it's been a while, hasn't it?<br />
Not sure how to start :P
So, I will just dive in.<br />
<br />
First order of business:<br />
I am sorta sorry that i have not been updating regularly. :O<br />
This blog kinda faded to the back of my mind once school started.<br />
<br />
On that note,
School is done! haha. today was my last day of school, which means i am now a senior. :)<br />
scary, huh?<br />
I certainly think so.<br />
<br />
I have not been writing as much as I would have liked. School has a way of taking over your life :P<br />
lol
so I will try to write more this summer, if I have the inspiration and the commitment to do so.<br />
we shall see.<br />
*thinks* not much else to say. my life is pretty boring ;)<br />
haha.
until next time!<br />
<br />

<br />
*rubs hands together* where to start? i suppose i could tell you about writing. (you already know what it is :P (hopefully) but i just wanted to tell you about MY writing (this blog is mostly centered around me XP ))<br />
*ahem* recently, i have started a new TSA draft. (the 7th rewrite? i lost count.) this time it WILL be finished. haha, so far, 6k+ words :) im happy with it so far lol.<br />
<br />
Life has been good lol. not doing much (no summer school, thankfully) and my days have been filled with facebook and books. (and the occasional video game :P )<br />
<br />
speaking of which, i must return to the library....<br />
<br />
*thinks* there is not much to tell, believe it or not.<br />
i just have one question.<br />
<br />
Who has ever heard/read the book Hawksong by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes?<br />
XD I just started it... lets see how it is.<br />
<br />
Always Hope.<br />

seems that never happened :P<br />
<br />
sooo, i am gonna blog about this awesome guy and this awesome place and this awesome story i read instead! (due to requests, of course >_> LOL)<br />
<br />
*ahem*<br />
so, i am on vacation! *will save that for another blog post*<br />
i am heading back home tomorrow, and today was the last day :)<br />
well, i am about 15 minutes away from.... *dun dun dunnnnn!* Keeneye! *explosive applause*<br />
<br />
well, Friday afternoon, i called him up and said. "Hello."<br />
(very dramatic O_o)<br />
we talked a bit about his address and then what we were going to do for supper. din-din. dinner!<br />
*ahem*<br />
soo, we went ot his house and picked him up, heading on over to Golden Corral XD<br />
we had a blast that first meeting. (i think so at least :P)<br />
<br />
i know what you are saying - Details man! what were you thinking? feeling? talking about? etc etc??<br />
i am saving those for the next day ;)<br />
we talked for a loong time and then we dropped him off, staying just long enough for him to pass on a *white* binder full of awesome reading material<br />
(which i devoured)<br />
<br />
it was awesome. amazing. at first, i paid some attention to detail (which was epic. so vivid! :D ) then i just let myself get drawn in and watched the story unfold in my mind.<br />
<br />
such utter brilliance! it was amazing how wonderfully it was all crafter, woven together in a splendid tale.<br />
(ok, im going to stop >_> i am running out of words :O )<br />
it was epic :D<br />
<br />
so the next day was Saturday! the day we went to the Creation Museum :O<br />
so we went about 45 minutes early, getting planetarium tickets for everyone. (Keeneye was not there, as he was being dropped off at 10 AM)<br />
then HE ARRIVED (after we waited a bit XD during our wait, we visited the Dragon Hall bookstore! very awesome place :D did not have a whole lot on dragons though :P)<br />
<br />
*thinks* where to start... where to begin? we met Keeneye in the front lobby area and we proceeded to this little movie called Men in White. (very awesome :D)<br />
<br />
then we walked through the museum, learning a bunch of stuff about Creation, noah, Adam and eve, the flood, etc. etc. :D it was pretty amazing.<br />
especially with Keeneye standing with you the whole way :)<br />
<br />
all in all, we had a blast. a big blast. Thursday people said that the world was gonna end cause there was too much awesomeness...<br />
well, An earthquake hit Japan on Firday morning :(<br />
coincidence?<br />
<br />
next? we got this show tickets mixed up and had to transfer times and all and it was a gigantic mess.<br />
so we ate food and talked for about 20 minutes about writing and stories ^_^<br />
<br />
then we went to that show that was no longer mixed up and learned about gigantic starts and what our entire universe looked like (the parts we could see, at least) .<br />
<br />
so yeah :O then we hit the bookstore again, and then we went to this awesome restaruant and had MORE pizza ;) lol<br />
<br />
then... then we waited in the parking lot, talking about MORE writing stuffses and tribes and all that :D<br />
<br />
now i am here... content? tired...<br />
stuff xD its past midnight so :) perhaps i will edit this when i have time XD there is a lot i have to put in yet...<br />
sorry to end it now! :O<br />
<br />

