«Oldest ‹Older 3801 – 4000 of 4840 Newer› Newest»BUT YOU CAN HAVE A CUPCAKE! *holds out a box of cookie monster cupcakes to Sparky*
Mel, I would, but...
Okay. Truth time.
I'm reading about four things write now, and I'm also following several stories by people on here.
I haven't been getting enough sleep lately, which is entirely my fault.
And...
Even though I'm sure once I start reading them, I won't stop, the length of your chapters appear very daunting.
Feel free to be angry at me.
*polishes Banana Statue* I am Star Inkbright, the Enemy of the Llamas and the Loyal Inky Octopus Servant of the Banana Lord. I upgraded myself from Star Inkbright, the Inky Octopus Girl and the Enemy of the Llamas. I'm thinking of upgrading Eve to Banana Queen, instead of Banana Lord; in which case, I'll have to change my title slightly as well.
I'm not hungry.
DAUNTLESS!!!! *is suffering from the affer-effects of Divergent*
Has anybody ever read Divergent? S'a good book. I need to read the second one . . .
Okay, then. *throws away cupcakes*
Hmm...
SPEECH TIME!
Speech you?
Can I be honest as well Sparks?
I was very frightened of the length of my chapters too.
Look no pressure, the story isn't going anywhere and if you were ever bored one day after doing all your reading and catching up with your sleep.
It's always gonna be there for you.
Oh goodie...
Thanks Mel.
*hands out bananas to everyone but Sparky with a reminder that a prayer to Eve must be made before consumption*
I know you don't like bananas, Sparky, plus you're not hungrey - but you can pray anyway, if you want :)
I'm good, thanks...
I'll be right backkkkkkk. I have to go upstairs, out of everyone's way. I can also then write a nice speech. ^_^ NOT TO MENTION WRITE MY LATEST STORY. I finally have a name for my latest protagonist!;D
ANDDDDDDDDD I have the greatest idea for a dedication EVER! x3
Let Lu get first then!
DAST IST GUT!!!
Will do! I hate deding
*dedding
I hate being bad at it...
*grins*
I love dedicating! I've got so much to be thankful for. We ALL have so much to be thankful for! We just don't realise it...
AND I THINK I MAY HAVE JUST HAD THE BIGGEST EGO BOOST I HAVE EVER HAD EVER.
*wonders*
Was that me...?
DAST IST SEHR GUT.
Sparky, you're amazing at dedications!
AND YES. Yes it was you!
Yay! It was me!
Yay! *has a tea party*
AUNTIES WOODEN LEG.
AUNTIES WOODEN LEG
WE'LL PAINT IT RED AND CALL IT FRED, AUNTIES WOODEN LEG.
*drinks tea*
I want a clean cup. *moves around the table and sits down again in front of a clean cup*
*puts on Loki helmet after stealing it from whoever had it last*
*sits quietly and hums*
*gasps* YOU STOLE LYNXIA'S LOKI HELMET! *snatchs it off L and buries it ready to give to Lynxia when I next see her*
......*takes out Link's hat and places it on her head*
MY HAT.
*nods and drinks more tea*
YOUR HAT.
Well, Links' hat. *returns from my place where I bury things, things usually being bananas*
...
Link's hat?
Is Navi in there?
*Link's
*looks around*
Yes, Navi is here.
Glad it's not Tatl or Tael. I'd cry. They're cool, just a tad annoying. *grins*
*pulls out fairy slingshot and aims for Navi*
NOT NAVI! *tackles Sparky*
Oof!
I wasn't gonna shoot, I swear!
Navi is too awesome. But if you see the skullkid you can shoot him! He's so annoying.
What about a Gerudo?
Which Zelda games have you played?
PRETTY MUCH ALL OF THEM.
On Ocarina Of Time you can shoot Gerudos with arrows and they die! It's amazing! x3
I think Majora's Mask may be my favourite, though. I adore being a Zora! And a Goron. Deku Scrubs are just pains.
I enjoy Minish Cap, too! As well as the new ones for the DS- but you can never beat the GameCube ones!
OOooooooohhhhh! WINDWAKER! That is a great game!
As is Oracle Of Seasons!
I just had a day dream about the Nazis?!
What is going on with my head today?!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well I've only played one.
OCARINA OF TIME!
*pulls out Ocarina and call Epona*
*jumps on her back and rides around*
AAAAAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!
OCARINA OF TIME IS BEAUTIFUL!
Have you not played Skyward Sword or Twilight Princess? THE GRAPHICS FOR THEM ARE AMAZING.
*is a Zelda nerd*
I don't have the right game station for those.
Alas, I only have an N64.
Enough to play Ocarina of Time on.
GERUDO VALLEY.
No jumping.
*laughs*
AS IF.
