Behold my new beautiful Italian cover!

I Diari Della Mezzanotte means The Diary of Midnight, I presume, which is quite pretty. And I like me a simple iconic rose for a cover image.
One of you can probably translate the tagline better than Google Translator, which can’t do better that, “When midnight chimes worst, nightmares are advancing in the dark.”
Um, yeah. What the machine said.
It comes in Italy out on Thursday, March 5!
Meanwhile, you should all head over to the new fansite, thesmokelives.com, which is the most populated Uglies fansite I’ve seen in a while. (That’s probably because their sister site is His Golden Eyes, which is Twilight-related.)
Enjoy!

Wow scott-la!! Its beautiful:] maybe i’ll buy it from itally?? Lol
oh and i like diary of midnight.. It fits.
OMGSH thats a really pretty title……..
hey Everyone!!!
pretty rose!
I’ve never read any of your non-uglies books
&I prob should
but I absolutely loathe Twilight >.<
its beutifull!
i love how the rose chatches ur eye! ppl! join the scottwesterfeldian pole play site!! it rocks out loud!
how can u hate twilight! i laoth all who hate twilight!
uhm… you hate people who hate twilight?
I’m criticizing literature and you’re hating human beings because of it.
fine, whatever.
There are several reasons why I can’t stand Twilight, and I could rant about it forever, but just a few things:
Bella is a jerk and clumsy, that’s it &that’s all {“Beautiful Swan” —> wait? for real?!?!}
Edward sparkles?!?!?!
Bella is give herself up to be with Edward
there is no development of their relationship… it’s like “omg he’s so pretty”
“I bet she tastes good”
—
“I love you”
*just glares*
“I really love you”
“stay away I am dangerous”
“but I really really love you”
“okay then, I love you too”
oh, then the plot that is not there
Bella is plain and not pretty, but every guy is in love with her, right?
To Edward and Bella: I now pronounce you Gary and Mary Stu.
Yes – I did read Twilight, but only the first… ’cause I really couldn’t get myself to read more. But I read the first to have merit to argue why it is not good literate.
It’s popular ’cause it’s all romantic and so many girls like to imagine they’re Bella and a perfect god slash Abercrombie model is in love with them
*sigh*
*Yawns* hey, this is cool, but here in San Antonio, it’s like 12 midnight. Yeah, yeah, the “blue time” supposedly passed 7 minutes ago… or is it an hour and seven minutes ago? Anyways… yeah I gotta go to bed. I updated the site. Click on mi nombre, as usual. *Yawns* yep. The counter trial expired. To get it full time costs money. Ugh. Nothing of good value is free nowadays. So I just got it again. I got 14 days. Then it’s trial expires. Sheesh. So every 14 days, I have to get a new one, I guess. Jeez. So visit it like you had, folks. Bring it up to speed. Anyways, buenos noches. Good night. Kalinifta. Iyi geceler. Oh, and happy Meatfare Sunday to any Orthodox out there.
Honestly, if I saw that cover I probably wouldn’t pick it up. Sorry, but it’s just too plain for my taste. The title is neat. 🙂
Click my name. 😀
oh, and Meyer writes so patronisingly… like the reader is an idiot and needs everything spelled out
that annoys me insanely!!!
while say Uglies, or Harry Potter gives the reader some credit. oh&—> these books have plots, well-developed characters with strengths&weaknesses&flaws…
Guys. If you want to read the best series in the world, read House of Night. At first, it doesn’t seem that good. But trust me, when you get to Untamed, you will see how incredibly AMAZING it is. And just because it’s about vampires doesn’t mean it’s anything like Twilight. It doesn’t even relate to it! The vamps are different, and the focus isn’t on romance as much, as other much more serious things. Actually, it’s like Harry Potter. In it’s own unique vampire-girlish-cherokee way.
I do love most vampire stories.
Ya know, when the vampires don’t sparkle!
Sounds interesting Alex-wa… I’m due for a trip to the library soon.
Enough babbling. I’m going to bed. Which is right above me. Yup. I have a loft bed with a desk underneath it. I’m on the computer on my desk below my bed. Lol. So anyways, once again, buenos noches, Good night, Kalinifta, Iyi geceler. And happy Meatfare Sunday to any Orthodox out there.
To everyone, one last word: READ HON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! READ IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Neat cover and title, though the cover isn’t too appealing.. .
that cover is pretty cool…i need to read midnighters again, haven’t read them for a while…
it’s the blue time here in five minutes exactly…hehe
Scott, you should be clearer…It took me forever to figure out that this was Midnighters and not some new series.
interresting=D
Is that supposed to be Midnighters or is this some new book I (unfortunately) haven’t heard of yet?
By the way, Twilight isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. I was a really devoted Twi-hard, but then I started finding a lot of flaws in the book and in the way Stephenie Meyer treats her fans. You, however, are much MUCH cooler!
The best I’ve got is:
‘When midnight strikes, the worst nightmares advance in the darkness.’
It’s a bit more literal than I would like, but hey, I’ve only got French and Spanish under my secondary language belt to help with the grammar bit.
I think I’f I tried to read it a bit broader… When midnight strikes, the worst nightmares step out of the dark.
I think that before I die I’m going to buy a foreign Midnighters copy from everywhere I visit in the world, I will make sure to get that one. For the US copies I have to say the face copies aren’t as cool as the others.
OHHHH it’s pretty!
I almost picked Midnighters up last summer when I bought Uglies.
I guess I’ll have to go get it.
Having a site with as much taffic as His Golden Eyes helps, but that’s not the only reason people go there.
I love the Uglies series so I was glad to see someone take the time to make a site.
In response to other comments:
If you don’t like Twilight that’s fine, if you do that’s fine, but try not to attack each other about opinions.
House of Night is an awesome series once you get passed the 1st book.
wow that is a beautifal cover , i wish i had one like that
and i know about the smoke lives, just never really had any intrest for it
Ooooh, purty.
So its NOT a new series?!?!?!
Wow I’m dumb.
OMG……. I totally love the cover and the title. I wish I could read italian…….haha
Wow, that’s gorgeous. And it totally fits. I love how the rose still holds on to its beauty even in the face of its own death. Doesn’t go down without a fight. And Julie-wa, I totally agree with you. I was once a twilight fan, but it’s so mainstream now though, and does definitely not deserve all the hype that it’s getting. It’s okay for a quick read that you’re not gonna analyze I guess, but if you’re actually wanting to read a good book, it isn’t what you should look for. Because if you think, you see past the really thin veil that masks it. And behind it…nothingness incarnated to words.
Man. I should be at church right now. But I have 2 reasons why. I’m still a little sick, so I can’t really sing very well right now. And we sing occapello the whole service. So if you’re there, you pretty much have to sing, and sing well. Not gonna happen. And the second reason? No one woke me up in the first place. I looked at the clock, and it was like 10, and I was like “aww, man.”. And we were going to have backlava! BACKLAVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Because it’s meatfare sunday. Backlava!!!!!!!!! Arg… I’m REALLY hopeing that when my mom gets back, she will have some saved for me. Because, those go fast. Real fast. Oh, she’d better have saved some for me…
And my mom made them. She makes like the best backlava I’ve ever tasted. She’s like the backlava expert. Man, those little tiny diamonds of sweet deliciosness…
And she’s Maddy in my movie, too. So not only will Maddy be a really smart doctor. She will also have uncanny backlava making skills. When in doubt, make backlava. It rules.
Just for the record, it would actually be translated in the plural: “The Midnight Diaries.” Which sounds pretty intriguing, I’d say. 🙂
Whoa! Holy smokes! OMG!!! For some reason I had an inkling to visit The Smoke Lives, and guess what I found at the bottom? Me! Yes!!! They posted my trailer!!!!!!! Whoa… I just can’t belive it! I had NO IDEA how much popularity we were getting! This is soooooo cool, folks… We might actually become famous! How cool is that? I am just so suprised…
Alex-wa, that’s hecka cool you’re on the website! By the way, what’s backlava?
WHAT’S BACKLAVA? WHAT’S BACKLAVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT’S ONLY THE MOST DELICIOUS GREEK/TURKISH DESSERT YOU WILL EVER TASTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Delicious crushed nuts between layers of golden filo dough, drizzled in delicious backlava syrup… you HAVE to taste it!
thats gorgeous
and backlava is LIFE.
Tally&Zane: That was pretty deep. (about the rose and Twilight, and it was true)
I like the cover, it’s simple but in a good way..
I have THE SMOKE LIVES thing (link thing or whatever) on my myspace…represent.
