I would die internally out of happiness XD
Mod
In one of our other groups, the author just spies onus, because when I went to meet her she told us so! ha ha
But I'm happy with her writing books instead of being here on goodreads with us distracting her! :O
Wait, she actually reads this forum (or chat or whatever this is called haha)?!?!
Mod
Cool! I wish Maggie did that here! Or maybe she does... :o
Mod
just casually check in on goodreads groups for theories....
well the chat thread as 37 different viewers so it's not a total impossibility...especially since I haven't checked views for Blue Lily, Lily Blue and The Dream Thieves yet.
MAGGIE IF YOURE HERE GIVE US A SIGN lol XD
Mod
I love it how Maggie replies to fans on twitter. I've been replied to so many times :D

I wonder if Maggie Stiefvater is German (or half-German or so), her last name sounds German.
And before her first name was Maggie, it was Heidi, isn't it?

YES OMG HER NAME WAS HEIDI!!!!
I think. Wikipedia is kinda reliable in some cases don't ya think...? :)
she didn't think Heidi fitted her.She was right, Maggie's better!
Yes, I also like Maggie better
Mod
okay, referring to your well statements in the other thread that we moved from. :D
we have thirteen years of school, although we do have kindergarten or preschool before school as well.
Prep, then grades 1-6, that's primary school.
Then year 7-12 is high school.
:D
none of this middle school business or going to three schools in your life, then after is university or work or whatever you want to do like overseas I imagine. :D
ha ha, and yeah, I have a lot of book boyfriends. :D
Aahhh that sounds amazing, so you go to school with the same girls till University??And you've said something about houses, is it like in Harry Potter?
When I was 2 years old I went to something like pre-kindergarden,
On my fourth birthday I when to basisschool for 8 years and now I'm in the fifth of six years highschool. The lowest niveau has only 4 years of highschool and the HAVO has 5. I have the longest highschoolperiod of 6 years. Only the highest niveaus can go to university, the other once have different educations after highschool.
I'll hopefully attend university and study abroad for half a year, hopefully in South East Asia, New Zeland, Australia or The ABC islands (=
There are a lot of traveloptions in my school. Im currently baking frikandellen to sell them during lunchbreak, to earn money for a trip to Iceland (=
Mod
and yes, we have houses like in Harry Potter, although not called Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, Slytherin and Hufflepuff obviously. :D
and yeah, I'm at an all girl's school, but there are mixed schools and all boys schools too.
yep, so I think that your basic school is kind of like our Primary school and I am also in my fifth year of High school out of 6. :D
oooh what are frikadellen? Are they sweet or savoury? (You live in the Netherlands don't you?)
Ahhh how are you divided between the houses?Frikandellen are penis-like sausages. We put them on big white breads and sell them (=
Yesss I am proud too be dutch (= ridiculous maybe since I want to move to a warmer country but i can't help loving my country too much (=
You live in a warm country, right? How is it to not worry to go outside whenever the sun pops up? Really, if i'm inside and the sun starts to shine, I always feel reaaaally guilty for being inside )=
Mod
I am in Blue House. :D
ha ha, ooh they sound nice though! :D
I AM ALSO DUTCH!!!!! (My Grandma is dutch) AND I JUST WENT TO THE NETHERLANDS!!! :D It was quite cold, although about the same temperature that we have in our winter. and I actually looove The Netherlands so much! So many nice fields and learnt about the history (and like, Delft and Japanese trading there inthe 1600s) and went to Amsterdam and Den Haag and just drove around the country. Actually there was a town that was so cold just over one of the Dykes (I can't remember which one!) and we were freezing! It was colder there than up in some of the mountains in Switzerland!
and yes, our summers are so hot! Sometimes we just can't sleep it's so hot and there are mosquitos and crickets sing all night and you end up eating nothing but icy poles and ice cream!
yes, vitamin D time everyone! sunshine for us!
Mod
Doooohhh Sara, you don't have to explain about your school because I learn about in mine (=And Renée, how were you divided between the houses??? Have you also been to the East of the country? That's where I live. It's quieter, everytime I go to the West, which is a lot since my father's from there, I get annoyed from all the pressure there. Life's more relaxed around here, the people are less fake. Although that last thing might have to do with the accent. Their accent makes them sound a little bit fake to me.
I still love the West, with the seaaa and dyyyykes and AMSTERDAM!! Amsterdam is some English bookstores, places where I could spend my life!!
What did you think of the language??
I can't deny it, Lani
Mod
AND YES OMG I LOVED AMSTERDAM! Went ice skating near the Rijke smuseum near one of the I AMsterdam signs. :D
I love the language and all the people! So many nice people, especially shop keepers, they all are really nice and love to chat and I also didn't feel so strange because everyone there was tall like me for once! I felt like I was at home, my dutch blood probably coming through there. :D I can only say a few things in Dutch unfortunately, mostly foods and thank you. (dankuvel!) And Nay and Da. :D ha ha
so simple things. :D
ahhh awesome, I want houses at my school!!!I am currently enjoying my breakfast with bread and hagelslag, bet you tried that? I can't believe people can live without it hahaha
aah I know where, I think I've been more in Amsterdam this year than in the rest of my life and I've been to that spot! Was the grass put flooded with water and then turned to ice to skate on?
yes, people are tall, there are exceptions, me for example. My friends just keep calling me "dwerg", which means dwarf, thanks friends!!
dutch does a lot of words in common with English, we just write and pronounce it really different. like "dankuwel" you say thank you. It is kinda alike because we often leave the "wel" and say "dank u" of "dank je"
oooo Australia! I'd love to go there. I've read a couple of books about it and wanted to visit Australia ever since. unfortunately my mom refuses to fly, so the furhtest east I've ever been is Italy too, the furtherst west is probably France. I'm a traveller in my heart but it's never come out (=
Mod
I may have had that...and just not known what it was?
yes, I'm pretty sure they did flood the grass area. :D And it was at night and they put all pretty lights on and it was just a dream! XD
ha ha, awww. Well, I'm always told, direct quote: "Stop being so tall Renee!"
and I'm like :O I can't help it!
so yeah. Netherlands was good for me. :D I felt normal.
oh yes, it does. :D And a lot of 'j's get turned to y sounds and then there's the coughy sounding letters, which kinda comes natural to me as well, must be in my blood. :D
ha ha, it's very multi-cultural here...and random weather!! and so any different types of food and we have barbeques and stuff and everything is new compared to Europe. Aka the Sydney Opera House just turned an astounding 40 years old! *rolls eyes sarcastically* yeah congrats Australia.
ha ha
Yes, France was lovely. :D The furthest west I've been was England, but NOW I REALLY REALLY WANT TO GO TO WALES!!!
Hahaha you know, those chocolat sprinkles on your bread? Best invention in the food world like EVER!!!I am currently enjoying sunny weather, it's 21 degrees and everyone is outside in shorts and the icesalons are earning tons today hahaha
I am currently laying in the meadow behind my house. The farmer has mawn his grass so that it can dry in the sun and oooo the smell of drying grass!!!!
I've seen films of Australia and it occurs to me as America without flaws. The fact that everything is new can be positive since a lot of old things have become ugly through time. My house is very old en although not ugly, time has tried to take it down. My street was one of the few streets in my village that already existed in World War 2, and the germans fought here against the canadians trying to liberate my town. My house has some bulletstains in the front and the house of my neighbours has been hit by a grenade, so that a lot of the sand-colored stone was smashed out. It's replaced by red stones and looks funny.
Hahahaha I haven't ice-skated in a long time although I skeeler regulary to get a tan (=
How tall are you? I think we should switch, you living among other tall people and me living among other dwarves (=

