  4. For those of you who saw my response to the last post, i will be posting the screenplay as soon as i can. 🙂

  5. I have never been to a book signing.

    Sigh….

    I plan to catch Scott before one of us dies though — hopefully that will happen.

  7. I plan to catch Scott before one of us dies though — hopefully that will happen.

    Wait . . . hopefully one of us will die?

  8. Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, Montana?!?!

    Total and utter crap.

    Also, to the whole “dying” scenario occuring in the posts above, I should sure hope that either, rather, both of you two die EVENTUALLY. I’d be a bit terrified if Mr. Scott Westerfeld were to be around for hundreds and hundreds of years.

    Er, I guess I won’t have to worry about that either.

    Also, the wording from that quote made me giggle in a happy way.

    Good to see you posting, Mr. Westerfeld!

  9. Also, a single-digit post is a rare occurrence for me as well.

    And what an odd looking word “Occurrence” is.

  10. i think im going to enter the contest must ask my mother. forever 21 has cool skinny jeans i love skinny jeans so comfy…

  14. which brings me to say that during english class today, it was reading period, right? so basically the teacher made us talk about the books that we were reading so that she could confirm that we were actually reading it. so for the book i had read (well, one of them anyways) it was “The Last Days” by Scott Westerfeld (duh) and so then my english teacher was all “have you read Uglies” and I was all “YES!!!! have you?” she was all, “i’ve read the first” and so i was all grinning to myself thinking “she’s on MY side”…it was so funny….and then my friend who I had forced to read Midnighters had to tell the teacher about it and I was looking at her and my friend made one little mistake (can’t remember what) and i was all “no, it’s……” and launched into a huge explanation. So then my teacher was all “so you really like this author, don’t you?” and I was all “yeps.” then went back to reading a book. Then she and my friend exchanged glances and I’m pretty sure that she realised that I was the one that caused the giant outbreak (aka five people read the same book) of everyone reading Midnighters and so now I’m forcing the new girl to read “So Yesterday” and yeah….As you can see, I’m very controling of these things……

  16. I made most of my friends read midnigters, uglies, peeps and the last days. For some reason, none of them want to read The Risen Empire. weird…

    Oh yeah, I also made the school library buy copies of all the uglies series. heh heh…

  17. I like it when Scott-la posts! And with the whole stalker thing…you are not alone.
    And nice Andrea-la with the book thing.
    [nerds–UNITE!]]ha.

  18. lol…my friends refused to read Uglies when I told them that they had to….probably cuz they don’t wanna think ’bout how bad the world’s gonna end up in a couple hundred years.

  19. i kinda hope is does end up like that… well not really. but i hope my great great great grandchild or whatever gets to be a special. now thats cool!

  22. Once again. Why not colorado. . . although Stephenie Meyer did come here . . .
    I don’t have time to worry about 300 yrs from now. . I just need to get through the week.

  23. OMG! I used to live in Dayton OH!!!!! But then I moved to San Antonio!!!!! That is sooooo unfair!!!!! Scott, you HAVE to come to San Antonio, Texas!!!!!!!!!

  24. If you don’t come to San Antonio, I will forget all about you and quit re-reading Uglies! I will be only a Potter fan and a Twilighter!!!

  29. *sigh* I’m so depressed. You’ve no idea how much I wanted to go to the signing at J-Beth. I go there ALL THE TIME. And they have such cool toys for the little kids!!! I had a babysitting job for a quick fifteen minutes, guess where we hung out, that’s right. J BETH.

    But I had play rehearsal which I can’t miss, and sooo much homework.

    At least I went to one of your signings, Scott. But still…

  30. I think it’d be wayyyyyyyyy great to have a future like Uglies/Pretties/Specials
    ‘Cept I’d outlaw the crims, ’cause otherwise they’d totally harsh my mellow.

  31. man. it’s never close to my little town. *pouts*

    anyways i hope you and Justine have fun in Ohio and Missouri!

    well i’m gonna go check out that contest now….

