Just to let you know that World Book Day is this Thursday (well, it is in this part of the world, anyway) and to celebrate Alex Barclay and myself will be holding two events. The first, in Kildare, is pretty much sold out, but the second one is in Easons in O'Connell Street, Dublin, at 6 PM. We'll be there, talking about... stuff... and books... and writing... and, er... annnnnyway...
Because this is somewhat last minute, I'm not expecting that many people to turn up to the Dublin event, which means it'll be a lot more casual and chatty than usual. If you're interested, get in touch with Easons to reserve a place, and we'll see you there.
Toodles.

This is me being not Irish...nyeh.
Hi anyone!
*tacklehugs everyone*
DAY TWO OF WAITING FOR 1D CONCERT AND MARA IS CURRENTLY DYING.
Derek (if you're there) I have a question. I'm really confuzzled about Cleavers. Are they actual human people or I don't know.
YAY MARA! I hope you have lots and lots of fun and prod Harry Styles!
*hugs back* LUCKY YOU!!!
I remember waiting for my Nickelback concert...I had to wait 3 months for the big day...
I'm pretty sure Cleavers are ordinary humans training in a special Cleaver magic or something...I used to imagine them as giant gollems but now I'm pretty certain they're human...
HI!!! I'm new. Don't bite me, I won't bite you, Don't throw a knife/blade at me because I will throw it back, and I love to do martial arts!

I know where Northampton is! I live near Bedford (if you've heard of it).
Ooo...my birthday is in a few weeks or something.
Aw. Wish I could attend such an intimate event. I wouldn't even need to bring a sign.
This is me living on the complete opposite side of the world...:-( [imitates yawning and falling asleep in school]
Have fun though, you Iriminions who can attend!

Stupid flammable Beetoven music...
I have always shipped Valduggery (as in for quite a few years now) and have no intention to stop, regardless of whether it happens in the books or not. :P
I ship Vilequesse as well, needless to say...
I do not ship Valduggery. So there.
Doctor Who is amazing Clover!
Uh, thanks Fabi and Mara, but Mara I'd rather have fictional characters than Jake Bugg and I love Ed Sheeran more and uh...
THE FABI HAS SPOKEN.
Valduggery is a beautiful ship O.O
BUT I SHIP LARRY STYLINSON MOREEEEEEE
Harralie more though. OBVIOUSLY.
HANEY!
[Laughs]
Harralie, of course. And I've spoken? What did I say? Oh, really, I did? Odd.

Kessie tried to make me a Chinduggery shipper, BUT IT WON'T WORK! HAH!
"I laugh in the face of evil! Ha- OH MY HOLY NANDOS!"

G2g - violin practice
Bye Ieni! *tacklehugs*
I FEEL SO HAPPY ASDFGHJKL; the feels i'm seeing my boys in a few days :')
RELIGIOUS PEOPLE ARE NOT MINDLESS ROBOTS
I don't think people realise that belonging to a religion doesn't automatically make you a mindless drone that thinks exactly the same as everyone else in the religion. People in a religion still have different views and are still human with their own opinions. What do you think will happen if you join a religion? Do you think they brainwash you with their special brainwashing serum? Or do you think your brain just disappears?
Religious Studies annoys me. People ask, "What would a Christian think about this?"
And I think, "Well, it entirely depends on who the Christian is as all Christians think differently, seeing as they're all people and people all have different views. Christians don't all think the same thing, you know."
They're meant to be teaching us how to understand religious people, but they are so not. How teaching us that belonging to a religion makes you a brain-dead robot helps people understand how being religious feels, I have no idea. They don’t exactly allow us to walk around the classroom pretending to be zombies. They mostly expect us to work it out, but seeing as we’ve never been zombies and don’t know how being one feels, that is rather hard.
