Well, being that I have Mono and I can't go back to school just yet, I'm drop dead bored and decided to just type.
I'm really craving my internet right now. Now being able to download SUCKS, and I'm dying to find out what's happening in the latest chapters of the Naruto manga.
I still haven't gotten around to ordering my tablet or my Akatsuki cloak yet. -o- Hopefully soooon.
Ok, I wanted to talk about the sorta Naruto fanfic I've been writing, Family of the Forgotten. I'm on Chapter 5 right now I believe. So far the story has gone through...5...years I believe. I skipped some of course, being I really only wanted to hit the important spots as I'm still writing to get to the main point, when my character Hiniku goes of to Konoha! As I always am about my work, I doubt my writing abilities, and so I really don't think the story is brilliant, or even good really, but I'm proud of myself for not quitting and getting so far. I mean I've never really gotten as far as 19 pages.
the story itself is TOTALLY inspired by music. For ever word a type in the story, I'm listening to a song that I believe fits the scene. I'm not going to spoil too much, but as examples, during the murder scene in Hiniku's house, Especially the part where Hiniku is shoving the kunai through her chest, I was listening to rock, particularly Shudderfly, the band who sings "Home" and "I Hate Everything About You" (I forgot the name...something with Three I think), and basically those kinds of songs. During the funeral scene, I was listening to slow, sad songs, such as Sarah Mclaugen's ((sp...I know)) "I Will Remember You". I find listening to the music puts me into the scene deeper, allowing me to see what goes on in my mind a lot clearer. Whether I'm expressing it in the right or wrong way in my writing is opinion, but I know that I can feel exactly whats going on. If I were a better writer, I probably could say my writing was better, allowing you to feel the emotion of the story. I Hope my writing does that, but again I'm an amateur and I don't feel that confident about my work. However, I really enjoy writing this story through, and I can't wait until my ocmputer gets it's internet back so I can show Yuki, and maybe some other friends, a chapter or two. No internet allows me to get ahead though, which is really good. xD When I do show it, I hope the people who read it like it.
Well, I'm getting a headache and I have to take my medicine. (T.T) And my butt hurts since I got that cortizone shot in my a**. So I'm off to the medicine and maybe a good nap. Toodles, fockers! <3

Sorry if it's really big. ^_^; But I realized how much you thought Suki was cool, so I drew her with the avatar I best remember of Iia. :B And since you're sick, I decided to add the "Get well soon" part to it. =D Yaaay.
x3 As my cool, old English teacher, Ms. Chelson, would say, "The longer, the better." :B So I strongly encourage you to continue the story, unless somehow, you want to stop. But you sound really good about getting at it. And a lot of people, I'm sure, don't like SOMETHING about the writing, if not the whole thing. I usually don't like what I write. First, I do, then when I read it over, I don't. It's something we don't realize. We're good writers, but we can't see that. :3 Same goes for art, too. People tell me that I'm a really good writer, and I believe that, but some things about it I'm not good at. Maybe people tell that to you, too, and you're just not confident about it. n.n; It's alright to feel that way, and it's natural. But I love to read your writing, and I say that you're even better at it than I am! x3 Because of the way you describe things, and you defineately are able to express emotion very well.
Music usually distracts me from writing. :B However, not all the time. Remember that poem you read in my journal? I think I was listening to some pretty soft Kingdom Hearts music to that. ;3 Hee. Otherwise, it is distracting. I wish I could work well with music, though.
Toodles to you too, Focker! >=D
