Happy Birthday to Meeeee


(I'm not exactly sure WHERE this image came from. Andrew, from my agent's office, sent this to me this morning. Haven't a clue where he found it, but it is AWESOME.)


Hullo there.

It's my 38th birthday.

First of all, thank you for all the birthday wishes I've been reading online. You care, you really care... sniffle... It almost made up for the fact that I will have no birthday cake today, and I have no one to sing me happy birthday. But that's fine. That's okay. I was woken up this morning by a birthday text, which would have started my day off with a smile were it not for the fact that the text was from O2, my phone provider...

Even so, thank you, O2. It's nice to know you care.

Before you feel TOO sorry for me, I celebrated my birthday last Saturday, when we combined it with a Halloween party because three of my nieces will be down the country on Halloween night. So, y'know... my birthday was hijacked by three princesses and a pirate. But that's fine.

So, what did I GET for my birthday? I shall tell you. I got a remote controlled toy car! From my brother and sisters! They got me a remote controlled toy car! Yes! They did! For no reason! For no reason I can possibly comprehend, they got me a remote controlled toy car! Thank you, brother and sisters! Just what I've always wanted but could never put into words! Joy of joys!

So, after picking myself up from the floor, it was my mother's turn to give me the present from my folks. It was a shirt! A shirt! A blue shirt! But not just any kind of blue shirt! A blue denim shirt! DENIM! The most awesome material you could possibly make a shirt FROM! A blue denim shirt!

Truly, I am blessed. It's not like when their birthdays come around I buy them computers or TVs or designer handbags. Nope. That's not what happens at all.

So you wait, my family! You just wait till your birthdays roll around again! You cannot BEGIN to guess what WONDER of a present I shall be buying you!

Joy of joys!

MY BOOKSHELF IS SO EMPTY. ME NO LIKE IT.

It has this big empty shelf in the middle where my fav books and a few others were, plus the next shelf is now half random junk and quatre books, as opposed to half random junk and half books . . . I had good books on there which I've taken off, too.

The books I'm using in my vid are:

Scenes One and Three (All hardbacks):
Skulduggery Pleasant (SP):Death Bringer
SP: Kingdom of the Wicked
Heroes of Olympus: Sons of Neptune
The Inheritance Cycle (IC): Inheritance
Gone: Lies
Gone: Fear
Artemis Fowl (AF): The Last Guardian

Scene Two (All Paperbacks):
Gone: Gone
Gone: Hunger
Gone: Plague
SP: Playing with Fire
SP: The Faceless Ones
SP: Dark Days
SP: Mortal Coil
The Hunger Games (HG): The Hunger Games
HG: Catching Fire
HG: Mockingjay
TimeRiders (TR): Gates of Rome
TR: City of Shadows
AF: Artemis Fowl
AF: The Artic Incident
AF: The Eternity Code
AF: The Lost Colony
AF: The Time Paradox
AF: The Atlantis Complex
His Dark Materials (HDM): Northern Lights
HDM: The Subtle Knife
HDM: The Amber Spyglass
IC: Eragon
The Kane Chronicles: The Throne of Fire
Black Magican Trilogy: The Magicans' Guild
The Joshua Files: Invisible City

AF: The Opal Deception isn't there because I'm reading it. SP: Skulduggery Pleasant isn't there because I keep referring to it whilst videoing . . .

The AF books are actually my sister's, but we both want them on my bookshelf coz my bookshelf is pretty and ordered.

I've only used my best books for the filming. No particular reason, other than the fact I barely acknowledge some of my books . . .

Star Inkbright said...

Not that all of the above are necessarily counted as my best, but I need that number and they're better than some. *shrugs*

Oh yeah, and I'm using TEOTW. Poor mutilated TEOTW. Maybe I should buy and Aussie version so I have one destroyed TEOTW and one non-destroyed TEOTW.

Well, it's not DESTROYED, but there is a large rectanglar greyish patch on it where the sticky label peeled half the ink off . . .

