Will I ever settle on a place for Phoenix in The Neighbourhood? I think of a place, then I get bored of it... it needs to be a place that Phoenix has control over methinks.  |

-figets- I've decided on a new base for Phoenix and I think it might actually go somewhere... but I don't want to stop the RP in Regent St. and I keep changing it anyway. -sulks- If/When the RP dies, I'm in there! Though I don't know how to clear threads of posts....
also my stars have gone walkies again. Why is it always me?

So how did that happen exactly? O.o -sighs- I guess I'll just have to sit back and watch the RPs for a suitable amount of time.
I'm still bugging you.
You'd better! If you left me like that I don't know what I'd do. When you come back, you'd better go looking for Callier.
I'll do whatever my facade would like me to.
You do realise you're true self will be on show in our argument thread?
Yup, but other muses don't see that. And if they do then pfft. So what?

Over the hills and far away,
for ten long years he'll count the days.
Over the mountains, cross the seas,
a prisoner's life for him there'll be.
He knew that it would cost him dear,
but yet he dare not say.
Where he had been that fateful night,
a secret it must stay.
He had to fight back tears of rage.
His heart beat like a drum.
For with the wife of his best friend,
he spent his final night of freedom.
Over the hills and far away,
he swears he will return one day.
Far from the mountains and the seas,
back in her arms he swear he'll be.
Over the hills and far away. I'm waiting for 3 different things. I've been waiting for a while. I hate waiting. |

I'd like to use a very similar plot to what happened to Phoenix in the FA for an original story seeing as the plot's so complex - Phoenix's glaring at me but I'm sorry; Owl's so fun to write! Is he good? Is he evil? Is he a coward? Is his cowardice justified? But I think it'd be very hard to write it well without all the background you have in Tolkien fanfiction. I'd have to create substitutes for:
Morgoth
Gorthaur (I call him Gorthaur now instead of Sauron all the way up to Frodo and Sam... I blame that Sinda over there... you know the one)
Beleriand
the Valar
the Sindar
the Noldor
the Kinslay
the Eagles
and I'd have to change them in such a way that the original context of the plot isn't obvious.
... I really want to do it but I wonder if it's worth it and if it would even work.

I don't go a bundle on Jack Sparrow but my god Depp's a good actor! I've just watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (the new one, obviously) and Alice in Wonderland and Wonka and the Hatter are just... -squees-. Or maybe I just have a thing for mad, elfin men with alabaster skin. -shifty- -adds Depp's name to the 'actors I'd like to play Thranduil' list, as of now 3 names long-

I don't feel great. I'm getting a cold, I've realised how terrible I am at French and I'm staying with a family there for 6 days, I need to do a Philosophy investigations paper essay (and I hate the A-level Philosophy course; it's really shit and not even proper philosophy!), Dad keeps yelling at the internet/HTML which always gets me down and I've got to shift my bodyclock forward 1 hour in 2 days to account for the different time zone in France and then forward another one because I'll need to get up at 6 local time rather than 7. And also my internet connection has suddenly decided to forget all my internet passwords and has decided that I suddenly don't have the right key to use it when nothing's -censor-ing changed!  |

Uh, brain? Can I stop translating things into French sometime soon, please? I doubt my parents will understand if I say 'pas grave'.

How long does it take to reply 'Yes, okay' or 'No, not yet'? I know they've got the message so why haven't they replied?! -shakefist-

When I have my own cat - well I have 3 cats at the moment but they belong to the family - I'll probably name it after some LotR character. But:
My aunt had a kitten called Bilbo Baggins who ran away.
There was a dog called Frodo on Animal Hospital ages ago who had to have one of his front legs amputated.
So my question is, would calling a cat Saeros be tempting fate? Note to self; don't call cat Saeros if living near a large ravine

This is getting stupid. I ran for all of a minute 8 hours ago and my legs stilll ache like heck. >.< I think there's something else bubbling under here... ie a cold. I hope it's a cold anyway; I can walk all day so why can't I run?

I wish I could draw!
Well the I guess I should practice. I'm not going to get any better if I don't practice.
But I don't have the time. And I don't want to draw Phoenix or Thranduil or Galion or Emlyn and Nathaniel or even Saeros when I can't do them justice.
Even so the only way I'm going to get better is if I pick up a pencil and draw.
But you can't deny that having someone there telling you where you're going wrong is helpful. On my own I could stare at a drawing for ages and notbe able to figure out what's making it look terrible (apart from everything). Therefore I shall save up for some lessons to get me started. You can't say that's not a good idea.
I guess you can't. But you'll have to wait a long time for that siggy in that case.
I guess I'll just have to wait -sigh-

Understanding the UK's foreign policy is so much easier when you realise she's going through an international-identity crisis.
You aren't a super-power anymore, girl, you're just messing things up! Just take a back seat and let the USA and China take over.

So at the moment, there's a bit of a move-around going on upstairs in my house, as you might know if you read my telling Phoenix. So basically spare room = study (essential stuff moved) study = my room (everything off the desks still all over the floor) my room = spare room (yet to be changed) Desks, chairs, computer, laptop and printer were moved from the study to the spare room yesterday and all the clutter and stuff on the walls is still in the study. Only I had to move a few things just now: ...I actually can't write without my maps! |
