Three quick things while I write the end (END!) of Leviathan.
1) Extras has been long-listed for a 2008 Inky Award. Go to the Australian YA site Inside a Dog to peruse the rest of the list.
2) An interview with me on the UK YA site Chicklish.com.
3) A wicked cool Uglies-inspired video from Caitlin:
Mad PhotoShop skills on display, plus I’ve never heard that song before . . .
i got invited to that Ambassador thing, but it cost $200 and i didn’t know what it did, either. so i didn’t do it.
PrettyxMindedxRusty: Im getting the black and blue on in the bottom right, it SHOULD be here in a couple days(please mail system)
My friend wants the panda one, She used to have like kitty ones too, and can prolly custom make them which is awsome
Audrey-Sensei: eek thats alot for me, i wish they had scholarships
i know, but it doesn’t really seem worth it. everyone’s like “oh it was great i loved it!” but i’d rather save the money for that exchange student trip to spain this summer!
Because I’ll totally make the Top 100 😉
Arghh! I got invited to it a couple times before, but not this year! I don’t know why I didn’t this time! What really sucks is my mom said that she’d consider letting me do it this time!!!! AH! I SO want to! Before, she said I was too young to be gone for so long and so far away…yeah cuz I’m like SO much more mature than last year(please note major sarcasm here)
Audrey, hahahahaha i know right? too many love stories about vamps. actually i loooove vampire stuff, but more action packed. 🙂 lolol. do you have fb or something so we can chat about stuff. i’ve got a million ideas, and i already have a few stories goin. but we can totally do something dif. 😀 lol i’m kinda excited.
I dont that kind of money plus my sibs get invited too so too much money
OMG, Audrey, you’re going to Spain? where?? i’m going too! =]]
spain sounds fun
though so does alot of places
Shan-la! my sn is audball618 and i’m on facebook, too (under Audrey Knox; the picture is of me in braids hugging my friend).
yeah, i really want to go to spain, because i’ve been studying spanish for 3 years, and i’m looking at exchange programs and stuff, but i really really want to go to barcelona.
IM me! (that goes for anyone else here, too. my friends are never on)
Because I’ll totally make the Top 100 😉
I dont have a fave book, how about a aim?
sooooo i couldn’t read the 30 new posts… 1. becasue i’m lazy, and 2. there is no way i have time. i’m SWAMPED with homework. 🙁 and i just got done with softball practice that i am required to go sit at even though i can’t practice… and they won’t let you do your homework either. it sucks.. i hate watching.
PrettyxMindedxRusty… yes she’s doing great she’s still one of my best friends. she does have a really big scar that goes from a few inches into her hair line down through her eyebrow… and a couple metal plates in her head… that whenever we fly with her we always tease her that she’s gonna set off the alarm going through security! lol.
so guess what… i’m so pumped about being on the student newspaper! we have this little pass, it’s called a “Journalism Press Pass” that gets me into all the sports games, and pretty much everything else for free! haha! and the magic pass lets us leave school in the middle of the day to go and drive around to businesses and sell ads in our paper. and we can go out to lunch! 🙂 and the other nice thing about it is that we can leave our journalism class and roam the halls looking for a story. can you tell i is excited? we just got them today and they’re awesome!
OH MY GOSH THAT’S SO COOL! I wish I could do that! But…I’m not in journalism! Darn. Oh, gosh I HATE watching when I can’t play! It’s really frustrating, lol. Good luck with the homework!
Journalism would be cool, but I dont know if I could do it, not committed enough.
My elective I’m tutoring kids in reading at an elemetary school near my school. I like kids most of the time, when they arnt tring to act older than they should be.
Aw, that’s awesome! I used to work with the kidergarton and 1st grade and teach them how to read, taking time out of class for it and it was awesome! They’re so cute and most of them are sweet! Now someone replaced me since I’m so busy! *sniffs*
AHHH!!!! THAT essay was absolutely amazing.
very true.
amazing.
At my elementary school all the sixth graders had a kindergarden buddy
once a week you’d go and do something with them
we even went on feild trips with them
Aw, that’s cool! I had a first grade little buddy!
