Zariah

Awww! Happy Birthdays!

"Again?! This is getting ridiculous! At the PRIME of the school year when things were SUPPOSED to be glike etting better...." She thought, "And STILL no prom date....ya know....maybe if there like IS a killer they should like start knocking off FEMALES so I have at least like ONE option for Prom....maybe that's too harsh.....in my predicament...naw..." Anxiously tapping her foot, Ashlee dialed Dee's cell and waited for her to pick up. OOC: Not ready to accuse

YEY! Congratumalations....er...Congratumalations? No!!!!Congratumalations!! Er...CONGRATS!!!

good luck!

Zariah read the announcement on the wall and carefully thought about it. "This should be great! I believe I WILL sign up," she said to Wanderer in crow speak. He responded, "Zariah, what do you think you would want more? A spell or item?" "I have no preference, Wanderer, so long as neither hinder my current abilities." With that, Zariah pulled out her trademark Quill and signed her name on the list.

Hi! My character is Ashlee..... Ashlee is on the phone with an unknown person right now....and if you want to interact with her (please, someone?) you could be that person on the phone...if you want to interact with her. Just throwing that out as an opportunity. Thanks......

That is so cute! It should be put in a poety book or hallmark card! Heehee....

I don't know Gryphon very well, but if he is liked by you Mynx, I'm sure he's awesome. If he just PMs people (like me) and chats, he'd know whether or not people like him. Just interact more and you'll see!

Have happy birthdays!

Where ever life takes you, you'll ALWAYS have a Home. Home is here at the Pen! Good luck with everything!

Ashlee put her earphones back on after hearing the announcement. Her MP3 player seemed more entertaining than dealing with all the people who were trying to get her attention to congratulate her on nomination. She thought, “Of COURSE I’m nominated. Duh? Like there’s no other way. Now it seems almost a lame excuse to nominate so many girls. I wonder what kind of drama I’m gonna have to deal with at Cheerleading practice? Ugh. Whose attention do I need to get for a date? Maybe daddy will buy me some jewelry from Tiffany’s to go with my new dress…..” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Tragic Day Ashlee sat dumbfounded for a moment after the announcement…and then an angry frown preoccupied her face as she thought, “I CAN’T believe I have NO date! How could he go and get himself killed on me like that!! Grrrrrrrrrr!!! What a loser!!!….but….is it too late to find someone else…..” She looked around the room and grabbed her bag. Rushing out of the room with tears of anger in her eyes, she made her way to her Porsche and sped home without saying goodbye to the others. Her cell rang as she pulled into the driveway. To her surprise, it was….

Yey! Call us on the show....pwease??? *gives those irresistible puppy-dog eyes*

oooh! I can't believe I forgot to post here! Happy Belated Birthday Tanuchan! I hope it was great!

Just wanted to give my hug to you too Mynx. *Hug*!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! Things I think are cool about you, Rev. ~I like how you’ve shared your personal thoughts and ponderings about your future plans for work AND you came up with pros and cons lists. This shows you know how to organize your thoughts and weigh them objectively. And I admire that quality. ~Your poems and Lyrics for the most part are really good (in my opinion) and I enjoy reading them. ~You are brave. I think you have a great deal of strength to go out there and share your opinions and your writings. You also give good critiques for other authors’ poetry. ~You responded to my poem “My favorite shoes” And it made me smile. You are funny! **I don’t know you super well….but you appear interesting and I’d love to get to know you better!**

(oooh I have NO idea... but someone else might....)

Happy birthday!

Excellent Pennites! A recap (with the answers): A man is sitting in a pub feeling rather poor. He sees the man next to him pull a wad of £50 notes out of his wallet. He turns to the rich man and says to him, "I have an amazing talent: I know almost every song that has ever existed." The rich man laughs. The poor man says, "I am willing to bet you all the money you have in your wallet that I can sing a genuine song with a lady's name of your choice in it."

:woot: Well, first off, I'd like to give a BIG shout out to YanYanGanaffi for pursuing the formation of his first post and developing it into a story! I'm very interested in this plot and I find it particularly interesting for a personal reason. I've always liked historical fiction, and I've always liked Fantasy. This story has both! Each character has a rich background and YanYanGanaffi has a great range of understanding to be able to create their histories. And just as the first few characters are connected, I'm sure the others are too. I have a hunch about where the storyline is going, (haha, especially since it IS about the prophesy coming true) and I want to read more! More! (Written at the point where there are 6 parts posted). I'm sure I'll have something more to say later....

Turn that frown upside down! You are doing great. Thanks for participating! (I'll post the answers prolly tomorrow so you can see how you did).

Just a few teasers. I'll answer them tomorrow. Add your own, if you wish. 1.) A man is sitting in a pub feeling rather poor. He sees the man next to him pull a wad of $1 bills out of his wallet. He turns to the rich man and says to him, "I have an amazing talent: I know almost every song that has ever existed." The rich man laughs. The poor man says, "I am willing to bet you all the money you have in your wallet that I can sing a genuine song with a lady's name of your choice in it." The rich man laughs again and says, "Ok how about my daughters name, Joanna Armstrong-Miller." The rich man goes home poor. The poor man goes home rich. What song did he sing? 2.) The blanks in the following sentences will be filled in with three different homonyms (words that are spelled differently but sound alike) to make valid sentences. The dashes indicate the number of letters in the words. Can you fill in the blanks? 1. The cut on his _ _ _ _ won't _ _ _ _ in time for the race, so _ _ '_ _ have to drop out. 2. The man was so upset about being _ _ _ _ that he regularly _ _ _ _ _ _ himself up on the bed and _ _ _ _ _ _ his eyes out. 3. I couldn't _ _ _ _ _ any of the _ _ _ _ _ _ in the flower shop, because for some strange reason I had 50 _ _ _ _ _ crammed up my nose. 4.

Anyone think they know them? Post your guesses.

Happy Birthday to you!

“OH. MY. GAWD…. Prom?!!!! Oh yeah, like TOTALLY wicked! I’m SO there, ya know, it’s like WHERE else would I be? Duh! I've GOT to get the word around that I'm availabe. I SWEAR I'm not going to be the only one there without a date. Eeeewww…there like better be some hotties lined up, cuz, for REAL I’m not like totally dishing it up for some dweeb. Girls, let’s hit the Mall. “ As you can see, Ashlee McDowell has that pathetic condition where overused words filter out all possibility for intelligent conversation. That is if she even HAS the intelligence….But for Ashlee, PROM is “the” most important event of Senior Year. Since she was 12, her mother (struggling soap actress and alcoholic) has conditioned her to believe that she can get ANYTHING she wants by relying on her appearance. Ashlee is a manipulator. She uses her “sexy” body and wealth (daddy owns his own overseas trading buisness) to gain popularity and notoriety. How does she pass each year? Let’s just say that she ‘KNOWS’ all the right people. (And by ‘knows’ I mean Biblically.) Do her fellow cheerleader friends hate her? Of course, who wouldn’t? But if they EVER cross her, it’s the END of their position on the squad or at any of the popular lunch tables. So essentially, fear keeps her posse in check and position on the social ladder. Ashlee is clueless about anything outside of her own oblivious perspective. Is this an advantage or disadvantage? Only time, and one deadly night, will tell.

Count me in too!!!!