Mod
love them! XD
omg that is adorable! YOu call them ice salons? :D awesome!!!!! ha ha, hear our boring name for them: Ice cream shops.
literally. we are so un-inventive. XD
aaarrrgghhhh you lucky thing! I was at school and am now at home but you know, weirdly, the weather here at the moment is about the same as you're having! 21 and sunny/cloudy! And we are nearly meant to be in winter. *sigh* random weather.
really? why have I never seen these films? I only know Red Dog and that just stereotypes all of Australia as desert and people with really broad bogan accents.
oh wow! Lots of history in your street then!
I'm 174 cm. ha ha, that'd be cool! YAY NETHERLANDS!!!
Mod
I would if I had it, but yay and thanks for sharing!
Ahh 21 degrees in winter... It's nearly summer here and the same temperature!!!174??? Wow I guess the dutch really are tall.. That doesn't sound like very tall to me, the schooldoctor told me, like eight years ago, that I'd be 174 cm. He was wrong.. Defenitely wrong, although I think you would call me really small..
I am at school too, it's warm outside and I'm forced to listen to people talking about stupid facts and boring books bwaaah
Mod
yay!
ha ha, sometimes we just gotta pull through eh?
yep! The whole world is 21 degrees!!!! 21 degrees twinsies forever!!!!
Yeaah I guess it is, your dutch genes (=27 even! Aaaaand rain. There can't be some good days without a little rain. Thanks very much, earth...
We can't have everything, right? And school's not thaaat bad. Only a little.
Mod
well, I'm up at 12:30am right now, finishing SAC revision.
