Hey, no problem. Take your time. I did XD

hehe preaching to the choir, kid, preaching to the choir. xD I have a problem with laziness. And business.

aww :) Well I'm so glad that I could make your night a little bit better :) And MCR is the bomb :) Thanks!! Will you be updating soon? By the way, the title is really amazing :D

Thanks for the story comment. :

<3 Thank you for your story comment love. (; I have lights too. They make me feel cool. XD ♥♥♥

(Uber late reply)

Ugh, I know. I took the PSATs this year, and (stupid, stupid me) I checked the little, 'Sure colleges can send me emails!' and now that's all they do. I feel like they're shoving it down my throat. And they all send a link that's something like, Use Your Personality to Discover Your Major. I got bored and took one and it told me I was creative. Like, fuck, I knew that! I'm on three creative writing sites. Lmao.

The sad thing, it's actually been dragging on for so long and it's so disruptive having these problems, I'll be glad if I go into surgery. It means it might actually get fixed! I have a sad life XD

Germany's different everyday. Berlin was FUCKING INCREDIBLE. Not just the city, but meeting so many new people on the exchange as well as seeing people from home. There was always something going on. That and a girl in my room, who was hilarious anyway, accidentally turned her thermos into a bomb XD Not a real one, but she put fresh coke into it and then put the lid on. Couldn't open it for days and when she finally googled what to do, the only advice was DO NOT TOUCH IT. Haha XD Finally chucked it out the window but yeah, that was just a tiny thing that happened, haha.

Yeah, villains are the best. It's why I really love anti-hero stories. Where the 'bad guy' is actually 'the good guy'.

Ah, I see. I totally understand! Like when they were advertising Portia de Rossi's (or however her name is spelt) show Better Off Ted, they introduced her as "Ellen's funny wife". It's bullshit. If Catherine Zeta Jones is in a movie, they don't introduce her as Michael Douglas' wife. That is such a double standard.

Aw, I'm glad you like them too :)
Your role-play sounds very interesting...haha. Me and my best mate used to role-play all the time. For a few years I think. God, some of those conversations are hilarious/embarrassing/should never see the light of day, but yeah. I understand :) You get attached to your characters. What's weird is that this girl I know in Germany, and I just realised this today, looks exactly how I picture Sara in my head. Freaked me out a bit. At least she spoke German :/

Your bucket list is cute...kiss a British guy. Awwww.
Top of mine would have to be, at the moment, learn Russian. I love languages and with Russian, there's so much literature that I want to read, but wouldn't want to butcher it by reading it in English. I think far too much gets lost in translation. Especially with Russian.

My favourite ice cream after trying it in Hamburg is apple gelato. Oh my god. It was like an orgasm of flavour in my mouth.

Favourite new artists: Woe, Is Me, I See Stars, Eyes Set to Kill, and Falling in Reverse. There's probably a lot more but those are the ones I can remember off the top of my head :P
Skrillex makes me laugh. Not his music, just the fact that he used to be the vocalist in From First to Last and now he's super successful. If you know From First to Last, you'll understand ;)
Rise Against are great. Fucking perfect writing/angsting music. I have much love for them <3

Oh my god I hope that sex scene wasn't too full on for you! It was full on for me writing it -.- there's like 2000 words in that chapter devoted to it. No joke. I feel so dirty.

Yeah, don't worry, I've read Looking for Alaska. It was about five years ago though, so I've forgotten a lot about what happened in it XD

For Christmas...oh! I got a weekly calendar of Germany with pictures every week from around the country. It's so gorgeous <3

Favourite word is hands down, Fabio. Turns out that Flounder in the little mermaid, in German, is called Fabio. I think that's just great.

Best thing I've done in the past month was definitely going to Berlin ;)
No, I didn't dye my hair blue :'( But that's okay. I'm hair modelling for a friend of mine this year for colours so IT WILL HAPPEN :D

And the ending of your story was amazing by the way. Don't be sad. And I think when I commented I told you not to do a sequel because you don't need one. And it's true. You don't. Like if there's another aspect you wanna go for, like me how I wanted to get really in depth with Tommy's character because it was such a loose end, do it but you'll feel better if you start something fresh :)

Hey, school's only gonna get harder. I'm the equivalent of a senior this year, so yeah :P I can say that. There's something for you to look forward to XD Haha, I'm awful.

AHA If I knew you personally, you'd be mah best friend ^.^

Aha I have a worse situation tho cuz like he knows I like him and he knows she likes him....plus she's like frikin besties with him and I barely talk to him cuz I'm shy....we talk on fb sometimes but hes rarely on :/ My love life situation sux -.-

Haha, right?! Yup... My guidance counselor called me down to talk about college yesterday and when he asked what I wanted to go to college for, I answered, "Music Production," and he looked at me like, "You're better off not going to college." Lmao. I hate everyone shoving it down my throat.

Nice resolution! Might be mine, too. I'm in the same age boat, so maybe it's a phase? Hmmm.. Nah. I know right?! I'm like hmm. Maybe if I tweet Paramore enough, they'll hire me as their drummer... But that's pretty much how I got my band, aha. Annoying until accepted. AUA, haha. I just improv-ed that... Totally proud.

