A lot of Bogus to Bubbly, the Uglies guide I’ve been working on, has to do with the real-life science behind the series. So I’ve been refreshing my research on hoverboards, nanos, and mag-levs, to see how much present-day technology has changed since I started working on the series six years ago.
The crazy thing is how many of the technologies in the books are already here, or almost here. It seems like every time I open a newspaper, I get a little dose of Tally’s world.
But here’s a scary one for you. You’ll probably remember a plant in the books called “the white weed.” It was a genetically modified orchid that grew rampant in the post-Rusty-Crash world, choking other vegetation and leaving vast fields of arid land in its wake.
Well, a brain-rattling article in the NY Times today suggests that an age of weeds may be a lot closer than 300 years from now, and won’t even require any genetic engineering mishaps to occur.
Here’s why in a nutshell:
1) The crops we grow and eat these days have very little genetic diversity. Why? Because we’ve bred them that way. We want them to grow quickly and at exactly the same rate, so we can cut them all down and ship them at the same time. Commercial processes love sameness. (Modern-day crops are more like Pringles than old-school, random-looking potato chips.)
2) Weeds are not all the same. They’ve evolved tremendous variety while taking advantage of every little crack in the sidewalk. And as we attack them with herbicides, we actually increase that diversity. They evolve and adapt under our constant barrage.
3) The climate is changing. In 1957, the CO2 level in the atmosphere was 310ppm. These days it’s 385 ppm. (Yes, the climate has changed before, but in the geological record, swings like that usually take thousands of years. Our Rusty ways have managed it in 50 years. Last year alone, the carbon level went up almost 2.5ppm.)
4) Here’s where it gets freaky. Weeds thrive in changing climates, because they are a diverse population. Our food crops hate change, because they’re all the same. (Like, if you put Pringles in the wrong-shaped can, they’d all break. You can chuck those old-fashioned random chips in any old bag and they’re fine.)
5) So . . . if we change the climate quickly enough, the weeds win.
To test this hypothesis, a scientist named Lewis Ziska did an amazing controlled experiment. He transfered big blocks of the exact same soil to several locations and let them go fallow and weedy. Out in the country (with average 385ppm air) the weeds grew six to eight feet tall. But in downtown Baltimore (which, thanks to all the cars, has air with about 440ppm CO2) the same weed species grew ten to twelve feet tall!
The weeds love our Rusty ways.

