Hi. Welcome to my profile. I apologize for the length. I'm easily amused:

Name: An (Annie's a nickname...kinda)

My parents are Vietnamese and I was born in Canada. I'm fluent in English, mostly French, and Vietnamese...well I wish. haha.

TV Shows: Gilmore Girls, the O.C, One Tree Hill, House, Sue Thomas: F.B.Eye, CSI: NY, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Robin Hood BBC

Animés: Inuyasha, Gundam SEED, Naruto, Yu-Gi-Oh!

Books: Like, a bajillion. If anyone needs a recommendation, lemme know.

Not much to say, just that I write for fun. Obviously. Sometimes I don't finish what I start. Hopefully that won't happen to any of my stories...but no promises. The only pet peeves I really have in terms of fanfiction are grammar and plagarism.

Honestly people, I should not be getting reviews saying that my grammar is good. (Although reviews are always appreciated) I am a high school student who has spoken English her entire life. My grammar is supposed to be good. And the sad thing is: I know why and agree with most authors who say this. The level of correct grammar/punctuation/spelling on this site is atrocious. Microsoft Word checks documents for all of these things. USE IT. Just because you put an ' in you're doesn't make it right.

And as for plagiarism...NO. JUST NO. It's a disgusting thing invented for people who are too insecure about their own writing, so they steal the hard work of others. Don't plagiarize. And if I see one more almost word-for-word copy of the first chapter in Catch Me, I am going to shoot someone. And flame them hardcore. So please don't. It's flattering, but don't.

I, Annie , do solemnly swear to review all the Fics I read, regardless of the number of reviews, its age, or anything else.

Update: August 25, 2008 - Well, new obsession is the BBC series Robin Hood (Have you SEEN Jonas Armstrong? Drool.) And I'm exploring that at the moment, quelling my fury at the series 2 finale. Argh. As for updates, I'm trying. But it's aggravating.

Catch Me: COMPLETE!! So close to 300 reviews...

Forgetting to Remember: HIATUS. I'm sorry. It's killing me.

Entertaining Notions: HIATUS. Chapter Three will be up...eventually.

Broken Routine: Tell me what you think!

An Avenger's Version of Love: The lack of reviews makes me cry inside. Tears.

Echoes of The Past: My friend Jasmin Kaiba and I are co-writing a Naruto story. The prologue is up!

Those Things We Do: Complete - written on a whim.

Those Things We Say: Complete - written thanks to popular demand.

A Little Complication: What can I say? Robin and Marian are soo adorable. And it's an excuse to bash Gisbourne.

When does a ninja strike?

A ninja waits until the time is right, when the enemy sleeps and drops his guard. When his weapons lie forgotten in the stillness of the night. That is the moment for a ninja to strike.

Quotes

The wall was not for a couple never to be. It wasn’t for hopes and dreams unlikely to be reached. It wasn’t for the names of a broken but fulfilled avenger and a kunoichi desperate to pick up the glass pieces of her heart. Because it wasn’t possible. She had accepted the fact already.
-Graffiti

Naruto: “Shut up teme! Don’t think you’re the only one who can play hero! I care for Sakura-chan too! Do you really think that I can get bribed by money in exchange for her life?”
-The Beautiful and the Damned: Chapter 11

And maybe that’s the hardest part. Maybe it’s not the first step of the journey that’s the hardest, but the second, the third, the fourth. The hundredth. Maybe it’s not as hard to begin things as it is to follow them, to finish them. Maybe it’s easier to give up halfway or to deviate from the path. You’re sure there’s another saying, another proverb, another piece of advice just waiting in the wings, but for now you ignore the impulse to assign a theme to the action. You’re just walking.
-Maybe You Can Owe Me

Shinobi Saying Twenty-five: A shinobi must keep his emotions on the inside, no matter what the situation...you must make the mission top priority...and you must possess a heart that never shows tears.
-Fitful Choices: Chapter 3

Miriallia: ...it’s hard to decide which path you’re going to follow, but it’s even harder to take a step forward towards that path, and to keep going, especially when it becomes harder to see the rest of the way.
-Connection

...the sadness will wane eventually. It will. I promise. Sadness never triumphs, Harry, so long as you can hope.
Hope is the one thing that makes us different from them, Harry. The ones that can’t end up on that other side; you remember, we saw them at the Ministry. You saw the despair in their eyes too, I’m sure. So always hope, Harry. Cherish your beliefs and cling to them, because they can give meaning in even the darkest times. In the end, it really doesn’t matter what’s true and what’s false...what matters is that you believe.
-Luna's Midsummer Letter

Rock Lee: You know that the Lotus of Konoha blooms twice, but Konoha's Cherry Blossom never fades.
-Blind: Chapter 23

Ron: The Dark side wants to instill fear in us. If they do, then we're half-dead already! If we keep living, keep loving, keep fighting with everything we've got, then we won't enter the battle half-dead. It's love that keeps us going, it's love we're fighting for. Love is what they're trying to destroy, to replace with fear and hate. Don't let them, Hermione. If love comes around, take it and hold it. it just might save you in the end.
-We Learned the Sea: Chapter 17

She's not asking for a fairytale (just a love story).
-a pocket full of sixpence: and, maybe it's your eyes

I will never admit how deep my feelings for this girl are, because I might get laughed at, or worse, someone might tell me how cute I am, and I know it's weird, for this guy who hates everything to be almost obsessed to the point when the whole town knows about my infatuation, but there you go. So I'll just keep it to myself, this secret of mine, this secret called Sakura, and this thought that maybe I might love her.

Sasuke: Love is...Love is a lot of things. Love is when you can't pay attention in class, because you're forever writing your first name with his last. Love is a song by the Plain White Tees. Love is a book like Pride and Prejudice. Love is the word most guys can't say and girls look everywhere to find. Love is the feeling I outgrew--but had for my mother when she made me blueberry pancakes on snowdays, or for my brother when he taught me to punch. Love is a common element in most books and movies and television shows, from"chick-lit" to fantasy to supernatural. It's almost always been between a guy and a girl who get together at the end, because they apparently only need to meet once to fall in love, and in spite of the hundreds of other people each character has ever met, the main ones in the show are always soul mates, of course.

We call for peace, but with guns in our hands~Lacus Clyne

If, like me, you've watched the entire SEED series, you'll hopefully remember Lacus's spiel during the fight for the Genesis. Its so damn inspiring! If not, here's the link: http://youtube.com/watch?v=PDiVS3gQ7Dg

Possibly, we humans can exist without actually having to fight. But many of us have chosen to fight. For what reason? To protect something? Protect what? Ourselves? The future? If we kill people to protect ourselves and this future, then what kind of future is it, and what will we have become? There is no future for those who have died. And what of those who did the killing? Is happiness to be found in a future that is grasped with bloodstained hands? Is that the truth? ~Lacus Clyne

The hardest battle is to keep on living.~Cagalli Yula Attha

I need you! Don't you understand that?~Inuyasha

I'm not the most eloquent speaker, so I thought I would bother a few words from Shakespeare. 'Love is not love, which alters when it alteration finds. When life gets hard, when things change, true love remains the same.' I look at Haley and Nathan and somehow I feel safer. I don't know if I can explain that but they give me hope. And I'm afraid to say it out loud because maybe if life finds out it'll try to beat it out of them and that would be a shame. Because we all could use a little hope sometimes, you know? That feeling that everything is gonna be okay. And there's going to be someone there to help make sure of that. So, here's to Nathan and Haley. Here's to hope, and here's to a love that will not alter. ~Brooke

Girls

are like

apples on trees.

The best ones are

at the top of the tree.The

boys don't want to reach

for the good ones because they

are afraid of falling and getting hurt.

Instead, they just get the rotten apples

from the ground that aren't as good,

but easy. So the apples at the top think

something is wrong with them, when in

reality, they're amazing. They just

have to wait for the right boy to

come along, the one who's

brave enough to

climb all

the way

to the top

of the tree.
