First Competition Ends!

Wanna know what I did on my birthday? Do ya? Wanna know what craziness I got up to? Well, first, right, what I did was I started clearing out my office, yeah? But that was only the beginning. Then I started clearing out the kitchen. Then I got bored and played a video game. Then I went back to clearing more stuff. Then I checked the Blog. Then I cleared another room. Then I went to my parents' house for dinner, and it was yummy. Then I came home and my electricity went off. Yay!

Ahem.

Although the day BEFORE that I got to see all my nieces in their Halloween costumes (because I won't be seeing them at Halloween). Rebecca was dressed as a witch. Emily was a bumblebee. Sophie was a pig. And Clara... Clara was a skeleton, because she KNOWS who's going to be giving her the best presents when she's older. When I have pictures, I'll be sure to post them.

And what did I GET for my birthday, you ask? Well... um... okay, see, when I say it aloud, it doesn't sound that impressive, but basically I got some photographs in nice frames...

God that sounds boring.

But I really am the WORST person to buy for, as Laura was complaining to me last night. Everything I want, I pretty much have already- so what is there left to get me except really odd things that I'd never think of? See?

But some of you guys here, and at the Forum and the Facebook page, did all the celebrating for me, which was really nice of you. In particular, I'm thinking of Valkyrie V, who actually had a party with a CAKE. And Val V, I hope you don't mind, but I just HAD to post a pic of it.



I'm not really sure what Polar Bear Girl has to do with Skulduggery, but I like her style nonetheless. These guys really went out of their way to celebrate poor old Skulduggery's deathday, and they are all astonishingly sloppy eaters...


And in other news...

The Ameriminions competition is now over! I have been HUGELY impressed with your entries. They have been cool, atmospheric, creepy, action-packed, sinister, and funny- sometimes all at once! Now I have the quite enjoyable job of going through them all and picking the line that is best suited to the story I want to tell.

A HUGE congratulations to everyone who entered.

*chokes on nothing*

Robin Snowscar said...

*wanders in*

Eve the ROCK said...

Hi Robin! We were just having the most delightful conversation!

Zathract Mist said...

*gives Eve a look*

They WERE scared of me. I beat people up. I used to be the bully. I used to be the person everyone was afraid of. They stopped talking when I came near. The young people even knew not to mess with me. My temper used to control me and no one would change what I thought. They were so scared they wouldn't tell anyone for fear of being hurt.
You have no idea.

Zathract Mist said...

Hi Robin.

Eve the ROCK said...

Okay, i believe you. You must have been very very scary.

If I'm being incredibly annoying, just say the word and I can leave you two to your "I was meaner" battle.

Star Inkbright said...

Hi robin!

You still have a reputation zath. You'rw blog-famous:)

I get what you mean about Luciana and 'the real you', L. But Luciana is still you. She's a different part of you.

Zathract Mist said...

I know that that's not true. I know you don't believe that.

After all, what PROOF do I have?

Robin Snowscar said...

*raises eyebrow* So it would seem

Luciana said...

It has taken me eleven years to find my reason, eleven years and a lot of pain. If you cam find just one thing that makes life worthwhile, then hold onto that. Because that one thing could save your life and maybe one day you'll be thankful you're still here. I know I'm glad I am still here, if I wasn't I'd never have met you guys, or have started writing or be anywhere.
I know it's nice for people to read you, but you get the same thing if you're loved. Luciana is well liked, though very few know who she is. This authority she now has is used to help others, although I cannot redeem myself from ny past, I can change for the better. You should realise thus, before things go too far...

Star Inkbright said...

*shrugs* i don't care how you were mean before. You're right, i probably have no idea. Whatever. People-wise, i tend to focus on the here and now.

Eve the ROCK said...

*grins* Thsts right, you have none. You're sweet, kind, and caring. Although you HAVE been a bit of a jerk.

So you're a jerky teddy bear.

*laughs*

I see no proof there. :D

Zathract Mist said...

I had a reason.

Even after I thought I had changed, I managed to turn that reason into just another person I would hurt. And then I lost that reason.

Boom.

Eve the ROCK said...

Msd from now and onnwards

Zathract Mist said...

*laughs and shakes head at Eve*

And then there's that one thing I'm still trying to figure out...

And it's not what you think it is, Eve.

...

*listens to Burried Alive*

I give up. L wins. I'll try. Whatever.

Eve the ROCK said...

I gave up thinking a long time ago. What is it?

Zathract Mist said...

Something either very complicated or something that is really nothing.
I'm not sure you want to know.

