoon (who hasn’t posted in a while..where has she gone?) and i have a kokonvention almost ever weekday! we go to the same school.
Nobody at my school reads Muse. Nobody I even KNOW reads Muse. So it would be a big thing for me to meet another person who reads Muse! I’m thinking of setting up a kokon.
Very odd…a lot of the threads that were lasted posted on on November 10th were revived today. *is spooked*
Help! *runs from bunnies*
AHHHH!!! *runs* BUNNIES!
I just reread A Surfeit of Coneys, and at the risk of sounding totally ignorant, who is this Queen of Muses?
I am too paranoid to go to a Kokonvention.
That video… Is the most awe-inspiring yet terrifying thing I have ever had the honor to lay eyes on.
well i came here thinking this might be fun, but youre all insanely queer. i mean really its a movie!?!?!?!?!?
dorks
Cat’s Meow and IBCF – it is very easy for you to get to Spokane, yes?
(276) Why, yes, we are. So glad you noticed.
i wish i could do a kokonvention. i’m in oregon. *sniff*
277- Yes. Very.
279- We’re having our next Kokon in Oregon.
The video is a little freaky and just as I was watching it I was also putting my Beatles CD into iTunes the first track happened to be “Love me do” the same song playing in the backround in the video, weird! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
281- what video? Which cd is it? I’m guessing the beatles number 1s???? Because that’s probably the only cd with Love Me Do as the first song……
282 – Either that or the first cd of the red album set.
Could we have a gravity appreciation day?
284- Excellent idea.
Hey guys! Finally back from my grandmother’s (She has no computer)
Does anybody remember those commercials from a few years back for some Pokemon game with the tagline “Save The Pokemon!”? They showed people protesting with signs that said that, and dropping a banner from a courthouse. The Olympic protests in San Fransisco reminded me of those commercials.
(273) The Q. of the M. was Muse‘s editor, Diana Lutz. The new editor, Romana Prokopiw, seems to be less of a bunny fan. I haven’t seen any reference to HPBs outside the “Muse Mail” page since January 2007.
285-Huzzah! Glad to see I’m not the only one who thinks that gravity merits a holiday in its honor!
286-Why hello! ‘Fraid I never saw the commercial…
OMG! I narrowly escaped being bunnified today! It’s my birthday, so my friends told me to come to our normal meeting place at lunch. They told me to close my eyes. I did………….and opened them to find hot pink bunny ears on my head!
And my cell phone case has a hot pink bunny on it(a birthday gift).
289- Keep a close eye on the cell phone and do not talk on it for longer than ten minutes. Also, our experts recommend intimidation tactics, such as setting the phone screen background to a picture of rabbit stew.
289- also, DO NOT LET IT TOUCH YOUR EAR!!!!
Gravity appreciation day would be positively smashing.
279- Um… Let’s see. Maybe we can arrange something… How close are you to Portland? I’m not sure if this would work, but if you could get to Portland this summer while IBCF and Meow were here, we might be able to convince one of the numerous adults to take us to Portland to meet you! Mind you, it’s all speculation. We’d have to see what the numerous adults think, and what Meow and IBCF think, but they’re probably in favor, no?
289-Chilling! *shudders* (Happy Birthday, by the way)
Would you people say that azure and lure rhyme?
*prays that someone will save her from the indignity of triple posting*
I sort of want to change my name to Lady Libretta, for no particular reason other than the fact that being named after a real person annoys me. However, that might be borderline on cruel to the GAPA’s. I’m in a dilemna. I hate problem-solving. Help! Maybe, I’ll just keep it…or maybe I’ll be my typical indecisive self and just postpone the decision!