<br />
oh, and happy new year :)<br />
i have a lot to post about O_o lets see...<br />
<br />
Christmas!!<br />
that was pretty epic :) got some awesome stuff and all, but it was great to go around and celebrate Christ's birth with everyone, like relatives and my online peeps XD<br />
<br />
(STORY UPDATE!)<br />
Alrighty. about 2 and a half weeks ago, (maybe more) i had a reeeally whacky dream O_o<br />
anywho, i remembered said dream most vividly, and jotted it down on the way to school an hour later :) then i started to outline a story for it, which took a few days and about 14 pages (these are mini-notebook pages FYI :P) and now, i have started the rough draft.<br />
its pretty crazy O_o<br />
I'll tell you what its all about some other time ;)<br />
<br />
<br />
New Year is fast approaching~!<br />
28 minutes to go and counting :) My new years resolution? To write a book :D at least a full rough draft of a book :) maybe even edit it :P but hey, lets not get too far ahead of ourselves XD<br />
<br />
2011 :) man, thats insane.<br />
This year has been pretty good... AWESOME even. :D<br />
why?<br />
cause i met The Elves :) some epic people, if i do say so myself :D<br />
<br />
well, thats all for now...<br />
Merry Christmas! XD<br />

Nanowrimo- my terrible attempt at nanowrimo amounted in 1.6k words :P terrible, ik. i hope to finish it once school is over - that is, once i get all those other projects finished... *muttermumblegrumble*<br />
to any who care... its a medieval story about taking back a land that was first taken by a evil knight XD roughly<br />
<br />
ahem.<br />
<br />
Tribes - AUGH! 6 days left O_o i hope you swiftstormers are working hard >:D bwahahhahaha..Silver Angelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11177099369495190936noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4934108657458909757.post-84558719720282833892010-12-02T08:12:00.000-06:002010-12-02T08:12:13.590-06:00Home - a poemright. i need to post about my fail at nano, but before i do, here is a poem i had to do for school lol<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: cyan;">Home</span></strong><br />
<br />
<br />
Welcome to the place of hope.<br />
<br />
A place full of light,<br />
<br />
A place without darkness,<br />
<br />
Without any evil.<br />
<br />
A place full of warmth.<br />
<br />
Welcome, to your home<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
This is your home,<br />
<br />
Brimming with hope,<br />
<br />
Giving you warmth.<br />
<br />
Do not fear the Light,<br />
<br />
Instead, fear the evil<br />
<br />
That hides in the Dark<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Don’t go into the darkness,<br />
<br />
Come back to your home.<br />
<br />
The outside is full of evil,<br />
<br />
Without any hope,<br />
<br />
Void of light,<br />
<br />
Taking your warmth<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Cling to your warmth,<br />
<br />
For here comes the Dark,<br />
<br />
Trying to invade the light,<br />
<br />
Trying to destroy your home.<br />
<br />
But have hope,<br />
<br />
You can defeat this evil<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Beware of the evil,<br />
<br />
It is without any warmth.<br />
<br />
A stealer of hope,<br />
<br />
A lover of the dark<br />
<br />
It will try to take your home.<br />
<br />
But fight back with the light!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Stay in the light,<br />
<br />
And you will defeat the evil<br />
<br />
Protect your home,<br />
<br />
For it is the source of warmth.<br />
<br />
It keeps out the darkness<br />
<br />
It restores your hope<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The Light brings Warmth,<br />
<br />
And Evil brings the Dark.<br />
<br />
Protect your home, the giver of Hope.<br />
<br />
<br />
to those who care, this is a sestina lol. XD <br />

<br />
so... after the booksigning was done, we went outside and hung around for a bit before everyone left :) i was FORCED to hold this duct tape thingy and face a fencing master.<br />
*shakes head* why me?<br />
<br />
GA can hit hard btw :P its a good idea to turn tail and run right away ahaha<br />
<br />
after being humiliated, Whisper and her family met Anduril, GA, Cson, Millard, and me and my bro at Culvers! :D we had the most epic time sitting around and talking about the underground, all you elves, and the like. good times... hehehe<br />
<br />
ah, how i miss you all so much! :)<br />
<br />
after culvers, we got kicked out (not really) and went to the hotel that Mill and I were staying at :) (which WTB and CH were also staying at)<br />
we played lots of cards, dragged out the laptops and started talking to people on the UG, and just talked a lot more.<br />
<br />
ahhh, thanks Whisper, Hark, and The Golux for staying that late (and Sting ;) :D man, that was fun to play ninja! though Hark and the Golux could not stay tooo long...<br />
<br />
and of course, Millard :D thanks for letting me bunk with you that night :) (and say hi to your dad and the family for me!)<br />
<br />
Mill, his Dad, and I got up around 6:45 to eat :) then at 7:15 or so, we ran out and went around to the different hotels to see if anyone was awake and eating :D<br />
<br />
we stopped byt hte hotel GA and Anduril were staying in, then we walked over to where Whisper and them were staying, hopeing we were not tooo late haha. (they had to leave early, you know >_> )<br />
<br />
we walked in and HUZZAH! there they were :D (completely shocked, if i may add :P )<br />
<br />
we said a quick goodbye to them and then went back to the Wingate (where GA and Anduril were staying, as well as my mother) and sat around for a while. finally, they came down and we got to sit around and watch everyone eat :)<br />
<br />
then... twas time to go :)<br />
we all packed up, bid each other farewell, and departed (took a while, let me tell you :P(not that i am complaining XD)<br />
<br />
so yeah :) twas prolly much, much better than i described though.<br />
<br />
farewell, and goodnight!<br />
<br />

it was because we as a people, a nation, had to strike out at at the people responsible for the murdering of over 3,000 lives.<br />
Of course, i am talking about the World Trade Center attack.<br />
<br />
when i watch what happened that day on the history channel... it just makes me made. very, very mad. <br />
<br />
now, there are many, many people who hate it that we are at war. but i bet that if you showed them what happened, reminded the of the pain and suffering that was caused, i think they will change their views quickly.<br />
<br />
This is to all the soldiers who have and are risking their lives over seas. to the brave men and women who defend our country, on the inside, and out.<br />
This is to those who fight evil and defend what is right.<br />
<br />
Thank you.<br />
<br />
<br />
Never Alone!<br />
Endurance and Victory!<br />

<br />
pffft, nope. we are going bowling<br />
<br />
instead, we did a Triathlon today :P we had to run 1 mile, bike 3 miles, and swim 12 laps (idk how long it is :P haha)<br />
<br />
I was pretty psyched about it, ya know?<br />
until I woke up the next morning and saw it pouring outside.<br />
yeah...<br />
<br />
they told us to grab a partner and to head outside. one partner does the triathlon while you keep track of how many laps they do, etc. (they basically broke us into two groups)<br />
<br />
while my partner (a good friend of mine) was running, it was not raining too hard. i actually liked it, until the temperature dipped slightly. (twas like, 60 degrees out :P) so we all started shivering a little.<br />
<br />
well, after my partner finished running, he got to bike 3 miles in the rain as well. and after that, he got to swim 12 laps in the pool (i liked that part... the pool room is like, 80 degrees with 100% humidity :P lol)<br />
<br />
then it was my turn.<br />
<br />
and guess what? The heavens opened up wider and it started to rain much, much harder.<br />
<br />
it was INSANE!<br />
<br />
I got soaked, needles to say. it felt pretty much like I was underwater :P haha<br />
<br />
it started to rain so bad by the time we finished the mile, that we had to skip the biking and head straight to swimming! but because we were not biking, we had to swim 24 laps instead....<br />
<br />
yeah D:<br />
<br />
well, i finished in 36:29... not bad, considering i am a terrible swimmer. hahaha<br />
<br />
^_^ anyone else had to do something like that in the rain? (OO) do tell if ye had :o<br />
<br />

<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br />
</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">What makes an ending epic?</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br />
</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">endings are times we always have mixed feelings about it seems, depending on what is ending.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br />
</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">in books, it depends on the story. how real did the characters seem? were they believable?</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">it also depends on what the characters did. did they have real lives that we can relate to? </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br />
</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">it depends on the story.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br />
</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">for telling how i feel about some endings, i am going to use a book series as an example. (some of you know of it, some of you may not)</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">a kids series called Animorphs</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">now, i am a bit hesitant to talk about this series cause i do not think it is Christian, and it is a kids series really :P i think... </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br />
</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">anyway! </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">the series was written by K. A. Applegate. she started to write it in 1996 and finished it in 2001... there were over 60 books in the whole series when she was done.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br />
</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">if you are a fast reader, it would take you just under an hour to read one of the books...</span></span></div><div><br />
</div><div>*ahem*</div><div>so why am i talking about this series?</div><div><br />
</div><div>well, that is because of certain things that happened while i read it.</div><div>when i started reading it, i started on a special book, not part of the main series, so it did not make sense at first.</div><div>finally, i got 3/4 of the way through it, and then i am told i am not allowed to read the series anymore, right i was about to get to the last 10 books.</div><div>i was pretty much devastated (understand i was 12 at the time :P)</div><div><br />
</div><div>then, a year later, i was finally allowed to read them again! YAY!</div><div>but by then, the library had sold off a bunch of the books, so there were big gaps... to this day, there are even less books sitting on the shelves...</div><div>there is a span of 3 years inside the books i believe... with the last book skipping a couple more ahead.</div><div> so i read them out of order, and it turns out, that was ok, mostly.</div><div>except the books i read did not have many important developments in them... *ahem*</div><div><br />
</div><div>so then i had the library people order the books in and borrow them from another library.</div><div>and i finally finished..., and i was happy lol</div><div><br />
</div><div>i still have 1 more book i need to find yet though <_< >_></div><div><br />
</div><div>anyway, the ending cuts off VERY suddenly, and i kinda got really mad at the author haha.</div><div><br />
</div><div>but i reread the ending again last night, and it inspired me. when i was younger, i did not look past my anger to see how awesome it was. one of the characters died in the end, and it was really sad... why? because of how the other characters reacted to it. when you realize that someone's life you have been following for a few years has died. </div><div><br />
</div><div>What makes an ending epic?</div><div><br />
</div><div>when an adventure you have been on ends, you are never the same. adventures usually change you. and maybe you had fun on your adventure, and are sad it is now gone...</div><div>so. we look for a new adventure!</div><div>length and character development makes an ending SO much more better. the longer the story, the more sad and awesome the ending is.</div><div>at least, that is my opinion ;)</div><div><br />
