I don't know whether it's just on my computer, but I keep sending a message to you and it comes up blank. So I'll just paste it here, and then you can always reply back in the message or maybe I'll send it again later. But it's your birthday, so I can't just leave it. :3

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! It's the 25th there, isn't it? I think we're a day later. :3 How was your day? I hope you had a wonderful time! <3

Sorry for the late reply. I found out I have to go back into hospital after my birthday, which sucks. But fortunately Dad's going to try to give me an internet stick, so I'll hopefully be able to reply and send messages still. (':

That's the way it works. I'll go through stages where I think I'll never write again, and then inspiration will hit me when I'm out somewhere random and I'll know that I can't give it up. xD

Aw, that's so sweet. She's going to be so stoked that you're doing that for her. It's wonderful. I'm sure she'll love it and it will mean the world to her. :3
Thank you! Ah, it took me so long to get out because it's so hard to write. Aw, thank you! I've lost a lot of confidence in my writing, so it's nice to hear that. (':

That's really true. I'll definitely keep trying. And even if it's not coming out now, hopefully it will eventually!

It really is scary. I'm not that good socially, so it's a real challenge. But hopefully as time goes on I'll build up the confidence or maybe someone will try to talk to me. This is all wishful thinking though, haha. But thanks for having faith!

Ah, I know. Australia's very weird in a lot of ways. xD
Hahaha, that's okay. It is a good thing! Hopefully I picked the right timing with your birthday message, because I wasn't on Mibba yesterday but I did contemplate trying to send one on my phone. (:

I love that movie too! When I was down with my cousins they watched it constantly, and they'd just sit there quoting it the whole time. It was so cute. :3

Thanks :)
Are you competing in NaNoWriMo this year?

Hey, do you think that you could give my story a read? It's Avenged Sevenfold, with Jimmy as the leading character :) I'd love it if you could give me some feedback!
Thank you very much in advance, if you decide to give it a shot :)

WOW.
Picturing. I have no idea where tripping came from. -_-'

Yeah, he's bald. There's a little bit on the sides, but yeah... He would look sooo weird with hair. Wow.

I'm having a difficult time tripping your dad, haha.

You practice on your parents? Haha, that's funny. Mostly because I'm picturing my parents with cornrows. Well my mom. My dad has no hair. :D

Don't hate it. It gives you something to do everyday, haha.

I've tried to do that before because I can french braid. Nope. Can't do it. I don't have the skillz. >.>

They'll rip your face off. :D

Whoa, three of them? You win.

Oh, haha, see that's what I thought but I wanted to make sure. That's hair, nails, and all of that good stuff, right? Or are you just focusing on one of those?

They do in Harry Potter. ._.
Those books will attack you.

No kidding. I have two tests this week that I spent all weekend studying for. -_-'

A cosmo class? What's that? o.O

Books really are my only friends. D: Haha, nah, I'm kidding. I do prefer books over actual people sometimes when I see how they act. Books don't have mouths.

I'M ALIVVVEEE!

I've just been a bit of a ghost. Sorry, haha. :D

Well summer is OVER. Get pumped for school. Get pumped. o.o Because you're going to be there for months and months and months.

And with books, I love seeing how many pages I've read. The thickness of it. It makes me feel all god-like. You know, "I just read 100 pages, no big deal or anything, I'm just AWESOME!" Like that. :D

But of course. I could never forget Mibba. Mibba is what helped me improve so much. ^-^

Nah, I understand. I've been having a series of days and then a week straight where I don't really do anything on Mibba except say that I'm working on updates, which I can't say that I am too dedicated to at the moment. :/ School is a time sucker.

Let me know if you decide to post it. :D I wanna read it.

I like getting long chapters from authors every now and then but when I have to keep scrolling for almost a half an hour, I just can't do it. Reading off of a screen for that long is too tiring on my eyes. I like reading chapters in one sitting when it comes to Mibba. That seems to be the appropriate length on here. Nothing too overwhelming but enough to satisfy.

THAT WOULD BE AWESOME. O.O I can't even begin to explain how amazing it would feel to know that people actually bought a book that I wrote, even if I somehow managed to get an agent and get it professionally published one day (that I doubt). It would just be awesome.

Yeah, Dujo should fix that. It's a major pain. I don't like retyping what I just wrote, and even then, it's never the same as it was the first time. It's worse because I don't want to type it out again. :| That's why when I'm writing longer comments, I ctrl+a and ctrl+c it so if I happen to close the window by mistake, I can just paste most of it back. I forget to do that sometimes though.

