Back in Circulation

Ah, time off... how I love you so... At least, I love the IDEA of you. I love the MENTION of you, the PROMISE of you. But I never quite GET you, do I?

Such is the reality of life as a writer— there IS no time off.

Other people leave the office and go off on holidays, but that's not the case with writers. Oh sure, we can easily walk away from the writing desk, but it's not so easy to flick the switch in our heads that makes us stop thinking of the next thing to write. We're stuck in that headspace. A writer's brain will continue to churn, even when we want to think about other things. It's not a BAD problem to have. It's not as bad as, say, being born without a head or waking up one morning to find your house is made of cheese. But it can get annoying. It means that you can never really relax...

I've had a few days off ever since sending in my first draft of LSODM. The last time I spoke with Nick, my editor, he was halfway through and loving it. Apparently. So that's good. I think. I'm not sure what my feelings are towards this new book. At the moment I'm too close to it, I don't know if it's good or great (or, yikes, bad) so I'm at that stage where uncertainty is tainting everything and I'm just waiting for Nick to finish the whole thing and say "Yeaahhhhh it's... fine... BUT..."

So yes, I've had a few days off since then. Two of which were taken up with meetings. But from Thursday on, I haven't even had to answer the phone. So what have I been doing?

Planning.

I have two short stories to write for various things. I want to do a lot more for the Skulduggery short story collection coming out next year. I need to start thinking of Skulduggery Book Nine. And I have to get a handle of what I'm going to write AFTER. What book is going to coming out in 2015? What will the next series be?

So that's what I've been doing over the weekend.

But now that I have the first draft handed in, hopefully I'll be able to get back to posting here on a weekly basis, and being a bit more present on Twitter, and generally getting things back to normal. You've all been very patient while I've had my head down, and I appreciate it. As a reward, here's a thing.

xD

One of my favourite things about live MCS performances is how often Justin Pierre forgets his lyrics:

"Matt makes his murderou- mur-
Wait, wait, what does he do?"


@Zaf: Videos?

HI TAIA!

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Mary Contrary said...

Hiya Star! :3

Oh? What sort of videos d'you make, Zaf?

Star Inkbright said...

Ohmygosh, the person in my drawing is so PRETTY!!!!! D:

I'm loathe to say that Kristen Stewart is because for one thing, I'm somehow drawing her prettier than she is, and for another, in real life without tons of makeup and tons of Photoshopping, she would look different. :)

BUT STILLLLLLLLLLLLL. D:

JEALOUS!

Although she may look less pretty once the hair is all drawn, so. :P

HI LUCE!!!!!!!

Blogland Collaboration said...

Hello I am Fabi and I am not really here, writing for the MC just now... Does StarTC know anything about healing? Like, basic facts? I feel like you mentioned this before, but I'm too annoyed (disclaimer: not at anyone who is likely to read this) to read back to earlier chapters.

Oh, and I'm gonna finally get us out of Effie's house. I hope.

Luciana said...

Hey Zaf.

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: Yay for drawing!
And, yeah, a lot of make-up & editing goes into things like that. :3

'Kay, Zaf. I will take a look in about... three minutes. :3

Hiya, Luci! :)

Luciana said...

Hey Taia.


Killing In The Name Of is in my head...

Star Inkbright said...

Come inside and be afraid
Of this impressive mess I've made
If you take a look now you will find
I have thrown away my vice
Done away with paradise
Come see what's going on inside my mind . . .

Please let me out!
Please let me out!
Please let ME!

Branded like an animal!
I can still feel the burning in my mind
I do believe you've made your message clear
(I think I'm losing my mind, I think I'm losing my-)
Deprivating, isolating, all that I feel
Leaving me with images I know are not real
Are those words of condemnation that I hear?
(I think I'm losing my mind, I think I'm losing my-)

Come inside now, I implore
Do you think you can restore
The crucial poeces missing from my brain?
What seems to be the matter dear?
Why do you cry and shake with fear?
I've only had the best dub me insane!

Please let me out!
Please let me out!
Please let ME!

