   The lined paper with the blue hearts is mine!!  Omigosh it says who I like!  Eeeek!

   Didn’t Amanda used to make those weird paper models all the time?  Origami, I think it’s called….

   Anyway…

   The slightly messed up origami crane is mine, actually. Sitting in bio class is so boring that the only way I can stay awake is to make cranes. Ugh.

   The flower isn’t mine though. I’ve made flowers before, but never in orange.

   OMG! I always knew that janitor was a creeper. The pink note which is folded is mine too. I always fold my notes that way and that note i sent to my best bud.I cant believe he found it and read what was in there. me and my friend actually had a fight over who lost it. you know what, i have a constitutional right of privacy and he just broke it.

4. noraorchid 05.08.2009

   ok…..thats all great that we found your notes and everything…....but can we try to foucs on Amanda….......its a little more important then who you guys like…......no offense…...cause i would be freaking out too, but can anyone think of a way that these notes can help us…..is there anything that anyone wrote on any of those notes that could help us?

   I see plenty of photos. Did Nia look at the photos? There might be some evidence in those photos.

   I think that postcard on the side of Ghirardelli Square might be mine….. I lost it a while back…..

   Slimester Stan is a freak. He’s collecting all our pass notes.
   I think some notes belong to Amanda. Did Nia see anything
   connected to Amanda? She does like paper folding, maybe
   it belong to Amanda.

7. themidnighter 05.09.2009

   Wait I just noticed something. Is that a necklace, by the
   orange origami? It looks kinda vintage, and we all know Amanda
   loves vintage. Does it belong to her?

8. theresaax2 05.09.2009

   In science, all Amanda used to do was make those exact flowers. I’m not saying its definitely hers, but that’s exactly the kind she makes every week. Anyone want to go back and open it?

9. dem_94 05.10.2009

   The necklace kind of looks like a class ring on a chain. Girl’s used to wear their bf’s rings on a necklace 20-30 years. Maybe Amanda took her father’s ring and wore it around. She would do something werid like that, don’t you think?

10. themidnighter 05.10.2009

    It doesn’t look like a ring to me.
    I think it’s something that can be opened.

11. Rosie 05.10.2009

    OMG!!! The picture of the cat is mine!!! Why would he have the picture of my Angus in his stash?? And his dirty-janitor hands have been on it too… *ick*
    And on the topic of the “ring on a chain”... iunno, I think it looks more like a locket… I wonder whose picture is in there??

12. themidnighter 05.11.2009

    Yeah a locket that has a picture of someone maybe her parents?

13. aGirlLikeMe 05.11.2009

    Do you guys hear that the last munchin that had played in the Wizard of Oz movie died? Pretty sad.

    Anywho, I think the necklace is definitely Amanda’s. It seems like something she would wear though I really think it is a ring that is attatched to it. A BFF ring could be it, yes, and it also could be her father’s ring as someone said. I wonder what’s on the front of it. A symbol? Did you, Nia, take any other pix?

    The school picture can’t be Amanda’s because she came on Halloween and we took school pictures on October 13th. Whose pic is that?

14. Kewpie83 05.11.2009

    Nia, Callie, thanks for checking this out!  Now that I know it’s not just a rumor, I’ll be keeping a close eye on my old notes.  Ewww.  It makes me shudder thinking he *really* saves them. 

    The ring on the necklace stands out to me.  And you know, with Amanda, it might not even be a family heirloom.  She could have just found it and thought it had a good vibe or something (like her keys) and decided to keep it.  It definitely screams Amanda, to me, anyways!

    Is that a postcard in the back of the box?  Where was that from?  Amanda moved around a lot, so that could be connected to her, unless someone can claim it…

15. urban_hippie 05.11.2009

    Mine is actually the butterfly. The purple butterfly. Wow. I actually wrote a secret on that. I hope no one reads it. It was just meant to set the secret free. What else is in that box? I’m so intrigued.

16. noraorchid 05.11.2009

    the locket might be rele important…... it might contain a clue that could help us…

17. kimberly 05.12.2009

    I think that it’s creepy that he’s keeping all of these notes, but if we wan’t to find anything out we’ll need to get in there and take some…Even if we just take,like, one at a time right before school ends and bring it back in the morning then we could get a closer look at either, what Amanda wrote, or at what the Janitor is keeping. I didn’t see the note I passed to my boyfriend (which he lost) and that was on Monday…so shouldn’t it be at the top? Maybe the janitor is creepy, but he may be smarter, or bumber, than he appers…

18. stef_stone 05.13.2009

    The orange flower is mine..it was a note confiscated that I wrote to Amanda. Maybe they were all passed by Amanda or to Amanda???? They all seem to be folded in interesting ways…

19. noraorchid 05.13.2009

    hmmmm interesting…...maybe the janitor knows something about Amanda that we don’t…..maybe he is involved in this somehow…...

