Hello, random-people-I-do-not-know! Welcome to my profile, the [awesome] SugarIsHEALTHY!! I have no idea why you're here, but oh well! Enjoy the insanity! Ha. Haha. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH- *cough cough* Ahem.

*I AM PROUD TO BE A HUFFLEPUFF*

If you don't like my stories, PLEASE TELL ME! Don't worry about offending me. Sure, I'll probably have to restrain myself from sending back a nasty reply, but I'd rather become a better writer with slightly hurt feelings than have an intact ego and bad writing. But, please, refrain from the "This sucks. Never write again." (Although you can say that if you really want to). But I'd REALLY appreciate it if you gave me feedback. For example, tell me if I should be more detailed, less detailed, should work on fluency, grammar, spelling, overall plot, etc. So PLEASE tell me :D

*BOOKS OF SUPER-AMAZING-AWESOMENESS (OR THAT I READ AND GENERALLY ENJOYED)*

Percy Jackson and the Olympians (AHHHHH!!! I THINK I'M GOING TO DIE FROM THE AWESOMENESS!!!)

Heroes of Olympus (See above comment :D)

Secret Series (Really good, but not overly obsessed with them)

Gregor the Overlander (Same as above)

Fablehaven (Ok, when they're really good, but I'm not unhealthily obsessed with them, it's going to be a '*')

Septimus Heap (* But I haven't read Darke yet... I was rereading them because I hardly remembered anything)

Thirteen Days to Midnight (* This book is amazing!! Although kind of morbid...XD)

The Prince of Mist (* Oh my gosh, this book is so scary! I hadn't really read many scary books before this one, I was more into scary movies, and wasn't sure how good a scary BOOK would be. But, MAN, is it awesome! *sigh* So amazing... :D)

The Lottery (* Really good! Love this!)

The Always War (* Really good, too)

Giver (* Had to read it for school and turned out pretty good... haven't read the other two because I'm really confused on the sequels [somehow]... Update: I've read Gathering Blue now, for another book project [I really don't know why they gave us another book to read a WEEK before school ends :( ] And now I REALLY want to read The Messenger)

Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac (Pretty good...[SPOILER ALERT] I love Will! At first, I was like 'Naomi! How could you be so mean to him?!?!?! D:' And then that ending...was NOT expecting that, but I liked it :) )

Candymakers (I love candy :D... And despite the odd title, it is actually really good :))

Life as we knew it (Friend forced me to read it, liked it, but haven't had time for the last two yet)

The true meaninng of Smekday (Better than it sounds)

When you reach me (Really good, but confusing at some parts)

Inkheart Series (Don't really remember what happens in it, just remember being majorly obsessed with them a couple years ago)

The Mysterious Case of Origami Yoda; and the sequel, Darth Paper strikes back (Don't judge. They are surprisingly good... in a stupidly hilarious sort of way...)

The Immortal Nicholas Flamel (Haven't finished the series but don't remember what happens in a lot of it... but I remember it was good)

The Hobbit (I really don't know why this is on here... I was forced to read it... after a REALLY long time of suffering I finished it... realized it was generally okay... started the Lord of the Rings... and stopped in the first one. I'm sorry. I just couldn't do it. [Does it annoy anyone else that hobbits don't have beards?])

That's all I can remember at the moment! Don't you hate it when you read so many books you can't remember all of them?

PEACE

*THINGS I DON'T GET*
(There is a surprisingly large amount :/)

WHY PEOPLE PUT 'NO FLAMES' ON THEIR STORY

Sorry anyone that does this, but I think it's just stupid. I mean, you can't actually do anything to stop them. (I guess you could report them... but that would kind of be overkill). It's like you're saying, "Yea, my story sucks, but I'm too wimpy to hear that, so lie amd say that I'm amazing so I can keep writing crap that nobody wants to read." I know that not all stories are like that, most aren't, but tha's just wha I get when I see that. Sorry if this offends anybody, but hey, you're the one that chose to read this.