Star Inkbright said...

*an

Star Inkbright said...

Oh well. My TEOTW sacrificed its beauty for a good cause. The good cause being obliterating the boredom of me and my sibling(s).

My brother wants us to make a film using his books now. I am reluctant to do so.

Star Inkbright said...

RIGHT.

The Amazing Star Inkbright failed in her quest (due to the wi-fi being turned off :( ) so now they have moved to Plan B.

Who are they, again?

The people who organise these thibgs, duh.

Oh, right.

. . . Wait, who ARE the people who organise these things?.

Um.

Er.

Erm.

THEY. With capital letters and all.

Okay. Awesome.

So, Plan B. What is it?

THEY didn't say.

Um. Alright. Why not?

Dunno. Summat to do with it being top secret.

DAMMIT.

So who DOES know?

YEHT. Pronouced yeaht.

How d'ya pronouced yeaht?

Like yeah, but with a T on the end.

Awesome.

So, we gonna go find YEHT and ask them what THEY are doing about the stone?

Why not?

Yeah, why not?

I'm in. :) How do we find YEHT?

Not sure. We'll work it out as we go along.

Awesome.

My SP books arent dead. I vowed i will not kill them. They need to meet Derek first

Vinette, killed her copy of Scepter

Star Inkbright said...

Alright. If we gonna do this, we need names first.

Why?

Yeah, why?

Not sure.

Because it can get confusing for the reader if we don't?

So? Me no wanna name.

Tough.

How about we have names if we want them?

Yeah, how 'bout that?

Cool. MY NAME IS . . . *dramatic pause* *longer pause* *even longer pause* Um . . . Er . . . Oh, to hell with this. Who cares about the reader anyway?

Yeah, who cares?

Wait, what actually are we?

Dunno.

Does it matter? Let's get on with ittttttt.

Agreed.

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

Really confused

Valice said...

DEREK!!!!! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!!! VERY, VERY, VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!!

Please tell me: is it true?! Are you really coming to the Lit Cologne??
That would be soo awesome!!!!

Oh, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Star Inkbright said...

'Lo, Zaf.

Star killed her TEOTW. XD

Wait, now I have multiple personalities? Great.

There is no 'I' in teamwork, buddy.

So if they have no eyes, all teams are blind?

Yuppers. Why do you think people can't see past their own opinions?

I do not have multiple personalities. I have multiple blog personalities. DIFFERENCE.

True, dat.

THERE YOU GO!!! 'I'ing again.

I DON'T WANNA BE BLIND!

DITTO!

*looks at Zaf* Sowwy 'bout this.

Star Inkbright said...

Okay. North, east, south or west!

NORTH!

EAST!

SOUTH!

Alwight. North-east it is then. *begins wandering off in vague north-east direction

*follows*

*doesn't follow* HEY! Why not south?

Coz you a scary-cat.

NO FAIR.

YES FAIR.

*west?

Star Inkbright said...

*comes to door*

I FOUND SUMMAT!!!!

YOU DID NOT, IT FOUND YOU!!!!

Ooh, what do you think it is?

A door.

Me too.

Why?

Because it *looks at door* looks like a door, *puts hand on door* feels like a door, *puts ear to door* sounds like a door, *sniffs door* smells like a door, *licks door* and tastes like a door.

Ew, that's disgusting.

Doors don't smell of anything.

Exactly. I smell nothing, so, therefore, it smells of a door.

I don't smell nothing. I smell toffee.

*coughs guilty* That would be these. *holds out bag of toffees*

Ooh, can I 'ave one?

No.

You're mean.

Yup.

Derek, what did i say about taking over the world? Its not nice!

Star Inkbright said...

My mum wanted to know if the Ameriminions knew anythink about this hurricane. I said I though someone mentioned a hurricane or something somewhere before. Very specific. :P

Star Inkbright said...

Huh. And you post about the hurricane right before I do. :P

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

Well you can tell your mum im in the hurricane xD im not on the coast, but im an hour and half from New York City

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

Its basically super windy and the drizzle is like a doenpour thanks to the wind.