Peace.
Wonderful cover, Scott!
That a cool cover Scott-la. It’s nice. Just plain, but it looks like it has a deeper meaning too…
oh&let me add: sorry Scott-la if I at all offended you by explaining my reasons for loathing of another YA author’s work.
My criticism is not against the fans or human beings, but against the piece of literature. I don’t know Meyer personally, she could be an amazing person… but I don’t believe her writing is amazing.
Just to clarify.
&&Tally&Zane. yep! exactly. one of my friends, before the Twilight hype thought it was a good romantic read for us romantics, but then once it got extra hype it didn’t deserve, some things became more clear about how it actually isn’t that great. It’s fine, just not more Honestly, I am a hopeless romantic, and when if first heard a lil bleep about it I thought it would be good, but I was horridly disappointed.
Even though I am Team David, I still cried miserably over Zane… I love romance! but not like, pathetic romances with no development… like in Disney films, I’ve always preferred Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin because there’s the most development between the couple. Cinderella, Snow White there’s like none! Sleeping Beauty a little, and The Little Mermaid too…
that’s my order of faves even, like of Disney princesses: Belle, Jasmine, Ariel, Aurora, Cindy, Snow… One thing I love about Sleeping Beauty is the development of the Prince which is none in Snow&Cindy
wow – am I rambling ever so much.
backlava… it’s in that song “Never Had A Friend Like Me” from Aladdin, that’s the only time I’ve heard it, haha.
Alex-wa Whats Blacklava?!?!?!?!?
I don’t get why you all hate Twilight!!!
Its an amazing book.
Get Over It.
Ooh, that sounds yummy Alex-wa. Thanks Jay-wa. 🙂 Yeah, exactly Julie-wa. I’m team Zane but I didn’t cry when he died…I just can’t cry about stuff that’s in books or movies like that. But that’s just me I guess. Emi-la, we said why…and you have your opinion that it’s amazing so we can have ours that it isn’t. But it’s not like we’re on a twilight blog, this is scott’s blog, so it only matters that we all love his work, right?
Right, T&Z. And once again to those people, who know who they are,
WHAT’S BACKLAVA? WHAT’S BACKLAVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ONLLY THE MOST DELICIOUS TREAT YOU’LL EVER EAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOGLE IT OR SOMETHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I too don’t believe Twilight series should have so much popularity. And quite frankly I don’t particularly know how they’re going to make the rest of the movies without rating at least one as R, unless they take a lot of stuff out. The plot is a little silly. I mean, I LOVE vampire books. Honestly. But I really think Bella is an idiot. A huge idiot. And yes before you say anything I have read them all. I just think, even if vampires do exist (and they do! Lol) like that, there’s not even a slightest chance of that ever happening. At first I was planning to read Twilight. Way before the hype happened. I thought it would be a good read and what not. But before I got to, a huge hype happened. I didn’t end up reading it until December-January. And all the while I was expecting something really amazing to happen, because of all the hype. If it wasn’t for the hype it probably would’ve been a better read. I mean Harry Potter, that was a really good series (well, until all the books at the end being just fighting) and the hype is understandable. Scott-la’s books, they’re really good and they would make great movies. But I dunno. For Twilight, the huge hype over it just kind of killed it.
In other news, Alex-wa, I got Chosen (the 3rd book) from the library yesterday. I started reading it when I went to bed. I dunno 10-11. I finished the book at 2. Once I start reading it, it’s really hard to stop. *Spoiler Alert!* Honestly, I think Zoey is kind of stupid. Just stay away from Larent. I guess that’s not that hard now though… But if I were her, I would’ve blocked Heath, Ignored Larent and stayed with Erik. I mean, I suppose it was a little hard for her to do that being imprinted and all, but really!
http://thanasis.com/baklavaL.jpg
There is a link to a delicious picture of Baklava! And I misspelled baklava! I put in a c! AAAAAAhhhhh!!!! I think I’m hyper!!!!!! Which means I must not be sick anymore!!!!Yipee!!!!!!!!!
Oh whoops, I didn’t mean to make a post so long. Also, I don’t have anything against the Twilight writer or book really. I just have a huge problem with the huge hype over it.
I was almost panting at the end of Chosen, lol. Yeah, the whole Laren thing is over now, isn’t it? His being dead now and all. LOL. I’m actually glad he died. Now GET UNTAMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s the best book by far!!!!!
I am having issues with the Twilight hype, too, even though I think it’s real good.
I think I’ve tried Baklava before…I’m not sure, but the picture looked firmiliar.
I have Untamed requested at the library right now. I think I’m in position number 2 right now, so not too long. Anyways I’ve got tons of books to read so I need to read those too. I’m also glad that he died. I really hated him. Like everytime he got near her and she liked him I was liek. “Are you nuts! You idiot just stay away from him! Hurt his feelings! Slap him! OMG! Idiot. &%#^(@ . GRrr.”
Lol. Very emotional.
Yeah, I was the same way!!! I have bought every book except Marked, which I got at my library. My library is just really unreliable. They never have the books I want. Like, I haven’t seen Pretties there for like monthes! Unreliableness. That’s why I allways just buy books. Plus, I can get friends hooked with them! LOL.
Ooh, how I wished I had some yummy baklava right now…
Alex-wa srry I was to dumb to read the OTHER posts…
Yep. Thats ok, though.
for the people who hate twilight:
i agree that bella is a self-centered egotistical moron, but so is edward, and that is what makes them perfect for each other
as for those who hate jacob black: kiss my ass, if you are dumb enogh not to realize the amazingness of him, then you deserve edward
for those who haven’t read twilight or won’t give it a chance” try it 9/10 people love it (though Harry Potter is still better)
Yeah! I guess…
And in case any of you are wondering, when I get online, I stay right in front of the computer for hours checking up on here. So that’s why I always know when someone comments! Right now I’m playing a game on my ipod while waiting for people to comment…
Lol, I would buy more books, but 1) my mom hates going places and buying books at a book store, and 2) my library is pretty reliable. Go look it up, it’s in my little website bar thing. It has most every book it seems.
Ooh, see I was talking about my school library. It seems you were talking about a public library. I don’t even know one close to me! I’m sure there is one, but… I don’t know.
Man, I’m so bored! Nothing to do! Other than homework, or make up work, in my case. But you know how that is. Lol.
Well my school library has quite a few books in it too. It has pretties in it. It has most all of Scott-la’s books too.
Lol, yeh I know. I’ve done most of my homework. But I am so glad! There’s supposed to be 5-11 inches of snow tonight where I live. Eeee! I have a big test on Monday and Wednesday. They’re like state tests.
I was sick last Sunday-Monday. It was like the stomach bug, so Sunday night I was throwing up, and I skipped school on Monday, even though if I really wanted to, I could’ve gone.
Ew! Twilight! Awesome looking book, though…
An extra for now. 😉
On tuesday we have our English TAKS test. TAKS, for you people who don’t live in Texas, stands for Texas Assesment of Knowladge and Skills. T.A.K.S. It used to be TEKS, I don’t know what that stood for… maybe Texas Evaluation, or something.
Lol.
Lol, ours are called SOL’s. I think it stands for Standards Of Learning or something like that. That’s what we have here in Virginia.
Ugh, my library stinks. The YA section is TINY! It’s terrible! I’ve been wanting to read So Yesterday, Magic or Madness, the Diamond Brothers Mysteries, and a bunch of others, but they NEVER HAVE ANY OF THEM! Very sad-making. 🙁
Click my name!!! 😀
Yep. My English teacher says that Texas has the best tests. I don’t really know that, of course. Well, we have at least 2 TAKS tests each year…
Most of the time, more, actually.
Our YA section is quite huge (public library). Especially b/c we have like 10 libraries in our county and we can rest stuff from surrounding counties. Hmm, I’ve never realized how big and good my libraries are…
For us it depends on the year, like for me in 8th grade, I have an SOL in each subject, but in 6th and 7th grade I had less.
Well, I don’t really know how large our local libraries are, because I’ve never been to one. Only my school library. But yeah.
I go to my public library a lot. A whole lot more than my school library at least. On my own (without my class) the last time I went to my school library was last school year. In 6th grade though, I went like every single day.
I go every day now, being a Freshman. I have nothing else to do with the rest of my lunch period. So I go to my library to see what’s up with their book situation. Like, if they’d gotten any of Scott’s books back yet, same thing with the House of Night series, and what new books the’ve gotten… ya know. Then I walk up to 3 floor for my next class and wait for the bell to ring. I’m always the first person in. Lol.
