                <description><![CDATA[ I got a puppy for Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  He is sooooooo adorable.  I love him so much!  His name is, don't laugh, "Fuggles" <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/g/giggle.gif" width="17" height="15" alt=":giggle:" title="Giggle" />.  It's been a really busy weekend dealing with him, but he is so sweet and so good that I don't even care.  He's grown really attached to me and needs to always be by my side.  <br /><br />Things have been busy all around; school, home, etc......  Hopefully after Christmas, things are gonna slow down.<br /><br />Will post some more poems and probably tons of pictures of Fuggles soon.  It depends on when I have the time to do it.<br /><br />Happy Holidays!!!!<br /><br />-Ed<img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

Well, thank you everyone!  I couldn't have done it without you.  And I thank my watchers for giving me support, friendship, and sometimes just a bit of kindness!  I am humbled. <br /><br />I will be posting 2-3 poems that I have finished for the 100+ theme challenge I am undertaking either tonight or tomorrow.  I will also be writing poetry for my AP English class, so be prepared for some poetry!!! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w00t.gif" width="23" height="23" alt=":w00t:" title="w00t!" />  I will also be posting some parts of the story Mel and I are writing.  I'm going to post my parts that I have written, while she can post hers on her account if she wants to.  Just gotta get the notebook back after break, so I can borrow it.<br /><br />Been reading books about dysfunctional families like virgin suicides, running with scissors, etc recently.  I wonder why....I've been really moody recently. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/shrug2.gif" width="19" height="19" alt=":shrug:" title="Shrug" /><br /><br /><br />Also, having a good time with my boyfriend. I have gone over to his house twice and it was nice.  We seem to be a cute couple, or at least everyone says so.  Gotta invite him over to my place soon, but I have to get a time set up first...<br /><br />-Ed <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><br /></div></div><br /><div class="footer"><div class="footerleft"><div class="footerright"></div><br /></div></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <div class="leftcolumn"><div class="rightcolumn"><br /><br />I decided that I am going to be doing a theme challenge to help me get over my writers block and to be able to post more stuff on here.  It will be more from the 100 theme challenge because I put a bunch of them together.  My first theme is introduction...gonna have to figure out a poem to write about that.<br /><br />In other news, I changed my hair color!  I used some dye remover and it changed my hair into a gingery/gold color that makes me look like Light from Death Note.  Going to buy some more of remover to get rid of this icky color...<img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/p/puke.gif" width="24" height="15" alt=":puke:" title="I think I am going to PUKE!" />  Plus, I have a psych project coming up and I want my hair to be a natural color, instead of a crimson red, which was fading anyways.<br /><br />Thanksgiving was great.  My mom is such a good cook and makes the best thanksgiving dinner EVAR!!!  Parade was kinda crappy this year, so I just helped my mom cook and talked with her, while the males of the family rotted their brains with video games and TV.<br /><br />Saw the first snowflake today!!<br /><br />-Ed<img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><br /></div></div><br /><div class="footer"><div class="footerleft"><div class="footerright"></div><br /></div></div> ]]></description>

Many things have occurred since I last posted.  #1 I HAVE A BOYFRIEND!!!!!!!  Our relationship started to build during rehearsals for my school's fall play and we started going out on opening night of the play.  BTW, the play went smoothly and I had so much fun.  I can't wait for Sunday, since I will be going over to my boyfriend's house then.  #2 I applied to Penn State and am waiting for a response.  I really hope that I am able to get in.  #3 Been working on a poetry research project and have a fun psych project coming up!!  I get to dress up, so that will be a lot of fun.<br /><br />As for posting poetry, I will be writing some over the rest of this week and thanksgiving break, since I probably won't have any homework over the holiday.<br /><br />Can't wait for Thanksgiving!!!  I LOVE Thanksgiving!!!  Watching the parade, eating, helping with the cooking, etc....  Thanksgiving I am truly thankful for (pardon the pun).<br /><br /><br />Lady Winter will soon be visiting us soon.  Hope to see some snow soon!!!!<br /><br />Happy Holidays!!!<br /><br />-Ed<br /><br /><div class="leaf"></div> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Wow! Thanks everybody!  I can't stress enough how much it really means to me; the views and my beloved watchers!  I love you all and you are all such good friends!  Many of you have helped me in many ways, whether praise, constructive criticism, personal advice, or just being a friend. THANK YOU!!!!! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/happycry2.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":happycry:" title="Happy cry (Tears of joy)" /> <br /><br />BTW, I am starting a novel with my best friend <a href="http://melloveskyle.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/m/e/melloveskyle.gif?3" alt=":iconmelloveskyle:" title="melloveskyle"/></a>.  It's going to be a horror/action/fantasy/romance.  Kind of like if you mixed Harry Potter, Interview with a Vampire, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, and the Matrix altogether.  We might post it on here in chapters or intervals, depending on the amount of time we have.<br /><br />In my AP English class we will be doing our poetry unit soon.  I can't wait and the teacher said that we will be writing poetry.  YEA!!!!  I'm gonna try to see if I can write anything between these next two weeks.  Got to look for some inspiration, hmmm......<br /><br />Well, off to go read some Edgar Allan Poe and H.P. Lovecraft.  Go Cthulhu!<br /><br />-Ed<img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /> (my nickname<img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />)<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, I am feeling a little bit better today.  I got through my SATs smoothly and I feeling like my studying really paid off.  Got free time now, so when I am able to between school and play rehearsals, I will try to post stuff.<br /><br />Halloween is coming around the corner.  Will probably post poems about autumn and other spooky things.  I still can't figure out what I am going to go as for Halloween.  Gonna have to look online for ideas.  