Star Inkbright said...

WOW. Awesome. :)

We have no hurricanes, no volcanoes, and no earthquakes in Britain. :(

Okay, we had an earthquake in 2007, a small one obviously. It was so unusual that the other week I saw the 2007 earthquake used in my Science textbook as an example that earthquakes can occasionally happen England.

Butler woke to find blood dripping from the trip of his nose. It was falling onto the white hat of the hotel chef. The chef stood with a group of hotel kitchen staff in the middle of a destroyed storage shed. The man gripped a ckeaver in his hairy fist, just in case this giant on the tattered mattress that was wedged into the rafters was a madman.
"Excuse me," said the chef polietly, which is usual for a chef, "are you alive?"
Butler considored the question. Apparently, unlikely as it seemed, he was alive. The mattress had saved him from the strange missle. Artemis had survived too. He remember feeling his charge's heatbeat just before he passed out. It wasn't there now.
"I am alive," he grunted, a pile of dust and blood falling from his lips. "Where is the boy who was with me?"
The crowd assembled in the ruined shed looked at one another.
"There was no boy," the chef said finally. "You fell into the roof all on your own."
Doubtless, this group would like an explanation, or they would inform the police.
"Of course there was no boy. Forgive me, the mind tends to wander after a three-storey fall."
The group nodded as one. Who could blame the giant for being a touch rattled?
"I was leaning against the railing, sunning myself, when the railing gave way. Luckily for me, I managed to grab the mattress on the way down."
The explanation was met with the mass sceptism it throroughly deserved. The chef voiced the group's doubts.
"You managed to grab a mattress?"
Butler had to think quickly, which is not easy when all the blood in your body is concentrated in your forehead.
"Yes. It was on the balcony. I had been resting in the sun."
This entire sun buisness was extremely unlikely. Especially considoring it was the middle of winter. Butler realised there was only one way to dispel the crowd. It was drastic, but it should work.
He reached inside his jacket, pulling out a small spiral pad.
"Of course I intend to sue the hotel for damages. Trauma alone should be worth a few million euro. Not to mention injuries. I presume I can count on you good people to be witnesses."
The chef paled, as did the others. Giving evidence against one's emplyers was the first step to un-employment.
"I . . . I don't know, sir," he stammered. "I didn't actually see anything." He paused to sniff the air. "I think I smell my pavlove burning. Dessert will be ruined."
The chef hopped over the chunks of shattered tile and disappeared back inside the hotel.The remaining staff followed his lead, and within seconds Butler was in his own again.

From Artemis Fowl and the Opal Deception. Lol.

I am thirteen and one half today.


I should get a present.

NOM Ominous said...

No. I should get my skulduggery KOTW book.
But I just had a vision that it wouldn't come for a little longer, because of a storm. A hurricane.

Ariana Shade said...

No. I should get some money. Because I'm out.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I'm out of money. And it's my half birthday. I want presents.

Happy half-birthday!

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

FINALLY someone is acknowledging my half-birthday!


THANK YOU, SPD. YOU ARE OFFICIALLY MORE AWESOME.

ClockworkFallenAngel said...

Cool.

NOM Ominous said...

We haven't acknowledged it because... you wanted presents for it and we're all out of present money.

It's your half birthday today
It better not be crappy or even okay
It better be the best
And never the worst
The angels are singing
Your cellphone is ringing
Derek is celebrating
Tomorrows goin to be devastating
Your half birthday's today!

I just wrote for you. So, you better be happy.

ClockworkFallenAngel said...

That's your present from me because I can't just hand over something tangible.

I'd give you an SP book, but I'm not allowed to buy anymore this month, apparently.. maybe one, if I'm lucky. :P

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

*skips around*

Anyone with brains think they can answer this?

The handcuffs, what exactly makes the symbol dampen your power? Like how does it work?

I got a feeling....this is a Derek question

Ariana Shade said...