The most brilliant thing about this experiment is Ziska’s use of an urban center, with its hotter, CO2-laden air, as an analog for our planet 30-50 years in the future. Go hang out in downtown Baltimore sometime in August and you’ll see the world we’re leaving our grandchildren. (Oh, wait, only 30 years? I mean our children. Oh, wait . . . I mean you.)
The good news in the article is that weeds may be beneficial in some ways. Growing quickly means they suck up CO2, and maybe we can use them in biofuels, which would take some of the pressure off food prices. And the other good news is that although the funding for Ziska’s work (along with all climate change research) has been repeatedly cut over the last seven years, the folks who cut it are relinquishing power on January 20, 2009.
Bogus to Bubbly is available for pre-order from Amazon now.
Update: You can now pre-order from Barnes and Noble and Powells as well!
June 30th, 2008 05:15
wow
June 30th, 2008 05:18
ooh its able to pre-order I didnt notice that,
EEEEEEEEEEEEE! so happy, but the weed things kinda creepy, our worlds messed up
June 30th, 2008 05:22
Yay! Preorder. I can’t wait. =)
But the weed thing is seriously weird. Dx Maybe we should begin adapting our crops for the future…
June 30th, 2008 05:31
You would think, if we can do that to weeds why not our crops
June 30th, 2008 05:32
*nodnod* Especially since the weeds are almost doing it to themselves.
June 30th, 2008 05:36
Don’t forgett about the OIL BUG that destroyed the Rusty civilization! Yes it IS being made right now in california! google ‘oil bug’ do the Time article it’s all there!
RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!
(tho the bug being our ‘main’ source of fuel is sorta ridiculous.
June 30th, 2008 05:39
Scott, I can’t tell you how much I <3 you!
You’re on my top ten list with Richard Dawkins and Darwin himself. Yay for science in YA!
I see Tally’s world everywhere I look. NPR was having a discussion recently about what we should call the “uncontacted” tribe of people living in the Amazon. I want to dub them the Andrew Simpson Smith tribe.
Emily
P.S. Please post when you find actual hoverboards available – I want one in the worst way.
June 30th, 2008 05:43
you know Darwin took back his theory of evolution.
no one believed him. :[
June 30th, 2008 05:49
the weed things kind of creepy. But exactly what is a weed?
June 30th, 2008 06:12
Yeah, Emily, we should call the tribe something like that. I prefer the term ‘pre-Rusties’, though. =P
June 30th, 2008 06:27
juli-wa what do u mean? a weed is a plant that invades the space of other plants and vegitation by choking them. usually spreading rapidly. (i think)
June 30th, 2008 06:39
Wow. That was interesting, cool, and also scary. I liked how you compared crops to pringles. lol!
June 30th, 2008 06:43
I think it is dumb that Pringles can’t be called potato chips… they have to be called potatp crisps.
They are made of potatos and they are chips.
I feel sorry for pringles. In our store, they aren’t even by the chips, they are by the nuts. The “real” chips are in a different isle.
June 30th, 2008 06:45
woah, the weed thing is scary-making…
but the pre-order thing is happy-making!!!
June 30th, 2008 06:51
freaky-deaky…
June 30th, 2008 07:03
Nice analogy Scott-la! LoL, but that’s like totally creepy…are you sure you’re not psychic??? *starts playing Twilight Zone music* Rofl, I’m off to preorder Bogus to Bubbly!
June 30th, 2008 07:11
Oh, us Rusties are sooo smooth… though I don’t really want to imagine a weed-related apocalypse, though now it seems somewhat likely… *shudders*
~i
June 30th, 2008 08:20
Haha, this plant taking over stuff reminds me about The Happening. I can’t wait for Bogus to Bubbly. I had so many questions while reading the books.
June 30th, 2008 08:33
AAARRRRGGG!!!!!
If we use biofuels for power, then we will be MAKING THE WHITE WEED!! :0
Biofuels are weeds that spread very, very fast. If we plant biofuels everywhere, they will spread out of control and take over the world!
Biofuels crops also catch on fire really fast and easily, just like the white weed!
NO BIOFUELS!
I can’t wait for Bogus to Bubbly it will be AWESOME
Also has anyone relised that there are only 6 charaters in the books that you know their full names!!???
Tally Youngblood
Aya Fuse
Hiro Fuse
Frizz Mizuno
Maximilla Feaster
I know thats off topic, but yeah
June 30th, 2008 09:11
Other interesting fact: i was watching the new Futurama movie the other day (a respectable addition to the Canon of Total Awesomeness) and they were totally hoverboarding.
June 30th, 2008 09:14
and this reminds me about other things i’ve read about how warmer global climate would help poison ivy basically take over the world—that global warming would totally cause a worldwide plague of poison ivy.
Also, this time i actually got in the top twenty comments! as opposed to number 300, like last time.
June 30th, 2008 09:42
Yay for pre-order!
I really love Baltimore… It would be a really big shame to see it so bogus. *tear*
Oh, and by the way, DON’T go to downtown Baltimore in August. Your brains will be consumed by the summer heat. Heat exhaustion is an ugly thing.
June 30th, 2008 09:43
I remember learning about all of this for the Bio Regents. Unfortunately it wasn’t on the test. This stuff is fawesome and scary. *Happy dance* Yay! Bogus to Bubbly is available for pre-order! I have to go do that.
June 30th, 2008 09:54
Joey-la, don’t forget Nana Loves.
June 30th, 2008 10:15
Serafina Zane,
I haven’t gotten to the Midnighters series (yet), but I want Uglies/ Peeps like they have Land Before Times, Star Trek revivals, viruses, etc.
I’m not surprised about the article. Nature has a way of balancing itself and kicking ass (sometimes in the form of Tally Youngblood).
*preorders*
June 30th, 2008 10:17
geesh! us rusties need to wake up and realize that were sending ourselves into a world full of bad stuff (i dont want to die from a oil bug!) and the plant thing, its kinda scary, with that biofuels thing Joey-la was talking about.
June 30th, 2008 10:37
That’s just horrible. I mean, it’s amazing how everyday we’re being proven just how powerful nature is and it’s amazing ability to survive through ANYTHING, but I still can’t believe that we’ve managed to inadvertantly make even weeds able to kill and cause devestation. Goooo humans!
Anyway. Can’t wait for Bogus to Bubbly:) And Leviathan! You need to finish! Fast! Go!
June 30th, 2008 10:46
Ohhhh GREAT POST!
Maybe weeds will save the human race!
That would be a great twist!
If you haven’t already seen The 11th Hour,
you totally should!
Global Warming is an interestin thing!
June 30th, 2008 10:51
Wow…that’s…um…scary. To think that we are that close to being taken over be weeds. And at this point what can we do? We don’t kill them and they destroy us, or we kill them and they become stronger…well that’s a pickle.
I’ve recently gotten my brother to read Uglies, and his response was to come for the weekend to retrieve the rest of the series (he lives 2 hours away). He has since decided to go completely eco-friendly [:
June 30th, 2008 10:59
Wow, us humans are really…horrible…
Those weeds sound a little scary though….
I really want to pre-order Bogus to Bubbly (ever since your last post about it) but my mom won’t let me…yet…
I will preorder it though.
June 30th, 2008 11:22
*cringes* Weeds taking over the world, god that sounds just like what our econmy needs.
One another global warming note, I watched a movie in schice class about solar pannels that shocked me. There’s a place in the middle of the desert (in America) that gets enough sunlight that if we were to put enough solar pannels there, we would be able to power all of America (it was kinda biased in favor of solar pannels so they might have been exagerating a bit)!
Honestly though, I don’t get why people don’t AT LEAST use those CFO (I think it is, sorry if I sound kinda stupid I only know them by brand name). If everyone changed just ONE lightbulb to one it would close like 20 (give or take a few) powerplants.
June 30th, 2008 11:23
Wow I think that’s the most I’ve ever said about global warming haha
June 30th, 2008 11:49
omg thats insane!!!!!!!! but yet…im not surprised at all..is that a bad thing to say??
June 30th, 2008 11:53
Weeeee Im happy now
listening to FAWSOME Ska music
(Reel Big Fish&Sublime, look em up)
June 30th, 2008 12:20
i always check this website rite after a new thing is posted.
ill comment again after i read this.
June 30th, 2008 12:20
Wow. That is a lot of information to process…it may take awhile.
June 30th, 2008 12:26
It’s amazing how some of the technologies in the uglies series are found in our modern day society. The carbon dioxide in the cities from cars just makes me even madder about the environment’s condition. I just saw Wall-E (i have the same name as his girlfriend, lol) and the Earth was covered in garbage. I hope this NEVER happens. We need to make a change.
June 30th, 2008 12:41
i never really thought of the world being destroyed by weeds, but that’s really interesting as well as freaky.
Scott’s a prophet…Tally’s world is popping up everywhere! unfortunately, it’s the cool stuff AND the world-destroying stuff that’s coming…
yay!! can’t wait for Bogus to Bubbly!!
i’ll keep stocking up on borders gift cards…:-)
June 30th, 2008 13:08
I would love to say something brilliant, but I think you’ve said it all.
And that really is frightening. Scott, one day Uglies will be the “1984″ of the future, except it might more accurate– which I suppose would be bad.
<3
June 30th, 2008 14:08
yeah, but the Nana in Nana love is a term of respect, like Hiro Sensi or something!
June 30th, 2008 14:12
yeah, but the Nana in Nana love is a term of respect, like Hiro Sensi or something!
–x-
Still, you missed Anderw Simpson Smith… =/
June 30th, 2008 14:13
BTW: I just found this and it disturbed me, and of course I immediately thought of Uglies::
**Computer Taught To Recognize Attractiveness In Women**
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/04/080404122139.htm
<3
June 30th, 2008 14:18
Wow. Yeah. And a lot of the criteria sounded similar to the standards in the series.
June 30th, 2008 15:20
Wow…I would not be suprised if we wound up in the Uglies era..
June 30th, 2008 15:36
“…always look on the bright side of life, de dum, de dum, de dum, de dum.”
Scott, you may have missed your calling as presenter of science ideas on NPR. Thanks for scary rundown.
June 30th, 2008 16:13
WEE! thunder/lightning storm gotta love ‘em
I dont think Ill be able to sleep
Ive been looking at creepypasta
June 30th, 2008 16:47
That computer attractiveness thing is just creepy. The Pretty Commitee is going to be a bunch of computers!
How horrible would that be? Especially if they start thinking that something weird is beautiful, considering that they’d have AI. Say one of them all of the sudden decides that purple skin is beautiful, or that green hair is beautiful. One could only imagine what would happen to the human race!
June 30th, 2008 17:19
I suggest we send copies of “Uglies” to everyone in the world and then spell out “you’re next” with weeds all over the streets of Baltimore… or not…
