Come in, make yourself at home, 'cause you won't be leaving soon.

Listening To: Labyrinth by Haste The Day
Feeling: Hungry

"...We are unfortunately ever so self-destructive
We live inside this labyrinth
Waiting to go home
Labyrinth oh labyrinth
Your worst is what we'd might expect from you
And in your twisted walls you sing out of tune
"Come in"
Labyrinth oh labyrinth
Your most is what we'd not expect from you
And in your tired walls you sing out of tune
"Come in, make yourself at home"
'Cause you wont be leaving soon.
All your friends are dead and gone
And you've got nothing to lose"..."

Ah, yes, I'm doing that meme. Even though I'm not on DA. And, also, even if I don't know about the characters (Since I have no contact with the people who made them, I probably won't know anything about them unless they have a bio up).

-Rules-
1. Post links to your 5 favorite characters on dA that don't belong to you and tell why.
2. Tag 5 people to do this once you're done

1. *powerdraguun's Carmise
I mean, seriously. LOOK. LOOK. She's not only amazingly pretty, but the little I've been able to RP with Flash (A.K.A., powerdraguun) with Carmise and my character Gore, it's been darn epic.

2. *ninaogfnuk's Rasputin

From what I read of his bio, he seems like a good character. Plus, he has the silver-gray hair like Ric, which makes me think of Ric. ;D From the other DA pics, Rasputin seems like a lovable goofball, too.

3. *homeobox's Sven

Yyyyeeeaaaahhh...I don't know anything about this guy, but he looks really cool. o3o; I couldn't find a bio anywhere for him, so I can't really say if I like his personality. xD I think the only vague thing I got from it is that he's messed up.

4. *HeitchBee's Gertrude

Yyyeeeaaahhh, basically, I just like loupdrakes ever since Flash showed them to me. So there.

5. *MiniMushroom's Evan

Yyyyeeeeaaahhh. I don't know anything about him, or if he's gay, or whatever, so don't even ask. I just really like all the accessories. And he's pleasing to the eye. ;D

-I tag anyone who wants to do it, because I hate tagging people unless they're Flash.

Maybe I should hate you for this; if only you knew half as much as you pretend to.

Listening To: You're So Last Summer by Taking Back Sunday
Feeling: Er..back pain or something.

"..Never really did ever quite get that
Cause I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions
This'll be last chance you get to drop my name
Cause I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions
This'll be last chance you get to drop my name
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar..."

Aha, you see. I couldn't think of much to blog about lately, but whether this turns into a boring blog or not, I'm posting it. I don't want to fall out of the loop of posting like I've done so many times. I'm trying to be committed to something, even though - in most cases - I'm not much committed to anything. I have to really love the person/hobby/thing/band/etc. to stay committed to it.

AND THIS, my friends, is why I would make a terrible mother.

But, anyways, me and Flash are doing another art trade (The last one was me drawing her characters Adam and Froze together while she drew my characters Mercedes and Gore together); me drawing her character Lamb (See Flash's picture of Lamb HERE) and she drawing my character Sinclair. And so, I worked extremely hard and even had to color the faily thing, but its finished, after quite a number of hours working on it.

SHAZAM. I probably messed up more than a few things, but at least I worked hard on this one. As well, part of it is blurry because my scanner was being faily and ever though I re-scanned it, it looked even worse, so I just went with this version. I'm not sure how to crop it, either, so that might pose a problem. Ah, well. ;c I still think it's pretty okay.

Listening To: This Too Shall Pass by OK Go

"...You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down
And you can't keep draggin' that dead weight around
If there ain't all that much to lug around
Better run like hell when you hit the ground
When the morning comes
When the morning comes..."

Well, did I mention that watered-down Diet Coke is possibly the worst-tasting drink ever? Yes, I took a sip of it and then I forgot that I had left it out earlier and now my mouth tastes like I just puked sparkles. Which, is actually, not such a good taste as you would imagine.

I'm also thinking of doing a meme where you pick - five, I think? - of other peoples' original characters off of DeviantArt. Of course, I saw this meme on DeviantArt. I don't have an account, and if I did I would probably be laughed off because of the quality of my art and my inability to apparently size and crop photos. Still, I think it's okay for me to do the quiz, and if I do it hopefully Flash will, too.

I'd also like to take a moment here to thank my new Followers here on my blog and if anyone who Follows me on Twitter reads my blog as well, thanks. I'm pretty sure I love you guys. Now, come here so we can have an incredibly awkward hug.

