Random Writing

Hi everyone! I'm sorry I missed last Friday's post. My final English project was due that weekend, and I had to spend a lot of time working on it. But I'm back now!

And I have nothing planned. Again.

Well, I was taking a look around my blog the other day, and I realized it could probably use some cleaning up. I haven't been updating my Writing and Sketchbook pages as often as I should be, but I'm definitely putting that on my list for the summer.

Let's see, are there any interesting stories I can tell you? ...Nope, sorry. Other than finals this week, I've been working with the role-play writing club in my school so that we can finish up our story for this year, I've been watching an unhealthy amount of Warehouse 13 and Doctor Who, and I've been writing a lot.

I suppose, then, I could share some of my writing with you. It has been a while, after all. Not all of these are my best work, but they're some things I've been working on recently. Enjoy!

Silent Stories - A poem (?) that takes place in a library. Poetry isn't my forte, but I feel like this one turned out pretty well.
Solitary - This is one of longer things I've written lately. It's a dystopia where people have been forced to live alone to stop the spread of contagious diseases.
Your Imaginary Friend - A short story written from the perspective of a child's imaginary friend. I still have to go through this and edit it a bit, but it's one of the most recent things I've written and I thought I'd share it.

Well, this post turned out to more random than anything else, but hey, I did post! Anyway, I'll be back next Friday! Until then!

"O God Save Us All"

Hey! So I checked Disciple FB page today (cause I have ways of doing that) and I see a little announcement about a card you can get that allows you to download some new songs in advance! So I, being the cheapscape/genius I am, go on YouTube and search for "O God Save Us All". I am rewarded with this:

"Outlaws" - Disciple

"Oh God Save Us All" - Disciple

Oh yes. This, just like "Call You Out" did for Flyleaf, jsut reassured me that Disciple is still as heavy as they were on "Scars Remain" and "Horseshoes & Handgrenades". The full album is being released on November 13, literally just weeks after "New Horizons". Oh my gosh I can't wait!

Anyone else as excited as I am?

Oh, and on a completely unrelated note, I was thinking of doing a total overhaul of my blog's template. Any thoughts?

Generic News and Thoughts That I Think You Should Read Even Though You're Supposed to be Working or Something

Longest title in the history of mankind. Score!

Aaaaand moving right along.

So I'm still trying to get used to the new Blogger interface... I tried to hang on to the old one as long as I could, but I guess this isn't as bad as I thought. Just... I dunno, different. But not like completely alien. It sorta has this Google Docs-ish feel to it, and I happen to use that thing a lot. But anyway, if this thing looks like freakishly formatted, that would be why.

And I'm gonna keep jumping from topic to topic because I can get away with it. I asked my friend the other day if she thinks I have ADD, and she says, "Without a doubt yes."

Next topic of discussion: Music! Yeah, so hopefully you've listened to "Call You Out" and liked it. If you did, I have good news for you! "New Horizons" (the entire album) is going to be realeased on Tuesday, October 30! EXCITED!!
And also, Thousand Foot Krutch finally released their remixes for "Light Up The Sky" and "Let The Sparks Fly"! You can download them here. And while I'm talking about TFK, I would so kill for a wristband that says "Be The Change". Note to self: write TFK an email.

Yes, I've been having an obsession with wristbands lately. I had an OCD moment the other day when I went to my friends' School of Rock show and bought a wristband there. And then I realized I could put wristbands on both of my hands. *slow, sarcastic clapping*.

So yes, there is more still! Click the jump to read it!
You know how tempting it is.
Just click it.

Console to Closet

Okay, so I just thought about posting this now, but a few weeks ago there was an article on Zelda Universe about this website called Console to Closet. What it is is a website with outfits that someone has designed based off of various video games. For example, there's one for everyone's favorite antagonistic AI, GLaDOS, Assassin's Creed, the magical Princess Zelda, and even Amaterasu from the game Okami. So if this kind of thing interests you, it's really a great website to check out. There are so, so, so many different designs to look at, I can bet ten dollars there's something you'll like! So you can either click that link above, which will take you to the homepage, or you can go to the archive and see the entire list of outfits on the site! Have fun!

New Blog!

Hey readers! My friend from our school's writing group created a blog for her awesome writing, and I thought you guys would like to check it out. It's still new, so there's not too much yet, but I know she'll definitely update it with more. Anyways, here's the link to her blog: Tales of an Amateur Author