Can't wait to get some candy! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/m/mwahaha.gif" width="29" height="15" alt=":mwahaha:" title="Mwahahahahahahaha!" /><br /><br />After all the rain this week, it turned out to be a sunny day today!  And it is the perfect temperature for fall weather. Not too cold, and not too hot, but with a cool breeze and the sun shining just right. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, I got a part in the play.  It is the drama teacher.  Not exactly the part I had originally wanted, but I am glad that I got it now, because the character seems to be more like me.<br /><br />My SATs are tomorrow....After them, I am gonna want to sleep because I am so stressed out about college.  Needless to say, today there were words spoken that never should have been. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br />Might not be on here for a couple of weeks...have to worry about college and deviantart is going to have to take a back seat for a while.  I will check messages but will probably not submit anything.<br /><br />I am so sad...I can't even explain to you how bad I feel.  Everything I do is always going wrong and I can never prove to my parents I am capable.  I don't know.  I hate myself sometimes.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Thanks for being the best of friends and for giving me support when I needed it the most, and also the encouragement.<br /><br />Things are a little hectic around here.  I just got over having an anger episode and am wondering what I am able to do about my anger episodes, past and future.  I don't know. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />  Whatever, enough ranting.  Play auditions are this Wednesday and I'm gonna try out for the spacey, hyper girl. ^-^  Also, our first outdoor dance is this Friday, so I am looking forward to that.<br /><br />Haven't been able to think about anything to write about.  Need to find some inspiration from somewhere.  Reading Stephen King isn't gonna cut it.  I need some ideas or I am gonna go crazy.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Jeeze! Half a year has already gone by since I joined deviantart. Well, 5 months, but thats close enough.  Lately, I have been overloading my brain for the SAT and discovering the wonderful, spooky world of Stephen King.  As a horror lover, I tend to read the more obscure titles and avoid big names in horror, but sometimes you just have to cave in and try something new.  I read "Carrie" a couple of weeks ago and I loved it!  I had seen the movie, but thought that the book would be a lot better and it took me two years to finally sit down and read it.  Now I am reading Salem's Lot, Christine, and Fire Starter as well as books by other big names in horror such as John Saul, Peter Straub, Dean Koontz, Shirley Jackson, etc...  I'm also reading tons of thrillers by Mary Higgins Clark, who seems to be a fairly good author of thrillers, unlike some.....and I'm also reading Anne Rice, since I love her novels.  <br /><br />Having fun taking my psychology course, theater arts, and AP english...I always love a challenge. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

Don't know what I got but it has taken a lot out of me.  Hope it's not swine flu. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br />Anyways, things around here have been busy.  I have written some poems, but haven't had the time to type them up and post them.  Gonna have to do it this weekend or one of these days....<br /><br />Well, I'm off to go take a nap.  Even typing this is making me feel worse.<br /><br />I can't believe it is September.  Can't wait for Halloween next month!<br /><br />-Dusk <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Everything so far has been going well at school and at home, but I am so worried about my SATs and getting into college.  I really want my parents to be proud of me, but I don't know if I have the best score for the SAT and I know that getting accepted to colleges can be random.  I have really been studying and trying to get my score to be better than it was before.  I really hope that I am able to get in.  I want to make my mom and dad happy, so life is kinda stressing for me right now.  I mean, what happens if I don't get accepted?  I am so nervous and a bit scared about my future right now.  I want to have a legit job that pays well, and I am not about to be a cashier for the rest of my life.  I really don't know.  <br /><br />Already at school, I have had to take 3 quizzes and it hasn't been a full week yet.  It's so crazy!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Plus, I have the best classes and the best teachers this year.  In homeroom, my teacher does cooking sciences, so every morning we can have a treat and coffee!  I also got to have lunch, study hall, and theater arts with one of my best friends, so I am really happy.  I also found out what we are doing for the fall play!  We are going to do an 80's prom play! (don't ask me why?!?!) It seems like it will be really fun to do.  This year is so relaxed.  I have easy classes and at least three study halls.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I really am torn between going back to school and not wanting to go.  There are so many things I just don't want to have to deal with.  I believe I am going into another period of emotional anxiety and stress.  I have to study for the SAT, take the SAT, apply for Pennstate, deal with homework stress, just dealing with people in general, I am not looking forward to.  Well, the teachers are fine and I really want to see my real friends again, but it is the other teens that are going to be getting on my nerves. I also was plagued with depression last year, which I think is re-surfacing.  Tonight has not been the best of nights.  Recently I have just been having nightmares and I think they are somehow connected to my depression.  Anyways, that is why I am writing this at 5:30 in the morning.  I can't fall back asleep at all.  I have become somewhat of an insomniatic this summer; only finding sleep until midnight or later, and then sleeping in really late (like 10:00 A.M. late).  It also doesn't help that I seem to have pains in my shoulder blades all the time and was sick for two weeks and I probably still am.  <br /><br />Sorry that this is a rant.  But I really needed something to get this out of my system and help me feel better.  My stomach is flipping and I am so exhausted. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />  I hope by the time school is here, I will feel better and find sleep.<br /><br />Hope everyone is enjoying the change of the seasons!  At least I am anyways. (I LOVE Autumn!)  <br /><br />-Dusk <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Jeeze, it just seems like I finished up all my summer work and I have to go back to school again.  