                <description><![CDATA[ Maybe a bit of the old competitive spirit will get me up in the high hopes again. After all, everyone loves to color like a two-year-old every so often.<br /><br />My little contest may not offer a subscription being I could never afford one, or any kind of fancy-pants things, but I could most definitely do art of your choice. I could do most anything, but I am not that good with animals or anthro characters... I slightly detest the 'furry' creature-humanoid things. Anyway... I will post a scribble-picture, and you may color it! But, only my friends and watchers may do this, being that I do not want strangers taking my random work and claiming it as their own. That would be a tragedy for them, because I tend to be a bit of a hunter.<br /><br />So, yes. I can post a picture, and you will color it. If you do not have photoshop or any of the likes, there is a simple solution: PRINT AND COLOR! Print out the picture and color it with colored pencils! Who knows, it could look three times as amazing as computer graphics! I would greatly appreciate at least two people to try their hand at this, and I do need something to draw being as I cannot think anything up for the life of me... If I am lucky to have more than three competitors, then I will do first, second and third place runners up and do pictures for all three of them. It is the least I can offer.<br /><br />Please, take a bit of time to mull this over and either note me or comment if you want to join in.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I cannot waste the time to think of a title for this... Crap. I have hidden so much pain behind this smile of mine, and I simply cannot let it out. I have tried to convince myself to talk to someone, and I know I have friends whom I can trust and talk to... However, I am much too afraid of everything around me to open my mouth and talk! This whole life of mine is a mess and I need to fix it, I need to do something about myself. I am often misunderstood and scorned for being who I am and liking what I like, and I find that it is wiser to keep my mouth shut and not talk about myself around my so called friends.<br /><br />I do not know what else to do, I have confronted my mother and all she has told me was to do my work and try to fix things myself. That was not the answer or comfort I needed, and I really... I really need something right now to get rid of all this pent up anger, depression, sadness, pain and yearning. My next step is to see a therapist.<br /><br />My mind is also telling me that another reason why I am so unhappy is my body. I hate how I look and I hate my body. I hate being a girl. I do not fit in at all. I feel that I was meant to be born in the body of a boy, not a girl, and it hurts. If and when I do manage to get the money, or I reach the age where I still feel this way, there is nothing stopping me from changing my gender... I do not want to be a girl, at all. I know this sounds completely outrageous to some of the friends who actually know me, but to those who take the time to consider how I feel, and those who have known me for a long time might realize that I am not just saying this because I am a lesbian or I like girls. If one were to look at the body I have and to look at me from a distance, I look like a boy. I enjoy looking and acting like a boy. My parents tell me to act like a young lady, I do not want to, I act like a boy.<br /><br />I have spoken to me aunt about this many a time, and she has told me that if it is what I truly want, that I should do it, and I will do it. I am prepared to lose many friends because of my insane decision making, but it is who I want to be... I will not let anyone control me ever again. I can say, fuck society and fuck everyone else, all my emotions have finally broken my calm smile that I had behind and I have driven myself into a ten foot deep hole. I have finally snapped. My heart has been broken so many times, I have been backstabbed so many times, I have been HURT one too many times. I am fed up with everything, and now I have gotten it off my chest.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It seems that lately the stress of every single thing I do is becoming insurmountable. I do not know why, or how, this has happened. It seems I have driven myself into a corner of which I cannot escape, all my past mistakes and trials weighing heavily upon my shoulders. It thus making me suffer depression. Behind this I hid with a smile and a wave, a healthy conscience of which relied on my friends to aid me. Yet, ever so regretfully I have dragged myself away from them and the laughter which I once took part in no longer aids my aching heart.<br /><br />A friend is what I seek, someone to actually be there for me, which I know I might find in any of those who I surround myself with... However not one person could sooth this pain until I overcome it myself, and that is to let go of my past infatuation with a vague figure. Not family nor close friend was this person, and it hurt me ever so when we let go. I know that at with my current aspirations that my dreams will never come true, and this struggling economy will drive me to insanity. So I ask, what has happened to me?