  32. i wish that we had a future like uglies/pretties/specials cuz then i’d have a hoverboard….cuz i check ebay EVERY STINKING WEEK AND THEY NEVER HAVE HOVERBOARDS!

  33. I could probably still go. But I wouldn’t finish my lab report. Which, I checked, if I don’t do will take my grade down to a C. And the B I have not is just too low.

    I want to be there so much.

  37. aw….the world is stupid….i mean, i’ve heard of a fifth grader inventing a hoverboard out of a leafblower, but breaking it by ridinging it in the gym….g2g…stupid choir concert….

  39. NO! Le gasp! Scott can’t die! Neither can Justine! They’re like The God and Goddess of all things bookworthy! My English teacher gave us a long term assignment. Basically, we have to fall madly in love with a popular person that hates our guts cuz we’re so dang pushy and have to make it TOTALLY obvious that we like them, and make sure we’re so annoying that we get rejected multiple times. Just so we can understand the mood of Romeo And Juliet when we read it. Can’t wait!

  40. Hmmmm…interesting contest but i already have a signed copy and i don’t shop at Forever 21, just not my style but watever. ya i agree that an Uglies future would be TOTALLY cool. actually it’d be cool to have that happen right now, but sadly it’s not. ya i’ve heard about some hoverboards that hover a whole 10 FEET of the ground and cost sooooo much it makes my head spin. *sigh*
    Tally&Zane: that project sounds interesting. but does that mean u actually have to tell a popular person at ur skool that u like them or like a famous person?? coz if it’s someone at ur skool well that sucks, but a famous person would be cool. i’d choose Billie Joe Armstrong.
    Director: Can’t Wait!!!!

    GREEN DAY!!!!! <3
    Bite my lip and close my eyes.
    Take me away to paradise.
    I’m so damn bored I’m goin’ blind.
    And loneliness has to suffice.
    Bite my lip and close my eyes.
    I’m slipping away to paradise.
    Some say quit or i’ll go blind,
    But it’s just a myth.

  41. that sounds like fun! sort of…

    it would be fun to annoy the hell out of some popular kids… but then they’d think that you actually do like them. which is not so fun

  44. Oh *insert popular person’s name here*, I love you, and I shall stalk, annoy, bug, pester, irritate and generally piss you off until the day you die!

  48. lol…i did that last year to some random populare person….actually, more like i stalked her, and sang harry potter songs in her ear all day….good times, good times….last year she switched schools, can’t IMAGINE why…..

  51. I sang that whole song at super-speed ’bout ten times in a row in the populare girl’s ear til the teacher caught me and told me to stop……

  53. Tally & Zane: That is SERIOUSLY your English assignment? Is your teacher on some questionable substances, or is the curriculum just that screwed up now adays? People can’t exactly force themselves to “fall madly in love” with a popular person, or force them to be annoyed by them (although the second would actually be easy, annoying people isn’t hard). I mean, all you’ll learn is how to be humiliated.

  54. Andrea-la: Haha, sonds hilarioius! Don’t think I could sing it super fast, though, I suck with tongue twisters. Wish I had the guts to do that. I have no problem with telling a popular person off when they’re rude to me, but I’m not exactly that well liked in my school, so I don’t bother to push whatever they have up their butt in regards to me.

  57. I guess I’m the only one that got the humor in that. The teacher made a joke. He wanted to have us imagine a scenario that could be vaguely similar so we can relate to Romeo and Juliet. He doesn’t want us to really do that. Just think about what it would feel like. It was drop dead funny. And I have staring contests with this one popular boy across the room in Spanish 2! Seriously! He’ll just sit there, staring at me, unblinking. And so I stare right back, and that’s basically what I do during class. Neither of us have won yet though, it’s always a draw! And I mean, we’re not lame and are screaming across the class HEY! I CHALLENGE YOU TO A STARING CONTEST! It’s just unspoken. But it’s pretty funny.

