So I’ve been fooling around with making my own promotional shirts for a while, and sometimes people want to buy them from me. But it’s not like I’m going to manufacture things and then (shudder) mail them. I don’t do packages and stamps very well.
But with Extras coming out in just six weeks, I suppose it’s time to let the t-shirts flow. So I invite you all to the launch of . . .
Yes, it’s the online store for shirts and hoodies that reveal your Ugly (and Midnightery) side. Behold a few examples:
All these and more are available right now by clicking right here.
A few notes:
1) As with all online clothes shopping, check the size info carefully. I chose Spreadshirts.com because they’re very clear about the measurements of their stuff. Just click the product details for info.
2) I don’t get any money from this, but one dollar from each shirt goes to Katrina relief. If anything goes wrong with an order, please bug Spreadshirts and not your humble and clueless author.
3) If you think these shirts are lame, feel free to design your own at Spreadshirt or Cafe Press. Click here for a big tridecashirt file. And here for a big file with all the Midnighters symbols. Rock out and share with the rest of us.
4) Yes, they ship to Australia and many other countries, but it costs.
5) Discounts on bulk orders (25 of the same thing).
Hope you find these fine wearables amusing, and let me know if you have any Special requests. (nyuck, nyuck.)
Again, here’s the store.
August 23rd, 2007 03:52
omg do i win???
August 23rd, 2007 03:52
YEAHHHH!!!! i am so happy!! lol
August 23rd, 2007 03:57
Those are really cool shirts and stuff but they are all either for women or juniors.
You should make them for Guys…I would def buy one.
August 23rd, 2007 04:09
dude, those are FAWESOME! i wish there were more midnighters ones though….or like peeps stuff. though uglies is cool too…
Does anyone have like an image or a shape or clip art or something of a thirteen-pointed star? i’ve been looking for one because i want to make a midnighters shirt.very bubbly store.
August 23rd, 2007 04:11
Actually nine of the shirts are for guys. The retro tees and the regular t-shirts. The pulldown menu labeled “All Articles” also lists all the shirts by men’s (or women’s, or juniors’) if you want.
August 23rd, 2007 04:22
Oh, cool. I guess I didn’t see it. I really liked the ‘I’m an extra’ sweatshirt. Do you think you could make some for guys?
And also…Did I win the extras sampler?
August 23rd, 2007 04:29
Um, I haven’t been doing the contest for a while. But some time soon I’m going to announce a way to give out lots of them. Sorry.
August 23rd, 2007 04:29
figures, now that i won an i’m an extra t-shirt from insideadog, they’re selling them. actually, i haven’t even gotten my t-shirt yet…i wonder when it’ll show up
well, my grand plans are failing. i’m trying to make a Bixby High School t-shirt with a 13 point star, but it turns out they’re hard to make on the computer cuz it’s an odd number
oh well. i’ll satisfy myself with buying one of the other fawesome shirts
August 23rd, 2007 04:30
Oh, man that sucks…so there’s no way to get them now?
August 23rd, 2007 04:32
You really shouldn’t have shown me these shirts…I’m so t-shirt obsessive when I’m supporting a cause!
August 23rd, 2007 04:33
i want a shirt that says “team zoe”
August 23rd, 2007 04:34
Yay! This reminds me of when we were making up t-shirt slogans in one of the comments threads. Heh..heh… ‘Your boyfriend makes me bubbly’ I’ll go check it out, thanks Scott.
August 23rd, 2007 04:39
*speechlessness*
August 23rd, 2007 04:40
ha! i figured out how to make a 13 pointed star in photoshop! victory!! midnightersness!
August 23rd, 2007 05:23
Love the shirts! Especially the cat vomit one! Except um…what’s up with the one with brail on the chest? I just found that a little odd.
August 23rd, 2007 05:25
Ooo, those are awesome. I’ll definitely check out that link.
August 23rd, 2007 05:54
That’s so cool! Yay!
August 23rd, 2007 06:09
Oooh, I want a Team David shirt. I’m dig Team shirts. Though I make most of mine, such as my Team Jim shirt. (My friend has a Team Dwight shirt.)
August 23rd, 2007 06:19
oh bang. those are amazzing. i dont really like the The somke Lives! one because there isnt really a “smoke” anymore, after the mind-rain, is there? but theyre still soo fool. love the cat-vomit one.
August 23rd, 2007 06:38
I love the shirts! No chance of me getting one, though, seeing how I just spent my T-shirt requesting money on Twilight shirts. Oh, well. I can make my own!
Those of you who want thirteen pointed stars, flyboy designed one at the westerboard (http://www.westerboard.com/viewtopic.php?t=287). I’ll bet that he would let you use his design, at least if he comes back…
August 23rd, 2007 06:45
*is still basking in their glory* They are extremely jokez. I really like the “You are so 11:59″ ones.
August 23rd, 2007 06:49
Ahh, I love them all! I need to get the “You are so 11:59″ one.
August 23rd, 2007 06:54
ooh, do they have a Flamebringer lore symbol? i haven’t checked out the store yet. guess i’d better. i hope they have a flamebringer one!!!
August 23rd, 2007 06:58
ooh, i luv the You’re So 11:59 one! >.
August 23rd, 2007 06:59
awww, man, no Flamebringer! well, no Flamebringer by it’s self. o well… =)
August 23rd, 2007 07:01
The shirts are totally made of awesome! Goes off shopping. ^^
August 23rd, 2007 07:32
Oooh, fexecellent!
August 23rd, 2007 07:42
Courtney: There are now two flame-bringer shirts at the end. Your wishes are my commandses.
August 23rd, 2007 07:52
Oh my gosh, they’re ALL so fawesome! I’m fotally buying the sweatshirt!
-And now Flame-bringer shirts?! Scott, you’re TOO good to us!
^_^
August 23rd, 2007 07:55
“I don’t want to hurt you, but I will if I have to” HAHAHA! I want that one! And the hoverboard monitor, and the Polymath, and the Mindvaster, and the you are so 11:59, and…I want them ALL!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually, after I finished reading Uglies for the first time I went downstairs and told my dad I wanted a hoverboard, he told I was insane=( Then, whem my brother and I were watching back to the future I totally scoffed and said “What a lame hoverboard!”
And everyone at school thinks I’m insaned fir this same reason. They balme Scott.
August 23rd, 2007 07:56
i so0o0o0o0o want one!
August 23rd, 2007 07:57
FEXCELLENT NEWS! I saw The Last Days in PAPERBACK at the bookstore today! Why wasn’t I informed of this earlier?
August 23rd, 2007 08:16
cool. but i figured out how to make a 13 pointed star, and now i’m totally gonna make a bixby high t-shirt. and i agree, the You R So 11:59 shirt is fawesome
August 23rd, 2007 08:27
Cool shirts. I’m not sure about wearing a shirt with a braille message written across my chest, though
August 23rd, 2007 08:36
HAHAHA! Braille written across the chest! I get it now! Not a good idea to wear that around MY friends. But what does it say?
August 23rd, 2007 08:38
oh! It says ‘The Smoke Lives!’.
August 23rd, 2007 09:24
Oh my God. The Team Zane one is the best thing I have ever seen.
I’m buying one. Or 5. But I might just have to wait for my birthday.
August 23rd, 2007 09:27
Yeah, Team Zane is the Best!
August 23rd, 2007 09:31
WHOA!!! SWEETNESS!!!!!! that is so cool!!!! i think im gonna hav’ta wait for my b day tho.
August 23rd, 2007 09:39
i love that they support katrina relief i was in katrina I HAVE TO GET ONE
August 23rd, 2007 09:57
oh em gee that is so awesome! now i don’t have to diy a shirt b/c i don’t do well with fabric paint…
and idk if scott’s still checking the comments, but why aren’t there girl’s “team aya,” “team tally,” or “team shay” shirts? b.c i think it’d be cool to get an aya one but there’s just guys shirts in that style.
August 23rd, 2007 10:03
oh wait, i mean in juniors…i’m kinda confused
August 23rd, 2007 10:11
Taylor: It is done! Check page 2 for girl’s Team Aya, Team Tally, and Team Shay.