OH MY GOD I’M FINALLY REPLYING TO YOUR COMMENT SO WE CAN TALK NORMALLY AND MORE REGUARLY AGAIN!!! That deserved caps lock and you know it.

I firstly wanna say, and I know you can tell from my comments anyway, but I fucking love your story so much and it's been such an amazing ride and I'm really proud of you <3 I'm so sad and yet glad it's over. My nerves can rest! Do you have plans for your next story? Maybe? You should.

Now to refresh your memory, I asked you, and you in turn asked me, favourite beverage? If you could be in any movie, which would it be and who would you be? And a view on a controversial topic.

Favourite beverage is actually water or high concentrate orange juice. I'm no longer big on fizzy drinks because they upset my stomach. I have reflux and it's becomes really uncomfortable. Think I might be going into surgery when I get home or something.

Movie. Um, I've love to be Tyler Durden in Fight Club, it's a book too but I adore the movie. But Tallahassee in Zombieland would be kickass. Also Hannibal Lector. Because that man, okay he's a cannibal and a serial killer and neither of these two things are legal, is a genius.

That's interesting you chose being gay as a controversial topic. Actually wasn't expecting that at all XD But I agree with you, to an extent. Ten per cent of the world's population are supposed to be gay (not sure if full on gay or if this is the full embodiment of 'queer') but it is emerging every where in mainstream pop culture. To be honest, it actually HAS to be made a big deal of for it to actually become fully accepted. You're one of the people who accept that there are gay people and they are PEOPLE and they are no different to...whatever the 'norm' is nowadays, so don't see why it has to be drilled that being gay is a drama when in reality it sometimes (not sure which frequency I should use, this is such an iffy topic but I think you know what I mean) isn't. And that's because those who don't accept homosexuals need to acclimatise to the full on drama of what it can be? So although it's annoying an unrealistic, it's actually a good thing. Once homosexuals are accepted as proper human beings, it'll make it easier to change laws, as well as open the door for more acceptance for trans people :) I really hate the in your face thing because I have friends who are gay and are the total opposite but yeah. I don't like the 'fad' aspect of it either. That's bullshit. Hopefully it actually becomes normal on TV and isn't just a fad. Society tends to start reflecting television after long enough. Hopefully I actually made sense here?

My view on a political issue: I know this is so over-played with the war but I've picked the piece I feel to be more of a pet peeve of mine. Okay I understand the support the troops thing whether you're for or against the world totally. My own country has troops over in the middle east and I hope they aren't harmed at all. But DO NOT say "support them because they're protecting your rights". What the fuck? Protecting your rights? What is that? You're half way around the world protecting your country's rights? How does that even work? I think it's the dumbest thing you could say. One, what the statement is trying to say isn't true, and two, it's not possible.

Last thing I bought at the mall? Um...the last MALL I went to was in Hamburg and I believe I bought two pairs of jeans and a singlet top :)

My favourite character I've ever created and why? That's actually really tough but it's either Tommy or Winter. Tommy because I've been with him so long and I feel I've achieved my purpose with the sequel to fully explore his character. Winter because she was an accomplishment. She gave me such headaches to write. That last chapter was so full on to write, you have no idea. When you're in that state of mind for hours, pulling out is really difficult, it's a bit scary and it takes a while. I'm proud that she turned out how I wanted.

Okay, same questions as well as if you have/were to have a bucket list, what would be your top item and why? Favourite ice cream? And favourite new artist/s you've discovered in the past six months?

Oh and I should have a new chapter up of my story tomorrow. It's actually only half of the chapter I've been working on for the past few months (god that sounds awful) but I figure if it's too long, which it is at the moment, it'll be difficult to read and also it means I can update as soon as I get back from Berlin. That and so no waiting for me to write an awkward sex scene. I know you don't like them but I think it'll be obvious when it's starting so you can just flick to the comment section ;) And I'll put a warning on the summary page. But yeah. TOMORROW!

That's fantastic! I love that plot! I do the same thing, aha. (Kind of.) I announce loudly that I'm a drummer in hopes of some somewhat successful band in town being like, "Our drummer just left, you'll be perfect!" Self advertising, man. XD Pssh, college. That's so 2011.

Haha! I wish I could take credit for it, but my friend came up with that one. Glad it got your attention, though. (: Thanks for commenting!

That would be so much friggin' fun, haha. Could you imagine hearing all the new movie stuff?! Ooooh. New goal in life. (Oh, and happy belated birthday. I think you mentioned that in the journal, ha.)

Really late reply to a journal that I wrote... in like, October. Haha.

I pretty much just wanna join a band, too, and avoid college. Ugh, College :S

and the poem comment :)

thanks for the photo comment :)

right? haha i wrote a poem about it, check it out? its called Consequence. like, it pisses me off that people judge when really there's no point cause its not like they're perfect anyways. good to know there's people out there that feel the same :)

Hey, thanx for the comment on my poem :)