I need to be working on a lot of things right now. Like, that rad art project I said I was going to start? No. Quite frankly, it still hasn't happened. I haven't even done a vague outline or rough sketch of it. It's like I'm terrified to even start such a huge work of art. Still, I promised myself I was going to do it, and I will, eventually. For now, I'll just doodle in my sketchbook and make up new characters (Julius Manry and Alice *insert last name here*). So, yes. I should be doing something else right now.

It seems I'm always supposed to be doing something else.

'Cause there's a hole in the fabric of my sanity and it's getting big enough to see through.

Listening To: I Think I'm Going To See You by Showbread
Feeling: A collective feeling of "ugh."

"...Because the more the world puts in my mouth
The less I feel like chewing it
I found the way to madness and I'm opening the door
Cause the more they say what's on my mind
The more I feel I'm losing it
They tell me what to care about and I don't care anymore..."

Crap. Today is pretty high on the Suck-O-Meter. As in, Sucks-A-Lot. My stomach is hurting like crazy for absolutely no reason at all, and last night my legs and stomach were hurting. Is it just me or am I getting a lot of aches and pains lately? This just cannot be good for my health. xD Grawr, I don't even feel like eating anything for lunch at all. :/ Maybe I'll just have dinner or something because my goodness does this hurt like you wouldn't believe.

Thus, the only thing that's making this day awesome is the Internet and Flash. Flash makes all days awesome, though, so really, that's nothing new. I'm also watching a semi-good Ouran abridged thing on YouTube. What with the clever "Even before I was born I was the most beautiful and charming of embryos" and "Ouch, right in the teacups!" lines, this is the thing keeping me watching it. Still, under no circumstances is it as well done as Yu-Gi-Oh! Abridged. Not that I'm dissing it. Or the person who made it. I really don't use this blog to diss a lot.

Except that mini-rant I think I had one time where I was talking about how much I detest adults who try to act like they're sixteen again when they're obviously not. Honestly, I dislike these people with every fiber of my being. I just hope that I never turn into one of them. because once you're old, you're old. You aren't sixteen anymore, sweetie.

Argh. I'm getting my hair done soon, which is good, because my roots are so clearly noticeable that when you turn to look at me they literally slap you in your face before you can say anything. At least, this is how I see it. Still holding on and not getting it cut, though, so I'll end up having a semi-long mane by sometime in the summer. I haven't had long hair since I was a wee tot and something happened and we had to chop it all off. I was very upset that day, but then I liked shorter hair more. And it seems to me that a snapton of people have longer hair rather than shorter hair, which makes me feel like I'm jumping onto some sort of bandwagon.

Which, I'm not. I just finally am taking the recommendations of everyone who sees my picture to grow my freaking hair out. This is not peer pressure, folks. I'm just thinking I would look better...but, now, I think I've talked more about my hair in this post than I ever have in any blogpost ever, so I think I'll just stop now.

Listening To: Insurance? by The Higher

"...Let's burn this filthy town straight into the ground
With our dirty looks and glances
Come on, can you hear us now?
As we rock you, shock you, drop you
And make you want it more
And we're gonna risk it all for the weekend..."

I'm also taking up exercising. Nothing like spots, but just some Wii Fit and crazy dancing to a crazy playlist, which, it's actually quite miraculous how many calories you can burn in just an hour of flopping around like a fish with your iPod on your hip. I guess I'm trying to get all active and healthy-ish and stuff, even though I really don't need to. Still, exercise will keep me thin.

But what I say to real sports is what Miles "Pudge" Halter in Looking For Alaska says:

"I hated sports. I hated sports, and I hated the people who played them, and I hated people who watched them, and I hated the people who didn't hate people who watched or played them."

Yeah...

I guess I won't be doing much today except some RP'ing with Flash and maybe Kira if she gets on, but other than that, I'll probably just stalk Twitter a little bit and cruise the blogs to find some more to Follow, and look through the ones I'm already Following to see if I still want to Follow them. Speaking of blogs that I Follow, Flash should definitely post a blog. ;D And whether she does or not, you should check out her blog because she's awesome.

See, look? I'm trying to sell her like a ShamWOW! again.

Imprisoned inside this mind, hiding behind the empty smiles.

Listening To: The Arms Of Sorrow by Killswitch Engage
Feeling: A little hungry.

"...Imprisoned, inside this mind
Hiding behind the empty smiles
So simple (the anguish)
As it mocks me
Crawling back into the dark
Running, always running, into the distance
Stop me before I bleed, again
The echoes of my voice
Follow me down
The shadows I cast
Follow me down..."