  58. ooh that’s so fawesome! I hope it does get made into a movie, because it follows the book really well, unlike some crappy movies i could mention (The Golden Compass, cough, cough)

  60. so i have good news!

    I JUST FINISHED BOGUS TO BUBBLY!!!

    picture this:

    it was the last day of the scool book fair… (stupidly of me, i hadn’t even known we HAD a book fair) our class went to go check it out… during LAST PERIOD.

    im looking around with my friends saying things like: “have it.” “read it.” “hated it.” “you NEEN to read that.” all until i came to BOGUS TO BUBBLY. i screamed. my friends started shushing me and my whole class was cracking up. i snatched one from the shelf before anybody could hurt it and started scream/whispering (considering the book fair WAS in the library) about how it wasn’t supposed to come out til the 21st.

    then i decided “why am i sitting here talking about it!?” and started reading. then i realized I DONT HAVE ANY MONEY, and started desperately and FRANTICLY asking around. the only person in my class with money was a stupid guy who really doesnt like anybody in the class, and therefore, wouldn’t give me any.

    luckily, after BEGGING and PLEADING, Vicky-la let me borrow HER copy that SHE bought. cuz she had money.

    so now im happy. 🙂

    and HAPPY LATE EXTRAS!!! sorry. its kinda delayed.

    -Lizzy-wa OUT! :mrgreen:

  62. OMG! I didn’t know Bogus to Bubbly was out!!
    !!
    !!

    lol
    also….
    I LIVE IN OHIO!

    I WOULD SOO COME TO THE DAYTON ONE

    but I have soccer. 🙁

    and now that the books out (I just ordered it on amazon) we need an

    UGLIES MOVIE!!! ♥

  69. hehe. im so happy! but now i feel really bad for you guys… if i new where you lived, id ship it 2 you. hehe.

    you guys havent gotten it yet cuz amazon sells books a lot. like, there really good at it. so they NO that BOGUS TO BUBBLY doesnt come out til the 21st. like good booksellers. whereas, for some reason, scholastic doesnt. which is wierd. cuz like, all they do is SELL BOOKS.

    stupidness.

    but luckiness for me!

    -Lizzy-wa OUT! 😀

  76. don’t know. don’t care. i wrote a story about one for english class. i bet i failed. just cuz it was that random….here it is:
    Once upon a time, there lived a gnu named Wallie. He knew that it would be a bad idea to enter a rollar-skating competition, but did so anyways. There were two other gnus entering the competition as well, but Wallie knew that he had a good chance at winning.
    Race day came, and they lined up at the starting line. The dude with the whistle blew it and the race began. The other two gnus fell amost imediatly, but Wallie kept going. He saw food all over the ground, and he knew that it would distract him to look at, so he looked directly ahead. Because of this, he didn’t see the foot-long hot dog that was coming up right in front of him.
    He tripped on the hot dog and skidded….then he saw it! A neon green picket fence!!! But he was still skidding, and he couldn’t stop! Suddenly, his left eye was full of blood and the medical team of elephants had to come and take him to the hospital. They concluded that he had tripped on a magical foot-long hot dog and that his left eye had been completely removed by the neon green picket fence.
    Most of Wallie’s injuries healed over time, but one never healed. His eye, still to this day, rests in the stomach of a traveling bird, who picked it up after the competition. Or maybe now it is in poop-form on the ground of some desert in Alaska. No one really knows. All we know is that Wallie, is now known as Wallie the One-Eyed Gnu, and that he hates that. There are many other stories having to do with Wallie the One-Eyed, some involving lemons that shine like stars, but for now, this is all we know about Wallie. Someday, Wallie will die and we will know everything about him, but until then, he shall be known as Wallie the One-Eyed Gnu, who didn’t know how to rollar-skate.

