I have Explorers Of Sky. I've been playing it a lot and was quite happy when I managed to get Vulpix for mine and Eevee for my partner. Its my dream team really and I got it from the start.

I also got a cool daily desk calendar which has dragons. I am trying to promise myself that I won't look ahead.

I got a wonderful doll to from my nan. It's a bit old fashioned, mum says its a bed doll, and Nan was worried I wouldn't like it but I think its wonderful, and it rarely left my side all of christmas day.

Not much else notable I don't think... escept maybe for the beanbag... I can't wait till we have the beans for it.

So thats all Merry christmas to you and don't forget to read my christmas gift to all of my best friends. [link]

What would you like described for christmas? I shall of course choose the ones I think I can. But whether it is a bow or a sword, or something much more modern tell me and I may just include it. You will see what I mean on christmas day.


Edit:

Maybe I wasn't clear enough. I plan to do a written piece for christmas, and in it I wish to contain in it presents for all of you. But I need some direction, because I do not know all of you that well.

I didn't want to give away to much before because I do still want it to be a surprise.

I have though missed posting a chapter of Whispered Futures, I wanted to now let you know that progress on my novel is going well, though slower than before. Much to the horror of my brother I have already thrown two characters over a waterfall, and though I assure him (and you) that they are alright he still says I am being needlessly cruel.

I got my grades back too, an A in Physics and Maths (I was the top student in my level of maths) and a B in chemistry, english and History. At first I was unsure about the B's in english and history, thinking I should be disappointed, but as there were only 2 A's awarded in each class I think it quite the achievement.

But back to Whispered Futures, I am currently debating with myself whether to put it up more regularly At least for a time. One disadvantage of this though is that I may in doing so catch up with myself and it may mean that updates will become more spasmodic. But if I were to catch up with myself it may also be sufficient encouragement to pick up my current rate of writing. I don't know, maybe some of you could help me?


I'm back.

On other news I now have a subscription. I won second place in *Janezy-The-Insanezy's catacombs contest, more than I deserved for that, frankly quite rushed piece. So, anyone got any suggestions for a poll, I really have no Idea.
I'm also trying a new Journal CSS, but I think I prefer the dragons.

As for the tournaments its still a no for InnerStruggle, even if I did have the time I have to a degree lost interest in Visoca. Tallula and Ari still have my interest though so on the first of december I will start writing my Quarantine tourney entry.

That reminds me, for those of you who don't already know, its my birthday on the 1st of December, can't wait, though because I got my netbook earlier this month I won't get as much from my parents as I usually do. This though will be the first year my friends actually remember my birthday though (new school, new friends). And I want to thank them with all my Heart. I'd give them a feature here, but sadly only two have dA and use it for her art. So I'll show you them:

My great Friends

:iconmasked-twilight:

Of Pen and paper

GO hassle her to put up more.

And

:iconassasinqueen:



I have other friends on dA though including
~RakaribellaxEclipse and ~Pink-Sapphire from my current school. I have some good friends online as well, and some friends from other schools but it is these four that I really want to thank, and all the others not on dA

If you are, for whatever reason, creating a piece of artwork for me I have one request, don't look at these first, I will always want YOUR interpretation of my descriptions and will appreciate them whatever differences they may have