I'm definitely loving Twitter. I may be posting too much, but meh; I'm new, so I guess that gives me a free pass, perhaps? I just didn't want anyone to think I was going to stop blogging all of a sudden because I have a lazier, quicker, and shorter way to do it, while being instantly updated on all of the people I Follow. I tend to talk too much, rather descriptively so, and that's why I must blog. I think these are the traits of a writer.

Speaking of writing.

Last night, I started writing something revolving around Mercedes Montgomery (The character; not me and my Twitter name). I sort of always wanted to revolve a book around her because she has such an interesting character to me, and though I'm pretty sure this'll turn into a short story rather than a book, I'm still pretty excited to at least be writing something. Everytime I sit down to write, it doesn't have to be a novel. I think my mindset has been stuck in this mode where I mustmustmust write a novel; no short stories, songs, poems. And that's my downfall.

So, if this turns out to be a short story, so be it. Let's just hope it'll be well-written and awesome to look back on a year from now when hopefully my writing has improved, sort of like my doodles drastically improved in just a year. Improving so much that it really didn't look like I ever had artistic talent and then SHAZAM, I apparently do.

Or so people tell me.

Listening To: Basement Ghost Singing by Armor For Sleep

"...Now I'm in your basement
I'm laying low to keep out of your way
I hear your footsteps
Move the floorboards above my head
I have my own routine now
I'm keeping busy in my own way
I'm learning ways to not feel
Like I'm down here forever..."

In other, much more random news, I switched from the my green Nano I got for Christmas back to my way-old original iPod. Yes, that thing still works, and has a vaguely okay battery life. I just have way too many songs that aren't fitting on that Nano and it's tiny little 8GB it's trying to tote. Yeah, it had a video camera. And a radio. Both of which I really didn't use either of. I gave it to mom, though she doesn't listen to music a ton, I think she'll enjoy it.

In a couple weeks I might be sending it in to get it replaced for $50 or whatever it costs, but at Christmas it's already been established I'm getting the newest original iPod, which can contain up to 40,000 songs or whatever. This, of course, will mean that I will be in heaven. I don't know if I'd ever be able to fill it up in my whole lifetime, but you can bet your buns that I'm going to try.

Also, I stopped re-reading Just Listen a long time ago, for some reason. I really, really love that book, I just felt like re-reading a different one. Thus, today, I have started re-reading John Green's Looking For Alaska for...the third of fourth time. The last time I re-read it being last month.

Yeeaaahhh, I like his books, okay?

I also am going to start work on a little art "project." You see, I have this huge sketchpad. I may've blogged about it, but it's more likely that I just told Flash and forgot to blog about it. Either way, this thing is twice the size of a laptop's screen. At least, I would say so. This thing is glorious, and even though I mostly use it for just being able to do a ton of doodles on one page, I'm going to take all of my OCs that I commonly use and draw them all together on this huge-bum page. I'm not sure why I want to do this, but I feel like it should be done.

I'll probably take my time on this, so I can't say when it'll actually be done, or when I'm going to start (But it'll be soon. Either tomorrow or today, I'd say), but I might even post WIPs. And you know it's serious business when that happens, because I tend not to show my art to many people.

So, look forward to that, guys.

So, I guess I'm off to mess around online a little and then go read some Ouran manga (Yes, yes, I've only read a few volumes. I know. I don't look like a true fan, do I? Even though I own all the Ouran episodes in a DVD set that I bought from Disc Replay that looks like it came straight from Japan, and, thus, only has Japanese audio and Japanese audio with jacked-up subtitles).

You would not believe your eyes if ten million Asian guys sneaked in your room as you fell asleep.

Listening To: Asian Guys (Parody of Fireflies) by NHBFilms
Feeling: Happy, yo.

"...You would not believe your eyes
If 10 million asian guys
Sneaked in your room as you fell asleep
With wide eyes and gelled up hair
And video games everywhere..."

I love this song. xD It makes me laugh every single time I listen to it. But in a good way; I love the Asian culture, so I'm obviously not making fun of them, and the guys who made the parody are Asain, too.

So no hatin'.

But the point of this post is that I finally got a Twitter.

Yes.

http://twitter.com/TheMercedesM

Follow me, dears? It would make a very happy Merce.

I've been thinking about fixing my brain, but I'm afraid I won't feel the same.

Listening To: Fixing My Brain by Brad Sucks
Feeling: Stomach pain. xD

"...Spending more and more time up in bed
Thinking 'bout the things I think you said
It's been on my mind and it’s hard to find
Bad habits come and come and go
I'm afraid my mind is getting slow
I swear it’s not so hard to understand..."

