The Party Thread

[Tundra]

:D well, NiH is all decked out in its party best. (what? It can wear green on its birthday! A nice, baby green... aw. isn't it cute! I decided to dress it in something gender neutral) And, one year ago today, I signed up with freebb, and created NiH. It didn't have such a good start, in fact, I almost gave up. I had no clue what I was doing. Sort of like my own birth actually! I honestly can't believe it made it this far.
So... this is... the party thread! :D Happy First Birthday NiH! Or, Happy First Anniversary, if you see it that way.

:bday:

[Elski]

Yay! *admires the party clothes* Here, I come bearing cookies. (Anyone surprised?)

[Jenevieve]

Yay! Happy birthday, NiH!

The party clothes came as quite a surprise, I must say.

[Tundra]

At least it's not wearing it's birthday suit!
(ie, 'subsilver' lol)
oh, and Philip (the one on the left, look at his little eyes) and the other kitten have temporarily grown a bit older and are wearing partyhats! yay!

[merrihart]

Doh! I posted about the color change, didn't see this thread till too late. *looks sheepish* sorry.

Happy Birthday NiH!

[Aimless]

Shouldn't we all get party-hats? :P

[Tundra]

hey yeah, if anyone else wants to 'party up' their avatar (extra 'points' if it's related to your current avatar) go ahead!

[Jenevieve]

I shall do that once I get home, I think.

[vindemiatrix]

Happy birthday, Vindie!

...I MEAN NiH, of course. It's not my fault I got confused. The dates are too close together!

Well, I'm just dropping in with the Marmite sandwiches and punch to say hi. I'm still in England and I'm not back till Sunday, so I miss the NiH party, but a very happy birthday to Notebook In Hand anyway!

NiH is an Aries. :o

[Maulden]

YAY NIH PARTY!

*passes frapps around*

[Emperor]

PARTY YAY

empeorr looks for his evil party hat

[flutelet]

Yeah, yay for NiH's first birthday!!!! :D

I'll go dress up my avatar in a minute.

[pkgirl]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NiH!!!

i like the new party look :)

and who is grateful that it DID actually make it this far??

i know i am

[Sulis]

I really like the color scheme, actually... Nice and soothing. The purple has more energy, but this is pretty.

[Elski]

I tried to dress up my avatar, but the site is being mean. :(

[Tundra]

^ you'll have a while to do it.
It's because birthdays aren't attached to this skin, but, somehow it still knows it SHOULD have a birthday! So, i'm very sorry about that.
Anyway. Back to partying.
*pffweet*

[WalkingDictionary]

*sings "Happy Birthday" in a very out-of-tune tone*

Such a nice, fresh, "spring-y" (not to be confused with "springy") green. I like NiH's new birthday attire. :D

I just took this photo! If we all take pictures of ourselves partying, it'll be like we're all in the same room! (or, easier to imagine anyway!)

[felixia]

I totally have a partied up avatar. Waiting.

*pulls out bowl of chips*
Yay, party! Yay, NiH! Yay!

[Emperor]

annus mirabilis

[pkgirl]

i offer celebratory Chocolate cAke for everyone

[Nayza]

*stumbles in late* Woohoo!

I brought my traditional special occasion gift...Non alchoholic Champagne! ten bottles! For us youngsters and non drinkers. *cracks open a bottle and pours a glass* Ahh...nothing better than watching it fizz up in your glass...it just shouts "special occasion!"

Music anyone? :D #Oooh You're always there when I need you most (except when I can't log in), I love yoooouu! We love yooou! Nih forever!#

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIH!

[Tundra]

^ *dances*

[felixia]

Non-alcoholic champagne! *sips*

*hic*

*Glares at *hic* Nayza*

Because that made sense.

Woo, party! *Jumps onto dance floor*


(The asterisks! Aaagh!)

[Nayza]

*grin*

I'm not on a suger high, or drunk (it IS non alchoholic)...but I would just love to yell from the rooftops...I LOVE NIH AND ALL ITS MEMBERS :D *cough*
Croissants?

[LadyAbby]

*Comes in with a big huge box!* Happy birthday baby NiH! Have a present! Tundra, you'll have to open it for it I think....
*Dances in glee in a brand new party dress*

[Tundra]

thanks!
*takes present, somehow holds NiH on her lap, and opens the present. Loook NiH! look at the pretty cellophane... NO, don't put it in your mouth!*
What is it?

