    Oh, I’m so confused. First my computer said it was 3 seconds long, then 2 minutes and 52 seconds, and then 17 seconds. So barking confused! Dumb Clanker contraptions.

    I just watched a interview with Taylor Swift and she seems nice enough (even though her songs SUCK) although it acurrs to me her agent probably told her to act like that (I am thinking of hunger games).

    I wasn`t expecting any entries until after the new year, so I haven`t been checking for new blog posts very often lately. Glad I checked today though.

    If you pay attention to the lyrics of Haven’t Met You Yet (Micheal Buble) I think that it totally matches the personality I have created for Middy Eugene Newkirk.

    @42- Thank you. I read uglies last night (I ended up staying up till 4) and I thought that it was okay. I don’t really like many dystiopian books.

    December 31st, 2011 01:11

    I have found that somewhere in most dystopian novels someone always ends up alone in some wilderness. That’s the part i don’t like. I like the plots and the whole dystiopian world I just don’t find the details too fascinating.

    December 31st, 2011 05:50

    I am very confused right now. I have read both LBG and uglies and now, as is the nature of Mr. Westerfeld’s (I now refuse to call him “Scott-la” now that I know what it means) I have the characters from both swimming in my subconscious! I am not really thinking about them but I can always feel they’re presence, kind of like a hiding cat, ya know? And the worst part is, is that I want to know what happens to them (I have only read uglies) but I am to lazy to read them. Could somebody please tell me what happens?

  60. 60
    Rachel.... umm.... err.... Ronnie
    December 31st, 2011 05:53

    @ Levi- ha! I know exactly what you mean! Alek and Deryn are always in my head, usually cracking jokes on what happens in my life. It’s really weird, but funny. Like sometimes I ask myself “WWDSD?” As in What Would Deryn Sharp Do?

    @71- I have to say i have never really had that problem. When I started being a book dorky (2nd grade) I was homeschooled and then in 4th grade I was in a program for the academicly talented and therefor everyone there was a book dorky. So in a way, LUCKY ME!

    Rachel.... umm.... err.... Ronnie
    December 31st, 2011 08:37

    @ 75- GET YOUR BUM IVER TO FAF AND JOKN OUR FAN MEETING! Wow. That would be boring. The cool thing about being book dorky is that there are very few people are like that, so you are considered eccentric, or of being unique. In school, I like to be the one that always reccomends the books to kids, and who is the only person who laughs while I read. I like to stand out, to be different. In a good way, though.

    I’m going to “Glue some gears” on everything from now on. Hey, Rachel and Levi, we should have an established meeting place for our Fan Club meetings and chats, so as to avoid confusion as to where we meet, as with above. No one should be left out, If you know what I mean.
    I vote we stay on the FAFs, and maybe move it to each new FAF when they get posted so we don’t have to scroll down forever to get to it?

    That’s funny. I don’t just adding gears makes it Steampunk. Proper planning has to go in it, doesn’t it? I would think so. It may work for some things: like a white blouse or a copper/gold waist belt, but…

    @ 101- M@X! So good to have you back! If you like this, check out Istanbul not Constantinople by the Four Lads. It’s not a rap, like this song, but it is AWESOME! This steampunk song reminded me of it.

    Rachel.... umm.... err.... Ronnie
    January 1st, 2012 06:39

    @ 103- the meetings are usually towards night time, when we’re all available to chat over books and stuff, and the assigned meeting place will be at each FAF. If a new FAF is posted, we will move our meetings there.

    Rachel.... umm.... err.... Ronnie

    How about Max, as in Maximum ride. I can’t help it if my name is pike that and since i’m on an ipod i don’t like having to fill in a long user name. Just listened to the song, and it is pretty good. I like that Alek can pilot a walker and, more impirtantly, fence. I’ve been away from wifi for a while, which is why i haven’t posted

    GO HARRY POTTER, sort of, kind of. More inportantly, GO LEVIATHAN AND BEHEMOTH AND GOLIATH AND ALEK AND DERYN AND DALEK AND NEWKIRK AND DOCTOR BARLOW AND VOLGER AND KLOPP AND BAUER AND HOFFMAN AND MR. RIGBY AND BOVRIL AND EVERYONE ELSE, except all super nosy reporters that are giant idiots who have there life saved by somone but refuse to keep secret a scoop, yes I’m referring to you Eddie Malone!!!!!!!!

    Rachel.... umm.... err.... Ronnie

    Mr. Weasley?

    @ 112- I hate it when I have no wifi! It irritates he barking daylight’s out of me!

    @116 Me too.

    @117 Yah, she was bad, but she didn’t have a life debt to Alek that she refused to pay, and that is just down right ungratefull, stinking (calming breath) you get the point. Please do not get me back on that subject.

    Just one last say in the matter, almost every reporter is soul less.

  121. 121
    M@X
    January 1st, 2012 07:37

    I cann’t say all reporters are soul less because my mom writes articles for magazines, which is almost the same, except without adding a lot of lies and exaggerations and with no spying involved. Only good, clean interviews.

  122. 122
    Rachel.... umm.... err.... Ronnie
    January 1st, 2012 07:38

    @ 121- your mom has the coolest job ever.

    Fine, don’t watch it.

    Actually, I think being a biomedical engineer would be more fun, but yes, my mom’s job is pretty cool. Unfortunatley, she hasn’t had a lot of time for it ever since my sister was born and she had to take care of at least on of us. She’s gotten a lot more time to do it since my sister turned ten a few years ago, but in ten years, a lot has changed. One example is that facebook is now the main way free lancers, like her, get a job. Also, microsoft has changed and she still hasn’t gotten used to it. So she has a part time job helping with a preschool in our town.

    January 1st, 2012 08:01

    I think HP is good, but I can think of other books, most importantly LBG, that deserve the fame far more. I couldn’t say that in front of my friend who is also called Racheal, but with an “a” after the “e”, because she and her older sister would send out a bus window while I was asleep on a Scholastic bowl trip.

    I am not getting into it with you about the kindle because I have found that almost every reader is extremely stubborn, but I prefer a good old E ink Nook.

  128. 128
    Rachel.... umm.... err.... Ronnie
    January 1st, 2012 08:05

    Okay, so what would they send out a bus window? And RachEl is spelled the right way.

    Yes, yes I am stubborn.

    But only when it comes to books, and key lime pie.

    January 1st, 2012 08:06

    1) They would send me out the window.
    2) Don’t say that to my friend Racheal.
    3) So am I.
    Bye for real.

    @133 I was actually talking about being stuborn, but (imagine me in a top hat, petticoat and with a monocle) I do enjoy key line pie.

    @135 savor every moment of that book.

    @ 139: I don’t necessarily believe the world is going to end this year; I just like poking fun at the people who do! I DO however believe SOMETHING will happen later this year, but that something will be totally within our (humankind’s) control. Most likely nothing will happen but everybody will go crazy with fear and MAKE something happen. This scenario has occurred before. Everybody’s going to stock up on water and food and ammo and tampons and then nothing will NATURALLY happen but people will go out of their minds with fear. And when nothing happens, people will discredit every prediction anybody subsequently makes, the predictions that probably WILL come true. It’s the boy who cried wolf scenario; when all people hear is lies, they don’t believe the truth.

    “Another a high school girl with a bourgeois dream, just like the pictures in the magazine that she found on the floor of the laundromat, but a woman with kids can forget all that. And if she comes up pregnant what’ll she do? Forget the career, forget about school. Can she live on faith? Live on hope? High on Jesus and hooked on dope. When it’s way too late to ‘just say no’, you can’t make it here anymore” – James McMurtry