I have a:
GameCube
Wii
DS
3DS
Gameboy
Gameboy Colour
AND GOD KNOWS WHAT ELSEEEEEEEEEEE.
Are you a gamer?
Just a bit. *grins*
HEY, KAL! *hugs*
. . . :( I have to go now . . . See you soon, people!
BYE, STARRICKLE! *hugs*
Quick, get first!
Bye Inky!
MINE?
MINE?
MINE?
MIIIIIIINEEEEEEEEEEE.
YES! *fistpump*
You guys are amazing.
YAAAAAAAY!
The pleasure of getting first will never fade.
Never ever.
Dedication time!
Another poxy daydream about the Nazis!!!
WHAT IS GOING ON LADS?!
No idea Mel.
HEYYYYYYY!!!
I would like to dedicate to the heart of Blogland. The heart of Blogland - THOB - is the reason Blogland lives. It's how Blogland functions correctly. Without THOB I don't know where we'd be. Probably in the whole depressed phase, or anger phase, again...Without THOB we'd be nowhere. Blogland wouldn't be pleasant. Everyone would be all....Zombie-like and horrible and dead and...It wouldn't be the best of places, to say the least. THOB is someone here, in Blogland. Or at least, that’s what THOB is, to me.
To me, THOB is the glue that holds us together; the sun that shines through the clouds, when everything looks dim. THOB is crucial in Blogland and, personally, I think this person has changed Blogland the most. This person hasn’t just changed Blogland as a place, but Blogland as a society. This person has changed me so much. I used to be so scared about what to say, when I came to Blogland. I was so…On edge about what people thought of me…THOB has changed me for the better. Now I am more confident, I don’t care what anyone thinks. They can say whatever the hell they like about me, because THOB has changed my opinion of myself, too! I shouldn’t care what haters think, they’re just haters. You shouldn’t care what haters think, either. THOB proved to me that everyone is wrong, sometimes. Whether it is about you or about something else, you’re going to be wrong... But if you doubt yourself, you’re wrong about yourself.
An incredibly wise woman once said to me:
What if you have an idol, or a hero, and you found out that they hated themselves, what must they think of you?
This really spoke to me. She made me realise that you shouldn’t hate yourself, because you might have flaws, but they’re a part of you and you should love them just the same. Everyone has imperfections, but it’s those imperfections that make us realise this.
Back to THOB, this same wise woman is THOB, to me. I know that so many of you will probably think differently, but it’s clear to me that the heart of Blogland is our very own Sparky Braginski. When she left, it triggered a downfall in Blogland. The depression phase and the anger phase occurred, Blogland was at the lowest I’d ever known it to be…It was the only time I had a slight disliking towards Blogland. But that was only because I was scared everyone was becoming depressed. I was scared I was going to lose everyone. However, as though she knew we needed her the most, Sparky returned. Sparky suits her so well, because she’s the spark of light that we always need in the dark.
I couldn’t ask for a better friend. Sparky is the most inspirational person I know. I love you all so much, too – never forget that! I mean, Lynx is my Loki/Legolas/Link friend;) and Star is my Blog Sister. Mist always knows how to cheer me up, Eve is generally insane! Val is crazy and amazing. Nix is, well, strange. Em, you’re like a second mother! You’re so maternal and wise. Kal, you don’t understand how glad I am that you returned to Blogland – you’re amazing and I am so glad I met you! I could go on about how much you all mean to me, but I think over five hundred words is more than enough for a dedication…then again….My dedications are usually around six hundred words.
So, to sum it all up, THOB is Sparky Braginski! She’s amazing and I cannot believe how much she has done for me. I’ll forever be in her debt, just as I am in Lynx’s debt. I’ll be seriously in debt, here…*laughs*
Anyone for a Pokémon cupcake? *offers cupcakes*
i doooooo
NOW TO GET BACK TO WRITING UP THIS STORY.
Sorry about how bad they are. DAMN HYPER MOOD.
If I get depressed again, I'll write deds then and just copy and paste them when I can't think of anything, or whatever.
OH, HEY ADRA! *huggles*
HEY LUCE!!!! *hugs*
...THOB?
Aw, geez Lu, I'm choking up here.
That....
Means...
So...
*hugs her*
Much.
THOB. *hugs back and nods at the same time* THOB = The Heart Of Blogland. x3
It took me three reads of that dedication to figure out the acronym THOB.
*hooks thumbs on suspenders* because I'm just that good.
ANd here you are, just saying it. D: Crap. :D
It was a lovely dedication though!!! Soulful!
I did say 'The Heart Of Blogland - THOB'.....I think.
I can barely type, you know.
My vision's gone all blurry...