<br /><br />Something terrible. Of course I will soon fix this, I wish to do so, and I must seek the comfort of my friends and family in order to overcome this pain. I do love you all so dearly and I will continue to hide this with a smile and a wave, and spill my broken hearts' emotions to whomever offers their open arms to me, or to whoever I know will break my fall.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hello everyone. I know I have not been updating regularly, but a lot has been going on in the past two weeks. I was lucky enough to get the last few pictures up.<br /><br />Earlier this month I was told I was going in for surgery. I dreaded it greatly being that we can not afford much and the surgery itself would be painstakingly long, also that I was gravely afraid of going under the knife.<br /><br />But I am very glad to say that the surgery went well and that I will be alright, just as long as I do not stress myself or strain my body in any which way. I do try not to, but, as I am known to be, I am easily excited.<br /><br />I will take this chance to wish you all a merry late Christmas, I hope you all enjoyed your day, and a happy New Year.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ All of you might have noticed how I am rarely on deviantART anymore. Only a few drawings here and there, but not as much compared to how I used to log on everyday and say hello to all of my friends in the chats. But I am possibly no longer able to do this. Nor even log on at rare occasions to say hello to whomever is there.<br /><br />It seems that I have let myself slip from reality, thus leading to most of my classes being failed. I have tried hard, but there is just so much that I am going through, trying to be a good daughter, sister, and girlfriend, that I neglected my schoolwork. So, I am now going to take a partial vacation from the computer and most other things, and concentrate on trying to be there for my girlfriend, and also pass my schooling.<br /><br />I do realize that I also might be a very annoying significant other, which worries me to no end. If I do not text you, that you and I will drift apart until there is nothing left, but if I text you and talk too much, that you will want to ignore me, and end up leaving me. Now I realize that these thoughts are merely paranoia, and that you, Kaity, are not shallow. I am indeed foolish to think those things, that you would ever do that, but it does happen. I do hope we get to spend more time together.<br /><br />As for my friends that I have made here, do expect me to drop by, but at much rarer times than before. Of course, I will be on AIM for those who need to know how to contact me. I should be on via phone, but sometimes I cannot, due to the charge they put on the instant messenger services. Verizon provider is indeed a very greedy and cheap one. But thanks to the Verizon to Verizon phone contact, I can text my girlfriend without worry. If anyone has a Verizon phone and would wish to remain in strong contact with me, note me if needed.<br /><br />And Kaity, if you are indeed reading this, I will explain it in more detail when we see each other again, or the next time I call. It is a very long and complicated story.<br /><br />Thank you for checking my updates, friends, and I hope to talk to you all again soon.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Recently, I watched a show on G4 called Wired for Sex. It talked about fetishes and all the likes. So, I began thinking on what basically turns me on majorly, or even just a bit.<br /><br />I discovered, that ever since I was probably five, I wore chained pants that made me feel pretty much happy with myself. I like the sound of the metal clinking and the feel of the cold chains against my legs. I mean, yeah, it seems a bit common for Gothic people, but the Goth style turns me on so much it's like D<!!! Sometimes I'll be attracted to those girls who wear tighter jeans with the faded blackness and the single wallet-chain, but then again, it doesn't suit me that well...<br /><br />Might just be me, though, because I AM a middle piece to every [FEMALE'S] puzzle. In other words, I'll be on top OR bottom. But personally, I enjoy being on the bottom more often than none. I mean, with certain people that WANT to dominate me it's fine. I kind of like it. More on that, I like it when they'd pull me around by the chains, or wrapped teh chains around me and had their way with me. I find it pretty much a big <!--removed by scanning subsystem-->in' turn on to be in that situation. I assume you could say I was into S&M then, but eh... I think I might be. I feel as if it is a big fetish for me, but I just wonder how people will view me knowing that I like such a thing? Oh well.<br /><br />So yeah, I think I discovered teh fetish which I haven't been aware of for almost... Nine, ten years. so yeah. I even wonder how many people would possibly be attracted to me because of it :C Hmm..