WHY WE HAVE TO PUT A DISCLAIMER ON OUR STORIES
I just don't get it. I mean, we all put a disclaimer on our stories but this website is called FAN fiction. Made by fans. It's not like we actually think we own it, or one of us is secretly the author of their story and enjoys writing stories about their own books even though they could be writing a different book. It just doesn't make sense DX

HOW PEOPLE EVEN CAME UP WITH 'THALICO'

Thalia is a hunter, people! What part of 'eternal maiden' don't you understand? Plus, Thalia and Nico hardly know each other! For example, in the Demigod Files, when they originally get together at the beginining if the Sword of Hades, Thalia is all, "Bianca's brother?" Also, there's the little problem of age difference. Physically, Thalia is 15-almost-16 and Nico's 12-ish. Gross. If they aged like normal people, Thalia would be 20-something and Nico would be 80 or so. See the difference?

HOW PEOPLE THOUGHT OF 'PERLIA'

Do I really nees to comment on this?

HOW PEOPLE THOUGHT OF 'POTHENA'

I won't go into major detail here, but really? What part of 'sworn enemies for a REALLY long time' don't people understand? Sheesh.

HOW PEOPLE THOUGHT OF 'PERTAMIS,' 'PERTHENA,' 'PERSTIA,' PERCYXZOË, AND WHATEVER OTHER DISGUSTING PAIRING PEOPLE HAVE PUT PERCY WITH (I DECIDED TO STOP WASTING TIME AND PUT THEM ALL AS ONE)

I mean, really? What sick minded persom came up with these? Half of them are maiden goddessess, hate mean with a burning passion, hate Percy with burning passion (which just wouldn't work), or are dead. I will make no further comments.

ANY PAIRINGS THAT MAKE ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE (IN ANY BOOK)

They're just so random and messed up. I mean, it's not like (for example) Gale and Prim are just going to start randomly doing things that aren't allowed on T rated Fanfictions. (Gross). I'll admit, sometimes I like those unexpected stories, but that's mostly because it's written really well. I mean, if it's horrible grammar, and no build-up before the characters... get to know each other, then I think it's just a waste of space on this pointless (just kidding) website we are all addicted to. (Well, I am, anyway :/) (No offense people; again, just sharing my personal opinion)

WHY PEOPLE THINK HARRY MARRYING GINNY IS LIKE HIM MARRYING HIS SISTER

The aren't ACTUALLY related. I mean, sure, he thinks of Ron as a brother, but that doesn't mean he thinks of Ginny like a sister. And I'm sorry, Harmione shippers, she marrried Ron. Get over it. (That sounded kind of mean. Well, it was mostly talking to my Harmione friends. Two if them are making a fanfiction where tons of characters get stuck on an island [It's called 'Is This Ilse Esme?' If you want to check it out. It's good, in a... sanity-missing sort of way. Beware, it's a crack-fic so it's supposed to be...odd.) and I'm pretty sure they are going to sacrifice Ginny and Ron in a volcano. It might just be Ginny, while Ron ends up with Bella and Edward gets eaten [hehe. That's my favorite part] or Bella might commit suicide after Edward is eaten [That's a close second] I'm not sure. Yea, I don't know why I hang out with them either. [Kidding, guys!]

WHERE 'DRACOMIONE' CAME FROM

Not sure if I got the name right. Don't actually care, though. But, I mean, how unrealistic can you get? I can get how you might do it for an alternate universe, but how does it even work if it's not? Plus, need I go into the whole Hermione-married-Ron thing again?

WHY PEOPLE ONLY READ SERIES (THAT'S RIGHT, KENDRAANDGAVINFOREVER. I'M TALKING TO YOU)

Sure, I get that you're afraid the main character might die in it because there's only one book, but that could happen in a series, too. They could just go on without them, or change point of views. SO SUCK IT UP AND STOP REREADING HARRY POTTER. (Sorry. It just seems like she's ALWAYS reading Harry Potter! Not that that's necessarily a bad thing...)

