Well, to begin with (as I always do) I am 15. According to my grandmother I'm wise beyond my years, but I disagree. I'm plenty book-smart- common sense, however, is beyond me. So, I've been in 9th grade for 3 quarters of the year now, and I'm so happy for this year to be almost over. It's really flown by, and I'm shocked to realize it's already April. Honestly, I detest this year. I've had a few good classes, yes, like Drama with Mr. Buck (who is the most amazing teacher- I'll have a quote from him later) and both classes I've had with Mrs. Scott this year. But Honors American Experience (History), Honors English 9, Accelerated Math, and French II- ugh. Mostly I'm an A student, of course, because God forbid I get anything less, but I have a B in math and one in History right now (expecting the Hist. to go up though) and I can live with the math grade. It's my worst subject.
All right, moving on. From around the end of 6th grade, all the way through the end of 8th grade, I was depressed. Severely so. But I'm done with that now- or at least, I thought so. Then last night hit me like a ton of bricks and that sort of ended. It came back. Because I've made a lot of mistakes in my life. But now I've fallen for someone who is entirely unlikely to return those feelings. It's so stupid of me. I should stop my complaining though.

Arianna would now like to note that as much as she abhors most fanfiction, she is struggling urges to write smexy Derek x Victor (Trauma Center men- hard to find good pics). Mostly cause Pie and I were discussing stuff when I slept at her house on Friday, like this one scene with puppies and this one where Victor changes Derek's laptop background the night before he has a presentation without telling him, and that cool stuff. Watch an operation from the game (Wii version) here!! The person playing there is not nearly as good as Pie.

Arianna would like fans of The Storyteller to know this: she is killing herself to satisfy you. I should be working on my Honors History summer project, but no. Instead I am staring blankly at Chapter Eight of Adrienne's story, trying to get into her mindset (also instead of thinking about how I"m probably getting the new Trauma Center for the DS tomorrow and won't end up doing anything else till I beat the thing) and it is like... I have a bunch to go. Mind, I've concluded that when revisions happen, Chapter Eight is becoming 3 distinct chapters, lest I like, die or something. It's not healthy for this one to be over 18,000 words long when they are on average below 10,000- not including chapter four, which hit just over 11,000.
Thought you should know.

screams in frustration I made progress on Storyteller last night- like a page and a half, and it was high quality and I loved it and it wasn't a saved document (Document3 or something) and for some reason my computer closed it while I was asleep and I can't restore it! Now I have to try and remember what I wrote- like, and make it as quality as it was before, not some half-assed version. sob

I am not tired right now. At all, and I have no bleeding idea why, but it works to my advantage, because I have a lot that I need to get done. So in any case, here's the me right now: summer vacation, yahoo!! Freedom, freedom, freedom. Now I can spend way more time on my writing- which I do even while playing video games, while I wait for things to load and stuff. I've been novel-plotting during a seven-hour Persona 3 session. Best game ever, by the way. So, anyhow, I do have projects for my retarded Honors courses... 3 novels to read and an essay to write for English, a newsletter to make for History. Exciting. ...BLECH!! Writing is so much more attractive, but I gotta do well on these things. Especially if I want to keep my nice, shiny 4.0 or better. I came out of this year with a perfect 4.0, after all- A's in everything 'cept math, and I got a C in that, but my two honors courses from this year saved me.
In any case, I promise I'm working on Storyteller, to those who read it.

Well, my life got interesting around 11:30 last night... I was looking at one of my old stories- DarkWorld, and thinking about how I've been planning to rewrite it for ages. So I read the crap prologue, moved on to chapter one, which has the original prologue in it, mentally scrolled through the advice I was given on it, and said, "Hey, why not start rewriting now!? It doesn't matter that I can hardly keep my eyes open!!" o.O I know, it was absolutely ingenius of me. In any case, I'm reposting it, keeping the old one too. So I'm making a new story!! Yayness!! Not. Now I've got Storyteller to write, this fanfiction I keep promising my best friend (and since I started it she's threatening to throw flaming objects at me if I don't work on it- for the record, it's Pie), another old story that I feel like rekindling entitled Legend in Tears, and this one.
God save me.
Here's my theme song: Vertical Horizon- Miracle
It's taken much too long,
To get it right, would it be so wrong?
To maybe find someone, a miracle?
And all you really need,
Is everything that you could never be,
And so you give it all,
For a miracle
"Then I choked some guy and slapped a bitch." This was a REVIEW left by my friend Royal Bliss. She didn't even realize she had left it until the author she left it for PMed her saying "What?"
I don't want my profile to be as long as it was, so now I'll just do two quotes from Mr. Buck, and add some links, and be done with it.
Mr. Buck: You don't even know my first name.
Kitty: Todd.
Mr. Buck: Oh. Well, you don't know my middle name.
Jenna: William.
Mr. Buck: Dammit! Stalker, how did you know that?
And another one- this is the second night of the play he did. On the first night of the show, the mics were messing up big time, and one person went off stage, and his was really bad, so he said 'fuck', except his mic decided to work again, so the entire audience heard him. So during the sound checks the next day, when it got to that guy…
Mr. Buck: Say fuck really loud.
Greatest teacher ever.