I only like really little kids like kindergarden through about 3rd/4th grade any younger and they can be alot to handle older and they think they’re older and can be really annoying
thanks Audrey-sensei
effing incredible video.. props on the photoshop skills 🙂 but that totally is an awesome vid for uglies.. if there was ever a movie, i would put that in the trailer.
aim is cool, gaaah i’m bored. guess what? my little brother (he’s in 6th grade) has been banned from video games and playing with his friends today by my parents for now doing the dishes. so, basically all he can do is read. and i got him to start my copy of Uglies! we’ll see how he likes it…
Because I’ll totally make the Top 100 😉
haha nice
I made my sister read Peeps because she ran out of steven king to read(we have like all of his books) she liked it even though its not her kind of book
Audrey-Sensei do you have an Aim account though??
i think so, idk… my screen name (like i said b4) is audball618. i don’t really use the aim site for anything.
you read stephen king? that’s hella cool. i haven’t but he’s definitely on my list of books to read.
Because I’ll totally make the Top 100 😉
yep yep it is pretty fawesome! today i went out selling ads and then went out to eat at Burger King. me n my partner had pretty much no clue what to do (cuz were both 1st year journalism students) and no one explained it to us so we were really confused. but it’s all good… cuz we sold the most! 😛
and today at practice was better than yesterday. even though i still had to watch… coach had me doing stuff so i wasn’t so bored.
i had a 1st grade buddy when i was in 5th grade. it pretty much rocked. we made green eggs and ham.
i start school in a week (sept 2). it’s almost a week after everybody i know….ah well.
i’m like crying cuz i just watched a vid on utube bout ivoniva and marcus, and it’s SOOOO SAD!!! gosh i shouldn’tve watched that!
I have no clue who they are, but…don’t cry!
I dont know if anyone elses journalism class does this but we always make a shirt. And this year our shirts are going to say “We have issues”
You get it!? I thought it was hilarious.
Ha, that’s awesome!
dude, ya’ll are so lucky! i kinda wanted to be in journalism, but our newspaper sucks and the articles are lame. but i like the shirt idea! school starts tomorrow… meh, not excited!
Because I’ll totally make the Top 100 😉
that is hilarious!! i love it!!! we’re still deciding on what our shirts and hoodies are gonna look like.
we just started our newspaper back up last year so its really bleh, thats why I dont really want to join. Plus I only got like 4 or five last year, meh
HAHA! I have another WEEK of summer! woohooooooooo! i dont think we have a newspaper anymore. I dont like the newspaper stuff anywho. My school is messed up. For some reason on wednesdays we start an hour late. We get to sleep in and all, but i dont get WHY. : / Of course, im not complaining about another hour of sleep.
Hey our wednesdays we get out an hour earlier than usual. It so that teachers can plan and what-not. Well the high school and junior high do, the elementary school get half their day off n wed day….Those were the times.
I still have another week til school, not until sep 3, we usually start later but labor day is the first, bleh
you guys are so lucky!!!!! we go 5 days a week from 8 to 3:07… no breaks. nothing. i wish i got to sleep an hour later on wednesdays or get out an hour earlier!
i start sept 3rd too! hmmmm… the teachers are PLANNING are they? i for one still think they are PARTYING.
Scott-la, whats happening with the ‘Uglies’ movie?
poor, scott-sama. he said in an interview that hollywood execs are too stupid to understand uglies. as soon as someone pitches it, they all go “you want to make a movie about *ugly*people????”
so, you see, all they have is a producer. no director. to script. nada. and it’s probably gonna stay that way for at least a while.
Because I’ll totally make the Top 100 😉
Their incompetence amazes me. It’s like so astounding how dumb they can be. But anyway, at least they won’t screw it up.
i soooooo dont want an uglies movie. that would suck. its just they never get it right, like they cut stuff out and no one ever remembers the parts they cut out. then the characters never look right, and it totally ruins the book. people who watch the movie and then read the book will b all like “this book isnt right! tallly does NOT look like that!” and stuff and it ruins everything every time.
what did i scare u all off?
hm…..
WOW!!!
omg soo good i really like!
wow,thats all i can say
im gonna read it
I was watching this like once a days before Scott even featured it. One day in the thing it was like :I’ve been featured in Scott’s blog! And I almost like cried. Congrats.
How do you do photoshop thing?
how long does it take??
where do you even GET photoshop????
so many questions………….
anyway awesome vid awesome song, i can totally imagine the pretties looking like that…. great job!!!!!!
Intimate apparel and lingerie really helped in spicing up my marriage, at first though I thought my hubby might take it the wrong way when I bought her a red babydoll, boy was I wrong.
I have happened to be seeking all over for this stuff. Luckily my partner and i found this on Msn.
This is awesome (:
I love it,
Great job! 😀
