Aha! So the Muses will be attending the ball as well?
Why would Urania let Koko hem her dress?
(2) I believe Mimi is hemming — or trying to — and Koko is unhemming. Urania may be there awhile.
3- Oh, I see now. Why would Urania let Koko near her dress?
(4) I suspect his presence was not her idea — any more than it was mine, for that matter. Koko just has a way of
barging into thingsshowing up when you least expect him.At least Koko is throwing them off into a
bowlpie tin so nobody steps on them!A spectre is haunting Europe — the spectre….
Happy May!
We have no school today, because it’s May Day.
Here, though May Day is a celebration of the Labour Unions, the workers, Marx, etc.
8- Wow. Can I go to your school?
I guess here we have Labor Day, but that’s in the summer.
I wish May Day were Labor Day in the US, but of course that’s the way the ebil commies do it, and we can’t have that, can we? I don’t have school today anyway, but I would really like to have my birthday off every year.
Happy May, everyone!!
I’m just stopping by for a minute of two, and then I’m off to West Virginia to ride trains….fun.
Today a bird hit the window of my room (very hard) but is okay! I’m so glad. It was a thrush, and it hopped off, so I guess it’s out there flying by now. I just hope Circles doesn’t find it, but then, I haven’t seen him all morning so the bird should be all right.
I’ve lost control! Mayday! Mayday! *blows up*
8- *wishes he were at Vixen’s school* *jealous*
(6) This is Kokopelli we’re talking about, remember; somehow I doubt his primary motive is being considerate.
Bank holiday on Monday! Whee!
13 – Yeah, he’s probably planning on making a pin pie.
I’m signing off for now, I’ll be back in a few days, I’m not sure when, but sometime.
Peace, pies and :idea:s too all!!! =[|} =[|} =[|} =[|} =[|}
(16) Have fun!
wahoo!! may! cheers everyone!
16- See you, MF! =[|} =[|} =[|} *pies*
Hey guys! There’s certainly a lot of mayhem going on around here. Prom on Saturday! No hot date, because I don’t fancy anyone at K******. How’s everyone?
20- we have prom on …tomorrow and I’m going alone too.
I adore the picture at the top!!!! It’s my desktop background, for now…
wouldn’t mentioning K******* in post 20 need to be snipped?
[So it does. Maybe we should retire and let some sharper-eyed GAPAs take over. *sighs* –Admin.]
Wait… I just got somethign… is it an intended pun that Mimi is hemming Urania’s dress? Like, May-HEM?
That’s right.
We have off tomorrow too. Some christian holiday. *rolls eyes* My goodness, what other freaky country in the world celebrates ‘Godspeed Day?’ Bank holiday and everything.
14 days until I go to Egypt!
all right, I’d better turn in, so I wish you a good evening and the remainder of May Day. Please refrain from sacrficing anyone in a giant flaming wicker bascket shaped like a person! *Loves ‘The Wicker Man.’* It’s a great movie if you want nightmares.
I don’t liek nightmarez! One time I had this nightmare actually 3 times in my life where there iz a giant warehouse and killer motorbikers and strange little dustballs next 2 a dusty fence and i get scared. Wake up goin wy studnts hav 2 throw flower pots out window! This dream happened when I was 2, 9, and 12. P.S. This is relevant because this is the month of my birthday and it has to do with how older i’m gettin cause i just got tha same nightmare, except it was in france and now im not scared of it.
Turnin older in 12 days!
Yay!
Sorry for the interruption of semi randomness!

I absolutely adore the picture. There was something magical about coming on the blog this morning and seeing all the new threads and the happy picture. I love the first of the month!
I want to make a desperate appeal to all ye readers of this post. Don’t forget SMASS-TT!
I would be hapy it’s May except that May = AP Tests (3 of ’em) so that’s not so great.
But I do love the summerish weather we’re having. Except for the Santa Anas picking up again…*sigh* California weather…
My favorite color is now undulating between vermillion, fuschia, and hot pink.
Today, I got to go to a women in science event at the Adler Planetarium and it was awesome. I got to meet Barbara Morgan (an astronaut), and we did all this cool stuff about space.
Hallo! I’m feeling kinda cheery today.
Y’know the song Love Song? It reminds me of Aladdin, and then I get all sad again, but in a happy sort of sad way. Mom insists I’m to young to reminice, but what does she know?
New words: Ethiopian, trollop, and aboominum. Got ’em all from B. Scott, thank you very much.
My seventh grade dean know s who I’m dating. That’s disturbing. She’s gonna come to my house and eat my babies or something.
10) actually itz ~*~*~*~*Loyalty~*~*~*~* Day u commie omg gtfo :c
31) LOLLL FUNNY YOU MENTION AP TESTS
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
also Santa Anas ew do not want. I’m fine with it being hot but hot and dry is no.
33- Awesome!
8-er……….what state/country do you live in?
37- Somewhere in Europe.
33- ooh, nifty! planetariums are awesome! I was on vacation in national parks over spring break and I looked at a lot of stars. I ♥ Orion especially.
38- Denmark?
40- Yup, VITEOM is Danish.
Happy May Day! Nice pic. Poor Mimi. If she doesn’t see Koko, she’ll think Urania’s dress is cursed! At least, I would. Mimi is probably smarter than me.
Hi. We saw Nim’s Island. It was…OK. Not good. Not bad. Often cheesy. *thinks* It was interesting, seeing as I recently wrote a great deal about writer-character interactions, but I would have liked more of that and less of…something else. Dunno what.
One of my friends isnt exactly a muser, but reads muse in my school library. Should she go on the blog?
38, 40, 41-It’s possible to get muse there?!?!?!?!
45- Yes, of course! Why wouldn’t it?
44- Why not?
39-I love Orion, too! You can just see the edge of it on the horizon after dark now. But the spring constellations are nice, too.
Hello everybody! I’m back! Are there any threads that I absolutely need to read?
Any month on MuseBlog is guaranteed to have lots of May-hem!
urgh, ebeth is sick
except i had a chem test today, and making up chem tests is WAY more trouble than it’s worth, so i went in for the first 2 periods (chem is 2nd) and then left. it was funny, because i went down to the office to sign out and jake was there signing out too (he’s a kid in my chem class). he must’ve come in just for the test too.
but then i remembered i had to buy a prom ticket, because they don’t sell them at the door (which is dumb but whatever) so i went back at lunch.
kind of funny, everybody in our group is kind of like “meh, prom but rocky horror’s gonna be awesome!” (that’s our after-party. the official school one is at a fitness center, which is so lame. it’s usually gameworks but i guess we couldn’t get it this year)
also taking the SAT tomorrow morning. should be fun, like being smashed repeatedly on the head by a giant hammer and then falling off a cliff and being impaled by pointy rocks. how i love standardized testing.
I hate those tests!
i hate tests in general.
Heloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Everyone!
I am back after a long string of assignments that will probubly icnrease again starting next week…….. 
*sigh*
I ♥ standardized tests. Especially when they’re not necessary, for example I’m taking the SAT tomorrow too, but I’m only a sophomore. I’ve heard that’s unusual though.
55- I know! They eat up so much time.
Welcome back, La Mort! We missed you!
I took the SAT in 8th grade. It was … painful. I did good on it, too.