They teach us about discrimination and stereotyping. They teach us that it is bad. But then they do it themselves. They stereotype religions, say that everyone who belongs to this religion automatically thinks this. ‘This’ doesn’t just mean an aspect of the religion. ‘This’ can be a modern issue that doesn’t involve that religion at all.
They don't tell us how it would feel to be a part of a religion at all. No, so long as we know what religious people are told to believe, that makes it okay. It’s like reading the school rules and expecting to learn how schoolchildren think from them.
Religions are a lot like political parties. If you look at speeches of David Cameron's, you can find out what the Tories are meant to stand for and what one of them thinks. But you have no idea why everyone in the Conservative party chooses to be in it, you have no idea what different views they all have on what their party should be doing. They'll all be in it for different reasons and will all have different views on what the party should be. Same with any political party. Same with any religion. People join religions for different reasons. They aren’t always just bored kids in them because their parents make them be. There are thoughts, feelings, realisations behind it.
TBC.
One boy in my RS class said Christians were stupid for not reacting, that if someone called them a name they should fight back.
He didn’t know that a lot of Christians actually would. Some wouldn’t, some would rise above the insult and ignore it, but some would fight back. How can this be, you might ask, when all Christians believe the same thing? They don’t. They’ve all been told the same thing by God, but they interpret it differently to each other, and some just disobey the rules occasionally. Once again, this is like school rules. You’re meant to obey them all, but rarely does this always happen.
How can people interpret things differently? Well, imagine you were given the phrase “I have climbed a mountain.” Some people could think it meant someone had literally climbed a mountain, using harnesses and ropes and so on. Some could think it meant someone had walked up a big hill, and was exaggerating. Some could think it was metaphorical, and the person who had written the phrase hadn’t literally climbed any mountains, but had mentally overcome great obstacles. Some could think the same, except have a different interpretation of the metaphor.
There are billions of phrases like this in the Bible. Therefore, there are billions and billions of different views of the Bible and of Christianity. An example from Christianity is that most Christians believe that men and women are equal. Some think this means that women should be able to do everything men can, and vice versa. Some think this means they have equal worth, but different roles and different duties.
Also, the Church and the Pope do not speak for all Christians. Another person in my RS class asked that if Christians thought everyone was equal, why did they hate gay people?
Correction. Christians are meant to think everyone is equal. A lot of them don’t, because they’re human and are just as bad as the rest of the humans.
Also, not all Christians “hate gay people.” A lot of Christians, for example me and my mum, are in favour of gay marriage. A lot of Christians, however, believe that marriage is the union of a man and a women and that gay people could be the equivalent of married, just not call it marriage, as it is incorrect use of the word.
Another thing to say. Occasionally I chance upon Christian YouTubers who comment on songs posted on YouTube saying things like “everyone who listens to this will go to hell.” I am sorry, but I do not see how posting comments of this nature is meant to achieve anything at all. If you want people to join your religion, you have to be welcoming, and make them want to be like you. By posting comments undermining the music people like, you are not only angering people and making them hate you, you are giving Christians a bad reputation. Who would want to be a Christian when it meant being like them? Also, who would want to be a Christian if it meant they could no longer listen to the music they liked?
People in general don’t want to join religions. I’ve been talking about Christianity all the way through this speech, but this speech isn’t exclusive to Christianity. Christianity was simply the religion I could say the most about. People do not want to join religions, and people do not like religions, and people are not fans of religious people. And why is that? Mostly because people think that belonging to a religion means you have to think exactly what you are told to think, and also because a lot of religious people are jerks and people don’t want to be like them.
I said before that belonging to a religion was like belonging to a political party. It’s stronger than that; you often have to wear things marking you out as different, and more loyalty is required; but it is similar. You believe you know the best way of living, the best way of doing things, and you think that being in it will benefit you. Unless they’re concealing it, political parties don’t use brainwashing serum, and neither do religions. Just because you believe in something and want to follow it does not mean you suddenly surrender your freedom of thought.
Wbd, homework!
I have to write my French assessment. Joy.