June 30th, 2008 22:49
thats really interesting but im not really surprised. When i was reading Uglies and about the Rusties, i was thinking that its only a matter of time before something like the oil changing chemical actually does happen, not to be pessamistic, but…we’re to consumed with money, we have to start focusing on trying to fix the climate change BEFORE there’s another ice age. (ex. day after tomorow((the movie))) i hate when people tell me when im explaining global warming that it’s supposed to be happening. YAH! every couple thousand years, not every 30. As much as i hate to admit it, we are the rusties, the killing machines. we care more about money than actually staying alive.
***(by the way, Shannen-Wa, thats a good idea.)
June 30th, 2008 23:05
one more thing, abigail-wa, what do u mean. when he says the oil bug, he doesnt mean that is the main source of energy, oil is and the bug makes it explode. AKA. we all die. i love tally!!!! shay too cept she gets mad alot, but she totally a BA.
I SO WANT A HOVERBOARD TOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
********go green.
(also, is u see on the news that theres an oil eating bug and we have to evacuate, shut off the tv, and WALK out. itll take slower, but u wont DIE.)
June 30th, 2008 23:32
i know, but this little bug is supposed to make our oil. it has been created out of a serious bacteria, they say it won’t harm the fuel and they’ll destroy them, but what if the oil being from mutated bacteria makes our cars blow up? or if they get in the oil???
June 30th, 2008 23:54
When I get a car I want one of those smart cars, they run on I think it’s hydrogen (I’m not completely sure) and instead of putting in bad stuff into the air it gives off water vapor.
Haha I like the weed idea.
July 1st, 2008 00:06
Yay January 20 2009!
July 1st, 2008 03:53
YO-LA PARTY PEEPS!
)
Ok, maybe you aren’t party peeps… but hi anyway.
I’m back from THE BEST WEEK OF MY LIFE that i can think of right now. it was SERIOUSLY METAPHORICALDRPEPPERTASTICALLY SWIMTASTICAL!
Andrea-la knows how cool that would be then
I’m not reading comments posted after i left from the last blog. There are most ikely oo many. If anyone said something directed towards me or think i’d like to hear, you’ll have to repeat it, sorry
July 1st, 2008 03:54
for the record, i did not post #7. That is another emily…
July 1st, 2008 04:40
wow creepy.
July 1st, 2008 05:08
That’s some seriously deppressing news.
July 1st, 2008 05:37
Wow, that was 6 years ago? Doesn’t seem that long.
Isn’t it scary how on the nose you were with some of the book? It’ll probably just get worse as the years progress. I think a lot of sci-fi authors write their books like they’re worst-case scenarios for the world, and then everyone’s surprised how much it turned out like they said it would. Like some people reading books like Uglies probably think, “no way could the climate get that bad because of us!”, when it already is.
July 1st, 2008 06:47
omg Scott thats like… scary. i mean, itd b totally bubbly if Tally’s whole world came in2 existence, wat w all the neato technologies & all…(& maybe the whole bubbleheaded thing wouldnt hurt, 4 a while @ least. i mean, we have completely bogus wars going on, and now the possibility of a secret war! they [the doctors & scientists] cud always have the full-fleged bubbleheadedness, & then, after a while, gradually reduce it down 2 where we wudnt need it anymor, and if we get back in2 wars & stuff, we can always bring it back– evn tho thats not everybody’s favorite option– unless, of course, by that time the whole Tally rebellion thingie with the cures & stuff hav already happened by then…..) but, yea, scary-slash-awesome! (the awesome part bieng that u cn pre-order bogus to bubbly!! btw, wen is that coming out? or did Scott-sama already say? i dont member.
bye guys!
July 1st, 2008 07:32
It’s like Kudzu farming.
July 1st, 2008 10:12
Did you guys know theres a Ska band called The Specials they started in 1977 their pretty good
July 1st, 2008 11:24
thats really scary its one of the many scary things about climate change especialy since it will be left to our genertion
July 1st, 2008 13:12
All who think Scott-sama has some freaky-deaky psychic powers, raise your hand.
*RAISES HAND*
July 1st, 2008 13:14
that is terrifying. my heart rate just sped up enormously. It’s so scary…sometimes I get scared that we’ll be nuked before I ever get to be an old lady, but then I realize what the world will be like when I’m an old lady, and I wonder…
July 1st, 2008 13:14
wow. freaky.
i’m having soooo much fun at my cabin on the Mississippi river.
we’re going to hit the sandbars tomorrow.
and then i have to go home wednesday.
well i suppose i should go. babysitting.
talk to you guys wednesday or something.
laters.
July 1st, 2008 13:18
too….many….comments….
just got back from the beach, we went there over the weekend…very fun, read like three books, and then some…
i haaaate summer reading, cuz i’ve read like 2/3 of the books i needa read, and they’re the kinda books i like the first time, but DON’T WANNA READ AGAIN. sigh. there are some very good aspects of homeschooling…
my uncle just moved here, cuz he got a job here, and we hardly ever saw him before but now we’ll se him so much, so YAY!
i dunno y i’m so hyper, i only had like 2 sips of caffinated coke, then i stuck to caffine free….
dyk that in the ranger’s apprentice series, there are SEVEN books in australia, but only FOUR books in the US?!?!?!?? sigh. i HATE WAITING! as u may c, i’m not that patient.
okay, i have a personality test….
there is a veeeery tall coconut tree, and four animals pass by: a squirrel, a lion, a giraffe, and a chimpanzee. they decide to have a contest to see who can bring down a bunch of bananas the quickest. who do u think will win????
try to take 15…no, 13, to make it anit-darkling, seconds to answer this, then scroll down…………..
if u answered:
lion, you’re dull,
chimpanzee, you’re a moron
giraffe, you’re a complete idiot
or
squirrel, you’re hopelessly stupid…
WHY?
because it’s a COCONUT tree. emphasis on COCONUT.
A COCONUT TREE DOESN’T HAVE BANANAS.
Obviously you’re stressed and overworked.
You should take some time off and relax!
Try again next year.
i just got a kick outta that….
btw, i was a complete idiot. shocker there.
July 1st, 2008 13:50
UMR-wa you have the devil comment… it’s comment 66 and UMR-wa has 6 characters in it…
i didn’t understand what scott-la said on the post. O_o Maybe it’s the fact that it’s summer and my brain is probably frying in the heat…
July 1st, 2008 13:57
yes, aren’t we the lucky ones…we get to deal with all this.
July 1st, 2008 14:28
oh my gosh this is like so awsome it makes me so excited i just can’t wait till the day when there is hover boards and flash tatoos *screams*
July 1st, 2008 14:29
i am so so so so so so so happy
July 1st, 2008 15:07
I assume you’re just talsking about the technology and not the whole ‘weeds take over the world’ thing…
July 1st, 2008 15:34
i don’t think anybody’s super excited about weeds taking over the world…unless you’ve got an obsession with weeds…
July 1st, 2008 15:50
no, if you read the article, weeds aren’t going to take over the world. in fact, weeds will end up saving us once climate change causes all our regular crops to die out…
July 1st, 2008 18:14
You know what’s cool though?
My sociology teacher would always say, “You guys are capable of changing the world. We’ve all screwed up and now it’s up to you to save the planet. YOU ARE THE DIFFERENCE!”
He was kind of a spaz.
But I realized more and more that he was right.
It’s cool about the plants, but predictable, since plants love carbon dioxide and thrive on it to live – without CO2 (I’m incapable of making the two a subscript), plants couldn’t survive. It’s a great balance we have with them – they excrete oxygene for us and we give them back carbon dioxide. So of course, the more carbon dioxide there is, the bigger and faster the plants grow.
Really, really cool.
July 2nd, 2008 02:32
i really didn’t get the post, either…it probly is the summer and heat etc. i sometimes can’t even remember the day of the week!!!!
July 2nd, 2008 05:42
haha, same here UMR-wa. I think today is… wednesday?
Nope, it’s tuesday. I checked the day of the week on my computer and it’s tuesday, July 1. HEY! Independence Day, the 4th of July as we Americans call it, is in THREE DAYS! Idk what my family is doing this year… Usually we go to Stone Mountain located in Atlanta, GA for the 4th of July. But I went in May with my class and we’re a little tight with money, so we cant go anywhere… this shall be a boring 4th of July.
July 2nd, 2008 05:49
Ah i’m so mad. I have three games i feel like playing on the computer-
1. Roller Coaster Tycoon 2
Reason i cannot play it- lost CD.
2. Virtual Magic Kingdom (virtual internet game)
Reason i cannot play it- Disney closed it last month -.-
3. the original Sims games
Reason i cannot play it- it would take me two days straight to load every all of them on the computer, IF we even have all of them still. My brother, who owns them, probably got rid of most of them. All we have is the delux edition and “House Party” expansion, so id probably get bored…
RAWR!
July 2nd, 2008 06:46
scary about the ominous Rusty days looming over us, but a good bright side about how the weeds can possibly help us rather than hurt us. Yaaaay~ pre-order Bogus to Bubbly! They have it on Barnes & Noble.com! Listening to “Vindicated” by Dashboard Confessional, it makes me sigh, it’s totally an Edward song I love it!! Hopefully our generation will be smart enough to fix the world.
July 2nd, 2008 13:00
Oh wow. I learned something. Facebook emails suck. Anyone on?
July 2nd, 2008 13:35
I guess no one is on. I just updated my blog.
July 2nd, 2008 13:41
I’m on. But I prefer to stay on the specials and extras spoiler boards or discussion questions board {though I posted a question on Scott facts today}
Interesting comment about minds on you blog, btw.
July 2nd, 2008 14:15
lol. I’m half asleep right now.
July 2nd, 2008 14:47
Sorry. I was looking at the uglies pictures on deviantart. They need more Shay pictures x_x
July 2nd, 2008 16:20
hi anyone on?
July 2nd, 2008 19:03
Sort of,not really, sleep deprived…can’t keep eyes open…will be back tomorrow…
July 3rd, 2008 00:58
Hellos, anyone here?
July 3rd, 2008 01:00
we watched room with a view last night, till midnight, and for some reason i got up at 9:30. AM!! i’m weird. like, really really weird. of course, everyone probably already knows that.
i think….today’s wednesday. or something like that. 4th of july is only TWO DAYS AWAY! i have no idea what we’re gonna do for the fourth this year. we might have a cookout with my grandparents and my uncle (who just moved here from ohio!!! yippeeeeeeee!!!!)…that’d be fun, and maybe our two cousins could come too. my other cousins on my dad’s side r aaaaaaaaaaaaaaalll the way across the country, so i doubt they’ll be able to come out. sigh. life is sometimes so annoying.
i dunno y i’m awake soooo early–it’s only ten AM!! sigh. i confuse myself a lot.
i’m gonna go work on my story….
cul8r…
July 3rd, 2008 01:01