That was the scariest video I have ever seen. *Runs and hides under bed*
Wow, I am on the point of quadruple posting. Not a good idea, I think, unless I want my entire life supply of choklit taken away. I know, I won’t post this until hour:35 (I don’t want to give away my time zone and give hints to my location due to my excessive internet paranoia) and that way I can avoid the awful bloggerly sin of quadruple posting…
1. I thought of something for the May random thread, unless the great all-seeing GAPA’s already have an idea: May flowers/efflorescence would be the thread’s name and the flower could be several hpb’s each turned different directions, so that their leaves created petals. I don’t know, when I type it, it sounds silly…ah well, I don’t really want to delete it either.
2. I am now engaged in making an unbelievably feeble attempt to write a sonnet about flight, and I am struggling with a line which keeps turning out 9 syllables instead of 10. Grr! (end of rant, I promise).
3. Finally, I have no idea what I want my third point to be, however, it seemed more well-rounded to include one…Maybe I’ll think of more points by hour:35 and thereby succeed in making this post a little better qaulity than the state of utter patheticism that deserves to be launched into the cyber void, at which it is presently.
4. I like cauliflower.
Yay, I finally figured out the line in my sonnet thats been tormenting me. And, in the process, I succeeded in discovering a great human truth, thesauri are utterly and entirely useless.
ebeth has a paper on a serial killer due friday (she’s doing ed kemper). ebeth is doing it now. why is ebeth doing this? that’s a good question…
today: ebeth had pit until 5:30 but beyond that she had time and not a lot of hw. finished chem in torch and hasn’t done math for about three months.
tomorrow: ebeth has JSA until 4:30 and then she is studying chem and gov (she has to know court cases for a quiz wednesday and chem for a test thursday)
wednesday: ebeth has jazz band, again until 4:30, and then she has to study more for chem, learn what gov she can (AP test monday!!!!!), and go take pictures of pete hamill talking at the high school
thursday: ebeth has a gigantic monster-sized pit rehearsal, she’s not sure how long but they’re ordering pizza so past dinner. then ebeth has to (as always this week) learn gov, and do whatever homework she has to do (such as finishing this essay that she probably won’t get done tonight)
friday: LEARN GOV, pretend to study for SAT (mater will probably make her), sleep, and do whatever other hw for monday since…
saturday: taking the SAT in the morning and then prom that night. going to an after party which could go as late as 4 AM (but will probably be a bit earlier in her case)
sunday: REALLY FREAKING LEARN GOV and SLEEP
monday: AP GOV TEST FIRST THING MONDAY MORNING AAAAH
tuesday: *collapse and death*
276) :’C TEARZ
297) Sonnets are nice when they succeed, which is hardly ever. hats of to will.
Now that the play’s done, I expect to be getting on much more frequently.
But not today.
276-What movie?
301-Yay!
I am not motivated to do anything. Yay. Bleh. Other bland expressions.
Are any MBers in the North East?
I’m in Mass.
299- ebeth cannot bring herself (you are a girl, right? correct me if i’m wrong) to write in first person.
303- i’m in new york.
Can we please have a new HG2MB thread?
The last one is from 2006, and it’s dead!
i apologize sincerely for the double post, but alas! i forgot to write what i was meaning to write in the first place in my previous post.
i saw harold and maude last night! i just thought i’d let you all know, because it is now tied with moulin rouge as my favorite movie. i cried at the end! BLAARGH IT’S SUCH A GOOD MOVIE!!
306- Yes, it is. I cried too.
I’m in the Northeast, NY.
299 -I take SAT that day too!!!1!!!! A coincidence- the same day! What fun! I’ll be thinking of you!!! It’ll be so special!
Blehrg. I hope the sarcasm came through. Vendaval will be thinking of you though. Yes. Vendy will laugh at ebeth far off in Ohio while Vendy takes the SAT too. Pain.
O crap, I can’t believe it’s so soon.
277 – Quite easy. Why?
279 – You know that the current West Coast Summer Kokon is going to be in Oregon, right?
292 – The more Musers the merrier. I’m in favor.
RAWR. I HAVE TO GET OFF THE COMPUTER IN 7 MINUTES AND I HAVEN’T EVEN STARTED MY HOMEWORK THAT’S DUE TOMORROW.
