Hiatus No More! Comment swap, anyone?

Hello!I've haven't been on this website in a very, very long time. Long enough to think that my account had already de-activated. So when I decided to check up on everything, lo and behold, my account was still here which prompted me to start writing again.I have one new story up called, The Foretelling. It's my first attempt at science fiction. I've gotten a couple of nice comments already but I...

My First "Mibbaversary"

Exactly one year from today, I stumbled upon this website and decided to join. 10 completed stories, 1 story in the works, 1 poem, and 20 journal entries later, here I am. I'm still not that social, though. I want to make friends but I'm not exactly outgoing and that . . . could cause a problem with my wish to meet people haha.So, you know, don't be like me. Send me a postcard, drop me a line,...

I'm Taking Down "Much of a Muchness"

Most of you will not know about me or the story I'm talking about but I just wanted to post this and hope that the people who did subscribe to it will see it.I underestimated the plotline of my story and came to the conclusion that I will return to the story once my writing skills have improved. Also, I know that I haven't been giving the story enough justice and I am going to stop myself before I...

Finally, Finally, Finally Done!

I (finally) finished writing the longest story I have here on Mibba. 39 chapters long. 39. It may not seem like a lot to others who have been on here longer than I have but I started August of last year so this story was a big deal to me. Plus, I wrote it for a contest in the forums . . . and it was 10 days late. *facepalm*. But even if it won't be accepted into the contest, I'll still be happy...

Wiggle Your Big Toe . . . And Comment Swap With Me

Yes. That's right. I watched Kill Bill for the first time. Then the next day, I watched Kill Bill vol. 2. And now, I love Tarantino's films even more. I like how he pairs violence with creativity so as to make it so that the violence isn't mindless . . . which I admire.Anywho.So I wrote a one-shot. I know.Whoop-di-freakin-doo Surprising, right? [/sarcasm]It's called Good to See You Again. I wrote...

Garth, Marriage Is Punishment For Shoplifting In Some Countries.

Ex-squeeze me?In Another Unrelated TopicSo I was trying to look for it in the forums, but I will admit, I got a little lazy. So I'm going to ask it here.Does anyone know if there is a place in the Forums, such as in the Chat - General section, where you can be a pen-pal to somebody? As in, if I wanted to write to or exchange emails or even exchange personal messages on Mibba with someone in...

Dolores, You Put Down That Cheesecake!

Listen, if you've ever read my journals before, why do you kid yourself into thinking that the title has anything to do with content of my journal? Quite silly of you, if you ask me.Dear Female Teenage Mibbians,Let's say you're going to the prom. (If you don't know what a "prom" is, it's a social gathering of young acne-faced humans in eccentric clothing where we are supposed to have the "best...

My Stories Bring All The Mibbians to the Yard and They're Like, You Wanna Comment Swap?

Damn right, I wanna comment swap.So I have finally, finally, finally finished my story Perfection and I'm actually happy with my work for a change. Usually, I'm always worrying that I should have ended things a different way or so-and-so shouldn't have died / disappeared. Or that they shouldn't gotten eaten by that lion / tiger / bear. (Oh My!)So I haven't participated in a comment swap before so...

You're Looking At A Published Artist

*graciously nods head and welcomes guests*Writing the title of this journal just made me... really happy.Here's the thing:My school has this magazine and every student in the school has the opportunity to submit art work, (as in paintings, sketches... 2-D art,) photography, poems, and short stories. The best in each category, (listed above,) will receive a prize of moneyas well as bragging rights....

I Am Sixteen Going On Seventeen

But I don't date Nazis. Just saying. (*ahem* Rolf.)No, I did not watch the movie recently. Of course not...Anyway.So in exactly one week I will be seventeen.Whoop-di-freakin-doo.That means, singing the song "Sixteen Going On Seventeen" will make me a fraud. I'm not sure how I'll be able to handle that. It. . . kinda makes me sad. I haven't heard happy, catchy songs for seventeen-year-olds....

