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.

Kony 2012
Hello there,

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.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 4814 Newer› Newest»Val, it's about Kony 2012.
Best weapon in a stationary kitchen: Paper cut, LEMON!
*sighs* Fine, Dylan.
Hi everybody, I have to go now, be back... tomorrow? Donno...
Val, just entered your competition... but I created a new character... If possible, please put me in the actual ivy animosity story... or you could write a short story at the end
ps. I told someone about the Ivy Animosity story, and their gonna read it!!!
Ta.
Derek, Val, Freakfan, Mist, Nixion, and much more. Not too long ago, we found out about the monstrosity called Joseph Kony. In fact, he's not a monster. He's a devil. He will kill for all he's worth. So help the poor children in Africa who are forced against their will. On April 19, we'll all go to sleep like ordinary. And then April 20, the world is changed FOREVER. When you wake up on April 20, you'll see Posters and Fliers EVERYWHERE you look. There will not be a person who doesn't know who Kony is. So let's work for his silence. Who are we to kill him? We have no right. But we have no choice. Kill one person or have over one million killed. So help to save the world from the World's worst, Joseph Kony.
I can't put you in the actual story. And the chances that you are in the short story aren't too great, and if you are, Ivy will certainly have something against you, because I do... Not to mention that I'm still not all that happy with you. So, if you aren't in it, don't feel bad. But I can probably get you in. But you can't be my rival murderer! NO ONE is on the same level of murdererness as me.
Oh, and Jakro? Thanks for getting someone else to read it.
how about a murderer who has tried to kill you?????... but got away because he fell of a cliff?
1st
Oh my dear lord I wrote loads
A murderer who tried to kill Ivy? Jakro, the murderer would have to have the personality of a mentally retarded three year old. Ivy will kick their butt with EXTREME ease.
Or not. Be back in ten
ok... someone who Ivy met and then pushed off a cliff
No one would be stupid enough to say hi to an extremely pale girl who even looks like a raving murderous lunatic.
It's 11:09 oops
thats why Ivy pushed him off a cliff
Oh well
*sings it's the good ship lollipop*
How about, Jakro, your character saw a picture of Ivy and then his friend scared him by screaming "IVY!" but you were standing by a cliff and fell off? That would be funny.
It would be
or... that, used magic to turn himself into a block of ice, survived... and later met Ivy
Or how about the character was doing the bridge-mustard-tomato-sauce prank and they squirted it on Ivy and she killed them?
Robin, I HAVE to put yours in because she wouldn't like Ivy and her bird jokes... *laughs evilly*
Turned himself into a block of ice? What, was he hot?
And even though it doesn't say it in the post I'm adding Zinnia Batty to the story... that way, you'll all have your character meet my friend Amanda in character form.
I would be careful with the bird jokes. She wouldn't think before she hit you, she'd try to seriously injure you if were about robins.
Hiya Zath
But Robin, Ivy is Ivy. She's gonna joke... But don't worry, Anomaly and Sparky are going to be there to stop Ivy from doing anything too bad.
Hi Robin.
I commented on the first page of a post! Yay.
*does a stupid dance*
Uh, Zathract...
-Rubs eyes-
What is that?
Awkward silence part 3
Iunno.
By the way Dylan, I'm not angry with you anymore (in case I didn't tell you already)
I don't want to argue anymore
"Who says I came alone?" Valkyrie said.
Skulduggery bursted into the room and punched Scapegrace in the jaw, and he did a little twirl before dropping.
"What took you so long?" Valkyrie asked angrily.
"I was tying my shoes. You know how dangerous that can be."
"I could have died because you were tying your shoes?"
"No, I was joking. I'm far too graceful for that."
I swear to God, if Ivy even touches a bird in front of Robin she might have a mental fit.
Your comment vanished.
THAT QUOTE WAS WRONG! THOSE ARE IN TWO SEPERATE CHAPTERS!
She won't. She'll only joke around, I promise.
