[scargirl133]

It's mind blowing that this is a year old.

[maggiehanna]

Ok so I've got a month...or three weeks...whatever. Is there still room on your wall for stuff Lauren?

[devilishlypure]

Of course! :D

[summergirl1219]

oh goodness...I must send you something...

now what should I draw? hmmm

[mrscrazykneese]

so exciting! Just made mine, will be going in the mail today. You're Awesome!

Lauren, You rock my socks AND my shoes!!!

[filibusterfirework74]

yes I will totally do it.

[Kobomiller]

thats the stupidest idea i have ever heard of!

[devilishlypure]

Wow, I feel special now!

[LisbryIsMe]

For the record, I don't even know if you've stopped taking the ones sent to you and putting them up. Can I still send one or is it too late? I feel like I'm sounding way too serious right now. It's creeping me out. Anyway that's all, promise. :D

[devilishlypure]

I don't know how much it would cost. Here it's anywhere from 1 to 5 US dollars to ship internationally. The best way to find out is to go to the post office and have them weigh something like what you'd be sending. They can tell you.

And yes, I'm still taking them and putting them up. Will be until February 2010.

[LisbryIsMe]

Ok, thanks. :) I'll see if I can check next week.

[LisbryIsMe]

I have a question. Since I hardly ever send, uhm, anything really, do you know how much it costs to send something over seas? From Europe that is. Or more specifically Norway, but I don't think that makes much of a difference. I could probably find out by myself, but I'm lazy. I'll understand if you don't know or don't answer. I'd love to try and make something though, even though I can't guarantee any success. Right. Love you're wall so far! Kudos to everyone who's helped decorate!

[PearlJammer07]

[posthumorously]

Okay! :D All drawn and enveloped. You should have it by Friday!

[posthumorously]

I made a video about not knowing what I'm capable of drawing for you.  XD Do you like cats? I can draw cats...

[devilishlypure]

Yeah! Cats are awesome!! :D

[BreanaMurphy]

We are paying attention to what you're saying, but we choose to comment on something other than that. It's still important though.

[LAshlieH]

Hey Lauren,

I drew you a picture for your wall and put it in the mail today (Monday) so it should be there on Wednesday-ish...maybe?

I hope you like it. I was going to make a video response too, but my camera and my computer don't agree with each other at the moment, hopefully it'll get put up sometime though.

-Lauren

[HermioneKenobi1]

I'm going to send you something from Spain!!!! Have you ever been here?

[ByTheBook2010]

One more question :)

Do you like Disney? If so any fave characters?

(I have a knack for Disney :)

[devilishlypure]

Haha, yes! Disney is awesome. I love Eeyore!

[Silver1226]

I am just taking mine to the post office now, they should be there Tuesday or Wednesday ^__^

[blueberg75]

[HPPirates]

I've got 2 index cards to send out tomorrow :]]

[FruitsBasketKisa]

If I don't send you something myself, I hope to see something about Snape and Lily in the background :)

[Futuredudeman]

Six car trips later, I have a picture, an index card which I have put it on, and an envelope to mail it in.

...

Now where the hell are my stamps?!

[neeshaknowsall]

o.k., I wrote a letter, ACK WHAT WILL I PUT ON THE CARD?!?!?!?!?

Must get creative juices flowing. O_O

[ChappStickMan]

I'll send you something GREEN! :D

[jeffrags2]

Jeff from Snapecast

[devilishlypure]

I LOVE SNAPE! Thank youu! :D

[prettypnkduck001]

I am sending you something for your wall

[EPICoriginality]

I've finished my card and video taped the different steps of making it. It should be in the mail soon! : )

[JamesPotterROCKS]

I'm working on mine as I type this!! :) hope you like it...should be sent out sometime this coming week <3

[seacowisdank]

I just finished mine. It'll be in the mail Tuesday. :)

[ImperfectlyPerfect2]

[keepitontheDL11]

I'll be sending mine in on Tuesday!

[devilishlypure]

I just picked up the first week's mail from the post office! I love you guys... thank you so much for doing this for me! I'm starting to put them up now!

[paperweighted]

You can't miss mine; it's coming in a shiny silver envelope with plenty of packing tape ; )

[rangers1994fyi]

you go to elizabethtown?!!??!

[devilishlypure]

Yep!

