It's time to get this sorted out!
I've got a book report to write in English. Never done one of those before. My genious teacher just gave us a handout and told us to follow the instructions. Due Monday. Nah, it is pretty basic and she only wants a few hundred words, I'll probably write just a tad more than that. And no matter how much I procrastinate I know I'll do a good job and get an awesome score.
Then I have to do my science assignment on the serial murderer. There is a little more info. on Paul Denyer. I wouldn't have a clue what's legit. and what's not, however I doubt the teacher does. This one has himself the reputation of the Frankston Murderer. Killed a few girls there. Interesting past, things like dissemboweling a cat. A little sickening, however interesting. And now he's in jail and filing for a sex change, despite the fact that he "hates women".
Interesting stuff. I'd better get a good mark for it.
I've decided to ad-lib the book report.
I'm not making things up, but just guessing my way through it and incoorperating quotes so I seem smart. Works every time, and it is often misenterpreted as 'insight'.
Only thing that confuzzles (:lol:) me is, do I have to include footnotes at every quote if everything I'm saying is clearly from the book?
Nah, that'll drive my teacher mad. So I should do it.
No, I'm not that bad. Would rather not bother anyways. :D
I'm stupid.
No you're not. I don't even know what you're talking about, but you seriously are not. You are a genious, but you're still growing up.Quote:

I'm half way through my book report andit has taken all day.
I'm up to almost double the number of words I'd hand in in any other assignment.
This is going to take ages.
When I'm finished with it I'll make it a blog entry. May as well get some genuine praise/criticism for it.
I want to write my story, but I don't know how to get it started.

I was thinking more of how to develop each character. How should I introduce them? What would capture the reader's attention to want to know more?
Explain them as your main character meets them. Of course that is the easy way out.
I'm thinking, if anyone has any banana Nesquik or any sort of milk flavouring, it tastes awesome in tea rather than sugar.
I don't know if it is healthier, I must find out.
I'm going to steal a method from one of my favorite authors...my main character is going to have hazel eyes that change from clue to green to brown based on his mood. The method is that my character can be identified by the description of his eyes.
Awesome. I don't know much about that side of writing anyway. And I'm a thirteen year old kid with my head in the clouds.
I just did fifty starjumps, that is my excercise done.
A single cup of wine, when drunk in moderation, can feel like an entire ocean.
You are too young to drink.Quote:

I'd continue but I'd only argue with you. Of course it is none of my business so for once I'll try not to butt in any more thaan I already have.
Actually, a glass of wine daily is medically proven to improve your health...
Yea. That is a plus side.Quote:

That's probably only my opinion though. Alcohol is one of those topics that seems to get on my nerves...
That's my Nurse Toni ;)Quote:

Yea, yea. I know. I'm incredibly over-protective though. One of my friends is about your age, drinks only as much as you seem to. Got drunk once and stuff happened. I worry too much.Quote:

It's not very boring, as I was thinking it would be. Hopefully I'll finish it soon.
Is feeling less headachy and more "i wanna pass out and sleep"
I can't believe that I forgot to use the hair conditioner in the shower this morning...
I pretty much look like a dandelion.
ugh! work! gotta go!
Damn, my throat is dry...
Why must people be so rude and inconsiderate?
Because they are people! :pQuote:

Why, oh why are cover letters so annoying to write and edit?
Maybe i should ask her what happened?
I should spit this Listerine out. At this point, it's probably not killing any more germs. Just becuase I'm too lazy to spit it out is no reason to keep swishing. But maybe I'm getting my mouth super clean...
maybe someday, some moviemaker will read this post and have a character in their movie swishing mouthwash for like 30 minutes because he or she is too internet-addicted to get up and spit...the movie won't be about that specifically...it'll be about something else of course. This Listerine swishing could just be some little quirky thing that the character does as part of her quirky nature...
^ I think I should spit a lot more than just Listerine. Keeping all within is getting unhealthily obscure.
The first line from a particular bengali poem that I once wrote. The line, if translated, goes like this: And again today, I sold a man to buy a god....
I like those pre-made salad mixes where all you have to do is empty the little satchets and toss.
They aren't honestly that convenient, but they taste nice. :D
I cannot believe its been years since i've logged in.
I think I give up...
I'm giving up too...Quote:
