The Stargem's: A History.

From the Myth Master's Team's Desk.....

"Ok everyone! Gather round!" Amber yelled.

Bloggers, friends, and Amber's story people gathered around her.

"Have you guys ever wondered, where me and Calamity, our family comes from?"

Most nodded, some were still stunned.

"The Stargems, are a rich family, in the history. Most of the ghosts, in Dragonspyre, are StarGem's ancestors. My mom, and dad lived in Dragonspyre, before Malistaire came. My mom was in myth, my dad in fire. Mom fought dragons, and dad ran the robe store." Amber said, passing around a photo of a lady, wearing armor, with black spiky hair, and a man, with bright red hair.

"Then I was born, and raised in Dragonspyre, until I was 10. By then, Malistaire came, and there was explosions, where we hid in the shelter. Also by then, I had 3 sisters, and mom was pregnant, with twins. I bid farewell to my sisters, and parents. I was entering the school of myth, to the joy of my mom, and when I left, she gave me a bag, that was for "When I was in grave danger." My father tried to sneak a sword in my bag, but caught by Cyrus, who always hated him. Years past,and I got letters from my mom, telling of the explosions becoming more frequent. One time, I went to visit, I was in Marleybone at the time, and I was shocked." she spoke.

"My family home was in ruins. A deputy chief was inspecting it, saying it had just happened, a bomb fell nearby it. Ignoring his shouts, I ran into the smoldering house, catching burns. I searched, but all I couldn't find my parents. I then heard crying, and then I saw Calamity, who was 4 at the time, crying behind her bed. She sobbed, telling me, how "mommy, and daddy" tried to save all of us, including them, but failed. She said, that "evil men" went, and took all the children away, and the only one's she could save was her, and my two year old sister Scarlet." Amber told them, wiping a tear from her eye.

"I gave Scarlet to foster care, and met up with her a few months back. Calamity stayed at my house, until she got her own, a year ago. It was hard, caring for another girl, but I managed. For my parents, they died, along with a sister a year younger, who was sickly a ton. They tore down my family house, and I have a few things I salvaged, from the fire. Sometimes, I see their ghosts, in Dragonspyre. They tell me, that most people who are ghosts, have gone evil, but they won't. They also tell me to say strong, care for my sisters, (when I find all of them) and the only way I can survive, as long as they did, when evil lurks, is to have trust in friends, and siblings." she finished up.

MYTH MASTER IS NOW A YEAR OLD BABY!

From the Myth Master's Team's Desk.....

Yup, you heard it. The Myth Master started on May 28th, 2009. Yes, I have been blogging longer then you think, right?? Also, today is my 190th post too. Times have gone by so fast haven't they?

Here's my VERY first post, which no one commented on, because I didn't have it on anyone's blogroll, entitled:Hello and Welcome

Hello and Welcome to the Myth Master! I post this daily and will try to get many people to visit this site. I play Wizard 101 and I am in Dragonspyre as a master in myth. My second school is death and storm. I mostly visit the Friendly Necromacer and West Karana. I hope you like this site and visit this often.
Bye!

Happy Questing!

*facepalm* Please, don't look at the horror. Several things happened in this:

1: I did NOT post everyday. In fact I think I'm the least posting blogger.
2: It's garbage.

It IS I SWEAR!

Anyways, things have changed a ton, I put on a quitting scare, celebrated Halloween, and Christmas with ya'll. Before I go I would like to thank a few people in no paticular order, for being such great friends or helping me out:

-Alia LotusPetal
-Jessica Fairyheart
-Kestrel Shadowthistle
-Thomas Lionblood
-Ronan Ravenshard
-Malorn Willowsmith
-Cassandra Griffindreamer
-Autumn Duskhunter
-Allan Dragonshard
-Christina Griffin
-Jessica Rosesong
And of course,
-Samantha ThunderShield, we've been best friends since last July, and Angel UnicornBreath, we've been friends for MORE then a year.