Okay, first, the reason I haven't been posting is because I was waiting for something semi-worth talking about, and I guess I finally have it. So, sorry if any of you were waiting (Though I'm pretty sure that if anyone was waiting, it was Flash).

Now, if you don't go check out the band Brad Sucks, I'm going to have to punch you. Not in just the jeans, either. In the blouse. In the wig. In the Converse. Whatever; I'm going to punch you.

Someone may ask how I discovered such a lovely band, and that is because I was watching 51 Things I Found In My Room videos (Yes, I'm still watching those. I'm addicted to that. I did it once myself a LONG time ago, but most of the stuff I showed was fail. Too much Twilight and way too much Jonas Brothers, and even though I still love Twilight, I looked like a tween dumb-bum), and someone had the song "Borderline" as their background song, so I checked it out.

Listening To: Time To Take Out the Trash by Brad Sucks

"...Down in the mouth and having trouble remembering
Hold my heart out loud and turn it up until your earrings bleed
Time to take out the trash, you know it's easy
But it seems harder every time you try to think about it
Time to take out the trash, you know it's easy..."

Let's see, what else? Oh, I recently visited my great aunt on my dad's side, whom I LOVELOVELOVE. ♥ She is totally the best great aunt EVAR. We're closer than anyone one else on dad's side of the family besides dad himself. xD But anyway, aside from all her awesomeness, when I went to visit her with dad he brought up the fact that I am a doodling monster and she wanted to see my sketches, but my sketchbook had nothing worthwhile at ALL in it. :c So lately, I've been sketching in that. ♥ Next time I see her I can't wait to show her some of my stuff, even though I usually get embarrassed when showing it to anyone other than a)my parents or b)my close friends.

Speaking of the doodles, I think I'm getting better. At least, that's what Flash said; about my faces, at least. o3o I'm drawing a lot of random guys lately, too, and they're all so adorable. But I doubt any of them will be made into real characters...still, speaking of real characters, I'm trying to develop Chinatsu/Hardcore's personality, as well as Jackie, Miles, and Riot. The whole band. It's coming along pretty slow, but still pretty good/okay.

Chinatsu has a boyfriend now, too. Haruki. x3 I like how he's "spring wood" and she's "a thousand summers." I think they're both pretty bright and happy, so.

Dude, I talk about my original characters way more than I actually talk about myself. There's probably something wrong with that, albeit less narcissistic.

Speaking of, Mercedes Montgomery actually is getting a Bio tweak. I decided that she did not turn alternative because of breaking up with Dawson (Because that just seems really, really lame, and not like her), but because she got in a car accident, and it ended up messing up her back so bad she's lucky she can stand up straight. And she deals with all this pain even now, and the painkillers her doctor perscribed her don't work so well.

And right after the accident I guess she had a little depression because of the pain. I assume something like that would make you upset, indeed, and I guess in this depression she drastically changed her appearence and ended up liking it. And that's how all of that happened.

And how his guts were all suspended in his fingers.

Listening To: July, July! by the Decemberists
Feeling: Sick & Tired.

"...And the water rolls down the drain
The blood rolls down the drain
Oh, what a lonely thing
In a blood red drain..."

I am feeling very sick and tired today. I don't know why, since I slept so many hours last night and got up late this morning. ;C But my muscles are all weak and my eyes are dry and sore despite my glorious eye drops. My throat was sore yesterday, too, but it's not so much anymore; it still does and it's dry, but not as bad? o3o I'm not sure how to describe it, but I really want an ice cream sandwich right now.

Trying to brainstorm with Flash to RP something that doesn't immediantly fizzle out. Our theory is that if it's fantasy we could just throw a flying rainbow llama in and make things interesting and use a snapton of characters. This way, everything should be kept interesting FOREVER.

I have nothing much to post today except I think I'm going to work on the OC page here and then go fall asleep somewhere, probably. Whichever comes first. I just can't believe today's post was so short...I almost always have something to talk about, even if nobody cares. Maybe it's becoming boring for you guys because I'm posting blogs so often?

You got some kind of nerve taking all I want.

Listening To: You Found Me by the Fray
Feeling: Sleepy.

"...I found God on the corner of 1st and Amistad
Where the West was all but won
All alone, smoking his last cigarette
I said, "Where you been?", He said, "Ask anything"
Where were you, when everything was falling apart?
All my days were spent by the telephone that never rang
And all I needed was a call that never came
To the corner of 1st and Amistad..."