    The End

  78. omg omg so i have an interview with a talent agent on Thursday and i have to perform a short monologue and my mom was like do something you know and love so naturally i think UGLIES!!! so im performing what Tally says at the end of specials…i’m so exicted i always wanted to have a reason to perform it!!

  80. lucky…i wish i could perform that in drama class at school…that would be mega-cool….instead, in drama class we have to do a speech about something that happened to us….so i’m writing about the time when me, my brother, my cousin, and my brother’s friend were put in charge of making supper and we almost set the house on fire…good times, good times….

  81. lol…i have more stories about Wallie the One-Eyed Gnu…I’m gonna write them down and hand them in for english class if we have to write another short story….the next one is gonna be the one with the alien invasion and how Wallie sees it coming cuz it turns out that the eye he still has is like a super-eye and he can see through it like a telescope or something!

  84. Wallie the One-Eyed Gnu … I can’t remember what a gnu is … oh that’s right I saw them at the zoo … Well it’s not surprising he can’t rollerskate, with four legs and hooves …

    AND I HAVEN’T SEEN BOGUS TO BUBBLY OUT HERE IN AUS EITHER. I WANT BOOK!

    An Uglies movie would be sparky!
    But I guess it won’t come out for a while, if at all … cos u got planning, filming, post-production, come out in movies in different places at different times, then come out on DVD in different places at different times … That’s about three years at the least …

    I love the song Decode by Paramore. Is sparky! Is going into Twilight movie, too! 🙂
    I’m listening to it at the mo. It’s not out yet (I think … ) but you can listen to it on their website 🙂

    Director, great screenplay! Seriously, it’s good work!

  85. Director: SOOOOO COOL!!!!! i wish that was actually for the movie and that the movie would come out, but that was cool that u made ur own. i could actually picture the movie in my mind. it takes alot of talent to do that.
    The movie is actually supposed to come out this year but i don’t think that will happen.
    Tally&Zane: ur English teacher is weird, funny, but weird.

    hey, did anyone look at my post for Name THis Book?? just wondering. don’t rush to read it.

    GREEN DAY!!! <3

  86. Awww, I’m not eligible for the book comp! It’s for Canadaliens and U.S.A.liens.
    Yes I know I put aliens on the end of those words. Was fun 🙂

  87. Ha, doing that to understand Romeo and Juliet better. I read Romoeo and Juliet last week. It’s funny. Not as romantic as everyone says, for a couple of reasons, but it still is pretty romantic.
    I’d love to do something that fun for English, but my English teachers (I have two this year … ) always set boring work.

  88. HAHAHHAHHAHAHAHA!!!! 😆

    ohmygosh Sonja-la! hehe. you had me CRACKING UP at the USAliens! hehehehhehehehehehehehehehehe!

    -Lizzy-wa OUT! 😛

  90. Anyone live anywhere near Bluffton??
    (:
    Scott, there are so many things I want to ask you about your books. I definately want to have dinner with you and discuss the Uglies series!! lol

  93. TODAY IS MATT DAMON’S BIRTHDAY!!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATT!!!!!! he’s my favourite actor even if he is for Obama and slammed Sarah Palin on TV…oh well. speaking of Obama…today my mom had me look at a Obama/Biden sign really quick and told me to read it. i was like ok… and i said “Obama… Bin… oh wait i meant Biden not Binladen” i started to say it so it would sound like Osama Binladen… weird. sorry for the spelling.

    Now off to softball…ugh it’s cold.
    comment 93/ 9+3=12 AHHHH!!!
    GREEN DAY!!!!<3

  95. oh and today i had a fitness test in gym, so i’m basically the equivilent of braindead, except that i’m still smart enough to make a fool of myself….yeah….

  98. Grrr. . . Lizzy-wa I so totally hate you right now. I NEED Bogus to Bubbly so much right now…

    Scott-la, will you be coming to KY? Because we’re right under Ohio, seriously, I live near Lexington, which is like almost right across the border. Seriously, what’s with avoiding us? We’re not all rednecks. . . I find that my family is quite the opposite. Although we’re originally from Indiana… Wait no, my dad was born in Tenassee… Ugh, still. Come to Kentucky.