<br /><br />And here's something fun for all of you! I'm going to tage ten people in this journal and they will have to reply WITH THEIR VERY OWN FETISH JOURNAL!! XD I'm being evil so, DO EET. Or I will eat you D<<br /><br />Ten people: <a href="http://paranoied-death.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/p/a/paranoied-death.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconparanoied-death:" title="paranoied-death"/></a> <a href="http://snowtool.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/n/snowtool.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconsnowtool:" title="snowtool"/></a> <a href="http://flclover.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/f/l/flclover.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconflclover:" title="flclover"/></a> <a href="http://romaji.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/o/romaji.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconromaji:" title="romaji"/></a> <a href="http://reneedawn.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/e/reneedawn.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconreneedawn:" title="reneedawn"/></a> <a href="http://repairbay.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/e/repairbay.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconrepairbay:" title="repairbay"/></a> <a href="http://tokyo-angel.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/o/tokyo-angel.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":icontokyo-angel:" title="tokyo-angel"/></a> <a href="http://joshinu-panther.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/j/o/joshinu-panther.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconjoshinu-panther:" title="joshinu-panther"/></a> <a href="http://trickymonkey.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/r/trickymonkey.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":icontrickymonkey:" title="trickymonkey"/></a> <a href="http://mifang.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/i/mifang.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconmifang:" title="mifang"/></a><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I know this is understandably late... But I have to have some sort of memorial for her.<br /><br />The previous week on Wednesday, January 23rd, I received a phone call from the hospital telling me that my twin sister, Natalie, had a heart attack during school and was in the hospital. When I had gotten there, she seemed to be just fine, so Persephone and I left to go home. On thursday we visited again, and her condition was no different than before. So again, we stayed for a few hours with her then went home.<br /><br />Unfortunately, on friday, January 25th, Natalie had suffered another heart attack, leading to her passing away while I was at church. Persephone was with her the whole time and had witnessed her death. Natalie was fourteen years old and still in her young phase.  My other sibling and I have been hit hard by this loss, being it was much too soon to lose another part of our family.<br /><br />We will miss Natalie gravely, but we know now that she is up in heaven with Angel.<br /><br />We love you, Natalie Cassidy.

                <description><![CDATA[ June 5, 1993 - December 5, 2006.<br />
<br />
Some of you may have known that one year to this day at 9:47 AM, my twin sister Angel died of coronary cancer. This journal is dedicated to her in hopes that she is up in heaven, watching over us right now.<br />
<br />
After reading this, most will now understand why I dreaded the coming of this December, and why I said I loathed this month. I still can't believe it's been one year since then, and we've been without her for so long. The fact that we all vowed that once we turned fourteen, which was last June, we'd finally go to our hometown in Japan with our cousin as a birthday gift and it couldn't happen made me realize how empty we were without her.<br />
<br />
Our joke was the time we each had one quarter, and we wanted to buy a soda which was a dollar. We each gave a quarter to buy that soda. Angel said "Hey, we're like those four quarters, and this soda signifies our sisterhood." We would always say "We're the four quarters that baught us that soda!" Of course, we shared it, four straws, one can. We did everything together. Every little thing. We always had to be in the same classes, we weren't seperable... But I guess we were wrong in that case.<br />
<br />
Her death was all too sudden... One second we were horsing around, then the next she was on the floor convulsing from a major seizure. I sat in the hospital for ten hours, holding her hand, begging God to let her live. I felt her die, and that was the worst part of it. Persephone and Natalie were too afraid to face the fact that Angel was now gone. She looked wrong in the casket, and even worse in the ground.<br />
<br />
I know she wants us to be happy, even without us, because she was the smartest, kindest, and prettiest of the four of us. Angel had a girlfriend that was much older than her, but she loved her regardless, and never got the chance to tell her she loved her before she left. And I know she is also watching over her. <br />
<br />
WE LOVE YOU, ANGEL.<br /><br /> ]]></description>