[rangers1994fyi]

my friend just started going there !

[charlottepoet]

i wish i could draw :)

but great idea!

[devilishlypure]

You don't have to draw... you can arrange magazine clippings or something along those lines!

[frogswhatfrogs]

This is possibly the coolest idea ever! I've made mine today and will post them tomorrow :). They'll take about a week there from England though!

[diannaification]

Have you considered curtains?

[devilishlypure]

I don't really have a way to hang them, not even on my windows.

[ImAliveIam]

Oops. I you said horizontal. Still usable?

[devilishlypure]

I'm not really sure what you're asking.

[ImAliveIam]

Sorry. I mean, someone asked what direction you wanted them and you said horizontal. I'd already made a vertical one, that okay?

[devilishlypure]

Sure, I'll either find a way to make it look okay in the way I'm arranging them or just make it sideways on my wall.

[ImAliveIam]

Alrighty, I'll be sending several in the next day or two!

[Silver1226]

THis is super exciting, I need to go get a package of index cards, I am going to be hanging with my friends this weekend, and I am sure that will lead to some fun stuff ^__^

[ByTheBook2010]

I read through All the comments so I will not post anything about you "Amazing Cinderblocks", but I do have a question!

Which direction would you prefer, horizontal or vertical? that might help me decide what to send :)

[devilishlypure]

Horizontal, please!

Thank you for resisting to join the ranks of people trying to annoy the crap out of me because they don't notice that everyone is making the same joke.

[ByTheBook2010]

Thanks! :) I will get on this asap after my homework and stuff !

[jadeddryad]

i will be sending you my cards by monday at the very latest. i'm warning you right now though that i made one with your name on it....and misspelled it. i'm debating whether or not i'm actually going to send it.

[craisins95]

I sent mine out today so you should get it in a day or two!

[TheSailorGeek]

What was this video about? I'm sorry I was totally distracted by those gorgeous cinder-blocks.

[LikingThings]

HAHA! This made me laugh.

You're great.

[devilishlypure]

It made me laugh the first time someone said this. Fifteen times later, I'm much less amused.

[Laure91940]

C'est cool, je crois que je vais apprendre l'anglais grâce à toi ^^, en plus tu es marrante.

J'ai hâte de voir ce que les gens t'enverront =D.

[devilishlypure]

Moi aussi! :)

[whyattn]

mines done! :D ill pop it in the mail tommorow!

[yeahitsamenikki]

Thats so awesome! I'll be sure to try to send something crazy! =D

[periwinkleenigma]

I totally know how you feel, I moved over the summer so I got to re-decorate my room! I love starting fresh and being able to do whatever makes me feel at home

[flyingpigs1197]

What's your favorite animal?

[devilishlypure]

Manatee!

[orangelaundryload]

hi!

[arapanasati]

You might want to hire a temporary drug sniffer/bomb squad dog =]

[devilishlypure]

And that is why I paid for a PO Box address instead of giving out my own.

[LiamSonnyMike]

Ah, but that was my goal. I'm such a nice guy.

[LiamSonnyMike]

And yes, I am bored :D

[LiamSonnyMike]

Look, it's ugly Betty

[devilishlypure]

I can't waiiiiit for Season 4 to start up!

[MIIICHA3L]

LMAO

[LiamSonnyMike]

I dunno, who are you?

[devilishlypure]

It's all good. You're racking up my comment count, even if you're making an idiot out of yourself in the process.

[LiamSonnyMike]

How about the posters?

[LiamSonnyMike]

omg, did the walls die????

[devilishlypure]

Who are you?

[devilishlypure]

We're all going to die eventually. And not yet.

[chocolatefire]

what? i didn't get what you were asking... um, er. i was distracted by the fact you have some stark white (or cream to be more exact) walls behind you... you should fix that soon :)

i'm just kidding for those of you who don't get it... and maybe that's my fault bc my "joke" isn't funny. i can't wait to see all the artwork lauren. happy senior year!

[devilishlypure]

It's funny, you're just the fourteenth person to make the exact same joke based on something I said really annoyed me.

[chocolatefire]

my bad lauren. i'll get something in the mail soon. promise. the lame jokes are over! thanks for being so awesome and putting up with people like me :)

[devilishlypure]

Haha, thank you! I totally understand the urge to make lame jokes... I do it all the time. It was just getting to the point where so many people were saying the exact same thing that they needed to know.