20. kimberly 05.14.2009

    You know those bunkers that used to be used to store recycling before our school got those ginormus metal boxes for the trash? well I allways see the janitor going in there, even though there isn’t supposed to be anything left in there so maybe he is hiding something in there? He seems like he’s pretty smart…ish

21. noraorchid 05.14.2009

    ok…..this might be a long shot but mayeb Amanda is working with him…..???

22. stef_stone 05.16.2009

    Maybe..the vice principal also has access tothe closet and he is a mysterious character that could be involved with Amanda.

23. stef_stone 05.16.2009

    Hey, I just realized one of them is a postcard for a town called Ghiradelli!

24. stef_stone 05.17.2009

    Maybe that is where Amanda was going?

25. Shadoughes. 05.18.2009

    what does the blue paper with the stars say?
    just at the bottem i can read know where you are, can anybody make out the rest?

26. Shadoughes. 05.18.2009

    this is a complicated clue, it has so many possibilites, some one has to check the notes, but how? there’s so many!

27. Shadoughes. 05.18.2009

    does anyone rember seeing that necklace in there, on Amanda?

28. stef_stone 05.18.2009

    yes! she bought it with me at the vintage store! i wonder how it got in there?

29. dem_94 05.20.2009

    I blue paper with the stars on it says ‘You know who you are’.

    I wonder what that meansa nd and who wrote it. Hmmm…

30. stef_stone 05.21.2009

    Maybe a note for someone…hm.

31. Gracie_Hayes 05.24.2009

    the picture of the brown-haired girl on the bottom is mine. amanda actually gave it to me! it was a picture of a girl at her old school who she thought had really good style.

32. noraorchid 06.03.2009

    hmmmmm anyone know who wrote the note that says “you know who you are”

33. alicewriter13 08.30.2009

    There isn’t just passed notes in there….someone needs to go back and check it out some more…  To anyone who has notes in there.. were they in any relation to Amanda, any at all, even if it was just she was in the class you lost it or passed it…  it may all be connected

34. Emily.K 09.21.2009

    Heyyy, the one that says PULL, I wrote that one! It was a note with Amanda, and it was about Josh… And a few other things, but I can’t remember. It was important though, and he was mad for a whole five seconds when I lost it. I dropped it on my way to Swimming Class.

35. tiffany923 09.23.2009

    one of those notes is mine! i wrote it to amanda in chem. lab. i think those are all amandas notes! i asked her about thee creepy note that she got that one day in trig.
    she didn’t answer right away, just sat there staring at the note, then after class, she tossed it into the trash, but missed. i thought about picking it up, but i was late for french, and figured the janitor or mr hill, the chem. teacher would pick it up. i guess the janitor is a stalker! maybe he wrote the note. maybe him and ms davis are in this together! i think he might know amanda from before she moved. is he fairly new? maybe he was her neighbor and she destroyed his rose garden. lol! someone should google that man!

36. marisunga 10.11.2009

    the blue one that says “you know who you are” is mine! Amanda gave it to me about a week before she disappeared. i told her i needed help with my friends because they didn’t like my boyfriend and my boyfriend did not like my friends so i had to choose so she gave me the note and told me that every star was for something good that would happen to me no matter who i chose. but i cant tell you what’s inside,i never got to read it, i lost it before i could even open it.

37. EmoCourtneyG 10.11.2009

    Those cant be ALL the notes from the whole school, or from the whole highschool even…  Maybe.. somehow all those notes are connected to Amanda…  They have to be, why else would the janitor get all defensive?  Yes, its a little werid that he would keep the notes, but maybe he knows that they’re from Amanda, maybe Amanda even gave him those notes, to keep safe…  Knowing sooner or later someone would say Nia should check there…  But ones things for sure…  Those CAN NOT be ALL of the notes…  Believe me, teenage girls and notes…  they go together really well…

38. EmoCourtneyG 10.13.2009

    The pink lined one is mine!  I just noticed! What the heck is it doing in there?!  It was from Amanda, i hadnt really talked to her all that much past her telling me my totem and maybe coming to my house once…  When she passed the note i kinda thought it was strange, but the teacher was walking around so i didnt open it..  I lost it that period, and i remember that janitor coming in during class and walking along the asiles picking up trash, maybe he picked up the note…  gosh, i wanna know what it says…

39. EmoCourtneyG 10.13.2009

    Okay, well, i cant be all that sure that its mine, but it sure looks like it!