Lol. At my school we have only like a 25 minute lunch. It stinks. Then I have french the next period. Stuffing food into me and then going to a boring period do not mix well. *snore*
You in middle school?
Yeh. But I’m in French II. Lol. 8th grade. Wish she was older so she could do more *cough*Drive, Go to mall freely, Be more independent *cough*. Has good friends. Hold emotions in. Has many secrets that no one knows about. Has a dog. Loathe’s her brother. Heart’s Scott-la. Loves rock music, but secretly likes other types of music. Get’s A’s and a few few B+’s.
Yeh, that’s basically me. Lol. YOu’re probably thinking, “ANd why did you say all that??”
Lol, yup, that’s sort of what I was thinking. In my High Schoo, 25 minutes is almost as long as it takes to get your food in the first place if you get there late. Lunch is just like any other period. We have 2 lunch periods. So you either have lunch or a class on those 2 periods. So our lunch lasts as long as a normal period. Hehe.
hehe I didn’t know which scott book it was!!
then I read posts and was like oh wow im dumb
its so ovbious
in other news Twilight sucks bla bla bla…….
as much as I would like to rant right now I wont because it was funner when all of you were Twilight obsesed and Im glad you’v all converted at last but it was funner then…..I still hate the books with a passion.
but I will say this(not my opinion but some news)
aparently some kid in the UK got attacked with acid because he said Twilight is stupid….after the girl did that she started to stab the kid with a compass. The might have lost vision in his eye….thats not the only case of Twitard attacks there are many many more sadly. and its a little nervous making to think that a simple crappy book could turn into an almost full on cult right?
sorrey I said I wasn’t going to rant….sometimes I just can’t help my self when it comes to this
Yeah, I get it, Kristina-la. I don’t hate the books, but I get it. Yup, I agree with the whole cult thing, too. I mean like how it’s stupid. It is scary that a kid got attacked just for that! So much for free speach. LOL.
That would be horrible! (Well is but you know…)
Well, by the end of 6th grade I realized buying my lunch is stupid because it does take like the whole period standing in line just to get my food, so I started to bring my lunch, and that’s worked a lot better.
Yeah. I’d bring my lunch if I were you, too. If you get there early at my school, it only takes a couple of minutes, though. So you like see people fast walking and running to lunch and stuff. Lol, it’s sad. And I’m one of those people. Well, I don’t run, just fast walk. But still, it’s funnily sad. Hehe. Lol.
Okay, I’ve like been on the computer all day, so I’m going to try to find something else to do. Like read. Hehe. So see ya, I guess. TTYL.
Lol, yeh I remember 6th grade when we like ran to lunch. And now when I’m walking in the hall it’s kind of funny watching the 6th graders run to lunch.
Yeh, I’ve been on the computer all day today too, so I better get off. Bye!
Nikki-wa, kiss your ass if you hate jacob? That’s crazy. I can totally see why you wouldn’t like Edward. But I mean, just cuz you don’t like him doesn’t mean you have to like jacob. Personally, I don’t like either of them. But I hate jacob more. He’s a narcissistic a hole, who whines all the time because he can’t get the girl, the lame arse pansy retarded girl that he’s stupid to like in the first place, and then later on he threatens to kill himself because she doesn’t like him. Wow. Cuz I mean I totally love him now for that, he’s so heroic. NOT. He’s the stupidest character ever made. I can’t stand him. I hated him from the first time his name was mentioned. Bleh, yuckyuckyuck.
Sorry, that was a rude rant. No hard feelings.
How can I get my hands on one of those? I’m trying to get more US mainstream YA in italiano.
u guys r gonna kill me but this is midnigters right?
but that came out forever ago…?
brb gonna chck out smoke lives…
Nikki-wa… if I had to choose a Twilight chara, I’d def choose Jacob. He is one of the few redeeming elements of the books… yet Bella is a jerk to him, another reason why I can’t stand her!
ok so it is midnighters
then y the rose?
and my thoughts on twi:
good siries but if u want better vamp books spin around in the YA section in the bookstore w/ ur finger pointed then stop
open ur eyes and buy that book ur pointing to cause vamp books r just so popular now
and stephine meyer:
hey! no picking on her she had a DREAM! and decided to write it.
and then it got published and she wanted to write more
no being mean to her
and u guys:
ur so mean to each other
like “omg. i LOVE TWILIGHT!!!!!and i hate ppl who hate it”
wait..what?
why would u hate some one who uve never met?
i mean u dont know y they hate it
their aunt could of died b.c twilight fell from a building and hit the in the head and then they were in a coa and eventually died
c?
goes for twi haters too
done ranting.
bye!
and bella:
stephanie really is not the best writer
but she has no training and stuff so that was totally not hypocritical!
and so she could say bella was one way one sec and diff the next
i reapeat: not the best writer
not her fault.
but no bella no books so…
but yeah, like Tally&Zane said, he does end up pathetic…
ugh – discussing this so much is mad-making…
tru tru
Eva-la: hey, did you know that me and my movie was featured on The Smoke Lives? It was like the first thing on it a few days ago! Only I just learned that today, and it was on the very bottem of the page. Now, it’s on the second page. You can see it by clicking the little tiny # 2 at the very bottom of the screen on the website. But that was really cool!
Anyways, it’s real late, like almost 11 and there’s school tommorrow, so I need to go to bed, so see ya’ll.
wow, a lots been going on since i last wrote.
Cover: love it. I get the whole ionic thing. For those of you who don’t know, ionic bonds are between metalic and non-metalic compounds. Darklings don’t like metal, ‘midnighters’ bring metal blah blah blah. But its beautiful, awesome and gorgeous.
Smokelives site: awesome updates. Congratulations alex-wa :] i bet your series will be awesome!
Twilight: such a random topic for a UGLIES writers blog but since it was mentioned i will say something. Twilight haters, apparently you’re romance readers or mainstream haters, completely understandable. But for those of us who AREN’T don’t particularly disect a book. We merely appreciate the characters whom every girl wants to be and the guy every girl wants. Typically AMERICAN. Thats why its huge and why everyone loves it. And for those who dont like jacob, obviously you’ve never had a guy like that around you. When you do, you’ll understnd why he’s awesome. I have a friend EXACTLY like him and i love him :] edward on the other had only exists in dreams til the day you get married. Life changes.
Blaklava: haven’t tried it. Totally will. Sounds delish.
Everyone else: have a good night!!
last comment a bit long. Sorry. And if there are a lot of errors, remember TOUCH.
Awesome on book in Paris! I love Twilight too, but this is your day, Scott. Great series, can’t wait for the next book! No pressure, but excited for it when it comes out. Congrats!
Awesome cover!!!
i really dont feel like getting involved in the whole twilight thing going on.
~Aryll-wa
Wooooo! Snow Day!!!!!!!! Weeeeee! Yahoooo!! It’s like 6-8 inches here! Yes!!!!!! I’m so very happy!!
Is this weird? Eating ice cream in the cold, but drinking hot chocolate in the hot? Because when I get home from somewhere and I’m freezing, I get some ice cream….
And twilight again. I know what you mean lala-wa, but I’m neither I’m a lover of all books and like any type. And I don’t normally “dissect” a book. But for twilight, I dunno it just has something very dissectable about it. And I don’t know if you know this, but for most everyone, people dissect what their reading. Even if they don’t realize it. Weren’t yopu ever like, “OMG Bella just forget him! For once me with Mike, he’s seems like the only normal dude who likes you. Wait….why do so many people like you? Because you’re just someone new? But by the end you’re not…Hey I’m like you Bella and no one likes me…This books weird…”
Lol, I was kind of joking about some of that, but really.
I just don’t understand how SO many people can <3 Twilight SO much. It’s ridiculous.
Anyways…I asked my mom if I’ve tried Baklava, and she said, “Yeh, of course. Mhm.” Then I asked her if I liked itand she was like, “Yeh.” SO I asked where to get some and she was like, “Oh down by the pizzaria.”
Aha! I knew I’ve tried it before! Lol.
Lovely cover midnighters cover! Scott-la! Is this a good time to beg for the midnighters four that will NEVER ever EVER come? Heheh.
I haven’t been on here in a while because of some evil thing known as school work. Grr… I love math but sometimes my love goes unreturned. Oh why, quadratic equations? Why, my lovely logs?
So much has happened, I missed all of you here. Like I had my student leader’s investiture thingy today, so we had fun talking through a lungful of helium. (Because we took the balloons at the end of the event.) Someday we’ll try talking through sulfur hexafluoride if we ever get the chance.
