The Birthday Girl

You know what today is?

Today is Laura's birthday. She's 23. And how is she spending her special day?

Studying for college exams.

Laura hates studying, she LOATHES studying, and earlier on she apologised to me for being in a grumpy mood. But the fact is, she should be celebrating today- instead, she's feeling miserable. How can you make her feel better?

I think that a few birthday wishes from my loyal Minions may just raise a smile on her face...

  6. Happy Birthday, Laura! Yesterday was my birthday and I also was studying for an exam and doing a project, to relax you have to take a drinking chocolate and try to think that you're going to pass. I know that it's difficult, but it's your birthday.
    And when you finish the exams go with Derek and your friends to some special place. :)

    ReplyDelete
  12. That IS a public domain birthday song, right?

    And I won't get sued?

    Because a lot of people get sued when they sing the wrong birthday song...

    ReplyDelete
  13. And, can I ask, what is college like?

    Apart from studying on your birthday...

    ReplyDelete
  14. Tell me how...
    I lost my power...
    Oh...

    ReplyDelete
  15. Got up on the wrong side of life today,
    Crash the car,
    and I'm going to be really late...

    ReplyDelete
  16. I might go on my PS3, I'll still comment though.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Hi Kallista, where are you going to be on for 20 more mins?

    ReplyDelete
  18. I'VE JUST REALISED!

    23!

    AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Will you be back by 8:20? Because I'll be a loner at that time :(

    ReplyDelete
  20. YEY!

    THE MUSIC VIDEO WITH THE WALKING MILK CARTON!!

    ReplyDelete
  21. You still live on in my farmer's eyes...

    ReplyDelete
  22. On a road that leads me straight, to who knows where...

    ReplyDelete
  23. Laura. Wow. Like, Happy Birthday. Me being a girl who loves Valkyrie and everything about her, I consequently think you're the big cheese too. :) While it probably won't help, I'll tell you I'm studying for an exam tomorrow as well, and it's GOD AWFUL to do. Really, I'd rather be bookworming or something. But like my mum always tells me, "means to an end". Doesn't help much, but mum's have to be right.

    Have a good evening, treat yourself to something junky and unhealthy and have a rave in your room or similar. Because 23 is the MAGIC number. :)

    ReplyDelete
  24. Um...

    Have you heard Jenny Don't Be Hasty by Paolo Nutini?

    It goes, "You said you'd marry me, if I was 23"

    I just think it's random. :)

    ReplyDelete
  25. You're losing your mind?

    THEN HURRY UP AND FIND IT!

    ...

    ReplyDelete
  26. i was just out shoveling the walk for 2 hours!!!! i hate snow!!!

    ReplyDelete
  27. You have snow?

    I just have a mountain of ice that refuses to melt with another mountain of grit on top of it.

    ReplyDelete
  28. yeah, we have snow *glares at F***ing two foot high show piles*

    ReplyDelete
  29. still got a few minutes actually

    ReplyDelete
  30. No, really? i never would have guessed that you lost your mind :P

    ReplyDelete
  31. Why do you glomp every time you see me Lizzy?

    ReplyDelete
  32. I'm always the last to see a new blog posting *sad
    HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAURA!!!! :D
    i know a way for you to feel better
    DRINK A MILKSHAKE!!! they are deliciousness
    but if you are lactose intolerant (which is not very fun) you should go see a very awesome movie at a nearby movie theater
    if there is nothing out right now that you want to see, then you should eat some waffles (made with soy milk or something :P) they are fluffy clouds of awesomeness

    as for everyone else on the blog....hi :D

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  39. Please try and be on by 8:20 Kallista :)

    ReplyDelete
  40. so my family and i were at the dinner table one day eating some cake (because we do that for no reason) and my sister looked over at me at said "i'm giving you my death glare" (she was trying to stop me from saying some dirty comment that i have forgotten. and as i tried to reply i started to laugh and cough at the same time, thus choking on the cake in my mouth. so i'm sitting there dying on the table with my family laughing at me and my dad going "don't worry tori, i know cpr" a moment later "ok i don't know it that well. BREATHE TORI BREATHE!!" a few minutes go by and i'm finally able to breathe and wipe the tears from my eyes and the laughter sudden;y comes to a halt until i turn to my sister and i say "what were we just talking about, i forgot" thus starting the laughter all over again. for the rest of the night, i couldn't take one night of cake without my family claiming that i was going to die of cake :P

    ReplyDelete
  48. People never drag me into fights at school... because I'm IN the fight. I don't know why, but loads of people try and beat me up... I always beat them of course, but I think it's a case of "Look at that tall guy, if we beat him up we'll be well legends" but yeh... they just make a fool of themselves.

