11/8/08 - I miss my senior friends who are now in college. A lot.
10/31/08 - Happy Halloween!! I hope y'all had cool costumes. I was some weird viking techie-person thingy, and the school council dressed up as the Jedi. It made me quite happy indeed. Also: long live NaNoWriMo!!
10/13/08 - Was hired to play for a Church service. Didn't realize that meant getting paid until after the fact. Was pleasantly surprised. Supposed I'd have to get used to it, as quartet is hired a lot. Hooray!

MUSES AND SUCH
I'd like you all to meet the two of the three voices in my head, Aly, and Alex.
HIIIIIIIII!
Hey.
Aly is rather... hyper and happy and energetic and very, VERY, peppy. Alex, on the other hand, is a lot quieter and cynical and somewhat goth. They'll probably show up in the author's notes from time to time.
Oh, and this is my muse, Calaelen. She's the third voice in my head.
Hello, insignificant mortals! MWAHAHAHAHA!
She's sort of kind of... evil, if you couldn't tell. And shehas a little too much fun with the angst... but meh, she's my muse. :hugs her:
Get off of me... NOW.
And let's all meet the fourth voice in my head, Erik!
... Why are you hugging me?
Yup, it's the same Erik from The Phantom of the Opera. And I'm hugging you because YOU'RE SO HAWT EVEN IF YOU HAVE A GIANT RADIATION BURN ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF YOUR FACE! And he's here, inside my mind... Which makes me very happy
Fizzy disappeared for some reason, so now I've got room in my head for one more voice! Who wants to be it? I know...
I'm Captain SYBET LABACH BITCH! Don't forget your brain buddy :P
Sybet Labach, you are now the fifth voice in my head! WOOO!
Xela Tokrub...
... is a girl. (really!)
... is kind of insane and definitely weird. (Aren't we all?)
... finally saw the original Star Wars trilogy and loved it. (The Dark Side calls you... mwahaha.) (hee hee!)
... likes cats.
... has a super-cool website located here. (DON'T DO IT!)
... likes ninjas more than pirates.
... is in love with Terry Pratchett.
... is a geek.(shya! DON'T FORGET I LOVE YOU!)
... wishes she was Scottish.

... used to have a kind of disturbing obsession with Phantom of the Opera, but fortunately, that tapered off.
... likes to talk about herself in the third person. (...That i have not heard...)
... is rabidly attracted to bookstores.
... can be a bit of a pervert at times. (I blame my friends)
... is frickin paranoid.
... has been classified has a Hufflepuff.
... has decided that she is more of a mix between Hufflepuff and Slytherin: A Slytherpuff.
... is kind of hungry. (You anger me)
Random Observations/Theories of Mine:
Note: If you disagree, or if you're curious as to why I feel so, feel free to PM me. The answers might be weird though.
1. Every single person that has ever been born has a birthday in August. Even if they don't.
2. All people named Rebecca (or any variant spelling of that name) play the cello. Even if they don't.
3. Michael Phelps is, in fact, part dolphin.
4. Theatre People are the weirdest type of people on Earth.
RULES:
I know, I know. You guys are all thinking "RULES? WHAT GIVES? SCREW THE RULES, I HAVE MONEY!" But, sadly, this is an important part of my activity on FictionPress. So, here are some of my rules.
1. My updates are sporadic. Always. So please, no reviews that say "UPDATE NOW OR I KEEEEEEEL JOOOOOO PLZKTHNXBAI." There is a little thing called Life that's always interfering with my schedule. And, until I get better at novelling (which is so a word) I'll only do short drabbles and poems. Yeah.
2. Because I am under 18 years old and mature... sort of... a lot of my stuff will be dealing with some pretty mature issues. And be warned; there will probably be swearing, violence, an innuendo or two (or a billion) and other things not suitable for younger people. Pay attention to my ratings.
3. I do not write yaoi or yuri. This is for two reasons. One, I suck at writing romance in general, and two, while I don't have a problem with male/male or female/female, it's just not my thing. BUT, I will experiment every once in a blue moon. So if you're here for consistent slash, get offa my page.
4. I don't write for reviews. Updates do not depend on reviews, although at least five per chapter would be very nice. (Not so subtle hint)
5. Have an idea but don't know if you want to write it? I'd love to hear what it is! Just PM me!
6. Beta-reading status: TAKEN. Sorry, loves.