YES! Star! YES! I agree!
Hi, all, btw!
I cannot be bothered with religion today, Star. Sorry, but I am not reading that. :P
"The only god I worship is the Golden one." *nods*

YESSSSSSSSSS. *fistpump* I KNEW I was doing something right somewhere sometime something.

*MARANESS
WOULDN'T IT JUST STAR. *sighs dreamily* AND THANK YOU :D

ERMAGERD ERMAGERD I'M DYING LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL XD
Why we can't be given paper textbooks anymore, I have no idea. It would be much easier and much less fiddly. Online textbooks are more convenient? WTH?
Online textbooks? We don't have those... we have paper textbooks :)
We have paper textbooks for German. Until rhis year, we had paper textbooks for French as well.
I don't care how heavy they are to carry round. They're a lot bloody easier to look at than online ones.
. . . I suppose I'd like them more if they cooperated with the mini laptop . . .
I feel like I'm about to cry. I don't even know why. O_O
I'm odd. Don't feel you have to comfort me, I'm not actually upset about anything . . . O_O :/
Star - you can have an ninjaeroplanetacklehug anyway:) *ninjaeroplanetacklehugs*
Disappearing again...
*smiles* Danke, Ieni. :) *ninjaeroplanetackkehugs back*
*hugs Star* We're all odd around here, Star :)
I've written two sentences in over an hour and a half. Yeah, good going, Star. :P
Yay another post!
Hi people that are here.
Ahh no. NO NO NO NO NO.
I WOULD have been able to go to the thing in Easons but I have a music practice for SNOTHER competition on Sunday so I can't go.Why can't the competition be next week or something.
Wait Derek if you're still there what time will it be over at?
*ANOTHER
What, we are?!? Really?!? *shock*
WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME?!?!?!? *glares* *giggles*
*hugs Maraness* :)
:( BAD BAD LUCK, AISLING! :(
Hi, btw.
*realises I'm writing 'und' instead of 'et'*
DAMMIT.
I only wanted the blessing made
Now I've been labelled the renegade!
It seems so clear now what I must do
You're no immortal; I won't let them
Deify you!
They view
You as the new messiah
Deify you!
Renew
Belief in some demented man . . .
THREE sentences! *cue applause* Wow! Aren't I a genius?
Amazing Star *claps*
Oh, wait, it's four. FOUR! *explodes at the very thought of such an immense amount of work*
Hey peoples! :D
Derek another question. If you were still there at 7:45 ish would I be able to just come late?
*laughs*
Danke, Aisling. :) :) :)
Although, I did deserve it. I have been working my socks off, after all. Look, I'm not wearing my socks now! *points at feet, which are clad in tights and have been all day*
*glares at passing bystander* WHAT????????? YOU DARE SUGGEST I AM BEING SACASTIC????????????????????????????????
Brb, dinner.
Please answer Derek! Please please PLEASE.
This is extremely important.please my happiness is at stake here.
Bye Star.
Hi rose black.
Is anyone still there? No?
just got back! Sorry I didnt give a warning.... I had to go to Muay Thia training. I rocked it!
=>
Hi Valkyrie Smith. Cool.
HI VALKYRIE SMITH!
Gah. We have a Val, a ValMarsh, a Cain . . .
And Smith sounds too much like a surname, because it's being awesome and surnamey.
So therefore, I shall call you Valk. :)
If you have any reason why I should not call you this, please speak now. :)
Oh, back, btw.
And also, I am Star Inkbright. Uh, duh. :P You may call me Star or you may call me Ink. :)
*sucks at introductions* XD
Everyone else always says stuff like "Hello, I am so-and-so. I am a trained assassin who can kill in a second. I have tons of amazing powers. Pleased to meet you." Coz they're, y'know, awesome. :)
WAIT.
Am I meant to ded?
Oh yeah Valkyrie I think Star had a good idea there. Can I also call you valk?
