Haha, well that's cool with me :) It's always great to get feedback on something you wrote.
And I do agree, this story does have potential :)
Don't worry, you'll be the first to know
Why, thank you :)
I don't know, right now I'm caught up in a lot of stuff, but it's not impossible I'll pick up on it again.
Actually, I think I'll have a look at it, jsut because you asked.
It's okay. :]
It was pretty fine I guess ... Nothing special. Just came to school; met our new class teacher, got a new locker (they're really stupid ... I have a few problems with mine and today one shelf broke, guess I had too many notebooks on it xD) and no one bullied me for now. :]
Yep I know I was already pondering about it. Depends on what kind of employer you get. :)
But there are still some tattoo covering makeup products and I can still wear a ring over it ... But you're right. :)
Are you on college or something or do you work already?
Woohoo that's really cool.
I want a little rose on my left index finger right now; I was already talking to my mom about that and she haven't said a yes or no yet ... I'll try to convince her to let me get tattooed as my birthday present this year :D
Umm, sorry.
I thought that I left you a reply on your last comment ... but guess I didn't.
Great. I mean, if I saw right you're not even 18 and you already have 8 tatts. :D You designed them all?
So how old were you when you get your first tattoo?
Yeah, sometimes I feel like ranting, and if I read those things some days later, I tend to think that I don't make sense at all. Maybe it's because some days passed over the situation, but most of the time I don't even know what I mean with my rants. That's weird, isn't it?
Anyway, yeah, stars mean readers and commenters. Most of the great stories don't have many stars, because most people here prefer to read stuff that anyone can write. Trust me, if you're looking for a great story, you'll have to find a great author and not a ten-stars story :) some of them are very good, of course they are, but some of them just get ten stars because the author is famous or because the plot includes what most teenage readers (most Mibba population) wants to read: sex. Seriously, people are just unclean minds over here XD Alrght, reading this makes it look like I am exaggerating, and maybe I am, but seriously now; I've read amazing stories that don't even get four stars sometimes, so I don't judge a story by the amount of stars :)
And people hate con crit around here; seriously, what's wrong with that? I think it helps you to get better, but most of the people don't like to do that kind of mental exercise over a story; for them, a story is just meant to make you relax, forget about problems and have fun, not to be analyzed like you do in Literature classes. I disagree with that, because we're here to learn with each other, but that's just me thinking :)
wow, you wrote your comment in a way that took away all my words to answer you back, haha. I mean, I just don't know how to react, because you said everything in a way I have to agree with you. And when you agree with someone about something, what else is there to say?
It feelt very awesome to have any kind of feedback on what you write, the day after you post it, and even more when it's two months after you posted it, because it means that time passed ut it still caused impact. It feels very good and I'm very happy with all my commenters because they always make me very fuzzy on the inside. It's awesome.
However, people on Mibba don't comment now as much as they did once. At least, that's something that I've been feeling lately. People read but don't comment anymore, or maybe it was always like this and we didn't see it the same way because we accepted all kinds of things. But after some time, we grow up, we evolve as writers and as a person, so we see things differently and we're also more 'demanding' about other people. But seriously, it's okay. You tend to make friends here and they comment most of the time, and when they don't, they'll probably tell you why they don't, so it all makes sense and fits within your life circle. It feels good :)

I'd like to think that Purgatory is like that, where you wait for your living family to say goodbye to you to properly leave them and probably never come back, because saying goodbye is something important to everyone. I hope your nan got wings too; c'mon, if you're asking that, it's because she was a great person, so I'm sure she did :)
Why, thank you.
I'm glad you understood what I was trying to say with my story, because it includes a great part of what I think about death. And life too, because we gotta live the 'today', remember the 'yesterday' only when it's needed, and think of the 'tomorrow' only when we can feel it coming. It's just weird that I got to write a story about it, though, because I never thought I could write something so thoughtful. Seriously.
And the fact that the text is aligned to the right makes it even more... 'right'. What did you think of it? Did it make any sense to you, or was it chaotic? Maybe it was annoying... but I just had to have that layout because it's so crazy and fits the story in its meaning.
And people should always fall in love with what they write, in my opinion, because it's their baby. No one knows what can happen. It's a known fact that most very famous and great writers never enjoyed their writing much, and look what it got them ;)
Thanks. I've been trying to tell myself to always follow my instincts, but sometimes I jsut chicken out because I inwardly and secretly fear rejection. Or just 'saying nothing'.
:) xo
Telling the truth or not, I don't wanna be famous for not thanking my readers and commenters ;) There's just so much about this story that made me fall in love with it the first minute it came to my mind, especially because I had two characters that I had never worked with (as a pair of main characters, that is), so it was a challenge. And I took the risk. When I finished it, I was excited to post it; then, I thought the text aligned to the right, it's poetic, it's crazy and annoying and so are some of the feelings the characters feel throughout the whole story, so it made me fall in love even more. But today I didn't feel like posting it, for various reasons. I ended up following my first instinct, the one after writing it, and you popped up being my first commenter. That's awesome (:
Hey :)
I wanna thank you for that comment. It was simple, just giving me 3 words about your opinion on the story, but it meant a lot to me. I was having this weird feeling about posting it, if it was worth it or not, and people telling me such things is nice. So [b]thank you[/b].
