March 15th, 2008 08:35

i HAVE read a lot of books tho!!!!
March 15th, 2008 08:36
yea # 6 and 7!!!!!!!!!!!
March 15th, 2008 08:41
I guess it’s because I’m picky… I pretty much read some Sci fi stuff (like Scott and James Patterson), fantasy, and that’s pretty much it since I kinda don’t like romance (depending on the story if it like almost every book I’ve read, it annoys me: Girl likes guy. Guy is jerk. Girl has best friend who has a crush on her. Girl goes out with the jerk guy anyways and then figures out he’s a jerk. Girl goes out with best friend at the end) and there aren’t really many other fiction genres.
March 15th, 2008 08:51
ooo that’s fool! i’m gonna go check it out.
March 15th, 2008 09:05

oooh, that is foolio! *goes to check pulse blogfest*
March 15th, 2008 12:55
after reading through that whole list of authors, i really dont know that many, which is sad. that means i’ve got to get reading obsessively again, which should be easy since its spring break now!
but i just went through all of the answers for today’s question, and you didnt answer it Scott-la! Why?! What would you have done if you weren’t a writer? is it a sekrit mystery that can never be answered, or are you just being lazy?
March 15th, 2008 13:01
Lucky it is all ready Spring Break for you?
I love Superman/Tom Welling!!!!
March 15th, 2008 13:05

I love Superman/Tom Welling!!!!
March 15th, 2008 13:09

Yay! Blogfest! You go, dude!
March 15th, 2008 13:43
yessa we get a semi early spring break, but we get out of school late, so it sort of makes up for itself.
I’ll have to check this Blogfest every day from now on, only adding to my family’s suspicions that i am completely addicted to the computer.
i’d've. hehe
March 15th, 2008 14:12
Im sure you have heard this before, but Brand New Colony by The Postal Service, reminds me a lot of Uglies. I was going to say this sooner but I just remembered.

Ello guv’nah. I had quite a lovely sugar rush last night. Very enjoyable indeed, but alas I have not slept in over 24 hours if you please and I just so happen to have a sugar crash, which is the downside to a sugar rush if you must know. Well Pip Pip Cheerio TaTa Tootleloo GoodBye.
March 16th, 2008 05:07

March 16th, 2008 07:30
hey….know what would be awesome? a “Hypochondriac Killed The Cat” Wearable Extras shirt. seriously.
so many other good shirts. like a Last Days concert shirt. that would make my forever. like, THE LAST DAYS on the front, and a list of cities on the back, like from a tour.
of course, it’d have to have Bixby on it.
the mindcaster symbol on my UR So 11:59 shirt is starting to wear off from wearing it so much…
March 16th, 2008 07:41
that t-shirt would be so cool!!
March 16th, 2008 07:54
My friend just went home. she was here a while but it was fun. Whoa! I’m kinda getting tired. this day is going by toooo fast!!! I want it to slow down, it makes me sad……..

I got Tithe and Valiant by Holly Black.
March 16th, 2008 09:18

March 16th, 2008 09:30
yay Tithe! is very very awesome.

someting like “Semi-Formal—adj. (and then the whole thing about Tally talking with the dress pants and ect)”

March 16th, 2008 11:50

March 16th, 2008 13:35

March 16th, 2008 15:02
wow. that is so cool. aw, not fun i guess to be coverd in green sparkles. are u the wicked witch?
March 16th, 2008 15:24
are you from emerald city?
March 16th, 2008 15:29
no to clarissa-wa yes to lotti-wa im an “ozian” and also a munchkin were not actually doing the musical my dance studio is doing it as our end of hte year show so no acting or singing(i do that at school right now im in high school musical ..=/ ) but we dance to the music lol well i guess we act to since we do have people as characters
March 16th, 2008 15:33
what does your costume look like (apart from the green sparkles)?
March 16th, 2008 15:40
its like a lime green no sleeve suit jacket with black trim and black pants its really really cute but im bad at describing
March 16th, 2008 15:47
sounds pretty cute!
Rosie-wa is an ozian! cheers!
March 16th, 2008 15:48
hehehe yup it’s pretty fun
March 16th, 2008 15:52
sounds like it! :lolz:
i wish i cood dress up as an ozian…
March 16th, 2008 15:52
aaah!
March 16th, 2008 15:52
well im like super exhausted so im going to bed now good night
March 16th, 2008 16:06
that’s fool Rosie-wa. what kind of dancing do you do?
i’m a jazz dancer and our recital theme this year is words. cuz my teacher hates lyrical music because no one counts, they just go by the words and since it’s like her 30th year teaching… i think. maybe not. maybe 20th. hmm. i don’t know. she decided to go a little out on a limb. our song is “I Want It All” by Queen. very fierce(haha. just watched project runway and now i can’t get Christians word fierce outa my head. if you don’t watch project runway your probably kinda confused. sorrys.)
March 17th, 2008 00:40
i do a lot of types of dance
pointe ballet modern jazz tap hip hop a little lyrical
Words…i like it!!haha i was so glad Christian won Project Runway he was my favorite from the begining
March 17th, 2008 00:59
Good Morning! It is (at this very moment i typed it in) 8:53.
And i need a shower!
To day is Palm Sunday, which means i have to go to church. Well, i don’t have too (i never do) but i guess since i should be ‘all-religious’ at this time of year.
Tomorrow i am leaving to go on spring break vacation to Tennessee. Sorry people that live there but i cant say im jump-for-joy happy over here. Everytime i tell a friend im going there for spring break they say, and i quote, “Oh, your going to hillbilly land, aren’t you?!?!” And i reply, “Sadly, yes.” So correct me, maybe you aren’t a bunch of lumberjack, hillbilly’s but maybe you are. But who am i to talk. I’m sure my people make fun of my state too.
March 17th, 2008 01:02
I take dance classes too. Jazz.
March 17th, 2008 01:11
I am atheist so I don’t have to go to church!
March 17th, 2008 01:30
Well that is ok! I hate it when people go ballistic over religions. When they all dissin each other and are trying to make u believe in there religion. Its like w/e it YOUR religion.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ne_WXP7lUWM
March 17th, 2008 01:31
Thats is a really funny YouTube video.
March 17th, 2008 01:35
me is very bored………………………
*sigh* i have no life.
Sophie
March 17th, 2008 04:45
my fave was Julian, but Christian was a close second. lol.
so what is up with the Pulse Blogfest website? is it like under construction? cuz that’s what it says for mine. does it work for anyone else?
ughhh…i have to babysit again today. i’m with ya Sophie-la i have no life either. school. massive amounts of homework. eat. sleep. babysit.
…that is what my life consists of right now.
March 17th, 2008 04:49
i have no live either
and theres nothing even on tv
March 17th, 2008 05:52
Oh I’ve always wanted to be in a Wizard of Oz play,It’s my favorite movie since I was little, but they never do it.Grrr…oh well. I don’t think that you should judge people by there religion, it’s not right to do that. I’m a Christian and I go to Church almost every Sunday and I have friends that are Catholic or Mormon and whatever else, so yeah people shouldn’t judge people like that. Ali-wa, I have a question. I know that an Atheist doesn’t believe in God, so what are your beliefs? I’m just curious you don’t have to answer if you don’t wanna.
March 17th, 2008 06:17
my friend is an atheist, and she gets so annoyed when I’m like “What do you say when someone sneezes?” or “What does the “G” in TGIF stand for then?” sometimes I only ask to annoy her lol
March 17th, 2008 07:16
Well i have a friend who is an atheist and she just believes there is a higher power but she doesn’t no what. I think its different for each person.
another thing i dont like is when people choose your religion for you. Like i get that your parents might want u to be baptist or jewish or catholic but its ultimately up to you to choose.
I believe in god but at times i don’t understand how everything happen and it can give me doubts.
March 17th, 2008 07:18
same for me bran-la. but me is boreded. talk to me……..
Sophie-LA
March 17th, 2008 07:21
Haha. Ok i will.
Right now i am typing more of my story. Although im at one of those boring-to-write parts!!!! And i am wishing tomorrow wasnt monday so i dont have to go to Tennessee!!!!
March 17th, 2008 07:59
he he he… i ish hyper. yes, ish. its a word, google it. (please dont, it isnt really a word)
SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED ON TODAY’S DATE:
1926- Rober Hutchings Goddard, American physicist, launches first liquid-fueled rocket.
WHAT???? Its written on my calendar and i thought i would share it with you. CANT I SAY SOMETHING WEIRD EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE?????? (i told you i ish hyper)
March 17th, 2008 08:05
hehheh…those are some of mes favorites authors
jeez
how long can you ground somebody for READING!?!?
I mean, isn’t reading supposed to be EMCOURAGED when you’re in middle school?
Isn’t that the whole reason I’m reading this stupid “connections†version of Treasure Island?
Okay, now that I have that out of my system (well, I’m still mad and could rant for hours but…whatever)
Ugh
This sucks
I had to take 50 tests over Spanish on the inter net
How do those poor Hispanic children ever learn their numbers?
They’re so stinkin confoozling
I mean 4,971.789 is 4.971,729
Well, it’s not confusing for them…again, whatever
March 17th, 2008 08:07
Its ok Amy-la, we will get you help!!!!
You got grounded for reading?
March 17th, 2008 08:11
Yeah
it poops
March 17th, 2008 08:12
you should just be glad to be out of school. my spring break doesn’t start untill Thursday.
that means monday is a make-up/review day, and Tuesday and Wednesday are finals. bleh. finals suck. and i’m so scared to take my art final. i know it sounds easy but my teacher is really awful and she makes it so confusing and tricky. grr… i don’t like her. but no worries cuz as soon as tuesday is over i will never have to listen to her talk or take another one of her tricky tests again, which is very happy-making to me. instead i’ll be in journalism… double yay! cuz that is like an hour and 30 minutes of writing stories and maybe some taking pictures! i can’t wait for it. hehe.
aww. that sucks Netta-la. grounded and you have to learn decimals in spanish! i hope i never have to do that. i probably will though because i want to take the full four years of spanish…not just the required two that let you get into a university.
March 17th, 2008 08:14
I had my last day of tech Friday
it was a joyful moment when that bell rang
The funny thing is
I can still read
just no computer
my parents aren’t home though and my computer was already on due to a gazillion online Spanish tests we have to take and then have our parents PROVE we took so….I is being sneaky
March 17th, 2008 08:16
don’t forget to delete your history of being on westerblog. other wise they can click the history button and bam! you’ll be grounded longer.
March 17th, 2008 08:21
i is a procrastinator.
list of things i should be doing but i’m not:
-going to the hospital to see me grandma.
-history review wksht
-art review wksht
-draw tiger
-finish art wkshts
-art extra credit
-spanish review packet
-spanish flashcards
-math extra credit
-cleaning my rooms
-finishing my book<–that’s the only thing i actually WANT to do.
March 17th, 2008 08:23
Whoa
stubbing your toe can give you a REALLY bad headache
luckily, that can’t happen because my parents don’t know MY password to the internet (which the treally should since THEY set it) and my history is only saved under my internet account
oh and they don’t my computer password either so they can’t get on my computer
haha
I’m a procrastinator too
I was rereading books for the 50th time instead of doing my homework until my parents left (well I only have two questions to answer so they didn’t really care
I is sorry you have so much to do
doesn’t sound fun
March 17th, 2008 08:23
oh. why. does. time. run. out. so. fast?
monday. comes. too. quick.
not. enough. weekend.
too. much. crap.
not. enough. fun.
ugh.
March 17th, 2008 08:28
crap is one of my new favorite words (which is kinda funny considering I was trying to sstop saying it)
but my car I made in tech is named ‘Bodies of Water in the Middle East’
Caspian Sea
Read Sea
Arabian Sea
Persian Gulf
his nickname is C.R.A.P.
March 17th, 2008 08:34
Red Sea
not Read Sea
and stop not sstop
March 17th, 2008 08:55