Branded like an animal!
I can still feel the burning in my mind
I do believe you've made your message clear
(I think I'm losing my mind, I think I'm losing my-)
Deprivating, isolating, all that I feel
Leaving me with images I know are not real
Are those words of condemnation that I hear?
(I think I'm losing my mind, I think I'm losing my-)

I don't know how much I can take
Secret thoughts inside me wake
I've lost what was within me
Oh sweet insanity
I don't know how much I can take
Secret thoughts inside me wake
I've lost what was within me
Oh sweet insanity

Now I try again to find
The thing that was my mind
The only other sign
Who said I've lost my mind?
Now I try again to find
The thing that was my mind
The only other sign
Who said I've lost my mind?
I've a lost a my mind!
I've lost my mind!
I've a lost a my mind!
I've lost my mind!
I've a lost a my mind!
I've lost my mind!
I've a lost a my mind!
I've LOST!
Mind, I've a lost a my mind!
I've lost my mind!
I've a lost a my mind!
I've lost my mind!
I've a lost a my mind!
I've lost my mind!
I've a lost a my mind!
I'VE LOST MY MIND!

(Warning: May be incorrect number of I've lost my minds and I've a lost a my minds above. It's sort of hard to remember how many there are meant to be)

Brilliant song. It sounds all panicky too, the way it's sung, which adds to it a lot. :)

Star Inkbright said...

@Fabi: Probably not. D:
Oh wait. She's probably know some basic stuff.

HI SCÁTH!

Luciana said...

Hey Star.

Blogland Collaboration said...

Okay, thank you Star.

Sorry, not here. [waves to Star, Lucy, Taia, Zaf and any other awesome people who are here]

Star Inkbright said...

When I'm done, I'm going to show you the image I was copying and then the image I drew so I can show off about how mine looks better. XD

Tbh, I think part of it is because my colours are very bright and blocky. :P

Thank you, Staedtler.

Star Inkbright said...

Straw Mushroom. :)

@Zaf: They're pretty awesome. :3 ^^

Hi Fabi who's not here! :)

FINISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Mary Contrary said...

There was once a man named man~

@Star: Yay! :D

Mary Contrary said...

* Man

*nods*
Can't forget capitalisation of names (though evidently, I just did. :P)

Star Inkbright said...

HI TAIA! :)

Star Inkbright said...

Gah. The photo took out the intesity of the colour. :P

Never mind.

Star Inkbright said...

So.

Nah, the original looks better. :P

Star Inkbright said...

I just realised, I've listened to an album and a half . . .

Hmm. Been drawing for longer than I'd planned.

Star Inkbright said...

I would tweak the intesity of the colour on my drawing to make it look more like it does irl, but Photoshop's on the other laptop. :P

Oh well.

It's meh.

Luciana said...

Death cannot stop true love; it can only delay it.

Hola People

Tyler ( The sociopathic, angel of the lord , hunter :3) said...

I'mback from a communion

Star Inkbright said...

One day I should draw myself. :)

Star Inkbright said...

HI MUSHROOM!

HI TYLER!

Ah, communions. Ais and Mara had theirs relatively recently.

Star Inkbright said...

My bubble memorystick reminds me of onions. :P

I dislike onions . . . *giggles*

Tyler ( The sociopathic, angel of the lord , hunter :3) said...

I have my confirmation next year

Star Inkbright said...

That's what I meant, confirmation . . .

*blinks*

Sorry, My brain is all muchy and my eyes aren't working properly. Well, they are, they just keep unfocusing.

And now I'm bored. XD

Tyler ( The sociopathic, angel of the lord , hunter :3) said...

I'll have to go in a few minutes ....make it 2

Star Inkbright said...

*mushy

Muchy? *smiles*

Ah, dammit. Focus, you eyes!

Star Inkbright said...

*looks at clock* Aw. Fours, Tyler! :(

Tyler ( The sociopathic, angel of the lord , hunter :3) said...

It's okay Star

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: Your drawing's jepic. :3

(Apparently, I use 'jepic' now, too. :P)

Hiya Tyler! (if you're not leaving, already)

Luciana said...

Guess none of you recognise that quote from Princess Bride, then... :P

Tyler ( The sociopathic, angel of the lord , hunter :3) said...

SORRY , VERY SLOW ON COMMENTS

Right bye Star! * wings flutter disappears*

Star Inkbright said...

*hugs Taia* Yay, jepicness! :)

Thank you.

WE SHALL TAKE OVER THE WORLD!

*yawns*

Star Inkbright said...

:( Fours Tyler!

No, sorry, Scáth. :(

I read the book once and watched the movie nonce.

Btw, my brain is all mushy, just warning. :)

Mary Contrary said...

@Luci: I never saw the Princess Bride. Never heard of it before now, actually. :P

@Star:) Jepic could take the world by storm.
'Cause it's jepic. :P

Luciana said...

