                <description><![CDATA[ I feel AWFUL today. D: I don't ever feel sick like this, but today I am. x__x I feel like I could throw up any second now or something. So what am I doing? Eating Cheez-Its. They're actually settling my stomache. XD <br /><br />So uh. I have new art up? <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> Wolves~ I've been drawing them more and more often. :3 I'm trying to work on anthro forms, mostly, because I admire GoldenWolf insanely andandand yeah. D: I just WISH I was that good.<br /><br />Well, I just finished reading Hannibal, and I have this bizarre desire to write Jonathan and Hannibal meeting one another. XD I'm still trying to figure out how I can manage that without making it seem totally bizarre, but I'm going to make an attempt. They're very similar in my mind; both have that cool calculated attitude, even if one of them is obsessed with fear, and the other with taste. I'll post it up here when I finish it. \o/<br /><br />I guess that's all today. Ciao~<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ÂOften, in writing, one is presented with varying tones. It adds a certain complexity to the piece that people find compelling Â after all, life is never just Â peacefulÂ or ÂragingÂ. There are always underlying emotions, so authors see fit to follow the same. In ÂThe RattlerÂ, the tones of duty and respect reflect the manÂs reluctance to kill the snake, but his understanding of the necessity to do so. For anyone with a reverence for nature itself, this idea isnÂt very surprising. Life is precious, and the man rightly treats it so. The only surprising thing in this particular case is the life that heÂs valuing Â a snake, which many people have a great fear for. Still, he puts aside any alarm or disgust to deal with the issue heÂs been presented with, so he can make the rest of the ranch safe.Â<br /><br />The above paragraph was written for a tone paragraph for a story called ÂThe RattlerÂ. It was supposed to reflect good writing skills, but Mrs. Pittman said it was too flowery and shouldÂve been more concise. Keep in mind that this was supposed to be a paragraph for an AP EXAM. DDDDx<br /><br />Maybe I just REALLY FAIL at taking criticism, but allow me a moment to say WHAT. THE. FUCK. D<<br /><br />Hell to the no. ThatÂs one of the best paragraphs IÂve written, and itÂs filled with my voice. You know what she gave me? AN 86. DX AN 86, I TELL YOU. Just thinking that other students may have been far simpler and gotten a better grade pisses me off like nothing else. I was taught to give your reader a HOOK to lead up to the paragraph youÂre presenting. <br /><br />Argh. IÂm so ticked off about this mess. Dx Âfumes-<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ IÂve been given a light in my eyes to show me some reality. And IÂve made a decision. I want a hero in my life. I want to marry a Spiderman. Yeah, that sounds absolutely ridiculous. But if you look at Spiderman and how he treats his MJ, wellÂ WhatÂs not to love about that? He loves her more than anything else, and she supports him, no matter what. ItÂs a fantastic thing. I want that in life.<br /><br />So, week one of being Âstable pikachu soulÂ has gone well. Thinking of Zephyr in this form that has been ÂmineÂ as long as I can remember is so incredibly comforting. Plus, if itÂs analyzed, I donÂt find it too different from how I feel right now. IÂm still social, still warm, and still kind to the people who love me Â none of that has changed. But IÂm also more prepared for challenges, ready to give a shock to anybody who thinks they can handle me wrong. Most people wouldnÂt find a pikachu inspiring, but my sparky dÃ¦mon is fantastic. I may end up reverting back to a beagle though. I donÂt really know that IÂve changed THAT dramatically. I just think I need a break from being ÂdefinedÂ.<br /><br />Also, English is proving to still be my favorite class so far. I overwhelmingly love our assignments Â up to now, I havenÂt been faced with anything that I canÂt absolutely stand. That could change (we have a college application thing due Monday), but right now itÂs pleasurable. IÂm doing well, and the lessons in tone are a mix between informational and review. Not to mention IÂve become a bit more outgoing (ie, signing up for Journalism and saying Âscrew Alex Thompson, he can use me if heÂs smart&#148<img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> and thatÂs always a good thing. ThatÂs my campaign, right? <br /><br />And it worked, too. (Which also counts.) He ended up putting me up as a Creative Writing section for the Newspaper, which is good. That fuels my talents. \o/<br />ÂI donÂt update my journal enough. D: I guess itÂs because IÂm SO DAMN LAZY. *is lazy* <br /><br />Uhh. IÂm finishing up my end of an Art Trade. A POKEÂMON one. 8D She did my Pika (and itÂs fantastic, too <3) and IÂm doing two poocheyna for her. I worry that mine wonÂt be as good, since mineÂs traditional, butÂ IÂm trying my best. D: WRITING IS MY TALENT. Doodling is my obsession.