Though I don't imagine that God smokes cigarettes, I love this song a lot. To me, it's all about feeling that God wasn't there when you needed him, and finding you when you've already broke inside. I know it must be hard to believe sometimes because of the hardships everyone goes through; and I know someone might skip this post just because I'm talking about religion a little, but it's only this paragraph, guys. There've been times when I've asked, "Why?" in my life and "Where were you?" but I've never stopped believing, even though it's been hard at certain times. I think it takes a lot more to believe than it does not to.

On a much less serious note (Or perhaps serious in a different manner), you may've noticed I changed the name of my blog. This is because I want to go for a more serious impression; I was thinking of doing a completely new blog, and am still thinking about it (Though probably not going to do it); but more likely I'm going to delete all the silly/stupid posts. That doesn't mean there will only be serious posts; I just mean the super immature ones. I'm also thinking about making a secondary blog. For what, I'm not quite sure yet. xD I was thinking one for talking about my writing, but writing is such a big thing in my life that it belongs here on A Little More Than Nothing.

Speaking of the name change, do you like it?

Listening To: Rust by Telekinesis

"...I've got a heart but it's afraid to love
Sometimes i think the d*mn thing's full of rust
And every time it seems to skip a beat
Or two or four or five or sometimes three
It pumps something that i cannot call blood
And why'd it have to stop when you said love
'Cause don't you know that at the thought of it
The sucker goes ahead and calls it quits..."

Another opinion I'd like is if you want me to keep posting a snippage of lyrics from what I'm listening to, or just the lyrics in the title (Either way, I'm at least keeping the lyrics in the title, because I think it fits most of the time. Oh, and if my smilies (example, xD) annoy you.

So, as for my writing, I don't know if the Mafia thing is fit to be a book. I've probably said this before and you all are getting whiplash from how often I jump back and forth. xD But I was actually thinking of maybe making it into a short story. Or just writing a collection of short stories in general? I'm not sure. Flash was talking about doing a series of short stories set in the land of her Realm Gods, which sounds like a good idea to me. I'd probably just end up doing a series of shorts about Mercedes Montgomery and her daily life, which I would say most people probably wouldn't want to read. xD But I would like to write a book with her as the main character. She could keep it witty.

Aaannd one of the reasons the Mafia is either a)undergoing a serious plot editing or b)not being made into a book, is because I want to take Ric and Vic out of it. :c I just can't see Ric as a wolf. I see him as a normal, straight guy with a very gay appearance, just like I've always imagined him since I actually developed his Gary Stu character and turned him normal. Though I can see Vic being in a mafia and being a master gunsmen, he can do that without being in a magical realm.

So, yeah. So much for being out of writer's block properly. Well, at least I'm getting there. I'll probably scrape the remaining pieces of the Mafia plot and do something with it...eventually.

Listening To: I'm Not Good by Julia Nunes

"...And as I’ve well established
I am scared of the unknown
So we’ll take it slow, and I’ll let you know
I think we’ll be fine with a little time
I’m getting better at saying things
But it’s still so new
And I may blurt out words that are so unheard of
But I’ll hope that you like me too..."

Also, I'm trying to make a new character. I don't have her name or anything, but I have her hairstyle (I was cruising the 'Net - wow, that is such a white gangsta way to say "looking around on the Internet - and found a picture of a hairstyle that was amazing. I might actually try to style my hair that way one time, but I'll probably epically fail at it, like I do at life) down, and she probably has her knuckles pierced (Can't remember if there was an official name for it) and a vertical labret piercing like on the front of the Dying Is Your Latest Fashion album. I'm not sure what else she has, but I'll have to bug Flash for name ideas.

Oh, I'll be doing little short list intro/shortshortshort bios on the Original Characters (OCs) page, and I might be doing a very narcissistic About Me page for newcomers to the blog or something.

It's like we're chasing all those stars.

Listening To: Secrets by OneRepublic
Feeling: Tired

"...Tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away..."

So, I'm incredibly tired right now, and I'm not even sure why. I slept like a baby last night; the night before, no, definitely not, but it usually only takes me one night to recharge. BUT not only am I tired, I am cold, which is a bad combination. If I grab a quilt and get warm, then I'll probably fall asleep. Warm = sleep.

This I know.

My parents recently got me a t-shirt that is pink with navy stitching and stuff, and it says "Save me," and has musical notes. I'm trying to figure out if it's a lyric from a song or if it's trying to say something like "Save me, music, because you're the only thing that's keeping me sane," or something.

I'd rather believe the latter, because music keeps me sane. C: I'm always listening to it, especially when I'm blogging. It really helps me open up and talk to you guys, even though I haven't really talked about anything really deep since that series of blogposts where I was talking about my friends - or, rather, I should say, lack thereof - and about life and growing up and crap. I'm not sure if I failed at being serious or if it came through right or what.