ALSO:
THANKS! *hugs Adra* You're so sweeeeeetttttt! X3
I'M SO SORRY, SPARKY!
sorry, Sparks!!! Here! *hands 3D glasses from the cinema, only with the lenses popped out*
This will help you in no way whatsoever, but I can guarantee you will look smart.
Happy.
I'm happy.
YAY FOR HAPPINESS.
OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH DEDICATIONS IDEA! x3
I'm planning a surprise party for my mom. Because you're never too old for parties :D
You are such a sweetheart Lu
*blows a kiss*
Thank you
You're welcome, Em! *huggles everyone*
I don't want to do this chapter anymore. It's annoying me.
Just thought I would let you know.
"And then the world blew up, killing everything on Earth. The world rebuilt itself, and life began again, a while later than where I just wrote. And this, lads is where the next chapter begins."
I'd go with that one
Ah here, I'm not near enough as good as that.
Plus if I touch a delete button I'm terrified that someone will tackle me again like Zaf did.
I just don't want to do it. I give up. It can go to hell.
I'm just gonna sit here with my feet up :D
oh DAMN I forgot!!!!!
*raises glass* hear hear!
*hugs back*
Thanks so much, Kal!
*raises glass of water*
Oh where's the fun in water? *raises glass of apple juice* As my brother would say: Apple Juice, the manliest drink in the world.
And then I would laugh at him.
I have posted Chapter 7.
I don't think there was any more I could do to it so I just banged it up.
Go forth and comment!!!
Please and thank you :D
And don't worry Kallie, we will protect Sparky like she was a dragon tear (they are really rare)
I wonder.... why.
Why what Adra?
why a dragon's tear is rare :D Earth seems to have a shortage of them at the moment. Dragons, I mean
Oh a dragon's tear is so rare because they only shed their last tear, their fire tear, when they die.
And a dragon is to be born first, before shedding it's deathbed tear...
Not really, an older dragon has to shed their fire tear first before a new egg can hatch.
Is Kallie still around?
Probably not.
*looks mildly bewildered*
Even... Kal?
I'm still here, by the way. I just became fascinated by the rain...
Ossry dears, my grandma and grandda just arrived. I'll be leaving you!!!
*hugs for all*
Byeee
Byeeeeeee, Adra! *huggles*
Bye Dark!
I am so tempted to take down Chapter 7, I really don't like it.
Though I know everyone else will like it lol
Ah do you know what girls. I'm just moaning at this stage.
Don't mind my tired brain :D
Night all xx
Night Mel!
Night, Mel!
Bye, guys! You're all awesome and I love you all to pieces!
Don't forget to send an e-mail with your votes to ioweyouamug@gmail.com
BYEEEEE! *hugs*
Bye Lu!
I had a dream Dere lived in his blog and it was next to a zoo. I was at the zoo and then Derek posted that he would be going to the boats and I was there and he came and I collapsed while eating some sort of sandwich and Derek had super long hair. o.O
...What?
Anyone on?
Hello Em.
Hey Sparky... what's going on?
Nothing much.
Okay, well I wbd as I'm continueing writing.
Okee.
To everyone out there, my next chapter is almost done but I can't post it till I get a reply from one of the characters. Thank you for your patience.
Lonely...
No one?
Nix, Sparky the next chapter is up!
As Derek says, consume.
Hello.
Hi Sparky
Distant, I'm organising things for the competition
What competition Nix?
My one
My blog
You should have entered, but oh, to late
I didn't know! I've been busy! PLEASE!
Oooo, I'm excited.
I'm looking forward to reading it.
And participating.
I'll do what you say and keep with the blog then, maybe i'll be able to participate.
Maybe Helena... maybe...
I commented back, forgot to reply but I commented back, read it.
Breath in and out Hel, in and out. Okay, slightly calmer.
Bye! If the others come on Nix could you please tell them that the next chapter up?
Bye Helena
What's going on here...?
Bye Em!
Well, she's got my character doign things my character wouldn't do, so I pointed that out, then she told me to shut up, yold me what ym character would do, and told me that she will probably kill my character off
HELLO!
Hi Val!
*reads the brief comment conversation*
*my left hand goes to the bridge of my nose subconsciously*
You're both being childish.
Nix, that's what you get for allowing someone to use your character.
If you were still here Em, I'd tell you that, even if it is only a story, people have this thing about taking offence.
One of my favourite fan fictions was stopped because people were too picky about how the author depicted them.
Hi Val...
Hi Sparky... I am so tired... *starts drifting off to sleep* *wakes up and sits up*
No, no... I have to get all this chlorine off me...
Bye bye now, I have to shower
Bye Val!
Bye Val!
Nix, please tell me when you update The Competition.
Any second now Sparky...
YES.
NOW!
First challenge is up now!
