Have been swallowed alive by school. And spat back out again. Nom nom.

But yes. Soo sorry to be so absent. If you're feeling neglected, please just e-mail me and I shall send some love. <3 School's going to get worse before it gets better, but I ought to aim for some balance.

Three other things:

I'm taking a writing course (nonfiction) and I think it' ( Read more... )

School has a tendency to chew you up and spit you out. Thank goodness I'm done, until I save enough money to attend graduate school. But until then, I'm still on a hunt for a full time job, which I may get soon! No more Safeway!

Nonfiction bores me, so I admire that you're taking that class. I can't even read a newspaper without my mind going into fantasy land.

Hope you have a terrific semester! And try not to stress yourself out too much. ^_^

GRADUATE school, you say? That is very admirable. What will you be taking? (And YAY no more Safeway!)

Actually, this nonfiction class is basically about making stories from your own life, so thus far it's been pretty fun. But I do often feel that there's nothing too exciting about my own experiences. I'm boring, what more can I say?

Good luck on the job hunting!!

The graduate school idea is still in consideration. My dad thinks I should study business, but business bores me, and I don't want to go through two years of being miserable. If I get the government job I've been pining for, I'm thinking of studying Intercultural Communications at my alma mater. But, who knows.

Making stories from your life can be very enjoyable. You know, your life is unique, and only you have the power to write about it. Something so simple to you could be entirely fascinating to me. And I've heard in some creative writing courses that drawing upon your personal experiences can help you to be a better writer.

And I got a full time job! At the bank that hired me part time. Within the week, they offered me the full time position. The most awesome thing is that it's a five minute walk from my house.

Best wishes!

Hey, hey! I'm being chewed on as we speak! I'll e-mail you, now that you have invited to do so! Yay!

Oh, be careful about the writing classes. They try to conform you and make you like every other writer out there. I think your style is beautiful, so don't change it! Stick with it!

I haven't even been able to write a sentence in any of my stories. *fume*

I'll be e-mailing ya later! ^_^ Yay! (I have a new address)

Hope your day is good!

You should email me. That is a good plan. <3 Then I can know your new address!

Nooo I definitely need improvement on my poor style. And I think this class is going to help big time. I just hope I won't bomb it. -____- But also, because the class is nonfiction, I think I will probably end up writing the class-pieces in a bit of a different way than how I write my fantasy stuff. Especially because much of the nonfiction is first person and that just does not mesh with me for fun writing. I don't know.. I'm rambling. So sorry my dear.

And I totally have not been able to write, either! (Well, non-school related). I open up my word documents and just STARE at them. What is with that?

But I would love more Chubby Knight & Dragon, whenever you are able to finish. That pair is sooooo cute. <333

It's so sad isn't it? I spent half the time mourning the fact that I couldn't look at Present Peter's beautiful face! But at least his reflection is there *mmmmm*

I know! My beautiful Peter! ;_;

Though in all seriousness, I hope this season will rock as much as the first one. The Second Season kind of seemed to, er... unravel a bit. Too many new characters and too messy a plot maybe. Something like that. Anyway, I'm so happy you're watching it too! (Didn't you recommend it to me?) I love this series...

... and I especially love Peter, and his beautiful face, and his beautiful beautiful abilities.

I'm so glad I enlisted you to the errr cause. I'm afraid I do this with all my friends. I force them (sometimes through questionable means) to sit and watch episodes of Heroes and Supernatural with me (Supernatural actually has a 100% converting record!). They start out embarrassed and resentful because yes, the titles of these shows do tend to be melodramatic...but I'll always brainwash them in the end. In a good way.

I agree last season was kind of bogged down and focused too much on unnecessary elements. Sylar and Maya love is a No/non/nyet/bu. He is too villainously awesome for that (and he's mine ^_^) But Adam and Elle were Suuuwwweeeet!

ps Sylar. Brother. Peter. What?!?
(and Mohinder's really gotten creepy...)

Iiiiiinkyyy~~~
You're aliiiive!! Yay!

School, ah, yes. I know this word.
I believe it has stripped me of free time and individual thought. :X (not to mention personal issues!)

WHAT?! No magic or dragons? How can this beee? D< *flails arms* Is there such a thing?

Nyaaaah~ Heroesss. GASP! A spoiler? I haven't seen the second season of Heroes yet! It's going to be on my sister's or my own Christmas list... thus we are taping the third season so we can watch it after Christmas! =D

Hm... I think I may be the one rambling! (Oh noes!)

Good luuuuuck!!

Gaaaah sorry to be slow! But yes! I am alive! Sort of!

School is evil, isn't it? It demands so much attention, and offers so little in return. Mhm.

Hahahah, I know, the world of nonfiction is a sad, sad place. No magic. No dragons... it makes one wonder-- WHY WOULD ANYONE READ IT??

Ahhh, yes, Heroes. I LOVED the first season, though the second season got a bit WTF and was not as good really *sadsadsad*, but the director has promised to make it better for the third season. But overall I just LOVE SUPERPOWERS and totally, totally love Peter and his most awesome ability.

Rambling is always good!

*love*

Good luck with school to you too!