Listening To: Missing Persons 1 & 2 by OneRepublic

"...Everybody's staring straight at me
You spend it all chasing those lies
I dont really wanna take that chance
I dont really wanna do that dance
I dont know what to do till you say
Oh I dont wanna let you go
But I cant keep holding on
Skies of silver, stars of gold
And now you know just what you like
So far this love is all I have
So far this hurt is all I have..."

I've also realized something: I haven't had a "crush," in a very, very long time. Used to be, this would be a cause for freaking out and rushing to find someone to like. I'm thinking that the fact that I don't need to like or lust after someone is some sort of sign that I'm "growing up," *airquotes* or something. Which makes me sound like I'm thirteen or something (Though I'm not. Dude, thirteen was a horrible year for me). xD

Of course, I still drool after quite a few famous musical manchests, but I don't have some sort of crazy unnatural obsession like I did with the Jonas Brothers (Glad to be out of THAT phase) where I practically cried when I found out Joe Jonas got a girlfriend and was crossing my fingers for months that they would break up. Now THAT is unnatural.

Thanks for breaking out of that phase, self. *pats shoulder* So proud.

An empty barren carcass armed with a mind.

Listening To: Waves of Oppression by Mychildren Mybride
Feeling: Same as the last two posts (Man, a lot of blogposting today, amirite?)



"...An empty barren carcass
Armed with a mind
With ambition for victory, I confide
To encourage, invoking all that's inside
I prevail over every wicked bitter thing you've said
We, we prevail, mere champions among men
Finally I can breathe, I can breathe again
My lungs no longer filled with disbelief..."


1) Choose one of your own characters (OC).
2) Make them answer the following questions.
3) Then tag three people.
4) Feel free to add some questions of your own.


I'm going to do three. D Three new OCs, bebbeh. GUESS WHO, LOVEBUKKIT?

1) What gender are you?
Sinclair: Am I really that ambiguous with my gender? D8 I'm a male.
Mercedes: *snicker* If anyone's ambiguous around here, it's Ric. I'm female.
Gore: I'ma boy. Oh, hello baby, you're looking really FUH-YINE today. s
Mercedes: Can somebody fetch me a baseball bat?

2) What is your age?
Sinclair: Well, apparently, Merce hasn't solidly decided upon this, but she thinking around one-thousand years old, because supposedly Crow and I had some sort of romantic conncetion at one time and it's just all very confusing.

Mercedes: Dipsnap created me as nineteen originally, but apparently I'm 21 now.

Gore: *pelvic thrust* I'm 300 years old. ;D
3) Do you want a hug?
Sinclair: Oh, err, sure. Why not? *carefully extends arms*
Mercedes: Hug me and this cigar meets with your face.
Gore: Depends. :D If the host of this is a girl, then you bet your buns I want a hug.

4) Do you have any bad habits?
Sinclair: I think I have a habit of being too polite at times. Someone told me once I walk a thin line between adorable and annoying.
Mercedes: People say my mouth is a bad habit and that I should keep it shut. *grin*
Gore: Ohohoho, bby, I-
Mercedes: DON'T EVEN, DAWSON.
Gore: D8 I thought we agreed you weren't going to call me that wretched human name anymore.
Mercedes: I lied. Oh, that might be a bad habit.

5) What is your favorite food?
Sinclair: Ever since I became genetically compromised, I can't have food. I have injections of nutrients on the first day of every month.
Mercedes: Asian food, I guess

Sinclair: :'D Thank you.
Gore: Enough mush over there, or you're going to end up her next boyfriend.
Mercedes: You never know.
Gore: Anyway, my weakness is probably my love for women. I can't say I haven't been swindled by one or two.
Mercedes: Mine could be the fact that I usually don't give anyone a chance.

21) How long can you stay under water?
Sinclair: As long as I want. D
Mercedes: I can't remember. I tried one time.
Gore: As long as I wanted to. I am a scary undead being and whatnot.

Mercedes: I write.
Gore: Makeout with some chick.

Mercedes: Hey, I could always be your love.
Sinclair: How about it?
Gore: Get off each other, you two, you're practically different species. :C And no, I don't.

Mercedes: I will cut a-

Mercedes: Pssht, yeah right. Liar.
Gore: That's right. x3 I could have any girl I need, I don't need your punky bum.
*censored for extreme beating over the head with a bat*

52) Do you enjoy your life?
Sinclair: Somewhat.
Mercedes: Sorta.

60) (how did it go from 53 to 60) do you think your attractive?
Sinclair: Well, duh.