August 23rd, 2007 10:16
huzzah–and thanks!
cool i think i’m gonna end up getting like 2 shirts. that one and an “i’m an extra” one b/c i like how it says the release date on the sleeve. vyes, this is where my paycheck money is going lol.
August 23rd, 2007 10:17
3,542,400 seconds
59,040 minutes
984 hours
untill extras
August 23rd, 2007 10:18

August 23rd, 2007 10:18
“i dont want to hurt you but i will if i have to” needs to come in juniors
August 23rd, 2007 10:20
i want an im an extra shirt and the smoke lives. i would get i dont want to hurt you but i will if i have to if it came in juniors
August 23rd, 2007 10:26
yeah i’ll probably get the team aya and the i’m an extra shirts…
amy-la i wonder if scott’ll put that one in juniors now! that’d be awesome.
August 23rd, 2007 10:31
i just bought two shirts!!!
August 23rd, 2007 10:32
that is so happy-making
August 23rd, 2007 10:34
i wish polymath was in womans *poke poke*
August 23rd, 2007 10:34
i’m playing w/ the tshirt designer–i have to wait for my mom to get home from work before i order anything. i want to think of some so yesterday reference, i have my book next to me.
August 23rd, 2007 10:36
i may be younger than all of you but i am bigger not realy fat just a little
August 23rd, 2007 10:37
those are so cool!!! now i’m all obsessed with ideas for westerfeld-themed t-shirts….
like these…
–So pretty i had to eat him
–like, a The Last Days band shirt
–bixby high school sweatshirts
–Fawesome/fexcellent t-shirts
so many possiblilties…..i’m probably gonna end up buying like a dozen. and then i’ll confuse all my friends with references to things they don’t understand….
August 23rd, 2007 10:42
ooh, maybe i should just do “can i take a picture of your shoe?” or like “i’m an innovator/trandsetter/jammer/some-other-group” or maybe “your boyfriend gets the Nod”
i love your ideas serafina zane!
August 23rd, 2007 10:45
thanks. i like the can i take a picture of your shoe? idea. i was really bored once (waiting in an airport or something) and i actually tried tying my shoelaces diagonally like Jen and took a picture of them on my phone
August 23rd, 2007 11:03
why is scott not awsering our pokes (requests)
August 23rd, 2007 11:07
good luck with spreadshirt. i refuse to give them any money. i had a terrible experience with them and will never give them any business. oh well.
i like the shirts…though i wish there was a stylin’ hoodie that was not juniors [seeing as i am 27!]
i’m really looking forward to the new book!
August 23rd, 2007 11:33
That is sooooo awesome!!!!!!! My best friend and i have been talking about making shirts and stickers for Uglies every since we read the books!
August 23rd, 2007 11:47
yay i just bought 2 shirts! “team aya” and “I’m an extra!”
i should wear one of them the first day of school and confuse people.
and the whole sticker thing is pretty cool, mandy-wa! scott you should try that! but somehow i doubt that “Spreadshirts” would make stickers lol…
August 23rd, 2007 11:50
yeah, that would sort of force them to get a new name
i’ve got like this button-making thing, so i make buttons for obscure book references and stuff all the time. my backpack is totally covered in them…it makes it like two pounds heavier……….
August 23rd, 2007 13:11
Is there a Team Zane in the girl’s style?
Hehe, there’s a women’s braille shirt. So, how would a blind person read that…? It might cause problems. =]
August 23rd, 2007 13:16
SAWEET!!! (yes, I TRIED to spell it that way!!) I wonder when our tshirts are going to get here…I wanna wear it for the first week of school!! THat would be so cool!!
Kadie-Wa
P.S. Sorry I haven’t really been on lately!!
August 23rd, 2007 13:24
are you still going to be at dragoncon in atlanta? you’re not on the guest list and it’s next weekend..
August 23rd, 2007 13:28
rainy yeah there is it’s on page…let me check…1 when you’re looking at “all articles” it’s the last one it says juniors’ but it’s a girls shirt. i got an Aya one like that.
