Kony 2012
Hello there,
Do you have half an hour to spare? This doesn't have anything to do with me or my books. This has to do with changing the world. This has to do with helping people you've never met. At the end of the half hour, you don't have to do anything. You don't have to donate, or sign, or even share the video. You can if you want, but you don't have to. I'd just like you to KNOW. I'd like us all to be a part of this, to know what's going on in the world and to know that there are people who are determined to make a change. And I'd just like you to know the name Joseph Kony, who is more of a monster than I could ever create in my writing.

Did you like my pathetic excuse for a fork?
It was hilarious. My brother woke up because I was laughing so hard.
*laughs* I never really had a good look at a fork before. Sent my pic. It was just as pathetic as the fork.
I guessed your shovel straight away.:)
Ok, I'll check. :)
Yeah, it wasn't a very hard one.

Pretty please with die on top???
GO! bananas. GO! GO! bananas. GO! bananas. GO! GO! bananas. GO! bananas. GO! GO! bananas.
I've had that stuck in my head all day. It's from this sign to sing thing my brother and sister do in school. They sing these mad songs and do the sign language to match. Like, GO! bananas GO! GO! bananas.
Hi blue!
GO! bananas. GO! GO! bananas.
hi did u get my email about me having to reset my password cause the STUPID BLOG WOULDNT LET ME IN!! just kidding i love you blog
*hums*
Since my comments were disappearing last night, i would just like to say that THE ARTEMIS FOWL BOOKS ROCK! and they are some of THE BEST BOOKS EVER!!!!!!!!
*makes a angry face!*
I think u are a little obsessed with reading
No . . . I'm on a comp. It doesn't notifie me. *checks email.
Btw, you do NOT want to disagree with me over books.
like your profile pic btw, did u edit it?
I can get very protective. eg. blue chucking books in the bin.
I worked out a while ago that eg. means example given.
hmmm *gazes*
Yep! I edited it! Originally it was a full length tanith with ghastlty, skulduggery and valkyrie. AND it was all black and white. Well, actually it was mostly grey. Took me hours. It's the best one i've ever done.
awesome *smiles*
sorry im a bit down at the moment
DONT ask me why
What do you mean, it's not letting you log on?????
dm..... i had to reset my password
*sighs*
*wonderrs why blue is feeling down*
Blue, i have noticed you are feeling down. I'm not asking you anything, but would you like to tell me why?
Actually, scrape that. BLUE! TELL ME WHY YOU ARE FEELING DOWN! THIS ISN'T ASKING, THIS IS ORDERING!
do you think i should change my name to blackbird??
well.... a lot of things have been happening, some little things that just get to me
WHAT PASSWORD???
I always stay logged in, unless i purposefully log out. This log in thing keeps me logged in on all off blogger.
Brb
i hand dedication rights over to star *hands dedication over*
star *throws dedication*
hi robin!
@star TAKE THE DAMN DEDICATION!
Heya Blue
hi!!!!:)
how are you?
I'm good you
cool pic btw
Y'alright Star
thanks :) *throws dedication to star* HURRY UP! im having 2nd thoughts :)
*stares* O.O
WHAT?????
I GET DED RIGHTS??????
THANK YOU SO MUCH, BLUE!!!!!!! *hugs and gives giant ip dip sky blue lollipop*
I dedicate this page to zathract's parents, for being nice and letting him come on here! A lot of people's parents wouldn't be as understanding!
Nice pic blue!
Hi robin!
I don't get why people's parents DON'T let them here
my mum gets mad at me if im on too much... iv g2g bye
Byebye
I go too au revoir
I do.
I mean, think of facebook. You could be talking to absolutrly anyone. People could pretend to be your friend just because they're crazy stalkers. They don't realise that here is safer. Plus . . . You know, well, we have people commiting suicide and a lot of depressed people who come on here to escape the real world. I am not saying that's a bad thing, not aat all. But parents could not want to expose their kids to that sort of enviroment. Like, my ten-year-old sister occasionally reads over my shoulder. Often i don't mind it. But, some subjects we discuss i don't really want her to see. This must be how a parent feels. If she got a blogger account she could read absolutlely anything, and . . . I want to protect her innocene.
*frowns* DID MY COMMENT JUST DISAPPEAR???
THis isn't fair! I'm not even on my phone!
On my disappeared comment, i said, bye blue.
Hello???
Oh. Bye robin.
Today, i shall start writing that story of mine. *wiats for applause*
Oh yeah . . . I just remembered, you can't get applause with no-one to give it . . .
Still here btw.
OH NO!!!!!!!
I JUST DISCOVERED A PIE!!!!!!!