WHY SCOTT WESTERFELD [SPOILER ALERT] MADE ZANE DIE IN SPECIALS (UGLIES #3)

He's so cruel. I love Zane. I SOBBED. (Okay... so I actually didn't; it would have been really awkward. It sucks reading emotional parts at school DX) Plus, my coughEVILcough friend laughed at that part. LAUGHED. Talk about adding insult to the injury DX

IF RICK RIORDAN DOESN'T MAKE A CROSSOVER BETWEEN THE KANE CHRONICLES AND PERCY JACKSON, WHY HE DOEN'T MAKE A CROSSOVER BETWEEN THE KANE CHRONICLES AND PERCY JACKSON

[CONTAINS SPOILERS] I mean, throughout the Kane Chronicles, he makes references towards the Percy Jackson Series SO MANY TIMES!! Red Pyramid: Manhattan has other problems, other gods. Throne of Fire: Carter sees a FLYING HORSE by the EMPIRE STATE BUILDING. Um helloooo? Serpent's Shadow: Oh, man. There were soooo many in this one. Let's see how many I remember, shall we? So, one, Setne mentions the Greeks when they are in the Apis Bull place. Something about them taking over their gods and hating them. Next. DREW AND LACY. I died there. (By the way, if you don't know why Drew and Lacy are so important... I have nothing to say to you.) Another is, of course, Sadie's mom telling her about the other gods and all that. Oh look, I died there too. Then, Sadie says they found unexplainable magic as close as Long Island. I DIED FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED FORTY TWO TIMES THERE. AND YES, I AM JUST SO SKILLED (haha, funny joke) THAT I CAN DIE AND COME BACK TO LIFE. There are probably more crossovers that I'm forgetting at the moment, but the point is, if Rick Riordan doesn't do a crossover... just no. I think he's trying to make us all go insane (it's working for me)

WHY PEOPLE DON'T LIKE PEETA

Oh, man. I've come to a subject that I could spend hours arguing about (and, coincidentally, have). I have some team-Gale friends (Hahahaha, losers :P [By the way, I was kidding {mostly}]) and they just WON'T GIVE UP. And, yea, like I'M gonna give up, either. So, many lunches consist of yelling, almost-strangling (that's me :D), and useless denials (my friend [Come on, give it up, Galeluver27, we know you're a secret Peeta lover :) ]). But, because I don't have any desire to spend hours typing, I will leave it at that. (But if anybody wants to PM about it, feel free :D)

WHY PEOPLE LIKE TWILIGHT

Well, I will probably have several angry fangirls after me :/... ah, well. What can you do? YOU WILL NEVER FIND ME!!! MWHAHAHAHAHA!!! Ahem. Twilight. Right. So, I, personally, find it disgusting. I know I can't really talk, seeing as I haven't seen the movies and have only read the first book (I started the second one but found I couldn't finish it AND keep my sanity. I stopped after that part where she goes to the movies and is like "I look more like the zomvbie," and I was like "I know, right?"). But, my previously mentioned Gale-loving (blech) friend is forcing me to watch them. She's all, "Yay, we can have a Twilight marathon!" while I'm like, "KILL ME NOW." But, alas, (funny word) nobody does because that is illegal and I don't actually want to die. Because that would suck. (And I wouldn't be able to update Fanfiction of course! Duh! That's totally what I was thinking... ahem.) I'm dreading that day. But, first order of business (heehee) is Bella. She. Is. PATHETIC. I HATE her. She's all, "I love Edward. Lalala- wait no, I like Jacob. No, he's a (hot) jerk; I like Edward again. Lalala." ARGH. Plus, in the second one, after Edward leaves her, she "chases" after him and ends up just sobbing in the forrest and then is dead to the world for a few months. And let's not forget the whole crashing motorcycles and jumping off of cliffs so she can hear Edward's voice. Sigh. SO romantic. Because nothing says romance like glittery (not even that cute) wimpy vampires who want to eat you and a pathetic girl who should have gotten eaten in the first chapter. Hehe. That would've been funny. But, anyway, I won't go on, because there are too many horrible things about that sorry excuse for a book to type at this moment. Update: I have now seen the first three movies. *shudder* My friends were all, "After this, you're gonna LOVE it!" And I was like, "Whatever floats your boat." And, shockingly, (not really) they were wrong.

