Ok, i know i said last night would be my last post, but i was tying up some loose ends over here and decided to pop in with one last reminder that if you want to friend me, the new journal is _chasingliberty.

For those who don't this is goodbye :)

A few things

Sun, 29 May 2005 21:18:22 GMT

So i thought a lot last night about what i want to do with my life. I want to make an impact. i want to do something worthwhile and after what happened with my brother i know something that one day, when i've had a bit of a career and earned some money. I would like to start a company or an organisation that helps people who have criminal records to start over. A place where some can have jobs, a place that helps them find jobs. Just an organisation that is there to help and support them. Perhaps that has people go into schools and talk about their pasts andthe effect that has had on their life and maybe help other younger kids not to go down the same route. I don't know, maybe it sounds stupid and probably i'll never get the chance to do it, but with help i would like to do it someday. I think it would be really good and worthwhile.

Also, this is my last EVER post in this journal other than icon stuff. From tomorrow, i move to the new journal, _chasingliberty, so if you want to be a part of my lj life still but haven't friended me. Now is the time to do so.

For those who don't, thanks for being my friend until now. I love you all to bite, you are fantastic people

OC Love and finals

Tue, 24 May 2005 21:46:18 GMT

Ok, so i LOVE The OC. I mean i liked season 1 and i was getting into season 2 but these past few weeks it has totally escalated. I just love it. The show is so awesome. I dunno, maybe it's my love all of american soap opera type shows (i know the OC isn't technically a soap opera but apart from this show having GOOD acting, there is a certain soap opera quality to it) and franly this is quickly becoming one of my fave shows. I never miss it anymore. Can't wait for next weeks episode.

I think my final went ok today. I won't say i did gfantastic but i think i passed. I have my third final tomorrow afternoon. I have so far memorised 2 out of 3 topics and i will memorise number 3 in the morning before i go. Thank god for spider diagrams. I can memorise it in a little over an hour. After tomorrow i only have one more to go. I can't wait.

Oh and don't forget to take the how well do you know me? Quiz from my last post,

And also please tell me why you like me, why you friended me and why others should friend me. Kind of like testemonials of me that i can put in my new journal.

Oh and if you wanna stay on my friends list for more than just fic and icons, then go on over and friend the new journal, _chasingliberty , if you haven't done so yet. Because as of monday it will be the ONLY journal i post personal and life stuff in. And in a couple weeks it will most likely go friends only. Thanks guys :)

A Fic thing

Wed, 18 May 2005 20:08:17 GMT

K, so i have been working on a new story. It's one i was determined not to post until most of it was done. But it's got to the stage where i really wanna post it now. What do you guys think? Should i go ahead and post it? Do you gusy want me to post it here? I'm leaving the decision up to you :)

New Story

Fri, 13 May 2005 00:20:42 GMT

Hey guys, i just wrote this new story. It's no pairing or character, it's supposed to be like thoughts written in a journal. I don't want to spoil it, but i was just inspired to write it about 30 minutes ago and it's the first time i've been inspired to write in ages. So, here it is hope you like it.