I’ve gone to exactly two dances in my whole life. Loud noises and people I don’t know in close proximity scare me. *twitch* Though a couple friends might drag me to something eventually. *sigh*
I have been taking the SAT since last year (7th grade). I got 500+ on both tests.
This year I got 670 on the math, and 630 on the reading… 1500 total.
I also got 27 on the SAT.
Urgh. They’re spending school money buying Nutri-Grain bars for the SOL tests.
So we don’t get hungry while trying to get into college or something.
Whoops. I meant ACT. I got 27 on the ACT.
58-you did well? even on the grammar?
i am officially losing my voice now. i must regain it so i can shout to people over the loud, obnoxious c-rap and dumb hip-hop that they are sure to play at deafening decibels.
but i can still alliterate, so i’m obviously not dead yet.
34-Eep! Protect your babies!
Bagels are yummy. Yum yum bagels.
The new issue of Muse is good.
Re Standardized testing: Ewwww. I hate those.
63- Yes, bagels are yummy. Especially with cream cheese. Mmm… *licks lips*
I am going to be GONE this weekend! So I shall not be on here much. Or at all, really. See you on Sunday!
55- I’m almost positive that was sarcasm, but I have a little confession to make.
I really do love tests.
*cringes*
I’ve never taken the SAT or ACT (though I’m going to take Pre-SAT next year), so I’m not sure what a “standardized test” is, but as a rule, I find tests really fun.
66- Actually, I was being serious. I guess it did seem sarcastic, but that was all true. It’s so hard to get those tone things right when typing. I’ve found I can almost meditate during tests, and if you take them early, then you’re already ahead of other people who just complain about the tests, and then complain they don’t do well.
58- Superman does good. You did well.
Howdy there MBers.
I ate too much soup. My mouth hurts.
HAPPEH TEH BIRTHDAY TEH PENTY! I’m too lazy to go on the brithday thread, plus I’m late.
I’m writing a superhero story. xD Still Snow, an underground organization in New York City. Main character Whisper, protector against magic, a.k.a Cassandra Robinson. YAYAYY.
Cat’s Meow just realized that she hasn’t posted on this thread at all yet.
She doesn’t really have anything interesting to say, except that candy is yummy.
She also thinks there should be another Talk In Third Person Day, like the one she has heard so much about.
I found a picture of Speller yesterday.
This music is really weird. It keeps switching from one speaker to another, and it feels like I can sort of see it. *Ow* Now it’s better.
Oh that’s why I came on here. GAPAs, did you manage to open my script?
TGYPWYA wants to know why Cat’s Meow is talking in third person, because as far as he knows, it isn’t Talk in Third Person Day, and he finds it to be slightly annoying. Or at least, hard to follow.
Oliphants ate my slippers, and now my feet are angry at me.
58, 59-You’ve taken the SAT in 7th and 8th grade? Don’t you mean the SSAT?
(70) Alice — yes, we have your script.
47-oh, goody!
72 – No. I took the real SAT as practice. It actually helps.
Oh, CAKE! Oh, skrelching wung buttons! @#$%!!!
So, anyone remember how I told you about the landlady who comes and stays in our house for a long time? Well, she’s coming. On Tuesday.
And the house is a disaster.
And I strongly dislike her. She is already my least favorite that I know, and I don’t even know her. I really want to do as the E. Nesbit did, and get rid of her through various ingenious plots, but the trouble is, I’ve always resembled the older and more sensible Nesbit children, and therefore think about the consequences before I actually implement any plots.
My brothers are going to see Iron Man today. It’s like Bill Gates as a superhero.
76- ‘Skrelching wung buttons?’
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
78- “Skrelch” is a swear-word from the world of Etheterre in RRR 2006.6, and “wung buttons” is a mild epithet which has many othe, less offensive meanings depending on context.
71 – Cat’s Meow apologizes, for she did not realize that some people disliked third person.
70, 73 – Oh, that reminds me. I’ll send my script in soon.
i took the SATS in 7th grade and my scores were good enought o get me into any college pretty much.
the were so freakin easy
We have to write an opening scene for English. I was going to use the first scene of my Screnzy, but then to my combined horror and delight, I found out that it had to be in Shakesperean English. As of right now, my ideas are semi-dysfunctional. Hopefully a Muse will visit me soon!
82- Why don’t we do anything like that in OUR English class?
83- Teehee. *gloats* The problem is, we never have long enough to do it properly…
Woohoo! I just won my black belt! *dances*
85-Thats awesome, congratulations! *keeps a safe distance from IBCF*
85- *pies* *hides incase of problems*
85- Congrats!
Kyah!!! *knife-hands board in half*
85 – *pies and hides* Congrats!
89 – *runs away*
86, 87, 88, 90- Thanks, all! *uses fast reflexes to catch pies* *eats*
Awesome IBCF! I’ve got a black belt too, except I’ve never taken karate. Or judo. Or any of those courses. It’s just a plain, black, belt, purchased at Wal-Mart. (Oh well, I can say I have a black belt and I’m not lying!) All the karate I know is “Wax on, wax off…”
I would send some pies your way, but I’m afraid you’d kung-fu them back at me.
Ah, what the heck? *pies*
70 – You did (find a picture of me)? Actually, it probably isn’t that hard.
92- I do Tae Kwon Do, actually. There’s big differences between Tae Kwon Do, Karate, and Kung-fu. *grabs pie*
I was playing Free Rice and I found this word:
hemidemisemiquaver
Isn’t that a wonderful word?
Robert — My aunt and uncle are visiting from Croatia (they’re in the foreign service), and they said that they didn’t think they knew you in person, but they recognize you.
Has anyone noticed that some of the letters that are falling into the FMP have screaming faces? Also did anyone notice the letters in red in the articles? The phrases include “redredred” and “write to us about red.” ( I actually thought it would be “write to us in red”)
94-Ooh! I do taekwondo too!! Do you go to the ATA?
I have a 2nd degree Black Belt. Our ranks go white, orange, yellow, camo, green, purple, blue, brown 1, brown 2, red 1, red 2, black reccomended (1/2 red, 1/2 black), and then 9 levels of black. Whatever number black belt you’re on is the minimum number of years at that belt. The colors are just a few months each, and there’s a big story about a tree growing that the belts are for.
I couldn’t be bothered to do a Screnzy. I had SO MUCH going on you wouldn’t believe. Plus I don’t like writing plays.
Currently reading: “The Houses of TIme” by Jamil Nasir. Really good; kind of like an easier to comprehend Slaughterhouse-5.
97- *sticks fingers in ears* LALALALALALALALALALALAAA!!!! I can’t heeearrrr youuuu…
Purple Panda,
Ah, the legend lives on. Yes, I was in the Foreign Service for a little while.
85 – Congratulations!
100 – You haven’t gotten your Muse yet?
Robert — They wanted to know how the Kokonvention went (we told them about it last summer), so we showed them pictures and they said they recognized you from somewhere.
Alice — That’s a fantastic word! Isn’t it some type of musical note or something? It’s fun to say!
102- I forgot to tell my dad to renew.
103- It’s the sixty-fourth note, according to Free Rice, which is sometimes less than accurate.
103 – It is indeed a musical note. We use them over here. Not often, because they’re very fast. It’s what you call a – er –
*counts manically on fingers*
64th note. I think. I can’t cope with American notaion. Too logical.