August 23rd, 2007 15:00
i think it would be cool if there were shirts with a hello my name is sticker and it says like tally, zane, david, shay, aya, and all of those things but it should look like the names were written and not printed by a computer…just a thought
August 23rd, 2007 16:42
that is so dizzy-making! i am going ballistic! if only i could tell my hole-in-the-wall to spit some out so i don’t have to ask my mom for her credit card…and then pay her back later… *sigh* oh well! i’m gonna go check out the make your own thing now! THANK YOU SCOTT-LA!!!
August 23rd, 2007 17:11
THANK YOU! These are AMAZING! And, it also helps that a dollar goes to charity! I’ve been absolutly DYING to get a cool midnighters shirt.. But my ‘Rents wouldn’t let me make one myself (Metallurge.. I wish I could find a shirt with THAT sign on E’Bay. Well.. I did make my own symbol so, yeah.) And I ADORE the Uglies Quote one.. Now I have to convince the ‘rents to get one or twelve for me.
August 23rd, 2007 23:41
hey, am i the only one for who the store’s acting wierd? like, somethimes it says that there’s 32 items, but then it says there’s 29. why are these three items disappearing?????
and again with the pokeage in case author-ppl are still listening–a last days band/concert tee would be fawesome……..
August 24th, 2007 00:30
serafina zane that happened to me a few times i just hit refresh and it went back to 32. sometimes it doesn’t display the girls’ team aya/shay/tally shirts and that’s why it said 29. i think it’s b/c those are the last ones scott made and the store sometimes doesn’t recognize them. weird, i know.
and i want a cool button-making thing! seriously that’d be so great to just cut out pictures/words/etc. and turn them into buttons!
ooh and yeah a concert tee would be cool but like idk how he’d do it since like there’s no band logo or anything…it’d be cool if there were t-shirts referencing so yesterday…maybe i should just make my own but it’s more expensive
August 24th, 2007 01:05
i made a Last Days button!
August 24th, 2007 01:10
Scott your shirts are so awesome. i am totally getting the I’m an extra one!!! but do you think you could make the tridecashirt in juniors? Also the i dont want to hurt you but i will is i have to in juniors and a different color (i hate pink)
You should totally make a shirt that has to do with bubbly or icy. THAT would be awesome!! ANd you should make some that reference to peeps or the last days.
August 24th, 2007 01:13
how did you get a button making thing??
August 24th, 2007 01:16
i’m googling “button maker” right now…so far there’s been one fairly relevant result, and all the rest are for like buttons for a website. like the kind you’d click on and it’d take you somewhere. i want one maybe that’s what i’ll ask for when my birthday gets a bit closer.
August 24th, 2007 01:18
i ordered it online from like, badge-a-minit. i spent like, all my birthday money on it but it’s fawesome.
and i second (or third or first or whatever) the ideas for peeps/the last days stuff. they would be so fawesome!!! and more midnighters stuff!!! and maybe some so yesterday stuff too!
August 24th, 2007 01:18
yeah my birthday is only like a few weeks away
August 24th, 2007 01:19
so yesterday would be so cool like i love the idea of can i take a picture of your shoe?? i would totally buy that one!!
August 24th, 2007 01:20
i think it’s like, third if you google button making machine. some of them are waaay expensive though. the badge-a-minit one was cheapest, and it still used up all the money i had.
August 24th, 2007 01:24
sweeet thanks
August 24th, 2007 01:28
lol can take a picture of your shoe was my idea! yay other peoples like it. and yeah i changed my search to add machine at the end and i was just on the badge-a-minit site!
August 24th, 2007 01:28
can *I* take a picture…dumb typos…
August 24th, 2007 01:29
ha! now i made a “something about you is so….11:59″ button
August 24th, 2007 01:31
haha ive read all of scotts books except the midnighters series though i want to read it as soon as possible
August 24th, 2007 01:33
i really want one now i have a hellogoodbye button on my backpack but that’s it…yeah this is going on my wishlist now…
August 24th, 2007 01:33
midnighters are like, almost my favorite westerfeld series. i mean, uglies is awesome, and peeps/the last days are fexcellent, but midnighters……classic
August 24th, 2007 01:35
i love the midnighters series! idk which of scott’s books is my favorite though, i’d have to reread them all before i could tell you!
