Happy birthday!! Hope you have an amazing, MCR-filled year. xx

You're such a busybody, I wish I was like that. It gives more purpose to life. What do you work as?

Second semester is going all right thanks, I'm just sick of the rain & having to dash between lectures to evade it. Orientation helps a lot if you wanted to know, they'll be societies that you can join & it's not necessarily group social situations. Orientation is more about familiarising yourself with the University, you'll never stop making friends along the journey through your degree though. At least that's how it is for me if that's any consolation. =)

:)

I have! And boy, don't worry, I consider myself really lucky because of that. It's so amazing...I couldn't even explain the essence of it. So special. I hope you get to go way more than once. There's no way you could do everything in one visit, believe me.

Ah, I see. That's pretty awesome though. And hey, Disneyland is always great.

Ah, it's all good. I really don't mind delays between replies and whatnot, because I tend to be the worst with getting back to people anyway. Ha, ha.

Ooh, that sucks. I guess technically everybody in the world back in the day lived without sewer systems though, right? Ha. It'd still be a bummer though. Meh.

Hm, that's true. Didn't think about the length of it. But hey, look at the Harry Potter books. Those things got to be pretty huge, and your story is amazing enough to where the publishers would care to keep it together. Though, I've never heard of The Stand. Is it really that similar though? I mean, people say Stephanie Meyer ripped off tons of books with Twilight (don't know what certain books, 'cuz I didn't care enough to get into it, ha), and things like that. There are so many books these days, people will nearly always say someone is ripping off someone else's idea. Hm. Yet, I agree though. I think it'd be nice if you kept this online, plus I respect your opinion, so... :)

But I'm glad you plan on getting things published, because you're honestly great.

Sorry for the late reply, I haven't been on here for ages! XD

That's good though at least you're doing something arty & you'll know what you want to do when you arrive there. That's why planning is so hard. N'aw that's sweet, you should do that because it'll give you good references but you'll have a mentor.

I've been alright thanks just started second semester of uni. No plans for summer, that's too far ahead. I'm just trying to outlive the cold. What about you? How's summer going for you?

How have you been?

It definitely does. :) It's weird though, I get more fill out of helping people emotionally than the way we do on mission trips, y'know? So I don't think I get the complete fill out of it that everyone else does. Ha. That might sound pathetic, but whatever. That's just the way I think I guess, haha. Either way, yeah, it makes me feel good. :)

Mexico?! Epic. Have you ever gone with em'? The only places I've been to are Nashville, New York City, and now some random place in Texas that no one has ever heard of. Ahaha.

Oohh, but cabins are pretty great. I've stayed in one a few times, but it was for this organized church camp. Still great. I love that place, but it's not the same I'm sure. XD

So, I know this is off subject, but I was reading the update, and I started thinking a couple things. (You've probably been asked before.)
Have you ever thought about getting WOR published? And could you ever picture it coming out as a movie? Because, personally, I imagine both of those things to be great, but for you it might be different. Ha.

aw, thankyou :3 x

Ha, I actually did! I was there for a mission trip with my church, so we worked on houses that were still damaged from Hurricane Ike-- that part wasn't so fun, ha, ha. But yeah, it was pretty good. Lots of laughs, which is always the best.

Where'd /you/ go on your last "vacation"? XD

Well hey, that's good to hear. I've been pretty good myself.
I just got back from a really long trip to Texas, so I'm feeling kinda bleecch, but y'know. Good to be home.

HAIIIIIII okay, I thought I would have until the 26th with this computer, but turns out I only have one more night with it. ;_____; So for the next few weeks I'll be without Internet access except for my ipod, which won't suffice that much, obviously. I SHOULD be back by the end of the month tho, because that's when my mom will be getting her other work laptop, and she said that she'll let me use it for mibba and a few other things so I can stay in touch with people until I get my own laptop, I just can't download anything, even iTunes (which I don't even care about).

I'm sorry, I thought I'd be able to have computer access a little while longer, but I don't. .____. so my editing is just on hold for right now until I get to another computer. I'm soooooo sorry. D:

Ah, no worries. Really. Totally understandable.
I was actually /just/ getting to reading your update, so consider us "even". Ha, ha!

What have you been up to, though?

Hey that's fine I completely understand. Well done on graduating. How was your final year? How do you feel finally finishing it? Does it feel surreal? Got much planned for your summer?

I've been alright, what about you?

hi i just wanted to say i loved your story wanderers of ruin it was original and so unlike all the others and sounded like it could actually a book i would pick up and read at a bookstore i hope you continue and finish. i hope you update soon!

HI!!!.........I don't want to sound naggy/annoying, but might you have any time frame of when you may be updating?
'Twould make me exorbitantly happy.

Ah, pretty much the same here. Except, just yesterday was my first "Prom" ever. I, uh, I wore a dress made entirely out of duct tape.

It was eventful. And, sticky. Ha!

We never covered Geology in high school. It's fantastic. Um...no clue occupation wise, there's so many areas you can specialise in it, it just depends on the degree of mathematics you want to study. XD

True, art colleges/academies are better if you're studying those subjects because they have a better reputation. My uncle was a potterer but he then studied education & is a teacher at a private school now. Graphics is very competitive, you could always go into architecture, interior design; it's like graphics; or even urban designing. Those jobs are creative & innovative plus that have a steady paycheque. Just do what you love though, because if you have to work a job for the rest of your life you might as well enjoy it.

Biology is a good academic though, it makes sense & it's very based on diagrams. It's facts, minimal maths & I love it. XD Envy your class spares though, what art are you doing? Studio type of art? I miss art.

Well, my imaginary paintings tend to entail everything, upside down trees, mutant birds, backgrounds with pictures of various gradients. It's hard to explain, right now my computer screen has tendrils extending, a red mauve colour, sticking to the wall with suction cups. On my wall currently I have a sketch of a tree I've been meaning to pain for ages now. XD

Yeah, my imagination is wild. I'm amazed I pay attention in lectures.

Random commeter but I want to say that i love your username...just like the book/movie!

Ah, we really haven't!
I loved the update, by the way.

How've you been?

I'm currently studying an undergraduate bachelor of science. It's fun, particularly Geology, I've never done it before & I absolutely adore it. I'm probably doing to major in that.

N'aw your mother is sweet. Is that because if you went to University you have to move? See my university is just down the road from where I live. I'm lucky like that. XD What would you study at University? I can see you really go into the Art field, designing for others. :/

Ah, I just can't seem to find the time. I get distracted by work & reading that I forget. I paint imaginary paintings on my walls, everywhere in fact. Only I can see them though. I'm glad you got over your block though. =)

ZOMG, UPDATE. O_O
And you took the time to remind me personally! I'm flattered. Thank you.

Sometimes the most underrated things are the best things in life. =)

Uni's is fine, I love the fact that it's independent working. I work better based off my own initiative rather than having a teacher breath down my neck & tell me everything I have to do. The atmosphere as well is a lot better than high school & I enjoy my subjects.

Ah, I've gone through those. It's been eons since I was artistically creative. Are you are college/uni now?