Why are you guys even talking about Twilight anymore? I’m so over it. The fanshirt’s retired. HoN is good after you get through Marked. Anybody read Sunshine yet? She staked a vampire with a table knife! Yoohoo?
Just asking, has anyone here taken AMC 10A yet?
lol I’m writing this at school 😛 hey why does everybody here hate twilight? I don’t see what’s so bad about it ^^
ok gtg before my teacher sees this XD
to lala or w/e American??
that doesn’t make much sense
but it explains why the books are so bad
if eveeryone hadn’t noticed most good boks are from the UK
with scott as an exception
Trish-la: I just took AMC like a couple weeks ago. I don’t know what level it was, but it was really hard!!
bethany-la: thats my point. They all love it cuz they think thats how life should be. Typical girl whom everybody wanta but she goes for the out of this world supermodel. Basic american plot.
Trish-la: i heart math too :] it just proves im a math geek. Oh dear.
Kristen-la: sorry girl i always forget people dont think like me and i have to agree with thw whole great books are necessarily from the us. Maybe not all the uk. And scott-la is amazing ;] thats why i end up on here everyday stating my random opinion that doesnt really matter :]
Sorry people i know i talk way too much. And i know it doesnt really make semsr to you either. Sorry!
gr!! My spellings awful!! Im in math so doing this with the teacher knowing is a little hard…
Alex-wa: It seems like you have freedom at your school? Am I mislead? (we have cameras and teachers watching our every move. With good reason ’cause the kids here are bad children.)
Bethany-la: I hate snow. Officially, it’s only nice for a day and only is handy for school-missing. Yum! ice-cream!
.:.Peace.:. 😀
TypesetJez: Are you Italian?
Also, I think we should stop talking about T******* because no one’s opinons are going to be forced from them, and Scott-la’s books are what brought us together and we shouldn’t let Stephenie’s tear us apart.
School is unfool.
Peace.
Again
😀
jay-wa: your awesome! Sorry im so opinionated, i dont mean to be. Its my poly blood in me. I heart scott-la!!
Lol, well the only reason why I’m talking about Twilight is because someone started it, and I don’t really ever talk about it and my opinions so… yeh.
Jay-wa: Really? I love snow. And the fact I get to miss school. I was supposed to have an SOL today so…Yay! I got to miss that too. I love ice cream though. I’m probably addicted to it. I would eat it while rolling in the snow.
I totally agree with Jay-wa, everyone should just drop the Twilight subject. Some of you like it, some of you don’t, leave it at that. 😛
For anyone who’s read HTDYF, what kind of fairy do you think you have??? I managed to figure out what kind of fairies all my friends have (not that I really believe in fairies, it’s just fun to guess what kind everyone has), and I’m beginning to think I don’t have one. 🙁
Click my name. 😀
that’s a really pretty cover.
ok this is totally random but i don’t know Scott’s e-mail
but for thoes of you who are uglies fan i found a video on youtube that teaches you how to make hover shoes:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40S8G2ZuRpE&feature=channel
aw i havent read htdyf :[ wow i need to find it! Everyones sp slow here where i live. They all just got into scott-las books and they’re always out! I wish i knew about him earlier.
michelle i dont have his email either so you’re not alone. I tried your link and it wont let me watch it on this thing! Ugh! Someone tell me how it is please :[
dahlia-wa your blogs awesome! I just randomly clicked your name. Totally fawesome blogs. and i love howls moving castle and spirited away!! Totally random, i dont know what i clicked but i saw them in blue letters. Im rereading howls moving castle. I just love it!
Bethany-la i tried yours but i couldnt view it for some reason… Probably my touch. So not cool.
Lala-wa: Thanks! You probably just ended up on my profile (I never realized how many movies I liked until I started filling out the Movies section). I’m going to read Howl’s Moving Castle soon, but I need to finish Ninth Grade Slays, Specials, and Crocodile on the Sandbank before I start anything new. 🙂
Lala-wa – Lol, that’s because there’s really nothing there. I just like making my name blue. Makes me feel like I actually do something important. It really just says, “http://justfillingthisin”
dahlia-wa wow. Im in the middle of 3 series and i cant get any of the next books so im just rereading what i have. Hmc the book is way better than the movie, and i love the movie. Have you seen castle in the sky? Or princess mononoke? Or something like that.. Lol those are good too.
Bethany-la now i feel totally dumb. Lol can anyone tell im totally not a computer/internet person? Lol so maybe i am a little pretty-headed… If that makes sense? Jeeze i sound dumb. Dont mind me.
Lol, that’s okay. you aren’t dumb. Last year I used to have an actual link, but not anymore.
Michelle:does the hovor thing really work?!?!?!?!
Lala-wa:
http://www.youtube.com/watchv=40S8G2ZuRpE&feature=channel
will it work now?
oh ok. I couldnt figure out why peoples nanes were blue until alex-wa was saying something about a movie on her site and blah blah blah. So now i click on whoevers is blue :]
gr!!! Thanx eva-la but no it doesnt work :[ so bogus!!! Did you watch it?? Is it bubbly or bogus??
So beautiful.
Ok um I have been gone WAYYYY too long an official update on my life um here goes:
1. I have been forced to never ever talk to or be around my boyfriend because he will go to jail ( he’s 19 i’m 13 and people really don’t know when we are joking in an innapropriate manner)
2. I can not talk to any of my high school friends
3. My best friend hates me and called me a snobby b-word and says that since I’ve been hanging out with my other friends I want everyone to kiss my a-word and also says since i’ve been going out with my by-force-ex-almost-boyfriend i’ve been saying bad things about her and telling him her secrets(which btw i haven’t and i’ve never said a bad thing about her since the day i met her)
4. I can not talk to ANYONE more than 2 yrs. older than me
5. My cell has been taken for good (never ever getting it back)
6. Allllll the staff in our middle and high school know about me and my boyfriend (it was very akward the first day to say the least)
7. I have cried myself to sleep for almost a week.
And that is my life……..
Lala-wa: Yeah, I’ve seen Castle in the Sky and Princess Mononoke (that one was weird and kind of violent for a cartoon). I love Hiyao Miyazaki’s movies! They’re awesome! While we’re on the subject of anime, have you seen Steamboy? I thought it was good, though a little weird. The animation was great. 😀
Lol ya the mononoke one was a little creepy. I liked it though. And i must agree he’s totally awesome! I try to get all his movies, but i’m limited here in this boring state :[ i’ve never heard of steamboy, i’ll have to look for it though. We just watched one the other night. It was strange. I forgot what its called. Something about mu people with blue blood and a tokyo jupiter. Way wierd but interesting story. It starts with an r i think. Lol. Im not very helpful. Lol. I think extras would be a cool anime :]
Dang… I finnally read all of the comments I’ve missed! Okay:
Bethany-la: You are lucky you get snow days. Here in San Antonio, bad weather off days are sooo rare, that if we have one, we have to make it up. So no one here actually wants a bad weather day. Like 2 years ago, we had an ice storm, and got 2 days off, but we had to loose 2 days that were normally holidays. One of which was Battle of Flowers Parade day. That really sucked. What’s an SOL? Is is like the TAKS test?
Jay-wa: We don’t have that much freedom. There are cams and teachers everywhere! We’re in high school, so we natrally are givin a little bit more freedom. We choose our classes for next year, to an extent, anyways, and the Juniors and Seniors have an off campus lunch privaladge. Which can easily be revoked if they do something bad. And being in San Antonio, crime is immenent. We have police officers just for Northside ISD that patrol the hallways. Police. A lot worse that just teachers, right?
Eclipse: Wow. I hate to say this, but your life sucks. You’d better take a turn for the better! 13 and having a boyfriend is already a little early on my watch, but being 13 and having a boyfriend that’s 19?!?!?!?!? No. Just no. It’s WAY wrong. And WAY dangorous. Do you have ANY idea what he could do to you? Rape, at the LEAST. He could potentially KILL you. Be carful. And this is coming from the daughter of a retired Lt. Cournal. So I know stuff. These relatoinships nearly ALLWAYS go wrong.
I stopped that last comment because it was getting a little to long. Lol. I’m going to check up on my site stats now…
sorry, yeah, I’m sick of it too
just Scott-la mentioned a fansite of it, and that set me off
I have one thing to say about Twilight.