Hi! I just realized that I think my bad moods are the sensible ones! That's interesting!
Hi Eve!
http://youbetterhopeyouwin.blogspot.com.au/
Nix, you might want to check your e-mails.
I have a few questions.
Yup!!!!!!! I'm getting there! Let me just finish off these votes
I always have my email open
*superhero pose*
Oh, I'm doing the votes now as well
Lunch bye!
Bye Eve!
*scowls* I don't get it. I ask my mum a simple question and she practically growls "Bella..." as a warning telling me not to ask. And it was a completely innocent question! And then I asked another question to make things easier and she snapped at me, then my sister asked something and she started talking all sweetly! I don't get it! Does everyone suddenly hate me or something? I didn't even do anything wrong!
Hi Val!
On a brighter note, hello again everyone!
Me snuck on
Hi Zaf!
You sound like Cookie Monster
Sneaking on is wonderful, isn't it?
It is xD
*pets Derek-lizard*
*pets giant stuffed hedgehog (Fletcher)*
*pets smaller stuffed hedgehog (also Fletcher*
Okay, back, hello, chihuahua!
*does cartwheel*
I thought Fletcher was a porcupine....
Hey Eve, you saId be that way
WHAT WAY?!
THAT WAY!
WHICH WAY?!
Well, he's considered a porcupine and a hedgehog and a hedgupine (which is what eats Caelan when I draw funny little pictures and I get bored). Earlier I bought two stuffed hedgehogs.
Hi one comment then have to go to lunch.
Yesterday, there was a thunderstorm, and now it's sunny! Odd weather... Ahem, anyway.
I miss you guys so much! Reading your comments make me wish I was there. You get into crazy things sometimes! :D
Been so busy every day! *sigh* It's hard. The things I do and not being here... Don't even have time to go on my computer at all, which makes it harder to read blogs and things. So I'm WAY behind in that and I wish I wasn't so busy...
I guess that's all I wanted to say. Let you know how I'm doing and say I miss you! Cause I do so much! Gotta go now. Byyyyyyeeeeee!!!!!!! <3
THAT WAY!
In my opinion, hedgehogs are cuter :P
Yeah. These little stuffed hedgehogs are pretty adorable...
Bye Lav!
Bye Kitchen!
Hey Eve, Helena put up her new chapter *mutters darkly*
http://skulwholock.blogspot.com.au/2012/07/emperors-realm-chapter-3-wolves-and.html#comment-form
DADADUN DUN DADADUN DADADADADUN
I love having an electric guitarist in the house
Your dark muttering is making me wonder if the chapter is cursed...
IF YOU ARE TESTING OUT HEXES, HELENA, I AM NOT A WILLING GUINEA PIG!
She basically had you acting like an animal, and you're okay with that?
*smiles with sharp teeth* The plot thickens, Nix
What does that mean?
I was thinking about it, and I managed to make it make perfect sense in my head, it's a little sub-story of mine and in not sure what to do with it. But I... Oh wait, it's all sorted out now. Except the "let her prove herself" is quite irrelevant to everything and not something you or your character would say
I am so confused
But can we agree that she got my character wrong?
It's something about my character that I'm not putting in my profilian because I don't want anyone hinting at it or using it in their stories or anything. It's mine. Whether I'm going to write it down on paper or not is up to me, but I'm not...anyway
I...to be honest, I didn't read it properly. But hey, you know your character better than anyone, and you put it in your profile, so it's your decision if she's doing it wrong or not. If you believe she got it wrong and it was actually in your profile and she went against it, I believe you have a right to speak up about it
*is looking at the Most Insane nominees*
*chokes*
...Valmanda?!
Okay
HAHAHAHAHA
...Oh my God, that is the weirdest thing I have EVER read.
Uh... well... that's good, but... yeah... hm
So... We're all being awfully quiet... DID SOMEONE GET EATEN BY A WOLF?
I said something about something personal none of you will get
Um... Okay then.
For those of you that care
http://nobodyisblogging.blogspot.com.au/
*throws oven at Nix* WHAT IS WOW?
WOW
Exclamation: Expressing astonishment or admiration.
Is anyone going to read it?
http://nobodyisblogging.blogspot.com.au/2012/07/well-how-about-that.html#comment-form
I read it.
Yokay
I read it.
And Sparky, YOU SCARED THE CRAP OUTTA ME. Were you here the whole time?!
...Stalker.
Just kidding XD
When I was at Great Wolf Lodge earlier (it's a hotel with lots of things including a huge waterpark) Zoe and her friend Maddy came at the same time I did and while we were waiting in line for a ride I was pointing to everything, explaining some ridiculous way that Caelan could be stalking me from there... XD
Not to mention the fact that we were being stalked by real people too O.o