IIIIIIIIII’MMMMMMMMMMMMMM HEEEEEEEEEEEERE
July 3rd, 2008 01:05
we’re almost up to 100 comments……………….
do u have any book suggestions??
July 3rd, 2008 01:05
It’s 9am here. I’m so proud of myself. I slept in.
July 3rd, 2008 01:06
i’m almost done with the septimus heap books, and i finished the maximum ride books….any good suggestions?
July 3rd, 2008 01:06
Book suggestions….I read Midnighters for the first and second time during the weekend. I also read How to be Popular by Meg Cabot.
July 3rd, 2008 01:06
i’m guessing that you’re a morning person…..
getting up at 9:30 is reeeeeeeeeeally early for me
July 3rd, 2008 01:07
how to be popular meg cabot…..one sec i needa check the liberry….
one second
July 3rd, 2008 01:08
One second…and yes. If I sleep in past 5:30, it’s an acomplishment.
July 3rd, 2008 01:10
Oh, and right now I’m reading The Mind and The Brain by Jeffery M. Schwartz and Sharon Begley. It’s really interesting. It’s not really a teen book though. I kinda stole it off my dad’s shelf.
July 3rd, 2008 01:11
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr my comment is ‘awaiting moderation’
how annoying.
in case it doesn’t show up, here it is again:
YIKES!!! ur just like my younger brother (tho we look like twins, he’s only like 3 inches shorter than me even tho he’s 2 years younger–i know, scary) who gets up like, at the cracka dawn every morning. //inwardly shudders// it creeps me out…
i’ll think about that book…thnx 4 the suggestion!
what’re u gonna do today?
i don’t really know what the ‘awaiting moderation’ thingey means, but w/e.
July 3rd, 2008 01:13
my dad’s into scifi, and tho i luv scifi movies, i just can’t do the books. so whenever i need something to read, he suggests these like 1000 (ok, that may be an exageration, but u get the pic) page books that to me look rather boring (no offense to him, of course) and i’m just like ‘thanks, but no thnx’. so then i go bug my oldest sis, until she lets me look at her bookshelf. //shrugs// it’s just the way my life goes.
July 3rd, 2008 01:14
what does it mean, anyways, the ‘Your comment is awaiting moderation.’ thing??? it bugs me.
July 3rd, 2008 01:14
Hey hey hey peeps. You think 9 AM is sleeping in, Andrea-la… I slept until like 12 noon yesterday. Although I didn’t go to sleep until like midnight, and woke up at four in the morning and couldn’t sleep for like half an hour…
hehe… Once Upon A Marigold was good too, it’s a little more Juvenille than most books I read, but it’s still considered a novel. Obviously Harry Potter books rock. Not as much as Scott-la’s books, but still. I’d sugest Twilight, but I can’t stand reading New Moon, it’s so boring sofar…
Hmm, book suggestions…
well, obviously scott westerfeld books. Fever 1793 is my favorite single-book. I liked series of unfortunate events, but it gets confusing and uses run-on sentences alot. I just read a book called Comedy Girl, it was good, and I finished Pish Posh, which was a good book. It’s considered a teen book at my library, but it’s not really much of a teen book. I read The Chicken Dance recently, too, it’s really good, especially if you like books with twists… um In the Chat Room with God
so yea. I’ll add more later.
July 3rd, 2008 01:15
Where did you see ‘your comment is awaiting moderation’ UMR-wa?
July 3rd, 2008 01:16
YAY Emily-wa is on!!! I might be destracted. I’m googleing gluten free restrants in minniaplolis.
July 3rd, 2008 01:17
And I’m also updating my blog. Even though I just did last night.
July 3rd, 2008 01:18
wow andrea-la. The week I leave for camp is the week you update practically twice a day! lol…
July 3rd, 2008 01:18
thnx, emily-wa!!!!
i never really got into the harry potter books…
on the subject of meg cabot, have u read the new one, airhead? it’s really REALLLLLLLLLLY good…then there’s all american girl, etc.
i read a lot. teehee.i bet u already guessed that, tho….
i gtg and wake up. then find a brush, as my hair is sorta…well, messy would be an understatement.
July 3rd, 2008 01:18
More than twice a day actually. And yes I’ve read Airhead and All American Girl.
July 3rd, 2008 01:23
emily-wa, twoa my comments have the aforementioned phrase at the top. 103 104. it may not show up on ur guys screens, tho. //shrugs// w/e.
ooooooooooo another good series is the squad series by jennifer lynn barnes–soooooooo good.
now i’m reeeeeeeeeeeeeally gonna go.
July 3rd, 2008 01:23
ya those books r good.
talk to ya later!!!
July 3rd, 2008 01:24
Ya. I totally love Princess Diaries
July 3rd, 2008 01:28
Wow andrea-la.
I’m kinda disappointed in you… the Andrea on your blog isn’t the andrea I figured was such a great christian.
Haven’t you noticed- Christianity and Popularity doesn’t mix. God says, somewhere in the bible, i’ll look later, but it says that the rich will have a hard time going to heaven. Rich and popular mean the same thing in this saying, I think…
July 3rd, 2008 01:28
Eh, I started the first Princess Diaries book but I guess i got bored with it and stopped.
July 3rd, 2008 01:30
I’ve noticed. I’m kinda failing at life at both standards right now (God’s and the worlds). And my family does have quite a bit of money. We have a big house, a cottage, two cars, I do competitive swimming, my brother does year round soccer, we go on lots of trips, and I go to private school. And at private school everyone has lots of money so it doesn’t really matter. But really, most people are at least PASSING at life by SOMEONE’S standard.
July 3rd, 2008 01:31
I like princess diaries. I find them somewhat addicting.
July 3rd, 2008 01:33
Oh wow. I’ve already updated my blog twice today and it isn’t even 9:30am.
July 3rd, 2008 01:38
I’m listening to A Place In This World by Taylor Swift. I like it. It kinda describes how I’m feeling. But it’s kinda sad when a country song describes you. I think that it is one of the signs of being depressed.
July 3rd, 2008 01:39
Emily-wa, are you still here? Or am I talking to myself?
July 3rd, 2008 01:42
lol. I love Taylor Swift.
Yea, I went to go have breakfast.
July 3rd, 2008 01:44
Oh. I’m having some tea right now…yum. My blog hasn’t been THAT depressing lately, has it?
July 3rd, 2008 01:51
um, i’m reading the one titled Flat vs. Round, working my way towards the recent posts. It’s…interesting. At least you decided to be a RTG instead of an RTS. You have to remember- Jesus said that the road to God won’t be easy. That means that when you think taking the easy path, the RTS path, will still let you be close to God, you’re wrong. Think of Jesus’ deciples (spelling, sorry). Many of them DIED or went to JAIL for believing, but they are the ones who went to heaven.
July 3rd, 2008 01:54
At least if you go to jail you have lots of time to think. And the odd thing about me is that I don’t fear death. I don’t think I would mind jail that much. At least no one would bother me. Like, if I went to jail for, like, something worth going to jail for it would be all good.
July 3rd, 2008 01:54
and by the way, it’s happiness not happyness. lol.
And trust me, I argue with myself all the time. I’m a fairly normal person, too. I just think differently, especially on here, when i’m free to think and express my thoughts and opinions.
July 3rd, 2008 01:58
The problem is that at school you can’t really express opinions. I mean you COULD but no one does. At my school I only show my opinion when asked. Such as in Social Studies class. Everything I learned I learned in Social Studies. Not even kidding. And arguing with yourself is really annoying. Especially when the two of you arguing are oposite in every single way. And you don’t really have to express any opinions at my school anyway. I mean, it’s kinda pointless. It’s a Christian school and so I don’t have to worry about anything like that. It’s just that no one at school EVER voices their opinions. Do you want to know how many people made fun of me when during band class I told everyone how sharks are good loving creatures? Not doing that again.
July 3rd, 2008 01:59
Guess what? I thought about you at camp. They had some notebooks in the camp store, and one of them was designed like a hardback book. It had a blue spine, and had the word Notes on the front. I almost bought it, but was running out of money and needed some for food for the ride home. I had even thought of buying two, one for me and one for you, and seeing if you would would be willing to let me send it to either your home address (which i doubted) or some other nearby address so you could have it for the book you’re writing.
July 3rd, 2008 01:59
hmm…
tell me why you think that, and i might even agree with you.
July 3rd, 2008 02:00
the shark thing i mean.
July 3rd, 2008 02:01
I have a BILLION notebooks. Just I’m writing the book on looseleaf. I think it represents something deeper, but I’m still figuring that out…Cool notebooks. And your right, I wouldn’t tell you my city much less my home adress. No offense or anything, I’m just kinda careful about those thing. However, I will tell you my province. Manitoba.
July 3rd, 2008 02:03
cool. And i will tell you my state- kentucky.
No city like you said. At least not yet…
July 3rd, 2008 02:04
GAH I WANT TO PLAY VMK SO BAD!
sorry. it’s been closed for about a month or so now, and i just realized how much i miss it… WAH!
July 3rd, 2008 02:04
WHEN GOD MADE THE WORLD HE DID NOT SAY THAT IT WAS GOOD EXCEPT FOR THE SHARKS. WHEN PEOPLE GET EATEN BY SHARKS IT’S USUALLY THE PERSON’S FAULT. AND LET’S FACE IT, MORE PEOPLE DIE FROM FALLING COCONUTS THAN SHARKS. BUT DO THEY REPORT THOSE ON THE NEWS? NO, BECAUSE THE SHARKS ARE THE BIG BAD WOLVES THAT PEOPLE WANT TO DESTROY. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY SHARKS PEOPLE HAVE KILLED? PEOPLE HAVE KILLED WAY MORE SHARKS THAN SHARKS KILLED PEOPLE! IT’S ONLY FAIR THAT SHARKS GET TO KILL A COUPLE OF US! BUT SHARKS DON’T KILL THAT MANY PEOPLE REALLY! PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE! SHARKS DON’T KILL PEOPLE, PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE! AM I THE ONLY PERSON WHO REALISES THIS? This is the shark talk that I give to EVERYONE.
July 3rd, 2008 02:06
I actually wrote an essay on this topic for fun. My friends basically laughed at me for the single fact that I wrote an essay for FUN. LOL.
July 3rd, 2008 02:07
see? I agree with you. the sharks are simple animals, just happen to have sharp teeth and apparently bad enough eyesight to think we’re seals in the water.
July 3rd, 2008 02:08
I KNOW! Sharks are amazing animals and a few of them messed up and killed a couple of people and now they are considered bad. A couple sharks ruined it for their species. Sharks don’t even LIKE the taste of people.
July 3rd, 2008 02:08
How much of my blog did you read?
July 3rd, 2008 02:09
GOOD GRIEF YOUR PROVINCE IS BIGGER THAN CALIFORNIA!!
sorry. Just hard to believe it…
July 3rd, 2008 02:10
i’ve officially read every one of your entries. why?
July 3rd, 2008 02:10
LOL. I’ve never actually been to California…I think.
July 3rd, 2008 02:11
YOU’VE READ ALL MY BLOG ENTRYS? You must hate me now. I can’t read all the way to june 21st without hating myself. Did you read that far?
July 3rd, 2008 02:15
i took out the time a couple weeks ago to read all the way back.
And i don’t hate you. I don’t hate people at all. I may dislike people, but I still don’t dislike you. You’re alot more like me than you think, Andrea-la.
July 3rd, 2008 02:17
Decode that please. How am I more like you than I think? BTW, I kinda hate myself right now, and it’s totally okay by me if you hate me two. We can start a “I hate Andrea” website.
July 3rd, 2008 02:19
I feel alot like you do right now. I’ve…had some turbulence, we’ll say… in my faith, and thought society’s way was better. I’m still recovering.
And don’t hate yourself. It’s natural to want to give in to society. See? you aren’t alone, Andrea-la.
July 3rd, 2008 02:22
But society’s way IS NEVER better. I know that but still might give in. I haven’t even moved on to recovering. And you are recovering and I’m nowhere near that and might still give in. See the difference?