I am so dead, it’s not even funny.
The Pheonix lander touches down on Mars on May 25th!
AH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Video has changed!
308- Due to the fact that there is a 90 percent chance that in November I shall be entering the Spokane area. Permenently(sp?)
309- Can we get that on the calendar? Oh, and Space Shuttle Discovery takes off on May 31st. It’s going to be a spacey summer.
I just saw the video. Eep, scary!
Blahhhahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Bleh!
I want it to be summer break.
I believe that there are only 28 days left in school, if I’m counting correctly.
28 days of doom!
Awww my sister has a boyfrienddddd!
Video! *watches* Creepy..
I think…about 34 days left of school for me. I’m not sure..
My awesome purple hoodie of doom has come! *bows before hoodie*
313- xD 28 days later… “WHOOHOO! Oh wait, I’ve turned into a rampaging bloodmonster.”
What a coinkydink, I’m listening to AM 180 by the Grandaddys right now. It was on the 28 Days Later soundtrack. WEIRD…
287- GASP! I shall email her right now.
nurrr I have too much homework
Experiental Educations SUCKS. Anyone else have it?
I’ve always wanted to stilt walk. I can walk on the mail order catalog sort of stilts but one can’t /dance/ on them. I want the kind that are attached to your feet.
27 more days, I think!
I see bugs bunny…the march hare…roger rabbit…brer rabbit…is that the were rabbit? And several others I can’t identify. *shudders*
Hi everyone, I’m back, yet again!!
I had a great time this weekend as well, I was at a local historical event and it was wonderful. I got to play music with some of my friends, and, yes, some of us read through the Beggar’s Opera.
I got a beautiful new jacket, I might send in a picture if anypne wants to see my 18th century clothing…..or if I just feel like I want to brag and be insufferable!!
I don’t know how long it wil be untill I’m on here again, because we sitll have no phone connection, and next weekend I’ll be in WV riding trains.
So, how have you all been? I’m sorry that I haven;t been reading posts, but I have a bazzillion emails to read and send, and I’m at the library (again).
Pies and love to you all, I’ve missed you!!!
Hey…I just noticed the mention of a mystery RRR on the blog calendar, which excites me!
I feel like I am not involved in enough threads. There’s simply not enough to check when I come on.
I accidentally missed Poem in your Pocket day this year. I was really depressed. Anyway, my wonderful friend decided to cure me of my pathetic depression by suggesting that we hold an impromptu pop day on May 1. And now I am happy…
I have a lot more to say and not much time. Mayhaps, I’ll be back later, but for now, what can I say but “Toodloo”!
is that thumper?? I thought he was a good bunny! oh well, when the’re pink, they’re bad…
I can;t see the picture….Is it just me?
(322) It’s a video. You may have to wait a minute for it to load.
(318, 321) No Brer Rabbit, but the others you mentioned are there. Ten in all.
I’m not sure but I believe this is the first time we’ve captured audio of HPBs.
323~ But, I’m at the library!! hese sort of things load really fast, all it’s doing is flickering and looking rather sick.
(324) Here’s a direct link. See if that will work better.
http://s171.photobucket.com/albums/u291/rglasley/museblog06/?action=view¤t=Eggmorph.flv
323- Drat, Thumper looks a lot like Brer Rabbit. Or is that one on the bottom right Thumper? *confused*
New obsession: Chris Crocker and B Scott.
Type in “B Scott killer squirrel” into YouKnowWhatVideoWebsite.
Except spell squirrel right, I probably didn’t.
That maniacle laughter rocks!
310 – Really? Awesome!
-starts
plottingplanning Kokons-I recognize Peter Rabbit, Bugs Bunny, Thumper….
323- well, Purple panda and Tiwain Hippo Fan did get squecks.
There is a 100% chance I will be going to Baltimore the third week of June.
I JUST noticed the Were-Rabbit.
Go Wallace and Gromit!!!
72- I’ve been thinking and I bet treble_cone_freeskier!’s disappearance has something to do with this post on the first Hare-athon Thread:
9. treble_cone_freeskier! who is a day ahead of everyone, so HA! | March 1st, 2008 at 1:52 am
I have to say the blog was alot better in 2006. I think we should stop letting new people post, and return the blog to its old glory, OR we should make threads that only people who were here by summer 2006 can go on. This way, those threads can be the wackyness that they used to be, even though we will be missing some people, who made the blog special
What does everyone else think?! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
310- Aw.
I’d hoped you were coming over here. 
Dang it. *has got to get to Spokane* I have it! Meow and IBCF will take me back with them! You two don’t mind, do you?
Aw. *is sad*
Huh? What does that prove?
Also, somehow I can’t believe Treble would say that.
334 – I would mind.
Except for the fact that we’d have about 5 months inbetween the Summer Kokon and the time when Cinnamoon would arrive in Spokane.
OH, OOPS!
I just said “I would mind” instead of “I wouldn’t mind” in that last post. TOTAL TYPO. Sorry Alice.
OH MY GOD those rabbits are terrifying!
I am going to splatterpaint my room before we knock out the walls!
Last night was great! I found the Little Dipper, Cassiopeia, Bootes, Virgo, Leo and Vega in Lyra on the horizon! Spring constellations are just as much fun as winter ones!
334- Tis possible, but unlikely. But I have grandparents in Oregon. Ko konvention will happen!
Today, my friend and I invented a new word. The story behind it (in the very unlikely case that anyone cares to hear it) is as follows. I was explaining to my friend how such and such person was a figment of so-and-so’s imagination. My enunciation being somewhat defective, it came out as befignent. We were so thrilled by befignant that we immediately accepted it as an integral part of our everday vocabulary’s and having been using it ever since. Tada!
AHH NEW VIDEO SCARY EVIL SHUN SHUN SHUN!
Me and Clarissa are going out. People already know like EVERYTHING. Even the seventh grade dean knows who I’m dating. That’s crazy.
Has anyone else noticed the “Dates to Remember” thing? What kind of mystery RRR could the GAPAs be planning? The May Day Ball? Hmmmmm…..
343- no, I just suggested it, and asked for it after Script Frenzy.
So, remember that paper for psych? (see 299) That we all thought was about 3-4 pages? It’s actually like 8. ebeth is determined to finish off two pages (for today, so total 3) before taking pics, and at least half (hopefully more like a page) afterwards. and then she’ll be up very very late thursday (chem test too! and she doesn’t understand it! aaah)
>.<
342-Sounds good
…I know what you mean about everybody knowing things. My social life is very disinterested, but, I’ve still had cause to notice that most grades have about 500 “english channels of gossip.” Still, I like my school a lot. This would probably be suited on another thread, but that’s just too bad. 
Today is the last day of working for the school year! Tomorrow we go on our trip to Disney World, then we have Friday off, exams are next week, and we graduate on the 13th!
I’m happy!
First of all: I can’t believe I’m 6K days old! It seems like such a long time…
Second of all, Mom is doing really well! She hasn’t been doing much but reading, watching TV, and sleeping, but that’s about all you are up to doing when you have just had 60% of your liver removed.
Third: Good luck to all Screnzy-finishers! I wish you happy writing these last few hours.
Fourth: Rebecca, I do hope you’re okay. Getting that close to HPBs is dangerous, and I think you would be especially susceptible to bunnification because of your previous experience with the topic. (See: bunny hat). However, you appear to be doing fine, but I wish you the best of luck in the future.
