Last Person to Comment Wins!
Like making everyone come in the next day and taking them all at once? Or arresting us for not being in school?Yeah. Probably.
oohhh, Maddy won by the way!!! SORRY Madelaine!
Oh, it's fine. I don't think anyone really cares anymore. I think I've one several times, now. Mostly, we just sit around and talk. How are you?
wow i really didn't think this thing was still going
I'm always interested in keeping it up. It's not like I'm doing anything terribly exciting anyways
alright. I've been copying all the stuff I wrote this year on paper onto my computer. So not fun.
It's agonizing. Especially when the day outside is so nice
Eyhay veryoneeay!! Misy peakingspay igpay atinlay!!! Owhay oolcay siay hattay?!?!
OK, that's pretty awesome. If I had the patience to do so, I'd join you.
let me be the first to admit that I have no life. Don't want to read, don't want to write.
Just want to sit on my computer and be lazy.
lol I believe everyone has days like that (for me it's most of the year...)
YES! Whilst doing random searches on Google and staring at a tray of cookies and wishing they were blue, I discovered a party plan to throw Percy Jackson a bday party without him!Someone better help me do this...
Is it sad that I'm sort of really excited about this?
what may be more sad is I'm a bit excited and I haven't even seen the plan... and I know plenty of people who would join me in throwing such a party XD
O.O that is awesome!!! people should do this kinda stuff for all book characters' birthdays
When's Clary Fray's? Dumbledore's? Annebeth's? Jay Gatsby's? Holden Caulfield's? Hazel Grace's? Marry Poppins'?Goodreads should have a group appointed to throwing birthday parties for characters' birthdays ever day of the year.
Here's how you know when you're devoted to a piece of writing you're working on:You stay up until past one, searching the web for famous waltzes your characters can comment on to make the story more realistic for your readers. And you listen to each of them all the way through, then research the composers.
And really, when you love doing it, it's not so much as a boring research project as a fun exhibition to learn something new.
I take back what I said. Writing sucks.
Sitting in the uncomfortable heat of the summer afternoon, trying to finish the book that I've been dreaming about writing for six years, the novel I want to debut with, I'm starting to realize how hard writing is when you have to write alone.
It's easing when you have cheerleaders, but alone?Against the wind?
Uphill both ways?
It's hard.
Hey-I remember that.
Those were fun times.
Let's be the old geezers from the Muppet Show and reminisce together, eh Shab?
So where've you been? I've gotten lonely. It's very dark and dusty in here, what, with no one around...
Hey guys! i see you're reminiscing...
All we're missing is balloons. Then we could throw a party.
And cake (of some sort)... every party needs cake-like things!
I had three cup cakes for breakfast this morning. Then some gelato for lunch. I decided not to be healthy today. Screw running.
XD I don't even think I ate any meals today... I only ate some rice cakes, potato chips, a freezie, cookies, and water.
What's a freezie?ooo. Cookies. I like cookies. :)
You know not of freezies? o.OWell, they are basically flavoured ice in a plastic tube-like bag thing.
*tilts head curiously* So kinda like a slushie or a slurpie?
Yup, except when you first get it, it's more like a popsicle until it melts a bit.
I am super hungry. And the fridge is empty. :(Maybe I could make some pizzelles....
Nope. Too lazy.
Apparently I'm going out for supper today with family...and what's a pizzelle?
A pizzelle is an amazing Italian cookie that is essentially a hard pancake with a fancy pattern on it but also tastes a lot better.
I'm a sucker for Italian food. I got a pizzelle maker for my birthday a few tears ago. They're actually very easy to make.
Ooh, I know what those are! They are good... =)