I love my project. I just love it. Which is strange, considering up until about half an hour ago I hated it.
I was…really upset. Really, really upset. Among other things, my soccer team just lost two close games in a row, our leading scorer is out for the rest of the season and will be on a different team after that, one of my best friends and I just had a fight, and my brother is being an idiot. Other than that, almost everything is fine.
Since I obviously couldn’t talk to my friend…since he and I are fighting…and MuseBlog moderation was slow, I decided to work on my project. Well, the first part of the project, the part I’m working on right now, involves finding inspirational quotes about leadership.
There is no better way to feel a little bit happier when you’re upset then reading 80 inspiration quotes about leadership.
Hmm… I just realized how extreme my lack of a social life is.
I’ve only planned to meet friends outside of school 4 times this whole school year, and those were with 3 different friends.
I think the average person at my high school spends at least 1/2 of their weekends with friends.
Maybe I should get out more?
I want to know what sick person created a relay with a mile between the hand-offs.
And who had the bright idea of making us run this at an invitational in 20 degree weather!
Must have been Mr. Joe.
At least we won the bronze medal.
98- No, I’m in the WTF.
I’m only a 1st degree black belt. The belt ranks go like this: white, yellow, orange, green, blue, high blue, purple, high purple, red, high red, brown, high brown, red-black, bo dan, 1st degree black, 2nd degree black, 3rd degree black, and so on.
Hypatia’s Elizabethan English Questions:
Will someone please help me by confirming the following statements?
Thou is informal
You is formal
A “T” is added at the end of verbs when thou is the subject?
Thanks dreadfully.
95 – Ooh, that was a spelling word. And it was the word of the day at some point during Bee Week last year. *searches* Ah, here we go. May 29:
a musical note with the time value of 1/64 of a whole note : sixty-fourth note
It adds:
Hemidemisemiquavers are the fastest musical notes that are commonly played, and performing them well can stretch human technique to its limit. The term is mainly used in Britain, where eighth notes are called “quavers,” sixteenth notes are called “semiquavers,” and thirty-second notes are called “demisemiquavers.” In the United States, “hemidemisemiquaver” is likely to be used humorously, occurring especially as a clever substitute for “moment” or “bit,” as in “the concert ended not a hemidemisemiquaver too soon.”
108-Nice. What do you run?
I have qualifiers for a final thingy on Wednesday and I am running in an 800, a 1600, a 4×4, and probably the long jump. I hope to survive.
107 – I’m there as well, so at least it’s not just you. =/
110 – Read post 306 here: https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=1260
The 1500. My best time is 7:28, but I didn’t even approach that with the cold weather.
So, we both run track, and we both like Cosmos.
Do you like purple?
107- I haven’t arranged ANY meetings with my friends. Well, the kokon. But nothing else.
Summer is going to be intolerable. I don’t like any of my friends.
110- I can confirm the first two, but I dunno about the last.
115- Cosmos? That was a pretty good show.
114-Thanks! I ended up finding the conjugations on Wikipedia too…
115- Crazzzzzzy! *cheers discreetly for Cosmos and track*. Unfortunately, I’m no too-large fan of purple. I prefer vermillion and fuschia. Well, I like hot pink (not bunnies, mind you, the color) better than fuschia, but they’re so similair and fuschia is so much more beautiful of a word that I always “stretch the truth” in order to have the opportunity to enunciate it. Let’s see…I’d ask you approximately what region of the globe you inhabited, but then I’d have to disclose information about my own whereabouts and that would be…*trails off* *shudders* Ah well. I’ll ask anyway. What region of the globe do you inhabit. I live in the Northeast of the United States of America.
Sorry to double post, but I made fleeting reference to something in my previous comment. I had intended to expand on it, but forgot. *prepares to hand over choklit* So, I went on Wikipedia utterly desperate for some sort of lucid and comprehensive explanation of Shakespearean English, searched thou, and came up with something which my brain (feeling feeble today) was capable of grasping. And I think that from now on, I will be posting on this thread exclusively in Shakesperean English for two reasons: it will prevent me from posting compulsively, and its good practice. Thank you for your time.
I can’t wait for summer so I can have entire days to wander and not worry about the weather or homework. Unfortunately I will have to worry about Taekwondo, music lessons, driving school, babysitting, and whatever my mom tells me to clean, but at least school and cold weather will be gone right?
I wish I could be an immature little brat sometimes just so I could do what I want and not mind what I was supposed to do. Curse my conformity to sensible rules.
Gah! I haven’t been on again and you people post so many things and I just can’t keep up and…
Anyway.
So I went to Karla’s house today and her and Vildana and Shelby and Katie and Tyler were there so we were all hanging out and talking and it was awesome. We were deep, and then not, and then we were deep again! It was hilarious. And I did the B. Scott impersonations and they all cracked up, and we had so much fun and we’re going to do it all again tomarrow.
119-I know just what you mean like that. Rules and obligations are the bane of my existence, but for some bizarre reason, I can’t help but continue existing in my state of subjugation to their regime.
Alas! I am lame. I fear I have failed most miserably in the task I set before myself. Not one post in, I have reverted to modern English. Alack the day!
I delurk myself.
How goes the blog? I have not been here for many a month. I sympathize with post Alice 116. About not liking one’s friends. I’m in a better situation now, but I’ve definitely been there. Ah.
Yeeep. AP European history test this friday. It’s freakish how much review I have to do.
I got my license a few months ago. It was exciting.
(119. Karinnn Tayyy) Indeed. Don’t we all wish that sometimes?
I wish I could stop worrying about tests. It keeps me up at night so badly lately I can’t sleep at all so I’ve taken to getting up at 2 and going running.
It must not be the tests. It must be something else, because I never used to worry this much.
(123) Hi, Skipper! Nice to see you.
Hello kind Lady! I love the museblog. Coming here makes me feel so loved.
I feel sad that I haven’t stayed caught up on all the virtual adventures you folks have round here. Ah well. Tis life, eh?
And I haven’t read my last two issues of Muse yet either! LeGASP!
For shame, Skipper.
Well, I’ll do that now. right after I finish my
mathmathmathmathmathmathmath.
123) 8BBBBB MINE IS FRIDAY TOO
ULTIMATE DBQ FAILURE IS GO
I have some good mulitple choice review links that are education so perhaps the GAPAs would allow them?
Review one: www .angelfire .com/fl4/ap/reviewques.html,
Review two: www .historyteacher .net/EuroProjects/ExamReviewSheets/APEuroMainReviewPage.htm,

Two is the best if its not zapped (though feel free to do so)
Hmm the other day I saw something somewhere that said “Hypatia’s such and such” and I laffed. This is an interesting fact, yes.
My advice to everyone is to avoid fish. All your problems will be solved in due course if you follow this. Now I need to go pass out becasue I had my birthday party and ingested too much of everything, possibly including bubble solution. ta.
Oh, hi Skipper! It’s been a while, hasn’t it?
I just finished watching The Peacekeeper Wars. Three hours of pure, predictable, exhilarating Farscape. The end made very little sense and I ashamed to say I nearly cried until I realized that oh, never mind. Ha ha, nice joke. Um, what just happened?