Oh well, I better get busting my butt studying for the SAT and applying for college.  I really hope that I get into Pennstate, because it is my dream college, seriously!  Today I had to take a break from studying though because I have a slight illness that makes my brain unable to function with math probs today.  My whole family has this weird cold/flu/stomach bug thing, that doesn't make us bed-ridden, but makes us feel like we have jet lag.  My legs feel like they are made of lead and my head is so cloudy that I am having difficulty typing this right now.  I keep making spelling errors that I usually don't make otherwise. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />  Also, I was having a period of insomnia last night, due to my stomach. -_-<br /><br /><br />Does anyone know of a good website for creative writing topics?  I just want to find a list of words that I can use to find inspiration for poems.  Almost like the 100 theme challenge lists, but for writers.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ugh...I am just so tired.  Today was just one of those days were everything seems so fast and surreal and then it suddenly slows down and you feel like you have been punched in the gut. w-w  <br /><br />Oh well.  Nothing much is going on around here.  I am still wanting to write, but I can't think of anything.  And I am just so nervous about school.  I just don't want to have to deal with annoying people at school.  When I go back to school it will be same old, same old.  Of course, relationships are out of the question, since no one is interested in having a relationship with me.  Just because I have short hair and I am overweight.  God!  I hate judgemental people.  I guess any overweight, short-haired, anime-loving, artistic, writing, goth girl is considered to be something other than straight these days. >_< The human race is just stupid sometimes.  Animals are so much better. ^-^<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ugh.  I don't want to go back to school so soon.  I was just getting into the feeling of summer and I'm gonna have to hit the textbooks again.  Oh well, this year will be way easier than last year was.  I will be posting a lot more this year then I did last year.  I gotta buy me a book of writing prompts though, cause I am at a creative standstill.  Every idea that I think of, I overthink about and don't do it because I think it sounds cliche, dumb, too much drama, etc.....  So, I got a bunch of books from the library that might help me.  Also, when I get back to school, I will ask my English teacher that I had last year for English and creative writing, for some books on creative writing prompts.  He is also a writer and a talented one at that.  I wish that I was having classes with him this year. Out of all the teachers I had last year, I miss him the most.  He was the BEST English teacher and shared a passion for writing with me.  Plus, I miss his complements and critiques he gave me on my writing to make my work better. Wahhh! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br /><br />Will try to post 1-4 more poems before school starts.  I'm thinking of doing some fall-related ones.  I had a really good idea about ravens, so I'm gonna go start writing it.<br /><br />Your very odd and very strange deviantwriter,<br /><br />Dusk <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's been raining buckets for days where I live and I am actually quite glad about it.  It's also muggy while it is raining, so the rain is warm and it's all foggy outside.  I love it!  Rain makes me feel relaxed and happy.  It is strange because rain is usually associated with sadness, but I am just the opposite.  Last night, I had wonderful dreams about next year at school, so hopefully these dreams are telling me of good luck next year at school.  Can't wait for psychology!  The human psyche is so interesting to learn about and I can't wait for the projects we will have to do.  The teacher for psychology is the same teacher I had for American History 2 last year, which makes me happy because I did really well in his class and I got a 97% on my final in that class and I got good grades on all my projects in that class. :]  Jeeze, that sentence had too many sayings of "that class" didn't it?  <br /><br /><br />If anyone to see something really cute today, go on to youtube and type "nyan nyan dance remix".  It is the cutest thing and is becoming a bigger phenomenon than caramelldansen!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I am so tired from all the craziness that went on for a couple of days.  We had spring cleaning at our house and there was so much stuff to do that I didn't have time to write a journal entry.  I am also sad because Shojo Beat is canceled.  My last chance for a subscription to an anime/manga magazine and it gets discontinued.  Oh wells.  School is starting in 4 weeks. 0-0 I can't believe it.  Where did summer go?  At least my classes this year will be a bit more fun and not as hard as last years.  The classes I am taking next year are:<br /><br />Psychology<br />Music History<br />Art II<br />AP English 12<br />French 2<br />Statistics<br />Drivers Ed<br /><br />I don't remember anymore of the classes there are at least 2 more classes I am missing.  I am going to also be in the drama club. ^-^  Can't wait to audition.  I have been listening to the Oklahoma and Grease soundtracks all summer, trying to memorize the songs.  Most of the Grease songs I know, but Oklahoma I am not to certain.  Rogers and Hammerstein have never really been my fave producers for musicals.  South Pacific was good but I don't really like their other ones.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, I had a good time at Otakon.  I bought a load of manga and was able to soak in the awesomeness of being around fellow otakus.  The only gripe I had about the whole experience was that everyone I asked to take their picture were either ignoring me or didn't hear me over all the general noise, so pics are not plenty.  I don't think I have any of the convention center, just me and my brother cosplaying.  I will post them tonight, if not, tomorrow.<br /><br />This experience left me feeling that I don't really like the bigger cons.  It was hard finding where everything was and everything looked the same.  It was like being in a labyrinth.  I think Setsucon-size cons are better, now that I went to this one.  <br /><br />Oh well, I had fun, and that was the whole point of it.  Off to post pics!<br /><br /><br />-Dusk <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

I don't like having lots of people near me during my birthday.  I would rather spend it alone in the dark, thank you very much.  Anyways, I wish everyone a very happy day, since I know most of you were probably having kittens about the membership issue for the past couple days.  <br /><br />Hope they have good cake at the place I am going to tonight.