I can't remember who recommended I watch this film... But it's really good.

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: Your brain and my internet may be connected, somehow, because it has also turned to mush.

@Luci: Good in what sense? Like, any particular aspects?

Mary Contrary said...

Msd because internet falling apart.

I'm going to draw a triceratops, to replace this picture. :P >

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: You know in MC when they go see Dalrymple he reveals halfway through that he's not left-handed?

That scene is copied from The Princess Bride. In it, there were two guys swordfighting, and one was beating the other, and the winning one asked when the other guy was smiling. "Because," he said, "I'm nt left-handed." And then he switched ahnds and they carried on fighting and then the second guy (the one who wasn't left-handed) was beating the first. And then the second guy asked why the first guy was smiling. "Because," the first guy said," I'm not left-handed either." And then he switched hands and they fought and the first guy won.

Yeah.

Inigo Montoyo!!! I found his story so sad and jepic.

Star Inkbright said...

I read The Princess Bride because it was quoted a lot in the Inkheart Trilogy (they have a quote from somewhere at the beginning of every chapter) and I got interested. :)

The Princess Bride (the book, at least) is metafictive structure because it's a story within a stroy!!! *nods* Yay.

*is doing about narratives and blah at school atm*

Luciana said...

THERE YOU GO. I BLAME LANDY.

That scene was one of my favourites anyway, but now I love it even more c:

Star Inkbright said...

You ended up knowing like the whole life of the guy who did the abridging. XD

I half-wonder if it was actually a book before it was abridged at all, or if it's just pretending to be abridged.

Ieni Strider (Ieni The Ninja Aeroplane, Eater of Fabi's armses) said...

Rock climbing was so fun! I want to go now more regularly now and I could go to my friend's thing she goes to!
And MK was so NEW.

Msd/wbd.

Star Inkbright said...

I was slightly annoyed at Derek for not being original, but yeah. XD

Mary Contrary said...

@Star: Oh, awesome! I did not know that. I'd thought it was just Derek being clever. THE LIES, LANDY! THE LIES! (Not that he ACTUALLY lied, but, y'know. :P)

@Ieni! Hi! Hooray for rock climbing and fun-ness! :3

Star Inkbright said...

@Ieni: YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

I am taking over your life! *nods*

ROCKCLIMBING IS JEPICNESS. :)

Whenever anyone comes and climbs for the first time they always act like they're climbing a flight of stairs. XD If there isn't a large hold a foot or so above the previous one they think they can't do it. We all look at them standing there on the wall trembling and feel so suprior. XD
But if those same people were climbing trees, I'm sure they would work a lot more at it. *frowns*
It's attitude and stuff.
They just aren't in stretchy climby mode.

^^^Sorry, been wanting to say all the above to somebody for a few weeks now.

Star Inkbright said...

Rockclimbing IS fun. *nods*

@Taia: He did lie! He said he was a girl called Molly! :)

Star Inkbright said...

I just realised, my name is too long! My profile picture is forced to reside above it instead of beside it! OH NO!

Star Inkbright said...

DOES IT BE TOO LONG NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW?

Star Inkbright said...

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! *cries*

Star Inkbright said...

I SHALL FIX THIS.

Hey, remember when I was a newbie and my display name was HUGE??????? :)

The format has changed since then, affecting the positions of the display names and pictures, and therefore the appeal has been lost.

Ieni Strider (Ieni The Ninja Aeroplane, Eater of Fabi's armses) said...

I don't know if I'd be allowed though. My mum didn't sound too keen on the idea.
On my third go I went right up to the top:) *is happy* But I'm scared of heights so:/
Oh, and hi, Taia and Star!!! *ninjaeroplanetacklehugs*

Star Inkbright said...

TESTING, TESTING, ONE TWO THREE!

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Hello everyone!!!!!

Star Inkbright said...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

@Ieni: I am not afraid of heights, but I am afraid of falling. I am not afraid of being up high when I have confidence I will not fall. When I think there is a possibility I will go splat, I'm very scared.

The ropes are very strong and will never ever break, so my advice is to learn to trust them. :)

Don't know how rockclimbing is where you are, but it's pretty expensive here, so not many people go every week. I don't.

Mary Contrary said...

I've been rock climbing a couple of times. Always went to the top, because I'm fearless. (Hopes nobody remembers my mention of how The Goonies never fails to terrify me.) :P

@Star: Your display name and picture are positioned the same as everybody else's, for me. (?)