July 3rd, 2008 02:24
Well, that’s what Global Warming can do to us. Just think what it’s going to like in 30 years(If we make it that far).
July 3rd, 2008 02:27
Not really, andrea-la. Like you, I realize (and realized at the time) that society’s way is never better. I gave in to society, like you. Just remember, I’m here for you. i’m sure TZ and abigail-wa and everyone else on here are here for you too. that’s the only difference I see- I had nowhere to turn when I made my bad choices. You have us. And we’ll never think bad of you.
July 3rd, 2008 02:30
i’m back but i have to have lunch…wait, no breakfast…
and it’s 11:30. it’s sad.
and country songs aren’t all depressing!!!!!!!!!!
July 3rd, 2008 02:31
Hi I just woke up and painted my nails
anyone on
July 3rd, 2008 02:32
hmmm… i’m reading brio, and one of the products they suggest is called Batter Blaster. It’s pancake batter in a pressurized can, like whipped cream. isn’t it weird?
July 3rd, 2008 02:33
BUT WHY DON’T YOU JUST HATE ME ALREADY! I hate me and therefore see reason for everyone else to hate me. The sad part is that I’ve TRIED to give in to society. I ACTUALLY TRIED. It didn’t work…yet. Part of me is JUST CURIOUS. JUST HUMAN. And yeah, I know I have you people, but it’s just that I can easily just ignore you. EASILY. In theory. AT THIS POINT I MIGHT JUST FLIP A STUPID COIN TO MAKE MY STUPID DECISION.
July 3rd, 2008 02:34
OH! I’ve heard of that stuff!
July 3rd, 2008 02:34
that’s true, UMR-wa. Actually, MOST country songs arent depressing.
July 3rd, 2008 02:34
HUH? I still haven’t gotten a subscription to Brio. I’m not even sure if I’m considering it anymore. BUT AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO REALISES THAT 0.5 ROUNDS UP TO 1???
July 3rd, 2008 02:34
thats is weird wipcream pancakes??
whats next wipcream tuna….ew bad image
July 3rd, 2008 02:35
I like country music. If I want to listen to something depressing I’ll just listen to blues.
July 3rd, 2008 02:35
and 1+1=2
July 3rd, 2008 02:36
HA! true that! or maybe wipcream eggs….
July 3rd, 2008 02:37
BUT 0.5 ROUNDS UP TO 1!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT WHAT IF YOU HAVE TWO 0.5s AND YOU CAN’T ROUND UP BOTH OF THEM??? WHAT DO YOU DO? YOU CAN’T BREAK THE LAWS OF MATHNESS!
July 3rd, 2008 02:38
1+.5=1.5
right?
July 3rd, 2008 02:39
UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! But 0.5 rounds up to one. So if you have 0.5 round up to one, then another 0.5 rounds up to one then you have TWO! But then the eggs fall out of the baskit!
July 3rd, 2008 02:40
Andrea-la, think about it. What do you get out of society? Not eternal life with God. You get eternal life in, well, hell. And trust me, it will SUCK. Now, what do you get out of thinking for yourself and putting your trust in God? EVERYTHING. Doors open, and you get eternal life with Him in heaven.
This is alot like the Uglies trilogy, isn’t it? You can become pretty, a part of society, and it seems pretty good. But you can rebel, live without the lesions. And pretty much everyone agrees with Tally-wa in Uglies, that becoming pretty (giving in to society) is great, but isn’t worth it in the end.
July 3rd, 2008 02:40
you lost me at eggs?
July 3rd, 2008 02:41
EGGS! The bascit is not BALANCED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then the eggs fall out and you die!
July 3rd, 2008 02:41
ok i don’t have a clue what you mean with the 0.5 rounds up to 1 thing.
July 3rd, 2008 02:41
METIPHORICAL DOOR KEYS!!!!!!!!!!!
July 3rd, 2008 02:41
But what if.5 is already rounded then you don’t have to round it to 1. But since you can work with .5 again you don’t need to round. right?
July 3rd, 2008 02:42
Andrea-la i’m starting to get worried about you now…
what does math and eggs and baskets have anything to do with giving in to society?
July 3rd, 2008 02:42
but .5 may also just be .5 no more no less
July 3rd, 2008 02:42
okay. 0.5 rounds up to one. but you have two 0.5s but you can’t put them together. so they both get rounded up and you have two ones. and they fight. and then the baskit tips over and they eggs fall out and you die!
July 3rd, 2008 02:42
Ugh, my head is starting to hurt.
Andrea-la is going crazy. I’m serious!!
July 3rd, 2008 02:43
BUT ROUNDING UP IS RELEVENT!
July 3rd, 2008 02:43
WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I’M GOING CRAZY???
July 3rd, 2008 02:43
since when did numbers fight and own baskets of eggs??!?!?!!
July 3rd, 2008 02:43
you don’t always have to round.
July 3rd, 2008 02:44
Does anyone else here understand andrea-la right now, or do they agree with me that andrea-la is giong crazy?
July 3rd, 2008 02:44
why can you not just add the two .5s to get one super 1
July 3rd, 2008 02:44
ok, .5 and .5 can so go together to make 1
July 3rd, 2008 02:45
BECAUSE IT DOESN’T WORK THAT WAY BECAUSE THE TWO .5s HATE EACH OTHER!!!
July 3rd, 2008 02:45
I understand
July 3rd, 2008 02:46
FINALLY!
July 3rd, 2008 02:47
UGH! I think she’s just overreacting in a crazy manner!
How can numbers hate each other?!
July 3rd, 2008 02:47
So the two .5s are like the little shoulder angel and devil, correct?
July 3rd, 2008 02:47
THEY CAN IF THEY ARE METIPHORICAL!!!!!!!!!!
July 3rd, 2008 02:48
YES!! DING DING DING! WE HAVE A WINNER!!! YES!!! FINALLY KENZIE-LA GET’S IT!!!
July 3rd, 2008 02:48
i have proof that society’s math and numbers aren’t correct.
Take .99999 repeated and one. Now, 1 divided by 3 is .33333 repeated. But 0.33333 x 0.33333 (both repeated) is .99999 repeated, not 1. Keep up with that kind of thinking, and there’s alot of proof.
July 3rd, 2008 02:49
they are
those things would be you concience
right now its just having issues with your brain
but what you should do is follow your heart
July 3rd, 2008 02:49
well i still don’t understand.
why on earth are we talking about metaphorical numbers?
July 3rd, 2008 02:50
That’s just a saying right? I can’t exactlay see my heart to follow it. Hmmmmmm. I can’t see my metiphorical heart either so how am I supposed to follow it?
July 3rd, 2008 02:51
METIPHORICAL NUMBERS ARE THE ONLY WAY I CAN MAKE SENSE OF THINGS THAT MAKE NO SENSE!!!!!!!!!! METIPHORICAL NUMBERS ARE VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT!
July 3rd, 2008 02:51
Andrea-la you can think your way out of this. Like Tally thought her way out of the lesions, out of society. Think seriously about what you’re talking about. About which choice, society or GOD, would be better in the long run.
July 3rd, 2008 02:52
DO YOU HONESTLY THINK I HAVE BEEN TIERD FROM LACK OF SLEEP DUE TO THINKING ABOUT FAIRYTALES? I HAVE BEEN THINKING SERIOUSLY!
July 3rd, 2008 02:53
well i still don’t understand what the metaphorical numbers stand for, and why they have eggs in baskets.
July 3rd, 2008 02:53
BECAUSE EGGS ARE COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
July 3rd, 2008 02:54
how bout some song lyrics(my drama teacher sang this song in our musical with our choir teacher)follow your heart from urine town
Bobby
Did you mean what you said? About everyone having a heart?
Hope
Well, sure I did. Do you think you’d be feeling as bad as you do if you
didn’t have a heart?
Bobby
I don’t know. I spupose not.
Hope
Of course you wouldn’t. Because then you’d be dead.
When darkness surrounds you
And you lose your way
You have your own compass
That turns night to day
And it’s even with you
Before you depart
Be still, hear it beating
It’s leading you
Follow your heart
Bobby
Follow my heart? But to where?
Hope
To wherever your heart tells you to go.
Bobby
Even…there?
Hope
Even to the clouds, if that’s what your heart commands. What’s it saying
now?
Bobby
I don’t know. I don’t know how to listen to my heart.
Hope
You have to listen carefully. Here, let me try.
Bobby
Do you -
Hope
Ssshhh! Ah, there it is. It’s saying:
We all want a world
Filled with peace and joy
With plenty of water
For each girl and boy
That bright, shining world
Is just waiting to start
No meanness or sorrow
Just cleanness tomorrow
If only you follow your heart
You see there, Bobby. Even your heart knows you should follow your heart.
July 3rd, 2008 02:54
Andrea-la, caps don’t do anything but attract attention to yourself which honestly i don’t think we need right now.
July 3rd, 2008 02:54
Also, eggs are very breakable. And because the two 0.5s are half of what they should be they are both very breakable too. SEE? The metiphorical eggs are the numbers!
July 3rd, 2008 02:55
Kenzie, my brain isn’t turned on yet. I can’t understand that at the moment.
July 3rd, 2008 02:56
Why don’t I need attention right now? Also, caps are my friend.
July 3rd, 2008 02:56
why are we rounded .5s and why cant we add them together?
July 3rd, 2008 02:56
I think I get it!
July 3rd, 2008 02:57
just be quiet for a moment, no music, block out the numbers and listen to your heart
July 3rd, 2008 02:57
ok andrea-la. My head is hurting, and I think for once this is some type of logic i won’t understand. Hopefully you’ll figure this out. All I can do is hope and pray that you will make the right decision. I’m off to have lunch, do my daily bible study, and maybe play some of the original Sims.
Good luck!
July 3rd, 2008 02:58
METIPHORICAL NUMBERS THAT ARE FIGHTING WON’T REALLY WANT TO BE ADDED TOGETHER, NOW WOUD THEY. OR PREHAPS ONE OF THEM IS A NEGATIVE AND ONE IS A POSITIVE…HMMMM.
July 3rd, 2008 03:00
My conscience is that the hospital(stiches) and my better judgement went on vacation(mexico). And they didn’t even leave me a note.
July 3rd, 2008 03:03
Okay…thinking…no music…heart says…ah…i get it now…i suppose i could ignore it…i mean, it just called me an idiot…how nice of it…
July 3rd, 2008 03:06
Must turn music back on. Can’t listen to the agrument.
July 3rd, 2008 03:07
I really dont know if I even have a concience or better judgement
July 3rd, 2008 03:08
I used to have one. You know, until I ripped out my conscience and now it needs stiches and my better judgment is in mexico with joe the scuba diving chicken.
July 3rd, 2008 03:09
usually the hearts pretty blunt
doesnt take nothing from nobody
July 3rd, 2008 03:10
Ummm…yeah! My brain is being the problem at the moment.
July 3rd, 2008 03:12
DONT LISTEN TO IT
the brain is souly for school(not social either achedemics only) nothing more nothing less
July 3rd, 2008 03:13
But my brain is fairly smart. I’m kinda missing school.
July 3rd, 2008 03:15
I do to
summer gives to much time to think
July 3rd, 2008 03:18
Yeah. I miss math class. All the numbers…I need numbers. And I need english. All those new words. I miss learning what people tell me to learn. I learn too much over summer.
July 3rd, 2008 03:19
yu just need to relax
and forget your brain
July 3rd, 2008 03:21
you should learn something about me. I don’t relax. I NEVER relax. My friends have actually asked me seriously if I even know what that word means. Mostly because during exams I was waking up at 5:30am to study after staying up til midnight studying. I don’t even eat lunch during the school year because I’m in so many extra clubs and stuff. I get double booked by these clubs on the one day when I would usually have nothing to do at lunch. I don’t relax.
July 3rd, 2008 03:24
are you doing anything today
like a club, sport, anything?
July 3rd, 2008 03:25
No…I am bord out of my mind and don’t know what on earth to do so I am seriously going insane.
July 3rd, 2008 03:27
so just sit down and think, one thing at a time
and doodle, nothing serious, just squigles circles faces, anything it will clear yur mnd
July 3rd, 2008 03:28
And my mind DOESN’T clear. EVER.
July 3rd, 2008 03:30
so block out everyting, but one thing at a time
July 3rd, 2008 03:31
My mind is kinda out of control right now…you know, when you start fighting with yourself, your mind isn’t exactly going to clear.
July 3rd, 2008 03:33
think of one thing anything, like a book you didnt like, name one now
July 3rd, 2008 03:37
ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm…what?
July 3rd, 2008 03:37