I'm Aisling but you can call me ais ash or Aisling whichever you want.
Mara I don't know do people usually ded on the first page?
*can't remember 'also' in French* DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT. Come on, you've known this like years.
Also in German, 'auch', just keeps popping into my mind. D:
GUFKEWVCDFHWJVC SBM<VBHE<KJMVYKDKJHNCDM
*flips through French book* OH, AUSSI! HOW COULD I HAVE FORGOTTEN YOU???
And they said we wouldn't really get mixed up between the two languages. *grumbles* Auch and und are just taking over my brain. NOt being to remember 'and' for a few seconds is too much, really.
Ignore me, just procrastinating . ..
Nein Mara, the first page isn't dedded. *is unsure whether that is a good thing or a bad thing, so :|*
Oh, introductions!
Hello there Valk! :) I'm Maralie, a teleporter and huge Directioner. *grins* *curtsies* *falls over*
You can call me Mara, Lily, Charmeleon...
Brb dinner.
*almost writes 'bin ich'* *faceheads, banging headphones crooked*
*straightens headphones and glares*
Mkay.
Uh, do we ded on the first page usually?
*needs to flick through French book again to remember 'I am'*
GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Bye Ais!
Star... Are you okay? *laughs*
No, Mara, we don't usually.
Star's Guide to German:
I = ich
am = bin
have = habe
homework = Hausaufgaben
no = nein
yes = ja
correct/right/true = richtig
because = weil
and = und
also = auch
but = aber
German = Deutsch
French = Franzosich
that = das
is = ist
it = es
That's about it. :P
I'm fine. My French isn't, though. I believe most of it has been eaten by German, like the chocolate on the Krave advert.
not = nicht
EVERYTHING YOU SAY NOW MAKES SO MUCH SENSE STAR! O.O
And now I can't find my bloody music copy. *grumbles*
Oh I can speak a bit of German....heh.
Maybe some of the French can eat the German to even it out? :P
Hmm... I'll kill this character off, definitely... MwahahahaHAHAHAHA!
WHAT??? EVERYTHING I SAY MAKES SENSE????????? *dies of shock*
*begins writing 'Englisch'*
OH, ----.
*rushs to google translate to find out what 'English' is in French*
This is just getting ridiculous now . . . I'm trying to write a six-word sentence, "Also, I am good at English," and I couldn't write a single part of it. WTH. This isn't a HARD sentence . . .
YES STAR! ERMAGERD! *dies from horror*
I WILL BE THERE
in my dreams. and in spirit. (I'm sure I can find someone willing to torment you on my behalf)
I hope you have fun, m'dear!
Back!!
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
UYse them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in . . .
*Use
HI AISLING! HI BECKY!
Well, what happened whilst you were gone, Ash? Meh, not much. Me and Mara are lying dead on the floor now, but y'know . . .
This is actually ridiculous. Why does the one time that I absolutely have to go to music be the same day as derek landy will be doing a thing in easons. I could have been able to go but no, I have to go to music. Grr.
Sorry I think that's it all out of my system.
:(
At least you live in Ireland. He never tours America, at all, full stop. We Engli-und-Irimnions bist lucky . . .
Oh. are = bist.
...
...
...
*is dead*
No what happened to Star and Mara. How did yiz die?
Ennuyeux is French? WTH?
. . . Of course it's French, you idiot, it sounds damn French-like dunnit?
And nul, I keep forgetting that's French. It's because I really remember when we learnt them in Year Seven, and it was in our German classroom with our German teacher because it was our alternating day . . .
Learning two languages at once is REALLY confusing. :/ I just decided.
Well, we discovered I made SENSE. *is btw a ghost*
I'm sticking around on Earth coz I have unfinished buisness; I didn't reach the top of the solitaire leaderboard whilst I was alive! :'(
*Well, we discovered I made SENSE, and died of shock and horror. XD
I know Star. I feel so sorry for the ameriminions. We're actually fairly lucky over here in our few little country's that are a bit away from most other places.
