  <title>Just took my ACT</title>
  <link>http://marigold-tales.livejournal.com/90570.html</link>
  <description>...think I did all right right, though to be honest the &quot;science&quot; portion (really, it should be called &quot;critical thinking&quot;) was ridiculously, maddeningly impossible to do in 35 minutes or whatever. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;:) it&apos;s okay, i think I did all right.</description>

  <description>Her little 100 poems, 100 days thing is tomorrow and oh god i cannot write poetry&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so yeah&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Uhhh went to a friend&apos;s birthday party today. Was fun, though I am, as always, the awkward silent person &apos;cause I know a third of the people and am bad at being social! But it was still fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OH YEAH and I found some of the earliest shit (fanfic) that I ever posted on the internet (not the &lt;i&gt;earliest&lt;/i&gt;--that was some Yu-Gi-Oh story on an old forum that is most certainly defunct and gone at this point though I &lt;i&gt;could&lt;/i&gt; go looking for it) and it was on MediaMiner back in 2004 and ahhhh. I think that&apos;s the only thing I am too embarrassed to show anyone from my old stories &apos;cause it was so fanbrat and ahhhh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway--something else from the Story With No Name But About A Group Of Ragtags &apos;Cause That&apos;s Hip, yo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;cutid1&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Amy, what the &lt;i&gt;hell&lt;/i&gt; are you doing?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An important question, as she wasn&apos;t so sure herself. Look, it was her son&apos;s birthday--decorations were cool for parties, right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Fucking mustard yellow?&quot; Peregrine said, gracing her with his well-thought opinion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apparently not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was a slight breeze from the open windows at the back of the house, cooling every room with gentle autumn chill. Amy looked sadly on her lovingly picked streamers and dropped them to the floor. Peregrine was such a spoilsport.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;I thought it looked nice,&quot; she mumbled.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;No.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Ingram likes yellow,&quot; Amy said and hopped off the chair situated near the window over which she had tried to hang the streamers. The sound of her son&apos;s happy squealing sliced into the room, and then her other son&apos;s remonstrating followed. It would be a lazy afternoon, if not for Peregrine and their job and the fact that they had to go to a royal dinner that evening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Ingram is not going to be a pansy.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Yellow is a perfectly masculine color.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;When he was &lt;i&gt;two&lt;/i&gt;.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Amy sighed. &quot;No streamers, then?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;He&apos;s going to be ten, Amy. Did you have streamers when you were ten?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;I don&apos;t think I ever had streamers. I ate lots of bacon, though,&quot; Amy reminisced wistfully. To this Peregrine raised an eyebrow, making him only more attractive and possibly being the single article that forced her to team up with him in the first place--a single raised brow in her direction, asking simply if she really wanted to do what they were about to do. It had been lucky that she was stupid enough to think she really did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Mother, are those streamers?&quot; Suddenly Reed was in the kitchen and giving a skeptical one-over of her decorations. He was much more like his father than the boy himself believed. Amy threw up her hands in defeat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;I never get any respect around here.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;</description>

  <description>Whooo second draft is done of &lt;u&gt;Autumn&lt;/u&gt; now I just gotta type it up and then start editing whooooo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am thinking of using a lj writing place to write something not at all related to &lt;u&gt;Autumn&lt;/u&gt;. Just for a change of pace. :3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know what? I&apos;m already thinking on a sequel. Not because it really needs it, because i think there&apos;s more stories in that tiny little universe I&apos;ve got going on. a semi-sequel, really.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I dunno.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It&apos;s the weekend. &amp;hearts;</description>

  <link>http://marigold-tales.livejournal.com/87642.html</link>
  <description>Wow I have like nearly zero inspiration to write and yet I banged out the last bit of chapter 13 and typed up the rest of the chapter 6. Got stuff done. *bangs chest* ARA GOOD.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m also really bored and there&apos;s NOTHING to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I did a bit of worldbuilding earlier, mainly for my story with a huge cast. I love those characters so much and it makes it so fun to kind of figure out who has what relations. It&apos;s more like I&apos;m discovering them than anything. Okay, so, not really lacking inspiration, then. I guess I just don&apos;t FEEL like writing today. Self. I don&apos;t understand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nonetheless--back to world. It don&apos;t got a name, neither the world nor the story, but it&apos;s the closest I&apos;ll ever get to a &quot;romance&quot; but whoops I focus on other things and there&apos;s---shhh---plot so UH. But I&apos;m callin&apos; it romance &apos;cause the story follows several relations. Mainly the characters of Peregrine, Amy, Ephraim and Dream, but it then kind of segues into stories about characters they know and about their kids and it&apos;s one huge world. :3 I like it. EVERYBODY&apos;S PRETTY DAMN SEXY AYUP.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I need to get back to doing fandom stuff. In something. Anything. I NEED TO KNOW MORE WRITERS i feel like an island in a big sea. &amp;gt;: I&apos;m the only one I know who writes, and it&apos;s only &lt;span class=&apos;ljuser  ljuser-name_kusani&apos; lj:user=&apos;kusani&apos; style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://kusani.livejournal.com/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif&apos; alt=&apos;[info]&apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://kusani.livejournal.com/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;kusani&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; that writes on my flist. I&apos;M BAD AT THIS GUYZ too bad i&apos;m not into fandom anymore&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;maybe i could be hip if i were&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hmmmm</description>