OM F ING G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM ABSOLUTLY SICK OF IT!!!!!!! I THINK THE BOOKS ARE GREAT, BUT THIS?!?!?!? OMG!!!! HOLY F ING SKATA!!!!!!!!!!! EVERYWHERE I F ING GO, TWILIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EVERY MAGAZINE I SEE, TWILIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOLY CRAP!!!!!! CAN WE JUST GET OVER THE F ING SERIES?!?!?!?!?!?!? HATERS, STOP F ING HATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TWILIGHT CULT MEMBERS, STOP WORSHIPPING IT SOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT’S JUST A F ING BOOK SERIES, FOR GOD’S SAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND IF THERE WAS SUCH THING AS A DOUBLE CAPS, I WOULD USE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry about that, guys. I just HAD to vent my anger, fustration, confusion… you know. I used to love the series completly, then I got over it. It is just a series, after all. It’s just REALLY getting all my nerves. I wish I could like shout that to the entire world. Jeez. I think I feel better now, though. Hehe. Lol. :-/
Alex-wa – Lol, Alex-wa. I agree about the Twilight thing. Yeh, an SOL is like a TAKS. Well, here snow days are kind of on and off. This was our second snow day, but lately they’ve been getting rarer *cough* global warming *cough*. Also, our School Board Director is cool, and gives us like the first day of snow off. Sadly, I have school tomorrow.
Sadly, I have a TAKS test tommorrow. Well, I actually am glad. It’s like a free day. I ROCK at English. Reading. Whatever! But yeah, no sweat. Easy! So I’ll have like 4 hours to sit there and read and do whatever other crap I can do, which is cool. So, I guess I’m actually GLAD we have a TAKS test tommorrow! Hehe.
And I belive in Global Warming, too. By far!! If any of ya’ll have been on my site in the past month, you’ll have heard of Earth Hour. I HIGHLY recomend you visit their site, http://www.earthhour.org. It’s kinda cool, and you can sign up and pledge you’re paticerpation in it! I did. Oh, I SOOOOO hope San Antonio will join! That would be like SOOOO freakin cool! We have a lot of light pollution here, so if San Antonio went dark, we’d actually be able to star gaze! And this person on my street like has a huge teloscope!!! That’d be just majorly bubbly if SA would join!
I have an SOL on Wednesday. And I’m wondering when we’re going to retake the SOL we were supposed to have today. Our tests are also English tests. Cool. Anyways, even though it’s only like 9:20, I’m going to attempt to go to bed. I haven’t getting much sleep lately, so….I need to catch up. Bye!
Ha. It’s 8:20 here. I need to catch up on my sleep, too. I don’t know what happened to me. On day I stayed up till 11, then like after that, I’ve stayed up till 11 on school days! And I used to try to be in bed by like 10! I don’t know what’s happened to me! Oh, no, I’m becoming a normal teenager!! NOOOO!!!!!!! Haha, Lol. I’m funny. You’d won’t get it if you haven’t read my old posts from the last blog… oh, never mind. I don’t like going to that subject, anyways. Not unless it’s with a friend or something… you’d understand if you were in my situation. Anyways… man! I have like nothing to do! No one’s emailed me, or commented on my site, or posted a new Uglies trailer on You Tube… there is like NOTHING to do on the Internet these days! Man! Ugh. I need to do make up work BADLY. I might FAIL if I don’t turn it in by Wensday. Ugh. Well, anyways. I’ll have time to do it tommorrow. Nah. LOL. I’m going to do other things. Anyways, boy, do I talk alot! I’m going to end this HUGE comment now!
oh alex-wa… Just when i think i’ve commented a lot, you show up and BAM i’m not even close…
Wow, that’s so simply elegant, but the colors are dark and mysterious enough to give it the “midnight” theme. I really like it:D
LOL, lala-wa! Ur funny! I need to go to bed now, because we have a TAKS test tommorrow, so good night ya’ll!
I have finally come up with a new story for 13 & Co.!!!!!!!! It’s about unicorns, because my last story was about zombies, and there’s that whole Zombies vs. Unicorns thing. To give the unicorns a slight chance of beating the zombies, I made them deadly and evil. Hehe, evil unicorns. 😆
So, click my name if you want to read part one of my unicorn story. 😀
SO what time is it where you all are???
Right now where I am its 8:39 PM
Anyone else?
It’s 11:03 PM where I’m at, Emi-la, and I’m going to bed. Got a TAKS test tommorrow! Good night.
Emi-la, its 10:11 where im at!!!
And yes alex-wa go sleep. I’ve told you not to do your homework before, don’t take that advice! Lol.
And dahlia-wa, evil unicorns??? Hm… I’ll have to read up on that one.
12:39 AM here
and your still on julie-wa? You go girl! If i could stay on til then, but no ones ever on that late for me…
Julie-wa, I could go in to how getting enough sleep is healthy and all that, but I won’t. I haven’t got the time to complain. I need to catch the bus, so I can be on time to my TAKS class. So see ya’ll! I probably won’t be online till I get back home.
Dahlia-wa – Ahhh! How dare you say unic***s!!!! Ahhh. Even write a story about them! Ahhhhh! Run away!!!!
WEE!!! Snow Day Again!!!!! YESSSS!!!!!! I’m very happy!
I would go to bed earlier, but I just can’t. I;’m sleepy all day long, then as soong as I’m thinking, “Hmm, I should go to sleep.” or if it’s like 9:00, I’m just WIDE awake and cannot go back to sleep. Hmm…maybe I’m secretly a vampire and I just don’t know that yet….
Arg, now I have an SOL tomorrow, and I haven’t seen my Language Arts teacher since Friday! I wonder if we actually have to take it tomorrow, or if these snow days have bumped everything back….
Bethany-la: Unicorns, unicorns, UNICORNS!!! Mwhahahaha!!!!
Hehe, sorry about that, I couldn’t resist. 🙂 So, what’s wrong with unicorns (other than all previous interpretations of them)???
…Justine would be very angry with you….
*starts to ignore Dahlia-wa because of her sudden uni**** rampage*
Alex-wa: Wow that was quite a rant but I completely agree
hmm what in the crap is TAKS and SOL
In other news I am officialy obsessed with vampires now I read only vampire books and watch only vampire movies * Against the Darkness was awsome* and I ave started to have vampire dreams so if you have any suggestions I have read the Vampire Kisses series obviously I’ve read the Twilight Saga I’ve read Marked but not Betrayed ummm lets see I’m starting Vampire Academy and thats all….
ok i dont get the whole unic*** thing? Whats so bad bethany-wa?
Eclipse (Mrs. Emmett Cullen Jacob Black): I haven’t read many vampire books, but the ones I have read were really good. Like In the Forest of the Night by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, and the Vladimir Tod books by Heather Brewer (Im almost done with Ninth Grade Slays, and it’s sooo good). I’m going to read Demon in My View by AAR soon. Hm, I really haven’t read that many vampire books. There were vampires in Darkside by Tom Becker, and that was pretty good. 🙂
TAKS:
Texas
Assessment of
Knowladge and
Skills.
TAKS. Ya know. The big test thing you have to take every year? Every state has a different name for them. TAKS is for Texas, SOL is for… IDK. Lol. MEEP is for like Michigan… Ya know. Yours is called something different, I’m sure.
GUYS, IF YOU WANT TO READ 2 AMAZING VAMPIRE SERIES, READ “THE VAMPIRE DIARIES” AND ” THE HOUSE OF NIGHT”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol. Go to Justine’s blog and go to the Unicorns category. You’ll figure it out.
Eclipse – a TAKS is a big Texan test, and an SOL is a big Virginian test. Do you have tests that the whole state participates in and that’s taken seriously and blah blah blah? If so, that’s basically what we-re talking about.
oh in califonia we have STAR tests
Alex-wa:ALSO VAMPIRE ACADEMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
STAR… interesting. I wonder what it could stand for. Hm… oh, and what does SOL stand for, too? We had our Reading TAKS today, btw. I think I did nearly 100%. I always get commended on those…
Hi! I was reading all the posts than got bored and skipped to the bottom. lol. =D
Any way…. I have read twilight and loved it, but than I picked up other vampire stuff and realised [sorry I spelled that wrong] that it wasn’t really worth the hype. (Oh and Scott-la, Twilight can’t touch your books, just FYI). The house of Night series is incredible! As are a few other random vamp books, my fav being Jessica’s Guide To Dating On The Dark Side. So romantic!