Life

Have you ever had one of those days? You know, when life just becomes one huge question? I don’t know, maybe it’s just me, but today life was one huge question. Nothing made sense; I didn’t understand why I did anything that I have in my life. Choices of boyfriends, jobs, college. None of it. It had all be completely clear at the time. But today, I was walking down the street, minding my own business and drinking a caramel frappuccino and suddenly it hit me. What is life? What is MY life all about? And it’s all I’ve been able to think about since.
First I went back to work after lunch and did what I had to do. I came home, ate dinner, had a bath and then I had nothing else to do but sit. And so, I have had no choice but to think about it. So that’s what I’ve been doing for the past three hours. Thinking about it. About my life from as far back as I can remember. And do you want to know just what I’ve thought? It’s quite lengthy considering I’m 26 years old so there’s quite a lot to say but here it is.
I started off thinking about elementary school. You know what it’s like back then. You’re innocent and you can just go with the flow and enjoy life. But even then, at like 8 years old we still have problems. Our life can still be hell and we can still hate it. Looking back, the majority of what annoyed us was completely trivial and pathetic but it was important to us then. So it must have been important in the grand scheme of things right? I mean, I remember one time, I was in fifth grade and my mom had given me peanut butter and jelly for lunch. I’d had it two days in a row so I decided to swap it with my friend for I can’t remember what exactly, it was some kind of lunch meat (I just remember I had p- b and j because, well, it’s what I always had) so we swapped. And I took hers and ate it. And for some reason it made me sick. It got me a day off from school the next day. But why did I swap lunches? Was it just because I was fed up of peanut butter and jelly or was I secretly hoping to get sick so that I could have a day off from school? I don’t know the answer to that question but I wondered about it today.
Then I thought about 8th grade and my first real date. It was a guy who sat behind me in French class. I had hardly ever spoken to him and when I had it had only been to ask if I could borrow a pencil. But he asked me to some valentines day dance and o said yes. But I’m still not sure why. I think it was because my friends all had dates and I didn’t want to be the odd one out. And it was such a terrible date, so awkward. He talked all night about something so dull I can’t remember what it was. And then he wouldn’t dance so I was standing on the sidelines, watching my friends with their dates having the time of their lives. But I hadn’t wanted to be left out by having a date. I didn’t want my friends to think I was a loser. So for two months I dated a guy I had completely NO interest in until he decided I was boring and dumped me.
The whole theme of guys kept up through high school too. Dating guys within my ‘social’ group, because to date someone from outside of it, well that would be a disaster. And the thing was, we were kind of popular in high school, so you can guess the kind of guys I ended up dating. Jocks, and just basically guys who were incredibly cute with zero substance. They liked drinking and partying and sports and I went along with it, even though I preferred to sit in my room with a book or my diary or in front of my computer writing a new story but I couldn’t tell them that. When I started dating the real Mr Popular though, I even ended up allowing my friends to persuade me to become a cheerleader. I had no interest in it but I went along with it so that my boyfriend could keep up his image. Cheerleading, the most annoying and dull ‘sport’ on the planet. I would hardly class it as a sport but I was repeatedly told that it was, so of course it must have been true. I was a cheerleader until college.
And THAT is where the parental pressure comes in. I wanted to go into writing. Do a degree in journalism or something, but my whole life my mom and dad had been saying how much they would like a lawyer or a doctor in the family. Well I didn’t go pre- law or pre- med but I did manage to keep them happy by agreeing to do psychology, the way my mom looked at it I was still some kind of doctor. So, although it wasn’t what I really wanted I did 5 years of school to get my graduates degree in psychology. They were so proud. I was miserable, I almost joined the college newspaper at one time, but my dad pointed out that whilst extra curriculars are good, the newspaper wasn’t exactly fitting the right credentials for a psychologist. Instead he pulled some strings and got me an internship with a local practice. That was a lot of fun. Not.
And boyfriends? Well that didn’t change very much. I still dated guys that I didn’t like but who I looked good with. Who fit the right image, the kind I could take home to daddy and he’s be incredibly impressed with their background in high school sports and their future career as a lawyer. Not my type at all, but eventually we all have an image to keep up. I moved in at 23 with a guy I dated for 6 months, sure he was nice enough, he was cute and sweet. And he was pre- ;aw of course, was I happy? Not really? Did I break up with him? Nope. Why? Because I didn’t know how. I didn’t really think that I could. I had become so accustomed to dating guys like him that I figured I may as well stick with the one I had now. Even if he was a bit boring and really at 23 I still had a lot of living ahead of me. I just couldn’t do it. I had graduated I had a job. I was expected to have stability now. Be a grown up and be responsible. Have a good job, get married. All of that.
Did it really matter what I wanted? No. Not really. Because it’s an image. And now here I am, 26 years old, working as a psychologist, not a profession I hate but not what I’m passionate about. Still writing in my journal and writing stories that nobody will ever see. Still with a guy that I don’t love because people expect it.
That’s what I’ve discovered. My life, it’s not really mine. Since I was a kid, I have lived my way the way others have wanted or at least how I thought others wanted. I didn’t have the guts to say what I wanted and date the guys I liked, and do the degree I wanted. I let people sway me the way they saw my life going. The direction they gave me. Not the direction I figured out for myself. But isn’t that how we all lead our lives? Deep down, we all care way too much about what other people want from us and how they expect us to live our lives and it has taken me this long to figure that out. That I’m leading the lives of lots of other people, but not even partially my own, because none of it is what I decided really, and definitely not what I wanted. And do you know what’s the scariest part? I’ll keep it up. I’ll go back to work tomorrow, crawl in to bed beside my stable boyfriend tonight. And live my life as if I never figured any of this out.

