So you decided to look at my profile... welcome =)

"My aim is to agitate and disturb people. I'm not selling bread; I'm selling yeast." -- Miguel de Unamuno, a writer and philosopher (1864 - 1936)

About Me:

I'm a typical high school student with little outlet for my heavily over active imagination. I am a great fantasy lover -- Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia, and Mortal Instruments series can attest to that -- and I have a good number of my own worlds in my head, now writing said worlds down is the problem. I wish to be a writer someday and to travel as much as I can.

I'm introverted, blunt, content, imaginative, accepting, sarcastic, witty (in my own way), careful, and short girl. That's really all that anyone needs to know.

Reviews:

I review for nearly everything I read: especially if your story is on my alert or favorite list. I always respond to all the reviews I get with a quick thanks and smiley face. Personally, if you are reading a story that you love REVIEW! It doesn't take too long, and a nice review will make the author's day (I should know). I welcome any and all comments; yes even flames. Would I prefer a thoughtful well-rounded review, of course, but I still would like to know what you're thinking about my story, no matter what.

Stories I Read;

Anything basically; mostly in the Chronicles of Narnia, and Harry Potter though; so if you need more of an audience for your story, feel free to PM me!

Disclaimer:

I own absolutely nothing that may be recognizable to you readers. Those belong to the very talented authors that I borrow from; anything that you do not recognize is probably made by me. I don't purposefully steal from another's work (though there probably is stories out there similar to mine). Basically I don't own anything minus my OCs (which I use quite often)

5/5/09 -- I had a sudden epiphany today that made me realize something very important -- I'm crazy. XD. No lie, I really am; or at least I'm not very normal.

Reasons that I am in fact crazy;

1). I hate crowds, and prefer to be by myself.

2). I'm a teenaged girl who hates shopping (except for books) and going to the mall.

3). I'm not obsessed with finding a boyfriend -- (I'm somewhat a romantic, and believe that when/if my "Prince Charming" comes, I'll know immediately.)

4). I like Shakespeare, and would read it on my own, if I had the books -- (which I'm planning on getting sometime soon).

5). I like some classical music (okay so maybe this isn't a big factor)

6). I continually listen to Avenue Q (A Broadway musical)'s soundtrack.

7). I do not wear make-up (I like my face the way it is, thank you very much! And even if I didn't, why would I like it more with make-up on my face?)

8). I'm home 99 percent of week-ends, and like it!

9). I don't know what my favorite food, favorite music, favorite band/singer, favorite movie, or favorite book is -- I don't see the point in choosing just one (I like too many to choose anyway)

10). I do not watch TV 24/7; I only really watch three shows. (Law and Order: Special Victims Unit (best. cop show. EVER!), Supernatural, and House).

11). Sometimes I talk like a freaking sailor, and other times I'm very prime and proper and polite (Maybe it has something to do with the different variety of books I read)

12). I talk to myself (though I prefer the term thinking out loud).

13). I hardly ever talk on the phone/text. (sometimes I wonder why I even have a cell phone)

14). I do not and will never get an IM account (if I had something to say I would send an email/call/or text someone (not that I do any of that very often but...))

15). I have a red hair fetish (it has nothing to do with a certain stupid, sparkling vampire. I've always liked red hair. Not sure why)

16). I actually made a list of the reason why I think I'm crazy! ;)

My Stories In-Progress:

10 Writing Tips From the Masters -- I didn't write this, by the way, I got it off a website.

1. Cut the boring parts. -- I try to leave out the parts that people skip. ~Elmore Leonard

2. Eliminate unnecessary words -- Substitute “damn” every time you’re inclined to write “very;” your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be. ~Mark Twain

3. Write with passion -- Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart. ~William Wordsworth

4. Paint a picture -- Don’t tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass. ~Anton Chekhov

5. Keep it simple -- Vigorous writing is concise. ~William Strunk Jr.

6. Do it for love -- Write without pay until somebody offers to pay. ~Mark Twain

7. Learn to thrive on criticism -- You have to know how to accept rejection and reject acceptance. ~Ray Bradbury

8. Write all the time -- Quantity produces quality. If you only write a few things, you’re doomed. ~Ray Bradbury The way you define yourself as a writer is that you write every time you have a free minute. If you didn’t behave that way you would never do anything. ~John Irving

9. Write what you know or what you want to know -- If any man wish to write in a clear style, let him be first clear in his thoughts; and if any would write in a noble style, let him first possess a noble soul. ~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Learn as much by writing as by reading. ~Lord Acton

10. Be unique and unpredictable -- I owe my success to having listened respectfully to the very best advice, and then going away and doing the exact opposite. ~G.K. Chesterton Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative. ~Oscar Wilde Zest. Gusto. How rarely one hears these words used. How rarely do we see people living, or for that matter, creating by them. Yet if I were asked to name the most important items in a writer’s make-up, the things that shape his material and rush him along the road to where he wants to go, I could only warn him to look to his zest, see to his gusto. ~Ray Bradbury

COPY AND PASTES

OBITUARY FOR THE LATE MR. COMMON SENSE

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.

He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when to come in out of the rain; why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn't always fair; and Maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6 year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get Parental consent to administer Calpol, sun lotion or a band-aid to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason.

He is survived by his 3 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, Someone Else Is To Blame, and I'm A Victim. Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.

What happens if you get scared half to death twice?" –Unknown
I understand that Scissors can beat Paper, and I get how Rock can beat Scissors, but there's no way Paper can beat Rock. Is Paper supposed to magically wrap around Rock leaving it immobile? If so, why can't paper do this to scissors? Screw scissors, why can't paper do this to people? Why aren't sheets of college ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they attempt to take notes in class? I'll tell you why, because paper can't beat anybody, a rock would tear that crap up in two seconds. When I play rock/ paper/ scissors, I always choose rock. Then when somebody claims to have beaten me with their paper I can punch them in the face with my ready made fist and say, oh, I'm sorry, I thought paper would protect you.
Although, chainsaw beats scissors, paper, AND rock!

We were given; Two hands to hold. Two legs to walk. Two eyes to see. Two ears to listen. But only one heart? Why? Because the other was given to someone else. For US to find

'Dream as if you’ll live forever… Live as if you die today.'

I am the girl that doesn't go to school dances, or games, and when I do go, I sit in a corner and read a book. I am the girl that people look through when I say something. I am the girl that spends most of her free time reading, writing, or doing other activities that most teenagers wouldn't call normal. I am the girl that people call weird and a freak either behind my back or to my face. I am the girl that doesn't spend all her time on MySpace, or talking to a girlfriend on a cell phone or regular phone. I am the girl that hasn't been asked out in a year. I am the girl that has stopped to smell the flowers and jump and splash in the rain. BUT I am also the girl who knows and is proud to be who she is, doesn’t care if people call her weird (it's a compliment), who loves reading and writing and doing the things that no one seems to have the time to do any more, who loves and is obsessed with the Chronicles of Narnia, who can express herself better with words than actions, who doesn't need a guy to complete her, and knows the importance of the little things. Copy and paste this onto your account, and add your name to the list, if you are anything like me, so the girls who are different and unique can know in their weakest time that they are unique but not alone: Iheartjake, TeamJacob101, Boysareadrag, The Dawn Is Breaking, secilmis yazar, All The Pretty Horses, ElvesWizardsCentaursohmy