Anyway, since I read The Vampire Lestat [by Anne Rice] and its sequel (which has a not-nice word in the title so I won’t say it by name) I realised [misspelled, I know] that Edward wasn’t the first mind reading vampire (I had given Stephenie Meyer lots of credit for the idea) and his looks sound suspiciously like the character Armand. Oh well…
Oh- to make this relevant- I absoulutly LOVE the Italian cover. =]
Yeah. Twilight really isn’t all that special. For example on your mind reading thing. In The Vampire Diaries, like all vamps have Power to control human minds. It’s the only way they can get to them to feed. They manipulate the victem and put them in a trance when like they don’t do anything unless they are told, like just sit there. And then I think they put happy thoughts in afterwords? So they don’t really remember well, or care much, I think… yeah, and that series is like from the 80s. So yeah. Edward is nothing special. And the Powers in The Vampire Diaries vary, too. To an extent, anyways. So again, yeah.
Alex-wa: I know I need more sleep, haha
but I can never fall asleep easily
it’s like a curse…. or maybe just a sleeping disorder
SOL stands for Standards Of Learning I think…didn’t I already go through this?…Hmm…
Also, right now I’m reading a vampire book that came out in the 90’s, and the vampire can read minds and make the person do something/ calm him down and is strong. And yeh. Edward really is nothing compared to many many other books.
Hey Scott-la, maybe you should make some more vampire books. They don’t have to be romantic. Actually I would love it if it wasn’t romantic. Seems like vampires are mighty popular right now.
You know, I’m kind of upset that so many people are into vampires anymore. Again very territorial. I loved vampires for a long time, and then suddenly, boom, everyone loves vampires. Not fair.
Aha! I knew we already went through this. Look at comments 66 and 68.
Holas. I don’t have time I don’t think to read all the comments so yeah…But happy March 3rd peoples. What’s up?
Not. Much. We’re just talking about nonsense *cough*Twilight, tests *cough. And books.
Ooooh, so the usual? Lol. I’m soooo bored.
Aha! I knew I’d read (most of) another vampire book! I totally forgot about Dangerous Girls by R.L. Stine. *smacks head for forgetting one of only three vampire books I own*
I haven’t finished it yet, and it’s been ages since I read any of it, but I’m pretty sure the vampire in DG could read/control minds too (I forgot his name, but I’m pretty sure it was stupid). 🙂
I LOVE THE COVER!!!!
Dahlia-wa- I almost started to read that series, and then I realized I had checked out the 2nd book instead of the 1st book. So…didn’t happen.
Does anyone twitter. I just started like 30 minutes ago. It’s strangely enjoyable. Weird.
It’s now in my blue name. Woot. I have something!
What does WWTBD stand for?
What would the Budah do? Ha ha should I feel stupid and unknowing for asking this question?
Reagan- I dunno. I looked at Google and there were many different things. Is there a specific context of it?
Boo!! Did i scare anyone?
hm… Vampire books and tests is whats the dealio… I thought it was a scortched topic? Guess i was wrong yet right. Its everywher!!! Run people!!!
Lala-wa : Ahhh! Omg! You scared the bejeebers out of me!
We need to talk about something new…..CHEESE!
Yes! I knew i’d scare someone:]
lol i like cheese…
i looked up wwtbd cuz i thought it was whats with the something and i think i was wrong. Google gave me some weird things so i’d stick with what you had :] lol
Lol. Okay. Cheese is yummy. I don’t like Bri though. It’s yucky for me. Well, I must go. I need to take a shower and fall asleep by ten (according to me), but I doubt that would happen.
lol good luck with that!!! I’ll still be on here like usual… Like i always am.
Oh and i love brie!!! On bread with some jam :]
And i just read on the extrs day page that someone read the books online. I think… Maybe i read wrong cuz i usually do. Stupid dyslexia!! Gr!!!!
whys everyone talking about cheeese??
Well, they’re talking about cheese because they don’t want to talk about vamp books and tests. Lol. Cheese? Let’s think of something else… I think I suck at starting new topics, though. But hey! Get this! A NEW VIDEO FOR HUNTED HAS BEEN RELEASED!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT’S FOR ZOEY!!!!!!!! CHECK IT OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Whats up with the cheese convo you guys got goin on here??
well i think the cover is nice, maybe a little monochromatic but very pretty. you could write a book that had a piece of crap on the cover but if it had your name on it i’d read it lol
you said it karley-wa!!!!!
And the cheese was a distraction from cough*twlight/vampires/tests*cough!! So ya. Completely random, totally necessary.
Lol. I’m sad I have school today. I was hoping for a 2 hour delay. =(
I ended up falling asleep after ten. I’m bad at this got to sleep at a certain time thing…
Mmmm cheese. In 6th grade, I would draw pictures of winged cheese. It looked awesome.
Alex-wa: Where can I see the video?
Really someone likes brie? I dunno why, but I really dislike it. I love cheese, just not brie. I guess it’s a hate or love kind of taste..
Can we talk about chocolate/ cake/ brownie instead of cheese I love cheese though). I celebrated two people’s birthday in school. For one, a friend ordered a cake to share. For the other, who is my best friend, me and some of my other best friends made brownies and choc cookies for her, and they were so diabetic. And she got a gimassive teddy bear, a cd, earrings made by a freind, two deck of cards (double blanks and black ghost)
I noticed that some were you were talking about your sleeping time. I’m fifteen this year and I happen to have been sleeping at around 12 – 1 for the past 3 months. Then I wake up at like 6.30 to go to school.
Eclipse: Just read your post. That’s seriously sad. *Places free hugs here for anyone who needs/wants them*
This Sunday is my mom’s birthday. I don’t know what to give her for a present. It’s her big five oh.
Trish-la- Oh my god, I could not do that. I run on like an 8-9 hour sleep system. Which I never get, so I never run too well…
On the topic of sleep, I never fall asleep until 1:30-2:00 am. Let’s just say I’m never very happy in the morning (unless it’s Christmas or something). 😛
speaking of sleep…i go to sleep around 10 or 11 and wake up at 5:30… i’m really not all that tired when i wake up though…
I go to bed between 10-11 and I wake up at 6, and I”m sooo tired.
yea im kinda tired in the morning but it usually catches up with me when i get home from school
lol sleep is the topic now? Interesting. I’m always asleep. Lol. I only have one class, its at 1, so i’m asleep pretty much all day. I feel super old compared to you gals… Jeeze.
OMG! Ok, say you had a boyfriend who’s birthday was tomorrow, but you TOTALLY forgot, you’re completely broke til friday and you STILL dont have a gift! What do you do? Lol. Hypothetically…
lala-wa: i have no expeience w/boys or broke, so idk what to tell you
on the topic of sleeping, as strange as it may be, i go to sleep around 9:30- 11:00 time range and wake up at 6:15. i m never really tired =D
lol just a random question since there was that small conversation of birthday! Lol
But with sleep, i wonder if any of the midnighters ever thought of using the blue time for extra sleep? Lol
i didn’t try it but i wanted to try it. did any of u guys try it yet?
Lala-wa: Umm….I would ask my mom for money and say it’s for something really important. Or I guess I could make something…..
Ashley-wa: Lol, I also have no experiences with boys. And I’ve never been totally broke. I always end up finding dollars here and there in my house so…yeh.
I always need sleep. Except, I only need it during the day. During the night, I feel as awake as the vampires in the House of Night series do.
Michelle: Try what??
Yay! I got the 200th comment!
i put a link up ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40S8G2ZuRpE&feature=channel ) it’s a video on how to make hover shoes. people were asking if i made them yet.
lala-wa: to answer your question i would just find something in the house that i didnt want or make something… even just a card would better help the cause… also how old are you even if you have only one class…in college or are you just making that up?
michelle: im pretty sure that those hover shoes are fake because he makes it seem like theyll work but when hes “floating” i think hes dangling from something… i may be wrong but who knows
I think those hover shoes would work. There’s 4, 50 lb lift magnets on the shoes, which means it should be able to lift 200 lbs. Also, he made them electro-magnets, so putting them above nails would show Newtons 3rd law (action-reaction). Also, have you ever seen one of those things where there’s a magnet on top and one on bottom, and there’s a globe thing floating in between them? When you first put that (the globe) on it twirls. And think about it, the spot that you’re hovering at wouldn’t be exactly in the right spot (which means that the force of the magnets would be unbalanced) which would make one spin.
Lol, I’m learning physics right now. =P
I could be wrong, but I do think that would work.
Michelle: Oh yeh, I looked at that link when you posted it, it’s just you randomly was like did anyone try it! Uh…try what? Sleeping? Lol.
but idk so dont take my word… it is pretty cool
lol sorry. i was answering questions that people asked yesterday or a 2 days ago. this is my first time blogging so i really have no idea what im doing. loll
have u made them?
