- - - SO LONG AND THANKS FOR ALL THE FISH - - - [6.9.10] i'm on a roll...

First of all…

Wow, guys! Thank you so, so much for the awesome response on my last post. It was amazing – and almost overwhelming to get as many views as I did; over 250!

To be honest, I wasn’t exactly sure if I’d be flamed, hated, or outright banned for posting what I did… thank you, you wonderful admins, for not making me leave the site. I salute you. (:


I really don’t have a topic for this entry. XD I decided to get rid of the other two sections; they were cluttering up the page a little too much for my taste – so why have them?

Things in my personal life have been quiet and, as usually, pretty uneventful. Ave persuaded me to read Death Note about a month ago, and I’ve been hooked ever since. But, the thing is… since it’s all released; once you finish it, it’s over. A lot of things that I’ve cherished and been lucky enough to follow as they’re released are like that; the Warriors series is coming to an end, three years ago the last Harry Potter book was released and the movies will soon, too, be over and done with.

It’s almost like life. “Okay, yep, done with that year – on to the next” is the attitude that I’ve seen some people take.

I almost wish it were still 2006 or 2007, and the last Potter book was still being eagerly anticipated… heck, I wish I had been around – and been a fan – for long enough to go to more than just the two release parties that I did. It was a truly magical (har, har) experience.

There are several other things that, sadly, will also come to an end. Childhood is something that I feel like I should cling to – but, in this society, it isn’t ‘right’ for a fourteen, fifteen, or sixteen year-old to act as if they’re nine. Not ‘right’, not ‘cool’, not this, not that – honestly. Can’t we act how we want?

In other trains of thought: I’ve completely given up on newscasters. Every single one of them is a biased jerk!

-cough- But I won’t go any further on that ‘cause I’m already annoyed with them…


Lately I’ve been thinking about whom it is that I particularly admire – along with what I want to do ‘when I grow up’.

For the first part… well, I’m not sure. My parents are at the top of the list, but aside from that?

And for the second… who says I need to do it when I grow up? And why do I only have to do one thing?
When I’m old enough, I want to work at a Renaissance festival.
I’d absolutely love to do something more with music.
I’m going to become a concept artist. No, I don’t want to be a concept artist – I am GOING to become one. (:

Determination.
I has it.

…Human-drawing skillz.
I needs them.
>_>

And, well, now I’ve gone and lost the rest of my inspiration for writing this. So. I’ll follow the trend here and ask a couple of QUESTIONS. |D Don’cha love ‘em?

Who do YOU admire?
We’re six months in – have you had a good year so far?
What do you want to do as a vocation/avocation?
What do you see yourself doing in 10 to 15 years?
(Ego-fluffing time… XD) Did you read/like my last blog post?


‘Night, folks. (:

Determination.
You has it.

Who do YOU admire? Many people.
We’re six months in – have you had a good year so far? It's too early to decide.
What do you want to do as a vocation/avocation? -shrug- I really don't know.
What do you see yourself doing in 10 to 15 years? I see myself with Dimitri... if that counts.
(Ego-fluffing time… XD) Did you read/like my last blog post? Yes to both!

Who do YOU admire? Lots of people, it depends on the situation. I'm more of a person who doles out respect.
We’re six months in – have you had a good year so far?I think so. This is my craziest time of year, so I'll let you know after that's over...
What do you want to do as a vocation/avocation? I want to be on Broadway so bad. But my Mom says it's a waste of my time, and it's not worth it.
What do you see yourself doing in 10 to 15 years? On Broadway... Cool thing about that major in college is that you can minor in English.
(Ego-fluffing time… XD) Did you read/like my last blog post? Yes I absolutely did. I was part of the "argument" in the comments section.

We’re six months in – have you had a good year so far? I think so...
What do you want to do as a vocation/avocation? Like, job? I wanna be a programmer.
What do you see yourself doing in 10 to 15 years? Being a programmer. Or, like, ruling the world.
You know what? I don't actually know. >.> 'Cause my interests change so quickly... less than a year ago I didn't know how to even code basic HTML, so... I really have no idea.
(Ego-fluffing time… XD) Did you read/like my last blog post? Your last blog post was amazing. While I might have wanted to scream at some of the people (xP) I kept civilized and I think that some people considered their points of view again. Which is great.

(Ego-fluffing time… XD) Did you read/like my last blog post?
Yesh and yesh.

Who do YOU admire?
There's lots of people . . . but you top my list for sure, Draggy. ^^ I wish I was unschooled, and I know I've said it before, but still. XD Maybe then I'd have the time to be as leet a person as you are in everything.
We're six months in - have you had a good year so far?
Wow, already?! o_O Well, actually, yes. I've had a very good year.

Getting married? XD
(Ego-fluffing time… XD) Did you read/like my last blog post?
You know it. ^^ I'm not honestly sure whether I liked or disliked it . . . I was impressed and my thoughts were provoked by it, but never actually formed an opinion. XD

Noah

2. I'm glad it's better!
3. Ooh, awesome! The arts are fantastic.
4. Oooooh... is there any specific game you'd like to design - like working with Blizzard Entertainment, for example? Or would you rather do your own games and stuff?

2. Yeah, already! It's weird, isn't it?! And yay! So have I. o:
3. Oooh... Well, you could always be a veterinarian for your vocation, and then a writer as a hobby/side job. o: Who says you need to have just ONE profession?
4. Ooh la la. ;D
5. Wheee, it makes my day when I impress a site owner. XD Seriously, though. I'm glad you read it and didn't feel the need to take it down because of the subject matter or anything.

1. You're welcome. ^^
2. That's good! :3 And what in particular made your year so great?
3. Aha! See, that's exactly what I do want to try to do! :3 (I just feel a little bad for it, cus it seems like I'm betraying the writing part of me. XD)
4.
5. Yeah, it wasn't questionable or anything. ^^ I'm actually glad you did decide to post it, especially since it's helped me to try harder to figure out my own beliefs on the matter. (No, I haven't figured them out fully yet, but I'm getting there. XD)
