The Friday Awards
Have you guys ever heard the song "Digital Get Down"? Every time we write The Friday Awards and check the "Digital" category box, we can't help but sing "Digital Get Down" in our heads. It's kind of a curse, actually, which is why we're really happy Sparkler villanous_mwaha wrote a different Friday Awards-ish song that we can play on repeat when 'N SYNC starts to make us 'N SANE:
To the tune of "My Heart will Go On"
Every night in my bed
I wait for
My parents to sleep,
Then to Facebook and Sparklife
I go on.
Read the posts, chat with the writers
All of my
New best friends
Off to Facebook and Sparklife
I go on.
Near, far
Wherever my Sparklers are
I just know that our friendships
Will go on.
Once, more
Your blogs have me filled with awe
And I know that my sisters
Will go on.
Beats "Digital Get Down," no? More Awards!:
The I Want Your Life Award goes to Kiwiatheart for this comment on the public school post...
I always wondered what high school was like in America, over here in Australia, I'm in Year 10 I start at 7:25 have four periods each 70 minutes long, morning tea in between at 10 and then finish school at 1. Its pretty good coz be have time to go to the beach or go shopping after school. Though the Year 8's and 9's start at 10:30 and finish at 4, i loved thoughs days, i never was sleep deprived coz i could sleep til 9:30 every day. But that's just my school, we have a pretty messed up schedule

"I'm sorry I have to be nice to you. It's 'Be Kind to Animals' Week."
That's my favorite!
...to badooney for this hilarious comment on public school life...
My freshman biology class was the most fun thing I've ever experienced because our teacher didn't do anything and was a little bit of a freak. He'd leave the room every five minutes and would sometimes stand on the radiator to look out those high windows near the ceiling because he was paranoid that someone was going to egg his car. We'd watch nature videos all the time and our assignment was to write down ten facts, but he'd never look at anything we handed in. One time my friend wrote "Lolz, Mr F. I don't know!" and got full credit! He left the room during our FINAL EXAM, so naturally we all chea-I mean...helped each other. When we told one of the administrators about him leaving she told us that as responsible students she would expect us to cheat if he was stupid enough to walk out. Ah, memories.
DIY-Chic Awards go to...
zella435 for this comment on the zit post...
You know what else works? Make a paste of baking soda and water then rub it on your face every day. That has worked better for me than anything.
...and to AvignonRebellion for this comment on the same post...
I became a chemist and started mixing products like peroxide, alcohol, something my doctor prescribed, and some other acne stuff. I scrubbed my face and applied my "mixture". 
A few days later, I examined my face and I had a patch on my forehead! My skin was clear there! I squeled with delight! I re-did my experiment and applied it all over my face. After a few weeks, my skin became super clear. (And yes, there might be a possibility of skin cancer in the long run - but who knows...heehee... )
Way to Gross Out Your Editors (Even Andrew, the editor no one knows about because he does lot of behind-the-scenes test prep and academic stuff) Award goes to cat3286 for...
Omg, whenever I am tempted to pop a zit that isn't ready, I go to popthatzit.com. You get the satisfaction from watching other people pop their zits without damaging your skin! [Note from Emma: DO NOT go to this site unless you want to feel really upset and queasy for hours.]
Nickname of the Week goes to SirGaga
The You Should Be an English Professor (or SparkNotes Writer) Award goes to cassieandra0101 for this comment interpreting the Dan drawing for the latest Blogging Eclipse...
I see it too. There are no bars on the back two sides of Bella's cage. There are two possible reasons for this.1. Dan was either lazy, or he decided that so many lines would confuse us and make our brains explode.
OR
2. Dan was making a statement. He was saying that, even without technically being imprisoned, Bella does not have the good sense of mind to walk out of her cage and out of Edward's life. It is entirely possible, also, that she likes being imprisoned. She puts herself in situations and around people that are going to cause her trouble because she enjoys being rescued... The Port Angeles bit in the first one, and all her cliif-jumping and motorcycle-riding?
It's the cliched damsel in distress, and I'm sick of it. I wish she'd stand up for herself and become a strong, empowered female character.
Happy Birthday this weekend to AnnelaLauren
Le Prix goes to penguins_quack for...
The whole thinking up a comeback after you needed it that you mentioned at the start, they have a word for that in French, L'espirit D'Escalier. It literally means wit of the staircase and is so accurate. We've all been on that staircase. In fact, I live on that staircase.

The Magic Fingers Award goes to Kaitlynnjhs for this comment on the texting post...
Okay, so last month, I SENT over 6,000 texts. (thats not counting how many I recived). So, after so much practice, I can type out a message that is three times the 160 limit (I dont feel like doing the math there) faster than my Samsung Jack can make a call. So I disagree with #3.
The hahaha.wow.lol.omg.:) Award goes to smashley_may for this comment on the same post...
Reading number five reminded me of this one time i was texting someone and i said "heyy how you been?" and they said "hahahaha, im great! lol. nothing new with me hahaha.l ol how you been?"..that whole conversation was like that no matter WHAT i said! even if it was just "ok" they'd say "hahaha.wow.lol"..it is realy annoying
The Good Advice Award goes to pink_diamond6483 for this comment about public high school...
Yes, ALWAYS watch your backpack or it will be turtled by some idiot with nothing better to do. This guy in my AP Bio class got his backpack turtled 5 times in one class 50-minute period last week! I'm pretty darn sure that's the record!
Congrats, Friampions! How many Friday Awards do you have?
From our Partners!