<br /><br />Jess Â ÂAnd 99 red balloons go by.Â <3<br />Mary Â ÂDoctor, doctor, give me the news. IÂve got a bad case of loving you.Â ;D<br />Kris Â ÂEvery little thing you do is tragic.Â Â One poet to another? (Your lyrics were hard to find. D: )<br />And last, but definitely not least, Anders Â ÂIÂm living for the only thing I know, IÂm running and not quite sure where to go, and I donÂt know what IÂm tapping into, hanging by a moment here with you.Â :3<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Why am I posting another journal so soon? Because of my intense paranoia. XD I'm worried that I insulted some people with my last one, so I don't want it on my main page anymore.<br /><br /><<<br />>><br /><br />What? I hate thinking that I might've upset somebody. Really, it wasn't meant to offend anyone. It was simply my opinion. And if it sounded angry, it really wasn't. Admittedly I was frustrated, but not angry. Call me a coward if you want, but I don't like that I might've accidently offended someone. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=(" title="=( (Sad)" /> Some of you know me well enough to understand that I meant no offense, and some of you don't. So new journal comes.<br /><br />But seriously, damn, I'm self-concious as hell, ya'll. I am. If someone says ANYTHING about not liking my Jonathan, I become way obsessive and comb over his character. =/ Call it silly, but I take my roleplaying very seriously. And especially now, since I've seen people roleplay him that are like... Way better. Before it was just me. And I'm intensely paranoid about it. If I see someone complaining about Cillian!Scarecrow, I automatically want to start stammering apologies. If someone says they prefer double-personality!Scarecrow, I feel guilty and want to explain my reasoning. Because yes, it's my interpretation of the character, but if other people aren't ENJOYING my interpretation, then what the hell is the point? D:<br /><br />...That being said, don't hesitate to tell me if you seriously think I'm doing something wrong, either. XD I'm a weird person. Oh well. I can't even try to explain my reasoning. x)<br /><br />...Damn. More silly rambles.<br /><br />...<br />OH!<br />Haha. Funny moment yesterday. /attempt at topic chang<br /><br />We were in JROTC, and we were talking about candles, right?<br />...<br />No, wait.<br />I'm not sure I want to tell that story either.<br /><<<br />>><br />There are people on here who know me in real life, and if I EXPLAIN that... Oh heck no.<br />*flees*<br />-Todd<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm more than aware that there's nothing I can do about all the Jonathan Crane slash. But I can state my opinion, right?<br /><br />I think it's ridiculous. )=<br /><br />I'm not a massive fan of //, really, but some I can understand. Joker x Batman? SURE. Because the Joker has this weird obsession with Batman, and the Joker is Batsy biggest enemy.<br />THAT CAN BE TURNED INTO SOME SLASH.<br /><br />And the Riddler x Joker? I'd go as far as to say I endorse it, if only because Britt and Jack (AHHH, YOU PEOPLE ARE EVIL). <br /><br />But really? Jonathan x Joker? Jonathan x Schiff? Jonathan x Batman?<br />It doesn't make sense, guys. It really doesn't. Especially the second one, geez, Schiff had what... One scene? =/ It's silly and ridiculous. And the JOKER and Jonathan? They HATE each other. D: Joker bashed Jonathan's head in with a chair. And Batman x Jonathan is the closest, but their personalities just don't really mesh.<br /><br />But that's only one girl's opinion. Think of it what you will. But I keep stumbling across fanfiction that does slash pairings with Jonathan.<br /><br />...I'd rather see Jonathan x Rachel. And I HATE Jonathan x Rachel. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=(" title="=( (Sad)" /><br />Pair him with Linda. It's the best canon pairing ever.<br />(Alice x Jonathan is OTP though. ;D Trufax.)<br /><br />...<br />RYN<br />MARY<br />IRIS<br /><br />Look, I mentioned you all.<br />-Todd<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ...Wow, I only have 10 journal entries here. I SHOULD WRITE MORE JOURNALS, WHAT. XD<br /><br />But I'm so incredibly lazy.<br /><br />I always feel obligated to write a journal here, though, after I add art. <br /><<<br />>><br />It's weird. I don't know why. BUT WHO CARES? 8D<br /><br />I may add some more poetry today or tomorrow. But my laziness prohibits such things. Ah, well. I may go grab my book after I finish this. /is so lazy<br /><br />So, my most recent poem, Tea for Two, was written due somewhat to the following conversation:<br /><br />Me: You may not know it, Katie, but I love you, girl. <3 I may be a bit scatterbrained sometimes, but I really do.