    My teacher didn’t show up for my math class. Haha, that got your attention, right?
    Well I’m special- at my new school, they only have regular classes and one level higher. I’m two levels higher in math, so a 7th grade teacher is helping me during her planning time. Well, she didn’t show up today -.- Luckily I thought to check her room for my book and stuff, or I’d have been bored for an hour and a half.

  99. during math class today it was so funny…cuz we did the lesson involving the question with the word “triskaidekafobia” (fear of the number 13) and nobody but me could pronounce it!!! yeah. and then i’m all, well, if you have tristkaidekafobia, would you like spiders? then everyone kinda looked at me like i was weird or something…..but the question makes SENSE!

  106. what grade are you in Emily-wa?

    i have math test tomorrow. and a social studies test. instead of having tests on all the chapters seperate, the test is on the ENTIRE BOOK! and we’ve only been reading it for 3 weeks! and we also have to put like, 30 cities in washington in the rite spot. i dont even no half of them!

    sucks much.

    hehe. triskaidekafobia. i thought it was triskaidekaPHobia… but i guess im rong… hehe. spiders… hehe.

    i have a baby spider living in my room! i named him Sping. hehe. and the one downstairs is named Timmy by my sister. my family likes spiders. they prevent ugly poo-eating flying bugs, and the cobwebs are good considering Halloweens in like, a couple weeks!

    hehe.

    -Lizzy-wa OUT! 😛

  110. oh yeah, it is. Halloween is in a couple of weeks. My friend’s birthday is Halloween. So lucky…

    We should have a giant party at chasing midnight werewolves for Halloween

  115. Lizzy-wa, I’m in 8th grade. 10th grade math, which is Algebra 2.

    I’m not a fan of Seventeen, either… Or any of those kinds of magazines.

  116. i don’t mind Brio magazine…..and i wish that they would let me into some sort of advanced math…..i’m just in regulare math for my grade cuz my school doesn’t have a system for advanced math….i can’t wait til next year when i can take pre-calculus.

  117. Emily-wa: Algebra 2? Impressive. I think it’s okay, good mindless entertainment, but nothing compared to a good, actual BOOK, lol.
    Andrea-la: I have to take Calculus in 12th grade. I’m terrified, lol.

  119. wat? i love math….speeking of which, my math teacher STILL hasn’t gotten around to giving me extra math sheets…..and i really wanted to start working on next year’s math….

  123. well, if your in 8th grade (Emily-wa) then why does a 7th grade teacher help you with math.

    yeah. im in 10th grade 2. in 8th grade. but our 10th grade math is Geometry. i get to take Advanced Algebra/Trig next year. but its SOOOOOOOO boring! its like, the EXACT same thing as Algebra! you shood SEE how full my arms are!

    i dont read magazines…

    a Halloween CMW party wood be foolio…

    -Lizzy-wa OUT! 😐

  124. lol….my mom and brother were at a volley ball game tonight (bleh to the power of infinity) so my dad and i got to eat dinner alone. which is fun cuz me and my dad talked ’bout astronomy and such and eventually we got onto the topic on dimensions and of course that lead to me saying “WAIT!!! I READ ‘BOUT THAT IN GRADE FOUR!!!” so I went and looked on my bookshelves for “A Wrinkle In Time” and i basically read the part about the tesseract….so yeah….that’s what happens when me and my dad have supper alone. If my brother is there too, but my mom is gone, then sometimes we have math competitions!!!! Yeah….it’s mega-fun.

