    I applied for a job I would have been excellent at (music theatre camp director), and I was rejected. The woman who interviewed me said I was a close second...that didn't exactly make me feel any better. Hopefully the summer reading camp thing will pull through. Happy endings are just so...BLAH! I like drama, and apparently pissing people off.

    I completely understand! I've been really busy too. With moving back to my parents, trying desperately to find a job and being rejected for each one, and trying to get stuff for school ready. I've barely had time to do much writing! I think Josline is starting to get pissed off with me because I haven't been paying much attention to her! Lol. And you have to remember, my writing has rarely been known for happy endings. :P

    I hope so too! The counsellor that I used to see said that I would be very good, because I've experienced a lot in my life, and I can sympathise quite easily. And I was talking to my mom the other day; if I finish the SSW program, my brother, sister and myself will be the only ones in my family (cousins and uncles included) to have graduated from college. I thought that was pretty cool.
    I wasn't even aware there was a draft section! :O The things I learn! I have three rubbermaid containers, and about twenty boxes sitting in my dorm right now. I'm moving on May 1st, and I'm pretty much done packing, except for things I'll need for the next week. That must be strange, moving back in with your parents. I'm moving back in with mine, and the only reason for that is someone would die if I lived with my brother.

    I was originally going in for an English degree so that I could teach. Then, one day, I just had an epiphany; I really want to be a child and youth counsellor. I have to take SSW for a year before I can switch into CYC, but I think I'm going to enjoy it. And everyone says that I'd be a good counsellor because I'm non-judgemental and I'm very compassionate. Although, 90% of the time I'm an ass hole, so I don't really know what I'm getting myself in to. :P
    I ALWAYS write in a word document. I don't even write on paper any more because I lose those too. And moving can be a creativity ruin-er for sure. I'm moving at the end of the month, so all my decorations are down now, except for one poster. I stare at my screen for about 10 minutes and say fuck it most of the time.

    You sob story is acceptable. I understand. I was really sad about the server crash too. Luckily I only had to replace 3 chapters, and I have my stories backed up in word documents, so I was safe. :P
    I ALWAYS have tricks up my sleeve! You should know this by now.
    Well, Zack is going to be a homeless bum with his Philosophy degree. I have many options with Social Service Worker though. ;P

    Well, if I were you, I would have backhanded him. I keep in contact with one ex, because he's the only one I like and because he was my best friends brother (my friend passed away in 2010). Other than that, it's a lot easier than trying to be friends with them.

    Yeah, baddies seem more like the one night stand kind of guys anyways.
    Oh jesus. I would have hated to of been in that situation. Yeah, free drinks are awesome, but other than that. No thank you.

    I still like the baddies sometimes, though. But still, I have a thing for the artsy types. So Will is pretty much perfect. lol
    I don't normally talk to my exes, unless I'm forced to or something like that, so I've never had any one of them do it. I did have one try to hook me up with a guy I liked about 8 months after we had broken up though. That was awkward.

    I would LOVE to go on that date. Why do I always write characters that I would love to date, though? I have a thing for artsy types.
    Yeah, and Rosin hasn't had a date in two years? Honestly, if I had an ex tell me off for going on a date with someone, I'd tell them they could stuff it. Granted, I've never been on a date, so... lol.

    I'm glad you like Will. I was kind of worried about what would happen if Rose and him started dating. I didn't want people to be all like, "Rosin and Matt are supposed to be together blah blah blah!!". I'm not really sure how I'm going to get Matt to react yet.
    And I got the idea for the date from one of my friends. He took his girlfriend on their first date there, and that was almost 3 years ago. It seemed to work. :P

    You should be.

    Except, don't be, because I want you to keep reading.

    I think that's why I like her. A lot of my characters are very shy and introverted. Excluding Airin, because he's just nuts. I also don't know how she's going to redeem herself just yet, but, I promise it will be awesome.

    I actually like Taryn. Yeah, I've portrayed her as a bitch, but I think she's my favourite character I've written.

    I don't like doing things the simple way. It's more fun to watch people suffer.

    It's like you know me so well. :P But you should also know by now that I have a few tricks up my sleeve.

    I feel the same way about Taryn. I mean, I know how she's going to come into play, but still, she has a point. But if I were Rosin, I would of said the exact same thing to her.

    I really think that's how Matt would be in real life. He just seems like that kind of guy, albeit awkward.

    See, I had one scenario where Matt was pretty much pissed off beyond all control, but that just didn't seem right. I wanted something that seemed natural and true to Matt's character. He doesn't seem like the kind of person to be in-your-face mad.