July 3rd, 2008 04:13
Tea’s good, so what we talkin’ bout?
July 3rd, 2008 04:15
Nothing much. I think Kenzie-la has disappeared.

Personality quiz. You can take them on the internet.
July 3rd, 2008 04:34
Mine is INTJ. It’s interesting. Of course, metiphorical numbers are more interesting but still interesting enough.
July 3rd, 2008 04:35

July 3rd, 2008 04:35
awsomeith!
July 3rd, 2008 04:37

I’ll research yours nowith then…
July 3rd, 2008 04:55
My favorite INTJ website is http://intjcentral.com/ It’s the best!
July 3rd, 2008 04:56
Hey, that’s interesting. Both of our personality types are the rarest.
July 3rd, 2008 04:57
Yeah…YaY us for being rare!(That’s just a nice word for weird, lol. JkJk)
July 3rd, 2008 04:59
LOL. True.
July 3rd, 2008 05:00
I’ve been updating my blog semi-obsessivly. I wonder why…
July 3rd, 2008 05:01
Hey, I’m not denying it bout myself at least. *shrugs* I think it’s cool that we got the rare ones!
July 3rd, 2008 05:02
Yeah. It makes us interesting.
July 3rd, 2008 05:03
HeHe, interesting…another word for weird. LoL
July 3rd, 2008 05:05
yes. But let’s face it. We are weird. But I don’t particularrly care so whatever. Let’s get over it and get on with life. Seriously, some people think I’m so weird. Those are the people who I regularaly make really mean jokes about behind their back.
July 3rd, 2008 05:05
I really like updating my blog though. I think it might be like an addiction.
July 3rd, 2008 05:08
I have an addiction…but my addiction is different…it involves jollyranchers:aka candy of the heavens. LoL, jkjk, I have an addiction to reading. I admit that.
July 3rd, 2008 05:09
Yeah. I read 4 books in three days. So now I don’t have anything to read so I’m reading my dad’s books. LOL. By they are really interesting.
July 3rd, 2008 05:11
too…many…comments…urgh….
i’m gonna go sit in the corner and be discouraged for a while….sigh.
July 3rd, 2008 05:13
Yes. There are many comments. Ah.
July 3rd, 2008 05:13
OwOwOw. I’m an idiot so I was leaning back in the rolling chair, even though my Dad told me I was gonna fall I’m like No I’m not. As soon as he turns around….CRASH! And he’s like Told Ya So. I’ve got nothing else to read either…I need to take a trip to the book store.
July 3rd, 2008 05:14
I spent all my money on books. You know, the money that I didn’t spend on clothes that is…
July 3rd, 2008 05:17
And so now I don’t have any money left.
July 3rd, 2008 05:20
HeHe, I’m a naughty girl I ask my Daddykins for money so I can save mine. But it’s not like I get allowance or anything….it’s all B-day money…
July 3rd, 2008 05:21
And so now I’m just waiting for school to start. I honestly can’t wait. I really really really can’t wait for school to start. And summer vacation only started a week ago…uhhhhhhhhhh.
July 3rd, 2008 05:22
My dad gave me $50 because I did well on my report card. But I spent that money on books.
July 3rd, 2008 05:23
I wish summer would be over already!
July 3rd, 2008 05:24
I don’t get money for my report cards. If I did bad, they’d bribe me with money like they did with my brother to do better, but I don’t do bad. Worst thing I’ve gotten on a report card is a B. I kinda wanna start school and I kinda don’t….I want to because it’s gonna be like a new experience at Highschool and I wanna see how its like, but I don’t want to have to wake up early! LoL.
July 3rd, 2008 05:27
I wake up early anyway. I just can’t wait for next years math class. Also, english class…yes I am a nerd. I can’t stand not doing any math so now I’m using numbers as metiphores. UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. My parents just give me money for good report cards so that it will be fair between me and my brother. The lowest grade I got was 81% in french and the highest was a 98% in band.
July 3rd, 2008 05:29
1×1=1 2×2=4 3×3=9 4×4=16 5×5=25 6×6=36 7×7=49 8×8=64 9×9=81 10×10=100 11×11=121 12×12=144 13×13=169……….
July 3rd, 2008 05:30
Ya…I got like 130% in English but that’s cuz I did some major extra credit…I love English class. I don’t like math so much but it’s not hard…Science is easy, History is super easy and I like it, uh…Gym, there is no possible way not to Ace that class unless you like try to, Spanish would be good except my teacher was mean.
July 3rd, 2008 05:31
I g2g, it’s my brother’s birthday so I have to help get everything ready for his party…bye.
July 3rd, 2008 05:35
okay, bye.
July 3rd, 2008 05:39

anyways.. vaca was great!
my little cousins annoy the crap out of me though.
so what have i been missing?
anyone want to catch me up? …please?
URM-wa.. i agree expanders do stink!
..i had one when i was in like 5th grade…
and you had to put a little key in it and crank it.
painful much.
do you have to crank yours?
July 3rd, 2008 06:19
I’m sunburned too! Yay! We can be sunburned together!
July 3rd, 2008 06:40
ANYONE ON???
July 3rd, 2008 06:49
yep. yep. lol.
July 3rd, 2008 06:50

July 3rd, 2008 06:51
yep
July 3rd, 2008 06:52
I’m researching gluten free restraunts in minniapolis. Know of any?
July 3rd, 2008 07:00
Did you leave?
July 3rd, 2008 07:06
lol sorrys. i get distracted easily.
nope. i don’t know any.
so how was your vaca?
July 3rd, 2008 07:08
I got sunburned. I read books. I’m going back to my cottage in a couple days. Then I’m going to Minneapolis. I can’t wait for school to start.
July 3rd, 2008 07:14
are you still here?
July 3rd, 2008 07:19
yep i’m here. looking at digital SLR’s they are so amazing. i want one so bad…
i’m in pain from my sunburn too. monday i went to the pool and slept on the cement while my cousins played.. the pool was kinda too cold. and i forgot my book.. so the only thing left to do was sleep. then yesterday i layed up on the deck of my dock reading for awhile. and then all the wasps started to bug me. so then we went on the boat to a sandbar and i layed on the deck of the boat for awhile reading. then i swam.. the mississippi rivers current is so strong though. and the whole time i was without sun screen on… not very smart of me.
why are you going to Minneapolis?
i can wait. lol. i really don’t want to go back. schools so boring. and homework… bleh. feels like summer just started.. but it’s already been a little more than a month.
July 3rd, 2008 07:30
did u leave?
July 3rd, 2008 07:31
what’s up people?
July 3rd, 2008 07:37
Huh? Just obsessivly updating blog.
July 3rd, 2008 07:38
sir…
what is happening to the climate is bad, and it is affecting weeds and crops.
But in Uglies, bottom of page 181 to top of 182, you say
“…They turned into the ultimate weed. What we call monoculture. They crowd
out every other species, choke trees and grass, and nothing eats them except one
species of hummingbird, which feeds on their nectar.”
You see, there’s a difference between The White Weed and your average one.
The thing is, NOTHING EATS A WEED! You were saying that 30-50 years from now,
The White Weed may become something more than a reference in your book. If
thats true, then the weed would spread faster than you wrote because it has no natural
predator.
So even if the climate does change at the same rate it is now (2.5ppm per year),
than we might need rangers in as little as 2.5 decades.
This is no laughing matter.
Also… that one chapter in Uglies reminds me of another book I read this year in
seventh grade. I forget What it was called, but it was about the TITANIC. See, someone
wrote a book a while before the Titanic crashed. It was about how someone was building
the biggest ship in the world, and was supposedly ‘unsinkable’. But it sank. There weren’t
enough lifeboats for its over 2000 passengers, and many famous people died. It was like
a premonition for what happened to the Titanic, and is sometimes known as ‘The Premonition’.
What I’m trying to say is that what you wrote is like that book.
Farewell for now,
Dessa-la
July 3rd, 2008 07:40

July 3rd, 2008 07:43

July 3rd, 2008 07:44
how can you miss school?!?!?
July 3rd, 2008 07:44
What’s wrong with you? I can’t wait for school to start up again. My friends often tell me jokingly to get a life. I tell them I’m breathing. They say just barely. Probably because I breath about half as much as a normal person.
July 3rd, 2008 07:45
I love school. Especially math and english class.
July 3rd, 2008 07:46
i don’t make that many friends in school, and i don’t like homework and tests and getting up at six in the morning and people that drive me crazy and all that. That’s why i don’t like school.
July 3rd, 2008 07:48
I totally love school. Especially band. And math. And english. And social. I just don’t like homework. I don’t dislike it though.
July 3rd, 2008 07:49
i never liked math. my favorite subject is science.I love science! i’m also really good at writing. last year, my english teacher sent me to the young athours confrence. i got to miss a whole day of school doing fun stuff! it was fun.

July 3rd, 2008 11:51
I just added my worst enimy as a friend on facebook. That’s all. I’ll live. Maybe we wont be worst enimies anymore…hopefully. Also, I was kinda dreading reading what you posted on my blog. I posted back to you.
July 3rd, 2008 11:51

July 3rd, 2008 11:53
What do you mean?
July 3rd, 2008 11:54

July 3rd, 2008 11:56

July 3rd, 2008 11:57
Dreading your comment? No reason. Just I feel like I might barf from adding my worst enemy onto my face so, anything mean anyone said could you know…And why on earth would I add my worst enemy? No clue.

July 3rd, 2008 12:02
umm.. i don’t really know. there is kinda a lot of personal information on there. ya know? like where you live and where you go to school and stuff. i usually only add people that i’ve met face to face. i think your cool and stuff… i just don’t know you personally. sorrys. i’m a very overcautious person.
July 3rd, 2008 12:03
oh i was just saying interesting to your previous comment about you no knowing why you added your worst enemy.
July 3rd, 2008 12:04

Wooden rollercoasters are really hard to draw. -_-
July 3rd, 2008 12:08

July 3rd, 2008 12:22

i love socks!
softball socks especially!
all my friends on my summer softball team are like “why do you wear your long sock to practice?”
and i’m like “my long socks are cool! don’t mock the socks!”
and then they have to slide and get scraps and i’m like yep bet you wish you had my socks!
July 3rd, 2008 12:24
I also got lime green ones with pink polka dots hehehehe
and a knee high pair of checkered black green blue red and magenta
they all make me smile
July 3rd, 2008 12:26

i was on such a sugar high last weekend!
it was fawesome!
my cousins and i went and bought 5 bags of pixie sticks!
we went on a sugar high.. and then went on the pixie plunge.