Hiya, Rhydian! :)

Ieni Strider (Ieni The Ninja Aeroplane, Eater of Fabi's armses) said...

It's £4.40 for two hours and there's a centre 5 minutes drive from me, or I could get the bus.
Going down was fun:)

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Hi Taia!

Star Inkbright said...

HI RHYDIAM!

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Hi Star! Hi Leni!

Ieni Strider (Ieni The Ninja Aeroplane, Eater of Fabi's armses) said...

Hi, Rhydian!
Would you say that's a good price, Star? Now I must convince my parents D:

Star Inkbright said...

Ah, ours is three hours.

I don't like lead climbing - that's when the rope isn't attached at the top, you take the rope up with you and clip it to the wall as you go along - because once I'm above my last clip, if I fall, I'll fall a few metres. D:
But you can only do lead climbing once you're a level three/four.
So yeah.

Lucky you - my rockclimbing is about twenty minutes away, driving?

Maegan Harty said...

Hi my fellow users of the interweb

Star Inkbright said...

And I would say that's pretty cheap! :)

Star Inkbright said...

HI MAEGAN!

One arguement is, it's two or three pounds per session to do most one-hour activities, and rockclimbing for you is twice that.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Hi Maegan!

Star Inkbright said...

Plus universities like to take people who have done lots of activites and stuff. *nods*


And on an unrelated topic, I be allowed to phone you! *dances*

Maegan Harty said...

I live in ireland most hour sessions here is €10 so if you live in the uk dwell in the moment! :)

Mary Contrary said...

Hi Maegan!

The nearest climbing centre to me is... Not very near at all, really.
It's been a few years since I went, though. The most recent was probably in primary school, so, meh. :P

Maegan Harty said...

Hi whoever said hi to me

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I said hi to you

Maegan Harty said...

I have a indoor play area near me but i'm too old for it pool is near me but you have to be a member

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I've never been rockclimbing before.

Ieni Strider (Ieni The Ninja Aeroplane, Eater of Fabi's armses) said...

Oh, my friend explained to me about that:)

Omg, yay! I think my parents are out Wednesday night and Saturday night!:) I think maybe leave it to Saturday though, because my brother is probably also going to be out and I'd phone you so my sister didn't hear the phone ringing, but I'll tell you about that later:)

Hi, Maegan!:)

Star Inkbright said...

Well, technically my school has climbing walls that you can book sessions at, and I used to go there in years five and six, but by then I could climb every single wall there with utter ease and it got tiresome with all the new people so we started going to Rockcity. It's a proper climbing centre that has much more walls and bigger walls, plus lots of harder walls. It also has bouldering rooms. It allows you to complete NICAS (National Indoor Climbing Award Scheme) levels and is generally pretty epic.
I'm sorry, I'm proud of my climbing centre. :) It's like feeling patriotic.

I've been climbing about four years. *nods*

Maegan Harty said...

I went rock climbing when i was seven that was a long time ago!

Mary Contrary said...

I need to start doing activities and stuff.
I do NOTHING with my free time, except drawing and reading and Blogland-ing and music-ing.
Which is all pretty awesome, in itself, but it doesn't count for much 'activity', really. :P

I used to swim a LOT, but my coach quit and then the head of P.E. department in my school took over and it was SCARY. And then they kept switching coaches and it was just annoying and confusing and meh. So I hung on for a couple of months, and then quit.

Star Inkbright said...

YAY! :)

I'll probably just be like, "Um, hello." XD

GOOOOOOOOO, Rhydian. :)

@Maegan: You probably have tons and tons of activites to do near you - you just haven't discovered them. :)

Maegan Harty said...

_ taiaceratops
I'm sooo the same activitys wise.also can i just call you dino?

Star Inkbright said...

I used to do swimming . . . I miss it. :(

I do rockclimbing, and I kind of do fencing but I haven't been in ages.

And I do orchestra.

And I now do D of E.

And I do reading, occasional writing, drawing, and lots of chatting to these random people I meet online, who are kind of nice but immensely odd and utterly insane. XD

(That's you guys, btw)

Actually, you've all so nice and thoughtful whilst being fun to talk to and utterly jepic in your jepicness.
And odd and insane.
Yes.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I know what you mean Star!

Mary Contrary said...

@Maegan: Sure! I'm not usually a dinosaur, so people mostly call me Taia, but I'm up for any name. :)
And DINOSAURS RULE.

