Won again, 20 days in this time. Here's an excerpt:

“Think about it man, this is Gunther we are talking about. He plays to win. Sure, his strongest fighter might not be here, but I can bet that some of his men are here. I can't imagine him sending less than three and him still thinking that he has a chance to win it. After all, he knows that all of us are probably here, so he would also want to get rid of some of us before the war begins.” Eir replied.

“How do you know it hasn't?” I asked him.

This quote here about sums up the entire novel: "I am not dumb enough to change the system, I am just dumb enough to get even."

There was one more fight, or two, after mine. I wasn't sure. I was too busy paying attention to my elbow that had itty bitty bits of skin and blood on it.

Well, it panned out pretty fast. Skadi wa

I just don't have internet at my house anymore. Bills and all that jazz. Also, I haven't been writing much lately, which is part of the reason why I have not been updating. Life has just been too... hectic? I don't know. Got a relatively new girlfriend (we've been together just over 3 weeks) after the last one fell through. You know good things are going to happen when you meet a girl when you're dressed in drag (Lady Gaga vs. Madonna dance party at my house. I had cone boobs, a corset, leggings and a wig) and she still finds you attractive. Also, trying to find a second job is a pain in the ass since I cant get by with the one I've got now. Also, I'm moving halfway across town at the end of the month, so i should probably start packing. My birthday is coming up next thursday too, so that should be relatively interesting.

I'll try to get back to writing more, but I just haven't been feeling it lately. Hopefully something good will start to emerge before the end of the week.

Also, I'm already stressing about this year's Nano. Its just the begining of July! shit. Oh well. Inspiration, don't fail me now

10 things about me

1. I like to write a lot, its kind of what I do. I just don't have enough faith in my ability in it do make it a possible career.
2. I want to be a personal therapist as my career, its my second favorite hobby in life.
3. I am a huge nerd. No joke. I have a bunch of magic cards and I have a recently created D&D character.
4. I am the most paranoid person on the planet.
5. I'm also pretty jealous, so that just makes a bad combo.
6. I have no self-esteem. It's not low, its non-existent
7. My cousins are like my brother and sister, without them i'd go crazy
8. I love music. I also am not a big fan of silence, unless i'm trying to sleep.
9. I hate bees. No joke, the bastards terrify me. Got stung 13 times in a span of 10 minutes.
10. I am both shallow and judgmental.

Compilation

2 min read
So yesterday I started a project that required me to read through all of the poems in my "Personal Favorites" folder here on DA, then all of the ones I've written since then. That... took a while. As I went from poem to poem I copied and pasted the ones I still liked into a word document on my computer to keep as a sort of portfolio. The plan is to print it up and put it on my bookshelf. One good thing I discovered was that my poetry seems to be getting better, because the more recent the months get the more poems are in the collection. There are 4 from 2007, 3 from 2008, 17 from 2009, and 9 from this year already. Now I just have to read all of the poems that I've written again and make sure I didn't miss any I liked, and then this project will be complete...ish. I'm going to try and make it a living document, going through my new deviations every month or two and adding new ones to it, to keep it up to date.

Once I finish reading everything again I'll edit my "Personal Favorites" folder with just the ones in the portfolio, since those are going to be the only ones I care about.

EDIT: Finished. Thank god. The folder is all set, go check it out.
EDIT 2: Okay, I'm editing some of them, because I do that sometimes, so I will clog your inbox perhaps. Sorry.