I refuse to acknowledge your half birthday.

ClockworkFallenAngel said...

I dedicate this to Val! Happy half-birthday!

Not if I tackle you first..

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

*runs and attacks a door with an axe*

HEEEEEERREEER'SSSS JOHNNY!!!!!!!!!

ClockworkFallenAngel said...

It's like the bug from "The Lost Art of World Domination". Except, the effect is temporary. It's like taking the power of the bug and dampening it. You also have to remember that it isn't just handcuffs. There's the ring that Batu gave to Val in the third book, and I remember that there are ropes and chains as well. So it might not be a symbol on the handcuffs, but what the handcuffs actually are.
How's that for a mind-boggling statement?

Ariana Shade said...

When are we officially allowed to talk about KOTW on a normal post?

ClockworkFallenAngel said...

I challenge puny minds. Actually, I confuzzle puny people's minds-when they actually follow along and dont tune out. But when it comes to Average people, my sayings challenge them. When it comes to people like me, we can have long arguments. When it comes to people that are smarter... Well, I don't know... I've never really tried to explain or argue to someone who is smarter than me.

Star Inkbright said...

POSTING A LONG SPEECH THAT COULD TAKE ME A FEW COMMENTS. BEWARE!

*wonders why I only get hit by inspiration as I'm going to sleep*

Star Inkbright said...

Right, the other day I had a page that I didn't ded. I have a habit of not dedding my pages on the spot. I usually leave them till I get hit by a flash of inspiration a few days later. My last flash of inspiration hit me as I was crying over Enough. This ded is gonna be much less emotional and depressing, don't worry. 'Sgonna be equally rubbish though. XD

I was lying in bed with my eyes closed trying to get to sleep, and my thoughts were wandering, as thoughts do, particularly mine . . . I think I was thinking of Artemis Fowl, and then my mind somehow drifted over to Disturbed (no, I've no idea how that works either), and then I was thinking of Zath, I think, because the Zath area of my mind has a strong connection with the Disturbed area, and then of Luscathio mentioning Zath earlier (she said she was sorry for being distant, and that it was coz she was emailing Zath), and then to other times Luscathio's talked about Zath, in deds and just in general, and how Luscathio often deds about how amazing some people are. The Disturbed section also lead me over to Kes because she recently said that her favourite song was Enough, and I remembered that Kes has said heylo earlier today (well, it'll be tomorrow by the time this posts, so yesterday) and I remember vaguely taking notice of it coz I'd been saying heylo rather a lot recently, and I remembered that I'd got the word heylo from Nix, and also my common usage of the word meh, and the Luscathio dedding thoughts and the Nix thoughts mingled . . .
So I'm dedding to Nix. Because he's amazing as well, and he gets really oftenly gets overlooked. Luscathio has said a few times that Lynxia gets overlooked, but in my mind at leasy she never does anymore now that Luscath's pointed it out. And even though Zath rarely comes on anymore, I could never overlook him, and that is mostly because of Scathio, so maybe if I ded to Nix I'll stop him getting overlooked too. :) I'll have to do a good ded though. D: Really not sure I'll come close to succeeding. I ramble too much. :P

So. Nix. Nix is Nix. Nix is Nix is Nix. Nix is Nix is Nix is Nix and Nixxy Nix Nix Nix will Nixify me if I get one weensy aspect of his Nixness wrong. So I apologise in advance for not doing it right, Oh Nix of Nixs. And I, uh, apologise for all the Nixxy nonsense too. I'm gonna blame it on sleep deprivation. XD

Nix is good at constructive critisism because he dunt believe in saying "Oh, that's brilliant!" about things when they aren't brilliant. When he comments on people's stories, he says what he thinks. If he doesn't think something is very good, he'll say so. Some numpties could not like him for that because they could whine about him insulting their hard work. But, y'know, they're numpties. Which is why I called them numpties. Duh. Honestly, you guys, keep up, or I'll start thinking YOU'RE numpties. Wait, I already think that. In part. Don't be offended. Anyway, um, yeah, some numpties could tjink that, but other numpties, (like MEEEEEEE!!!) could appreciate that. I mean, if whenever you do something all you get told is "well done," how the hell are you meant to know how to improve??? If you've done something wrong, you need to know so you can put it right. Nix'll tell you if you've got summat wrong, like a character's personality. He'll also tell me if I get his Nixness wrong, which is why I apologised first. :)

Hi Lav!!!!