@Star: I always wanted to do fencing! And I ALMOST took up archery. But it's a fair distance away, and having to get up at half five every Sunday is NOT my idea of fun. T.T

Ieni Strider (Ieni The Ninja Aeroplane, Eater of Fabi's armses) said...

Haha, same XD

I do a lot of music, more music, running with my friend, or by myself, work and talk to you jepic people:)

Star Inkbright said...

I do PE in school! *nods*

THAT'S A LOT OF EXERCISE!

Maegan Harty said...

I just read...... and go on this and go out with my friends i have such an uneventful life

Maegan Harty said...

I also do badminton

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I read, write, talk to my friend (Yes I only have one. Unless you lot count) And that's pretty much it...

Star Inkbright said...

Well, drawing is good for you and reading and writign are good for you, so I feel good about that. :)

OOH IT'S MY FIST YOUR MOUTH HER SCARS!

For those who don't know, it was the chorus of this song I draw and set as my profile picture.

The word 'crimson' in it also lead to my curiosity over whether blood was crimson or not. :)

Star Inkbright said...

I count my online friends as friends. :)

As such, I have over twenty friends. YAH!

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I'vw got to go now. Doctor Who comes on in half an hour and I want to eat my tea before then. BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Star Inkbright said...

And many people have only one friend, so. :)

Maegan Harty said...

Bye

Star Inkbright said...

YouTube is advertsing me Pre-Planned Funeral Plans.

How cheerful. XD

:( FOURS RHYDIAN!

Star Inkbright said...

:( FOURS MAEGAN!

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Hello! I just got fed up of things and created another account so I can email you all again! And officially contribute to the MC! Also if I add both my accounts as collaborators to my blog (when I restart it), I won't lose everything again if one of them dies. [nods] I probably should've just done this sooner,

Mary Contrary said...

To tell the truth
We're badly bruised
There is no future
And we both are thinking
"So this is my dinosaur life,
So this is my dinosaur life,"

Bye Rhydian!

Oh, this week's Doctor Who episode was written by Neil Gaiman, right?

@Star: That's... Worrying?

Star Inkbright said...

HI FABI!!!!!!!!!!!!! *hugs*

Nice to have you properly back. :) I've missed your name saying "Fabi".

Maegan Harty said...

No i said bye to rhyidian i should have phrased it wrong

Maegan Harty said...

Not wrong..... i mean't right

Star Inkbright said...

*laughs*

Maegan Harty said...

I know i'm hopeless at typing

Star Inkbright said...

I get you. *nods*

Star Inkbright said...

You aren't. :/

Ieni Strider (Ieni The Ninja Aeroplane, Eater of Fabi's armses) said...

I have my music friends, my middle school friends and my upper school friends and you guys:)

Bye, Rhydian! *waves*

Hi Ieni! [is ninjaeroplanetacklehugged]

Hello Maegan!

Hello Flora!

Star Inkbright said...

HYI FLORA!

@Fabi: *hugs back* NICE TO SEE YOU, ANYWAY. :)

*nods* at least my last two posts haven't had any spelling mistakes

Hi Taia!

Heya :)

hlfdkhlkh GUESS WHAT.

I got my ticket for Leeds today! :D terribly excited!

who else is going?

(sorry if I'm butting in!)

Maegan Harty said...

Gtg din din's bye type you all tomorrow! Now i am leaving!

Star Inkbright said...

:( FOURS MAEGAN!

I'M GOING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *screams* :)

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Bye Maegan!

Star, Mel and Lucy are going, I think! Not me, though! Too far! XD

Queen Flora Ophelia of the Flowers; Leader of the New Land of Stickers; Prophet of the New Order; General of the Shadow People said...

*SCREAMS ALONG WITH STAR*

AHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I'm so happy! :D

though I'm going to be in Leeds from 12:35, so I have no idea what I'm gonna do all afternoon, but STILL
hjlghslkgjs :D

Star Inkbright said...

:) :) :) :)

My mum came to Leeds twice a week for eighteen months and she still gets lost there every single time. XD

Not sure how that was relevant, but still. :)

Queen Flora Ophelia of the Flowers; Leader of the New Land of Stickers; Prophet of the New Order; General of the Shadow People said...

Aw that sucks Fabi! Another time, though :)

Queen Flora Ophelia of the Flowers; Leader of the New Land of Stickers; Prophet of the New Order; General of the Shadow People said...

