-I'm back.
-For good, hopefully.
-For the past 2 weeks I've been in the hospital.
-I had to have an operation.
-At least I can breathe now!
-The day I got home from the hospital I fell down the stairs really badly and put one of the metal things in my am out of place.
-So I had to have an operation to put it back.
-I'm going to get a horrible scar where it came out of my elbow.
-Eurgh.
-I got given a laptop to do my coursework on in the hospital. I didn't get to keep it.
-The Internet on it was really bad and just wouldn't work most days.
-I remember having a wacKY dream.
-But I don't remember what the dream was about.
-I wonder if there is a reason why we forget our dreams?

-Hope you feel/get better soon, Amber.
-I had a Parent/Teacher fellowship tonight, and had to put on 2 plays and sing 3 songs
-How bothersome
-It went okay though
-I accidentally knocked over the fake fire when I threw my staff in anger
-I had to set it back up during the play....
-Oh my... OH my
-That saying is better in person.

[deanna.]

-I was wondering where you had gone, Amber.
-I hope you feel better soon.
-*gives balloons*
-It's about 10 at night here.
-I'm on Christmas break.
-So I can do absolutely s**t-all.
-w00t.

[Sixteen]

-Feel better, Amber!
-I saw Narnia on Sunday.
-It was an excellent day.
-The film started at 11 o'clock.
-It was very good.
-Much truer to the book version than most adaptations are *coughHarryPottercough*
-But then afterwards we (my aunt, cousin and I) got on a bus to a museum nearby.
-We stepped inside to a ballroom.
-At one wall there was the wardrobe.
-It was carved the same and all.
-We were served drinks of Red lemonade, white leomnade and apple juice mixed together.
-Try it.
-It's tongue-meltingly delicious.
-When everyone arrived, the wardrobe was opened.
-We stepped through, brushing against fur coats until we emerged in Narnia.
-Well, a good representation of it anyway.
-The lamppost was in front of us.
-There were snow-covered trees everywhere and the movie soundtrack was playing in the background.
-It was magical.
-We were then seated at tables which were placed at breaks in the "forest".
-Jadis, the Queen and Ginnibrick, the dwarf were there to welcome us.
-As much of a welcome that a White Witch can give
-We had melon balls for starters, roast beef with vegetables for main course.
-And for dessert, there was a chocolate fountain! Heaven! with green jelly, poached pears, chocolate log, marshmallows and fruit.
-And as if that wasn't enough, there was a Magic Of Science show afterwards.
-When we were leaving, we were given a box of Turkish Delight, a Narnia bookmark and a Selection Box.
-It was all free because the bank that my mam and aunt work for paid for the 280 of us that went!

-Net-Wars II Entry SIX is up
-So go read it
-It's really, really skilled
-So, holidays
-Finally
-I saw Saw II today
-It was pretty cool
-Gory, but cool
-More gory than the last, I'm sure
-Nice twist near the end
-We still don't know what happened to Gordon, though
-He must have died...hmmm
-Well, that's my post

[Linda Rhaldeen]

-That was a good entry, PJ.
-Oh, before I forget again, I saw one of Dave’s brothers yesterday.
-At least I think it was Dave’s brother.
-There was a girl eating yogurt with a spoon, and I was staring at her spoon because it kept lighting up.
-On closer inspection, the handle turned out to be a light saber handle, and so I assumed it was a light saber spoon like Dave.
-I asked the girl if it was a light saber spoon, and she said it was.
-Then I asked her if it was Dave’s brother.
-She looked at me strangely and asked who Dave was, and so I told her that Dave is an omnipotent Australian light saber spoon.
-Then she looked at me even more strangely and made an excuse to get away.
-And another thing.
-Blatant Advertising.

[Dante]

-We've waited a very long time, haven't we?
-We've endured shapeshifting owls, mecha ninja, regular ninja, and Blue Chamber, but after such a very long time, it's finally here.
-White Chamber
-For fans of the room escape genre, this is a great day.
-Even the cheap rip-off room escapes have been drying up recently, although there were a spate of over-complex ones recently.
-Hence I've changed my profile.
-Although that's partly due to fond memories of the Crimson Room / Viridian Room theme we had long ago.
-Interesting, really, since PJ asked me only a week or so ago about this.
-Although it could have been longer.
-And ironic, too, as I found out about this at the exact moment I was thinking that the site would probably never update again.
-Still, no complaints.
-And it's a good game, too.
-I'll probably keep this theme for a couple of days.
-Anyway, I had a fairly dull day at school today.
-Despite it being the penultimate day before the holidays, no teacher was setting us fun work, oh no.
-I was set an English essay, which I've now already done.
-And some Maths homework, although not nearly as much as usual, and I'm spreading that out over the holidays.
-And I was also told to read a book that I'd already read, which was welcome.
-And tomorrow shouldn't be so bad, either.
-I don't think I'll be doing much work in Government, although we will be going over our test.
-But I did well on that, I understand, so it's okay.
-Oh, and some birthday presents from my uncle arrived.
-So I'm actually in a pretty good mood at the moment.
-It was becoming a rarity, but in the short term, things are looking up for me right now.

