I just spent so long looking at icons that it's not even funny.
Four hours by my count, which may or may not sound lame to you guys.
And now just found out you can only have a limited number at any one time...well LOL to that...In other news, my dad got remarried over the weekend and I finally got off my ass to write something. Hopefully the trend will continue (writing, not weddings, as my family figured out that the only unmarried woman left is ME...)
What else...
Fire Emblem. For the GBA, any of you got it?
It won't save on our GameBoy Advance or our DS. Might be worth noting that the GBA is the SP version, and the DS Lite. Maybe it doesn't work on those models and is only designed for original GBA? Somewhat annoying, as obviously it's nigh on impossible to really play without a save function. Anyone got any advice or had a similar problem?
I think that's it from me this time, just thought I'd update before falling into a trend of ignoring my journal already (although no doubt that will follow soon enough).

Do you feel funny if you're using the wrong tools?
Just an idea I thought of when doing my latest short fic. I wrote half of it in a black pen and it looked awful. As soon as I switched to my usual blue biro, all was well. Do you ever find things like this? You have to use the same pen, type of paper? Or f you're computer users, how about typing up a story on someone else's keyboard?
I think that last one would really rile me up.
Or maybe I'm just being crazy and it doesn't matter to you guys, just what I think.

In other news...wait there's nothing.
Oh, a german speaking test tomorrow, but that's not important. Well it is, but admitting that means revising. Nooo.
Well, I was thinking of giving a small intro to some of my characters, as they are more a part of me than I am (if that makes sense, which it does not). I wasn't going to do a whole entry on it, but as I've started...
They're all from NaNo, which is still really incomplete and needs editing all over.
Leigh - The kickass heroine of just 14 years of age. Reasonably short, with cropped hair and a confident attitude. If I was stuck in a dark alley, she'd be the one I'd rely on for my rescue.
Damien - Leigh's younger step-cousin. Short, pale, blonde and moody. Has bulimia. Complains about everything sarcastically. Somewhat obvious he's going to hit a personality 180 by the end.
Vanessa - Leigh's nextdoor neighbour, probably shorter than your knees with curly hair dyed an impossible red. A total crackpot in so many senses of the word. A lot more intelligent than she'll ever let on.
Kathy - The brains of the operation, and also the heart. She believes in al things warm, fuzzy and kind-hearted. Clever, and surprisingly cynical when muttering under her breath.
Alex, Tenby and Ethan are older character, roughly 18, who are general comic relief - getting up to dorm antics and minor criminal activities whilst on sugar highs. What can I say?
Farewell for another day

Well...unlikely.
We can always hope.
A little about myself, I'm a writer. And by writer I mean student who is still nowhere near getting anything published. Go me.
Well, I hope to post shorts up here, as well as
This is my first attempt at a proper blog/journal, because dA doesn't count, and I'm determined to make the most of it.
Until next week...when it'll float into the graveyard of forgotten userpages and MySpace folders...
So, the floodgates are open!
