| Melokia |
Author has written 11 stories for Friendship, Essay, Love, Horror, and Life. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is supposed to be a little bit about me. Great. I hate autobiographies. I either sound completely self-obsessed, or...well, see for yourself. Um, my pen name is my name, Melody, in hawaian. I thought that was kinda cool. Melodia is a literal translation of my name in Spanish, but my evil Spanish teacher won't let me use it 'cause this little Mexican *twitch twitch* (don't ask) punk said they don't really use that as a name. So I, Melody, am Melody in Spanish class. What fun, huh? Let's see, what else. Well, I'm 16, in 10th grade at a high school in a podunk little backwoods southern town. Don't get me wrong, I love the South, and I'm such a Southern girl it's not even funny, but I just want out, ya know? May be get a chance to tone down my southern accent a bit. Which, really, isn't that bad until I get mad, and then I not only have an accent, I have a twang. But it's gotten worse lately because I've hung around my friend Jesse too much. I tend to pick up whatever accent I'm around. Anyway...I have medium-length light brown (or red-brown, depending on the lighting) hair that I tend to pull back in a pony-tail whenever I get a chance. I have brown eyes...not pretty liquidy brown eyes like my cousins on my mom's side have, but brown with these weird lighter streaks and smears that I got from my dad's side. I'm not thin, but I'm not overweight either. I could stand to tone up a little, more than anything. I love to write, obviously. I like to read when I have a chance, as long as it's not a Russian author. Trying to read one to better myself, but I haven't touched it in three weeks...So, obviously, that's not going well. Since I described my own eyes with such annoying accuracy, I have to comment that a guy's eyes tend to catch my attention more than any other feature. I like pretty eyes...bright blue or green eyes, and I'm gone. Okay, well, may be not quite so easy, but that definately figures into my assessment of a hot guy. And hair...may be I'm a little fixated on hair. Soem girls go for the smile, the ass, the muscle...I go for pretty eyes and cute hair. May be that's why I got mad when my ex cut his hair. Not that that was why I broke up with him, mind you. I broke up with him when he started reminding me of my little sister, who's four years the baby. Eleven years old at the time, too, mind you. Anyway, you don't care about that, right? What am I thinking...if you're still reading this at all, you're probably looking for details a little more writing oriented, huh? Sorry. Well, as you'll see if you look at enough of my stuff, I enjoy writing both poetry and prose, but from my own assessment my poetry stinks. My best friends assured me that she envies me, but I just think my prose is light years ahead of my poetry. My prose, however, also presents a problem. I've gotten hooked on fanfiction...i currently have a three inch binder full of Alias fanfiction, and it doesn't all fit. I have some original fiction on here, but I hate any kind of organized prewriting, so I tend to get bogged down in a story to the point of self-destruction. I start with a good idea, I just can't take it any where. Also, lately, I've been so dang busy that I haven't stopped long enough to do my homework in two weeks, and I haven't been home more than an average of seven hours a day in...oh, let's see...four days now, going into the fifth. No, this is the fourth. And of those seven hours? Only six of them were spent actually sleeping. AMP and Mello Yellow, baby! They work wonders...And I'm still expected to be Jesse's walking dictionary...lol Now, I've captivated your poor mind long enough...go read some of my bogglingly vague poetry to get it working correctly again...I suggest The Void for that purpose... | |||||||||
1. Become A Part reviewsA sweet little piece I did in Trig the other morning, while Mr. P was explaining some graphing thing...A token of friendship, and the promise of more. I think it's one of my better pieces, from a standard point of view, if not necessarily my most emo.Love - Fiction Rated: K+ - English - Romance/General - Chapters: 1 - Words: 101 - Reviews: 1 - Updated: 8-24-05 - Published: 8-24-052.

Hello World! reviewsUpbeat, happy, everything I'm trying to be. I've been too serious lately. I just want to be a kid, just for a little while, even if I'm working all the time. All work and no play, right?

You Don't Know Me reviewsI wrote this for my boyfriend a few months after we broke up.

I think it actually got to him that he was hurting me this way.Love - Fiction Rated: T - English - Spiritual/Romance - Chapters: 1 - Words: 464 - Reviews: 2 - Updated: 4-13-05 - Published: 4-13-055. The Void reviewsMore self-exploration based stuff, pinpointing that moment when you find the worst things about yourself. Read into it what you will, I like the fact that it's pretty vague. Hopefully it invokes emotion without you being able to say why.Life - Fiction Rated: K - English - Spiritual/General - Chapters: 1 - Words: 170 - Reviews: 2 - Updated: 1-30-05 - Published: 1-30-056.

Don't Hate Me reviewsWritten in a moment of anti-society-ness. It's a self-exploratory kind of thing, me against the world. Real Goth-like, even though I avoid jumping into the stereotype with both feet normally.Life - Fiction Rated: K - English - General - Chapters: 1 - Words: 150 - Reviews: 1 - Updated: 1-21-05 - Published: 1-21-059. I Can Feel It reviewsThis is just a poem I wrote as I was trying to get out of a relationship I thought was pretty good at the time.

True Social Circles » reviewsAh, social circles in high school. Quite an interesting topic, don't you think?