I have recently started naming period after Aussiminions. They are by no means an exact way of measuring time. They have gaps and overlaps. But anyway, I have the Sparky Period, the ZathandNixandEve Period, the NixandEve Period, the Death Period, and the Nothing Period (now). In the NixandEve Period, I remember I used to come home from school every day and just switch my phone on and spend ten minutes reading the comments made in my absence, laughing . . . :'( Such good days. I miss that, really I do. But my point is, it was usually Aussi- and Kiwiminions that were there in those comments. There were different people there. Helena, Cain, Reingington. But what stood out was Nix and Eve, hence the period name. They were usually there, day in, day out. Oh gods, and some of those convos were hilarious. Like when someone said, "BACK!" and things like "FRONT!" and "SIDE!" followed. Can't remember it correctly, but it was a LOL moment. There was tons of stuff like that. Oh, remember when Nix was teaching Cain and some other person to do . . . something??? Part of the process was making a Thor joke??? Nix was giving instructions and the others were following??? Oh, and remember Sir Reingington becoming a mustache and a shark? "I'm just a surfer/scientist/gentleman/Floridian/poor boy, nobody loves me/American/narcissist" or summat like that but longer? That whole page was so LOL. Oh, and Eve, something about . . . can't remember . . . Sorry, getting off track again. My original point was, Nix can be hilarious. Yeah.

Point Number Whatever. Nix can use these words like meh and heylo, which have no immediate effect on people, but a few months later, you can find yourself using them. I am evidence of this. :)

I know tons of people write stories and we have tons of talented writers, but don't forget, Nix is among those talented writers.

Oh, plus he's evil in the fact that he has forever tainted the word nobody. Because his old display name was 'Who, me? I'm nobody' and people used to call him Nobody. So I can't use the word nobody without my mind telling me "Nix". :/

Plus he knows how to blogfight properly. That's more than I can say for some people. Not that I'm going to say anything about them, I just pointed out that I could do.

Oh, and Nix is very Strange. Very Strange indeed. Even if Strange wasn't his last name, he would still be Strange. Coz that's how Strange he is. :)

Star Inkbright said...


He won't admit he's wrong until he has proof that he's wrong. He won't just lie and say, okay, I'm wrong," to keep the peace, which can be annoying . . . But if he does get proof he's wrong, he will admit it and say, "okay, you win." Not everybody will do that.

Luscathio says all of us are perfect. No offense, but I take a different view on things. All my friends that I know fairly we, whether on the blog or irl - I can find one thing about each of them that I don't like, y'know? I'm not gonna start listing, coz I can't. It would feel too cruel. Nobody's perfect. We all have flaws. But what friendship is about is putting up with those flaws and not making a big thing about them, because I tell all of you now, the things about you I don't like compared to the things I do like is like one baked bean compared to the whole can. You're all amazing. My friend at school once was talking to me about our other friend on the day that we were having a fallout with our other friend. She said that she didn't really want to be friends with her, because she didn't want to be friends with someone who was gonna be moody. I was just like, "Well, you can't be friends with anyone then, not even yourself, because everybody has bad days. Everybody's moody sometimes. Occasionally on the blog someone'll be all quiet and distant, but another day they could be really fun company. You just have to accept that not every day is a good day for everyone." I remember it coz I rarely say anything meaningful . . . But anyway, with all my friends, I put up with their flaws because the not-flawed parts of you are so amaziggle. I agreed with Luscathio that you're all beautiful. Who you are is so awesome and wonderful and I'm proud to be your friends. Seeing as this ded is about Nix; that all goes for him, because I count him as a blogfriend and he's amazing. Just because nobody's really said it till now (or if they have I forgot it), doesn't mean it's not true. We have many awesome people in Blogland, and Nix is one of them. DON'T YOU THERE FORGET THAT. ELSE I WILL SET MY DEADLY ENEMY ON YOU! *points to tree branch* YUSSS.