Robin Snowscar said...

*twiddles thumbs*

Luciana said...

I had a reason. I had Sam, but I was such a bitch and only caused him pain that we're barely friends, anymore. All I have left now, is myself. So I decided to turn myself into my reason for living. I deserve to be hurt and so I made sure no-one but myself would be hurt, this way...But even the best laid plans of mice and men often go askew...People still get hurt, because I can't control myself. I hurt people mentally and physically, I can't help it...I revert to my old ways, sometimes. Because it's all I have ever known. By making myself my reason less people are hurt and I think that death is too good for me...

Living on is the torture I deserve, but I thought by recreating myself and becoming someone new I could start again, but the pain won't go away. All I focus on now is trying to change. Become a better person, in the future. Let myself be the one to get hurt, no-one else..

Luciana said...

LOL. I WIN. I ALWAYS WIN. I ALWAYS GET MY WAY.

Well...Usually...... *grins*

NOW I SHOULD BE DOING HOMEWORK....

Robin Snowscar said...

Of mice and men reference *snorts*

Luciana said...

Oh and hello, Robin!

I get too engrossed in things such as this... :)

Eve the ROCK said...

I want to know everything. Tell moi.

Eve the ROCK said...

Do your homework! *cracks whip*

Star Inkbright said...

That's really noble of you L:)

Luciana said...

I have to read Of Mice And Men, again. And I think you will find that it is a reference to the poem To A Mouse, which is where the name Of Mice And Men came from.

Robin Snowscar said...

I noticed Luciana, as do I but I get horrible rather than supportive so I just keep out of them *smiles a little*

Zathract Mist said...

And I'm not entirely sure I want to tell you.

...Eh, I already am seen like an idiot by everyone here, I have nothing to lose.

*points to email*

Luciana said...

I can vary...I tend to have some rather heated arguments, sometimes...But I have yet to lose an argument, just as I have yet to lose a mind game. *grins*

Star Inkbright said...

Apparently we'll do Of Mice and Men when we're older. I've already read about a million posters and stuff about it. Work up on the wall next to classrooms

Robin Snowscar said...

*raises eyebrow* I don't consider you an idiot Zath.

Robin Snowscar said...

Ah Luciana let us not argue then *sly grin*

Luciana said...

Curley's wife, victim or tart?
^We had to do that as a controlled assessment and I was the only person who said victim and then I got an A*, too. x3 See, it's good to be different...
But I need to re-read that book, I have an exam on it next week and I haven't read it in over a year..

Eve the ROCK said...

Kay.

*waits for emailian*

Robin Snowscar said...

I did a presentation on that same topic Luciana, I said both but her victim nature contributed to her becoming a tart

Luciana said...

I consider Mist an idiot. Because he doesn't believe that I am right, when I know I am...*glares*

Robin Snowscar said...

*grins*

Luciana said...

Robin.......I SAID THE SAME THING.........I argued that she was a victim, which made her look like a tart..

Eve the ROCK said...

I think everyone's an idiot right now.

Including Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmonty!

Zathract Mist said...

Sent.

I am an idiot, Robin. So listen to L.

Luciana said...

You should all listen to me. Because...Wait, am I the oldest?

Robin Snowscar said...

I do not think you are an idiot Zathract, truly, I do not.

Funny, huh L

Robin Snowscar said...

I don't know L are you?

Luciana said...

I don't know...I was born on the 18th November 1996.

Are any of you older than me?

Star Inkbright said...

I know you're older than me and zath and eve. Dunno about robin.

Robin Snowscar said...

*shakes head* You're 5 months older than me

Luciana said...

Yay. I am the oldest. :3

Who would you say is the most mature..?

Sorry, procrastinating. X3

Eve the ROCK said...

Replied.

Star Inkbright said...

You're 22 months older than me L.

2 months under 2 years.

Robin Snowscar said...

I don't know Luciana

Eve the ROCK said...

I'm the maturest!!!!! Memememe!!!

*spins*

Robin Snowscar said...

Luciana how do you say your name?

Luciana said...

I don't know how to explain it...
Lucy-arna..
I think that makes sense..

Eve the ROCK said...

How do you say Scáth?

Luciana said...

I am unsure of that, Eve...Google translate it, that'll tell you how to pronounce it...I don't know how to explain how you pronounce Scáth, t'is Gaelic. :3

Robin Snowscar said...

'nods* That how I say it but my friend was saying Looshana *makes face*

Robin Snowscar said...

Hi Val *waves*

Eve the ROCK said...

Oooookeh.

Hi Valereno!