[chocolatefire]

i went through your comments, you weren't joking about me being the 14th... my originality has failed me once again! shoot!

is there something you prefer over another for your wall-o-art... once again, probably a lame thing to say. i sound much cooler in my head than in youtube comments.

[devilishlypure]

Nope, anything is good! If you need inspiration, something youtube, music, harry potter, ukulele, or book related would be awesome, since those are some of the things I like a lot. I also like the color green a lot.

[ekrammarkee]

I will make a couple! Love the idea!

[etbitmydogucf]

I had a room monster situation too. My roommate had sex in the same room as me while I was sleeping. I know because I woke up. Bastard.

[musudi]

umbrellaseance greatest rapper alivw

[devilishlypure]

Sorry, I am actually the greatest rapper alive.

[kevlarorc]

that white, painted cinder block is fascinating! sorry, what were you saying? :D

[Griffonater]

hahaa

[devilishlypure]

Thirteenth person to make the exact same joke.

[owlssayhooot]

this was spotlighted! i just noticed by chance, haha. :) xx

[devilishlypure]

Hahaha weird!! They made a little description up for me too.

Thanks, Kayley! :D

[baobabtrees]

ohhhh yeah i wanna make you some stuff! i have index cards! you should put this up on 5ag too so hopefully you'll get lots and lots! or try i am bad a art.

[doobieupinsmoke]

WOW THANKS FOR THE BONNER

[OhSnapzicle]

Sending mine in tomorrow, just finished! :D

Just need to get more stamps.. darn international.. ;DD

[SantifyYoSelf]

Very cool!

I'll make one!

=]

[mat014foot]

Anyway, I'll try my best even if I'm never looking at the background when watching your videos!

Despite the fact that the idea is awesome, the important is not the cool background behind you. It's the personn just in front of it, giving it her personnality and making it look cooler ;-)!!

[XxDawlishxX]

Sent.

<3

[anadventurouskid]

hey that's a cool blank wall behind you! oh and i love your super exciting wooden door!

[devilishlypure]

Hey, eleven other people made this joke before you did!

[anadventurouskid]

Well, well, well.... I find the geometric pattern within the wood on your door aesthetically pleasing... Hey, in my defense, Matt Maggiacomo made the same joke. Can I still send a card?

[devilishlypure]

Yeah, but back when he made it, only one other person had made the joke. And he's my boyfriend so he's allowed. XD

Yes, you can still send a card! :D

[elliebiskeyy]

crud!!! I only have 3x5 cards. TO TARGET!!

[TheotherSmithgirl]

I just started college and my walls feel the same way, so I decided to help your walls. It will show up as soon as I get envelops and postage!

[jewel819]

i have a wonderful idea for one (:

i'm definitley sending it ^__^

[RandomJordo]

Cool Idea~!

[thecheesecakegirl]

I'll try to send one but it will take ages to get from England to America

[iLikeTheCrayons]

I have that shirt!

Sorry I know that doesn't have anything to do with anything but I had to say that...

I was listening to you, though!

lol.

I'll make a card!

[Somethingquiteclever]

Sadly, instead of talking about your posters, people will now spend their time commenting "hey, that's my card! She used my Card!! Hey, Lauren, thanks for putting up my card...etc."

But this is such a cool Idea, I'm off to think of something brilliant to put on a notecard. :)

[whataboutadam]

This is such a good idea Lauren! I'll have to think of something.

[devilishlypure]

Yaayy, thank you! :D

[wolfied16]

I am putting mine in the mail tomorrow, So you'll get in in a couple days or so after that! I sent several things so you can just pick your favorites if any!

[mat014foot]

Dear Lauren, you'll probably never answer me, but can you or someone tell me what is the European size for these posters?

I'll do my best to send you one thing....in French XD!!!!

xoxo

[anniekate76]

It's 4 by 6 inches, which works out to 10.1 by 15.2 centimeters.

[devilishlypure]

10.2 x 15.2 centimeters, I think!

That's so cool, thank you!! :D

[Gomezzio]

Hey, those posters ARE pretty cool...

