| ...uh, hi, Xanga. Apparently I have to sign in and post once in awhile to keep my account, so this is that. AFAIK I'm not coming back, but if anyone still reads this and wants to find me again, comment with your AIM or your email and I'll get in touch with you. <3

| Er... hi! *wave* Two entries in three months is... good, right? >><<
October: My cat bit my dad's hand; his truck got rear-ended, then stolen; and he had to go to the emergency room for IV antibiotics for the cat bite... all within twelve hours. That was a fun day, I can tell you. --; His truck was found two weeks later, after being involved in a high-speed chase. We haven't got it back yet, as it is being repaired.
November: I did Nanowrimo again-- hit 50k on the 26th, and 52k and "The End" on the 27th. I met three girls my age who were all writing novels. It was a good month!
December: I'm returning to my one true love: figure skating. I'm paying attention to when shows are aired on TV, and last night I went skating for the first time in six or seven years. I was pretty clumsy at first, but by the end of the hour and a half I skated, I could skate quickly and smoothly in short bursts.
I am desperate for lessons. I want to do this so badly. It's the first sport I've tried where I wasn't constantly thinking "I'm really bad at this." Instead I was thinking "I can get better; I am getting better at this." It's been a long time since the last time I thought I could be really good at something if I just practiced enough. I'm sick of being apathetic about everything; I need something to love. That is figure skating.
I have been thinking, breathing, and dreaming skating since the beginning of December. If Johnny Weir could make it to the Olympics in nine years, I can do something within that amount of time. I want to skate and jump and see just how far I can go. I used to hate exercise because it had no destination for me; well, if I want to jump, I'm going to need some muscles. I liked Pilates the last time I tried it, so I'm getting back into that.
My goal is not to be famous, though it would be fun to compete. It's just... I've always wanted to fly, under my own power. I miss the strong little girl I used to be, who could run and run and not get tired. Right now, I can't even run a block without having to stop to breathe. I want to be strong again, and I believe figure skating will give me a reason to become strong.

| I SAW MUSE LAST NIGHT!! They were awesome! I was sad, though, because it turned out they allowed cameras, and I didn't bring mine. :( But I don't know if they'd have let it in, since it has a video function. Oh well. Muse didn't know what state they were in-- twice they yelled, "Thank you Kansas!" ...I live in Missouri. 8D; But I'm just a few blocks from Kansas, so it's a pretty common mistake.
Anime club, Japanese class, and Louis & Clark festival today. May see Evan at L&C festival, as his dad is playing that evening. *fingers crossed*
Lately I have had a strong desire to acquire a cute male human being who'd cuddle me. I have no idea why I want that. I just do. It's annoying. Perhaps I should stop begging my friends to get me a boy, and instead beg them to keep me away from boys. I could be dangerous!
...maybe I shouldn't look for Evan after all.
ANYWAY. 8D Here's what's been going on over the past few days. If you read my LJ, you've probably seen all this:
Fic + art for birthday themes
I'm doing a 30_kisses claim for Ryou/Amane. Here's what I've got so far. (They're also in the birthday-theme fic/art post, so if you've read that, you're covered. One just got minor editing to, you know, INCLUDE A KISS. Which I forgot. ^^; )
My birthday: the gift that keeps on giving. Julia bought me "The Godeaters", because it's now in print! eeeeee!!! :D And I bought myself Deathnote v. 5, plus Nami Tamaki's CD "Greeting," which is Very Much Win.
Tyger wrote me Thief King Bakura-fic. Ghosties and young!TKB, squee!
Aramis wrote me Mana/Amane ghost!yuri. THIS IS MY NEW SHIP, YO. :D
Another awesome TKB-fic, by lokogato, who is a FANTASTIC writer. Just, oh my god. This story is not for the faint-hearted. ^___^
I saw this video at Japanese class, a couple of weeks ago. IT IS SO CUTE! >w<~~
Animation vs. Animator-- awesome video!
A friend of mine has vanished from Livejournal, and no one knows what's happened to her. I'm worried. And another friend got me thinking... I could disappear tomorrow, and none of you would know what happened to me. I know it sucks when that happens, as I've lost contact with several people in the two years I've possessed Interweb, and I miss them all very much. (yroul27, Mi926, purplezeebra...I hope you guys are okay. ;__; )
So if I ever disappear from Xanga and you never see me again, remember I love you all very much, and wherever I am, I miss you tons.
I've started going to Israeli folkdancing on Tuesday nights. There's a girl there... I think her name is Halle? She's cute! *hopeless crush* Hee. :D

| Layout change! And oh, was it ever good to fiddle with code again. *___* If it screws up in anyone's browser, please let me know. It looks fine in Safari, but the scrollbar vanishes in Opera.
Dark lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music till her brew was done
Dark lady played back magic till the clock struck on the twelve
She told me more about me than I knew myself

| Guess who's back, back again~
I was talking to Rowan just now, and realised... I really miss Xanga. So I'm returning. :D Updates may be a little sparse, but I'll try to post whatever I post in Livejournal, here. It will be edited somewhat, because on LJ, I can control who sees my posts. Here, I can't. The protected-post feature doesn't have enough room. =/ I'm not paranoid about my friends, of course, just the random scary people who might stumble across my little corner of the interwebs. o_o;;
I cut my hair. One day it was bugging me, so I cut a few inches off. I can't bear to cut it off at once (sorry, Locks of Love) so every couple of weeks I cut off a bit more. It's about five inches past my shoulders. I like it this length. I've cut off about half of it; that's enough for now.
I've been playing a lot of kingdomofloathing.com. You guys should join. I'm Hypergraphia; if you join, let me know. :D
I have decided not to regret Thomas. I learned a lot about myself in those three months. Speaking of him, we're tentatively friends these days. I haven't seen him IRL since April, but we talk on AIM sometimes, and it's nice.
I've got a project going on at LJ. I'm trying to finish seventeen fics/fanarts before my birthday. I still have ten left. My birthday's on September 5. (O_O;;) I'll link them here when I finish.
The most interesting thing that happened all summer? I kissed two girls. In the same night. And those are the only details I can give. ^_~
Okay, I'm out. Love you guys. *kissu* <333 | | |