………………
=l
July 3rd, 2008 12:44
don’t be sad!
July 3rd, 2008 12:45
why are you sad?
July 3rd, 2008 12:45
dunno
give it a minute
July 3rd, 2008 12:47
minutes are stupid. I mean, why measure seconds when you can measure minutes, why measure minutes when you can measure hours, why measure hours when you can measure days and why measure days when you CAN’T MEASURE ENTERNITY. Time in general is stupid because it is so general.
July 3rd, 2008 12:47
Im good just crashed a little I guess
July 3rd, 2008 12:49
YAYNESS! I haven’t really had any sugur/caffine today…
July 3rd, 2008 12:50

crashes aren’t fun.
the pixie plunge is a big crash.
we all took a nap after it. lol.
July 3rd, 2008 12:51
caffine goooood
crashing bad
July 3rd, 2008 12:51
yep. yep.
July 3rd, 2008 12:52
Yeah…Like during the jazz festival…yeah, my teacher kinda told me that I couldn’t have anymore caffine…I had to tell him that I hadn’t even had any…yeah…
July 3rd, 2008 12:53

July 3rd, 2008 12:55
do you guys ever eat pixie stick after pixie stick?
..it’s fun. and oddly addicting.
July 3rd, 2008 12:56
dunno really
but I just had ice cream
July 3rd, 2008 12:56
I usually try to avoid sugar. You know, for the obvious reason that I am crazy enough without it.
July 3rd, 2008 12:56
yumm..
July 3rd, 2008 12:57
giant pixie sticks are even more fun!
July 3rd, 2008 12:58
i have such good times with my cousins.
we’re all so crazy.
July 3rd, 2008 12:58
=P
sugars good
but you know what stupid
all microwave kettle corn is made with splenda SPLENDA not real sugar inatation, its better from the farmers market *huff*
July 3rd, 2008 12:59
Sugar makes me more insane than I am usually. Trust me, that is a BAD thing.
July 3rd, 2008 12:59
Dx I’m trying to read posts in between drawings, but this is going too fast.
July 3rd, 2008 13:00
**drawing, not drawings
July 3rd, 2008 13:01

Im gonna write a complaint letter
July 3rd, 2008 13:01
Who knew facebook is so addicting?
July 3rd, 2008 13:02

July 3rd, 2008 13:03

July 3rd, 2008 13:04
Yeah…there are so many PEOPLE. People from my SCHOOL! People from my old schools too!
July 3rd, 2008 13:05

July 3rd, 2008 13:09
I have neither… but I might get a facebook because so many of my friends at camp here have one.
July 3rd, 2008 13:10

You know what’s weird? Being facebook friends with people who totally hate you.
July 3rd, 2008 13:14
haha yeah
July 3rd, 2008 13:15

July 3rd, 2008 13:16
shaving when you have a sunburn hurts.
July 3rd, 2008 13:17

July 3rd, 2008 13:22
WHY DON’T YOU CARE???
July 3rd, 2008 13:23
xD we are so off topic of the post. But idc.
July 3rd, 2008 13:24
huh???
July 3rd, 2008 13:26
why should I care what they think if they dont respect me and my friends with the respect I give them
July 3rd, 2008 13:26
Yes! I finally finished drawing the struts of the rollercoaster for my hoverboarding picture. xD
Refresh my memory- did most of Tally’s and Shay’s trips to the Rusty Ruins in Uglies happen at night?
July 3rd, 2008 13:28
I don’t know. I just don’t know why, but suddenly I’ve started actually giving a crap about what people think of me.
July 3rd, 2008 13:28
I think
I havent been able to reread it cuz a family friends still has it
RAWR GGRRR
July 3rd, 2008 13:30
I’d look myself, but I’m at camp and didn’t think to bring the books w/ me. Dx
July 3rd, 2008 13:31
I care about people who respects me opinions
but these girls were kinda on the road down hill if you get what I mean
July 3rd, 2008 13:31
Yeah…my friend has my book, I think…otherwise I lost it.
July 3rd, 2008 13:32
So? I don’t know why but for some strange unknown reason I’ve actually started caring about what people think/say about me. I don’t know if this is a sign of RTSism, but who knows?
July 3rd, 2008 13:33
YAY! Once again someone is a confirmed facebook friend with me.
July 3rd, 2008 13:33
Whatever. I’ll just draw it like it’s at night anyway. =/
July 3rd, 2008 13:33
my books are gone too.
my cousin borrowed them in April..
and hasn’t given them back yet!
she’s still on Uglies only like 60 pages in!
and i miss my books!!
July 3rd, 2008 13:34
Gtg, bye! Might be on later.
July 3rd, 2008 13:35
I miss uglies too
July 3rd, 2008 13:35
bye Lori-wa!!
July 3rd, 2008 13:35
And again someone ELSE has confirmed facebook friends with me. AND she’s kinda popular!!! Oh crap, I have gone back to RTSism. UHHHHHHHH.
July 3rd, 2008 13:36
byebye c u l8ter lol IM talking
July 3rd, 2008 13:36
i never should have given her all 4 books though!
how stupid do i get!
like seriously!
July 3rd, 2008 13:37
yeah. IMology…
July 3rd, 2008 13:38
ya know what i’ve realized in the past month….
a lot of people want to get me drunk.
and they are all adults.
like my best friends mom…
she wants to get me n my friend drunk when we turn 17 and then have a sleep over so they can see how we react with alcohol. my mom was completely against it though.
and then one of my cousins who is like 35 or something.
but i’m not like that. i don’t get drunk or drink alcohol for that matter.
July 3rd, 2008 13:38
yet your not going all mean
are you sure they maybe, just go with me on this, actually do like you for who you are and your just not asking to hang out with them and stuff
July 3rd, 2008 13:39
Yeah…that was kinda random
July 3rd, 2008 13:40
lol. sorry. i was just thinking about it.
July 3rd, 2008 13:41
and did I go all mean last time?
July 3rd, 2008 13:43
kinda
you just wernt you
July 3rd, 2008 13:44
really? was I really kinda mean? uhhhhhhhhh. come on. and technicly speaking I was still me.
July 3rd, 2008 13:47
yeah, it was kinda scary how much you changed, and for me not in a good way
*off topic*free hugs campain I Love this, its so what the world needs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpzkHhgcZG4 plus a good song*off off topic*
July 3rd, 2008 13:49

July 3rd, 2008 13:50
kinda you were
July 3rd, 2008 13:52
fool video!!! i loved it!!!
July 3rd, 2008 13:53
I want to do it so bad
but it almost makes me cry
its just so perfect
July 3rd, 2008 13:53
Like the video. very interesting. and how was I scarry???
July 3rd, 2008 13:55
you changed to something you wernt
like jeckel and hide
July 3rd, 2008 13:55
Also, the world is not perfect, so we can’t expect the video to become reality.
July 3rd, 2008 13:56
well, I wouldn’t say that I changed to something i’m not. that’s a little harsh. maybe true though.
July 3rd, 2008 13:59
idk. but i like you better this way too.
July 3rd, 2008 14:00
the truth is something no one really wants to hear
but just a couple people can change the world
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IUSZyjiYuY
another great video and song
these people were and am amazing
July 3rd, 2008 14:00
now, we shouldn’t play favorites (j/k). I don’t know which me I like better.
July 3rd, 2008 14:01
I like you this way too
July 3rd, 2008 14:02
cool video.
July 3rd, 2008 14:03
these people are insparations
they changed the world for so many people
July 3rd, 2008 14:04
Why do you like me better this way?
July 3rd, 2008 14:05
your more interesting to talk to
you have opinions
your spontainious
you have a very uniquie(in a good way) way of thinking
July 3rd, 2008 14:08
But everyone has a unique way of thinking.
July 3rd, 2008 14:08
that was a cool video. and i love that song too. i have the cd and was just listening to it an hour or 2 ago.
July 3rd, 2008 14:08
And I did have opinions as a RTS.
July 3rd, 2008 14:11
but they were mostly just yours because they were others not that you really beleived in them
join the movement
http://www.freehugscampaign.org/index.php?categoryid=10
July 3rd, 2008 14:14
they were still opinions. And at the time I might have believed them.
July 3rd, 2008 14:15
but deep down?
July 3rd, 2008 14:16
maybe. still don’t know. it’s a blur at the moment.
July 3rd, 2008 14:19
ah well
im trying on all my socks
im wierd like that
July 3rd, 2008 14:20
being weird like that is fun.
July 3rd, 2008 14:20
really? I remember after reading Harry Potter semi-obsessivly I totally loved Dobby and never wore matching socks for a long time.
July 3rd, 2008 14:24
I really like toesocks. But I haven’t been wearing them for a while.
July 3rd, 2008 14:25
Im wearing matching socks hehe

July 3rd, 2008 14:26
they make my feet feel funny, toe socks
never really liked them
July 3rd, 2008 14:27
I’m not wearing socks right now.
July 3rd, 2008 14:27
i have so many pairs of toe socks!
July 3rd, 2008 14:27
I like toe socks. Just I haven’t worn them for a while. You know, not since I kinda got over my Harry Potter obsession.

July 4th, 2008 04:32

July 4th, 2008 04:34

July 4th, 2008 04:36

i don’t know what my weirdest dream was…
there was one with a giant grasshoper trying to eat me…
that was a long time ago though.
oh not that long ago i had a dream that me n my friends were at my elementry school and we were visiting our old teachers and i went to go say hi to my fave teacher and she turned into my grandma.. and then these giant monsters came and ripped the ceiling off the school and me n my friends stole cars to escape… they were weird cars like egg shaped and stuff.
July 4th, 2008 04:50
O.odd
July 4th, 2008 04:51
people can die laughing?? I didn’t know that. or heard of it. was there like some band war going on a couple hundred comments back? if so FLUTES ROCK!!!!!!!!! Ok, got that out of my system. I wonder who our new band teacher will be? oh well, guess we’ll find out.
July 4th, 2008 04:52
Why does this say July 4th when it’s the 3rd? weird…..
July 4th, 2008 04:56

July 4th, 2008 11:17

July 4th, 2008 11:31
I updated my blog again. Honestly, It’s like you people disappear whenever I come on!
July 4th, 2008 11:59
oh come on. I know SOMEONE must be on.
July 4th, 2008 12:07
whatever. g2g
July 4th, 2008 12:37
wow. that weed thing is kinda weird, but, anyway, is anyone on now?
July 4th, 2008 12:52
ugh. okay, conservative rant.
global warming is a ploy. Scott-sensi, that is the ONLY thing i dislike about the Uglies series.
exploring new ways to use energy is fine, but lets face it, the reality is that we won’t be able to use it for x amount of years, so untill then we need to use oil.
liberals WANT oil to go up so peple stop using it becasue they hate big industry. oil is a HUGE industry. of course their slaming it!
Check it out, when it gets warmer, scientists say ‘proof for global warming’ when it gets colder ‘proof for global warming’
HELLO!!! that isn’t science! that’s wanting something so badly (because you WANT to destroy our economy) that you’ll make ANYTING quote ‘prove it’.
Obama voted against drilling ofshore even tho it would help ‘working class americans’ like he pretends to care about.’
sry for the rant, but i’m not sry for the truth.
July 4th, 2008 13:12
*eyeroll*
Facts are facts. Temperature has risen and fallen before, true, but not at the rate at which they are rising now. Even if you don’t think that’s a bad thing, it’s true that the Earth is warming.
What makes you think it’s a hoax? There has been no peer-reviewed scientific paper that refutes global warming. Since when are you smarter than the entire scientific community?
And please don’t get me started on the entire ‘liberals want to hurt the economy’ BS. I suppose the economy is good, if you want rampant inflation, skyrocketing oil prices, {ohwait, /I’m/ supposed to be the persons who wants that} and record defecits from record surpluses. I don’t know about you, but that’s our economy with a CONSERVATIVE president, and it seems to have been pretty darn hurt.
And as for the Obama argument, why should I care? I supported Hillary.
July 4th, 2008 13:30
okay, lol to the Obama arguement,
but take a look back to the 1970′s when the world’s temp was LOWERING at a greater than normal rate. that of course meant we were going into the next ice age. R i g h t.
our economy would be loads better if the democratic senet would stop giving our tax money to causes that should be individual American’s rights to give or not give to.
do ur research! liberals/democrats WANT taxes to be raised! yet they are supposed to be all for the average american. President Bush is doing a fine job considering the senet he has.
i;’m sorry for implying that ALL democrats/liberals want to ruin our economy. i’m just a bit ticked
July 4th, 2008 13:44
Bush had six years before the democrats had a majority, and he wasn’t doing a fine job then IMO.
But whatever. Let’s talk about the series and forgat all this political discussion.
Do you like Uglie’s fanfic/fanart?
July 4th, 2008 15:20
Ok guys I had a though based off this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrESt2iR8Vc
go to my blog for more
July 4th, 2008 16:05
hey. hey. hey.
Kenzie-la i’ve watched or had the free hugs video playing in the background probably like 50 times today.. as soon as it ends i hit replay! lol it’s so great! thanks for showing it to me! and me n my friend joined the movement.
i love it!
July 4th, 2008 16:06
it doesn’t feel like midnight.
i’ve been on the computer wayy too much today.
facebook is wayyy to addicting!
July 4th, 2008 16:18
i finished Eclipse for the 2nd time last night.
i don’t know what book to read now..
cuz whenever i read a book after i read any of the Twilight series books the other books (even though they may be a great books) seem not so good. so what do i read?
do i reread a book that i loved.. but then what if it turned out in comparison to the Twilight series it wasn’t so good?
or do i read a book that i haven’t read before?
…i tried that last time… i read One For Sorrow.. and i gotta say i really didn’t like it too much.. i didn’t even finish it.. half way through i was like ahhh i miss Twilight.. and this book is boring me to tears… so i went back to reread the Twilight series… and now i’m back where i was before… help. me.
July 4th, 2008 23:46
If we can do that to weeds, why couldn’t crops adapt in the same way?
What if someone did a controlled experiment with crops? Like, treated them as weeds for a few decades…would they adapt as weeds have? Even though weeds have had thousands of years to adapt, wouldn’t that make just a little progress?
Because it seems to me that weeds, over the last several…millennia, have learned to quickly adapt to a changing environment. So, they’ve adapted to be able to adapt quickly…does that make sense? If we could do the same to crops, we would have a food surplus.
Yes, I realize that would take an insane amount of time. And might not work, with all the genetic changes crops have had since we started farming way back in the Mesopotamian days.
But wouldn’t it be better to start now? It’s worth a try. It’s not like things could get worse than they already are.
July 5th, 2008 00:24
lori-wa: i haven’t had a chance to read any uglies fanfic. if u know of any let me know! hmm….i haven’t seen much uglies art either…..
i don’t really have a lot to say on this weed thing. i just wanna know exactly how fast our climent must change for this to happen.
i think the problem w/ adapting crops is that other things eat them, if we made some sort of super crop or something it may have a less than desireable effect on the food chain.
July 5th, 2008 00:27
Hellos. I’m on. Is anyone else?
July 5th, 2008 00:28
Oh! Abigial-wa, you are probably still on!
July 5th, 2008 00:32
yes i am! hello!
July 5th, 2008 00:35
Happy fourth! seriously, i’ve been thinking a lot about the army and stuff. hard to believe they’d fight for ppl they didn’t even know. :]
personally i wanna be in the national guard.
but i’m sick for the day so…….
July 5th, 2008 00:47
It’s the fourth of july??? Sorry, I’m kinda oblivious to such things.
July 5th, 2008 00:50
lol, that’s okay. the only reason i remembered is that i have a picnic (ugh and it’s raining) and the skating rink is closed.
July 5th, 2008 00:51
I only know that today is ummmmm…friday. I think…
July 5th, 2008 00:54
g2g
July 5th, 2008 00:56

July 5th, 2008 01:34
I like that word.
July 5th, 2008 01:35
Anyone on right now? Or should I just go update my blog again?
July 5th, 2008 01:47
I”M ON! but idk if you are or if you left. Hard to tell when you posted with these weird times at the top of the blog…
July 5th, 2008 01:48
YAY!!!
July 5th, 2008 01:49
I updated my blog (again). lol
July 5th, 2008 02:04
g2g again. pet store.
July 5th, 2008 02:05
i saw. i was reading it.
Pet store? Why Why Why?
oh and your blog isn’t letting me comment on the recent…est… blog entry! Rawr!
July 5th, 2008 02:58
Pet store. Guinea pig food. I’m back now though. Are you still here?
July 5th, 2008 02:59
Wait a second…my blog isn’t letting you comment??? UHHHHHH.
July 5th, 2008 02:59
It’s the end of the blog-related world!!!!!!!! Sorry, just HAD TO say that.
July 5th, 2008 03:00
i’m here. I had some lunch and did my personal Bible study, i had to do yesterdays and todays because i didn’t find the chance to yesterday…
July 5th, 2008 03:01
Yeah…I don’t have a daily bible study. I just kinda open up the bible to a random spot and read it…
July 5th, 2008 03:02
So, my blog didn’t let you comment??? Again, END OF THE BLOG RELATED WORLD!!!!!!!!
July 5th, 2008 03:02
Try again, try again!!!
July 5th, 2008 03:03
lol. Reminds me of what my math teacher used to say-
If something impossible, whether it was related to math or not, he always said, “(insert impossible thing here) happens, yada yada yada, the denomenator of all fractions is zero, blah blah blah…” lol. Because you know, you cant have the denominator of a fraction be zero. It’s just not possible.
July 5th, 2008 03:04
lol. just lol. I like math. Especially fractions…
July 5th, 2008 03:09
Shall I assume that you are still on my computer, just ranting on the comment section of my blog?
July 5th, 2008 03:10
we called fractions the ‘f’ word in math class, because my class can never work with fractions. so whenever someone said fractions, everyone gasped and someone usually said “you said the F word!!!” lol….
(ok cheesy christian girl thing there. But still, you should.) Don’t worry about who you are, God will show you if he needs you to know. You’re Andrea K——. You’re probably the best friend i’ve got on this blog, slightly above TZ and a couple others. hehe…
your blog doesn’t want me to post my opinion apparently. my testing comment got through, but my opinion never came through. So here’s what i wanted to say-
you’re going to TEMPORARILY show your roots, and be who you know you shouldn’t be? It’s still unfathomable to me why you cant just wait for God’s plan to be shown to you. He has a plan, you don’t need to go looking for it yet, you’re only, what, 14? Just live, laugh, philosophize and such if you want, spread God’s word and love
July 5th, 2008 03:11
HA. the andrea K part was supposed to have the same number of dashes as are letters in your last name… guess it didn’t show up. I was just kinda showing off i guess lol.
I think i might go play Sims2 fairly soon.
July 5th, 2008 03:14
U there still? or did you leave?
July 5th, 2008 03:14
Look, the scientist in me just would like to take over for a second. This experiment is not only about finding myself but it is also about experimenting with the rewireing of the brain. I find the human mind utterly facinating and I have tried to be a variety of people. It’s nice that we are best web buds. BWBs. I like that. I know that God has a plan for me and I kinda might have a little bit of a glimps about what the idea of this plan is. And I will be living and laughing. Only two weeks, will be abit more sciency. I’m a scientist and therefore prone to experiment.
July 5th, 2008 03:15
And yeah, I’m still here. Obviously. Or no, I’m typing using my super powers, I’m really swimming across the ocean to Europe. Where do you think I am??
July 5th, 2008 03:17
i thought you left… my bad…
k u do that. Hopefully you’ll be able to snap back into yourself.
I’m off to play sims2.
byeses, BWB….
July 5th, 2008 03:19
Sims??? Love that game….of course I’ll be able to snap back into myself. I think.
July 5th, 2008 03:51
Anyone on right now??? Or am I all alone?
July 5th, 2008 03:59
I feel so abandoned!!!
July 5th, 2008 04:10
I’m off to my cottage. See ya after the weekend!
July 5th, 2008 04:11
Don’t forget to read my blog!
July 5th, 2008 04:11
Okay, I’m leaving for real now. DON’T FORGET TO READ MY BLOG!!!

Lucky. I’m at camp, like I have been for the past 3 July 4ths

last night was the worst 4th of July i ever celebrated. It was so foggy i don’t think we could have possibly seen the fireworks about a mile away, and we watched the ones on TV for about 15 minutes. Why do they bother putting them on TV if they aren’t half as fun watching? You have to agree, things on TV like concerts or fireworks aren’t half as fun as actually being there. I guess that’s what’s so great about fireworks. It’s not actually the fireworks themselves, but being there.

wow. typing all those “llamas” is making my head spin. and not in a good way either. who else is meant to be, but is not doing right now, their homework?

hey I’ve heard that song before. XD I love it! It’s hilarious!
answering to the original topic here…thats creepy that we might be actually growing the weed that killed everything else in the rustie’s time in the series!!
but then, if weeds help GW, they actually might be GOOD…

I knew how your characters felt when the doctors wanted to change them. I learned the hard way that the science of beauty does exist, but your stories helped me be myself. I can now look in the mirror with happiness.