August 24th, 2007 01:38
it’s probably between so yesterday (despite the fact that the title is the same as a hilary duff song grrr) and the uglies trilogy.
August 24th, 2007 01:38
i’d probably say midnighters (the first one) and then peeps and then midnighters 2, and then the last days, then midnighters 3 (the ending!! how could you??! plz plz book four!!) then uglies/pretties/specials (and again!! ending!!! killing off awesome ppl??!!!)
but whichever one i’m currently reading is my favorite. and i can’t wait 4 extras!!!
August 24th, 2007 01:39
wow, thought i forgot something. ttly forgot so yesterday. yeah, that’d probably be next to uglies and the last days
August 24th, 2007 01:43
who do you like better zane or david??
August 24th, 2007 01:44
zane. ttly, all the way. i mean, i have nothing against david, he’s pretty cool, but zane…
August 24th, 2007 01:52
zane’s gotta be my favorite, i’m not really sure why i just like him better. but my mom would freak out if i got a shirt that said “team zane”—especially since it’s on her credit card! and i can just picture myself coming into school w/ that shirt on, and we get some new kid whose name is zane. can you say awkward? i got an aya one b/c i highly doubt there’ll be a new girl w/ that name!
August 24th, 2007 01:52
lol no offense but you can never really know if Tally liked Zane more because of his looks or if Zane liked Tally because of her looks. Even Tally was doubting herself when David asked her that remember? David loved her with all her imperfection and Zane loved her with only the emotional and mental ones. HE never saw her when she was ugly. What do you think he would have said then. He would have treated her like any other ugly probably. So for that reason im David all the way.
August 24th, 2007 01:53
But you still have to take into account that David had never seen a pretty before but still. David is my kinda guy.
August 24th, 2007 01:54
yeah, that would be really wierd.
and zane’s cool because like, david was a rebel because that’s how he was raised, but zane made the choice. and like, he wasn’t perfect, he sold his friends out too, but he was still good.
oh, and also, black hair, sleep deprivation, and caffine. sorry, but i’ll take that over homemade leather and campfires any day. but that’s just me.
August 24th, 2007 01:56
but, like they said, they were in a whole city full of pretties, and they still chose each other, so i don’t think it’s just looks.
but david is cool, he’s just not as cool as zane. zane is even a cooler name. it has a z in it.
August 24th, 2007 01:57
i have to agree w/ serafina’s last couple of sentences…and i just like the name. yeah sorry i don’t have any inspirational reasons lol.
August 24th, 2007 01:57
zane is a cooler name ive got to admit.
August 24th, 2007 01:58
oops shoulda refreshed before posting…i meant about the hair, caffeine, and sleep deprivation
August 24th, 2007 01:58
i would have gotten a team david shirt but my cousin is named david and he goes to my school. so that would be really akward…
August 24th, 2007 02:00
true true i would have died living in the smoke now if david was grown up in the city and became a pretty now THAT would be hott.
August 24th, 2007 02:00
yeah, i know like three guys named david. don’t know anyone named zane tho…
August 24th, 2007 02:01
i want to name my kid zane that name is just too cool.
August 24th, 2007 02:02
totally. and dude, i just realized, i have a cousin named david too. random.
August 24th, 2007 02:02
but w/ the whole name thing: i get why david’s name isn’t as cool, like because his parents had older beliefs, so he had a more classic name; while zane lived in the bubbleheaded world, so he had a more futuristic, unusual name. it’s just an awesome name.
August 24th, 2007 02:03
i kinda wish that they would have caught david and made him a cutter too…how cool would that be then tally wouldnt have to be slowed down by an ugly all the time when they run away. but thats just my opinion.
August 24th, 2007 02:05
i only know one person named david…just the younger brother of one of the girls in my class…wait i forgot i work with a kid named david…that’s kinda pathetic that i did’t even remember the name of someone that i work with but i remember that it’s someone’s younger brothers name!
August 24th, 2007 02:07
i wonder if david will ever get any surge done or just do anything that would change the way he looks…i guess we’ll have to wait and see! but i doubt it.