Sorry, John, But, As It Turns Out, I'm The Walrus

Not you, my dear.ANYWAY.Four day weekends are absolutely lovely. I suppose turning your jammies inside out really does help with snow or, in my case, icy roads.Let me give you a breakdown of my weekend.Friday - school. Nothing happened except a half-awkward moment between myself and this guy I am head over heels for.Saturday - went to see Rain which is a Beatles tribute band on Broadway. It was...

Let's Talk About Religion

Haha, no. Let's not.Just this: you gotta do what you gotta do. If you believe am Monkey from outer space controls our thoughts then, well, that's very nice. Good for you. I won't thump you on the head with my Bible. Nor would I if you didn't believe in anything.Anywho.You know what's awesome? Not going to school. Want to know the reason? Today, (Wednesday, December 8, 2010,) was the Feast of the...

Persnickety People, Exceptional Cheese

That's how Sargento rolls, baby.In other news.You know when people put links in their signatures? Well, when I do it it looks like this: http://www.mibba.com/users/journals/journals-manage/. (Just pretend it's blue for argument's sake, capice?)However.I've seen links that bring me to worlds galore that only have one word in it. One. (Or two.) Such as an example I made up on the spot and have not...

How To Soothe A Seventy Pound Yellow Lab

My seventy pound, ten year old yellow Lab is more afraid of a noise than my Yorkshire terrier is.Go figure.The Yorkie, Maggie, has been sleeping soundly and/or relaxing. My cairn, Rosie, (yes, I own three dogs,) has been sleeping the whole time.But big old Sam has been shaking ever since the noise started. Now, I'm not heartless. I really do feel bad for her since, well, she's a scaredy cat....

Stephen King Would Love To Write About This

Not even kidding.Let me just start out with the beginning of this event.So, as you may or may have noticed, it's Autumn. And here, it's getting colder which is a truly great thing. As a result, you may think that the bees are gone, right? That they're either dead or doing whatever bees like to do in the winter time, yes?No.Three days ago, I found a dead bee just lying on the floor at the bottom of...

Shh! The Fire Can Hear You!

That's why we can't talk during a fire drill.Thanks for clearing that up, Facebook. I was always puzzled myself. Everything makes sense now.-----------------Have any of you heard of the I <3 Boobies bracelettes? I'll bet my own that you have. They're comical, eye-catching, and harmless. And, if you buy these bracelettes, you are donating money to breast cancer research.I think that's nice.. ....

I Wonder If Jesus Asks Himself, "What Would I Do?"

That guy (should "guy" be capitalized?) has one ego.. . . . If you're thinking I'm a Jesus-hater, STOP. (Hammer time.) I'm the opposite.I'mhis His number one fan.In other ramblings. . .I am somewhat distraught that I must be subjected to outsiders' prejudices against myself and the people of my glorious homeland : New Jersey.

How'd I Pull That 100% Out Of My Buttocks?

I honestly thought I failed this test I took not too long ago. My studying habits? : Glancing at chapter homework right before the test is handed out.What shall I speak-eth about today?Ah. Right. One-shots.I like writing one-shots now. It's very easy. You don't need to develop a complicated story if you don't want to. Plus, they're like nice writing exercises for when you create a really elaborate...

Pepto Bismol : The Miracle Drug

Long story short, I had a stomach ache.But this is what I would like to address today : fellow juniors and sophmores who have taken the PSAT/NMSQT recently . . . do not fret. I've seen many a classmate um. . . well, for lack of a better word, "freak out" over the test. My deary dears, the PSAT is meant to get you ready for the SAT. Yes, if you're a junior, it counts. The PSAT counts to getting a...

Can Finally Sleep Because. . .

I stayed up late tonight. Why? I wanted to see the Chilean miners rescued. I had to promise I go to sleep after they rescued the first one, though. So at 11:10 or around that time, the first miner was brought up to the surface. I had chills. Mega-chills, in fact. I thought to myself: Finally. A happy story on the news, for a change.I literally cried because the guy's young son started crying for...