@Star: Oh god, there is no hope for me now then! D:

Star Inkbright said...

One day, I am going to do a tour of (some of) the world, and I will visit you all. :)

I will go all around Aus, the US, and Ireland. *nods*

Ieni Strider (Ieni The Ninja Aeroplane, Eater of Fabi's armses) said...

Must poof now.
Byebye! *waves*

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Flora- I wish! [Laughs] I'm an Ameriminion, so, the chances that I'll ever get to go to a signing are lower than a bunch of low things!

Star Inkbright said...

*laughs*

Well, there's the massive one-way ringroad, so if you go wrong you have to keep on continuing going wrong round it and get more lost, so yeah. :)

And when you exit Leeds and want to head for Hull, you get offered the choice of The West and The South, and Hull is east, and it's like arghhhhhhh, but my mum's worked out now that you have to follow signs for London, The South.

Which is ridiculous, because Hull is in the north part of the world and everywhere else you head North for Hull, but yeah. XD

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Bye Ieni! :-(

That would be cool, Star! [nods]

HELLO TYLER

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Bye Star

Mary Contrary said...

Bye Maegan!

I'm not going to Leeds, but I hope you all who are going have lots of fun and awesome-sauce. *nods*

Aisling Dubh said...

Hello

I spent over SEVEN hours at the Fleadh today. SEVEN. I got there at 9am and was finished at 11:30. I was forced to stay there for 4 and a half hours after I was finished playing.*is tired*

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Hello Ais

Aisling Dubh said...

Wbd and msd I might fall asleep.

Mary Contrary said...

Awh, Bye Star!
Hi again, Tyler!
Hi Ais! Aw, :/
What's the Fleadh?

Wbd, watching something (not DW, though). :)

Aisling Dubh said...

Taia the Fleadh is an Irish trad music competition. The one today was the Dublin Fleadh. The group competitions were today and all the other ones are tomorrow. If you make it through the Dublin Fleadh you go onto the Leinster Fleadh. If you get through that you go onto the all-Ireland Fleadh.

My group didn't make it through but my friend is in the U12s and her group got through.

Aisling Dubh said...

By other ones I mean solos, duos and trios.

Aisling Dubh said...

And of course by the time I get home DW is over.*sighs* and I was sure I'd get to see it tonight.

Mary Contrary said...

@Ais: Oh, awesome! It's a shame you didn't get through, but it sounds like a great opportunity, nonetheless. I'm sure you were awesome. :P
Good that your friend got through, too. :)

Actually, I WILL watch Doctor Who. :P
BBL.
Bye~

@Fabi: aw no, that sucks! :( but you never know! Derek travels to Aus/NZ so it's a possibility! Never give up hope

@Star: Ah, it's alright - I'm go there by megabus, seeing as I'm a student who cannot drive for the life of her :) and bye!

Aisling Dubh said...

Aisling Dubh said...

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Hi everybody! I'm back! Doctor Who (Nightmare In Silver) Was amazing. I'm a total geek

Star Inkbright said...

IT WAS AWESOME. :)

Aisling Dubh said...

Hello people that just arrived

Star Inkbright said...

It was an awesome episode, but I preferred last week by a bit. :)

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I think it was the best episode yet.

Star Inkbright said...

You always wonder how odd it must be for the ordinary citizens on Planet Earth in the DW world, though. THEY LIVE IN A WORLD WHERE YOU CANNOT WATCH DW. O_O

Star Inkbright said...

Nah, last week was more disturbing and horrible. :)

I like thatness. :)

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Can't wait for next week though! The Name Of The Doctor

Aisling Dubh said...

I can't really give an opinion on that seeing as I've missed so many of them.

Star their lives must be full of longing for something that doesn't exist in their world.

Aisling Dubh said...

Rhydian and its the last episode of the season.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

My Saturday nights will be nothing...What am I talking about I can talk to you guys

Star Inkbright said...

@Ais: YESSSSSSSSSSs. :)

Star Inkbright said...

This advert has the song from Coraline on it. O_O

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

What advert?

Star Inkbright said...

And I think I have enough time to find a vid for one of my playlists before The Voice! *happiness*

Aisling Dubh said...

Star well that's what it said after the thing that says 'NEXT WEEK'. So yeah :(:(:(:(:(:(

Star Inkbright said...

Um. For a perfume. This woman dressed in white was doing random swirly dancing. *frowns*

Aisling Dubh said...