Val...
Yeah okay *shrugs* It's your face
Yes, Dylan?
Zathract, have you seen the whole video that Derek posted?
Joseph Kony (born 18 September 1964[4] in Odek, Uganda[1]) is a Ugandan guerrilla group leader, head of the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), a group engaged in a violent campaign to establish theocratic government based on the Ten Commandments throughout Uganda.[1] The LRA say that God has sent spirits to communicate this mission directly to Kony
-Tear rolls down face- He's not a monster, Derek. He's a devil.
He's not a devil. He's not a monster.
He's human. And that is the scary part.
I remember when Invisible Children came to our school. The presentation had half the auditorium in tears. It changed the attitude of the day for the whole school.
My two cent's worth is don't think about how this will change your life, but how it will change the life of a kid in Africa. I just wrote an essay today about the importance of being able to see differnt points of views. That ability allows us all to know how best to help others. It gives us understanding so that we might try and end injustice. Put yourself in their shoes. How would the termination of Koney affect you if you lived in fear of him?
-Molly, planning to take over my school with Koney 2012
Every time I hear that little boy, Jacob, cry my heart rips apart.
Lemons are evil
Every
Villian
Is
Lemons
I don't know if my blogger is not working or if no one is commenting...
Yes, Robin, that quote from Spongebob is absolutely true.
I gotta go bye bye
Bye Robin
It was on the news in Spongebob it's a fact
See ya
I know it was on the news on Spongebob; I was watching it through his window.
I gtg back to class now. Be back in an hour
You know what made me love Skulduggery even more?
When Derek put the two things I love the most together. Skulduggery Pleasant and Skittles. In Death Bringer.
I've just sent the video to everyone that I know... and you all should to
I thought that part was awesome.
hello??? anyone home???
I shut the comment window...
oh, hows chapter 8 goin'
*sigh*
and... again, I was the last to know...
*shouts at self*
WHY AM I ALWAYS THE LAST TO KNOW THESE THINGS!
...*sigh*
not anyone's fault but my own...
now that I know a new post exists, I'm going. Bye whoever's here!
Agriculture is so boring. I'm still not here though
Chapter eight isn't finished...
Okay, Zathract.. Why do you come on here just to tell us you're going again? It's... stupid, to be honest.
well duh... how unfinished is it?????
Uh... Very? I've been really busy...
Dylan, why do you say things like that... he's just reminding us
Dylan I'm in class...
@val:
hmmm... sounds like you need more Pi
If you're in class, then you should be paying attention to the teacher.
When I say I am not here I mean I basically can't talk
wow........thats relly moving. i had no idea about that. wow
*laughs*
Trust me, not this guy
back..
watching now.
Zathract, is Forest some irritating guy like Freakfan and Jakro used to be?
No he's a guy who comments on Dereks post and leaves
Equally annoying?
No he doesn't talk!
Or she
Jakro, how does your person dress?
Val what is this comp Jakro mentioned??
Hi, Kal!!
I turn 17 today! :D
17?! That's way older than me! I'm only twelve!
And it's no competition, I'm asking people if they wanna be in a story, but it has to be a certain type of character... I have a lot of grumpy ones already...
Servus people.
I'm in school...
*grins*
I'm not working much.
Yeah, Val. Remember when I said how I used drugs, prostitution, got raped when I was ten, my mum died of terminal cancer when I was four, my dad died in a car crash when I was 8? Yeah.
If I were twelve, I wouldn't be able to handle that.
Oh...
I'll make a character you can use when I get home Val
Okie.
@val:
they wear skinny jeans and have a coat with the shell(outside) of a cool snowboard coat, but the inside of a soft, fluffy blanket
I'm in school too Izz
Hehe
mmmm. Edible confetti.
I'm only here to say Servus to everyone.
I gotta go to my next class soon.
I'll be back soon, must see if TEOTW has come yet
*throws bowling ball at window*
YAYYYY!!!!