    ReplyDelete
  49. you're a tall person!!!!
    you must fall!!!!
    *jumps on the back of dragona and starts to NOM NOM NOM on his arm :P

  58. Um... I don't think ganging up on me would be a good idea... people who do that generally get thrown or knocked out... thrown is the normal one... the last person I knocked out waaassss... a Pro Boxer in year 11.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  75. Sorry about that. *Runs away* I actually have to go, so later! Happy B-Day Laura!

    ReplyDelete
  76. Dragona: ANY POWER YOU WANT IT TO!!!!!
    you can make things come to life and make things disappear and make everything colorful or black and white

    ReplyDelete
  77. It sounds like... painting... a video game about painting... wth?

    ReplyDelete
  78. my brain is going to start hurting if i read it now and try to contribute to this very awesome conversation so i'll read it later :D

    ReplyDelete
  79. a paint brush can be ANYTHING for instance i see a wand not a paint brush and when i paint its a spell *strts giggling at how childish that seems*

    ReplyDelete
  80. I would have been on earlier tonight, but my neighbour popped in for a cuppa coffee, so we couldn't wash up for a while and then when we did, it was nearly 7 and well... I was late!

    ReplyDelete
  81. Neary 8:00... one hour before I have to go to bed.

    ReplyDelete
  82. yes it is i had no school today cus of a snow storm have abouut a foot and a half of snow out side and my noes is cold wha† the fudge????

    ReplyDelete
  83. its only 2 in the afternoon over here...no wonder i never get the first comment :P

    ReplyDelete
  84. Lol Skulgirl... here when it was December we had 3 feet of snow :P

    ReplyDelete
  85. lucky skulgirl, it snowed but we only had a 2 hour delay and they added time so we could still take our exams, so it was basically a whole day of school >:l

    ReplyDelete
  86. I wish it was 3 pm here... then I wouldn't have to go to bed for 6 hours.

    ReplyDelete
  87. well a foot is a lot where i live i live right near the ocean so either it hits or goes out to sea

    ReplyDelete
  88. i hope i dont get school tomorrow cus then i would have a six day week end but i think its just gonna be a delay

    ReplyDelete
  89. We get to watch Romeo and Juliet in english but a modern version, instead of daggers they use guns and stuff which is funny... they still speak in an old way but at least we don't have to do much work.

    ReplyDelete
  90. it didn't snow nearly as much as it did over where you are
    we only got like 1 or 2 inches, just enough for me to fall on my butt going down my driveway this morning to go to school

    ReplyDelete
  91. Lol Skulgirl, good luck in getting another snowday :)

    ReplyDelete
  92. meh it could happen the school system is strickt bout that stuf but i think we might get a delay

    ReplyDelete
  93. No, it's set in somewhere which looks like California, although it was set in italy apparantly :S there's two families who hate eachother and start trying to gun eachother down in the middle of a petrol station. Leonardo Di-Caprio is in it as one of the boys from one of the families who doesn't like violence, Romeo :S and then I'm not sure about the other people but the petrol station caught fire. All it is, is fighting to be honest.

    ReplyDelete
  94. oh, i watched that modern version...it didn't make much sense
    we had started to watch it in class but we never finished it so i borrowed it from my teacher and watched it over the weekend once....when i returned she asked if i liked it, i was like "what the hell did i just watch?" (i didn't exactly say that to her but i was thinking it really hard)

    ReplyDelete
  95. But you can't beat a good old shoot out in a petrol station on a film :P

    ReplyDelete
  96. ...skulgirl...it was romeo and juliet...

    ReplyDelete
  97. i hate watching classics they are sooo predictable!

    ReplyDelete
  98. It IS Romeo and Juliet Skulgirl, I said before that we got to watch the modern vesion of it in english!

    ReplyDelete
  99. i like the classics, i just didn't understand this remake
    in modern times with that old english, it was like i was watching a film in spanish

    ReplyDelete
  100. half of the things i say never make sense to any one but me it always sound good in my mind but then when it comes out of my mouth or in typing it comes out.....strange

    ReplyDelete
  101. I agree Tori, there's all these bad@$$'s who speak like old ways like:


    Thou shall not break thy kin.