That's it right?

OF COURSE %$^$% NOT!

I'd like to thanks my B.F.F., partner in crime, and caring frienemie:

VANESSA SUNRIDER!

Thanks everyone for a great year, let the next be even greater then this one.

Lots of Love,

-Amber StarGem

Just a Little Pic..


From the Myth Master's Team's Desk.....

This is a picture, that my mother took, of my tap class for the rehearsal. To avoid identity theft, I blacked out the heads, but aren't the costumes pretty? It's for the song Devil With the Blue Dress.

That's it,

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!












From the Myth Master's ... whatever it said ...
YAYYY!!!!!!!!!!
Why are you so excited? Because I finally found my lost book!!
Big whoop. No, no, voice in my head, it is a big whoop because this book happens to be The Last Olympian, signed by the author, Rick Riordan.
If you are a passionate Percy Jackson and the Olympian reader like I am, you will find the joy of this discovery :D
How did we get it signed? Riordan came to St. Louis last year for a special speech and book signing. So many people came the line wrapped around the whole library. We were all waiting for at least 2 or 3 hours, but it was so worth it. Luckily, everyone got inside before it started pouring down rain.
He's extremely funny even in real life, and this was of course before the Red Pyramid was out, so he told everyone about that.
Then he signed our book.
But, one day this year, I was looking to read it for the tenth billion time, when I go to my bookshelf, and it isn't there. At first, I'm slightly worried, but then I absolutely can't find it. I pretty much tear my room apart looking for the book. I love the series so much, and that book is pretty awesome.
Where was it? At my school, in the library.
At first, the librarian called, a woman whom I dispise. I was like "What?" when she told me my book was at the library.
But then I understood. We let her borrow it for some book display once, and I guess she never gave it back ..
That evil fiend. She kept it for over a year
Humph. Well, all that matters is that I got it back(:
:D!
Well here are some pics from the signing ...



Before he signed books, Riordan talked for a while about the series and what was next. So many people attended some were in the room he was speaking in, and some had to stay in a room off of that and watch on a screen.






Riordan, signing our book.











Group 11!













Anyone who likes this series, tell me, because I love them! I remember getting the first book about a week after it came out, and instantly I fell in love with it. I convinced Amber to read it after a while, and the rest, as they say, is history.
It's been a while since that first one came out, like 2 or 3 years?
Wow, it really doesn't seem that long.
He wrote 5 books with that series and is working on the Red Pyramid now. Riordan is such an amazing author.
There's even a movie. Also tell me if you've read the book and seen the movie, what did you think? I personally thought a lot of it was wrong, but Hollywood never does an amazing job of making it perfectly like the book. It actually was pretty funny, and I loved how Grover was a gangsta.
The dude who plays him is a rapper in real life xD
But the effects were really good. They left out a lot and added a lot ... but it possibly could have been worse. I'll see the next one of course, because I am simply a die-hard fan.
One part that sucked about the movie is that they didn't do the part where they partially blew up the arch. I mean, come on! I just happen to live by it, and do they put it in the movie? Nope. It would have been insanely awesome though if they came to St. Louis and filmed it there. I would have gone to watch.
Have a great rest of your week, take a risk, and read a book for me.
Ciao,
Vanessa Sunrider

Summer(:

From the Myth Master's Team's Desk.....
Summer!
Starting with summer.
It's been awesome so far!
It's realllllllyy hot outside though, so that kind of sucks. But that's okay I don't really care. You know you're in my neighborhood when everyone is shoeless.
Plus, for some really weird reason, these elementary school kids are like suddenly obsessed with rollerblading... I mean you can't even go outside without seeing a kid rollerblading.
I mean, what the heck? I have no idea how that got started, but I guess it was one of those things that just happened without saying anything.
Anyway, on the first day of summer (Well, not technically but whatever) I painted my nails. I know, epic, but it was just the perfect day.