Zathract Mist said...

*nods*

Replied.

Luciana said...

Hello, Val! *waves*

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Luciana said...

Looshana, that's pretty cool...*grins*

Eve the ROCK said...

Replied

Luciana said...

Hello, Rim! *waves*


And Eve, it's just pronounced Scath, I think. :')

Eve the ROCK said...

Hi Rim!

Eve the ROCK said...

Okay, that's how I've been pronouncing it, so that's gooooood.

Rim. said...

Hi guys!! *waves* Have any of you got Opuss?

Eve the ROCK said...

Hmm.

...

Do you think I should show a picture of moi sometime soon?

Robin Snowscar said...

I'm eating apple and cheese

Luciana said...

I don't even pronounce my own name correctly, sometimes. Usually due to laughing, though. *laughs at self*

Robin Snowscar said...

Hi Rim, up to you Eve

Luciana said...

I think you should, Eve! Then we can all convince you that you really are pretty!

Robin Snowscar said...

I will too, if you want Eve

Robin Snowscar said...

Oh and no Rim, sorry

Luciana said...

I'm not convincing you, on my own! :) I am too busy to convince people of things...The amount of people I convince things like this, every day... *grins*


I shall be back soon, I have to go for tea! Eve, NO DOUBTING YOURSELF.
Mist, you're only an idiot for believing you're an idiot! :P

Star Inkbright said...

Hi val and rim!

*is reading percy jackson and lightnimg thief and has reached the poodle part*

This was the only part in the whole book that made me sister laugh. *shakes head*

Me? I always laugh tons whilst reading this book.

Zathract Mist said...

I would say yes, Eve, but don't take my opinion seriously.

Robin Snowscar said...

*holds bridge of nose*

Zathract Mist said...

That still makes me an idiot, L

Robin Snowscar said...

I'm going to take a break, I can't deal with this kid right now

Rim. said...

I dedicate to old favorite songs. They were once your best song but then you either don't like it or have forgotten to listen to it. If you listen to it years later you remember the reason why you used to like it.
That's the best description I have in me.

Star Inkbright said...

YES, eve.

Zathract Mist said...

Bye Robin.

I won't be here when you get back, don't worry.

Zathract Mist said...

I think Eve vanished.

Zathract Mist said...

And I think I will too.

Bye.

Rim. said...

Maybe she's just choosing a photo.

Luciana said...

Bye, whoever has left...

And Mist, only because you think you're an idiot. My lack of logic is impeccable. ;)

Star Inkbright said...

May the fours be with the leavers

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I'm still here, by the way, just distant

Robin Snowscar said...

I'm back

I dislike people

Luciana said...

Hello, Robin..

Star Inkbright said...

WB robin.

Well, that's okay then, seeing as i'm not a person. I'm an octopus:)

Luciana said...

I'm just a figment...

Robin Snowscar said...

That's probably why I like you guys

Robin Snowscar said...

Laptop is dying, cheerio

Luciana said...

Bye, Robin! *waves*

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Luciana said...

This essay is so god damn annoying! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO WRITE.

Rim. said...

I have been here but I was distant but now I'm going so BYE!!!

Luciana said...

I hate listening to audio books, sometimes...

Luciana said...

Bye, Rim!

Star Inkbright said...

May the fours be with you rim and robin!

Real books > Ebooks > Audio books.

Luciana said...

Real books are tons better! Then audio books, then eBooks, because I cannot stand them.....

Luciana said...

I have an iPod. ^_^ But only a nano, the new one. :'3

Rim. said...

Is that the touch one?? My friend made hers into a watch and brings it to school.

Casually listening to the Hunger Games soundtrack.

Luciana said...

Yeah! That one!! :)

Rim. said...

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Luciana said...

HELLO, VAL! *waves*

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

HI! *waves back*



I'm writing chapter nine of my story, so I might be distant... I also might suddenly leave because I know at some point I'm going out to the store.

Luciana said...

Okay, Val!
Wbd, essay. Msd, it's almost 11pm and tomorrow is Monday, so my mum would freak of she Roy.d out I was doing work, rn...

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Alrighty.




So, what's your essay about?

Luciana said...

Comparing two poems about relationships that go wrong. :3

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Interesting topic for an essay.





I wouldn't really know that much about relationships that go wrong, aside from my divorced parents, but they're always nice and friendly with each other now. And when my friends need advice they always come to me and apparently my advice works... I don't know how, though, on account that I've never been in a relationship...

Luciana said...

I'm pretty good, when it comes to relationships, I've had more than enough. :L :')

Nixion Strange said...