  126. Emily-wa: ur in 8th grade and taking Algebra 2?? gosh!! i’m in 9th and taking Algebra 1… AGAIN!! ya a 2nd time…not coz i’m dumb but coz my math teacher SUCKED in 7th and 8th grade and i totally didn’t understand ANY of it. but now i have a GREAT teacher and am currently aceing Algebra. YAAA!!!!
    Andrea-la: ugh…..i don’t UNDERSTAND U!!!! HOW CAN U LOVE MATH?!?!?! it just doesn’t add up (hahaha math humor). seriously i can’t stand it. English is my best subject. I LOVE IT!!! oh and the new JUST figured out that ur weird. huh… she needs to read this blog. i don’t even personally know u and i knew that! but i think ur weird in a good way…like the world needs more people like u…or maybe it’s just cool that u act like urself and not like everyone else…sooo…ya…that’s cool.

    GREEN DAY!!!! <3
    Today’s the Macy’s Day Parade.
    The line of the living dead is on its way.
    With the credit reports for duty call.
    It’s a life time guarantee.
    Stuffed in a coffin 10% more free.
    Red light special at the moselium.
    What’s the concelation prize?
    Economy sized dreams of hope.

  127. hmmmm… just read about the dinners with dads. ya my dad and i would start talking about religion or politics or something and then it would end REALLY badly. sooo ya best to avoid those topics with me.

  128. lol….and the new girl at my school says that she’s met weirder people than me….which i guess makes sense, seeing that she’s met my friends.

  129. and i love math cuz it’s just fun. math is so awesome in every single way!!! i mean, physics makes the world go round, and math is at the roots of that!!! Math is everywhere so why not love it? Also, I’m forcing the new girl at my school to read Uglies….so far I’ve randomly been quoting it throughout the day and she’s all “WHAT DOES THAT MEAN???” and i’m all “Read the book”…..and she’s all “just let me finish this one first”….but then she decided that she’d rather read So Yesterday, and I’m fine with that….as long as she gets around to Midnighters eventually…..Also, it’s official, I’ve forced ALL FIVE OF MY FRIENDS TO READ MIDNIGHTERS DESPITE THE FACT THAT THEY DON’T TRUST MY JUDGMENT IN BOOKS!!!! Yeah.

  131. Andrea-la: huh. watever u can like math i don’t care. just stop using cliches *cringes*. and about the new girl… haven’t u ever heard that peer pressure is BAD!! but i must give u props for trying to get her to read Uglies and all of Scott’s books. soo PROPS!! my friends read them(well most do. some just don’t read. ugh…i need to break the habit for them)

    GREEN DAY!!!! <3
    Hey there looking at me.
    Tell me wat do u see?
    As u quickly turn ur head away.
    Tried to find the words i could use.
    Don’t have the courage to come up to u.
    My chance is looking a bit grey.

  132. So, I just finished reading “Pretties” for the third time, and it makes me so sad!
    I just wish that Tally wasn’t put into so many hard situations! 🙁
    Ughhhh

  133. Hannah-la: i know wat u mean.

    Hey, just to let y’all know(hmmm…i’ve never used that before) i just posted a few more ideas for titles for the Analogy book. not as great as my others but watever (hmmm… with my luck though they probably already have a title and i’m wasting my creativity on NOTHING. i wonder if Scott even looks at that post any more?? *sigh*

    GREEN DAY!!!! <3

  134. Ello. I have major-le been busy with my story. I am having such a hard time. But i just need to concentrate…

    See i tell myself that when the truth is I’m easily discouraged. So one day, i think my story plot is great, and the next day its horrible. I dont know what to do!!!

  135. TYC Leader: I’m not being TOO weird to the new girl….just weird enough to get her curiousity and keep her away from the majority of the population at my school cuz they would suck out her originality. And, in this case, i’m using peer presure to keep her from REAL peer presure. Also, I’ve already forced all my usual friends to read scott’s books, so now i’ve got to work on someone else….

  136. I have this book with all sorts of wierd phobias in it. There was that triskaidekaphobia. And heaps of others, like the fear of baths, etc.
    I’m not a triskaidekaphobalien, I’m quite the opposite. The number 13 is one of my faves 🙂
    I like putting alien on the end of words, it ends up turning even boring words into hilarious words.