Sure, Kal! Go to http://valkyriesstories.blogspot.com/2012/03/who-wants-to-be-in-story.html and post a comment!
Auf wiedersehen alle!
HELLO IZZ!
...O.M.G...
I just finished watching the video...
*stares then snaps out of it*
I'm gonna join! BB soon, going to Facebook.
...back but...
going now to do more homework... :P
I haven't seen the vid. What is it about??
A man in Africa who is kidnapping and threatening children and forcing them to kill people... you watch.
SPEAK TO ME!!
No one say anything! I'll tell mist.
It's meant to make people aware of the man and do something about him.
I'm back.
I'm in English now.
a bad... no evil.... n, EXTRIMELY EVIL person in africa
It's about the man, Joseph Kony, who makes girls sex slaves, makes boys part of the LRA, and makes the boys kill their family and other people, and he is the World's Worst criminal. The kids all sleep together, thinking they're safer there than in their own homes. It's really sad. This boy, Jacob, who the video supporter is sponsoring, had his brother's head lacerated off while Jacob watched. And he had to run for his life from them. The video made me cry.
Ive got maths next so I won't be talking for a while.
I'm still here for a bit though
yah.... made me cry to. relly sad.......
And, also, Zath...
On 19th of April, you'll go to sleep ordinarily. But when you wake up on 20th of April... there will not be anywhere you can look without seeing a Kony2012 poster. This isn't happening just here in Sydney. It's happening EVERYWHERE. Kony will be infamous for his wrong doings, and we will bring him down with such force, he will not get back up.
YES EXZAKTLY!!!!!!!!!

hey, I'm doing it too
sorry Jakro.
Yeah. Mist, if you want to be in Jakro's story, you can too.
this pizza is a bit... dry...
um... hello?
Hello???
Derek~ thanks for posting this. I am determined... this is truly inspiring.... :D
This was posted all over my Facebook. It's impossible to not have seen this video already with all of the social media coverage it's been getting. Kony makes me so angry. He is an embarrassment to his religion.
Damn, that video was intense...
Yeah, it was... Hi guys! :D
sorry, it's just that... I was beginning to wonder if everyone had left. :P But you guys came.
Actually, I have to leave now... bye!
Sorry again.
I really thought the video was important, so I went to Facebook and liked them. Now I'm trying to find out how I can donate...
Bye then.
going now. need to do homework, still... i'm here though... checking in at times.
Hi Lavender. I don't think we've met. I'm Fly :)
And yeah, this video is pretty intense.
Hi Fly. Yeah, I'm Lavender. But it's okay if you call me Hope. :) I don't mind.
Sorry. I was doing homework, as you probably noticed.
this is insane. it's horrible that no one knew about kony until now. these are the people, like hitler, who need to be stopped before it is too late. I hope our government doesn't bail on this; we need to act.
VAL! COME ONLINE! NOW!
*sigh*
Hi Dylan.
... what? I got first? again?
...NO WAY! :D THAT IS SO COOL!
No, I got first. It just did a glitch...
I'm here. I came online.
*goes to email so I can see all comments on my blog* AGH! SO MANY CHARACTERS!
My prayers were answered. 8)
Well, not so much my prayers as my random yell-outs that annoy people...
More or less. :D
okay. dedication time.
I dedicate this page to:
1) Dylan, for being the one who got me in first in the first place.
2) Val, for being here now.
3) Star, Sparky, Eve, Mist, Fly, Jakro, Jo, Thrust, and Flame, even though they're not on at the moment.
No, I just have nick of time timing. Because all ninjas do. Why do you need me on?
And me again because it's mah birthday. :D
Here's my cake emote:
(^) LIKE IT? Me too. Shucks. Yes, I work out. Really? No. Okay, sure.
*giggles*
Val! I got first! The second day in a row! :D
YES! I WAS IN THE DEDICATION!
*thinks* I wonder how many dedications I've been in... Er... Uh... A lot.
VAL!!!!!!