I have a cold. Either a cold, the flu or the plague

Eve the ROCK said...

Try going out into the rain. Thatll help, surely.

Eve the ROCK said...

Hmmmmmm.

Well, whatever you do, stay well away from doctors, nurses, hospitals, medicine and hot soup.

Eve the ROCK said...

OH! I know the actual cure for a cold!!!!

Eve the ROCK said...

*is itching to say what the cure is*

Nixion Strange said...

Eve the ROCK said...

Okay, here's what you do.





























Calm down and make a tissue walrus.

Nixion Strange said...

Eve the ROCK said...

No! Don't leave, I have no one else to talk to!

I won't say it any more. I foot swear.

Nixion Strange said...

You foot swear?

Eve the ROCK said...

*holds out spare foot*

I found it in a hospital room.

Nixion Strange said...

*spits on foot*
It is done. You cannot go back on a foot swear

Nixion Strange said...

never ever for never ever for never ever?

Eve the ROCK said...

Never ever ever.

*throws foot out window*

It is useless now.

*goes looking for another foot*

I hate colds.

Straight to the final four with ya!

Hi Mist!

Eve the ROCK said...

*holds out hand*

Zathract Mist said...

Hi Eve!

*wonders why she is holding out her hand...*

Eve the ROCK said...

*rolls eyes* No, I'm totally not holding out my hand because I wanted to show you what I've collected from various hospitals.

*throws hand at him* It's plastic.

Zathract Mist said...

It's hard to tell.

*sticks the hand on a tree*

Eve the ROCK said...

*reads comments* You think I should?

Zathract Mist said...

I mean...yeah. :P

Eve the ROCK said...

*smiles and nods* Okay then.

Zathract Mist said...

You'll do it?

Eve the ROCK said...

Yeah. I mean, I won't be putting it here, of course, but I might just email it to...a few people...

Zathract Mist said...

*grins*

Okay then.

...Would I be one of those people...?

Eve the ROCK said...

Now how could I say no? You gave me a treehouse. XD

Zathract Mist said...

*laughs*

That I did...

So, hows Cthulhu doing?

Eve the ROCK said...

Cthulhu is hibernating.

Zathract Mist said...

Oh yes, I forgot you said that...

Damn it. Be back in about 20 mins.

Eve the ROCK said...

Bye Mist!

Eve the ROCK said...

You would not believe your eyes,
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

Eve the ROCK said...

*has dragonflies in stomach*

Eve the ROCK said...

And they fill the open air,
And leave teardrops everywhere,
You'd think me rude but I would just stand and, stare...

Eve the ROCK said...

I'd like to make myself believe,
That planet Earth, turns, slow-ly,
It's hard to say I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep,
Coz everything is never as it seems,
When I fall asleep

Eve the ROCK said...

If I got a thousand hugs,
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance

Eve the ROCK said...

A fox trot above my head,
A sock hop beneath my bed,
The disco ball is just hanging by a thread...

Eve the ROCK said...

I'd like to make myself believe,
That planet Earth, turns, slow-ly,
It's hard to say I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep,
Coz everything is never as it seems,
When I fall asleep

Eve the ROCK said...

Please take me away from here...

Zathract Mist said...

Back. Sorry, the traffic was terrible...

Eve the ROCK said...

S'alright. Hi!

...

*doesnt like the dragonflies*

Zathract Mist said...

What's wrong with dragonflies?

Eve the ROCK said...

I was sliding my hand along fences once, and this dragonfly was camoflauging itself on a fence, and.... *shivers with revulsion* I TOUCHED it. I didn't know it was there and I raked my hand across A DRAGONFLY. Plus, they breathe fire.

Eve the ROCK said...

Um....I have the picture.....

Zathract Mist said...

Fair enough. I dont like them either.

Zathract Mist said...

Ah. Okay.

...You dont have to show me if you don't want to, you know...

Eve the ROCK said...

*shrugs* I didnt take a picture for nothing.

Do you wanna see it?

Zathract Mist said...

*nods*
Yes please.

Eve the ROCK said...

Dinner bye!

I'll send it after dinner

Zathract Mist said...

Bye Eve!

*waves*

Nixion Strange said...

Feeling no better
*in the tune of a song*

Eve the ROCK said...

Back!

Nixion Strange said...

Hi Eve

Eve the ROCK said...

Hi Nix!

Did you want to see it too...?

Nixion Strange said...

Yes. See what?

Eve the ROCK said...

How typical of you to say Yes before you know what I'm talking about.

A picture of me.