AND IT WASN'T PIE FLAVOURED!!!!!!!
*hears gasps of horror from all around*
Filling up a page with a load of nonsense isn't as easy as it looks you know . . .
*frowns*
I've changed my mind. I can't start the story today.
I have to do a bit of planning first . . .
I did a load today already. In school. I ended up not knowing what the teacher was saying half the time . . .
Character familiarisation. Tjhat's what it's called.
Going in 5, people.
*sighs* Oh, WHY do i have to take my brother to cub camp . . .
We have to drive him to it, see.
Caterpillas are going to drive the koalas to extinction.
Marshmellows will start the end of the world.
Not staying, morning for me... still have school...Star, where you there last night? or...um... yesterday...? It was last night for me...
Hi by the way. :P
Number gark was late. He was meant to be after number five. But he was late, so eight and four killed him. That is why nobody has heard of number gark.
I read all the comments, lavender.
I read what happened.
Oh, and, HIIIIII!
so... you um... read about... Dylan?
I'm not sure... still a bit freaked out...
My capital I's look like l's.
IIIIIIIiiiiii LLLLLLLLlllllll
:S
*staggers in*
*nods* Yep, they are the same. Ii Ll.
I raed it, lavender. Dylan is a jerk sometimes.
Gtg. Hopefully bb pretty soon.
Star, ill write the profile when I'm not half asleep and at a reasonable hour.
Hi Mist... I have school. Sorry, couldn't stay if I wanted to... Bye!
Hi zathract!
Yes! Nagier's profile please! Plus, dd you see, i dedicated this page to your parents?
Bye, people!
Yeah, thanks for that, Star. Bye!
Hope, it's half past four am here so if I suddenly stop talking, I've probably fallen asleep again. Sorry.
...Is there no one?
Is it too late to say, 'Hi Sparky'?
Hi Sparky!
Hi Lav!!!
*hugs*
*hugs back*
I'm making a story to post on my blog... I'm going to publish it tonight, for me. But you're always on at my night time. So no worries. :)
Last night, I thought of some things... I thought of a lot actually... one thing I thought of was what Dylan said... I'm still a bit freaked out about it... :S
But another was a Poem for friends... a type of poem that I keep forgetting the name of. I'm going to post a comment of it.
Also, I couldn't fall asleep till 4 in the morning, I was thinking...
Friends are:
Funny
Real
Interesting... :P
Endless
Nice
Daring, unless you want to be Down-to-Earth, which I think you're not... :P
and the letter that makes you have more than one...
Special :)
...Now I think I'm just talking to myself... :S
Acrostic.
I love it.
*hugs Lav*
Except that I need to go.
Bye!
Okay, Sparky! Bye!
Hi Blue! If you're still here...
Never mind...
...Hello?
Gah! I miss everyone by two minutes! Always! ...blah...
Hi Sparky, if you're still there.
Okay, two minutes or more...
I'm still here btw, um, sort of. Now typing a post for my blog... will be distant... should have given the warning a little earlier. Sorry.
Hi again Star!
Yes, only one minute behind that time! :P
I'm typing a story now... to post on my blog... I know I should be doing school work, but this is important to me to try to finish this by tonight...
So, tecnically, number gark is five and a half.
Yeah. Gark rocks.
Who's Gark?
I need to get on with the story I'M meant to be writing.
But i have to familiarise myself with the characters first.
Hi!
Star! This is a poem I made for my friends of blogland. Sparky said it's called an Acrostic poem.
Friends are:
F:funny
R: real
I: interesting... :P
E: endless
N: nice
D: daring, unless you want to be Down-to-Earth, which I think you're not... :P
and the letter that makes you have more than one...
S is for special :)
*sighs* NUMBER gark.
Gark was meant to be the number in between five and six, but he came late, so he ended up betweeen seven and eight. Six and eight then beat him up and made him go away. So nobody has heard of number gark but believe me, he exists.
Yes, i made all that up . . . I like doing that kind of crazy stuff.
Thank you!
YES, daring. Not down-to-earth!
I think it IS called an acrostic poem. The name rings a bell.
:P The down to earth thing was a half joke anyway. I thought this up last night...
*mutters*
and last night, i didn't sleep much...
My thoughts were going crazy! They kept me up MOST of the night.
Last night, i was up late because i really wanted to finish my book before today so i could take it back to the library and my sister would stop yelling at me because she was desparate to read the next one.
I got it out today. Me and my sister love the same books.