August 24th, 2007 02:10
i sorta doubt it, david’s thing is like, he’s the only character who hasn’t had multiple brain surguries.
that’s why extras is gonna be awesome, cuz tally was getting really crazy (in a good way) and now aya’s still like, human i guess, not off in pretty-ville or cutter-land
August 24th, 2007 02:13
i can’t wait for the release! this is like the biggest deal ever made for one of scott’s books. you know, the store, the contests, everything!
August 24th, 2007 02:14
yeah, this is really the first one i’ve been waiting for the release date—-all the others i read after they came out
August 24th, 2007 02:15
Extras is gonna be sweet, but confusing in the beginning though, and i wonder if Tally and david will ever get back together or if she will ‘never love again’ or some crap lie that. THAT would make me very mad. i think it would be cool if david did get a surg just like an eyescreen or a tattoo. He would at least fit in better with Tally and they wouldnt look like total opposites.
August 24th, 2007 02:16
yea ive never had to wait for any of his books they all came out right before i started reading them.
August 24th, 2007 02:17
besides specials, this is the only book that i’ve actually known the release date of.
have you bought any of the shirts?
August 24th, 2007 02:19
yeah, just some superficial stuff so david doesn’t stand out as the normal dude. and even tho awesome zane is gone, i really think she should get back with david, i mean, he’s cool, and she should be happy.
october 2nd, can’t wait!!
August 24th, 2007 02:20
im going to my little sis is gonna buy me the I’m an extra long sleeve hoodie and what other shirt should i get?
August 24th, 2007 02:21
i haven’t got any yet, but i’m gonna get a “ur so 1159″ one and maybe a special circumstances sweatshirt
August 24th, 2007 02:22
i know totally they should get back together. And he hsould get AT LEAST one tattoo. my little sister is getting me the extras long sleeve hoodie. what other shirt should i get?? except midnighters cuz i havent read them.
August 24th, 2007 02:22
in a way i kinda hope that david doesn’t get anything done to him. even if he is “the normal guy,” that’s kinda been his trademark thoughout the trilogy: not getting any surgery in spite of everything.
August 24th, 2007 02:24
kinda but it would be so much more interesting. but something happens and his surgery goes wrong and he almost dies but then he survives and that is how they meet aya because she is in the hospital getting ready to get the pretty surgery…oh yeah now THAT would be cool
August 24th, 2007 02:24
i dunno, my fav uglies shirts are “i don’t want to hurt u but i will if i have 2″, and the sideways special circumstances ones, or the i’m an extra one
August 24th, 2007 02:24
how about at “Team tally/shay/aya” shirt? i would say get “the smoke lives” but just before i ordered it, my mom (who hasn’t read the books) pointed out that some people might think it’s some weird drug/cigarette reference. so i scratched that idea
August 24th, 2007 02:25
yeah but i wish it wasnt in pink. read my above comment
August 24th, 2007 02:26
should i get a tally or shay one??
August 24th, 2007 02:28
well which of the two is your favorite?
and whoa we all posted in the same minute…fawesome.
and i would have gotten a special circumstances one but it’s just in women’s. and when compared to my regular shirts, it’s a lot wider.
August 24th, 2007 02:29
it seems like aya isn’t gonna get pretty surge tho…
i found the description of extras on amazon, check it out—
As if being fifteen doesn’t suck enough, Aya Fuse’s rank of 451,369 is
so low, she’s a total nobody. An extra. But Aya doesn’t care; she just
wants to lie low with her drone, Moggle. And maybe kick a good story for
herself.
Then Aya meets a clique of girls who pull crazy tricks, yet are deeply
secretive of it. Aya wants desperately to kick their story, to show
everyone how intensely cool the Sly Girls are. But doing so would propel
her out of extra-land and into the world of fame, celebrity…and extreme
danger. A world she’s not prepared for.
sounds very fawesome.

August 24th, 2007 02:29
TALLY!
August 24th, 2007 02:32
eek serafina i’ve already seen the description but i’m not letting myself read it.
and personally, i sat tally, just cause shay’s had her meanie moments way more often than tally.
hi hillary!