I think I like the episodes better, honestly.
117- I also. Is your birthday in February?
66- I like tests too. We don’t have the SAT here – we have SATs, which are completely different. Mainly because the first one is sat (pun not intended) at the age of seven, the second at eleven, and the third at fourteen.
Hello Skipper! Good to see you around.
Gah. I cannot keep up with you guys. So many posts in one day.
Are there any Canadians on the blog who would like to help me with Model UN research?
yes! no homework!:mrgreen:
Hello, Skipper!
131 – Lucky.
126-the DBQs will be fine. i knew somebody who wrote about the wrong roosevelt and still got a 5. and they’re not that hard, just talk about what’s right there in front of you.
i have the AP gov test tomorrow. i’m not horribly worried. i should probably go over the court cases and stuff though. i’ve kind of decided i’m ok with a 4, mostly because i’m still dead from prom/rocky horror.
Just got back from helping out at the Special Olympics. The only Olympics I’m going to watch this year, so I figured I should enjoy them.
132-Luckyyyy! *is majorly jealous*
I love the warm spring weather!!! It’s ahhhmazing!
134- I’m lucky? Or were you talking to 132?
NO MORE MATH HOMEWORK FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s raining here. I think. Bleh.
It’s so warm! xD I went biking all around my town today. Home to tennis courts to friend’s house to lunch to crush’s house (:D) to home. I feel so in shape! Unlike my cat who lounges about all day and balks at going more than two feet away from the house.
Snakes are indubitably cool. Herpetology = <3
136- Political statement? I’m
not happyextremely angry with China, but I feel that to not watch would be to go against the Olympics, whom I do agree with.140- yes.
138 – Yeah, I meant 132.
I love the Olympics, but I don’t want to show support for genocide. Every previous Olympics, I’ve tried to catch something every day. But I’m growing up now, and I understand that there are more important things in the world than what I personally enjoy.
Hi peoples! The sage is back after having gotten herself grounded from the computer for a month.
No I actually wasn’t gone for script frenzy. Though on a really random note, I mentioned scriptfrenzy to My creative writing teacher, and she looked at the website, so now she gets all of her script-teaching material from there, which I find very amusing.
*wanders off*
Look, it moving up! the new webs are coming! cricketmagkids.com /cricket.html
145- It’s been like that for at least a month.
146-Will you come back to the Convention?
I am back! I have returned! Mwahaha.
I am depressed. I just found out that another of my friends is moving to Washington (state.) That is two in like two months! And before that, one of my friends moved to Oregon! Gah!
I need a hug.
135) DDDDDDDD: lol well then maybe I have a chance. I’m good at FRQs and the multiple choice so hopefully that makes up for it. afjkad. GOOD LUCK ON YOUR TEST.
Me and a bunch of friends hung out yesterday at Karla’s house, and had a bunch of fun, and the day before that, I went on a double date with Clarissa and her friend Samm and Samm’s boyfriend Matt, and today I went over to Clarissa’s house, and we hung out, listened to music, and went for a walk into the woods. This has been the best weekend of my life. Every day has been like a movie, and I feel really happy. I can’t even describe it. It’s something that I’ve never felt before, and never will again, as much as I want too. The past two months will be the ones I remember for the rest of my life.
145 – I’m planning to check it out if it ever gets out of the construction phase. I’m still quite a bit skeptical, though, especially if they try to make something like that for Muse…-shudders-
150 – Awesome.
(126 Axa) Thanks for the review links! Ha. It’s nice to know someone else is stressing this. I’m actually kind of pumped for the DBQ… I almost like those in and nail-biting sort of way. It’s the FRQ I’m freaked about.
sdk;jgvbadfsb;kjbdfDefenestration of Prague started the Thirty Years War. Edict of Restitution was in the final phase and it did something, but I’m not sure what yet. Stenka Razin was the guy who lead a Cossack revolt in Russia. GHAHFilhbvsdghfbv
And I can’t for the life of me….oh never mind.
(150) Coooool. That sounds nice.
thanks all who said hello to me!
Chuh. Tis hothot hot. And getting hotter. Hotness. Hotness and tests. Tests, hotness. Like the world is one big melty glob of trigonometry and French Revolution and organic chem. I will be so pleased when this is all over. And stupid band concert on wednesday. dumbdumbdumb.
Weee!
I’m going to be in China right before the Olympics. For band. Great. I just remembered that I have to memorize the Olympic Fanfare by wednesday too. That’s fine. It will be easy.
But yeah…
I’m excited about to China.
Though the whole genocide issue is a problem for me too. Specially seeing how much I stressed over Students Taking Action Now Darfur this year.
This post is too long. I end it.
now
150-Awww! That’s awesome.
kdsfjdshfjdh gibberish.
I am a mush of emotions and Juno soundtrack right now. Yay?
Juno has good music to be emotional to anyway.
-150 nice, Beavo.
150- Dude, that is awesome.
…..
This is pretty sweet (As long as it doesn’t get zapped). It shows the blog as it was a day in the past.

Re: My weekend- Not to sound stuck up, but it was totally awesome. Of course, that’s about the only word that you guys used, except for nice, which you used twice.
I really needed that weekend. Even though I fell asleep in Spanish, it seriously boosted my morale. 2008 has been really depressing, and that was just like… getting your braces off and becoming lactose tollorant and having no allergies and getting perfect eyesight all at the same time.
156- Whoa…
156 – Wow! That’s amazing!
152) I’m glad to help lolll omfg I should be studying right now what is going on. What a birthday I’m gonna have, sitting in the gym watching the clock countdown to my ULTIMATE SUFFERING. ohh I am stressing about TYMEEE ugh ugh I’m kind excited to just do it too, though, I just want to get it out of the way! argh!
156) hahaha that takes me back..waaoooo
I’m barring myself from the computer now so if I come back screaming on Friday you know why. so long for a bit everyone.
160- See ya!
156-Whoa. That was, like, a million years when Beavo wasn’t even, like, invented!
Clarissa introduced me to Mindless Self Indulgance… they’re crazy. Look ’em up on iTunes or something.
Fern is tired. The part in her hair is burned from being out in the sun and she still has cinders in her hair from the Shay locomotives that she rode behind all weekend. Wondering what she’ll find in the way of new posts, she turns on the computer and is drowned in posts. Gargling out a cry of dismay after not being able to read them all she decides to write a little post in third person and then check some other threads.
By the way, she’d like you to know that she missed you all while she was gone.
156- Cool! It doesn’t format correctly for some reason, but that’s interesting. I wonder if it works for the whole internet…
Karin’s accomplishments:
I sunburned my scalp today.
I wrote a letter to my best guy friend for when he comes to visit. (even though its not for 2 months)
I still didn’t do my math homework and I’m not that bothered.
I got very mad about getting a low C on my science test, and I’ve now decided that I don’t care as much as I thought I did.
I feel like sleeping in the park but I can’t until there’s no school the next day.
http:// youtube.com/ watch?v=yNkKBKMnLdg&feature=related
sorry if this will be cut off and you will just all die of curiosity, but it is really quite awesome.
[A momentarily indulgent GAPA will let this one through (in delinkified form). –Admin.]
See you all later, I have to go practice and eat dinner.
