You're welcome. :3 I really love this group of books, they're awesome, and I'd recommend them to you, buy the first, buy the next two if you like that one. Or peek at the last one, then buy the first. Personally the first two books are my favorites, they're sweeter. The two main characters are so sweet together, I fell in love with them.

I'd love to read a book if you ever wrote one. Personally, I can't imagine writing a book of my own- I'm always indecisive and if I write something, I'm way too shy to actually show it to someone else. I'd be no good at a novel writer- I do write poetry sometimes, most of it's the deep, thoughtful, nonsense type things. I wrote one recently I'm in love with. Let me grab it...

Who put the clocks in charge?
They're
Vile, demanding,
They run a tight schedule,
AND
they're strict!

Freedom
It can't be acheived with these
Lords, Emperors, GODS!
I Impeach you!

But who am I
One person against their power?
One person to stand against them
One to protest
One to fight

I recruit you!
I, leader of rebels!
We challenge these so called 'rulers'!
We fight, to death or victory
We fight for our lives
We fight for freedom


Very sketchy, but I like it. I've been overwhelmed lately, and the time on the clock is running my life. I just want to scream and declare time complete bogus, I feel a bit trapped. So, that's my feelings in a nutshell. It's not too good, but yeah. That's the personal journal of the day.

I have other poems- sometimes my family says a phrase and I get inspiration. Like earlier, my brother didn't want to do a chore, so...

"I'm broken down!"
"Do we need to throw you in the junkyard?"

Which basically became the first two lines of a poem I wrote, even though the poem talks about my feelings on what to do when I'm old and worn. Really, when I'm an old, ill, dying lady, I don't want to be put on life support. I am not a living vegetable. If for some reason my body is still alive but what makes up me- my personality, quirks, thoughts- all of that is gone (or if I'm in some accident and I can't do anything anymore, so I'm trapped in my own mind for ever) I don't want them to keep me around just so they feel like they didn't let me die. Because, if they don't, I'm just a dead person anyway. just let me go // don't make me suffer.

Which sounds completely emo at the moment, but I've got some weird views on life. Most of my poems are sad, I can't seem to write 'happy'.

I'll defintly keep that in mind. After I feel like reading fiction again, I'll need some good books.

I write fanfiction, which tends to eather be loved or shot down. xD I used to write poetry, but I don't much anymore. Just not inspired like I used to be I suppose.

And that poetry is just lovely! It reminds me of several revolutionary wars, and it also reminds me of the teenage need to rebel ^^; Very lovely.

That quote made me laugh xD; I should start doing that, I mean writing down quotes from the day that inspire me. Thanks for the idea! >w<

I always feel like I'm about to explode lately, like all of my matter is spread about and being held in by small wires or something. Strange feeling, but aren't all emotions strange?

sorry to bud in but i couldn't help but read your poem... i thought it was very good, it kind of reminded me of the Dali painting,, with the melthing clocks. But if you can write poetry and express yourself in that manner that is amazing, not many people can do that. I'm just good at musical expression aka piano...lol

Thanks for the feedback- While I usually like my poems (usually because they've got special meaning to me, obviously), I don't really like to share them. I guess I feel like they're not really up to par with other poets and etcetera. I just write freeverse poems, any other kind I forget the rules of.

I suppose it's a bit of just explaining my need to rebel. I've got a ton of responsibilities and duties, and I feel overwhelmed at times, sometimes you just want to take a break. Sometimes, you need a sanctuary. (haha, quote from a journal of mine). And it' would be a definite revolution there, what with the one person against all that power and influence? I don't know how small armies get their motivation, but where they do, it's something powerful. To each his own, too. I myself don't get motivated all the time to write poetry, but sometimes I just have to bring my book around and write when I see fit.

I don't usually even work hard on poems. I remember our poetry slam for english, I had my last, longest, etcetera poem written already, hoping to win. I didn't like it though, it was impersonal. So I wrote a new one off the top of my head (in about a minute) and used that one, instead. I ended up tying for first place with two others, because we didn't have time for another round. I'll see if I can find it, I liked that one alot.

Fanfiction? I might be interested in some, if you'd send me a link. Pm if you don't want them public, for whatever reasons.

I don't like emotions sometimes. Sometimes, they're like roses, sweet and beautiful, but they all hide torns, wild and twisted. Those things can't be fenced in, no matter how hard you try. They have their roots sunk deep and their petals on tight- and sometimes, you don't know where the happiness ends and the horror begins. (yes, spontaneous poetry stuff. lawl)

Hey, I've seen that painting before. I like it, it's very unique. I used to play piano- for over 3 years, actually, but I despised it the ENTIRE time. There were days my mom would say "You sit on this piano bench until you practice for an hour and you're gonna like it". She'd come back later and find me deep in slumber, dangling off the sides. Last year I took up violin and I love it, but I have no time for lessons or practice right now. I might try to start it again next summer, but it's been so long I don't know if I retained anything. I don't want to start lessons in the middle of the school year, because it'd mess up everything I'd have gotten used to, in terms of homework and study and all that other junk we get into when we go to high school. Thanks for the compliments, they're amazing.

Hey, Taylorsue! Great to see you here, seems like the common room's dead nowadays. Or today, anyway.

It's a ghooost town. Maybe it's just all them ghosts running around. I think the Grey Lady is the ravenclaw ghost- but are there others, I don't know. Hmmm.

My greatest strengths are in believing in other even if they had betrayed me, Also in wanting to help everyone that I can and if they need it.

Welcome to Ravenclaw, AwkwardKlutzyGirl. I just got sorted in here like two days ago so I am kinda new too. Nice to meet you.

Thank you so much for the welcome I'm so happy that I'm a Ravenclaw whee I was so sure that I would be sorted into Huffelpuff just because that is what I normally get when I do the quizzes on Quizilla. xp But I'm so happy here as a Ravenclaw.

Welcome to all the new people xD;

Yes, welcome, Klutz and Taylorsue (may I call you klutz, actually? I wasn't sure). And thanks, Taylorsue, I like the dress too. Even though when I draw my avi, I draw her with the speed style hair.; They just didn't have the right color orange in speed, so. Haha.

Haha, I draw my avi too much. Sketches, anyone?

In order, Myself (haha, vain) Halli (my avatar) and Katie Marie (a little girl, a new character of mine)

Anyway, welcome all the new people. Ravenclaw's a bit too small for my tastes- sometimes you've got to wait a bit for a reply and all, it can get a bit lonely. I'm hopping over to the Great Hall to chat, now, I'll check back later.

Nice sketches, phreise. And yeah, likeAwkwardKlutzyGirl said I thought I was going to be in a different house because I get Gryffindor a lot. But I like Ravenclaw. They are more friendly with Gryffindor so that is okay. And thank you Oraiste' for the welcome.

biggrin Hay, thanks. I don't usually draw in that style, it's more realistic than what I usually draw, but anyway. Pen on paper.

I asked for Ravenclaw myself, I think I fit in here more than anywhere else. I'm not a really brave kind of person, or a sneaky person, or an everything else kinda person. I like school and push myself to acheive, (though sometimes more on art than schoolwork, haha) so I felt I'd rather be here. Even if Gryffindor is the main, big, famous all-around goody house. Haha.
