If you're interested, please check out my blog - http://weeklyshortnsweetstories.blogspot.com/. I decided to challenge myself. I'm going to write a short story every week for a year (starting January 30, 2011). If you want to read more of my writing, watch that space!

Also, if you're a fan of Lost (the TV show), take a look at these adorable comics on LiveJournal: http://benryknowsbest.livejournal.com/. They're all based on Ben Linus, and they're so cute and funny. :)

I Like: LOTR, Star Trek, Artemis Fowl, Batman, Sweeney Todd, Rent, Amadeus, Star Wars, swimming, reviewing, writing

I Love: Scrubs, Johnny Depp, Harry Potter, LOST, How I Met Your Mother, the Gone series, the Mortal Instruments series, The Social Network, reading, getting reviews, Disneyland, going on vacations, emailing, animals, writing

I Hate: that creepy hag in Snow White, the fact that everyone's eyes "tighten" in Stephenie Meyer's books

My Current Obsession: Hamlet/Shakespeare. We read Hamlet in class recently, and I absolutely loved it. The themes and characters really resonated with me, and the language was beautiful. I liked that it had humor and drama. I enjoyed the plot as well, once I understood Shakespeare enough to follow it. ;) For my next school book, I read Macbeth, which I also enjoyed. I've decided that, nerdy as it may be, I like Shakespeare.

Other Random Things: New story up! It's a HIMYM story called Five Times Barney Let His Guard Down (And One Time Robin Did). I've always wanted to do a Five Things 'fic, although this is actually going to be a chaptered story of oneshots. I want to thank everyone who's reading it, and let you know I'm working on the next chapter, but I've been very busy so I'm not sure how soon I'll get it up. :)

If you're bored, check out my favorite stories list. I know it's long, but you can sort it by category and just pick the ones you like. They're all worth reading.