House ish a loofly show. Hugh Laurie + American accent = ♥
Plus I love medical mysteries! It’s like my dad and true crime.
We need a thread about vapid TV shows.
I say, what happened to the RRS? I miss it.
RRS?
I just finished the rough draft of my research paper!
And I didn’t fail to hand in my history homework!
What a wonderful day. NOT.
Mondays suck. And I have PE first thing tomorrow. (due to scheduling stupidity, my schedule is stupid so even though I normally have PE first, I didn’t today.)
I hate homework…
I am also hoping my English teacher will be amazingly forgiving, because I forgot a parent signature I was supposed to turn into her today at school. I told her I’d turn it in at the end of school, but then my mom had to get my brother to the doctor’s office so we were rushing to get on our bikes and get home, and I completely forgot.
Speaking of my brother, he’s on steroids now. Doctor prescribed, of course, but it’s still pretty funny in my mind.
Oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no…
Not only do I not have my homework due TODAY done, I can’t find my homework due TOMORROW either. This is not good. Not good at all. The only people from my English class I have phone numbers for are 8th graders, and all of the 8th graders at my school are gone on a field trip all week. I am dead. I am so dead.
171- Steroids were once prescribed for me, but we read the list of side effects and said “…no thanks, we’ll try something else.”
Hello Everyone! I’m really happy right now!
171- Well, be careful. Steriods are steroids.
Hi, TMFA. Glad to hear you’re happy. But why? Or is it one of those occasional bouts of free-floating happiness? One never knows when they might strike.
176- Boy Scouts! I’m nearing my Rank!
175-Actually, anabolic steroids, (think baseball) are a completely different kind of steroid than most medicinal ones in, say, inhalers. They don’t make you less smart, or have other side effects of that damaging type!
I love May. I have a real bad case of May fever right now! *Turns off the computer to go frolicking in the flowers*
Beavo+homework=problems. Big problems.
I hugged a bunch of people rigth in front of my dean, and her opinion is that hugging is like rape, so she was all stuttering and freaked out. it was hilarious.
With the way Cat’s Meow and Beavo seem to be ranting about homework (the worst punishment ever) I probably shouldn’t mention that I AM DONE WITH HOMEWORK FOR THE YEAR!!! HA!!! I SAID IT!!!!! We’re currently taking exams (as bad as homework) but we get halfdays during exam week and we have no school friday or monday, we graduate tuesday, and then it’s SUMMER!!!!!!! HECK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TMFA (177) I didn’t know you were a Boy Scout. I wonder if many other Musers are. What rank have you almost reached? What else do you have to do to get there?
180-I luvs hugging! But not homework. Homework should all burn.
181-Luckyyy!!!
skjfksjfjsk gahhh!
I am extremely confuzzled out of my mind and I need to go on the R&R thread but not now.
182-i’m not (obviously) but most of my guy friends are. most are eagle or close to it though, so they don’t do much actual scout-y stuff.
excluding pit, my life would be so wonderful right now.
but then there’s pit.
oh well…that’s my life. almost amazing but not quite.
181- GRUMP GRUMP! i have 5 weeks of school left. GRR. at least we get 2 weeks in november, 2 in december and 2 in ferbuary as breaks… no im not year round.
180- ha. stiff dean.
I just got back from sailing this weekend… pretty boss
182 – What about Girl Scouts? Are we not special enough?
Actually, I’m not a girl scout anymore. But I used to be a Junior…
I’m in Girl Scouts! (cadettes) Our troop is an excuse to hang out with our friends for an hour every other week. We never do anything at all!
I FOUND A WAY PAST THE BLOCKS! I CAN COME ON HERE AGAIN! sorry for the caps but
I’m so happy!
177- 1st Class. very short from there to Eagle.
Wasn’t E2MB a Boy Scout? and MissSwann wanted to be one, but she’s a girl.
I have to do a lot of knots.
186- Did you know that the BSA is starting to look at making a girl program? the GSUSA is really dieing.
My thoughts on Muse:
What ever happened to Ivars Peterson? Or Diana Lutz? After Romana Prokopiw took over, Muse has gone downhill. Now they fired Ivars? How am I supposed to live without my Math Page?!? Let’s start a
revolutionpeaceful protest to bring back the old Muse. Who’s with me?On a different note, has anyone else noticed what they put in the list of editorial staff? Now that’s funny.
What the world really needs is Muse Scouts. Just think what their merit badges would be like!
Muse Scouts!!??! I’m joining!!
What would we do?
190- Muse Fanfiction thread, here I come…
190-I’d join!
190- I’m working on it!
MUSESCOUTS FOREVER. Ok our founder is Sir Coontz the G.A.P.A i believe. I think some merit badges could be pie throwing and randomest fact. other ideas anyone?
MSA (Muse Scouts of America) Ranks:
Muse. Joining Rank. Alka to Scout in BSA
Feather.
AEIOU
Pwt
Chad
Uranina
Kokopelli. Eagle like. must complete a Progejt for the ferthurment of Mostly Harmless.
Oh, and for every MuseBlog (Merit Badge and Muse Blog are both revered to as MB, so We call the Merit Badges MuseBlogs)
You earn beyond the Rank of Kokopelli, you get a Kokopelli pie.
~~~~
Thread for this?
you forgot bo…. SHAME be upon you. SHAME yo you and your family.
I was in Girl Scouts and I achived the rank of Brownie before quitting, as the older girls were mean to me. I enjoy reading Boy’s Life in the library, though. Seems like the BSA has all the fun.
We should have all the Muses. Maybe Mimi can be like Brownies/Cub Scouts!
I love the idea of Muse Scouts! I would join in the blink of an eye.
On a slightly different subject, has anybody here played the Free Rice game? It’s at http://www.freerice.com (the GAPAs can de-linkify that as necessary, but I don’t think it’s zap worthy). Basically, you answer questions about vocabulary (the words are hard! Trust me!) and for every question you get right they donate 20 grains of rice to the UN World Food Program that’s trying to end world hunger. I highly recommend that all of you check it out.
[GAPA note: Though we don’t often post links to outside sites, I’m making an exception for this one. But be careful, it’s an addictive game! — Rosanne]
My ipod speaker thing thinks it’s 5 pm. It is actually almost 9:30. Lalalalalala!
I have no attention span right now wooooo!!!
*needz sugaaarrrrr*
Almost done with school…sooooo close…
I want to join the Muse Scouts! (is that what we’re calling it?)
GAPA Note on 201 – Yeah, sorry. I knew it was an outside link but I figured it might be an exception. Thanks for letting it through.
Anyways, yes, it is addictive! I’ve already donated 6720 grains of rice, and I’m on Vocab Level 31. I’ve found so far that knowledge of roots and having really good guessing skills are very helpful.
201- why still is it a link? why not delink it.
Just donate 300 grains.
Just donate 300 grains.
It’s really fun. level 41 is my best.
Muse Scouts??? How many organizations that we’re all gonna be a part of do we need? (Not that I’m against it, I think It would be great.)
201- That game is awesome! I tore myself away after donating 3300 grains. I’ll go back later, that was a great idea, whoever made it should win something.
I think I’ve gotten to vocab level 42 before. I haven’t played in a while though.
Ugh. Scouts. *is pied* Bad memories there, my friends. *shudder*
Anyway. Imma go play the freerice thing now.