Oh definitely. Most of the stuff I research for are pretty interesting topics, and it makes me feel loads smarter. ^-^ That sounds so cool. I would love to finally read a vampire story that isn't cliche or about these blood-sucking creatures that really aren't that bad. Vampires are supposed to be scary! Man, I should add that to the list of stories I will someday write: a non-lame vampire story that's unpredictable and realistic even if it IS about vampires. I hope you do well with that story and the research.

Novels have so much more detail and you have a lot more room to add details and conversations because the chapters are longer. I find myself shortening what I write and holding back when I post on Mibba because then the chapters would get too long.

I've heard of lulu. I actually have an account on there because I was going to publish something, but I got distracted and forgot. Aw, haha, thank you. I now know one person that would buy something that I wrote. :D

-_________________________________-
I just lost my entire comment. UGH!

I love history too. Depending on the topic I could probably write something with a lot of history but it would require so much research. I do a lot of research for the majority of my stories as it is. Like [i]My Symphony[/i], I had to do a lot of reading up on blindness. You want to make sure that your facts all line up so you don't want to screw anything up and when it comes to historical stories, it's more likely to happen. It'd probably be a really good story but I'm pretty lazy and I have school to suck me dry with research.

Hmm, science-y. I could probably get into that. Depends what you mean by science-y though, haha.

That's great! :D That's something that most people don't realize on Mibba. The chapters generally aren't long enough to be in an actual book. My chapters are usually somewhere between 4-6 pages long and even then it would require a lot more detail. I think I need to improve more to actually be considered for publishing but it's my incapability to stop myself from writing that makes me think I could write a story with chapters reaching the appropriate length for a real book. Plus, the height and the width of the page would help a lot too. Books come in a lot of different sizes. How big is the book going to be anyways?

Just because we love doing something doesn't mean that we want to spend all day doing it. That'd be tiring. D: Oh storms. I love writing during storms. The atmosphere feels so cool. It's perfect for writing. Forget sunny days with birds chirping. Heavy rain and lightening are my writing days.

Please do. I'm a grammar freak. >.>

Oh yeah, same here. I usually assume what I can't write instead of trying it out first and THEN making a conclusion from it though. I'll probably never write something with a lot of history involved. I just don't think I can do it. I'd rather not even try, haha.

Ah yes, the infamous novel that I keep hearing about. I hope that's going well. :D

I've never written a fanfiction before. I've just never really been into them. I like the idea of making my own characters. c: Typically, I don't sit down and write for hours and hours just pumping out these amazing chapters. I write in pieces more than half the time and then add a little to it each day or maybe every so and so days. I LOVE the days where I just write and write and its just like, YEAH, GO ME~ \o/

I still question some of the sentences I have in chapter one. Certain ones, I seriously stared at for minutes upon minutes re-reading and trying to figure out if the tense was right. I'm sure that I have some errors, but the majority of it looks alright so, meh. :D

You kind of get in the rhythm of it after a while. It's probably a good idea to try out different tenses, the number of point of views and then first person or third person, you know?

It's crazy how much your writing can improve and change in such a short amount of time, isn't it? My writing style is sooo different from when I wrote [i]My Symphony[/i]. It's constantly changing. I love and hate that because when you're on like chapter twenty something of a story and then you go back to chapter two or three, it's just like, what the heck, and you HAVE to fix it. It's so annoying. >.<

Yes, you're supposed to be confused, haha. I'm trying to write it as it's happening. Kind of hard. This is probably the first time I have ever written in present tense. Do you have any idea how hard it is to switch to present when you've always written in past? I find myself reverting back to past sometimes. It just, GUR! >.<

Oh you are right about that. It took me such a long time to get this chapter done. I was doing my best to imagine what I would be thinking or feeling. It's not perfect, but it went pretty well. Thank you. :D

It's weird. Fantasy is my absolute favorite genre and I've never actually written a full-blown fantasy before. I hope you enjoy the first beyond chapter one.

Thanks for the lovely comment. <3

I don't know how late you're on or anything so yeah.
I wanted to talk more and chilll but I ran around our streets putting out fliers to try and earn some more money then dinner- where we got the call that our little cousin born a few weeks ago has pnuemonia, so I've come to my grandma's to watch the other kids. [the youngest won't go to beeeeed] and I can't get my computer hooked to the internet. but yeah.
might be back about 9pmish tomorrow. hope your writing plans came together!

It's in the beginning of the year though and for some reason, it REALLY ticks the gym teachers off when you don't change and participate. Who knew? :D
