spring break started yesterday for me. yay!! no classes = good.

i just finished watching the incredibles with mogmagus. it was actually better than i thought it was gonna be. i liked violet; she was cool. i also liked mirage (she was soooo hot), and i was disappointed that they revealed so little about her character. but yeah, i was surprised; i figured the...

i think the sex scenes were way too graphic, though.

my short story: deep down

i might write a whole big thing...

Very cool
It seems to me that she was just seeing things in a differnt view. Still all the same things just saw them in a less ...ummmm...."happy" way. Like the thing with the high heals....I dont see any diff between heels and nails....both make you walk funny and likely hurt like hell.
The world is a toilet....and thats how she saw it.

The inside of your head is a very scary place.... thanks for sharing it with the world. What an amazing... and disturbing story.

it's been over a week since my last cigarette. i don't smell like smoke anymore; that makes me very happy.

people thought that taking wellbutrin meant i was insane. hah! no, it shows i know how to use my resources to the fullest, because taking wellbutrin means i don't get any physical cravings for cigarettes. sometimes i miss it, there's a slight psychological dependence, but...

Congrats on not smoking! I hear the first two weeks are the hardest.

You are a digital queen right: do you do any code as art stuff?
rodan:
Yay! No smoking good!

And isn't all code art? (well, no, actually not, I can provide examples wink )

it seems that i have passive observation skills: i'll notice something, but i may not realize what i've noticed until later.

Thanks for the reply and not being offended smile

I`m impressed that it only took 6 hours to write. I hear you about your points, fair enough.

I did mean it about sending it to a writing competition. That is the sort of story that wins because its hard hitting and the subject is an important one.

I write myself, though different stuff, and I`m working on a novel that is going about 2 miles an hour, but it is going. Its all fantasy based stuff (swords and sorcery).

So where can I read other stories of yours?

keep well

biggrin
silveronthetree:
I think we all have passive observation skill, and if you are lucky you have active brain functions on passive observation.

What I mean is this:

You need to buy cat food. You are at the shop but for some reason you don`t buy any. When you get home there is plenty of cat food.

So your brain half noticed someone had bought some and made you forget to get some at the shop, all without your knowledge. This is a bit of a weak example but it seems to happen to me all the time. biggrin

my short story: hollow

i finally got off my ass and put "hollow" up on my website.

**SPOILERS - READ THE STORY BEFORE READING THIS**

i like it. i think it conveys what i want it to convey. it's not perfect, 'cause no story is ever perfect, but you try writing a time spiral. it'd probably be a lot easier to do it in a...

God, I love it when someone lists Alphonse Mucha as one of their favorite artists.

haven't seen many on here. I think theres an SG on here with Mucha tat.

So a friend of mine who knew i enjoyed Buffy and Angel suggested i read the Anita Blake series. i picked up Guilty Pleasures which i'm assuming is the first one and am having a hard time getting into it.

Not sure if its becuase its not Buffy (which is fine) or that i read an Anne Rice book before i started reading this one. perhaps the different writing styles is whats throwong me off.

But i really think its more of dialog thing. I don't find the way Anita talks to be believable. Its almost obnoxious. maybe it gets better over the next few books as Hamilton writes the characters more.

I dunno.

anyway....Hi.

so, this past weekend, jon finally finished playing parasite eve. woohoo! now all he's gotta do is play the ex game and he'll have finished it (which, if any of you have played the ex game, you know that beating parasite eve the first way through means you're not even halfway through being done with the game in its entirety). ah, the chrysler building... memories......

glad to hear at least some of your classes are good. i think art makes everything better. i'm taking an art class too!! yay!! it makes the semester bearable. oh and mrs. hall was just a crazy old bat. the other art teacher was better.

btw we need to get together, i miss you love.
decedent:
i liked parasite eve a lot. the second one..not so much. i wish there'd be a sequel, but it looks like square is content with leaving a lot of their series of the past alone. we're lucky enough to get another musashi.

I've kidnapped jenn and NO ONE can stop me.
mwahahahahaha. (evil laughter echoing in dark cavern-esque voice)

well ok so she came here of her own volition...

That song is really sad but i suppose poignant? hmmm it just feels like a song that has 'meaning' or a strength to it that I can't quite pin down.
Tomorrow, shopping? are you crazy? it's fucking snowing outside!!!

sigh.

i talked about resident evil 4 a couple entries ago... so i feel the need to link to this penny arcade comic. though, it's not actually about resident evil 4. but watching chris and anthony play resident evil 4 reminded me of this comic. why? because you shoot birds and they drop jewels and stuff, and when you kill villagers armed with pitchforks they...

Punisher was alright I guess (dont know if youve ever read the comics.....but The guy in the movie was alot more....um.....subtle than the comic Punisher)
Thats an interesing quote....though kinda sad. It seems romance is dying a lil more each day....and I am very much so a romantic frown
fridgemagnet:
i thought i'd share that exerpt from the book i'm reading right now. i read that part the other night, and it really hit home with me. it resembles an internal debate i have with myself on a regular basis. i'm a romantic at heart, and it's difficult to escape that, though i seem to definitely be trying to as of late. is it working? pffft, probably not.

That really hit home with me, it's nice to know I'm not the only person dealign with that struggle. Thanks. smile