Isn't that pretty cool?
It's this green-ish with sparkles(: lol. My sis did my nails because 1. She's awesome at it and 2. I paint hers she paints mine, that's just how it works.
Soo anyway, after my nails dried, I painted my little neighbor's nails too. They're in 3rd and 1st grade, so cute, and I babysit them. We're like dis *crosses fingers* and I'm like they're best friend and role model. It's so funny :D
After that, we blow bubbles. I don't just go it because they want to, it's because I LOVE BUBBLES :D Remember, Amber, when we blew bubbles? xD
Then I took them to the pond by my house and we caught tadpoles. It was fun, just scooping out dirty pond water with your bear hands and catching the little tadpoles.
Then we had pudding xD
But the next day was a LOT more interesting. My cousin Rose and her brothers came over, and Rose and I are like dis *Crosses fingers*
So we come up with an idea (Amber, remember? lol).. we play this arrow game, that you guys should try sometime. One team of people hide somewhere in the neighborhood, leaving arrows showing where they are. We also played where you can write riddles.
So my sister and cousin Louis hid, and Rose and I went to find them.
We pretty much lost them for like 2 hours.
We couldn't find them because first their arrows pointed to the sewer.
I was like "No way."
And then I stooped down and was like "Hello ... hello ... hello??"
Rose was like "Dude, they're not down there."
So we finally find more arrows, but it takes a while. After the longest trip around the neighborhood following tons of arrows, we find them.
Behind some bushes.
I bet our neighbors are like ... "HUH?!" Because we left a ton of arrows and riddles all around.
That's just us.
Naturally weird.
so this was a weird post.
Laterzz

Van
P.S.: Sorry if you dont like this post. It was incoheriant, SORRY D:

:) (Check out last post if you haven't) :p

and 8. The Batman
7. Evel Knievl (however it's spelling idk)
6. Xcaliber
5. The ninja
4. The screaming eagle
3. Superman tower of power
2. Mr Freeze
1. The boss
From the Myth Master's Team's Desk.....
I'm feeling like a star, you can't stop my shine
I'm loving cloud nine, my head's in the sky
I'm solo,
I'm ridin' solo,
I'm ridin' solo,
I'm ridin' solo
Soloo
-Solo Jason Derulo.
If you haven't heard that song, look it up. It's my song of the day. It just makes me happy.
Anyway, it's the last day of school, and I can't even believe I made it through the year. It's true, at the service at the end of the day I was crying for Amber.
I was hugging her and walking at the same time, and this dude Ethan is like "Oh my God."
And I'm just like "Shut up, Ethan."
And he's just like "No, you shut up."
Then I'm like "No, you shut up."
LOL, but I'm actually happy. For Amber.
After school, I went to Six Flags, and for you who don't know what that is-it's the most amazing place for roller coasters ever!!!
Everyone said they were going after school, but we didn't see anyone, besides my friends Matt and David. Shout out for them, they're awesome! :D
So, the pics above (I had issues for some reason trying to move them down last time, so just live with them up there) are all the things I went on.
The scariest was the boss, and you wouldn't think, but it's 1. wooden 2. you get jerked around a lot so you think you're going to fly out 3. there are a million drops, circles, and it's fast.
Mr. Freeze-a shout out to everyone who's been on it-if you've been on Mr. Freeze you are not a roller coaster wimp. It's about 70 mph. One part about coasters that are the creepiest parts, is when you're just sitting in the car waiting for something to happen. In the Freeze, you just burst out really fast. Then, you go straight up, stay there for a second, then fall back down and do everything again backwards. I love it! Only bad thing is that it's super fast, David timed it with his phone, it's 48 seconds.
Ze Tower of Power-now a shout out to Amber, who went on this when she was six-
D:
It's just you climb up slowly, then you drop. I lost my stomach, like it flew up. I didn't throw up LOL it was just a weird feeling.
The screaming eagle-it's basically going up .... and then dropping. It's fun :D but, I never knew why it was called screaming eagle, but I now know. When you go fast, the tracks make a screeeeeeching sound like an eagle's cry.
It's actually a really good name LOL
The ninja-wow, that was wasn't scary. Worst part is that your head jerks around a lot. Another shout out to Sean (Kingston) who I saw there-you're awesome and ghetto!
Xcaliber-it was fun, spinning a lot. You can feel gravity pulling against you. During the ride, their were some technical difficulties, during the ride, with balancing. David was like "OH MY GOD" But I told him they were kidding.
They weren't.
Evel whatever-it was named after some daredevil dude, and it was kind of risky. Wooden, super fast. Really fun, I had my hands up, (they're playin' my song :D)
The batman-with your legs hanging out it just adds to the fun. Upside down, baby!
Well, that's all for today. It's been an amazing day, and now I'm going to drive-in movie night to see my band of four play.
I don't know why. I'm just so happy right now.
Final shout out to Amber again-I love you girl, you'll be a rockstar at the new school!
Lots of Love,
Van