And that seems to be all for now, although I'm sure there'll be more sometime... :/

Sorry if you're offended by any of this, but I never made you read it. You chose to yourself. Just sayin'.

TWO AWESOMELY-AMAZING MOVIES (THAT AREN'T BASED OFF OF A BOOK THAT I'VE READ [I.E HUNGER GAMES, HARRY POTTER, PERCY JACKSON, ETC. {OH, WHO AM I KIDDING, THE PERCY JACKSON MOVIE WAS HORRIBLE, IT WOULDN'T BE ON HERE EVEN IF I WAS DOING BOOKS}])

The Woman in Black OHMIGOSH that movie is so freakin' amazing. *sigh* For some reason, not a lot of people like it :( I mean, it's not like everybody dies...*spoiler* Just the main characters and all the little children :)

Insidious OHMIGOSH that movie is so freakin' amazing, too. Plus, if you search it on youtube, you can find tons of hidden things. i.e, When she's playing 'Tiptoe through the Tulips,' (I hate that song now *shudder*) and that little boy is dancing to it, if you go back, when she's walking through the laundry room THE LITTLE CREEPY BOY IS STANDING IN THE CORNER! It's so cool :D

If you can't tell, I like scary movies :D I actually don't really know why...

PEACE

WEIRD AND RANDOM (YET AWESOME) FUNNY STORY THAT I WANT TO TELL PEOPLE :D

Today in my science class, we had to bring M&M's for this weird activity we were doing. It has to do with survival of the fittest; you know, natural selection, blah, blah, blah. So, yea. My science teacher (He's hilarious... I can't even count all the funny stories from science...) calls it Survival of the M&M's. You hold two M&M's in between your fingers and put them next to your ear. You squeeze your fingers together until you can hear them crack. The one that cracks is dead. (Meaning: you get to eat it :D) The each groups get the 'strongest' M&M from their bag and then we all send them up.

Some weird person had the crazy idea of naming them, so they all had names (My class is weird...) My groups was De Sean or something (I didn't choose it) My Gale-loving friend (*gag*) named hers gale (It doesn't deserve a capitol) Of course, the next group, who just so happened to have a Peeta-lover in it, names there's Peeta :D. Peeta and Gale were against each other first and everybody (the girls) were all "PEETA!" or "GALE!" (Actually, the one who named the M&M that was basically the only Team Gale in there :D) And, GUESS WHAT? Peeta won :) (Duh!)... Well, if we're going to get technical, Gale fell apart before the teacher even squeezed them (...that sound odd...) So, naturally, Peeta won by a long shot.

He made it to the final four, along with De Sean (I have no clue how that sorry excuse for an M&M made it that far... Oh! I think two cracked at once so it didn't have to go up against either of those two..) Phillip, and Joe, (who had made every M&M it went up against crumble... and of course, Joe just HAD to be my other friends M&M [I have no idea whose M&M Phillip is... I think it was the people who thought of the name idea...]) So first, Joe went against Phillip, and the after having one of them crack the teacher was like "... Joe has crushed everyone of his opponents..." Here a bunch of people started cheering "...Except Phillip." Poor Joe :(

Then, De Sean went against Peeta. Even though, De Sean was my group's, I was rooting for Peeta (Duh!) And, of course, he won :)

Class was about to end, so we were all getting up and putting the chairs on the table when the teacher was doing Peeta and Phillip. He announced it right before the bell rang and... Phillip won :(... But at least Peeta beat Gale :D

Sorry, I just really wanted to get that out... It had to do with The Hunger Games, so how could I NOT do something with it? :D

16: Have friends or coworkers address you by your wrestling name "Rock Bottom"

17: When the cash comes out of the ATM yell, "I WON, I WON"

18: When exiting the zoo, start running toward the parking lot, yelling, "Run for your lives they're loose"

19: Tell your children (or younger sibling) that "Due to the economy, we are going to have to let one of you go"

20: And the final way to keep a healthy level of insanity is... Copy this and put it on your profile

One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class who was walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked like he was carrying all of his books.

'Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday? I thought to myself. He must really be a nerd.' I had quite a weekend planned (parties and a football game with my friends tomorrow afternoon), so I just shrugged my shoulders and went on.

As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running toward him. They ran at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt. His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him. He looked up and I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes. My heart went out to him.

So, I jogged over to him as he crawled around looking for his glasses, and I saw a tear in his eye. As I handed him his glasses, I said, "Those guys are jerks. They really should get lives."

He looked at me and said, "Hey thanks!"

There was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude. I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived. As it turned out, he lived near me, so I asked him why I had never seen him before. He said he had gone to private school before now. I would have never hung out with a private school kid before.

We talked all the way home, and I carried some of his books. He turned out to be a pretty cool kid. I asked him if he wanted to play a little football with my friends, and he said yes. We hung out all weekend, and the more I got to know Kyle, the more I liked him, and my friends thought the same.

Monday morning came, and there was Kyle with the huge stack of books again. I stopped him and said, "Boy, you are gonna really build some serious muscle with this pile of books everyday!" He just laughed, and handed me half the books.

Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends. When we were seniors, we began to think about college. Kyle decided on Georgetown, and I was going to Duke.

I knew that we would always be friends, and that the miles would never be a problem. He was going to be a doctor, and I was going for business on a football scholarship. Kyle was valedictorian of our class. I teased him all the time about being a nerd. He had to prepare a speech for graduation, and I was so glad it wasn't me having to get up there and speak.

Graduation day, I saw Kyle. He looked great. He was one of those guys that really found himself during high school. He filled out and actually looked good in glasses. He had more dates than I had and all the girls loved him. Sometimes, I was even jealous!

Today was one of those days.I could see that he was nervous about his speech. So, I smacked him on the back and said, 'Hey, big guy, you'll be great!' He looked at me with one of those looks (the really grateful one) and smiled. 'Thanks,' he said.

As he started his speech, he cleared his throat, and began, "Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through those tough years. Your parents, your teachers, your siblings, maybe a coach . . . but mostly your friends . . . I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best gift you can give them. I am going to tell you a story."

I just looked at my friend with disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to kill himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Mom wouldn't have to do it later, and was carrying his stuff home.

He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. "Thankfully, I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable." I heard the gasp go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment.

I saw his Mom and dad looking at me and smiling that same grateful smile. Not until that moment did I realize it's depth.

Never underestimate the power of your actions. With one small gesture, you can change a person's life. For better or for worse. God puts us all in each other's lives to impact one another in some way. Look for God in others.

You now have two choices. You can either, 1. Put this on your profile. Or 2. Forget you read this and act like it didn't touch your heart. As you can see, I took choice number 1. 'Friends are angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly.'

1. Of Soup and Unknown Diseases reviews
They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results, but apparently no one told Katniss that, because it seems she has created her own version of it. Or rather, the fangirls have. Good luck, District 12.

2. Expulsion reviews
"He found it ironic that while so much had changed in his life, the rest of the world remained untouched. He just saw it in a new light now." Red should have seen it coming. But, really, what were the chances of being caught?

Is it a coincidence that Carter and Sadie have to go to a school that already has more than enough magical beings? Maybe. Probably not. I don't own Percy Jackson and the Olympians or the Kane Chronicles.

5. Lights reviews
If it were his choice, everything would be different. He'd still live with his family-minus his father, of course; it's partly his fault Nico's life is like it is-and his mother and sister would shine the way, be the lighthouse in the storm. But Nico di Angelo isn't normal, even by demigod standards.