[Nayza]

wohohoo! Looks expensive! *hides the fact that all she brought was cheap non-alchoholic plonk*

[Nayza]

http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c296/Nayza/nihlove.jpg

This is me partying, the balloon says "Happy B'day NIh, love Nayza"

The bottle in the background is my non alchoholic ;)

[AXJ]

Signing in... from a foreign continent no less... to say HBD to NiH! :D :D

[wannabe_writer]

Happy birthday NiH!!!!
#1--- we'll all be doing this again in a year... 8)

[Maulden]

Ack, I can't find my party hat! :(

*blows on his weird noise-maker thingy instead*

[limegreen19]

NiH looks cute in it's new outfit. Don't spill this chocolate icing on it!

*Gives chocolate iced cupcakes*

:bday:

[WalkingDictionary]

*puts on party hat* Woo hoo!

*gives NiH its very own pet Walking Dictionary* Don't worry; it won't bite. It's the Walking Encyclopedias you have to worry about... :shock:

[Tundra]

Nayza, I love the party picture! :D

[Nayza]

*grin* I have more, coming soon ;)

[LadyAbby]

In ten minutes...I shall reveal the NiH gift.

[Elski]

*lurks near the walls*

I'm not so good at this party thing...

[Wilwarin]

*lurks near the walls*

I'm not so good at this party thing...
Neither am I. My avatar isn't even in fancy dress... :?

[jomaca]

Yay! A party! Where's the food?

EDIT: My avatar isn't too good...I'm not one for modifying images :(

[Ariella]

Ack I'm so late but happy first birthday, Notebook In Hand!

'Twas a year of AWESOME and seriously?you guys pulled me through a lot this year. <3!<3, I say! <3!

[Nayza]

*sigh* what would we do without NIH? *sings her NIH song*

[Emperor]

sory, i am late. party?

[Sammi]

:)

*sigh* what would we do without NIH? *sings her NIH song*
We would get lives. :? Hope that never happens. *sings her Doom Birthday Song of NiH (like the Doom Song, but with added lyrics respecting NiH's birthday)*

I'll birthday-up my avatar, and post it tomorrow.

[Elski]

*lurks near the walls*

I'm not so good at this party thing...
Neither am I. My avatar isn't even in fancy dress... :?
Yay, we can be wallflowers together.

[Maulden]

*lurks near the walls*

I'm not so good at this party thing...

Yay, we can be wallflowers together.

Or you can volunteer to be the test subjects for my latest batch of experimental frapps... *cackles* :twisted:

But really, it's good. And if nobody drinks them, it'll be a waste of frapps. :P

[Elski]

*contemplates* Sure, why not. *takes a frappe*

[Wilwarin]

Sure, I'll try most things once. *takes offered frapp* Mmmm this is good... where did you get your recipe Maulden?

[Wilwarin]

Yay, we can be wallflowers together.
Yes my avatar can be a wallflower flower... :? :wink:

[Elski]

A very sparkly wallflower. Very nice.

[Wilwarin]

A very sparkly wallflower. Very nice.
Tee hee thank you... it's my corsage... :roll: cos I was told once that you can never be overdressed, you can only be underdressed... 8) and I think Vindie's party is the perfect excuse to get dressed up, don't you... :wink:

[Maulden]

where did you get your recipe Maulden?

My mom taught me her recipe when I was 14 and I've been modifying it over the past 5 years. 8)

A very sparkly wallflower

...is the best kind. :mrgreen:

[pkgirl]

What would we do without NiH? well we would be very bored, actually have to go outside every so often, and have to get lives :) (well unlike those who are already dead, but are in human disguise) DAMN my secret is out :(

and thanks for the Frappe

[Emperor]

who need lives. people always hate them

[Wilwarin]

A very sparkly wallflower

...is the best kind. :mrgreen:
Aww thank you... I'd dance with you, but I can't dance!! (My bf wouldn't get jealous if I did... I don't think... :? ). So, having said that, I shall remain a wallflower, drinking my frapp and admiring everyone else's dance skills. :P

[Elski]

Pft. These days you needn't know how to dance, to dance. It's more about... swaying, in rhythm.

*sways, in rhythm*

[jomaca]

I'm a very shy person and I hardly attend parties...so that's my excuse for being really late. Erm...where's the food?

By the way, I love the new look! Oh yeah...

HAPPY FIRST B'DAY, NiH!!!

[Maulden]

I want to tango! :mrgreen:

[LadyAbby]

Oh I love dancing Maulden! I'll tango with you!

[snooze]

I learned how to dance from Bollywood movies...

*claps her hands and dances anyhow*

[Jenevieve]

W00t! Partay! Too bad I've never partayed before.... I think I'll join the other wallflowers cowering by the wall. I have, however, dressed up my avatar.

[Maulden]

Oh I love dancing Maulden! I'll tango with you!

Yay! *dances*

[LadyAbby]

what a great song to dance to! *lowers eyes saucily at Maulden*

[Maulden]

Ehehehe... yes, I think so too.

:oops:

[LadyAbby]

*twirls skirt in a flirty manner* yes, it's a good song. ;)

[Tundra]

we need more party pictures in here. :) who has a digital camera?

[jomaca]

I learned how to dance from Bollywood movies...

*claps her hands and dances anyhow*

:lol: *starts dancing to Mahi Ve from Kal Ho Na Ho*

[theNightingale]

Oh I'm latelatelate!! :( Booo for no computer access at random hotels. But I guess a belated well-wishing will have to do...HAPPY FIRST, NIH!!! :cel: :band: :cel: <-- It's the birthday band! :D

Ooh yay. And nice coloooorrsss, Tundra! Puuurdy. Woot, now I shall celebrate further by catching up and posting!


(PS. Okay, when I left I was a tad bit ahead of you, Maulden...how are you almost to a thousand?!?!?!?! *awe & envy*) Hmmph. WELL. We'll just see about THAT. :wink:

[Tundra]

^ the celebrations will continue for a while longer, so it's all good! :)

[Wilwarin]

Would you feel better if I sent you my experimental frappuccino recipe? :mrgreen:

[Nayza]

Good party guys, But don't be afraid to dance! What ARE we going to do with all these wallflowers?

*pours herself a glass and stumbles onto the dance floor, dancing the macarena to 'goodbye my lover'* oohhh yeah! In rythm here baby!

[Tundra]

^ that non alcoholic drink is giving you such confidence Nayza!
*drinks a really sugary drink and gets hyper*
YAY OLD MUSIC!!! :D

[Wilwarin]

Good party guys, But don't be afraid to dance! What ARE we going to do with all these wallflowers?

*pours herself a glass and stumbles onto the dance floor, dancing the macarena to 'goodbye my lover'* oohhh yeah! In rythm here baby!
I have to say that your title right now Nayza (Dance for me! Dance!) is absolutely perfect for what you just said!! 8)

[Nayza]

;) Good observation!

And tundra, that non alchoholic drink has made me confident hasn't it? So has the large glass bowl of mixed lollies and chocolate covered sprinkles...I mean sprinkle covered chocolates... :o

*continues to dance widley to slow songs*

[Tundra]

^ is it wrong i've got a picture of you dancing around in that feather boa, but like Vince's "hedgehog dance"?

[Nayza]

[jomaca]

[LadyAbby]

Karaoke time!

[Elski]

Ooh, Karaoke! *has fond karaoke memories*

[Maulden]

Yay, karaoke! Now if only I had a good singing voice... :P

[felixia]

You can suck at singing and still rock at karaoke! (You just won't get discovered by a music....person)

*proves her point with a garbled 'NiH Themesong'*

[Maulden]

"You raaaaise me uuup, so I can stand on mounnnntaaaaiiins..."

*gets chased off by people throwing chopstick wrappers at him*

[felixia]

:shock:
I stand corrected.
Ha, ha. *throws a chopstick wrapper*

[LadyAbby]

"We are one, but we are maaany. And from aaaall the lands on earth we come. We share a dream and sing with one voice, I am you are we are Australian!
I stood upon the rocky shore, I watched the tall ships come, for forty thousand years I'd be the first Australians. I came upon the prison ships, bowed down by iron chains. I cleared the land, endured the lash and waited for the rain....."
my turn!


(suuuuch a good song!!!! makes me wanna convert to Australianism)

[Tundra]

"You raaaaise me uuup, so I can stand on mounnnntaaaaiiins..."

*gets chased off by people throwing chopstick wrappers at him*

haha... we had to sing that for Carol's by Candle light! We had the descant over this guy... 'you lift me ooo oooo... stand on mountains oooooo ooooo sea! I am strong... ooo oooo something something be...'

[sillypants]

...... makes me wanna convert to Australianism

Hehe, makes it sound like a religion! Or a creepy cult....

[Elski]

...... makes me wanna convert to Australianism

Hehe, makes it sound like a religion! Or a creepy cult....

Are you entierly sure it isn't?

[LadyAbby]

I'm fairly certain that it is. I had this chat with Tundra once. Frank Woodley and Colin Lane are the leaders of this religious movement.

[Tundra]

yeah, it's back to purple, but I had to, because bbcentral (Chris) has to do some upgrades.

[Wilwarin]

Just wanted to add a w00t for NiH - according to the counter on the front page we have 250 registered members!!! 8)

[sillypants]

I'm fairly certain that it is. I had this chat with Tundra once. Frank Woodley and Colin Lane are the leaders of this religious movement.

Lol, that would be the coolest thing ever!!!