Speaking of Nix, he rarely comes on anymore. :( Sparky and Zath and Nix and Eve were my first Aussiminion friends, and how many of them are regular now? One, and that's Eve, and she's often distant. THERE ARE NO AUSSIMINIONS NOW. Not really. And the less there are, the less people are likely to come on and talk to no one . . . WE'RE SPIRALLING DOWN. D:

But I can't end my ded on an unhappy note like that, oh no. So, BUBBLES.

Star Inkbright said...

. . . Dedding is much easier when your comments don't disappear if you make them long . . .

Anyways, HI!

Luciana said...

I believe that everybody is perfect, because they have flaws. I accept that people have flaws and the fact that their assets and their flaws are theirs is what makes them perfect. Perfect is a word that I don't think there to be an exact meaning of, because it can be interpreted differently. But when I think perfect, I think Blogland. There might be flaws, but that doesn't stop you from being perfect, in my eyes. You're perfect because you are you. Then again...I don't think the word perfect does any of you justice, because words will never truly express how much you mean to me and how highly I think of you...

Other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed reading your dedication, Star. And I agree, Nix is often overlooked. I hope that he will be given more attention in the future.

*smiles* You're really good at writing dedications, Star. You manage to be sincere and deep, yet casual and bubbly. You've found a perfect balance so it's not too depressing, or upsetting and it's not too bouncy and bubbly. You found a tone in which to speak, or write, that suits the majority of the audience that you're speaking/writing for. You're very talented. :)

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Yay! I read everything!

Hi Star!!!!

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Oh, yeah, I disappeared for dinner, hence the not-commenting-straight-ish-after-thing.

Star Inkbright said...

Firstly . . . *points to perfect thing* Yeah. Agreed. Only my interpretion of the word perfect means 100% good and 0% bad, which is why I said I disagreed. If that makes sense.

And OMGG I'm not talented at deds, really I'm not. You're way better than me. But thanks so much. :D

Luciana said...

Yeah, that makes perfect sense, my dear. It's rare that people interpret things in the same way I do. :)

I believe you're talented at writing dedications! *laughs* Me? No, I used to be okay at writing dedications, but I lost that talent. Nowadays, I avoid getting first because I can't write dedications any longer. :)

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

My sister is showing me how she flicks her hair...
Anyone think that's slightly strange?

Star Inkbright said...

You cannnn. Only if you're anything like me, just not at every moment. :)

Of course people interpret things differently - we're human. Unfortunately.

Me and my sister are very strange. :) *laughs*

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

*frowns*
My dad just gave me a big-ish speech about a question in homework and that speech helped. The only problem now is the fact I can't remember the speech.

I'm hopeless at this. XD

Luciana said...

Honestly, Star, my dedications and anything I try to write...It's just lacking something. I'm not quite sure what it's lacking, but I end up deleting it all because they're just words on a screen - there's no emotion behind them.

I've probably just said everything I want to say. *shrugs* I don't know...

I just can't write dedications anymore and I can't be inspirational. :) It's allllll gone.

Star Inkbright said...

I doubt it has. It's just locked up in your TREASURE TROVE OF MEMORIES, to reference back to me and Eve yesterday. It'll be in there somewhere. *picks up chisel and magnifying glass, then begins chiseling Scathio's head open* Here, deddy deddy deddies . . .

Star Inkbright said...

Brb.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

OK Star.

Eve the ROCK said...

Haha, Star. When you said Nobody's Perfect, DO YOU KNOW WHAT I THOUGHT? :P

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...