<br />Katie: YOU'RE scatterbrained?<br />Me: ...Okay we both are.<br />Katie: I'd say so.<br />Me: We can't help it! We're each caught in our own little Wonderlands, living in our seperate realities. It's why we understand each other so well! Because we know what it means to live in a world of FANTASY. *dramatic hand flourish*<br />Katie: EXACTLY! <br />Me: Each of us our OWN Alice, stumbling down seperate rabbit holes, and entertaining our OWN Mad Hatters. But it's all the same Tea Party, really.<br />Katie: ...<br />Me: Dammit, I carried that metaphor too far, didn't I?<br />Katie: Maybe a little.<br /><br />XD It was a lovely conversation. I think there was more to the chat than that, but I can't remember it. /useless<br /><br /><br />I'm also doing journal entries for English, and it's pretty sad when the vast majority of your roleplay entries are you giving a summary of your roleplay. XD;; (MARY MAY KILL ME FOR THAT, EEEEEEE.) I'm obsessed, I guess. ADDICTED HOPELESSLY TO MARY AND HER ALICE.<br /><br />Also, my phone is gone.<br /><<<br />>><br />It makes me sad.<br /><br />*ninjas away*<br /><br />~Jessie/Todd<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I should be doing my work, but don't worry, I'll get to it right after this (IRIS, BECAUSE I KNOW YOU WERE ABOUT TO SCOLD ME). I just haven't updated here in a while, thoguht I'd throw this out there. :3<br /><br />Let's see... I saw Red Eye for the first time last night. Omg, it was wonnndeerful. Of course, I'm ragingly biased in Cillian Murphy's favor, and he plays Jackson sososo well. I would be incredibly creeped out and yet incredibly drawn in by those beautiful blue eyes. ;___; I got some weird looks from my brother when he said to Lisa, "Save you a seat?" and smiled at her. I started grinning like an idiot. And then she HESITATED. I mean, c'mon! He can save me a seat /anytime/. ANYTIME, BABY. And then the whole "...Wait... You aren't... Stalking me, are you? ...<<...>>" XD I was like "OH MAN, I WISH." <br />But seriously, though, great movie, even if you have no idea who Murphy is (WHICH IS A SHAME, MIGHT I ADD, BECAUSE HE'S SEXY AND IRISH); it's a thriller of epic proportions. 83<br /><br />Uhm... I should add something else worth merit here, but I cannot think of a single thing. D: Sorry. Oh well. ;D YOU GAIZ LOVE MEH ANYWAYS.<br />*zips off*<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ If you know anything about me recently, then you know I've become obsessed with Batman. XD And anyone who didn't know this is probably surprised. But what can I say? I look up to authority and the idea of a masked vigilante appeals to me.<br /><br />My newest past time is roleplaying with the lovely girl you'll see posting on my pages - that is, Mary. <3 I've developed an affinity for dear Jonathan Crane, who is well-known as the Scarecrow in the Batman universe, and our beloved roleplay between him and her Original Character, Alice, is great fun. Even now, I'm waiting for a reply from her. x3 Because I'm obsessed.<br /><br />But seriously, I've been thinking about how most people have a favorite villain. And I think something can be said about a person by which Batman villain is their favorite.<br />For example:<br />Those who enjoy the Joker are probably either very flamboyant and outgoing theirselves, or have a desire to be so.<br />Those who, like me, enjoy Scarecrow, have probably been teased and taunted in their lifetime - which applies to me, certainly, because I still have to fight personal insecurity in high school.<br />People who like the Riddler are likely to enjoy mental challenges and perhaps are over-achievers, striving towards goals that others may see as impossible.<br /><br />Of course this doesn't always apply. And there are many more villains than those three; those are just the ones that came into my head first.<br /><br />rantrantrantramble.<br />XD<br /><br />~Jessie<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ HEY, PEOPLE, REQUEST SOMETHING FROM ME.<br />^This was moved from the bottom of my journal, to the top, so that when people preview my journal, they'll see it, and won't have to read the whole thing. XD<br /><br />I'm updating this, mostly because I don't like coming on to my page and being reminded of that every time. It still makes me mad and I prefer to not have to think about it every time I wanna go look at my main page. =/<br /><br />Hm.<br />My mood is "Yearning", although that doesn't quite fit what I'm feeling right now. I think "Nostaligic" might be better, but I don't think that's an option. Although I'm tempted to go try to hunt for it. Nah.