Brb have to have shower.
*disagrees* We've right next to Europe and all them countries. *agrees* We have to go on the ferry/aeroplane/train to go anywhere, and it's 'SPENSIVE.
I always argue against myself, apart from when I don't. When I'm trying to make a point I often keep stopping to point out how I'm wrong. Ich bin doof.
stupid/silly = doof
sO YA. IM 11 NOW!!!!!! YAYYYYYAY
Bon jour, mes amis. Ça va?
~Swiftie Foreva~
I'M CRYING AGAIN.
GODDDDDDDD I'M SEEING MY BOYSSSSS ASDFGHJKL.
ERMAGERD.
just six more days. oh my golden god.
Hey guys.
I LOVE TAYLOR SWIFT!
AND NOW THAT I'M OFICIALLY 11 AND NO MORE TEN SHE IS ONLY...
12 YEARS OLDER THAN ME
SO IM NOT TO YOUNG FOR HER!
ISH!
Ça va. :3
NOOO AGUS IS IRISH MARA!
Oh well. Dia duit mo chara. Conas atá tú?
EDEN HI! IS IT JUST ME OR IS TAYLOR SWIFT LIKE THE MOST AWESOME PERSON-SINGER ever!
Hey brave nice new picture.
Taylor Swift is amazing. She's so damn pretty. o.o
/totalgirlcrushonherngl.
I am so damn tired .-.
Ahh! My bro loves 1D and he got takeme home on CD and I got Red on Cd and he uses MY sterio to listen to the annoying ejits sng WHEN i Really WANNA LISTEN TO TAYLOR
WHICH REMINDS ME
*i remember when we broke up the first time*
Hi! My Feeds thing says there are no new updates for this blog *scowls* stupid lying computer
I like almost every type of music so it's not that much of a contest.
The only thing ill say is she isn't that brilliant live.
I am torn between asking my parents to let me go and see Derek in Dublin but it might be to short a notice.
*mutters under breath* Taylor flacking Swift -_-
That girl is so immature. I know I'm really immature, but look at her. Harry and her met on the 22ND of November. Her new song is 22. She dresses like HARRY in her new video. And in the middle of We Are Never Getting Back Together when she performed at the Grammy's, she broke out in an English accent. Coincedence? I think not.
HI EDEN! HI BRAVE! HI SCÁTH!
Sorry, I poofed. My dad wanted the mini laptop . . .
Ich bin . . . I mean, ca va gut . . . I MEAN, CA VA BIEN,, DANKE. I MEAN, CA VA BIEN, MERCI. *hits self on head*
Und du. SCath? I mean, et tu, Scáth? *sighs*
I love Taylor :) gtg, bye Eden, bye Brave! *hugs both*
Bye Saph.
:( FOURS, SAPH!
Everyone I meet either is neutral, loves her, or hates her . . .
I'm going with dislike. No offense, anyone.
I still prefer U2 to anything else.
Back! (again)
Et toi*, Star
Et, personnellement, ça va bien merci beaucoup, ma chérie.
Je pense que Taylor Swift est très talentueux, vraiment sympa et absolument belle!
But guys, if you want excellanté music, you're looking in the wrong place. :)
DISTURBED 5EVER! <3 Sorry for stealing your word, Scáth, but the word '4ever' seems incorrect to me now. *laughs*
PLUS FIVE IS LUCKY AND FOUR MEANS DEATH. O_O
One Direction are eejits, Brave?
They're helping dying people in Africa, by donating £500,000 each to Red Nose Day. All their money from their new single goes to saving children's lives. They're begging everyone to donate to save a life. Zayn, Harry and Liam started bawling when they saw the children, and Louis and Niall were heartbroken. They have a 3D movie coming out in August, tickets for the premire are sold out already. They're going on a sold out world tour that I am going to on Monday. One Direction have cured so many girls and boys of course around the world of depression and worse things that I won't name. They treat their fans (and haters) with love and respect. Yes, even the haters. They are involved in over 8 charities in Britain alone.
