Omigosh, I am so excited right now!  It's only two more hours until the season finale for TrueBlood... *squeals*

Anyway, I don't have much more to say on the matter, other than that I have really high expectations.  But don't we all?  *claps wildly*

I promise that I will write an extensive review of the finale later this week.  So check back to see ( Read more... )

A few months ago I started writing a Merlin fan fiction story, Crown Prince and a Lady.  From the very beginning, I did so without a beta reader.  I prided myself on fast updates and extensive editing, and this carried on for twenty-five chapters or so.  Then summer vacation ended, and my free time shrank to only a few seconds here or there.  To ( Read more... )

Today I would like to present to you something that comes around every year: The (Evil) English Assignment.  Last year said assignment was a 3D map of Odysseus' journey- and this year, a crazy paper written as a group.  And did I mention that it counts as a test grade?

Anyway, the assignment works like this: you form a group, and each group gets a ( Read more... )

I'm so sorry for the posting delay!  There were so many times that I felt like posting- I actually have several things to talk about, but I just didn't have the time to write.  And now that I do have the time, I'm simply to exhausted to write a full-length post.

And why am I so tired? History.

You see, I'm in the Advanced Placement US History class ( Read more... )

By far the best of the Sookie Stackhouse Mysteries, "Dead to the World" was quite easy to read and enjoy even after months spent away from the series.  The book starts off with a short summary of the events of "Club Dead", thus ( Read more... )

I am the absolute worst Merlin fan possible.  I should have known that the BFI was going on, but of course I didn't.  I actually only found out about it today, so I had to read through nearly twenty posts of recounts and pictures and videos.  Which was fun, of course, but I was mad that I hadn't found out about it earlier.  I mean, everyone had ( Read more... )

Being bored is very... boring.  There is no two ways about it.  If you're bored and feel like doing nothing, you quickly get bored of doing nothing and then you have to do something.  This something inevitably turns out to be boring, and then you're right back to where you started: being bored.

I wish I had my own personal Merlin right now.  If I ( Read more... )

I think it's quite obvious that I'm doing one thing (posting in LJ) when I should be doing something else (homework).  The thing is, procrastinating can be so much fun!  Here I am, surfing the net and goofing around, instead of doing my history reading.  I'll regret later, but why should I care less right now?  Carpe diem, live in the moment, ( Read more... )

Well, it is now official:  I have survived the first week of my sophomore year of high school.  I made it through three crazy days of collecting textbooks, filling out forms, and organizing binders.  I've completed my first few assignments and have also excelled in them, therefore securing my place as one of the top students of my grade.  How do I ( Read more... )