    (I made that up)

    ReplyDelete
  102. Ooh... Indiana Jones... DAMN IT! It's nearly Saturday! Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!



    I have to watch Star Wars Episode II - Attack of the Clones! HELP ME! :(

    ReplyDelete
  103. but the ballroom scene in it was really good, (when they first met)
    i was all like AAAAAWWWWWW :P

    ReplyDelete
  104. I haven't watched that bit yet... I don't like love films because I HATE THEM! But I've only watched up to when that crazy woman is running around the house shouting Juliet and then she looks like an Egyptian!

    ReplyDelete
  105. Indiana Jones Temple of Doom.



    Do you know Indiana Jones' real name (in the film, not the actor) is Henry Jones Jr?

    And that Harrison Ford (Indiana Jones) also played Han Solo in Star Wars?

    ReplyDelete
  106. oh, i laughed at that scene....i think that explains why juliet was sticking her head in a tub of water, she was trying to drown herself in order to get away from the crazy woman...if you haven't seen that part just wwait and you'll see it

    oh, and look out for before the ball room scene... romeo and mercutio and his friends are jacked up on drugs and it is hilarious

    ReplyDelete
  107. gah my brother is giving me random updates onn his james bond game

    ReplyDelete
  108. I've seen the bit with the water. Doesn't Romeo kill someone because they killed his friend?

    ReplyDelete
  109. Skulgirl, you mean:





    *makes gun shape with hands and spins across a corner with James Bond theme going in the background*









    GoldenEye.















    *comes behind Skulgirl with the gun shape, points it at her head*



    Pew :P

    ReplyDelete
  110. Chewbacca is just amazing :P but I like R2-D2 or Darth Maul... they are two of the best characters :P

    ReplyDelete
  111. yeah, dragona, but i think that's way later when the capulets (i can't remember their names) come and try to pick a fight with romeo

    ReplyDelete
  112. Ah... I don't get the film but it's funny because of the fighting.

    ReplyDelete
  113. Why are there these random asian dudes shooting and trying to poison Indiana Jones?

    ReplyDelete
  114. i watched the original where its placed in the time it should be where old english actually makes sense and the person that was cast as romeo looks just like zac efron :P

    ReplyDelete
  115. i am mad at Anakin he was such a good Jedi *grumbles curses at lord sidius

    ReplyDelete
  116. Lol Skulgirl, I think he did better as a Sith.

    ReplyDelete
  117. NO! NO HE DID NOT!!! Anakin was my second favorite jedi! *first was Obi-Wan but thats a whol enother story* and he shouldnt have turned to the dark side its not fair!

    ReplyDelete
  118. But he does become good at the end of Return Of The Jedi, he saves Luke from Darth Sidius which is quite good... but he killed himself in the process.

    ReplyDelete
  119. yes exactly if he stayed a Jedi he would have died fighting bad not dying from BECOMING good! it would have been a real heros death

    ReplyDelete
  120. how did this conversation that started out with a person's birthday turn into a star wars debate

    ReplyDelete
  121. My favourite Jedi... Hmm... probably... none of them. I prefer the evil dudes, Darth Maul is the best. Although he gets chopped in half by Obi-Wan Kenobi at the end of Episode I.

    ReplyDelete
  122. I have no idea Tori.




    Brb for a few mins.

    ReplyDelete
  123. i dont know tori but funny thing is my brother is wearing a Darth Maul t-shirt

    ReplyDelete
  124. General Grevious was amazing as well.

    ReplyDelete
  125. Yup... shame he got killed in Episode II by Obi-Wan.

    ReplyDelete
  126. yeah i know wish we could of seen more action with him

    ReplyDelete
  127. Wait... Episode II is the attack of the clones... so it's about them people in blue helmets... is that the one where they kill all the guys with glowsticks? Or is that Episode III? I think it might be episode III...

    ReplyDelete
  128. And would you believe I haven't watched Star Wars in...



    *counts fingers*



    7 years?



    I've played Star Wars Battlefront and that's all I've had to do with Star Wars for 7 years.

    ReplyDelete
  129. i own all six of the movies i could check...just gotta find them first

    ReplyDelete
  130. oh! dragona look up Moosebutter Star Wars its a song and its sooo funny!

    ReplyDelete