Oh my GOODNESS. And epic pictures!












rawr. Isn't that tight?





Oh my god, what the heck is that???









From the Myth Master's Team's Desk.....






Tomorrow is the last day of school, and I'm going to have to tell you about that later.




I mean, I am so happy to be finished with tests and homework, and oh the DRAMA! but there's a little part of me that will miss it




But a little part.




Like Amber switching schools.




So today, we basically cleaned out our homeroom desks and lockers, and tomorrow is basically saying Goodbye school, hello Summer




I used to love it.




Not this year.




I got signed out of school right before lunch, and so I even missed Amber's last lunch with me. So that was kind of sad.




But it's a happy sad feelingof course. I've been over this




~~~~
kay, done with the sadness-here are some random pics of this year! (some above)





is is what chalk does to your pants D: well ... it's all good. Just babysitting my cousins. Like the laces?





beastly right? It's in the city :D




well lol. That's it.

I'm taking a Short Sabbaticle

From the Myth Master's Team's Desk.....

Hi all.

First off: I only have 5 days left of my school. (Can you believe that?? FIVE MORE DAYS!!) To cherish the very last moments with the friends I have there, I'm taking about a week and a half break from blogging.

Second: Since school is over I have to talk about summer. I will be going on Wizard101, and blogging less, because well, it's summer. Would you rather stay in a dark computer room chatting with complete, or be outside swimming, and playing out in the sun with your real life friends.

Ya I know.

Third: Since I'm going to a new school, it'll be challenging. Even though I'm going to love it there, I'm gonna miss all my friends. I'm still gonna keep in touch don't you worry!! But, since there's like double homework, I have to you guessed it blog less, and go on Wizard101 less.

But hey, it's either that or quitting blogging. I'm going with option 1 thank you very much.

So while I'm enjoying my short sabbaticle, have fun blogging, and playing Wizard101.

Cya,

-Amber

P.S. Allan, glad to see you back in the Blogsphere!

I was put in timeout?

From the Myth Master's Team's Desk.....
...interesting day at school.
So we have the Wednesday News, basically paper that no one cares about or reads. Basically we throw it away.
It's given to the youngest or only, so I pick up the papers, and this evil, twisted, ugly, awful, HORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBLE guy Sam says, "Poke," and pokes me in the back
I roll my eyes at him, and my teacher says, "Oh Ms., quit it with the attitude."
So Sam and Ben, who was behind Sam, were like, "Yeahhhhh," and Ben was laughing at me too.
So I was just like, "Shut up, Ben."
And my teacher is like OOOOOO: "DID YOU JUST SAY SHUT UP?!?!" (she's partly kidding)
And I'm like "yeah ..."
And she's like "You have a 12 minute time out!"
Ben was just like, "Now go, sit in the corner."
So I did.
After 12 minutes my teacher was like, "So do you know why you were in trouble?"
Me: "Yes?"
Her: "Now say you're sorry."
Me: "I'm sorry Ben for telling you to shut up?"
Her: "YAY!!"
It was entirely weird.
On a different note, Amber was going into Social Studies as I was coming out, and she was trying to talk to me, and then Mr. Coco blows the whistle. It's soo loud and I was like right next to him so I had a small heart attack.
Whew. It's stressful, I have bad hearing already.