So, Brave, are they eejits now?
But and I don't add this in favour of anyone.
They smoke.
SCÁTH, I COULDN'T SAY 'ALSO, I AM GOOD AT ENGLISH' /AT ALL/ AND YET I UNDERSTOOD YOU??? *laughs at self*
Oh, and I know excellanté isn't a proper word. It's my word. Shush. :)
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?feature=edit_ok&list=PLTslNdjmKxFtyDjXNSMNesm8F-RgBg0Av
NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL MUSIC.
U2? They did I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For, didn't they? Disturbed did a cover of that . . .
I'm confused what happened when I was gone that now some people are speaking French (I think it's French anyway)?
*hugs Maraness*
And this could be why I always appear to be on 1D's side nowadays. :)
I MAY HAVE MY ANSWER!!!
One Direction don't smoke! >:(
Zayn did, and the fans begged him to stop, so he did!
Ja, French. :)
Hi Aisling!
French and Irish get spoken the most on the blog altogether . . . :)
Yes U2 did that and I refuse to hear any cover version.
Please don't tell me that people are arguing over singers/bands.
Ah Irish. Has Derek ever blogged in Irish? He should.
I am not arguing I am only stating my own opinion.
And not commenting on anyone else's.
We are, Aisling.
I never said you had to, Eden. :)
I was just acknowledging the fact that I'd heard one of their songs. Because of course I looked up the original after. :)
And then translate obviously because not everyone speaks Irish.
God, Eden, you just made me cry.
Thanks for that. ._.
I admit that would be interesting to see aisling.
Oui, français est très beau et le plus romantique langue!
Oh dear.
I'm staying neutral in this unless I decide to take a side.
I didn't like the cover, mostly because it was too not-Disturbed (although the instruments at the beginnning were cool), so therefore in my opinion the original is probably better anyway. :)
Sorry.
Haters just make me cry. If you don't like them, please don't say anything like that about them. Especially about their personal issues :'/
I just thought of something that would be hilarious.
If Derek was to put maybe a paragraph or a page of LSODM or book 9 in Irish.
Well it'd be funny for Irish people anyway. Y'know cause we'd understand it. Well I would anyway and anyone else in a Gaelscoil would.
I'm on 1D's side. *nods firmly*
Frencg is the language of love, according to Rick Riordan, which is why Aphrodite's kids can automatically speak it. You lose out on a power if you're already French, though. *grins*
*French
I don't go to a gaelscoil but I still can speak Irish but not as good as you probably.
I'd say I'd just use google translate for it.
*hugs Mara tightly* The best people tend to get the worst hate. And that's why there are wonderful people like you that remind people of their true beauty. <3 *hugs again*
I wouldn't bother with Google Translate! I'd just wait until Ais came on and ask her! *grins*
Mara . . . *hugs*
Adapting advice my mum's given me in the past, you know they're awesome, and as long as you know it, nobody else's opinion really matters. :)
Sorry I just sounded like I think anyone who doesn't go to a Gaelscoil can't speak Irish there. That was unintended. They can speak Irish.
And everyone else could just use google translate yes Eden.
Thanks Star. *grins back*
Even if you could speak Irish.
Lol.
I could have adapted that better . . . :/
i KNOW Mara that they help dieing chidren but I think there a tad girly and act like lunitics.
Hehehehe
No Jedward act like lunatics.
Hi... I have five minutes!
Hi Fabi.
1D may act like lunatics, but hey, almost every single person I have deemed awesome acts like a lunatic. XD
Acting like a lunatic gives you more awesomeness points. XD
Hahahah...
Oh dear, an argument.
How about this?
Brave and anyone else, you are free to listen to whichever bands you choose, but don't insult 1D when Mara's around. It's going to get you in trouble sooner or later.