Thank you!  <br /><br />  Seriously, you don't know how my day has been today.  I can make a list of how crappy it was.<br /><br /><br />1. Get ripped off at a store and I can't get a refund<br />2. Crappy lunch that tasted like chalk and bile<br />3. Find out my crush has a girlfriend W-W<br />4. Don't get invited to a party, even though I am friends with that person!?!?<br />5. Migraine from trip to eye doctor because of the bright lights <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br />6. People saying "Oh My God" and glaring at me, because of the way I dress.<br />7. Waiting an hour at a store to get something done that takes less than 5 minutes to do.>_<<br />8. Drinking soda that tastes like a kid barfed up candy <br />9. Meeting my nemesis at the grocery store ' >0< '<br />...and last but not least, 10. waking up and getting stressed out about not having deviantart anymore, because of that whole "membership" thing. Yeah, that little sweetheart.<br /><br /><br />Oh well! Might post a poem tomorrow and next week will be posting pics of Otakon.<br /><br />Dusk <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/r/roseblack.gif" width="15" height="18" alt=":blackrose:" title="Black Rose" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ If you haven't noticed already, I have posted a poem.  It is vampiric, so if you don't like reading about vampires, avoid this poem.  And another thing, it is based on the original idea of vampires, not the fruity, sparkling, deer eating, emo twilight vampires.  Those vampires are just absurd.  I should know. ^"^  I think with this poem I made it a little more in the mind of the main character, rather than a story.  I hope you enjoy it and comment and critique as much as you like about it.  I love to hear other peoples opinions.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Due to my crazy schedule this summer and my full senior year of school, I will not be able to write fanfics by request.  The reasons are mostly that I hate writing stories that are based on things.  They seem to be so obvious and the characters are already made, so it takes out the fun of creating and shaping your own characters. It makes them seem to easy to write and I don't put as much work into them because of those things.  Also, I like to work at my own pace and I have gotten so many requests outside of deviantart that I am not able to keep up and get my priorities straight. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br />I am sorry about this, but I will still continue to post pics, short stories, poems, and other pieces of art, sooner or later.<br /><br />On a happier note, 5 more days until I am going to Otakon!  Can't wait and I am looking forward to posting pics of cosplaying.  And I also went to Cincinnati.  This is the reason I haven't posted a journal or stuff like that for over a week.  I have just been adding faves and returning thank yous.  Computer time was limited because I was shopping, having fun, and spending time with my grandparents, aunt, and cousins down there, since I never get to see them. I also went to a specialty store that sold international food and got tons of Japanese candies and goodies. ^-^  I also got $60 for my birthday, so my vacation was pretty sweet.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, my parents and I discussed Otakon again and they said they wanted to go!  A couple of days ago, we were all getting frustrated over hotel rooms and how much they cost.  We gave up and forgot about it.  But my dad still wanted to go, so we are going to either stay outside of the city or splurge and stay at the Hyatt Regency that is connected to the Con by a sky bridge.  I'm so happy!  I will definately get pics of the con.  Thing is, I have to ask peoples permission to take pics.  So a lot of the pics are going to be of people cosplaying.  Plus, you can't take pics of anything in the artist's alley or the panel rooms without permission from the security guards or the artists themselves.  I might be able to get a couple pics of Kanon Wakeshima, since she is going to be performing on Saturday, which is when I will be there.  I love her music! ^-^ Squee!!!!  I can't wait!!  Pocky, Ichigo Ramune, Cheap Manga, a Death Note (I want one, and they sell them! ^_^), J-pop, etc!!!!!!  Also, I can't wait to go into the game room and play DDR or Guitar Hero!  I can play medium on DDR and I can play expert on Guitar Hero.  I will try to get pics of me in the game room, me posing with other cosplayers, me hanging at the hotel being L, and some pics of my bro, who has decided he is going as Shikamaru from Naruto.  Go figure!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I know I am a history geek but I just love certain time periods.  I felt like I needed to make a list of time periods I love and why I love them.<br /><br />^-^  Okay, here we go!<br /><br /><br />Victorian Era - love the clothes!  Pinifores, Smocks, Top Hats, Macs (as in the boots), etc.<br /><br />Edwardian Era - again, love the clothes and what they did. Overcoats, Bodices, Corsets, Lace, Petticoats, Parasols, Fans, Gowns, Teatime, Balls and Dances, etc... too many things to list! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> <br /><br />P.S. Victorian and Edwardian era go hand in hand because of how close they were to each other.  Along Gregorian and the British Regency, all are very similar in fashion, music, architecture (sp?), and more.<br /><br />Feudal Era Japan - when Geishas were plenty, beautifully embroidered Kimonos that cost $1000s of dollars, Ronin (wandering Samurai), etc.<br /><br />The Renaissance - Michaelangelo, Botticelli, Da Vinci, The Black Death (positively horrid but interesting to read about), Gothic Architecture, Shakespeare, Raphael, etc.<br /><br />Elizabethian Era/Tudor Era - Henry the 8th, Elizabethian Theatre, Religious conflict between the Catholics and the Protestants, beautifully intricate gowns (I dressed up as Queen Elizabeth once), Banquets, War of the Roses, etc.