Konnichi-wa! And yellow! Just a happy greeting before you read my profie (and/or) storys! And if you just skip this part and go right to my storys or skip my storys and just read my profile then thats o.k. with me. But I would really like it if you would read my storys and comment on them! Thanks! And just to warn you: I am randum.

Hey ummm, I'm new(heh, not really anymore) here and going to be putting up some storys soon, I hope you like them. I also have a accont in Fan Fic. Here are the titles of my first ones I'm going to start:

ANNOUNCEMENT!!: I'M GOING TO START TAKING DOWN MY STORIES, ESPECIALLY THE RATANA TRIOLOGY. The reason why is because I'm re-writting them and I want to edit them...I'll maybe keep on Seal of Fallen Stars, and my poems, but I want to publish my stories someday, and I also don't want people stealing my story ideas. I'm SO grateful for all the reveiws, and helpful comments, and I will maybe post on short stories every now and then. Thanks SO MUCH, again, and I WILL keep reveiwing people's stories here as well. I hope you all don't hate me(even though I'm sure no ones reading my stories anyways...), and maybe some day you'll find one of my stories at Barns and Noble, lol,...I'm not certain, but I'm really going to try. The stories I will be taking down are:

-The Sisterhood of Ratana
-The Brotherhood of Black Magic
-The Dark One
-Seal of Fallen Stars(MAYBE)
-Cat's Shadow

08/13/08: As you see from the announcment from above...I've, heh, changes, but only because I get things done faster when I don't post, and I can find mistakes better.

More about me:
Well...lets see...more about me...hummm...I can be very moody sometimes...mostly hyper and annoying, heh...I really like astrology, and know alot about it...I belive in all supernatural things such as magic, fariys, mermaids, vampires, witches, and the list goes on, don't call me crazy, I'm just a fan of the abnormal things in life_ I'm not ganna say what I look like...because I know that their are online predetors out there...(espcally on MySpace. Which is why I don't have one, that and the fact that my friend keeps bugging me to death about getting one..). I'm werid, yes, but it means I have a imagination...I also have verious moods, I'm usally happy around my friends, but when I'm with my family or sister I tend to get testy...but, I love to laugh, I love to hang with my peeps(heh, me tring to use slang..dorky me), and just having fun. I'm randum sometimes, but I get serious when I need to...I'm smart(if you call B's and on C on my report card smart), and I really like to read...I'm shy, I have to admitt, but once I get to know ya, you will see my true colors! I get along with anyone, and sometimes I can get annoying, but I'm just tring to make people smile! And well, I'm in HS(high school, that should narrow down the age people). I love: drawing, paitning, writting, my friends and family, anything about Egypt(I know ALOT about it) astrology(its soo interesting...I might want to be a astrology when I'm older...), magical/supernatural things, boys boys boys!, dolphins, kittys(espcally my kitty kat Buster! She's sooo cute!) anime(my fav animes/manga are: Zodiac P.I., Kadocha, Tokyo Mew Mew, Fruit Basket, Naruto, DNAngel, Card Captor Sakura, FMA, Cresent Moon, Chrno Crusade, Kamichama Karin, etc). watching tv, and more...

I've been writting Ebooks, for like, what, one and a half years, and right now have five done, ten I'm working on, and some short stories. And to be honset, I never though I would be good at writting at all.(When I was a kid I spent most of my time rotting my brain infrount of the tv.) I'm a horrible speller, and well, that should explain it, but on day I came across fanfictionpress, and though about writting my own storys, and thats when I found THIS site. And then I found the magic of books! And of writting! (wow, never though that would happen to me!I was a dork in my lower grades, but I wasn't a smart dork, now I'm just werid.) And to tell you the truth again, I've meet(and know) SO MANY people who are better then me, for example, my cousin! And one of my friends! But I will try my hardest, so I hope you enjoy my storys!

Right now I'm at a JC, and hopefully in about two years, or a year and a half(I'm going for the shortest time I can spend in a JC), transfer to a four year, my top choices(in order) right now are: 1. UCLA, 2. Brown(its in RI, which is kinda far, but it has a AWSOME EGYPTOLOGY department!), 3. UC Berekeley, 4. UC Santa Barbara. Even though I love writting, I'm wanting to become a...SUPERHERO! Don don don!(heh, theres the randum part)...naw, just kidding, but begain a sercet superhero would be cool, I just wouldn't wear the tights, thats dorky(no offence to people who do wear them.) But...SERIOUSLY, I want to acually either be a auther, astrology, or mabye a dolphin trainer(I LOVE dolphins! Just as much as I love KITTYS!) Or someone who works with animals...But, mainly my idea is to be either a Egyptiologist(I love anceint Egypt.)/writter/artist...I also thought it would be fun to be...--stops for dramtic pause-- a detective! Yep, like one of those people on Law and Order...or NCIS! But since I'm mostly clueless all the time, I don't think I will ever be one...--sniffs--, but its good to dream! When I was younger, I always though of begain a actor, but heh, I'm bad at acting...I keep laughing everytime it came to my lines in plays(or I would do something to make other's laugh when it came to their lines.). I also like to travel(heh, I had gone to New Zeland before...it was amazing!). But, if that doesn't work out, I just wanna be the best person I can be, and have a job doing the thing I love: just begain me and living life to the fullest! ~ Black Cat Bastet

Before I go, I would like to say this, I HAVE BAD SPELLING. I will work on it, but some how, missed spelled words slip though, so I'm sorry, but I will try my hardest, well, there you go, and now I got to go...TIME FOR DINNER!! YEAH DINNER!! BYE!

Storys:

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Heh, actually, I don't think I'll be posting up my stories anytime soon. Any of my LONG CHAPTER ones. Although, I will post the occational short story, and poems for a while before taking them down. I will try to read other people's stories because I find fictionpress is also a good place for a good read, because even the unpublished stories have the right to get read! XD

Well...if any of you like my ideas, tell me and I'll try to post them ASAP! I hope you like my other storys now, and the ones I write in the future! And to the reviews that already review and read my storys: THANK YOU!

And now, my final line

A few quotes I think are very inspiring:

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."--Marianne Williamson

And a little bit of some Les Brown:

"Shoot for the moon, and even if you miss, you'll land amung stars." --Les Brown

-Black Cat Bastet

I'll update soon...