(hover shoes)
lol.
I don’t like that so many people on youtube always assue somethings fake, so they try to find a reason of why it could be fake. It just seems with everything that looks a little in believable everyone on youtube goes bonkers.
Hey Michelle, you got the 208th post! That’s 13 x 16! Wooo!
No I haven’t make them. For one thing, I don’t have a soldering thingamabob, and sencondly, my mom would never let me.
no i didn’t make them. idk if they are fake or not, i just put it up cause i watched the video and it reminded me of uglies
yeah i wouldda tooo
anyone like metic droid?????
or brokencyde?
kay-ls: yes i only have one class AT school, my other ones are online. Lol.
Thanks for the advice everyone, just a random question but i hot it all under control. :]
Bethany-la: i LOVE physics. It’s like scientific math and i LOVE math. Lol random, i know.
Eva-la: i have no idea what that is.
And technically with all this hover shoe things, scott-la’s explained some of it in bogus to bubbly. It’s completely complicated unless you have a huge magnetic field to actually ‘hover’. So then you’re left with a rocket type thing, which i’m pretty sure not many people know how to make that.
Random here, but has anybody read anything by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes?
hover shoes would be awesome! to bad i suck at making anything really, so if i tried i would probably end up killing myself or getting badly injured
T&Z: honestly i have never even heard of that book, sorry =D
gosh, i m no help 2day
That’s not the book, that’s the author! She got published when she was like 15. I read one of her books today, and I really liked it. I’m going to get the second one in the series tomorrroooowwwwww.
OMG. OMG, OMG. If anyone was planning on getting Nightfall, the recent 3rd book in The Vampire Diaries… OMG. Be prepared. Be afraid. Be very afraid. This is a horror series, so I learned not to read it in bed, but THIS??? It’s just completly, utterly, frightningly, FREAKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FREAKY, I TELL YA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This author is like EVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Or something! Demon people? Freaky demonic demon minions that are completly FREAKY looking, and like posses people, even Damon, like one of the most powerful vamps?!?!?!? This is a little TOOOOOOOOOOO much!!!! It’s FREAKING ME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I might not even finish reading, it’s soooo scary… well, I dought that will happen… LOL.Seriously, folks. This is a horror movie unlike I’ve ever heard of. HORROR!!!! BLOODY HORROR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, how I hope to God that I won’t get any nightmeres. Because if I do, they’ll consist of demonic beings, vampires sucking me dry, giant carnivorous insect demon creatures with tentacels trying to EAT me and POSSES me… I would wake up screaming at the top of my lungs and NEVER go to sleep again for the rest of my whole freaking LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ha, wows! I didn’t think the first books were very scary, but now I have to get the 3rd! I LOVE scary things. I’m totally obsessed! I’m going to borders tomorrow, hope they have it!
And yet, I MUST keep on reading. Even though I’m at one of the most freaky parts so far. And I’m only half way through the book! Jeez!!!! Oh, and whoever asked, you can see the House of Night vid at the series website, http://www.houseofnightseries.com.
T&Z: I’ve only read In the Forest of the Night, and it was reeeeaaaalllly good!!! 😀 Which one did you read??? And I thought AAR got published when she was 13…
I can’t wait to read Demon in My View!!! But I have a few books I need to finish first. 🙁
T&Z: I have all but her latest book. And if you get inot the shape-shifting series (can’t remember the name) the first two are good, but the last three are weird beyond all reason.
Alex-wa: Nightfall is technically the fifth book, but the first in a new trilogy. AND (please) DON’T GIVE AWAY EVERYTHING! SOME OF US STILL WANT TO READ IT, YOU KNOW!!! 🙂
WOW I guess that I missed some stuff about sleep and cheese? lol and some books
Sorry, Dame Orchid. I just had to get it out of my system, you know? Again, sorry. I hate it when someone gives it away for me, so ya. Hehe. Had to get it out. I didn’t give away the crucial details, though… well, hm… oh, anyways. Ya. *sigh*. Nothin to do. Again, except makeup work. For spanish. Boooooooriiing.
Dahlia-wa, I thought so too,but on her website in the q&a it said 15. I read the first kiesha’ra book. That’s the shapeshifting series. I hope I spelled that right. And yeah, that’s the series I’m starting on. Weird beyond all reason? Can’t wait! Lol.
hm….. never heard of those books. Anyways You know I can’ t stand: overobsessive people (obviously I could possibly fall under that category in some places[such as SUPERMAN] Ha ha I would hate myself…
11:30 PM. Yeah. Good Night! And I don’t think I have to say it in 4 languages again… LOL…
shapeshifting series? sounds intriguing…weird beyond all reason? fun.
i once had a dream where johnathan was a shapeshifter instead of an acrobat…
The only thing about Westerblog that annoys me is the Infreqency of posting. It’s not anyone’ fault, but right now I’m laid up in bed with the Teenage Plague, and I really need some bloggy goodness…coughcough
Holly-wa: Well, Scott-la would probably post more if he wasn’t so busy. He is in the process of a book you know
…And yet Justine has time….
lala-wa: you are sooooo lucky!!! lol im jealous
everyone else: so who published their first book at 13/15??? im lost…
Gravy, look at all the comments. Beautiful cover! I need to show my sis cuz she’s a Midnighters’ fan. I love the rose, and the book should already be out now in Italy! 🙂
to everyone wayyyy back at the top… i also dont like twilight… i know what you guys are saying… also to alex-wa i know what baklava is because my friend is greek and she would take me to this greek festival…baklava is okay but i like kooda likeas… is that how you spell it???… also a good vampire book is vampire high… i really enjoyed that book when i read it… does anyone have any good book suggestions??
Kay-la, it was Amelia Atwater-Rhodes who published her first book then.
House of Night and The Vampire Diaries!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They ROCK THIS WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAAAAAY BETTER THAN TWILIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What’s kooda likeas? Hm… if I heard the word, I’d probably recogninze it. Well, I prefer Loukoumades. And I’m Greek, too. I dance at the local Greek Festival, or FUNstival, as we call it. It’s run as usual by the local Greek Orthodox Church, St. Sophia’s. It’s REAL fun! The dancing, I mean. We all look forward to it! Oh, how I LOVE Greek dancing… well, at the FUNstival, anyways. I don’t like to dance anywhere else. Lol.
before u guys were talking about weird names for state tests but i have one that takes the cake: NECAP, thats right NECAP testing, it stands for New England Common Assesments Program
(wow this is random)
Wow… NECAP is an interesting name… hehe. Hey guys, I might be updating my site, so check it out soon! No, the update isn’t involving any new-released clips, but it is important! So check it out! Soon!
T&Z: thanks
Alex-wa: i will be sure to read the house of night books im sure they’ll be awesome judging by your comments on them… also maybe the food was loukomades i havent been to the festival in like atleast four years because im not friends with the girl anymore… kooda likeas/ loukomades who cares? they were ahmazing!!!
oh and i will try to read vampire diaries too
Westerfeld-senei: FreeTranslation.com translates the title as “When it strikes the mezzonotte the worse nightmares advance in the darkness.” I’m going to go ahead and assume that ‘mezzonotte’ means ‘midnight.’ So when you look at that and the Google translation, you have a pretty good idea of what it means. I like it, it’s a cool tagline.
(Online translators suck.)
My site is updated!
This is totally random, but I have no idea what kind of chibi I should do for my 100th post. Any ideas??? I’m totally stuck. 🙁 I haven’t done a chibi since Christmas, so I definitely have to have one for the 100th post. Help? 🙂
Okay, my site is REALLY updated, now! Hehe. So NOW you may visit my site. Yep.
Courtney this is true that online translators suck. Its word for word and usually doesnt use proper grammar. But who am i to judge an italian translator? Lol i speak a totally different language.
Dahlia-wa i have no idea what a chibi is, so i dunno how to help you… Sorry.
Alex-wa im from hawaii so were always throwin luaus all the time. I used to dance in a small group for school but not no more, and i will totally check out your website!!
Dahlia-wa: Like Lala-wa, I don’t know what a chibi is…sorry
Alew-wa: I got Untamed from the library yesterday. I’m in the beginning middle right now. So far so good. Lol.
Noo! I have a French, Science, and Math test/quiz today! Nooo!
Bethany- la, Ooh, wait till you get near the second half!! That’s when things REALLY start to get exciting!!!!