  <description>My throat is &lt;i&gt;killing&lt;/i&gt; me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, cramps just wasted my entire saturday. I spent it mainly curled up in bed, waiting for the pain to stop. &amp;gt;: But today I have to get things done! Mainly 1:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finish my Euro AP stuff&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And 2: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finish Chapter 13 of &lt;u&gt;Autumn&lt;/u&gt;/&lt;u&gt;Autumnway&lt;/u&gt;/whatever!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had better get it finished by today. X&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Man, and I keep coughing. My abdomen hurts. Accursed pollen, destroying my body! After college, I gotta move where there&apos;s none. Like, the desert.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or maybe a tropical island.</description>

  <title>The Beginning of the End</title>
  <link>http://marigold-tales.livejournal.com/87172.html</link>
  <description>I think there is an irony in the fact that the supposedly most &quot;exciting&quot; year of high school begins in the most boring of manners. I can understand the lackluster reaction to the &quot;First Day of School&quot; but it seemed to only put me off of this year. I am quite aware that one must start immediately in the learning process, especially under a time constraint, either semestral or yearly, but it just makes me feel so &quot;blah&quot; about it. The Pre-Cal class I have signed up for is too small for the strange immensity of occupants (why would so many wish to take Pre-Cal when it is an option?) and as loud as prior math courses I have had in my school career. The only classes that stuck out for me as being possibly fun was English 4 AP, Euro History AP, and Latin. That is only three classes. Sure, Astronomy started off a little less mediocre than the others, but it was nothing special. It is my hope that senior year will be far more enjoyable than it is beginning to feel like. To end ones monotonous torture with a soft thump is no sound reward for the bang you&apos;d had or hoped for in prior years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eh. School Is Looking Okay.</description>

  <title>Two entries in one day? God forbid.</title>
  <link>http://marigold-tales.livejournal.com/86666.html</link>
  <description>I need a new layout. I hate how it hides the dates. &amp;gt;:|&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been reading slash fanfic lately. It&apos;s been so long since I&apos;ve read any fanfic. And for some reason it makes me want to write short little fics for my to-the-side stories. But I can&apos;t, I got my official-want-to-publish story to do! Augh oh well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Going to watch my brother&apos;s football scrimmage thing tonight. And eat. Delicious. (the food part, not my brother&apos;s scrimmage)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fucking neighbors dog keeps whining at window. &amp;gt;: Would be nicer about it but she&apos;s done it for the last month and one can only have so much sympathy after that long.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eh, something:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;cutid1&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To say he was not a man of honor would be lying, but to say he was not a scoundrel would be foolish. It would be easier, of course, if she would simply stop trying to psycho-analyze the man. He would call it a waste of time, and she was eager to agree, but that would be giving him what he wanted and she was not in the mood to do so. Blowing against her hands to apply &lt;i&gt;some&lt;/i&gt; sort of warmth to them, it had to be several digits below any kind of acceptable temperature, Amy glanced up at her distracted partner. He was sharing angry looks with both his best friend and his jammed submachine gun, both an inconveinance at the current moment. Ephraim, aforementioned best friend, chattered away without any indication of knowing his causing irritation. Amy hid a smile when Peregrine, her partner, jabbed his elbow into Ephraim&apos;s stomach to shut him up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Shut up,&quot; he grunted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Ow--okay, goddamn.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just another day. Amy shook her hair and went to Ephraim&apos;s aid. Neither honourable nor rogue, he was just Peregrine, and that was a good enough reason as any to denote him husband.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Didn&apos;t edit this so sorry if it makes no sense &apos;cause it come out of nowhere!</description>

  <title>Under the open skies, oh my~</title>
  <link>http://marigold-tales.livejournal.com/85726.html</link>
  <description>Eeee. The rough draft of the first chapter of whatever this story is going to be called in the end is 10 pages~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just barely but shuttup.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One would probably go why is she cheering. What. Because I have this horrible thing where I only seem to be able to write things that are short. 10 pages is basically a typical length for a first chapter in most books (not all). I&apos;m just feeling more confident with it now. I just typed it up--it still needs editing, of course, but what do you know. It&apos;s like at its roughest, but I&apos;m really proud of that chapter so showing it to people at its worst would be embarrassing but I wouldn&apos;t feel so bad at it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m planning to really struggle to find someone to publish this story. This is it. Like, I know this is how I want it to go. On the last version of this story, I was &lt;i&gt;certain&lt;/i&gt; that it was the one that was going to be published but of course it wasn&apos;t. But I definitely can feel it on this one. I&apos;m just so jumping with glee right now. I&apos;ve been feeling kind of depressed lately about my writing because the rewrite of the story was going slow (I&apos;m doing it by hand currently) but I was just hit with inspiration and totally finished the seventh chapter. Seven more to go, but you know what?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don&apos;t care. &amp;lt;3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m wondering, flist, of the few who actually attend this sorry excuse of a journal--I suck at this, I really do--if anyone would read it? I&apos;ve shown bits and pieces of it already but I would just like honest, general feedback on it, not necessarily any grammatical editing; I am quite aware that it is riddled with mistakes from beginning to end, but simply: do you like it? Would you keep reading? Does it get boring? Does something need to be spiced up? Just stuff like that. Um. Yeah, so. A-Anyone who&apos;s interested. &amp;lt;3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was a long entry. I must be on a roll today.</description>