I love that game!!!!
I used to be a girl scout. I got to junior but most of the people in my troop were really mean and I didn’t have enough time anyway.
I got to level 27 but I have to get off now. So bye.
I got to vocab level 48 and donated over 1100!
206- I just did.
Fun game, but very addictive! All it needs is some irritating theme music…
BOY SCOUTS: My dad was one for ages and ages. He still has tons of badges.
FREE RICE: I love that game. The only problem is that I can’t stop when I need to. I’ve got to level 45 in the past but I haven’t had that much time to play in a while.
203- Yeah, roots are v. helpful.
I love freerice!
i tried free rice, but i only got 26 as my highest level.
My english teacher lets us on FreeRice after we’re done in the computer lab.
I’m home sick today! Wheee…not.
My high score is 40.
My highest score is 41.
I’mmmmm tiredddddddd…
Gahhhh science finals soon!!! NooO!!! I think that will kill me in that class.
Yay! I just got 41!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Math final tomorrow. Why am I not studying? *slaps self for not studying* Ah well.
FREERICE
i am obsessed. i got to level 49 once, but i haven’t had the attention span to match it for a while. it is very addicting though. i love how you can figure out the meaning of words you’ve never seen before (that’s not really specific to freerice, but it’s a general thing i love about words :D)
I just got 50!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m got to 47, but now I’m just trying to get up there again. Unfortunately, I feel the homework looms. Oh well. Just more typing.
223- And then there’s the moment when you get a word that you just know automatically. Gnathic = pertaining to the jaw. Of course. Because there are those fish…
Fun fun.
Let’s go see what my highscore is…..
My highest is 43
41. I had no idea that a word like “hornswoggle” is a word!
I keep thinking of all these ways I can use the words…
It helps a lot if you just go with your first inclination. If you over-analyze it it seems you’re most likely to get it wrong.
226- and “gnash”.
My highest FreeRice was 49 I think.
I donated 1000 grains of rice. My highest score was 47. I need to go work on that homework now. Who can tell me about the huge test that French people take at the end of high school to determine what college they’ll go to? Or, for that matter, anything else about France?
OH MY GOSHES!
Today is my two-year Blogiversary! Wow. I’ve been around for a while! And I was scrolling through the Who’s Here for no reason and I saw my name and the date and WOW OMG!
Cool.
*That should be 10,000.
I don’t know how I’ll ever finish this homework. It’s due Friday, three pages, double-spaced, 12-point Times New Roman font, with a bulleted list stapled to the back, telling the entire life history of you character. My character happens to be a middle-aged woman whose biggest goal appears to be getting her son and his wife to have children, and to tell you the plain and simple truth, I don’t identify with her at all. That doesn’t matter while I’m acting, but it does hinder my writing.
Just got back from a track meet. For once, it was WARM!
233- Happy two-year!
Free Rice: In one hour, I donated 11000 grains of rice and hit level 44. And went down to 38. And back and forth several times.
Alice, you’re so unlucky! The middle of May is what the teachers call the ‘lazy days’. I have almost no homework! At the end of May, the teachers start assigning things again.
233- Happy blogiversary!
237- Urgh. Now I know we don’t go to the same school. The middle of May has as much if not more homework than usual.
But the truth is, most of my homework isn’t assigned by teachers. It’s E’s assignments for drama.
Except for the English project.
And the science stuff.
And the Spanish presentation.
And the FOUR chapters for health.
Yeah. Maybe you’re right. It’s just poor luck.
We had a peacock in the yard today. It had wandered off from it’s home and decided to stay for the day. It spend most of the day on top of the freezer shed (a small, rusting old building in which is stored the freezer– what else?!) and when we called it’s owner she came over but we couldn’t catch the bird. So, we are now temporarily in possession of a peacock!!
What a crazy, crazy day. Added to yesterday’s discovery of a muse in my room. I wonder what’ll happen tomorrow……
234- maybe she has a hobby she doesn’t talk about. like carving and painting garden gnomes.
239- Once we became the temporary owners of a parrot. Not for very long, though. We/Us kids were scared of it.
240- *imagines Mother-Jacques carving and painting garden gnomes* *giggles* *bursts out laughing*
And yet, the hobby thing is a good idea.
My highest level so far on Free Rice is 40, and I’ve donated about 7000 grains of rice. I’m getting everybody at my school into it too.
I’ve never gotten above 50, but I’ve donated about 10020 grains.
The Sage is exhausted…
I just blew my brains playing freerice for 4 hours. (I’ve been doing it for a while.)
Meh. I hurt. I got stung by a bee and I’m rather allergic, so my ankle is all swelled up and itchy.
On a rather amusing note, the tornado sirens were going off last night, and, not only was there a tornado, but it started hailing huge hail while we were in the car. It was oddly amusing and terrifying at the same time.
I just looked up FreeRice and am playing it in another tab. Our newspaper did an article about it once, and all the recent talk on here prompted me to actually check it out. I’m up to level 33, is that good/bad or somewhere in the middle?
Wow, that FreeRice game is totally addicting…almost as bad as MB!
I got to level 43 and donated 13260 grains of rice.
Humm, I should go out and work some more on my paper that I’m writing……Secular Music and it’s Roles in the 18th century. That is so sadly typical of me, no one else that I know would choose such a subject to write about.
The highest I’ve gotten on FreeRice is level 52, but I haven’t counted how many grains of rice I’ve donated…it’s a lot, though.
I have returned in triumph.
Just thought I’d let you guys know that.
How many levels are there?
I had to read three chapters in To Kill a Mockingbird. Man, that book is GRIM.
250-I like it a lot! It may be grim, but it’s also great!
I meant to spazz about this yesterday, but I forgot. We had a track meet on Wednesday, and I was running the mile. I ran my fastest time ever (6: 03) and *hyperventilates* I won the mile! SO now I get to go on to the finals. Huzzah! I am excessively excited to say the least, despite the fact that this means that I will have to run another mile sometime in the near future. Grr. *droops a little* Sorry for being gloatful, I desperately wanted to rant.
250-We just finished reading that. I have to say, I really like it quite a bit.
My highest FreeRice score is 42.
252- You’re much faster than me, that’s for sure. My best is 7:15.
I like some parts, what I mostly dislike is having to answer all these reading questions. My English teacher doesn’t let us read for fun, the only reading we do in class is assigned books, with lots of questions to answer. And essays to write afterwards.
I’m reading The Picture of Dorian Gray at the moment. I started it this morning and just a few minutes ago I was sprawled on the couch reading with a bowl of tofu cheesecake, yum.
253~ I got to 43, but spend most of the time in the mid to late 30s.
254-Much is an exageration. 7:15 is quite quite fast too.
And, yes, I agree with you. Having to answer myriad questions about a book can sometimes kill the enjoyment that one would otherwise derive from reading it. Although, it all depends on whether the questions are provocative or just…*trails off to prevent self from launching into rant*
Sorry for the double post. *looks sheepish*
255-I love both that book and tofu cheesecake!
256~ Cool! *gently tosses some tofu cheesecake through the Musiverse to Hypatia* By the way, concerning the Beggar’s Opera; we did read through it and ad a great time last month and we’re planning to do it again next weekend! I’m not sure if I posted about it before, or if you read it, but I thought you might be interested to know because of your liking that play too.