Gore: Of course I am! Everybody wants a piece of THIS. *pelvic dance*

Listening To: Pen To Paper by Julia Nunes

Feeling: Stomach pain AND back pain, darnit.

"...And I've tried hard

To prove that I am strong

But you know

And I know

That I've been wrong

And we talked for a while with our opposite styles

And I thought it might work if only for a while

Together we make such uncomfortable sounds

You open your mouth and I'm laughing so loud

See I can talk forever

Except when it counts..."

OBSESSIONS, YO. MIEN.

JUSTIN BEIBER LIEK OMAIGAWRSH!!!one1oneONE!!!

I KID, I KID. I can't stand the little gnome. Now, for the real obsessions.

FLASH. I stalk her through the computer just like she stalks me. ;D BEST FRANDS FOREVER. ♥

L LAWLIET. He's my favorite anime guy EVAR; I love him to death. <3>

These gosh-darn rubber bracelets every alternative person you see has on. xD I bought some a long time ago and now it's like everytime I go out I find myself wearing them (I have three sets. Mixed, all black, and neon, which I sometimes wear all at the same time or mix them up and whatnot).

AKA, Flash's drawings. Teh girl and boy together are my charries Mercedes and Gore, whom she drew for me because we did an art trade. ♥ Seriously, I love her art to bits. o3o

Doodling. D Doodle and Jackie Montgomery belong to me.

SHOWBREAD. <3>

Passion Pit. D8 OMGWTF I've known about them forever, but then got bored one day and started listening to some of their other songs. Turns out, they're the epicest thing EVAR. Or, one of them.

Telekinesis!, which is also someone I've known about forever but hadn't checked out until recently. D They pwn you and your house (TELL ME; WHO'S IN DA HOUSE?) and your dog.

Srsly, I love Japan with all my little heart. ♥ AND I ALWAYS SHALL! *glares at the haters* xD

Nearly anything emo/alt/scene/punk/hipster/goth/etc. D I post a boy here because I find him attractive.

Not Taylor Lautner (I love the guy and all, and probably have an obsession with him but I'm just posting a few of my obsessions, yo), but MANCHEST IN GENERAL. 8D

The nothing is in love with me.

Listening To: The Dirt (Nervosa version) by Showbread
Feeling: Epic stomach pain.

"...I want to open up my guts
And crawl inside to make a home
And nestle up inside the steaming softness silent and alone
I want to pull apart the things you think that matter
Cause to me nothing is everything just a vacant listless clatter
And I bury myself underneath myself
I will not reach or call for help
I want to do this on my own I want to feel it in my bones
I want to know the ugliness that wraps around me..."

Durrrrrr. So, now I've been working on my story, or at least one part of it, lately. The part of the Bloody Crow Creed (Or BCC, if I'm feeling lazy). I've gotten a few of the members done (Gotta work on the personalities and whatnot, though I have a vague idea for most of them. Very vague), and doodled them. I would post them here but they are so fail (Except the one of Sinclair is pretty, I think. ♥ Him and his eyepatch. I might post that one sometime soon).

And thus, (Not in the order I came up with them xD)

• Crow (Leader), female
• Amity, female
• Leech, male
• Chasm, male
• Vienna, female
• Atrophy, male (Thanks, Showbread, for the name idea D)
• Sinclair, male (YOU PRETTY-BOY D8)
• Apathy, female
• Bogeyman, male (but you can't really tell which one he is D IT'S PART OF HIS ALLURE)

So, indeed. I can't really think of anything to post, for once, which is weird for me.

Listening To: So Selfish, It's Funny by Showbread

"...So tense are these nerves in any instance
Teeth snap and a toe taps the dirt
Cry like a baby and see if then maybe
The others will cherish your hurt
Never you see a cry or plea
consider another or first
Know this is your world
The harsh words you have hurled
Recall you are the one in need worse..."

So, I'm obviously loving that Flash is posting her blogs everyday. :D She never fails to make them interesting, even if she doesn't think she has anything good to say. Whereas, right now, I am failing.

Though, I'm going to try and edit my blog and make it look pretty and seizure-inducing and bright. Flash edited hers and says it was pretty easy, but then again, she is probably the smartest person I've ever met. xD She doesn't act like fourteen, let me tell you. She's just epic in general.

But now I'm getting off topic, grr. Whenever I start talking about Flash I always start saying good things about her like I'm trying to sell one of those faily products on TV like the ShamWOW! or the Snuggie (STFU, I know I have one, but it's WARM. WARM, I tell you!).

IF YOU ACT NOW, WE'LL THROW IN A FREE MERZ! CALL BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE, 1-800-GITAFLASH (warning: this is not a real number).