Next, to refer to my comments: Kestrel, it's not really a nerd school, this school Amber wants to go to, but it does have really good academics. And Amber has told me it's actually $14,000.
Big dif, it's still WAY to much money for me to ever attend. So I shall go to my wonderful school.
When I say wonderful I mean it sucks.

~Van~

P.S. Hum ... Hum Hum Hum Hum (teehee!!)
P.P.S. Kestrel get on w101! D:

So Much To Do!!

From the Myth Master's Team's Desk.....
So much to do!
As my friend Kestrel says in her blog 'I'm such a worrywort.'
Yeah, me too.
There's a Latin test on Tuesday, Literature (chapters 8, 9, and 10) and Religion (On a MILLION things) tests on Wed., Latin test on Thursday, Latin (posssiiibbblllyy) and Science on Thursday. Right now, I'm studying for an exam ... it's on everything we've learned from the past 9 months.
So gahhh!!!!! I'm cramming in studing and note taking in all hours possible. It's stressful. I mean, there are only 9 days left in school (for me-SUCKAS)... Don't we deserve a break?
Honestly.

Anyhooo, the end of school-that's something I have to talk about.
I've been waiting 9 months for this-summer couldn't come ANY faster.
But now, I'm actually kind of worried about Summer ...
Amber and I will not be attending the same school after this year.
I know!! When I heard about it, I was devestated. After this year, everything will be different. I knew that before, but I thought it could be a little easier if Amber was there too. But, she's going to a $16,000 school with awesome academics, laptops, swimming pools, and tons of school activities.
Though, of course, I am extremely proud of her.
She made it in-it's fairly hard to get into! You must have a 70% or higher on this test we take in the beginning of the year-I.B.'s-and other testing and interviews to overcome.
This really is the best thing for her, and I couldn't be happier~she's entering a whole new world.
You'll be reading this-and I'm proud of you, girl =] I don't like you talking about it because you know I'll miss you so much!
Anyway, that doesn't mean we won't see each other. During the summer, I'll be very busy with swimming, but that doesn't mean she won't come to my meets, laser tag, etc.

Now away from that subject...it's emotional. LOL
So I'm practicing my own stunts a lot now-using excerise balls for support for back handsprings, chairs for aeirals, (Well, trying). My mom is kind of freaked I will kill myself.
What should I try next?

Ciao.

Or should I say Vale.

Tenure For Dworgyn


From the Myth Master's Team's Desk.....

Ok so here's my Tenure For Dworgyn Speech.

*ahem*

WHY DWORGYN SHOULD HAVE TENURE

By: Amber StarGem

I think Dworgyn should have tenure, because he helped all students with, many things. Without him, we would have to release our "inner darkness" on the Unicorn Statues. Dworgyn, after Malistaire went *POOF* and turned evil, it was up to him to bring all necromancers, and part death people, to death spells, and not letting the school die out.

I mean look out Ambrose, he knows all about Astrael Magic, and he's not saying ANYTHING, about it. While Dworgyn, taught all of us he knows about Death magic, while AMBROSE is Headmaster, and Dworgyn is just an Assistant.

Malistaire's DEAD, for Pete's sake! Shouldn't Dworgyn get death position, now that Malistaire is DEAD?? That's like Moolinda Wu, still being assistant, after Sylvia died. It's not fair right?? No it's not. So why should DEATH, the heart and soul, pretty much of this game, be jipped out of this honor??

I have no very clue.

So,

TENURE FOR DWORGYN NOW!

-Amber
