Whoa, the last time I posted was on June 28. That was like, such a long time ago. xD
Happy birthday, Sarah! C:
Hahahahaha, there's this flamer on my cbox and he/she/it leaves some flames that are [supposedly] supposed to sting. Darn hilarious I tell you. xD Anyway to all future flamers: why bother? It's not like I did anything to you. Even if I did, tell me; and for Merlin's sake, use proper English! No one takes you seriously when you use netspeak. Gosh, that just backfires the words you use on me back onto you.
On to another quite depressing news in a semi-parallel universe.
The INKPression! Writing Competition 2010 or whatever it's called is tough; mainly because of the word limit. 800 words canNOT express a well written piece. I wrote one that I was extremely proud of; then I realised I shot wayyy past the maximum: 1157 words! Oh gosh- I had such a hard time trying to trim it down to exactly 800.
I printed the story out, then I realised I hadn't spellchecked.
[insert extremely foul profanity here]
Have I told you how much I truly detest Maths? I don't even know what the formula is for the base area of a cylinder or a base area of a pyramid or whatever number-related stuff you people think is
fun.
English is .. okay, somewhat. I miss writing about fun topics, actually. :C
Nowadays I'm really concentrating on writing again, instead of lazing away and not doing anything about my writers block. Well readers, Xiahou Ayumi is back into writing! [waits for applause]
I'm now going past my comfort zone; instead of spending all of my time playing around in JKR's sandbox, I'm now going to spend maybe, a quarter of that time to write my own stories- oneshots first, then onto the real deal.
On a completely irrelevant note, have you guys noticed that I'm actually blogging for once, and not spouting random crap about how I'm bored and how I should really stop waxing illogical facts on purple cows?
[Well, in all honesty, I AM bored and I will NOT stop talking about the existence of purple cows. But that's not the point.]
The point is, I'm now determined to up my grade in English to maybe a distinction; I have a skill- why not hone and use it to the fullest I can?
Where was I before this? x_x
Oh, right. Storywriting. I don't know why many people loathe reading & writing so much. In the honourable words of Sam Puckett, "It's like TV in your head!"
So now that I've expressed how much I love writing, I think I should actually get to it right now. C:
