-It seems odd that it's 2006.
-I wrote 2005 there to start with, which made me chortle.
-I was getting all my stuff ready for school tomorrow, but I've just remembered that I don't have school tomorrow.
-Which is good.
-It gives me that chance to do all of the work that I should have done over the past two weeks.
-I've sort of given up with some of my subjects.
-I didn't get all of the ones that I wanted, and there is no way that I'm going to pass.
-Even if I did try.
-I've been put in for basketball for next term.
-Last time I played basketball I broke a load of bones in my hand and sprained my wrist.
-I'm going to see if I can get moved to a different class.
-I've had to stay with my Grandparents for the last few days as the house alarm in our house was broken.
-The sensor was too sensitive so the alarm went off when the cats moved around downstairs.
-It was horrible, as my Grandparents already had people to stay and I had to sleep in the dining room.
-It was so uncomfortable.
-I don't want to go back to school.
-But I do, because Pat is back on Wednesday.
-He's been in Singapore for months.
-Ugh, it sucked, my best friend was halfway across the world.
-He did get back last week, but his family went on holiday.
-Which might sound weird, but they were in Singapore because his Dad had a job there, it wasn't a holiday.
-For Christmas I got a new keyboard, and threw away my old one before I opened the new one.
-I'm so stupid.
-The new one wouldn't work, and I had made a point of breaking the old one up before I threw it away.
-So I've taken the keyboard from one of my Dad's computers.
-The keys are all close together, and don't press down very far so I keep making mistakes.
-And not knowing I've made mistakes.
-Because I still can't type and look at the screen.
-I have to watch my hands.
-And my hands are creepy.
-They're all long and thin, and I have a big scar on the back of my left hand.
-Which makes the skin between my thumb and first finger look torn.
-The scar on my elbow has really faded down from last month.
-You can't really tell it's there unless you're looking for it.
-But the scar right down my side is unlikely to fade, though.
-But you never know.
-I can't think of much else to say, except that I'm sad that I wasn't here when all of the 'hacking' was taking place.
-Reading through those threads really made me laugh.

[A. the Returned]

-I haven't posted in this thread for a long time.
-I'm not really sure why, either
-Probably because I haven't had anything to say.
-Well, we're getting a tv in our car.
-Father's been putting it in all long week end.
-I even had to help yesterday.
-It's really quite heavy and as it is mounted on the roof, my arms are incredibly sore from holding it up.
-It'll all be worth it when I'm watching tv in the car, though.
-So, I'm extremely sunburnt.
-I spent the majority of yesterday, New Years Day, in the pool with my friends who had stayed over to see the New Year in.
-They ended up staying until dinner.
-So, summer holidays are starting to get boring.
-It's always around this time that you just run out of things to do.
-It was about this time I was just searching the net for asoue sites because I had nothing better to do and discovered 667.
-I guess it's not really so bad.
-Talking about, only 13 days until my one year anniversary.
-None of you can claim you didn't know now.
-So, that's about all for now.
-Bye.

[Linda Rhaldeen]

-There seem to be a lot of newbies posting actual random facts in here recently.
-Or maybe I'm just imagining that there are a lot.
-Anyways, I'm going to do some more advertising.
-Like this.
-I don't want to post chapter seven of my story yet.
-It's horribly cheesy, and I don't want other people to read it.
-Hopefully I'll be able to fix it sometime.
-Are Dante and PJ on vacation?
-It seems like I heard somewhere that they were, but I have no idea where I heard it or where to confirm it.
-Hmm, the mail's here, and there's something for me.
-I never get mail.

Edit:
-All right, I just got my ACT score.
-For some reason, I thought it wasn't coming for several more weeks.
-It looks like I got a 31.
-That's good, if I remember right.
-I'll have to go check.

[Dante]