    Since we’re all putting in our grades and stuff, I’m in 8th grade. We don’t have different classes cos we’re all meant to be smart, I go to an academically selective school … Still, I wonder how some people got in …

    TYC Leader, not all peer pressure is bad … my school teachers and Youth teachers keep telling me that …
    Besides that’s not being too weird to the new girl. Nor is it bad peer pressure. Maybe she needs the good books? 🙂

  137. HAPPY YOM KIPOR (sp?) TO EVERYONE CELEBRATING!!
    Andrea-la: Not too big a math fan. I mean, poverty and sickness are all around us, and there are PLEANTY of reasons not to love that. Well, not that math is as bad as that, lol. I forced three of my friends to read about every young adult book Scott-la has written (except one finds TLD a bit confusing, one has two more books to go, because I’m forcing the Twilight series on them also, and one refuses to read Extra’s because she feels Scott-la is being all hypocritical even though I TELL her that it’s fawesome!), and still have one more who I want to force to read Midnighters! Lol. Huh, you’re being all mysterious to the newgirl. Dess-la! Lol.
    Sonja: It’s one of my fave numbers too, in a great part to Midnighters. I put “icle” or “ish” on the ends of words, and my friends and I have entire conversations like that, lol-icle. I do have different classes, and am in a lot of honors ones, but I’m guessing quite a few people just self-selected.

  138. I’m in year nine, but I have no idea what that is in the U.S.A.liens… I’m in the advanced learning program, which I guess is the same as honours

  139. TYC Leader-la: me and my dad always get into huge conversations about religion and polotics too!!! hehe. but we always agree on every thing. (mostly) so it usually just ends funnily.

    hehe. it said “YOM KIPOR BEGINS AT SUNDOWN” on my school calendar yesterday and everybody was going around saying it. hehe. nobody new what the heck it ment. hehe.

  140. awwwww. i can’t go to the book signing in Kansas City tonight because I have to go to a funeral. I don’t even know the guy, but it is important that i am there. 🙁

  141. So, I learned in Biology today, that there’s this bacteria called Leptospira Interrogans, and if you get it, you basically turn into a peep! You develop photophobia, which means that you are afraid of light, but my teacher says it actually is when you become super sensitive to light. Like a vampire!

  143. My Science class is so BORING! It’s all basic stuff 🙁 I know everything I’m ‘taught’ in class …
    My most interesting class is art, where I actually learn stuff, but that’s mostly boring stuff about boring artists like Duchamp … but I like art anyway 🙂 And at least Duchamp had a sense of homour – I mean, a toilet being a work of art? (Tho that was the whole point of it …)

    My calender said that Yom Kipor began at sundown too and I was like “Wha?” Probs some religious thing …

    I’m getting the first Midnighters book soon, can’t wait! I have the other two, sitting and waiting in my room, but I’m trying to break my habit of reading books out of order …

    Talking about vampires, there are some good songs going on the Twilight soundtrack! Supermassive Black Hole by Muse and Decode by Paramore 🙂 I love that song Decode! And yet another song by Paramore is too 🙂 !
    Those song selections are happy-making 🙂

  145. My daughter Katelynn has read and re-read the first 2 books. She just now got ahold of Specials, and unfortunately, we just missed you in Columbus! Maybe next time.

  147. In addition, custom fleece blankets at the moment are available in a brand new and very widely used fabric that is inflicting an actual buzz within the marketplace. These are called Sweatshirt Blankets. The fabric is made of a selection of blended supplies that mostly include cotton. This product feels just like your preferred cozy sweatshirt. Device washable, this these blankets are a confirmed winner. Similar to that of the fleece blankets, the sweatshirt blanket comes in a mixture of colors and sizes as well. It’s also obtainable in a roll w/ handle or as a folded blanket packaged in a bag.