<br /><br /><br />Well, there we go.  Now off to look at some pretty gowns and jewelry. ^-^<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I think I am going to have to scratch Otakon from my summer schedule.  A couple of days ago I further looked into it and found out it was the 2nd largest con in the USA. WOAH! o_O  Also, all the hotels close by were totally booked, except for a really expensive hotel that doesn't want to have the right beds.  Also on top of that, we have gas prices, food prices, tickets (which are $65 dollars a pop), and other contributing factors that make it impossible to go.<br /><br />Oh well,  I guess that I will have to wait until next year for Connecticon.  I'll still be able to buy manga cheaply, because there is this website that sells used books real cheap.  And the money that you spend goes to countries like Africa and allows them to buy school supplies, medicine, clothes, etc.  Guess what, shipping is free!  The website is <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.betterworldbooks.com">[link]</a>.  Go there and check out the hot deals.  And another thing, books that are used are in great condition, so don't hesitate to buy used copies.<br /><br />I will try to get a pic anyways, even if I have to cosplay at home.  And who knows, maybe an opportunity will pop up and I will be able to go.  Hopefully. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Guess what, folks?  I'm going down to Baltimore for Otakon 2009!!!!!!!!  I wasn't able to go to Connecticon because it was the same week that my parents are going on a anniversary trip and I haven't gotten my drivers license yet.  So I searched around and found one that was closer to my birthday and was a little bit closer of a drive.  <br /><br />My brother and I are going to be cosplaying.  I think he is going as Renji or Ichigo from Bleach, but he is still not sure about it.  He has the costume, so he better go as a soul reaper!  Of course, I have probably said this 100 times, I am going as L.  I have everything I need from the last con that I cosplayed at, so I don't need to spend any cash on my costume.  Sadly, we will not be able to participate at the masquerade.  With AP english, I have no time to come up with a skit and not enough people to do it with.<br /><br />This time I will get a pic of me cosplaying as L and possibly my brother.<br /><br />By the way, if you take pics of an anime con, can you post them on deviantart as your photography, or do you have to get permission to show them online or in a public space?  I want to be able to post the fun time I had and share it with all of you. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I hate that people exagerrate everything!  As if we need more blatant cliches blaring in our face. <br /><br />Like holloween makeup for instance.  They always make it over the top and horribly thick and colorful, when all you need is the basics to look scary.  For instance, take vampire fangs.  They always make them really big so that EVERYONE can notice them.  Making them a reasonable size wouldn't hurt.  Plus, those are difficult to wear anyways since they are so big and clunky.  Mine are 1/2 the size smaller than the ones you buy at a halloween speciality store, and people at school are always commenting on them.  I am so glad they I have natural fangs, because if I had to wear those, I think I would scream.  Thank you genes and DNA!<br /><br />I want to post a pic of myself on here at some point.  Need to get one of me cosplaying or something, so that my identity is kind-of hidden.  I just think you could,pardon the pun, "picture" me better in your mind if you had an idea of what I looked like.<br /><br />My nickname is literally "vampire" at school, because of my fangs, my interests, my fashion, the music I listen to, etc...  I'll be in one of my classes and people will call me vampire behind my back. They never know I am listening, which is stupid.  I don't care that they call me that though, because it doesn't offend me.  I have romanian blood, so them calling me that is fun and kind of true.  I even sneak up on my friends and scare them. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I just put up a new poem.  It was inspired by a piece at the Metropolitan.  Will be putting up more pieces infrequently, when I have the time.  Will probably during the long hours of the night, considering my daytime is filled with other activities.  Mostly what will be posted will be poems and flash fiction, with the occasional short story or fanfic.  Mostly poetry though, since I am able to write that with more ease and in a shorter amount of time than a story. Poetry will be mostly fantasy and imagery based.<br /><br />I will also be posting little snippets of the novel I am working on over the summer and the following year.  It was originally going to be a short story or a novella, but the idea grew and it is going to have to be a novel, I think.  It is in the style of a dark fantasy; a la Neil Gaiman, Clive Barker, etc...<br /><br />With every piece of writing, I feel as if my ability to write is growing and flourishing.  It seems to improve with each story and poem.  It also makes me glad to see that others like my work.  Your watches and faves are greatly appreciated and it helps me to blossom into a better writer.  I thank you tremendously! <3 <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm out of school!  And I got good grades on all of my finals.<br /><br />I got accepted into AP (Advanced Placement) English for next year, so I am feeling really good.  Sure, I have to write three essays over the summer, but I am good at writing essays, so it should be a piece of cake.<br /><br />I am planning to go to an anime con sometime in late july, early august.  I have to look into ones that are close by.  I am thinking Connecticon, which was the first and best con I have been to yet.  