They were the artemis fowl books. They are epic:)
No. Way! I have all the Artemis Fowl books too, and they ARE awesome! :D
My thoughts are always crazy. I have a weird brain. I can't think properly unless i am fiddling or WALKING or something. My brain often makes my feet keep tapping the ground when i'm not walking. It freqaks me out a bit.
Gtg bb in 15
I think there's going to be another one, the last one, coming out soon. Right? I think...
YES! THEY ARE THE BEST BOOKS EVER WITH PERHAPS TWO EXCEPTIONS!!!
Oh. Okay, see you in a bit then.
Oops, you didn't leave yet... :P
Well, maybe now you did... hehe. :P
*sigh*
I think I'm just going to say no anyway, because I keep commenting late. Like I said before, I'm distant.
I was gone thirteen minutes. That means i am back two minutes early.
...you here still Star?
My sister is annoying me.
And when i wrote that she just shouted OY!
And when i wrote that she screamd.
And when i wrote that she laughed.
I think she's doing it on purpose.
And when i wrote that she said: "No I'm not! You meanie!"
I am going to ignore her now.
And she keeps on correcting my spellings.
And she keeps talking in my ear.
And she has a taken name. Dark.
DARK, WILL YOU GO FINISH THAT BOOK ALREADY!
And now i sound american and my sister is telling me i don't make sense.
I do. It's just american.
Back from school
Yes lavender. I am. I was just writing a long omment abou thow anno9ying my sister is.
DARK, I DON'T CARE ABOUT MY SPELLING, K???
AND CAN YOU STOP TALKING TO ME!!!!!
...can you help me with something? I'm completely unsure if I should go through with this story of mine... It's not as good as you might think...
*looks down at my feet*
it's- it's hard to explain and I want to post it... but then I don't. I'm still typing it, and still will, but I don't know if I should POST it... I'm using capital letters as italics... faster to do that...
*still looking at my feet*
Hi zafira!
DARK, WILL YOU JUST SHUT UP!
I do that too lavender. The cps italics thing i mean.
Yes. Post it. People's stories are usually better than they think they are. It has been proved. Ask my geography teacher.
I liked your last bit of story. Post it.
But- but that's the thing... It's not the story I was making earlier... it's a completely different one...
*hiding my face behind curtain of hair, still looking down*
and I don't think you would want to read it... it- it's not- not so good...
Hiya Star
I-I just don't know... If you read it, if i post it... you might see me in a different way...
I thought that. Whatever the story, people's writing style is so similar. You know the artemis fowl books? I once read a book called the wish list by the same author and the whole . . . story . . . was so similar it really freaked me out. There was this one character and he just had to be more than a copy of foaly. He practically WAS foaly. His personality was just . . . SOOOOO similar.
So anyway. Whatever the story, you wrote it. It will be round about as good as, probs. I know this from experience.
Valkyrie. Skulduggery. Zathract. Sparky. They all have different sides.
But i know that's not what you mean . . . Well, put it this way. When skulduggery found out china helped kill his family, he saw ehr in a whole new light. But we don't think any less of her. So long as you haven't been murdering anyone i know, i don't mind about seeing you in a different way. I like to know about people. I'm your friend. And loads of other people on here aree too and will take EXACTLY the same view as me.
... it-
never mind... maybe I WILL let you see it... maybe then, you will know that I was right... that you will look at me differently...
I'm going to keep writing now... please just know, when you finally read it, that this is as hard for me to type, as it was for me in the story...
you'll know what that means when you read it... I'm going to my own blog now... Will be VERY distant.
What's happening?
K lavender.
I'm not saying i won't view you differently, because always try my best not to lie. But i promise i won't view you in a bad way.
WHAT IS HAPPENING?
@gab: Lavender has written summat and she says that if she posts it we'll all view her differently.
I need to get working on that story of mine . . . Or the people who are going to be in it will be very annoyed at me . . .
hMM. tHAT'S OKAY lAVENDER.
i TREAT PEOPLE here equally.
What's with the caps lock that you always do?
Why deos the blog format keep changing? It's annoying.
It hasn't changed, btw. I was just saying.
sORRY for the caps cause I cant be bothered taking it off..
I don't know I don't like the format before this. It was annoying..
I'm in hospital...
I don't treat people here equally. I treat all new people here equally. Then, i treat them according to what i know about the.
Like, i'm not exactly gonna treat crucify the same as johanna, am i?
Sorry for using johanna. She was just a name that sprang to mind.
I talked to my sister irl for once new record
Um, Dylan is in the hospital?
You can't have real long display names on this format thoug.
@dylan: *looks alarmed* Golden god, what did you DO to yourself?
Hi zafira!
I.. you... don't want to know.
Dylan!!! You didn't? Did you? I read the comments since I left yesterday... Did you?