Fifth: Cat’s Meow — my deepest sympathies on your dress-wearing-dilemma. I don’t like dresses, though I often wear skirts (ankle-length, with jeans underneath, but still…). Whenever I need to be fancy-looking, I have a few suits which I wear. But dresses are dreadful. *sends luck*
Sixth: I’m sorry I haven’t been on much lately. I can assure you, I have visited every single day, I just don’t always post something. The weather has finally gotten warm enough to be outside for extended periods of time, and I have been spending almost all of my free time outside, and not inside on the computer. I’ve also had a lot of schoolwork, because it’s nearing the end of the year and I’ve been studying like mad for my Spanish final. I’m also studying ahead for next year, where I’m taking all AP classes and doing my graduation project. Fun!
Anyway, I’ll try to be on as much as I can, I just don’t always have a ton of time to catch up on the posts I missed. *tries to do better*
Hypatia would like to inform anyone who cares to listen that she just added the final couplet to her sonnet, and it is probably the only part of the poem, which does not deserve to be shredded into thousands of tiny pieces, stabbed with red hot irons, and launched into the void. Furthermore, Hypatia would like to make it known that, after having done this, Hypatia did two excessively amusing math problems. Hypatia thanks her audience for their time and from refraining from throwing tomatoes at her due to her excessively riling use of the third person.
341-I like that word.
I want to wander.
I think if I had to describe myself right now I would use the word yearning.
Apothem is a very ugly word.
PP, I’m glad your mother is doing well! *sends good wishes and fresh baked cookies*
350 – Really? I like the word apothem.
130 – I know this is a bit late, but there are some summer camps that are for older students that as sleepaway camps and offered to anyone throughout the country.
350-Why thank you *blushes*
348- *waves for no real reason, but for the fact that she feels that she should respond to such a nice long post*
Hypatia is presently engaged in doing some very grueling homework, which bothers her. Hypatia also detests her sonnet, which bothers her (if this is possible) even more.
348-PP! glad your mom’s feeling better. sincere sympathies on the schoolwork, i swear it’s always so much more intense at the end of the year. you’d think it would be the other way around, but i guess teachers procrastinate on teaching too.
i just took pictures of pete hamill talking at the high school. it was fun, all the volunteers got our shirts signed by him and had far too much ice cream (they brought in the johnson’s freezer…yum). nolan came up with a huge stack of books from the library for him to sign and the BEF lady was like “um…maybe you should just have him sign a few of those”
348 – That’s good, about your mom! I hope she gets even better.
Speaking of illnesses and getting better and stuff…one of the girls on my soccer team was at a soccer game across the state, playing with another team, which she’s going to play with this year. They’re sort of our sister team, except they’re at a slightly higher level then us, but we share players all the time and stuff. ANYWAYS. About 2 minutes into their first game this girl was playing forward, was going for the goal, and was apparently the target of a particularly hard tackle. (For those of you who don’t play soccer, a tackle isn’t like a football tackle. It’s where you take the ball from someone, or at least try to.) As my team was starting our game, the next day, she was going into surgery with a broken ankle. Ouch. Now she has a plate and 9 screws in her ankle and won’t be able to play soccer until the fall. Which really, really, really stinks, because she’s one of our leading scorers. And it just stinks in general, for her, because she has 9 screws in her ankle.
Any chance we could get the RRR tonight?
A mystery RRR?
Today was sucky. I always have a bad day on Wednesdays.
Ah well, at least I have a better schedule tomorrow!
*falls over* Why must I have so many mood swings?
But I won’t go into that.
We played a very confusing game in Acting. I subsequently melted.
I don’t want to do my homework.
It is bedtime. Therefore I can’t concentrate.
Tomorrow is May Day. There is no May Day dance but the one on MuseBlog. Sob.
Glad your mom’s getting better, Pan.
Why is it only Wednesday? It ought to be Thursday at least.
I don’t want to go to school.
I want to read the scripts of my fellow MBers. Send ’em in, guys, quick!
I want to tear my own script up into little pieces and scatter it to the four winds, then sit down and worldbuild intensively, and then rewrite the entire story.
Do you ever feel that everything is just getting in the way? I mean physically, like there are just to many chairs and your hair is always in your eyes and you feel like you just got the disadvantages of another arm or two without the benefits of increased dexterity?