[ThatFamousDorkyGirl]

i pay attention hehe to ur videos lol and i will deff help with your youtube background...lol <3 Much luv

[7chobbers7]

hmm... im thinking about something. but i dont want anyone to steal my idea

[JustifyingJacob]

idk

[kaylalalajayy]

awesommme:D im gonna make sumthinnn for you:)

[iliketoshake]

Thats such a great idea :D

[jamesgordonuk]

I would definitely be interested in helping out! HOWEVER: as I'm in the UK, and am a student, I don't really have the cash to spend posting stuff internationally.

Any chance we can email our 4x6's and you print them out at your end?

[devilishlypure]

Yeah, but I'm not sure how it'll look coming out of my printer.

[TheOrangeDream]

This sounds really cool! :D I will definitly try to make something, can't make any promises though. xD

[pyromaniacchica]

Oh I'll totally send you some designs.

[AnAbundanceOfKathryn]

I'm going to work on it tonight & tomorrow but it'll take a few weeks to get to you from rainy ol' England.

[bethhasablog]

Likewise.

Although I warn you Lauren my art SUCKS.

[MegTao]

Ohhh this is such a cool idea... I'd better get this done before school starts...

[aslanenlisted]

awesome!!! FANTASTICO

[HazzaPistheDocsBFF]

Ok, This is awesome Lauren. Totaly doing it. XD

[lunatunarox]

I'm just gonna make about ten of them and send them all in because that will look awesome!!!!!!!!!

[AdnarimLove]

ooOoO that sounds so cool! great idea!!

[offshoot7bam]

What are you going to college for?

I'll try to come up with something. :]

[jadeddryad]

dude i need to get some note cards like NOW!! i wanna play this game!!!!

[jadeddryad]

wait they don't have to be note cards? i can do 4" x 6" pieces of paper if that'll work lauren!!

[devilishlypure]

That would be great! Size matters way more than the material.

[Niphai89]

Hmm... I didn't really hear what you were saying, but I LOVE the white background!

jk xD

I'll see what I can do, but first I have to find that size paper xD

[NeRdPoTtErFrEaK13]

That sounds awesome!!! (And you would think people would just get used to the posters behind you if they watch your videos regularly. I mean, I have two of them in my room so I see them every day.) <3

[scentoflime]

this is a cute idea. i was gonna suggest get a green screen, but this is better.

[HPhorsegirl]

OOOOH! Did anyone see the shiny white wall behind her??? Soooo awesome.

:P Will definitely try to get something to you. :)

[KindaQuietGeekyGuy]

Yeah i did notice that you get a lot of comments about the movie posters

[jerryhcooke]

I should send you something from my wall! My wall to your wall <3

[kmckutie]

I am SO gonna send some! You can count on that. Aaaaaand I'll start when I get home from school, cos I have like 10 minutes to get there. Bye!

<333

[Fensterplaetzchen]

cool idea!!

you'll get a brazillian letters, I know it

[definitelyoverrated]

Sorry, I didn't really pay attention, I got distracted by that awesome white wall behind you. :)

[Fensterplaetzchen]

White walls are overrated.

Oder?

[S0cialGhost]

i'm no good at drawing but i will send you something. i'll try keep my colouring inside the lines. maybe a dinosaur. i'll call him mister rex or the rexonsonamour for his friends.

[cathal99h]

Sorry what were you saying? I couldn't concentrate, those blocks are just so distracting!

[ItsBenCracknell]

Okay, for my last commet, I commented before I watched the whole thing.

):

But anyway, I'M SO GOING TO SEND YOU SOME!

[ItsBenCracknell]

You should paint each block a different color.

OH OH! Like Joeseph!

[awesomegroenings]

Sry gave you 1* cause of the first seconds :/

[owlssayhooot]

oh, oh! I wanna send you some of my photos. you should go to my flickr and pick some out! :D <3

you're so cute.

[devilishlypure]

Aww, YAY! That would be awesome! I will later! :D Thank you, love!

[LailaLorestone]

Oh! I have an idea that I hope I can pull off! Will get to work on it soon!

[SenorLeviathan]

I couldn't find 4x6 notecards at the store, so I'm going to send in a couple of 3x5. I hope that's okay! Sorry. :[

Thank you for giving me another thing to procrastinate with. :DDDDD

[devilishlypure]

The size is more important than the material... please just cut out 4" x 6" pieces of paper or something! Yours won't fit with everyone else's... I wanted to line them up and if they're all the same size, that will look better. :)