Lala-wa: Are you Hawaiien? I just love Hawaii. I got a chance to visit Oahu for a week because my mom was deployed to Korea, and she had a TDY there, so we went there for a mini vacation and to visit her. It was awsome! And it like smells like flowers! Really! It’s in the air! It’s just amazing.
I should probably get ready for school now, so bye! And yes, check out my website, folks!
OOOH I am in love with the House of Night series but I don’t have money to buy Betrayed and none of my friends have it and right now I am so mad because my stupid friend tells me some of what happens in Chosen like with Stevie Rae’s Mark and her ***SPOILER***
dying my friend totally sucks cause she ruined breaking dawn too ugh
***END SPOILER***
Eva-la::: I am going to check out Vampire Academy on monday since i’m skipping school today and last time i had a late fee and they wouldn’t let me
Alex-wa::: Hiiiiiiiiii ok i think i’m done
OH YES!!!!!!!
Jay-wa – I don’t know if you’ve been on lately but I am posting chapter 2 of Cake today I hope if i can stay focused
and to add to my sad story i have dreampt about him for six nights in a row alllll night
Lala-wa and Bethany-la: Have you ever watched a cartoon where the characters turned into small, slightly pudgy versions of themselves to show super exagerated emotion??? If so, that’s a chibi. Here’s a link to the chibi wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chibi_(Japanese_term)
And here’s a link to a post I did with three chibis (only two of them are mine, the other was drawn by a friend): http://dahliaseclecticmind.blogspot.com/2008/10/more-chibbies-and-theyre-wearing.html
😀
I’m at school, so my name isn’t hyperlinked *cough, Eclipse*. Yeah, my school *cough again to Eclipse* library like only has Betrayed, though I don’t care because I’m waiting for Hunted right now. I’m not going to spoil anything, though. And why are you skipping school, Eclipse? It’s wrong. Way. Not cool, by my standerds. If you do it to be “cool”, tell the people that told you you have to skip to be cool that they are the not cool ones who are going to go nowhere with their life and are going to live on the streets because they can’t get a good job because they didn’t go to collage because no collage would except them because their grades are crap. C’mon, now! You need to fix your life. You know, I had a bad time in my life, when I first moved here. I was like depressed, and quit doing my homwork, and I would cry every night because I missed my friends, and we couldn’t find a house, and my parents were arguing about the fact that we couldn’t find a home. Then I was like Hey, you need to straighten up, girl. When we FINNALLY were going to make an offer. I started praying each night, and started a diary so I could have some way to express my feelings, so I didn’t feel so alone. And it’s really had a profound effect on me! And that just about sums up my speech on life. So don’t call me a preacher or whatever other crap. I’m just trying to help you. That’s what every one should do; help eachother. So yeah.
And again, my site has been updated with a new page, so check it out! I’m a’heading to Yahoo!Answers now for the last few minutes of this period, so see ya’ll!
Ugh, I tried posting a comment (about chibis) a few minutes ago, but it didn’t publish. It’s done this to me before. Every time I take too long to type up my comment, it doesn’t show up for a few hours. Does that happen to anyone else???
Click my name!!! I just found a site that teaches you how to add another sidebar to your blog!!! I’m so happy!!! 😀
If anyone wants to put another sidebar on their blog, just visit this link: http://www.thecutestblogontheblock.com/blog-secrets/145-how-to-get-a-3-column-template

ol yes alex-wa im sort of hawaiian. Im actually tongan but most people dont even know what that is so tongan is close enough. And ditching IS healthy once in a while. Especially when you get to my age. Wow i soundd old. And dont bother eclipse either. I was like that, lessoned learned, dont date older guys unless you’re really ready for a relationship.
Eclipse, take a chill pill. Hes not the last man on earth, dont stress to much over him. Instead dreaming about him, dream up a way to get on your parents good side. Trust me. It’ll make time fly, you’ll probably be able to see him sooner (not that i approve because i totally dont but its your life your feelings your choice) and you wont be so depressed and paranoid. Do not ask me how i know this, i just do.
Dahlia-wa will you please explain to me whata chibi is? Or whatever you were talking about.
Bethany-la its probably too late to wish you good luck but i hope you did well.
sorry eclipse if that seemed a little harsh or long, im just trying to help. I know what it can be like and it sucks :[
and ditching is healthy!!! Just dont make it a habbit and make sure its on the right days, not random days. Unless you’re the type that needs to be in class to learn. Then youre the exception. (thank you chick from hes just not that into you).
Lala-wa: Here’s a link to some chibis I drew: http://dahliaseclecticmind.blogspot.com/2008/10/more-chibbies-and-theyre-wearing.html
The second fairy chibi was drawn by one of my friends, but the first fairy and the vampire are mine. And if the pictures aren’t enoguh of an explanation, chibis are an anime technique used to express super exagerated emotion. (I tried explaining this earlier, but I guess I took too long and the comment hasn’t shown up yet.) 🙂
oh! Ok. Thanks dahlia-wa. Totally makes sense. I like the vampire one :]
is that like another book he wrote or what? Or is it only for Italy?
Hehe. A’headin. Haha. I like that word. I like came up with it as I was typing on my last comment… I was all like Ooh, I’m a’headin to Yahoo!Answers!! Hehe. I’m becomin a texan!!! Ye’haw!! Let’s rodeo, San Antonio!!!!!
Haahaa. A texan momment in the life of Yasemin Alexandra Dinibutun. Lol.
Yes, that’s my real name. No idea why I said it here, but whatever. *shrugs* Lol
IT’S SPRING BREAK PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!! YE’HAW!!!!!!!!!!! Lol Like I just remembered!! Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!
Awwww no fair. I want it to be spring break. Jeeze. I gotta wait a week. Or two. I think. Lol.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!! They might actually make a Vampire Diaries movie!!!!!!!!! That would be sooo awsome!!! As long as they don’t ruin it, of course.
im going to have to start this vampire series… Everybodys talking about them…
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!! You NEED to read these series!!! They ROCK THIS WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you know wat book is really good… “in my hands”…. its a true story and it sounds soooooo boring because we had to read it for school but once you get into it, its uhmazing…. everyone in our cluster loves it and that is really saying something… so if youre looking for something to read you should definitely pick up in my hands
Hey guys imm back. huray! but ya alex-wa vampire diaries is super awesome i just need the third book! i heard its gona be made into a tv series. cant wait
Man, I cannot get my mind off of Nightfall! I finished it today during 2nd period. It was just so AMAZING that I can’t stop thinking of it!
I finished Untamed yesterday. I started it Thursday evening, and finished it Friday night. Lol. That’s not fair! They leave us hanging soo bad! And I’m like 17th in waiting list for the next one, and it hasn’t even come out yet. And I don’t like buying books, because I like my money. Lol.
It’s cool looking and all, but the title and cover photo just make it seam too much like a romance novel to me. Which could be good because some romance-novel person may pick it up by accident and love it, but could work the opposite way by having some sci-fi addicts keep their distance.
Anyway, a truely amazing book is Crank by Ellen Hopkins. Just read it. May have taken me longer, but what started out as wanting to try a page or two (it was recomended and lent by a friend) ended up with me 400 or so pages in. The verse format seems weird at first, but you get really into it, and it’s SOOOO addicting! The only part I kind of don’t like was the ending. It seemed a bit rushed to me, but otherwise the whole book was phenominal.
Somehow i think that the tagline says something else… haha. 😉
And that’s a very pretty rose. :]
Wow… fans who like Mr. Westerfeld AND Twilight? What a shocker..
Oh well. I’m one of them.
for the translation, this is what i got:
“when midnight strikes, the worst nightmares advance in the darkness”
idk, makes sense to me
That’s a very pretty cover~! Except it took me moments to realise what series it was for… It looks like it would be the cover of a Victorian romance novel, rather than the cover of an amazing series about misfit teens who take on the powers of darkness.
Midnighters = <3
I won’t have read it cause the cover is blah. Probly the only reason I picked up Midnighters was because of the awesome cover art. (I had the first edition cover)
;P
i love house of night! go zoey!
well um i never rlly read that rose book or whatever which i rlly want to read by the way cuz i like love all scotts books midnighters uglies rlly good im actually reading the guide to uglies write now which is how i came across this website i was just wondering how did you 1st get the idea to write the uglies series it’s so futuristic and bubbly no would could have wrotten a better book about uglies pretties specials and extras but you so where did ur inspiration come from and the idea to make a guide to the uglies world your so amazing scott-wa and dnt forget so bubbly!