It is the right time of the year and I found the best deal on manga there last time I went.  I got 10 manga for the price of 5 manga.  If I get around $100 or more dollars for my birthday, I will be able to get at least 20 mangas. Squee!!!!  And I am going to cosplay this time.  If I keep my hair relatively short, I can go as L again.  But I was thinking of dyeing my hair red, so I don't know who I would go as that would be a relatively easy costume to put together.  I love you L-kuuunnn!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I have three half days of school left.  I am so happy!!!!  I can't wait for summer.  I just need to take a break from worrying about deadlines, due dates, if my work is good enough...etc.  I need to be able to have free time to think and to have fun.  Summer cookouts, reading under the shade, drawing and writing my heart out, everything.  I just want to do it.  I even want to try to plan another anime convention trip.  If I can't, well, I 'll just have to spend all my birthday money on another supplier of goodies.<br /><br />I'm going to try drawing an idea I have had in my mind for about 3-4 years.  It's a girl reaching out to a boy in a cage that has bat wings coming out of his back.  This idea was inspired by a dream that I had and it has been with me ever since.  I found the idea new and romantic and I want to be able to draw it.  I am not a experienced artist, so this piece will take me a very long time until I am done with it.  I also want to draw a couple of pieces inspired by songs from the band "Evanescence."  <br /><br />Goths might say that Evanescence is mainstream crap, but I think otherwise.  They are just as good as other goth bands that I listen to. I am a goth myself, wearing my black trench coat with pinstriping on the inside, my mostly black shirts, my heavy black eyeliner, etc....  And don't call me a poser, cause I am not.  I am a goth both physically and mentally. <br /><br />I am one of those people that always has dreams that I am dead. I wake up in a coffin and I am either being buried or I can hear my own funeral going on.  Sometimes I can walk out of the coffin and everything seems normal, except I am really cold, and I usually wake up freezing my butt off.  It's really strange, but I sort of like it, since I am morbidly minded.  My dreams always seem to be dark, but I am never scared of them.  I really enjoy them. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I only have 3 more finals to finish before I am done.  I took my math and history final the other day.  Guess which one I failed? Yep, math.  But apparantly, to get into college you only need knowledge of Algebra 1 and Geometry.  But anyways, next year I will be in statistics, so I will be able to gain a math credit from that class and I will be able to pass it fairly easily. I am pretty sure I aced the history final.  Some questions were hard, but I had a extra credit pillow to make it so I don't fail it.  Thank god for that.  My bus was rear-ended and I missed the first half of my history final, but I was able to finish it before I moved the next period had started.<br /><br />English final today.  I am a bit nervous, but I studied fairly well for it and I am a good student in that class, so I don't think I will fail.  Computer Applications is an easy class to pass.  I know I am going to ace the final for that.<br /><br />The only one I am worried about is French.  I had very good grades in that class until I came into a slump and my grade dropped.  I got it back up again, but I hope I don't trip up on the final exam.  I need to pass this class.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Only 7 days till school is out!!!!  And I know I am going to ace every final.  Also, I just need a break from school.  This was my first year in public school (I was homeschooled before), so everything was new.  Next year I will be better at it though.<br /><br />Guess what?  I was selected for the National Honor Society!!!!  I am really happy right now. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />I will not have anything big posted for a while.  After finals, I have to write two essays for summer reading for my Academic English 12 class.  So, I am going to be very busy.<br /><br /><br />I will try to post some poems, if I can think of anything to write.  But don't worry, I'll think of something.  <br /><br />By the way, does anyone think I should get a new avatar?  This one is kind of being used a lot.  I want to find one with a gothic/anime theme, but it is hard to find obscure ones.  Any suggestions?<br /><br />Also, does anyone know where to find short fantasy stories online, that you can read online?  I love fantasy short stories, but buying the books is too costly for me.  And my library doesn't have any that I haven't already read.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Everything around here is just really crazy right now.  I have been working a lot on studying for my finals, and family life is busy too.  When school is over, I will definitely have more time to post stories.<br /><br />I am going to put up a poem I just recently wrote for creative writing.  This one was inspired by a piece of art I saw at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where I went for a field trip.<br /><br />As for the Hellsing fanfic, I don't know when that is going to be finished, so don't get your hopes up.  It's weird.  I can find the time to write on other stories, but this one is taking forever.  I guess it is because it isn't something my imagination thought up and I have to find more info from the show.  Right now it is really crappy and I don't know how to make it the way I wanted it to.  I don't know if I will be able to do it, because I'm not getting the creative spark I usually do when I am writing other stories.  I hope that who I am writing it for will understand.  I just can't write it.  