So, i know a lot of writers are becoming disheartened in the writing fandom because of all the plagiarism lately, or lots of flames or whatever. And i thought, where better to air all your annoyances about the writing workld than a community designed specifically for that. This is a community not for slagging off other writers, but where you can rant about what is getting on your nerves about writing in the buffyverse fandom. What do you hate about flamers etc. Anything you hate about the fic writing world, whatever gets on your nerves, rant about it at fanfic_bitch

So dpread the word to all your writer friends and join the community and feel free to save the banner and promote it around.

Mon, 07 Mar 2005 10:36:54 GMT

I'm very happy today in some ways cos i won first place in an icon contest, so i'm happy abt that, i'll put up my pretty banner when i get home from uni. But there is some stressful crap going on with my brother that i will tell you all about later, which makes me not so happy. But for now, i'm gonna let myself be happy :D

Announcement

Sun, 06 Mar 2005 01:46:22 GMT

Ok guys i want to start off with thanking everyone for yiour support today, the whole situation got to me, bt with the help of my fab lj friends and day of talking with Nikki, it occurred to me that i am stronger than just lettin what people think stop me from doing something that i love. And i;m not gonna start letting it now. However, i have a lot of uni stuff going on so i am gonna take a hiatus for a few weeks. Starting next week. You're probably wondering, why not start this week, well the reason is irishrose1 has had a fantabulous idea, this week is going to be Fanfic Author's Appreciation Week.

So throughout this week post about who your fave authors are and why. Dedicate posts to your fave authors, do anything. Because sometimes an author needs to know that people enjoy their work. And it can make all the difference.

And i want to take part in this, i want to shaow my fave authors that they are appreciated. So i may not post lots of normal entries but i will post about this.

Thanks again everyone.

So i'm sure a lot of, if not all of yiou, have heard about the kantayra plagarim issue. darlawinifred got caught for plagarising from Kantayra. Well darla was the first person i spoke to online she was my first beta and i considered her a friend. Unfortunately, as her friend i felt i had to give her the benefit of the doubt and i went out of my way yesterday when i was dealing with a world of shit in my own family to help her out. I got her acct details and deleted theplagarised chapters because she was adamant that she didn't copy the scene and someone else had. I admit the story sounded suspicious to me, but as a friend i gave her the benefit of the doubt. And what good did it do me? None, because now i have been dragged into it as having been in on it, have been told that i have the same lack of writing skills that she has and that i think it's ok to steal as long as you admit it. I don't think any of those things, i do not condone what she did, i am angry, i was trying to be a friend. And now my writing has been talked about in a negatove way because of it. Well if that's what happens for trying to be a frined then i give up. I will keep writing but only for myself. I won't be posting. I won't be talking to Darla anymore and frankly i dunno wot else i'm gonan be doing but i feel now as if i did something wrong for trying to be a friend and be fair to everyone. That's it, i'm done.