I... tried...
I was just saying that I treat people here equally
Because I don't. I was lying. But I'm not mean...No one had just given me a good reason to be nice.
*shouts*
NO! NO! NO NO NO NO!
Dylan? WHY???
You can't tell us you're in hospital and then not tell us why!
You could be dying! If you are, some of us care about these things you know, and if you aren't, then we're getting all alarmed for nothing, which is a waste of good emotion!
. . . How about you just tell us whether you're dying or not?
I don't know. But this is the eighth time, and God won't let me go.
I have three cracked ribs, a shattered knee and a broken ankle.
He said he was going to try to kill himself last night, to anyone who's reading. I didn't think he WOULD!
Dylan said he was gonna kill himself . . .
DYLAN, DID YOU TRY AND COMMIT SUICIDE????
*tries to hide computer screen from view of parents*
Omg....omg...omg
WHY???
*starts shaking*
Yeahh..
Just because I don't like you, doesn't mean I don't care about your well being.
Please answer the question. Why?
Hmm... and why would you do that?
Because I'd lost both my parents, and yesterday was the date my mum died.
DYLAN!!!!!!
IF YOU COMMIT SUIDE, WHO WILL CURE CANCER AND AIDS AND ACHIEVE WORLD PEACE?????
DON'T THINK OF YOURSELF, THINK OF HOW THE WORLD WILL SUFFER WITHOUT YOU!!!!
Star, the world isn't dependent on me.
Oh. So who's looking after you?
The doctors, and my forstermum. My forsterdad is in New Zealand.
He's coming tomorrow.
*speaks softly*
...I can understand that must be hard for you, Dylan. But just because you're parents are gone, doesn't mean you should try to kill yourself to be with them...
Please don't comment, or leave. I have more things to say...
NOW NO OFFENSE, SUICIDAL PEOPLE, BUT COMMITING SUICIDE IS JUST SUCH A SELFISH THING TO DO.
I KNOW SPARKY AGREES WITH ME.
IF YOUR MUM'S DEATH UPSET YOU SO MUCH, I WOULD'VE THOUGHT YOU'D DO ANYTHING TO STOP OTHER PEOPLE HAVING TO EXPERIENCE THAT PAIN!
ALTHOUGH YOU AREN'T OUR MOTHERS, SO IT WOULDN'T BE SO EXTREME, BUT STILL.
Bloody hell.....dont try to kill yourself it isnt worth it. Life can only get better not worse
Dylan, I wasn't going to come back until next week. But still. We've all been through some bad stuff. Yes we all want to do that sometimes buy don't. We care about you here. We're your friends. Please don't. *hugs Dylan*
This will probably disappear BTW.
Dylan, you don't know about the afterlife... If you try to kill yourself, you will end up in a worse pace than that of your parents. If you die naturally, then there is a better chance of you seeing them when you die...
*i'm really shaking btw, as I type*
I jumped off of a thirty-metre building, and I'm STILL alive. You wouldn't understand, Star.
Killing yourself won't achieve anything.
please don't ask how I know this...
THE WORLD DOES CARE ABOUT YOU. THE WORLD CARES ABOUT EVERYONE. IF THE WORLD DOESN'T LIKE SOMEONE, IT INSURES THEY DIE AT BIRTH. EVERYONE ON THE PLANET IS HERE FOR A REASON, AND THEY ARE ALL VALUABLE ADDITIONS TO THIS WORLD. THE WORLD MUST HAVE BELIEVED YOU WERE WORTH SOMETHING DYLAN, OR YOU WOULD HAVE SUCEEDED.
Dylan, I know how you feel. I've tried to do it too. Please don't. It only makes stuff worse.
but it's true... If you kill yourself, you will not be able to see your parents. You will end up in Hell...
*btw, I don't like using that word, normally*
DO NOT JUDGE OR CRITICISE ME!!
If you want to be with your parents, then you have to live your life to the fullest. Not cut it short.
End up in hell? No. Hell is for people who have continuously done awful things in their life, and not gone to reconciliation to be forgiven of their sins. I go to reconciliation each week.
*realsies i'm not angry anymore and turns off caps lock*
Dylan, lavender is right. Live a good life, and you might get to see them again. Dont, and you might be punished in the afterlife.
Lynxia is also right. Most people here have been through bad stuff. Sorry for tellign people this shadow, but lynxia's parents are dead and she happens to be still alive.
You will Dylan dont do it
None of you understand.
...I- I'm sorry...
*looks back down at my feet again*
I made it worse, didn't I?
I'm sorry... I always make it worse!
I- I'm gonna go...