I have complete writer's block on that one story. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I can't wait for summer break!!!!   There is so much free time during the summer, I will be able to put up tons of stories.  Plus, I am planning to try to go to a anime convention sometime during the summer.  Last year, I went to Connecticon, and it was the best anime convention I went to.  Then this year I went to Setsucon in February.  While it wasn't as good as Connecticon in terms of stuff to do, it was still enjoyable to walk around.  Plus, it was my first time cosplaying.  I went as L from Death Note (what did you expect?) and I  got asked by fans wanting asking for a picture. I probably only got asked by 2-3 people, but other people just took my picture anyways.  What do I care?  Let them take their pictures. There were better cosplayers of L at the convention, but I guess they thought otherwise.  There was this one really nice guy that asked for his picture with me, so I did the L pose (looking up at camera, which gives you puppy eyes, and putting the edge of your thumb under your top lip, like L does when he is thinking).  He seemed surprised when I did that, so he decided to do it too.  He was just a really nice, sweet guy.<br /><br /><br />Anyways, after that long discussion, I went to Knobels (sp?) over the weekend and had a really great time.  After the rides, we went out to eat and I felt like I was still on one, but besides that, I had a really great time.  This, my friends, is the reason I wasn't on here, because we went camping and I didn't want to bring my laptop, for fear it would somehow be stolen. Anyways, I had a great time.<br /><br />Another thing that happened, is I found out that I am severly (sp) allergic to caffeine.  I was having a really crappy night and then my breath shortened, I had chills, my body hurt everywhere, I felt like I was going to puke, and my stomach felt like there was something in it.  Yeah, it was not a good night, to say the least.  In the morning, I looked up the side affects of caffeine and everything I had that night was listed as a severely (sp?) allergic  reaction.  The day before I had a cup of coffee, two glasses of coke, and a piece of chocolate.  Now I don't want to eat anything with caffeine in it. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I just got finished with the Naru/Saku fanfic.  Hope everyone enjoys it!<br /><br />I am so happy about the end of school.  And now that the SATs are over, I can write more.<br /><br />Right now, I am starting a Hellsing fanfic for one of my friends, and I am also going to put a story that I am doing for creative writing.  It's about two vampire brothers that work for an organization called SERAPHIM.  Their names are Gabriel and Michael.  Get it?  Oh well, if you don't, than that is fine.  I want to write it in the style of Neil Gaiman's writing, since he is my favorite author.  It would be so cool to meet him in person.  I have read all his books that I can get my hands on and wish for him to continue writing.  I love you Neil Gaiman!!!!!<br /><br />Hellsing fanfic should be on deviant-art by middle or end of may, depending, and the other story I still don't know what time it will be up.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ The field trip that I went to on monday was to go to the Wachovia Arena college fair and then a tour of King's college!  I liked King's College a lot, mostly because there school offers the best classes for my major.  Another cool thing is that rather than having to submit your SAT score, you can just submit your highest GPA from your junior or senior year of high school.  <br /><br />Pennstate Worthington is my first choice for college, but if they don't accept me, I will probably go to Kings.  It is a catholic school and I am not catholic, but they said you could be any religion, so now I am happy.  I am a little bit nervous about the SAT because I have always had a hard time understanding math, but besides that I am very good at reading and writing for the SAT.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm sorry I haven't been able to post part 2 of the DN fanfic.  This week we have prom and I have been so busy I haven't had any spare time to write.  I also have to study for the SAT, so my nights are filled up as well.  I'm really nervous about it, because I want to do a good job on the test.<br /><br />I will also be putting up a NaruSaku fanfic for my friend sakura-raven-fan soon.  It will probably be on here sometime next month.<br /><br />Again, if anybody wants me to write a specific fanfic, I will, free of charge.  I love to write and I also love to write for other people.  It makes me feel good when someone can appreciate something I have written.  <br /><br />Prom Tomorrow!!!!!!  I am so excited and nervous at the same time.  This is my first formal school dance.  The only other dance I went to was informal.<br /><br />You know when you're at a magic show or something like that and when the guy asks for volunteers, you raise your hand every time and you raise it sincerely and the guy still doesn't call you?  It makes me sad.  I have not been a volunteer in anything.  Am I scary? Probably.  Am I a vampire? Who knows?  They never call me.  Not blaming anybody, I just wanted to address that because I have always wanted to be called up by a magician.<br /><br />Ookkay...Finally I got that weird issue out of my system.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, I went to go see the spring play.  Wasn't bad, it was really fun to watch and I got to see one of my senior friends in the play.  I'll be so sad when all my senior friends leave.  They are so fun and witty, I just love having conversations with them; whether it be about what we are doing for creative writing or music, movies, books, etc...  I will miss them so much.<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /><br /><br />4 days until prom!!!!  I can't wait.  