August 24th, 2007 02:33
Sound like its more focused on the scoop rather than surges.
August 24th, 2007 02:33
it’s not spoilery or anything. and i second tally, shay gets angry a lot
August 24th, 2007 02:34
*SAY tally…typos, typos, typos
August 24th, 2007 02:34
ok ill get a team tally one. i got to go get my haircut. BYE!
August 24th, 2007 02:35
yeah someone posted the link awhile ago, but even though it doesn’t have spoilers i don’t want to read it. i’m odd, yes.
August 24th, 2007 02:35
Hi! Taylor. I just got a new book! I’m so happy! But, since I got it yesterday I’m almost done, so I’m gonna be very sad.
August 24th, 2007 02:36
lol “i got it yesterday i’m almost done”
what book?
August 24th, 2007 02:36
yeah im gonna get the im an extras one and a team tallly one
August 24th, 2007 02:37
Girl At Sea, Maureen Johnson is good! And funny!
August 24th, 2007 02:39
cool rachael-la! i got team aya just cause she’s the new girl in the series and she needs SOMEONE on her side lol. and b/c she’s an extra and feels all unpopular.
August 24th, 2007 02:39
oh, i read that one. it was pretty cool. she’s a pretty good author–devilish was really funny
August 24th, 2007 02:41
oh i’ve read the key to the golden firebird and the bermudez triangle by mj and i’m very angry w/ the banning in bartlesville. TKTTGF is my fave though, idk why.
August 24th, 2007 02:43
i have devilish on request at my library right now, but it hasn’t come in yet.
August 24th, 2007 02:43
i know, the whole banning thing is scary and stupid. i mean, i read the book and it wasn’t bad in any way whatsoever.
key to the golden firebird was good, but it practically made me cry. 13 little blue envelopes rocked too
August 24th, 2007 02:45
Yeah I’ve only read 13 LBE, then I really had to read another so I got the new one. I really wanted to read Devilish, but GAS jsut looked so yummy! I’m on Team Zane.
August 24th, 2007 02:48
13LBE made me cry! TBT debaucle is ridiculous! I’ve never understood the point of banning a book. It just makes no sense whatsoever. Yeah, I have TKTTGF, DEV., TBT, and GAS all on acquisition at my library. And Magic’s Child.
August 24th, 2007 02:49
i read all of her books, and they’re all great.
Team Zane forever.
August 24th, 2007 02:53
has anyone every read an abundance of katherines by john green? b/c that book has made it to like my top 20 favorite books and i heard about him from scott’s blog.
and yes, go team zane! cause we know he’s cooler.
August 24th, 2007 02:54
i’ve practically run out of stuff to read, i read all the westerfeld books, and the whole magic or madness trilogy, and all the maureen johnson books, and like everything. so now i guess i’m just stuck waiting for extras.
August 24th, 2007 02:56
i never read abundance of katherines, but i’ve seen it before
August 24th, 2007 03:11
I’ve heard of it, I think my library might actually have it.
Yeah, I know that feeling of having nothing to read. It’s like you’re empty or something awfully fat is dancing inside your head when you KNOW it is too big to even be in there. Or maybe that’s just me.
August 24th, 2007 03:22
well actually, i’m just panicking cuz that means i have to do all my honors summer reading homework now.
my procrastination is catching up with me.
August 24th, 2007 03:28
Whaa…I thought I was special because I won a tshirt. *sigh* Oh well. They are still so SWEET!!! I LUV THEM SO MUCH!! I can’t wait 4 mine to get here!! YAY!
Kadie-Wa 40 days until EXTRAS!!
or 1 month 4 days…whoops, i mean 9 days OR
3,456,000 seconds or
57,600 minutes or
960 hours or finally
5 weeks
YAY!
August 24th, 2007 03:29
CAN’T WAIT!!!!
August 24th, 2007 03:33
5 weeks sounds best.
Taylor, I know what you mean, when I was in honors/AP I always procrastinated or just never did it, not good advice. ALWAYS DO YOUR HOMEWORK! OK! or else you end up being hated by all your teachers cuz they know your smart but bored with school and lazy. Not a nice way to finish off High School.