KaiYves (250): TKIM is one of my favorite books! It’s definitely in my top 5. Do you like it so far?
Aah, TKAM. Where did I get the I? *sigh*
Ooh! I have two pieces of good news. I got into the Volunteer program at the children’s hospital, and I was invited to join NHS! *excitement*
Today was eh.
PROS: I did my Golda Meir speech in LA and I think it worked out great.
I got 108% on my perspective book. (A++)
CONS: I’m up this late.
Free Rice: 20,000! Level 46!
258-*gratefully receives* Your post made me incredibly and disproportionately happy for four reasons:
) that nice gerund! (I ♥ gerunds!) as I have an obsession with those, having just learned about them in English class
The virtual toss (delcious)
The fact that I’ll have someone to rant about that book with, when you’re done! : )
You mentioned Beggar’s Opera! (and by the way, I am delighted to hear it went well, and have a flambablambablous time next weekend)
Your using (
The Cleveland Cavaliers fail. Awwww.
I have no homework today. That’s the most amazing thing everrrrr this yearrrr!
Late in July a graduate from my school is releasing a website called [snip!]. It’s one of those myspacey things but not as random because it will supposedly have news and other things on it. Anyway, if it doesn’t get zapped by the GAPAs, people should go to the site when it comes out.
263-Who is Nesubanebded? Sorry if this has been asked before.
I got an Honourable Mention at the Snipville County Science Fair!
AHHH opening night over. Wasn’t to bad. Needs work still though on some stuff.
Will rant on how they made me kill the rose later
It still work’s but compared to how lovely it looked before, it’s crap. Ahhhg.
To tired now though. Shower, bed, and then grounded from comp so see you all later I suppose…
ARGH. My homework has degenerated into incoherent rambling.
My trip to Fred Meyer was the most miserable experience of the week.
I need sleep. And energy. And all that good stuff.
I wonder if I could turn in my paper to E with only two pages, and say, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It degenerated into incoherent rambling.” *hangs head in shame* “It’s still three pages total.”
Except maybe then I’d lose my part.
I guess I’d better work on that now… *drags self back to homework*
260- It’s okay. My full thoughts appear in post 254.
263~ I’m glad that that post made you happy. I unwittingly used a gerund, but I’m glad it had such a positive effect!
I’M TIRED OF HOMEWORK. even though I haven’t done a whole lot of it yet today. Ugh. I typed up the paper that I’ve supposed to have been writing forever ago, and that took longer than I expected, but it’s done. Or very near to anyway, if mom isn’t satisfied with it this way.
On another note, my normally straight hair is all curly today. We experimented with rag curls, and I look like my head exploded. More so on the right side, because the left didn’t work as well.
It’s amusing, and because it’s raining here it’s gotten all limp again, save a few determined loops.
I think I’ll go have some more of that cheesecake, I’m hungry again……and do homework, eew.
264-Aww it got zapped. I was expecting that though.
I just walked to the store and got my mom a card and chocolate for mother’s day. I’m also probably getting her a cleaning service for mother’s day and it is called my sister and me.
Now I need to eat. I wish I had money to get myself some chocolate.
I have decided that it is fun causing controversy an saying thins that make people mad.
therfore, I have decided that every nce in a while, I ill say something infuriating just so my name never dies around here. haha.
and they will probably all be on the Neophytes thread. hahahah
*end of extremely rare post*
YAY! It’s the weekend!
*goes off to rants thread to talk about her week*
271- You have invoked my Rant Of Gender Discrimination
Yes! I’m back! *does weekend dance*

OK, funny story. First you ought to know that our assistant principal is a very funny but rather intimidating man. He has a perpetual poker face, and so it is impossible to tell whether he approves or disapproves of anything. So today, all the seniors went to see a movie. That meant that Elijah was not in Acting class, and so all we could do was run lines. And, well, we got distracted. Mariah found a bunch of metal rods, a hockey stick, a rubber chicken, and a ball of yarn, and the entire practice session degenerated into chaos. Here is a brief description of the chaos:
-Will and I are dueling with two of the metal rods.
-Mariah is using the ball of yarn as a ball and the hockey stick as a bat
-Haley is playing with the chicken and a metal rod
-The assistant principal walks in
My back was to the house (we were in the auditorium), so I had no idea until I heard Will say, “Hey, it’s J-.”
-Haley throws the rubber chicken offstage
-Will and I are frozen, our dueling rods still in position
-There is nervous laughter
Assistant principal (J-): *doesn’t appear to notice chaos* Is C– S– here?
It was hilarious, although it does lose something in translation.
255-i have that on my ipod! (as a note, not as an audiobook). for vacations and such. good book.
my parents are ridiculous. i’m home at 9:30 on a friday, and my mom still thought that was too late (the only reason i’m home is a-she called and was like “come home nyer nyer” and b-because i have pit tomorrow at 9 *death* AM!)
going to see iron man tomorrow though!
it rains way too much here. WAY too much. like every day too much. we went out on the roof today because it was only sprinkling, but then it started pouring. so we had to walk back to bill’s. and while i love walking in the rain, it was really cold in her basement. walking home kind of sucked as well. wet…cold…early…not much fun.
i have to do my story too…this weekend, because they’re due to section editors tues. (we just trade, there are at least 2 editors per section). and i have a poll to pass out monday to 100 people. lauren and lizzy said they’d pass it out to their classes too though so it should be ok
bleh. everybody keeps telling me they can’t believe how fast the year went and how they can’t believe it’s over already.
it’s not over. not nearly. >.<
AHHHH my life has degenerated into incoherent rambling.
LOL, Alice.
Dah *headdesk* I want to go to camp ssooooooo bad. 8 weeks of pure nature. And no boys! Or internet… but yeah. NEHHH school sucks right now. Three more weeks of regular school and then one more week of awesome end-of-year fun and then W00T!
I want a time machine. NOW.
rubber chicken!
Alice-Haha! Maybe the principal thinks that’s just what happens in acting classes. The drama club directors at my school have wild things going on in their rooms all the time.
There is an LOLcat of a dolphin that says “so long n thanks for all the fish”. It’s awesome!
I had an awful dream last night. It was after the kokon, and there were a bunch of pics on MB. There was even one of Opal, but it didn’t look like her at all. And the worst thing was: I couldn’t remember anything about it. The kokon had come and gone without me even experiencing it!
That happens a lot in dreams, actually. Maybe my imagination is not sufficient.
I think many MBrs would like Tom Lerher. His songs (that I know of) are “The Elements,” “Who’s Next,” “Poisening Pigeons in the Park,” and “New Math.” They are soooooooooo funny!!!!!!!!!
270-so, LOLdolphin. XD dolphins are win
281-many MBers love tom lehrer to death *points at self* w00t!
281-“The Elements ” is a great song! privatehand.com /flash/ elements.html is a charming video animation with no advertisments. I’m sorry if you have to snip it!
[All right, we’re in an indulgent frame of mind and will let this one through in its delinkified state. –Admin.]