HaHa, his nickname’s crap. lOfL Laugh out Freakin Loud!
I have noticed things, many things. And one of those things is that if you like something, say art, and then you take a class for it, you most likely don’t like it as much after. Someone very smart once said(although I have no freakin clue who said it and frankly I don’t give a crap) “Ignorance is Bliss.”

You know how there are technical terms for fears, like uh claustrophia? Well I was bored so I decided to get on the computer and look some up. And you know what’s hilarious? The fear of long words is called HIPPOPOTOMONSTROSESQUIPPEDALIOPHOBIA. I mean seriously dude! I guess people can’t tell them what’s wrong with them or they’d like spazz out or something. Anyone else think that’s kinda hypocritical?
March 17th, 2008 10:25
Yeah it’s like your at a phsyciatrist and they are like, “Oh so youre a -long word here-.” and the person goes insane
March 17th, 2008 10:38
HaHa, I imagine the person jumping out a second story window as the psychiatrist says it and then the psychiatrist is all “crap there goes another client.”
March 17th, 2008 11:37
Hahaha, i could see that.
Doc- Bran-la, you have Hjahsvfjehutbjcbawyeigwygeidx Gjasjwfdb

March 17th, 2008 11:51
- “Arachibutyrophobia- Fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth.”
-”Atelophobia- Fear of imperfection.”
-”Aurophobia- Fear of gold.”
-”Auroraphobia- Fear of Northern lights.”
-” Aviophobia or Aviatophobia- Fear of flying.” (i have this)
-” Barophobia- Fear of gravity.” (hahahaha)
-” Chrometophobia or Chrematophobia- Fear of money.” (what the heck?)
-” Cyclophobia- Fear of bicycles.” (uhhhhh)
-” Dromophobia- Fear of crossing streets.”
-” Epistemophobia- Fear of knowledge.” (how scary!!)
-” Ephebiphobia- Fear of teenagers.” (my mom requested this one)
And these where only a handful of the mellions of funny ones. From
http://www.phobialist.com/
March 17th, 2008 11:52
Francophobia- Fear of France or French culture. (Gallophobia, Galiophobia) srry this ones is just SOOOO funny!
March 17th, 2008 11:57
haha that website is on my favs
i confuzzle my friends by telling them what phobias they may or may not have
March 17th, 2008 12:02
I put some of them on my aim profile! hahaha
March 17th, 2008 12:03
Ankylophobia- Fear of immobility of a joint.
i have this
it freaks me out if i cant move my joints
when i was lil my cuz said that if i keeped my legs straight and knees locked for 5 minutes i wouldnt be able to move them so ever since then i was always afraid id be unable to move my joints
March 17th, 2008 12:19
My friend when she stands she automatically locks her legs. It’s kind of wierd.
I love Superman/Tom Welling!!!!
March 17th, 2008 13:11
I heard Uglies is going to be a movie is that true? Well I still think it should be!
March 17th, 2008 14:32
Yeah that’s the site I found it on and it’s H-I-L-A-R-I-O-U-S!
I have atychiphobia-fear of failure.
I’m about to go into a major writing coma, no telling when I’ll snap back into reality.
March 17th, 2008 15:18
i have that fear too TZ. i probably have atelophobia-fear of imperfections too. and the fear of letting other people down… if there is one.
i wonder if there is a fear of drawing tigers. no actually i’m not really afraid of drawing tigers. i’m more afraid of what my teacher will say about my “tiger” because it doesn’t exactly look like one. lol.
ughh.. dang tiger.
March 17th, 2008 15:47
Yeah, it’s weird though because I can handle failure once it actually happens, like I can deal with it. But I can’t stand the feeling I get when I know I’m not going to make it or that I’m going to mess up and let someone down.
March 17th, 2008 16:41
yeah exactly. feeling like you have to be perfect all the time sucks! and i kinda have that feeling right now because of finals and art. cuz all my classes i have A’s but in art i have an 84 which isn’t exactly good enough for my standards or my parents. hopefully it’ll go up once she grades my sketchbook. i feel like i’m on a rollercoaster though because my grade in their keeps going up and down. first it was a 97 then i missed a week of school and it went all the way down to a 68 and then i turned in a bunch of stuff and it went up to a 93 then the next day it was back down to a 78 and now it’s up to an 84. but i can’t take all these up’s where i feel like i’m gonna be okay and then suddenly the floor just drops from underneath me and my grade is back down to lower than i want it. (and i haven’t gotten anything but A’s since the first quarter of 6th grade when i got a B+ in s.s. but now it’s like a whole new level of pressure because colleges are going to be looking at these grades.) ughh.. too much stress. but at least i can sleep now. (12:40 a.m. where i am.) goodnight.
March 17th, 2008 18:39
I think after my french class today, I definately has francophobia. srsly, this guy asks the teacher “can i pleaze go to the bathroom”, and Madame Harris said no. So the guy squirts water from his drinkbottle all over his trousers, and then he goes “miss, miss, I had an accident!” we were all cracking up laughing, and Madame Harris said some bad words in French. so yes…
March 17th, 2008 22:38
OMG that is so hilarious!!!:)
I wish I had your French class. If someone did that in my class the teacher would just about faint. She’s too old to have a sense of humer about anything.
Yay I’ve read 86 authors on the list. I feel so special now.
March 18th, 2008 01:44
I suck in math. I ca never have an A in that class. I’m either failing it or really close to failing it. im hoping this project we have will allow me to do better on my grade but with all the test i have gotten back lately…….im not so sure!
March 18th, 2008 06:50
I do okay in math, I have an A and it’s 2 levels higher than most kids my age
I never took 7th grade math…very odd…
I use that phobia list to find tridecalogisms
March 18th, 2008 08:11
I have 100% exactly in math. but i’m in the regular math class which is really lame cuz i’m the smartest one in there and i have to wait for everyone else to understand it. suckish much.
today was really very interesting. it started off like usual. but then my art teacher was all nice to me. it was weird. and she kept telling me how much she loved my mixed media project. which again is odd. cuz usually she hates everything i do. and then i went to spanish and we played this review game for finals and i was up against this *insert bad word here* who went all phsyco on me. she like flipped out cuz i had my answer before she did and mine was right and her’s wasn’t. and she still thought the point was hers. and she got all sassy and was yellin and the teacher told her to stop the sasafras then she proceded to call me sassy and stuff then sat down and called me a *insert bad word here.* it was weird. the whole class was just like wow. it’s a stupid game. get over yourself. and she had to stay after class so the teacher could talk to her. lol. then later in math i was playin with my necklace and this girl told me i had a bruse on my chest and i couldn’t see and then the guy i like came over and he stood there staring at my chest for like a minute and then his friend came over and did the same and i was just like stop staring at my chest. ughh… it was incredibly awkward. and it turned out that the necklace i had on had black paint on the back that wore off onto my chest. it’s been a weird day.
so how did everyone else’s day go?
March 18th, 2008 09:12
happy st. patty’s day, evry1!!
yea, we have a lot of irish in us….heehee….
oooo another good one: averylongandconfusingword-fear of school…..
k, so i was painting my nails green in my room this morning, and so i went down and mom was like “u were doing work up there, right?” and i was like “ummm…..no” and she was like “what were u doing up there?” and i was like “ummmm makimg myself green” and yea.
last year i got all A’s, so i was on first honers all 4 quarters….so yea……………………………………………
gtg……….
March 18th, 2008 10:16
Is Scott even DOING Blogfest? It doesn’t look as if he’s made any posts and it’s already day four…
March 18th, 2008 10:40
lol kay-wa. awwwkward day hehe. I hate when people flip out over completely pointless stuff like that. makes me want to punch them or something. though i cant really do that in school, unless i want to get expelled..hmm..
i gotten all A’s since the first quarter in sixth grade, so I’ve got pretty high expectations too. *sigh*
My day has been rather boring though, as were on spring break, so i slept half the day and pretty much read the other half. lol.
I too, Topaz am still awaiting Scotts post. Maybe he’s waiting till the end and will put up one post with all the questions aswered. That would be Fawesome.
March 18th, 2008 11:13