August 24th, 2007 03:34
rrrrrg you, geometry math packet. quadratic equations, you are the bane of my existance.
August 24th, 2007 03:40
OOPS! I meant that message for Serafina Zane.
I was inly ever in AP history and LA or English, or whatever you call it. My friends though, are in it al the way, even AP Phys.Ed.
August 24th, 2007 03:44
dude, how do you get AP Gym? i would hate that. i’ve got honors english, history, science, everything. which means too much homework. but hey, extras is coming!!!
August 24th, 2007 03:47
AP gym is when they put all the nerds in AP in a separate class, they do everything normal gym studenst would do except they get homework.
August 24th, 2007 03:50
sorry, i had to look up a bunch of stuff for my mom—we only have one computer and i refused to get off, so she made me do it for her.
i never knew there was such a thing as AP gym! idk if we have that in my school. we can’t take any till 10th grade, so i’m just in adv math & science (i’m going into 9th). i hated quadratics till once my teacher explained it in a different way and i was like “OOOHHH!” lol
August 24th, 2007 03:52
What the ? What are quadratics?
August 24th, 2007 03:52
eew, gym HOMEWORK? i’d just about die! what, do they have to write like essays on the history of baseball or something?
August 24th, 2007 03:52
yeah, AP gym threw me for a loop too.
August 24th, 2007 03:55
yeah, that and do a weekly report on an article in the newspaper on the sports section, whatever one you want as long as it’s an actual sport.
August 24th, 2007 03:57
i really hope we don’t have that…i wouldn’t take it anyway, but i wonder who would!
August 24th, 2007 03:58
ugh. gym homework. don’t give me nightmares.
and quadratics are really evil graphy algebra things with equations that you have to memorize that are really long. and my math teachers never make any sense. ever. my seventh grade math teacher was so confusing, she couldn’t even get us to understand adding and subtracting negatives because she explained it so badly.
August 24th, 2007 03:58
oh yeah, and like a quadratic equation. like one that makes a parabola when you graph it, etc. it’s like a huge topic, so idk if i could completely explain it…
August 24th, 2007 04:00
i couldn’t explain it cuz i can’t understand it. i have math issues
dude, how far off-topic have we gotten?
what was the post even about? oh yeah, awesome t-shirts.
August 24th, 2007 04:04
lol really. about the topic, i mean. hillary!, if you’re still there, did you get a shirt (or two, or ten)?
August 24th, 2007 04:05
I HATE PARABOLAS!!!!!!!!!!!!
They are awful! and I had a really good Algebra 2 Teacher. She was so cool but those things were horrible for brain! The worst teacher in the world is Mrs. Richardson, my first algebra teacher, she lost two weeks into the first semester, so I either slept in that class or read. Then at the beginning of the second semester I HAD to change, so I got Mrs. Corridi! She is soooo cool! I drove her insane^.^
To get AP gym you have to be in a special IB program.
August 24th, 2007 04:05
*lost ME
August 24th, 2007 04:08
i officially finished the first page of my math packet. only like ten to go. better than last year though, that one was like 30 pages.
August 24th, 2007 04:09
what does “IB” stand for? *wracks brain* nope, still don’t know!
August 24th, 2007 04:09
No, I dont have money and my parents DO NOT support my book/author obsessions, they already think I should be put in the loony bin. I got excited about the fact that I chatted with Justine and they commented on the fact that if I was accepted to Yale or someplace like that I wouldn’t be as happy as the day i chatted with Justine. And they’re correct. Why would I go to Yale if I want to be a librarian?
August 24th, 2007 04:10
International Bacleareats sp?
August 24th, 2007 04:13
i have no idea what the second word means. even with my vocabulary exceeding that of most others in my class, i’ve never seen that word before…*grabs dictionary* MUST LEARN!
August 24th, 2007 04:21
have you guys seen the *Utter, Utter Silliness* post? it’s so MJ!
August 24th, 2007 04:29

August 24th, 2007 09:53
I would LOVE “the smoke lives” on a long sleeved, hooded tee. Do you know if more styles of the clothes are coming out soon??
August 24th, 2007 11:52