I am growing my hair out, though, still. I'm debating on whether to get it cut. ;c Everybody's telling me that they like it even better now that it's growing, but I still miss my short locks. I need to post a picture sometime soon, but I'll probably just wait until it supa-long or whatever.

A face that's marked by pallor means you're wasting away, so get a tan and raise your hands and take to feeling okay.

Listening To: Lost Connection With The Head
Feeling: Rather pale

"...I'm languorously open ended
And the endings no good
I've been told to break the mold and I would if I could
But apathy is easier than caring at all
And the undulating nothingness means having a ball
Incredibly impressive and bereft of concern
Lobotomized and optimized and then I'm ready to burn
And I'm at war within myself and self is winning the fight
Cause feeling like no one at all means feeling alright..."

I'm seriously in love with Showbread. And Passion Pit. I've found a few bands that I love as well; The Almost, Mychildren Mybride, and And Then There Was None. I think I got that last name right. o; I don't have enough time to make a long post, but I'll try to make one soon.

I just got on for about an hour, and at the tail-end of it was like, "Oh. I should post a blogpost."

There's nothing much going on here in this household. I'm just writing on my book; I have 4,500 and some words, and I started on...the 6th of April. I need to get to 6k words today if I want to keep up any sort of schedule, but I probably won't. I just need to write as it comes along.

And I've officially made the title of it Hello, Nightmare. It plays a bigger part in it and the plot is more complicated, with with The Bloody Crow Creed.

Sorry, I can't link to the song, YouTube is being weird. ;c Just look up Showbread, you fools.

Well, that is just not my concern.

Listening To: Ocean Waves by Flyleaf
Feeling: Blergh. And hungry.

"...Respect her ignorance
Just in case she takes offense
The darkness that's killing her
Well that is just not my concern
How could I have been so blind
To simply let them die
Who am I to spread my fingers
After you have filled my hands
Watching the moments slip through like desert sand
You're not guaranteed tomorrow...."

RAWR.

You see, the Google FriendConnect thing or whatever it is is bothering me. It's because it keeps saying I have a message from Krisi, and if I want to accept the message. So I've clicked yes quite a few times, and still, it keeps saying it'll send it to my email. It never does, and it still says I have a message. So I have no idea what's going on there.

Nothing is going on with the novel. I've just been doing character development for random characters that aren't even in this Hello, Nightmare novel or whatever it's going to be called; I haven't touched it since. I'm very close to trashing it and lurking back into writer's block while drawing something and glancing crazily over my shoulder.

Which is, basically, what I've been doing lately anyway. I swear I at least doodle something every single day. Lately, I've been doodling Flash's characters, too, and not only because her character Adam (Drawing by her, of course) is one of my many fictional boyfriends. Though that is probably part of the reason (He's one of the Realm Gods of hers. Big huge wolves with complicated stuff, you know o; ).

At least I'm getting better at this doodling business. I don't want to ever be an artist or anything, but I guess it would be pretty epic if one day I could design the covers of my future novels. That would probably be very handy as time went on, as I plan to continuously publish novels until I die...once I finally get one published, that is. Still, I'm just a teen, yo. I don't really need to worry about it for awhile. I just need to write and write and write and write, even though that's not what I've been doing lately, as previously stated.

Listening To: Heads Will Roll (A-Trak Remix) by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

"...Off, off with your head
Dance, dance 'till your dead
Heads will roll, heads will roll
Heads will roll on the floor
Looking glass, take the past
Shut your eyes, you realize
Looking glass, take the past
Shut your eyes, you realize..."

If you'd like to see some of my doodles, just click DANCETILLYOURDEAD. Click to enlarge.

Adam is the biggest one going all "Ohaider ~ ♥ " I can't do him justice. *pokes the Mercedes Montgomery on the DANCETILLYOURDEAD link* That's the name I sign all my art with, even though it isn't my real name. xD I may've mentioned this before. But now I'm mentioning it again.

Those are all Flash's characters (And I will now proceed to link to her own drawings of her characters). Froze, Speed, Jackie (The Jackie with the sprig of white hair is hers, the one with red hair is my Jackie; but she drew them both, this was not a collab xD), Scotty (The one with the tattoo), Adam, and Pixie.

PLEASE DON'T KILL ME FOR SHOWING YOUR DOODLES, FLASH.

You know I love them.

Listening To: Let It All Out by Relient K

"...Reach out to me
Make my heart brand new
Every beat will be for you
For you
And I know you know
You touched my life
When you touched my heavy heart and made it light..."

Thank you.