My dress is all ready and I have everything I need.  I even know what I am going to do with my hair.  It is short; it kind of looks like Judy Nail's haircut from Guitar Hero 3.  I am going to do finger waves that make my hair looks like something from the era of the 1920s.  I really love old-fashioned things, so this makes me really happy. My dress even looks like an old fashioned 1920s-30s ballgown.   <br /><br />By the way, if anyone wants me to write specific fanfics, just let me know.  Time that it takes to complete them may vary, because I still am in school and have a life.  So if it takes me a couple of weeks, don't be surprised.  Again I will not do Yaoi/Yuri or any kind of hentai writing.  Go to someone else if you wish to read about those kind of things.  What I will do is romance between boys and girls, horror, fantasy, parodies, anything as long as it is at least G to PG-13 content.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Today was decade day and the junior class got the 1980s.  I was so excited.  Oh well.<br /><br /><br />I am typing this from my bed where I am feeling deathly ill.  I probably have the flu or something.  My brothers had the same thing and it was a 24 hour type of illness, so hopefully I will feel better tomorrow.<br /><br /><br />Well, back to sleep.  Now I know how a zombie must feel.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I have so much time on my hands and I don't have anything to do.  The most I have been doing is surfing the internet.  I just finished up typing up a list of anime ops/eds that I want to download onto my MP3 player.  I tend to forget what songs I want to get, so it really saves me a lot of time.  <br /><br />Easter is tomorrow!!!!  I can't wait to go into a chocolate/candy indused coma!!! <br /><br /><br />I really need inspiration for some fanfics or stories.  I was planning on submitting one of my creative writing assignments, but I wasn't assigned one. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />  If anyone has any suggestions, please tell me.  I am desperately in need of an idea.<br /><br />Spring play is going to be great!!!  All my friends are in it. I wanted to be in the play but I had to much stuff going on.  We are doing Cinderella, just like in Fruits Basket, when Kyo, Yuki, and Tohru are in their school play. What a coincidence!  And it is the same season too!!!  That is so righteous!!<br /><br />By the way, I love Fruits Basket.  The manga is absolutely hilarious and also full of drama.  I just finished reading Vol 22 and cried through the whole thing.  Just for those who are wondering about the whole ending of the series, don't worry, it ends happy. Fruits Basket made me cry more than when I read the final volume of Absolute Boyfriend.  Another manga that made me cry was one of the final volumes of Tsubasa: Resevoir Chronicles.  There is a character named Fai Flowright that becomes blind and almost dies.  The volume ended at a cliffhanger and tears were welling up in my eyes, because he is my fav character!!!  One last thing that made me cry is when L dies in Death Note.  He is my absolute favorite anime/manga character.  I had a serious urge to grab Light by the arm and fling him across the room.  How could he do that to my beloved L?<br /><br />Death Note just gave me a great idea for a fanfic.  Well, I'm off to write it. Ta-ta!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

With the four day weekend I am getting off, I will be able to post more stuff.  I wish there was a bit more circulation on my page.  Maybe that will change when I put up some more stories.<br /><br />I am also self-teaching myself to draw anime.  I have wanted to draw it for years, and have always tried and failed.  This time I am going to practice my butt off, even if I have to do it every day after school and during summer.<br /><br /><br />By the way, has anyone ever had blue raspberry milk?  My friends have all tried it and they say it tastes like crap.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, since I haven't been able to get any ideas into my head for fanfics, I am going to do a list of my favorite anime characters.  You ready? Go!<br /><br />Fai (Tsubasa)<br />Abel Nightroad (Trinity Blood)<br />Seras Victoria (Hellsing)<br />Kakashi Hatake (Naruto,duh)<br />Kyo Sohma (Fruits Basket)<br />Yuki Sohma (Fruits Basket)<br />Dark Mousy (DNAngel)<br />L (Death Note)<br />Rem (Death Note)<br />Misa (Death Note)<br />Sesshomaru (Inuyasha)<br />Gunter (Kyo Kara Maoh)<br />Sephiroth (Final Fantasy; not nessasarily anime but close enough)<br />Howl (Howl's Moving Castle)<br />Konata (Lucky Star)<br />Sarara (Bottle Fairy)<br />Edward Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist)<br />Bakura (Yu-Gi-Oh)<br />Chrono (Chrono Crusade)<br /><br />That's about it for now.  I can't think of any more at the moment.  Too sleepy from eating.<br /><br />I can't wait for prom.  Going to be so much fun.  The valentine's dance at school was awesome, so I am ecstatic for prom.  Our theme is similar to Cirque de Soleil.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Salutations,<br /><br />I have come to join this fantastic website of words and picures.  LOL.  Anyways, don't know if I will have anything big up fpr a couple of days.  I have a a field trip, prom, and my spring play to worry about.  Also, my math grade, but that is a different story I will never tell anyone.<br /><br />I mostly do fanfic, poems, and short stories that I created myself.  I will possibly put stuff that I have done for my creative writing class on here.  I just wrote about 7 haikus the other day, so be prepared for poem awesomeness flooding in.  <br /><br />I really don't draw anything.  I love anime, but can't seem to draw it at all.  I was not created to wield the tools of art.  Rather I was made to put my ideas on paper.  <br /><br />I will not be doing any yaoi/slash fanfiction.  Sorry.<br /><br /> ]]></description>