-Temporary Departure Thread in GGreetings, Linda?
-Although I'm back now.
-I have been for a few hours, although I haven't been posting too much.
-It's tiring work, going through 667 after several days away.
-Especially when you've been up to so much, and lots of things have happened.
-While I'm away, naturally.
-Because it wouldn't do for things to happen while I'm actually here, would it?
-I might actually be able to comment! Gasp!
-And know what's going on!
-Couldn't allow that, could you?
-I hate going on holiday.
-My parents take us away too often.
-Anyway, while I was on holiday, I found a copy of The Gulag Archipelago on a bookshelf.
-I read the first few pages, and it looked interesting.
-Almost a pity that I lack the stamina to read it.
-And I had six other books to read, anyway.
-Plus the extra one that I was given by some relatives / family friends (I forget which) who appeared.
-And also gave me some rather expensive chocolates.
-Anyway, I went to quite a few places.
-Mostly castles.
-I also revisited the place where I wanted to perform the first of FFWF Investigates.
-I suppose a lot of people here wouldn't remember those.
-But it was a long time ago.
-Mother just walked up to me with a large tub containing some not quite so large cubes of fudge.
-Quite tasty fudge.
-I'm not quite sure where she got it from.
-I don't mind, though.
-Anyway, time for a look on Amazon.co.uk, to see what's coming out.
-Hm, hm...
-Oh, Darren Shan, why must you write World Book Day books that I'll probably never get?
-And why is it taking so long for your wretched Demonata books to come out in paperback, so my parents will actually consent to get them for me?
-So ungrateful, the man.
-And after I bought his first series of twelve books, too.
-They were never in hardback, but it seems you're too good for paperbacks now, aren't you, Shan?
-Bah.
-Anyway, uh...
-No, that rambling rant has taken all my ideas away.
-It's probably for the best.

[Grace]

-I'm pissed at IMDb.com.
-I'm pissed at other things too.
-I have a short temper, in case you haven't guessed.
-APascal is hot.
-How come every guy with the name Adam is Jewish?
-Adam Brody, Adam Sandler, Adam Pascal.
-*shrug*
-I'm bored.
-As usual.
-But going to a basketball game tomorrow.
-Score!

-Adam State
-I went to see Memoirs of a Geisha.
-It was an absoulete work of art.
-I almost want to be sold from my family now.
-However, it pales in comparsion to the novel.
-The novel was brilliant, and made me think.
-Mother and I arrived at the theater 45 minutes early.
-So, I talked her ear off about Daniel Handler, his novels, and his screenplays.
-Now, she says she knows what to get me for my birthday.
-I told her I had nearly everything he's written.
-Then she said "I said it had to do with him...not it had to do with him."
-The difference being of course...
-I don't know.
-But, I'm excited.

[Erik]

-A movie about Marching Penguins can actually recieve five stars.

[Snicket]

-Today is my birthday.
-I know nobody here would care.
-I am seeing an IMAX movie later today.
-Other than going to an IMAX movie today, I really have nothing to look forward to.
-Yay.

[Dante]

-I'm interested, Snicket.
-And I hope you have a happy birthday.
-And since I'm making this post now, I might as well say some other things.
-Because I didn't have anything to say earlier, but now I do.
-I'm reading the Ursula Le Guin's Earthsea trilogy.
-Although I already have the first book in a separate volume, whereas the book I'm currently reading is an omnibus with the first three.
-And I understand that there's a fourth book, so it's not much of a trilogy.
-And I just added a heap of books I want to an Amazon order.
-A few classics, and a few pieces of fairly cheap filler.
-The latter I wouldn't buy, but I bought the first three books.
-And anyway, I like some short, unchallenging books to pass the time occasionally.
-There's some other stuff that I want, but it's all in hardback at the moment.
-Ah.
-I just remembered I have a chore to do.
-Among other chores.
-At least I don't go back to school until Thursday.
-The sun is shining pretty much in my eye.
-But there seems to be a lot of thin cloud in the way, so it's not so bad.
-Anyway, I think I'll flip through the newspaper and find a random story to look at.
-Michael Caine.
-Advertising link to teenage drinking, tyre slasher vandalism spree...
-Malaria, something about Blair and Cameron...
-A random flick through the papers gives one an interesting snapshot of what's going on at the moment, I think.
-Although it's not exactly a hidden arcane secret, passed down through the generations to seventh children who are bestowed with a golden casket inside which this opinion is written.
-Although it would certainly be exciting if it was.

[Erik]

-I care about Snicket's Birthday

School is annoying because it makes me go to bed in two minutes.
Though I had a lovely day simply because everytime I saw someone I got to give them a huge hug since we were back from break.
School is good because it makes me adore the people I have classes with since they make classes less boring.
And there's gossipy goodness.
I have too many things I want or need to read, too many things I want to bake, and too many applications I'm dreading less but am still lazy about.
I love being too happy for no reason.
Soap is possibly the worst Christmas present ever.
I haven't given any of my friends Christmas presents yet.
We should be exchanging them sometime before next month though.
My mom will still probably have the tree up so it's okay.