I. HATE. MICE. They are in my room. Making scratching noises and eating each other. I’m not kidding, we caught one in a trap and another one came and ate part of it. CANNIBALISM for heaven’s sake, EEW. I bailed out and came into the house, I wasn’t exactly comfortable with the thought of sleeping in a room with creatures that would eat others of their kind. _ it was a llllooooooonnnnnggggggggg night, and I’m tired and my eyes hurt.
The boys are at Speed Racer, I’m at the library, and the May issue of Muse is back on the shelf, having already been read by me.
281,282- He also wrote “An Irish Ballad.” I sang part of it on the Alter Ego thread under the name A Veritable Nightingale. It’s amazingly funny and morbid.
283- *hugs Timon* Timon’s a mouse!
Ooh, I’m dizzy. Maybe I should stop drinking coffee and then going on long walks. This always seems to happen.
Trifle is so good. It is my new favorite food.
My dream last night was heavily influenced by H2G2.
281- He also wrote “We Will All Go Together When We Go”. If you haven’t heard that, you need to. I have a box set of Tom Lehrer CDs with all of his songs on them.
I am back!
stupid….blocked internet…parents…..grrrr.
I’m done.
285 – Go H2G2! My dreams are never like that.
285~ Give my apologies to Timon, I’m sure he’s a lovely creature. I assume that he also stays in a cage and doesn’t chew up things in your room. Or that he eats his fellow mice.
Mice are adorable beasties, I just prefer them out of my room and not making things go bump in the night. At least this time they didn’t run down my arm, that happened last time..ugh.
288- He’s my daemon. He is a lovely creature.
I think we should name the next one “June Bugs.”
Only 65 days till the kokon!
I suppose I should go and clean my room now. And sweep the kitchen.
Ugh. Housework.
On a slightly different note, did anyone else notice the hidden messages in red (Or yellow if you look on the last page)? I believe is says something like
‘abouredurateinpositionmyteureaboowiningacgreebaboutteverythingelseguysareactuallytriteitosaymusasethmeiredno’
Shall we, the muse readers, decode the cryptic cipher?
I haven’t been on MuseBlog much lately, have I? I have no idea why, either, as I’ve had basically no homework.
My team lost 2 more soccer games today.
We finish our season with 4 wins and 4 losses – and all 4 losses came in a row, as soon as we lost our highest scoring player when she broke her ankle. Blech.
293 – You’re new, aren’t you? -pies-
As to the code thing, that should probably be posted on the Muse discussion thread. Otherwise, people who haven’t read the issue yet could see that and have the surprise spoiled for them.
Yay! Me and Clarissa (or is it Clarissa and I?) went to Hot Topic and Spencers at the mall. I bought: A MCR and Breaking Benjamin shirt and a rainbow checkered arm-warmer. She bought: Two MSI shirts, some CD that I forget the name of, two black skirts and a wristband that matches mine.
I ♥ MSI. They’re so crazy.
And I made a CD called Clarissa with all these awesome songs I just bought. It had I Miss You by blink-182 and Disenchanted by MCR and Diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin and Shut Me Up by MSI.
295- I’m probably the only one here who hasn’t read it. *gloomy* I knew I should have renewed sooner.
296-Awww that cd thing is really sweet! *mush mush*
If you still can add to it I would reccomend “Anyone Else But You” and “All I Want is You” from the Juno soundtrack.
I definitely have spring fever right now. I need to stop having school mess with my life so I can go wander around outside all day and do nothing of any particular importance.
297 – Hmm. True.
OH MY GOSH! My school competed in the state orchestra championships, and we got 2nd in full orchestra and 3rd in string orchestra! YAY! We’re going to win next year. The really good thing is, we beat all the other high schools in my town! HUZZAH!
i saw iron man. things went boom! it was fun
then we baked a cake. yum. ‘cept we didn’t actually eat it, because we had to leave. we also watched part of temple of doom.
and i’ve had massive amounts of sugar wheee. i’ll probably go watch juno on my ipod or something
YAYAYAY!!!! I got my Muse! It was so good!
Going to see my grandmother today.
301 – Yeah, Ironman is awesome. I didn’t see the scene at the end of the credits, though.
My account on Photobucket is trying to get my to change my password. I keep clicking on “no thanks” but it doesn’t let me. Grr.
Don’t forget everyone- tomorrow is TOWEL DAY!!!!!
305- Ye gads! So it is!
260- Well done!
NHS – National health service? What?
Iron man ftw. xD the scene at the end of the credits was funny. I am so going to be Iron Woman when I grow up lololol
I have just discovered the wonderful snarkiness of Sarah Vowell. I am at this very moment full of <3.
(307) I also ♥ Sarah Vowell. She’s not just snarky: she’s smart.
(305) I thought Towel Day was May 25, but I’m willing to be corrected. Someone double-check, please.
308-On the official towel day website, it says it’s May 25!
I got my new puppy last Sunday. She’s SO CUTE!!!!!!!
Towel day is definitely May 25, because last year I was in a hotel in D.C. and hadn’t brought my own towel (I know, I’m such a bad nerd…) so I couldn’t celebrate
towel day is may 25 because it hasn’t shown up on FB
and facebook knows all
Hullo there.
I just thought I’d stop by and send my greetings and love to all.
Things have been going well for me. I’ve been accepted into several schools, but have chosen to attend Berklee, the school of music, to study rock and cello. The others (including the New England Conservatory, the Peabody Institute, and Rice University) weren’t as heavy in alternative forms of music as I would have liked. So Berklee it is.
My boyfriend asked me to marry him. I said no. We love each other very much and we’ve been together for five years, but I’m just not ready to make such a huge and serious commitment as matrimony. We’ve agreed to spend some time apart, to allow ourselves to get to know other people before we discuss engagement again.
I’ve been kicked out of the house by my parents. We got into a huge fight, and so I’m now staying with a friend. It’s okay – my friend is part of my band, so we just rock out more often. But it’s tough, fighting with your parents.
I finally got to see an Apocalyptica concert. Apocalyptica was the band who first put me onto this rock cellist track – they’re a quartet of four cellists who will rock your socks off. It was… really inspirational. I’ve been motivated to work even harder.
Voice is now my seventh instrument. I’ve been taking lessons and am told I have a lot of talent. I dunno about that – I just wanted to improve my singing so that when I randomly burst into song, I don’t annoy people. lawl. But we’ll see where that goes.
My band and I are working on another CD, this one entitled “The Noble House of Blackâ€. It’s our first (and probably last) Wizard Rock album, in which I am Bellatrix Lestrange, my boyfriend is Sirius Black, the pianist is Narcissa Malfoy, and our drummer is Kreacher. We’re having a lot of fun producing it. Don’t know if we’ll ever finish, but hey, it’s some spiffness.
I suppose that’s it.
Peace to the pies.
HPBs forever.
Love,
– Faye
313- Nice to see you back, Ms. Beauchamp. The album sounds like a lot of fun. I can just imagine Kreacher as a drummer…
313- Wow. Good luck in college, and music, and life in general. Hope to see you here now and then. Or more often, depending on how busy you are.
I found my $50 from Christmas. In a card, in an envelope, in a drawer I haven’t looked in for weeks or even months.
I finally turned in my job application. Huzzah. And I learned that references didn’t have to be employers. Double huzzah.
There is a new addition to my favorite movies list: Bon Voyage. It’s a very light, funny, exciting French film set right before WWII. I recommend it highly.
