The Party Room / Tell us something about yourself!
« on: November 26, 2014, 05:21:53 AM »
Ok...now to let you know about me...

How about something none of you would of guessed?

I'm not actually 'native' Australian-may I tell you my story? Not sure if a full story would go here..but I'll tell you anyway.


I'm actually from Sweden. My mother was Australian though she moved to Sweden in her teenage years,my father lived in Sweden his whole life.

I was born in Sweden and lived there until I was 13,my mother wanted to return to Australia again as her parents moved back there,my father was also sick of Sweden so we packed our bags and headed down under.

At first I kinda hated Australia,much different from Sweden. And it was confusing with the timezones.

Day was now night and night was now day..sesh. Not to mention the seasons were in 'reserve order'.

Luckily for me I already knew English,such my mother still spoke it in our swedish home,plus I took an English class at school,so speaking the language was no problem for me,it was fitting in.

I got to have a month to settle in to my new country before I attended Australian school for the first time,again it was different.

The Australian schooling system is much different from any part of Europe or even America,all 'highschool' is one school.

There is 12 'years' + Kindergarden

K-Year 6 is called 'primary school' and year 7-year 12 is Australian highschool..took me a while to get used to that.

To help me get friends in Australia,I signed up for horse riding lessons,I always liked horses but since I lived in Stockholm,which is the largest city in Sweden,we had no where to keep horses.

Anyway,I started learning to ride but didn't really speak to anyone. Though one day at school I saw a girl walk past and I realized I saw her at the stables the previous weekend,I realized 'oh cool there is a horse rider here'  called out to her..she either didn't hear or decided to ignore me..that person turned out to be none other then GOF member Nahla..dang Nahla being a snob to me..kidding.

I got made fun a lot for a while...yeah sucked to be me..until I did end up making friends with the snob..err..sorry Nahla ( :D)

Nahla said,and I quote..ask her yourself she said this..even ask her.

"Don't worry,Sarah..we can be outcast losers together"

Perfect line to start a friendship is it not?


Anyway..I bet you're bored reading about me so....

And yes,my real name is Sarah..so you guys can call me that from now on..or just keep on calling me whatever you's been calling me.

The Fridge / Presents as Kid
« on: November 26, 2014, 04:28:03 AM »
Sorry,Nahla had to laugh at you,you wrapped up your fathers car keys... :lol..and your mothers toothbrush.

Daughter of the year goes to-NOT Nahla. :lol


On my fathers Birthday,when I was about 6,I decided to make him a coffee..cause he loved coffee..so I poured coca-cola into a cup..cause coke looked like coffee to me...

I thought it didn't look good enough,so I decided to add froth to it like I saw on TV...haha I used dishwashing liquid that I scrapped off the top of a container...haha.

Good thing my father noticed or it would of ended very badly...I never lived that down either.

Hey,guys may I make yous a coffee? I'm like a pro as you can see  :lol.


A few other strange gifts I gave during my childhood years.

When I was 8 my mother wanted a new kettle,so I got her a plastic toy one..she still has it to this day actually.

I have more tales to tell,but I'll rather not make myself look like a fool..pretty sure the whole coffee story already did that though.


And as for weirdest presents I ever got was a box of bottle cap magnets,but it was cute because the neighbours kids made them for everyone in the street. I have them around somewhere.



Quote
I do recall getting a roll of toilet paper covered in glitter for Christmas

Nahla,told me that story. Her niece was trying to make her a pencil holder. Too cute if you ask me. I love homemades gifts,though sometimes they make no sense what so ever.

Ducky's question was answered by said flyer crashing down. "Petrie! You're okay!" but when she actually got a look at the flyer-she realized he was not okay,far from it.

"Petrie!" she cried out "Petrie is hurt everyone,we must do something!" she looked around frantic-she had to help her friend "What can do we do? We can't just go and ask the grown-ups for help,nope nope nope."

We need to put something over the worst wound... she looked around "We need..to put something where he is injured...thats what the grown ups do when we get hurt.." Ducky could not control her emotions at this time,she couldn't handle all this sudden change. Her mind couldn't process it.

She leaned down to the flyer "Don't worry,Petrie..you'll be okay...we'll take care of you..yep,yep,yep...I guess now...we all have to take care of each other..our mummy and daddys don't like us anymore...we sharpteeth now..I do not understand,how dd this happen to us?"

She decided to brush those thoughts aside for the moment and focus on saving what she considered her closest friend,besides Spike. "W-w--where does it hurt,Petrie?"