<br />But, yeah, I dunno, it's a weird feeling. It's friday, I'm excited, I'm happy, but I'm also in class, which means I'm reminded about one of my current... Problems, when it comes to emotional issues. Mostly thanks to this guy in my class, who I'd prefer not to name, who I constantly flip between being charmed by and being irritated by. I don't like the churning emotion that his presence channels, so I seclude myself to the computer to escape. <<;;<br /><br />Forgotten randomly popped into my head, while I was sitting in Algebra class. I actually couldn't remember the name, but this is the stanza that hit me:<br /><br />ThereÂs a place so dark you <br />canÂt see the end <br />Skies cock back and shock <br />that which canÂt defend <br />The rain then sends <br />dripping / liquid question <br />Forcefully, the power of suggestion <br />Then with the eyes shut / looking <br />thought the rust and rot <br />And dust / a small spot of <br />light floods the floor <br />And pours over the rusted world of pretend <br />The eyes ease open and its dark again <br /><br />It's a great song, it really is. <3<br /><br />Dragonquest is what I'm reading right now, sort of. But I haven't picked it up lately. I just haven't been in a Pern mood.<br /><br />nananananananananana!BATMAN. Whoo~ I flip between watching various ones, though I'm pretty fond of the cartoon "The Batman".<br /><br /><br />...<br />I've rambled quite enough, I think. Long enough for me to be satisfied with this journal entry.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ You know what? I'm sure bad things happen to bad people, but they probably deserve it. When bad things happen to good people, it ticks me off. D<<br /><br />My rant, also posted on TDF, for your viewing pleasure:<br />"You know what? I wanted so bad to believe that you werenÂt a bad person. Because, even though it took a long time for you to win me over, I did like you. You and I could spend hours up at night, just chatting back and forth, rambling about things from the sadness of Heath LedgerÂs death to peer pressure Â anything we had in common at all. And thatÂs what kills me. During that same conversation, we discussed my father and your marriage, and how everything was going sour. You swore to me that there was nobody else, that you really did want to work it out and that you thought a little time of separation was necessary.<br /><br />But how long as this been going on?<br /><br />Were you saying all that to me, knowing that later that week, youÂd be going to his house? Did you know that your daughter Â my stepsister, but in every since my real sister, I care for that girl so much Â has been troubled and suffering over something that she didnÂt want to tell me about? She may not have even known what exactly was going on, but know that I know that youÂve been running around, thereÂs no other explanation for it. What kind of suffering has SHE gone through, trying to hide your dirty secret from the people she loves? She doesnÂt deserve any of this! Divorce (which was probably inevitable even BEFORE Daddy found out) is bad enough without finding out that your mother was running around on a man that youÂd grown very fond of. SHE DOESNÂT DESERVE IT.<br /><br />And if SHE doesnÂt deserve it, well, what about my father? My gosh, he did worked his tail off trying to please you and make you happy. Anything you wanted, it was yours, he made sure of it. He spent hours on weekends to fix things around the house; went and bought you a new HD television because your big-screen was too fuzzy; got you a laptop, even though you had a perfectly good desktop; built you a new deck out back because you said the old one wasnÂt good enough; bought you a 300$ dog, when most people wouldÂve picked up a puppy from a pound. And he TRIED to spend time with you. When you hole yourself up in your room, claiming that you donÂt feel well, or that you donÂt feel like socializing, well, whatÂs he SUPPOSED to do? If he persisted, you got angry with him.<br /><br />HeÂs a good man. Way better than most. And you know what? -You didnÂt deserve him.-"<br /><br />---<br /><br />I'm SO mad right now, omg.<br /><<<br />>><br /><br /><br /><br />---<br /><br />Also, I want to give a shout-out of love to my Iris and to my Mary. <3 <3 <3<br />Maryyy, I'll try to upload the JonnyXAlice pic soon, m'kay? :3<br /><br />---<br /><br />Also, I'm totally up for taking requests right now, because I want to draw so badly. XD<br />Chuck them at me, guys. I can't guarantee quality, but I can give you SOMETHING.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yeah. I'm really nervous about posting this. Because Iris will know who I'm talking about. ;_______; But I've GOT TO. Because I need advice on what to do.