DarkestStorm / Comments

I think we might actually have after I commented on your story, but then accidentally deleted it going through my comments. Sorry about that. I still keep meaning to go through and leave comments on some more of your writing, but I haven't been on Mibba very much as of late.

I'm doing well. I've just been writing (or, well, outlining) a lot, watching some TV shows. I love how laid-back the summer is.

Hello! We never started a conversation with each other. How are you?

Thank you so much for the recommendation! please don't hesitate to comment or subscribe!

Yeah... there are actually a lot of scenes in my stories are inspired from real life events. It seems more believable that way, isn't it?

It's worst after I watch horror movies. I couldn't even go near windows which sucks because my bed is right next to a window. I'm such a wimp! Lol!

And you're welcome.

I have a friend who can't see any shiny surface or anything that reflects. She'll stop to check her reflection and stuff. And then I said to her, "you know, if that mirror could talk, it'd probably tell you that it's sick of seeing your face all the time and stuff." Hence, the idea for this drabble came out.

Mirror is an interesting object. There are sooooooo many things it represents.

I'm a superstitious person. So late at nights, when I'm alone, I'd try not to look at the mirror or I'll cover them with a cloth or something so I don't see my reflection in it. Because I'm scared that a reflection of a ghost will be in it too.

Thank you for the comment on my story!

I have a sudden infatuation with mirrors it seems.

Okay I think it went through now. Thanks for the add! :)

Thank you so much for the warm welcome and help! You're so nice!

Thanks for the comment on Small! I'm so sorry to hear that you can relate. No one should ever feel like that. But I am glad that you enjoyed the writing of it; it's definitely one of my stories that I'm most proud of.

Thank you very much for the warm welcome!

I write anime fanfictions mostly. I've been working on one for several years that I want to finish before I start publishing the chapters online. I should be done by June. But, I'm also working on a vampire romance/action novel that I want to publish as a book, so I won't post it on here.

And yes! I surf and take pictures. I mostly just do school projects and paid work for family and friends now. I don't have the time to really experiment with it on my own.

Wow, that was one of your longer pieces? If you have any chaptered stories, I'd love to read them. There's almost nothing I find as enjoyable as reading someone's writing chapter by chapter as they grow and develop their skills. I can understand why it's hard to do chaptered stories, though... I can never focus on writing for more than about 10 minutes at a time, let alone an entire 50k word book.

Yeah, that sounds nice! I'd definitely love to talk more. I haven't been on Mibba in months and none of my friends previously on here are active, so I'd love to have new mibba buddies. Comment or message me if you ever feel like talking!

You're welcome! I love to help people with their writing. The warning/disclaimer I add with every comment, because people sometimes get very, very offended. I actually caused one girl to start self-harming after a relapse because she thought her writing was worthless. I started adding the warning so I wouldn't feel guilty if something similar happened.

Anyway, I'm glad I helped! I plan on reading some more of your writing and leaving critiques (that probably won't be as detailed haha), but if you ever need any advice on anything you're writing I'd love to help with it. Thanks so much for the friend request!

I think it's normal for siblings to fight a lot. I mean, as long as it's not a major fight. Like... life would be boring if we get along all the time. Sometimes, when things are calm at home, I'd do something just to piss them off. I'm an attention seeker like that. But I know they love me.

I'm not sure if I'm a late bloomer or too weird that no one wants to get close. In 22 years of my life, not even once a boy showed interest in me. Like there's this guy who's also my best friend. He told me once that he used to have a bit of a crush on me but then he admitted he was scared of me so he didn't do anything. And now he's dating my other best friend. Weird. Do I look scary?

Ah... so you don't have any other majors?

The ones you see me use frequently are the ones I'd memorized.

I have my parents, my older sister, and my two younger brothers. I fight with my brothers all the time and my sister likes to pretend like I don't exist. But my brothers are always so protective of me and my sister actually spoils me rotten because she always bought me gifts and food and stuff. I'm the drama queen in the family and probably the most spoilt. How about you?

I don't wanna get married. Or maybe I want to but I don't want to at the same time? Marriage scares me and I'd never really been good at commitments anyway. And besides, so far no one had ever shown interest in me so I shouldn't worry about that.

I guess it's hard to get jobs everywhere especially since this economy affects the whole world you know.

Bible degree? What's that about?

Yep! I used to have to go to the smilies site and copy and paste the code. But now, I'd memorized all my favorite ones.

Why should we do something the hard way when there's an easy way?

Yeah... I don't wanna leave my family forever. I don't wanna get married so I don't have to leave. I'm gonna stay with my parents until I turn 50. My family is the best thing I have.

I'm not sure if I'm lucky or not with my major. It's hard to get jobs these days. My lecturers said it's hard to get into the industry nowadays and I'm really worried about the prospect of future employment you know. What major did you take when you were in uni?

Mibba smilies are awesome!

They are better worker than me. I'm like trying to find the easiest way to everything and they're like, "Lina! But it's supposed to be this way!" And I was like... "but this is easier and we still get the same results!" Yeah...

I do that all the time. And when the break is almost over, I'll crawl (literally crawl) to my mom and be like, "I don't wanna go back there. Please don't send me back there." I'm such a drama queen.

I love staying at my home with my family. But maybe that's because I'm too scared to be living outside alone. I plan on finding a job near home so I don't have to move even when I start working. Ah... good luck with everything! I'm so glad I don't have to take student's loan. So by the time I graduated, I don't have to pay off anything.

I love abusing the smilies on mibba.

We have three people per group. So the workload isn't too overwhelming.

Yes... can't wait for the break though. I want a bit of room to breathe.

Ah... right. So what are you doing now?

I'm kinda indifferent with presentations. I don't hate it but I don't like it either. Just want to get everything over with. The next project is for a programming subject. We need to construct a program that can be applied in medical field. We're thinking of doing a blood glucose level indicator or something. Or maybe heart rate indicator. We're still on planning stage.

My finals will be over around June. Then I'll be free.

I'm sorry. I think you'd told me this before but I forgot. Are you in uni now? And if you are, what is your major? I feel so bad.

I'm doing okay. Actually, it's finished. We just need to make the poster for the presentation. But we still have another project for another subject and this one is harder.

How are you doing?

To put it simply, engineering is like... hurm... the usage of knowledge in science, physics, mathematics and the application of those in real life by using machines and stuff. I'm not sure if I'm explaining it well.

Basically, engineers are people that work with machines or tools to make other people's lives easier. By building/manufacturing/creating/inventing stuff.

I'm bad at explaining stuff. I'm more hands-on.