------------------------

Tria caught up to her mate,panting from breath from the frantic chase. "They're..they're gone...I saw them..leave through the main exit" she glanced quickly to the exit "I've seen no sign of Cera or her friends..expect...welll"

The pink threehorn paused "Those sharpteeth that left...well Chomper was with them,he seemed to know them"

Kate wandered around,still not having a clue. Scanning into the distance she spotted two forms-two HUMAN forms.

Hope filling her she broke into a jog calling out before they left "WAIT!" she skidded to a stop in front of Hanna and J.L. "Umm..can you guys help me? I kinda took a wrong turn and have no idea where I am-any directions would be welcomed"

Kate had amused that these two were residents,not having of heard the conversation between them before. She paused for a moment before remembering her manners,she reached out her hand "I'm,Kate and as you can clearly tell I am not from around here-please tell me you guys are or at least know the area"

Ducky kept pace with the others,luckily for her she was long used to two legs so this was easier for her then it was for her former four-legged friends. At least Littlefoot and Chomper are now safe,yep yep yep

The sounds of the threat behind them grew more distant as the exit drew closer-we did it! Ducky cheered in her mind.

Ducky left herself relax just a little bit as she and the others passed  through the main exit to the valley,they were no longer in Great Valley lands. They were in what was called the Mysterious Beyond-the land of sharpteeth so be fair,they were in their land now.

Reality overtook her Our...our..own parents...tried to kill us...they chased us..out of our home... she skidded to stop to catch her breath,her blood still pumped from the mad sprint for her life "We did it everyone,yep..yep..yep" she slightly turned her head to look at her friends,she couldn't believe these..predators were her friends..she couldn't believe she was the predator she now found herself as,with a shaky breath she tried to keep back an emotional breakdown,it was not enough. The first tear fell from her eyes,she quickly wiped it away,there would be time for that later."Where is Petrie?"

Grandpa has to remain calm,he had no idea where his grandson or his friends were. But right now he had to focus on the job at hand-protecting the valley. "Bring all children here,do not scatter them in different areas,Grandma and I shall stand guard"

Knowing both he and his mate were not as young and strong as they once were,Grandpa volunteered them both to guard the children,they had already lost some. They couldn't afford to lose more.

His mind drifted to Chomper-where was HE? Did he cause all of this? Had the little sharptooth betrayed them?

If so..what did that mean for the missing children? Did Chomper not only betray the valleys trust,but also turn on his friends?

He didn't have time to think about that now.for right now many lives and the valley it's self could be in danger,in the distant he could hear the roars of the old threehorn in full rage,not something that was new to him overall but this time it was different,the threehorn sounded like he was out to kill.

Scanning around the moonlit valley,Grandpa could not get the thought out of his mind Littlefoot..where are you? Please be safe wherever you are...please just be alright..

My grandmother has suffered a heartattack and they are transferring her to a special care unit in a Sydney hospital,I'll be going down there with the rest of my family to be with her,we'll be staying in a hostel on the hospital grounds and there will be no wifi unless I go into the city it's self,plus I won't even be bringing my laptop so I would have to go to an internet cafe.

Kate stumbled through the forest,after getting taking the wrong path whilst on a walk she found herself lost in this creepy forest. She could not find the path out again.

She scanned the distance ,hope filled her when she spotted the outline of a village,picking up her pace she jogged the rest of the way nearly loosing her balance with a misplace foot on some loose rocks.

"Maybe the people here can tell me the way out" she mumbled as she emerged into the town square "If..there is any people..." she added glancing around at the seemingly empty village "Hello? Anyone there?".

She quickly adjusted her scarf before walking through the empty village,it was old she knew that much. "Woah..this place must be hundreds of years old...I wonder if anybody still knows about this place...it seems like no one lives here.." she took quick glances around trying to spot any sign of life-nothing.

She shivered slightly as she stepped back into the forest,it was not due to cold but something..something just sent shivers up her spine. This place was creepy. She stared ahead,the forest seemed to expand on forever and she could not just wander around,who knows where she would end up.

Turning back she walked back into the village and sat down on an old but amazingly still strong street bench,all she could hope was either someone else was around here or  someone came looking for her. As for right now.

She had no idea where she was.

I've already gave you my comment on this,but I'll put something here too.

Well this is something new.

The gang actually reincarnations of famous heroes from the past. So they had lived before and died but were reborn as the characters we know them as? Coooool.