March 18th, 2008 13:14

My math teacher says that I will make it into Algebra 2 (I’ve already taken half the course so I’m not surprised)
And all I have for homework tonight is to get a folder for art and a spanish packet
I’m also reoganizing my binder but that’s my project
March 19th, 2008 07:55

March 19th, 2008 10:31
Hola Peoples! Como estas?(sorry don’t know how to do the upside down ?) or Bonjour peoples! Comment allez vous?
Yeah so um…I kinda wrote a poem, can you guys tell me if it’s majorly suckish?
In the darkened hall,
Murmuring spirits pass, by and by,
To her knees may she fall,
Searching for something, something in the shadowed sky,
Insanity is a question, though many have asked,answers are hidden out of reach,
For were we all sane, would this horrid world, this wretched life, be the same?
Life goes on and on, a circle in which we live and teach,
Oh please, though my shepherd,must my thoughts become tame?
It’s a wonder how glorious things are everywhere,
Then become cruel in the beat of a heart,
But we travel on by and by,without a care,
Pretending all is right, passing the death that becomes a dart,
But a dream, a memory, love.
All Gone, gone like a passing dove.
————————————————————————-
Well um yeah there it is…
March 19th, 2008 10:55

“ich bin mucho bordo und habe el headache.”
*sigh* i need something to do.

March 20th, 2008 11:59
I know some Spanish, but I’m better at French. And I wasn’t happy cuz I bombed my Math test. Grrrr….now I have to retake it.

March 20th, 2008 12:48
i hate when its not showing my work
i mean they know you do it all on a calculater anyway
March 20th, 2008 13:06
I know! What’s he think? That I’m cheating or something? I’m physically incapable of being sneaky plus I’ve got a huge conscience, I’d never be able to pull it off.