-I agree.
-I saw it yesterday with group of about 30 youth people from my church.
-It was really well done.
-I read the book a few years ago, and then I reread it a few months ago.
-I'm not quite done all the books yet.
-The actress who played Lucy looked exactly like one of my friends' little sister.
-It was kind of creepy.

[Antenora]

-Your new profile is cool, Dante.
-However, White Chamber doesn't seem to be working for me at all.
-Either I don't have the right version of Flash, or too many people are using the site right now, or...something.
-I don't think I ever finished Blue Chamber, incidentally.
-I quite enjoyed Narnia.
-I might end up seeing it again over Christmas break.
-And I want to see Goblet of Fire again sometime.
-My Christmas break starts this Friday.
-I don't know what kinds of fun things we'll be doing in the last few days.
-I haven't been sleeping well, and I feel kind of sick.
-Several of my teachers have been out sick recently.

Edit:
-I downloaded Flash.
-I seem to have finally got the game working.
-Although it's loading pretty slowly.

[PJ]

-Ah, I saw Dante's sig and avatar, and instantly knew it was out
-Hang on...wasn't it Pink Prison, or something, that was coming out?
-It's only a Chamber, so it's just a mini-game, no?
-It takes ages to load, though
-Hmmm
-I'll have a lock around

Fake Edit:
-Wow, this is hard
-I'm stuck....
-Gaaah! Help!

Real Edit:
-Almost done!

Edit 2:
-Huzzah!
-I completed it!
-And, for the first time, without cheating!
-I feel uber-proud
-Truth be told, I couldn't find any walkthroughs...BUT STILL!

[Dante]

-Well, that's my term over with.
-At last.
-And it was an easy end, too.
-I had at least two quizzes.
-One of which I gave up on due to lack of knowledge about my own hometown.
-The other of which I was in the winning group of, but possibly because I defected from my original group.
-My original group only had me and one other person, and he soon joined me as well.
-There were a few trick, or "special" questions.
-"How many seconds are there in a year?"
-Although if you're interpreting it like that, then really, I must protest, because couldn't you also count February as well as...?
-Oh, and in one memorable moment, I said the correct answer right to the face of one of my associates, and he turned to the teacher and gave completely the wrong question.
-I shouted at him, of course.
-Apparently, my face went very red.
-But it's been too long since I've had a good shout at anyone.
-There are times when I miss my old, violent ways.
-Which I think somebody alluded to recently.
-I need to eliminate everyone who remembers my past, so as to remain enigmatic and elusive.
-It's a real shame that it's so hard to become a recluse these days.
-Especially with parents like mine.
-At least everyone's out now, so I'm free to sit in a darkened room and type away.
-It's so rare a pleasure to be alone in this house.
-Solitude, for me, is very hard to find.
-Anyway, enough of that.
-Oh, one of my associates brought wine gums to school, so I ate a few of those.
-They were too chewy.
-And the blackcurrant ones - at least, I hope that's what they were - had a somewhat unappetising appearance.
-Still, can't complain.
-Actually, I can.
-Hence I do, nearly whenever I get an opportunity.
-It's such a fun and easy pastime, because you don't even need to know what you're talking about.
-Oh, and I had a debate with a few people about religion, evangelism, separation of church and state and the origins of morality at school, during a breaktime.
-I enjoyed it, but possibly that's because I try to surround myself with people who share my views.
-Hence all four or five of us pretty much agreed.

[Alice Wilde]

-Tell me, is it blasphemy to hate Christmas?
-We're having it at my house this year.
-So, tomorrow, I've got to go the city, and spend three hours waiting in line for...
-Ham.
-Christmas ham.
-Joyous, wonderful, life-saving ham.
-Not.
-If that's not too lame.
-Actually, it'll be nice to get out.
-I never could stay in the house very long.