STORIES
What We're All Here For, Right?
(ToH) Token of Hope: COMPLETE - A short poem based off something my English teacher said while discussing the movie Awakening.
Heroine: COMPLETE - A five page poem I wrote for a project in my seventh grade English class. My teacher gave me an A, a feat damn near impossible. I feel extremely proud of this poem, and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Rhyming is haaaaaaard... (NOTE: NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH THE DRUG HEROIN. I'M TALKING ABOUT A FEMALE HERO, NOT A DRUG. THANK YOU.)
Sculpting: COMPLETE - A short story I wrote for a project on the Italian Renaissance in social studies. It was supposed to be a short story detailing Michelangelo's sculpting process. For the record, I have ABSOLUTELY NO FREAKIN IDEA if he really acted like that. Call it poetic license.
Disbelief: COMPLETE - A true story. My dad's cousin's daughter was killed in the Virginia Tech Massacre. This was written to help get some emotion out.
Angels Never Die: PLANNING - Sybet and I have decided to do a co-written thing. It's about angels, and no, it has nothing to do with TFFG. Not posted yet, will be soon though. I hope.
(BC) Bunny Center: IN PROGRESS - Just a place to put all of my plot bunnies that jump out of my head. All ideas are up for adoption unless otherwise specified. There's gonna be stuff in here that I know I want to continue.
(1) TFFG - Prologue: The balance of power is about to be tipped... but to which side?
(2) A Girl Named Tex: Her name was Tex... and she was gonna let the whole world know it.
(3) Alex Sandwich: Two Alexes plus one Aaron equals hilarity, sugar, and annoying the hell out of Leigh.
(4) Eclipse: It was the end of the world, and she wasn't going to wait for him to show up.
(5) TFFG - Plans: A secret is out, and everything could be screwed up because of it.
(6) Seer - Daydreams: Not really telepathy, but sort of the same idea. Except not really.
(7) Astral Butterflies: She had a secret weakness for butterflies.
(8) Chairs: Chairs are EVIL! EVIL I SAY! ...And no, I'm not crazy.
(9) Abreotan: One word is all it takes... just one word.
(10) Seer - Silver Chain: Things like this did not happen to her, but the evidence was right there on her wrist.
(11) SILENCER: It looked so... real. So alive and real. And so young. I almost pitied it.
Turandot: PLANNING - "She was unattainable, and the large collection of severed heads proved it. A silly exiled prince would meet the same fate as all the rest... right?" For the record, yes, this is Turandot the opera in story form, with some of my bits added in. It's gonna be a fun ride...
(EoF) The Edge of Forever: COMPLETE - The sixth anniversary of 9/11 has come and gone. This is my way of praying for those who lost someone.
(SD) Silver Dust: COMPLETE - A little something I wrote out of boredom when I was in Maine. Enjoy my random musings!
Secrets: IN PROGRESS - Ooh, original title. :shot: Anyway, something I really wish had happened to me in school. Dedicated to Meredith Kennington. And now I've turned it into something of a series. It'll end when the secret is out. And if you have no idea what I'm talking about, you don't go to my school. So don't ask me about it. (I'm onto you, stalkers...)
Footprints: COMPLETE - Mm. Just a random thing.
Pennies: IN PROGRESS - Hey, I like this title. Anyway, this will be the 100 Themes challenge from dA. I know you're supposed to do it for a fandom but... IhadthisreallycoolideaforabunchofthemandnowIwanttodoitforeverythingelse... don't judge me. And it's called "Pennies" 'cos, like, it takes 100 pennies to make a dollar, and there's the old saying, "penny for your thoughts" and... yeah.
52. Deep In Thought - Writer's block sucks.
Hair: IN PROGRESS - A series of shorts heavily inspired by the soundtrack for Hair. And I don't care WHAT you say, THIS IS NOT A FANFICTION. Having gotten that out of the way... it's all from the point of view of some guy who I haven't thought of a name for. It'll probably be something biblical.
Thursday: COMPLETE - Yeah, I had a bit of an off day. So... don't take this too seriously.
(DoL) Differences of Light: IN PROGRESS - The sidekick story! Ta da! Chapters come slowly.
(WPB) Where Poppies Blow: COMPLETE - A Memorial Day tribute.
(SPW) A Study of Poetic Warfare: COMPLETE - My friend JC (not Jesus, as much as I wish it was...) wrote this weird poem on the English board, then he started challenging people to write their own poetry, and... it got crazy.
(NSYA) If I Never See You Again: COMPLETE - I was watching the YA acting class, and their last exercise got me thinking. Also, I tried styling the first part after Neil Gaiman's The Faery Reel. Don't know how well that turned out. You decide.
(TM) Theater Magic: COMPLETE - I love the theater. And Madam Butterfly. This was written in the middle of opera season. I've gone to see Butterfly four times out of four. Yes, I know I'm a nerd.
(OLD) One Lovely Day: COMPLETE - Hahaha, OLD!! That's classic. Anywho, a practice in romance.
“…And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
To show you how it all began,
Birds keep flying from the underground,
If you could see it then you’d understand,
Oh when you see it then you’ll understand…”
