I read way too much for my own good. I'm never happy without a good book in my hands. I haven't finished a long story yet but I promise that someday I will. I've only been writing for about two years. I really hope that my writing gets better as I get older.

8/21/08 - I wrote my first fanfiction for Naruto. I actually dreamed about it, twice.

Crystal of Enchantment

With her powerful crystal, the enchantress conjures spell-binding magic.
Gramophone horns transform into morning glories pouring forth heavenly
melodies and great ships sail from seashells to a land where fairies play.
The whole world is radiant with the magical light and all-encompassing
love that flows from her powerful spirit.

Shared Treasure

To each of us, the magical seashell whispers a different ocean song.
Some of us hear simply the soft comforting hush of currents rushing by.
Others see in their mind's eye images of little mermaid children playing
with dolphins and glistening shell chariots racing, drawn by sea unicorns
and guarded by none other than King Neptune himself.
Let each of us listen to the magic song we hear and share it with
those we love.

Shell Child

With her magical helmet,
the shell child can breathe underwater.
The ocean is her playground as she
explores coral grottoes,
plays with exotic fish,
and feeds her sea unicorn friends.

Experience

The best thing about the future is that it happens one day at time.

~Be~

In a world where you can be anything, be yourself.

Accept

To find happiness in life, you must first be happy with yourself.

~Persist~

If you want the rainbow, you have to put up with the rain.

Dreams

Fall back into the dream you left behind.

~Imagine~

If you can imagine it, it can come true.

Shine

It's not as important to be something as it is to be someone.

~Reach~

Some stars truly are close enough to touch, but only if you reach for them.

Me with my head down and not really paying attention says,"PMS."
She starts writing and saying the letters,"P...M...Hey wait a minute!"
I, just realizing that I had actually said it out loud and she actually wrote it,
broke out laughing while drinking my chocolate milk. Which results in me having a
trying to laugh and stop choking at the same time. Doesn't work. It took me 5 minutes
to finally calm down. But it was brilliant.

Heero is working on a computer sitting atop his Gundam
Heero Yuy: Insulation, section 2-6-0-0: repairs are possible.
Duo approaches from offscreen
Duo Maxwell: Hey, you! I'm callin' you!
Heero looks at Duo, then turns back to the computer screen
Duo Maxwell: You won't even acknowledge our help. Here I am, Mr. Niceguy, offerin' to fix your mobile suit with mine, but you just brush me right off.
continues typing Heero Yuy: I don't want anybody touching my mobile suit. That's all, pal.
with a mocking snort Duo Maxwell: Well, that's a joke: you haven't even got the parts.
Duo vaults onto the torso of the Gundam with a grunt and sits on the edge
Duo Maxwell: Even the best engineers in the world couldn't repair machines without the parts... Mechanics need parts for repairs, not like you with your leg. You see what I'm sayin'?
silence Heero Yuy:
Continues working, apparently ignoring Duo
sighs heavily Starts muttering to himself and gets progressively louder Duo Maxwell: Why did I even bother rescuing this guy in the first place? He's antisocial, thinks he's Eval Knieval, and hardly speaks!
groans
Duo Maxwell: You've got such a gloomy personality, why don't you just give up and stop pretending to be human?
Turns to Duo Heero Yuy: Hey!
Duo Maxwell: What is it? You're too late if you think you're gonna ask for my help.
Heero Yuy: Could you keep it down over there?
Duo Maxwell: Yeah... Sure, forgive me for interrupting.
a notice alarm goes off in the cockpit of the Gundam. Heero drops in and pulls up a console while Duo leans inside
Duo Maxwell: What is it?
Heero Yuy: I'm on call: an enemy carrier is transporting gundanium alloy. I'll see to it first thing in the morning.
Duo Maxwell: Hey! You can't go anywhere with your machine in this shape! We're talkin' miracles, here!
Heero Yuy: It's take a miracle for you, but I can handle it.
stands up and begins walking away Duo Maxwell: Well, excuse me for being a mere mortal.