40. Jess 10.13.2009

    guys, i know were that note came from, amanda wrote notes in the orphange when she got mad, she just wrote random stuff, but why did she keep them all??

41. EmoCourtneyG 10.14.2009

    You were at the orphange, werent you JessieC?  is there anything you can remember that she said, or hinted that?  Like maybe wanting to keep them for some reason…  Oh wait!  I might know why!  Amanda had a lot of journals, so many that she had a different one with her almost everyday…  she was always writing stuff down.  So maybe those notes were just early versions of her journals??  And the reason she kept them was because they meant something to her, maybe there is even a reference to some notes in her journals?  Does anyone have them or know where to find them?

42. littlebit478 10.16.2009

    oh my gosh i bet one of thouse is mine. it has the combo to the filling cabbnet in the main office! if only i could get that back…

43. Pookie 10.17.2009

    The picture of that cat is mine! I was showing it to my friend… There’s a locket in there too weird…

44. RRRules 01.27.2010

    Hey, Amanda had a thing with purple paper, no? I think that purple origami has a piece of something else purple stuck to it, but I can’t see well. Anyone?
    Hold that thought.
    If you zoom in on the blue paper with the stars, you know what it says?
    ” You know where/what
    you
    are
    ” Anyone else find this a little suspicious?

45. Coupe 03.08.2010

    Can any one suck up to the janitor and talk to him? Anyone with a secret is dying to tell someone, but not straight out just hint that you know something about it, right? So that janitor must be the gossip of the school. Someone in Endevor needs to talk to him, and just ease into a conversation about amanda. Scince you’re not accusing him of anything [like stealing notes] he’ll be more than willing to talk. Remember to totally suck up to him to get you on his good side. [Oh the bathrooms smeled extra fresh today! lol]
    btw, is the picture of the cat actually a cougar? [hal’s totem]

46. LearnToFly 05.09.2010

    I recognize some a few of those notes! That janitor is a creep!!
    In the bottom right corner.. it looks like there might be a page torn out from a magazine maybe??
    And, Coupe, I think that’s a picture of a household cat not a Cougar(:

47. Ralyat 05.22.2010

    Amanda showed me how to make that purple thing! We were in Trig and I was bored.She kicked my desk (i sit right behind her) and she started folding it.It did have something written on it and given amandas history, i tried to find out what but she kept it in her locker.then,i asked her about it one day and she said she’d hidden it somewhere,though i cant remember where she told me.but how to Slimester get ahold of the mysterious note i was looking for?.....

48. Basil_H. 06.27.2010

    We need to figure out how to get those notes. Is that stealing? I hope not. We should use decoys that we make. Any clues about Amanda will help. And… You didn’t happen to see an anonymous note to Terry Pine (the tall skinny boy in Jr. year that looks like a member of the Horrors) did you? I, uh, think I know who sent that, and then Sir Creepy Janitor That-needs-more-keys-so-we-can-hear-him-coming must have picked it up. I see the point about it nit being all the notes from the school, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t collect those, too. Or maybe he’s not as good as we think, and can only get so many, but I think it’s the former. Ahhh! I just thought. What if he has piles of kids’ notes at his house, and creepy stalker walls! Gosh, this is a scary thought. Who ever it is who talks to him had better have reinforcements nearby, and not follow him anywhere alone. If we do talk to him, yes; whoever does it will need to seem like they’re not particularly interested in him, and be very careful. We can do this! We do outnumber him, but perhaps we should assume he’s not alone. And let’s hope he can’t find this site… Slimester you creep!

49. catiemarie 07.27.2010

    The one that says pull confuses me. It doesnt actually say anything at all. You can turn in any way you want, and the letters will still be the wrong way around, or backwards, or upside down. And they are too dark to be written on the other side of the page. Mayb that means something…?

50. Basil_H. 07.27.2010

    You have to put it next to a mirror!! The LLUP one! (Pull)

51. AmberDavis 02.25.2011

    I think the necklace is more like a glass-type pendant set in a gold plated border. Hmm.