Quote
"Ow...I hit my head on something" Littlefoot whined rubbing his head with his tail.

Cera snorted in reply "Yeah,you did. MY head!"

What's that a reference too? I remember hearing it somewhere...


This is pretty good,it's shortness is forgiveable considering it is just an intro.

I look forward to seeing how you go about this,this what I like about you. You attempt ideas no one has tried no matter how odd they appear instead of the same typical love story deal.

Here is mine for now. Like everyone else I'm keeping my character a bit of a mystery at first,


Name: Kate Brown
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Appearance: Average height,5' ft 10". Light brown hair with hightlights that lays loosely on her shoulders. Light green eyes on tan skin. Tends to wear a purple scarf around neck and is rarely seen without it.
Personality: Never does much to try and overpower anyone,some may call her a doormat. She'll back away from a fight if possible. Never disagreeing to others choices even if she does feel it is wrong in fear of them turning against her. Prefers to use logic over rather then emotional action.

I believe we also discussed that each character will come from somewhere different.

I think thats what Nahla said,each character comes from a different location and none of them have met before. So all our characters will be strangers to each other at first.

I think she wanted to do that to make it more interesting story wise,our character suddenly trapped in this haunted place with a bunch of strangers. Friendships will form over time.

"It would be weird for strangers to meet and are right away BFF,and it would be better if we had to build trust and stuff with the others." -Nahla's own words. And I agree,it would be more interesting.

How they get there..undecided. I think someone in the chat mentioned they wake up their with no memory of how they got here.

Oh no no no,this not good. It is not it is not

Ducky was fleeing with the rest of her friends,she was amazed at her new found speed,but that was not her concern right now. She quickly glanced behind her. She wondered why Spike and Littlefoot fell,then she remembered they were used to four legs,unlike her. She walked on two legs her whole life.

Behind her she heard the three-horns chasing "Oh this not good at all" continuing her sprint.

"How did this happen?" she spoke to herself and the others at the same time "Did someone do this to us?"

Tria walked with quick strides,the alarm call still rang in her ears. Around her she could see the other residents reacting to the call,it seemed the whole valley was awake now.

She caught something out the corner of her eye and froze. Then went another one and another all in fleeing like their lives depended on it-sharpteeth.

Keep her eye on the way they were heading she took a deep breath and yelled as loud as she could "SHARPTEETH IN THE VALLEY!" she glared after the sharpteeth "You's better run if you know whats good for you! You'll pay for ever coming into this valley!"

She followed them not letting them leave her sight,these sharpteeth needed to be put in their place...little did she know who she was really chasing..little did she know.

Grandpa's peaceful slumber was disturbed by the alarm. Jerking awake he took glances around the valley,was the alarm real? Or was it just a sleep story going bad? Then he heard it again.

The unmistakeable alarm call,it was real. Grandpa nudged his mate and stood up as fast as an elderly longneck could. Instinctively Grandpa gazed over to the spot his grandson rested,to his dismay Littlefoot was gone. He knew Littlefoot did tend to sneak off but right now the fact his grandson was missing at the time their were alarms being sent that the valley was under attack filled him with fear he did not want to admit. Without another moments hesitation he quickly went over to the Flyer Nest,around him he could see panic.

Where are the children?

The children were a smart bunch,they have gotten out of all sorts of things. But their luck could not last forever-could it?

Looking up upon the flyer above,he knew already tragedy had struck the valley.

He could not let his panic get to him,he had to remain strong for the whole valley. Clearing his throat he spoke "What's going on? What bought to to sound the alarm this late into the night?" though inside he already knew,the flyers have lost something. He knew those cries all too well,also there was no mistaking the red substance covering the flyer.

Blood.

Though he asked he knew very well what as going on,the Great Valley was being attacked. And the children were missing,that was two things Grandpa did not want to see ever. And now both were happening at once. He didn't even want to think of the fact there was a chance the children were already gone-lost in the attack. The thought of the any childs deaths was hard enough....but his own grandson-unbearable.

He just hoped Littlefoot and his friends had found safety..and they'll stay there until the threats were removed.

Yes,that had to be it. The children were fine..that had to be. However looking up and seeing that injured,possibly dying Valaria made him begin to doubt his own thoughts.

Sorry if this is the wrong one to post this but.

I would like to just skip voting this year.

I don't really interact with other members or am very active so voting will be hard for me when I barely know anyone or what they tend to do.

So if possible,I'll just like to skip all voting this year,I'm not really interested in winning awards anyway.
