This one day I was reading a book called White Magic, and I was totally offended by it. {Ralph agrees with me.} It's about these girls who form a witch coven, and things happen between the friends. The coven is not exactly Wicca, but it's good magic. Well, in the story when someone joins the coven they gave rules to follow if one wished to be in the coven. One of them was: no blogging. When I read that, I was like GASP!!! with the extra exclamation marks. I was absolutely horrified/insulted. The reason for the rule was that blogging "gives away a part of you" or something like that. Then I wondered: do I give away myself on my blog? Weird thing to blog about, huh? Well, since I'm so confident that no one's reading this anyway, I'll just keep blabbing. Personally, I think I'm blogging about nothing. At least, nothing of significance. I just want to look back at this some day, when I'm all old and stuff, and see what kinds of things I thought about when I was young. Kind of like an electronic journal. But cooler than that 'cause it's Google and it's on the internet. {Unless, for some stupid reason, Blogger's system crashes and all of this is gone forever. But I don't like to think about that.} Paper is so temporary, changes are hard to make, waste of ink if you want to print pictures and all. I've thought about like a personal journal, but that's no fun because you're just writing stuff that only you are going to read because it's so personal or something. Knowing that you are going to share it makes you feel like you want to put something interesting, right? {Sorry for being rediculous, I just watched some documentary on philosophy or something, it's messing with my brain.} Back to the book. It was pretty good, and involved a lot of poetry. The spells were really cool, and some parts of it were kind of funny. The author is Kelly Easton, incase you want to read it sometime. {It's a young-adult book.} Of course, I have nothing to do with the publishing/selling of this book or anything, and I'm not trying to get you to buy it. I hate salesmen/infomercials. O_o Just go to the library. Duh. :)

Excuses, Excuses

Ah, it's been a while since i've been here, had to do a lot of catch-up work. [Yes, i treat this very seriously, like a job. Well of course, i'm my own boss, i get to write about anything, and nobody reads this anyway, maybe except Ralph, so i dont get pay.] :) It's winter, i'm cold, and i have about a thousand different excuses for why i haven't been writing recently. [Yes boss, forgive me!]

1. It's cold, my fingers lose energy and i lose my train of thought. They become all frozen, and i can't type properly. My brain just kinda goes into lag mode. Also, i keep having to add on more and more pieces of clothing, making it hard to complete my work since i can barely move. I feel like a puff ball.

2. I have a BUNCH of stuff to do. [That includes homework, homework, homework, homework, homework, homework, homework, homework, homework, homework, project, project, project, project, project, practicing that darn music, dissolving chocolate, and collecting fruit in AC.] It's just a never-ending list, and posting on my blog isn't exactly going to fit on there quite well.

3. There is like almost nothing to write about, since my "Writer's Notebook" operation is totally failing. Really horrible, one might say. I barely remember to write in it every few days, and not very many interesting topics occur to me while the pen is immobile in my grip. Not very inspirations from other places either. Winter just seems kind of dead. However, i must say that i am still writing in my journal. [You know, i really cant tell the difference between writing in the two. Except, one is a really bad spiral notebook, and the other is this huge binded book with smooth paper and pretty lines^^.] Anyways, im trying my hardest to keep detailed notes of my day so that when the government finds my diary they can publish it and i'll become famous when i'm dead! [Throws hands in the air*.] Yea, no.

4. Too many distractions on my computer. One minute i would be working on my blog, then the other minute i would be talking on some instant messaging program. Then playing some games. Then working on my website project. Then i'd be playing some more games. Before you know it, my time's all gone. So i end up not turning on the computer too often, i have lots of other stuff to do.

5. What can i say? It's gets tiring sometimes, i run out of energy to do anything, anything at all. [That excludes eating ice cream.] Lazy, i guess? It's a trait in everybody. EVERYBODY EXCEPT THOSE DARN PEOPLE WHO GET UP SO EARLY IN THE MORNING ON A DAILY BASIS! [Shakes fists at young people running around.*]

There, was that good enough for you? Ah, probably not. I have very high expectations from my boss. [wink*] Ok, that was really relieving for my writer's block. My fingers ARE getting cold...