<br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------<br />Yep. So, recently, Iris has been hanging out more with a guy that I have kinda sorta maybe had a crush on for a while. Not a huge crush, mind you, not like I did with the last guy. Just a 'aw, he's so cute' kinda crush. Yeahhh... So, the more she hangs out with him, the more I get to hang out with him. And I've kinda got to like him more. =/ But there's a problem with this.<br /><br />1) Iris is REALLY good friends with him, like best friends. She told me she'd never date him because she doesn't want to mess up their friendship. I've been afraid that, if I liked him, then it would definately cause problems for her if we were to date then break up. I'd never want to cause problems for her. ;_____;<br /><br />2) Even if I wasn't worried about #1, which I definately am (that's why it's #1), I don't think he'd date me anyways. Maybe I have WAY too many self esteem issues. But I get the feeling that it's true. He wouldn't. He's just too cute and too nice; he could date practically anyone he wanted to. And I know he's not going to pick me. Because I know he liked someone else recently and, before that, a different person. I mean... *pokes fingers together* I just know he won't.<br /><br /><br />I mean, I would have tried to ignore everything, except the fact that my mom really likes him and is constantly trying to get me to ask him out. It really doesn't help things. I'll mention him BARELY and she's like 'oh, you should just ask him out and get it over with, really'. And she's constantly dropping hints like, 'he's so adorable' etc. etc.<br /><br />I have no idea what to do. Bleh. xP I feel kinda bad just posting this, like I've did something wrong. But I don't think I have...<br /><br />You know, Iris, I don't know why I don't directly address this to you, because you're the only one that ever answers on these things. TT___________TT<br />Give me your worldly advice and tell me that you dont' hate me, plz, kthnx.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

A Friend Can Trust.<br />
<br />
:3<br />
<br />
I just felt like writing that.<br />
<br />
I've got about 10 minutes before I leave to do my flag Colors, so I thought I'd type up a little random journal entry here...<br />
<br />
So, I've stolen my crush's keys. The only way he can get them back is if he gets down on his knees and begs. :3 But he has a super-inflated male ego and won't. xD Guess I have a new set of keys.<br />
<br />
Also, I'm still open for requests. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> I'm best at plushie/chibi work, but I'm trying wolves at the moment... And it may take a while for me to get it on to the computer. But please, please request!<br />
<br />
Current Requests:<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ *sigh* I NEED to get some deviations up on here. Seriously. How else is my amazing talent going to get known? xDDD But really... So, just because of that, I'm going to set this up, even though I have no drawings on here yet. You'll just have to trust me.<br />
<br />
<br />
Requests: DEFINATELY OPEN. I want some stuff to draw. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br />
<br />
Trades: Unlikely that they'll be asked for, but I will do them.<br />
<br />
Commissions: No. I'm not going to make people pay for my work. Yet.<br />
<br />
So that's it, I think. xDD<br />
<br />
<br />
------------------------------------------------------<br />
So then, those of you more interested in my personal life...<br />
<br />
My crush is yet to admit his undying love for me. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> That makes me a little depressed, even if he does flirt with me all the time... xDDD Just thought I'd post that on here.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
<br />
Yeah, so, it was tacky day today. Well, I pwn at tacky day. ((yes, yes, thank you.)) I declared myself Queen of Tacky today at school. The rest of the school were my loyal subjects. So IRIS decides to copy me. *prods her violently and growls* She wanted to be Queen. But I declared it first.<br />
<br />
So, anyways, I wore... A bunch of stuff and I don't feel like writing it all down. But I do have Jacob's hat! *pumps fist into air* And he doesn't get it back until Monday! *does a little dance*<br />
<br />
So, yeah. We're on special bell schedule and I have fourth lunch. So by the time fourth lunch rolls around I'm STARVING. >_< I bolted down those steps faster than a weenie dog confronted with ketchup. It was like... *ZIP*<br />
<br />
*coughs* I'm trying to write a really long journal. But I'm not so good at it. Hm...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

The truck is ebil, and it's female. Because it kinda has this personality like, hey, if I don't wanna go I'm not gonna. I went to drive around in a graveyard, which was a lot of fun. I left skid marks on the pavement. xD<br /><br /> ]]></description>
