Day Versus Night - 300 Pages

WHOOO!
Congratulate me!
This is a great milestone. My last milestone, 200 pages, is a whole 21,000 words less.
I put in so much important content for this.

It was 300 earlier, but I re-formatted the pages to fit a lot more content.

Two clicks and the pages looked better. But I cut them down a good 60 pages.
Then I fixed some paragraphs (you have to press enter twice to really start a new paragraph and I forgot to do it a lot) and that gained twenty pages.
And I wrote another forty yesterday.
I got it back to three hundred AND made the pages look better and hold more text.

Here you go.


Amazing, isn't it?

In a great celebration for this moment I created a new cover for the book. I will also be keeping the other one there, but this one I like better.


and it has the amazing 'Shady Lady' font I love.
To make covers, you have to resize the image right and then make it behind the text, align the text on it and color it and stuff, then save it as PDF and then snip it and save the image.

Ta-dah.

To make matters better, I will post a few pictures of inspiration (which are epically dark and stuff, just ignore the fact they are pretty creepy) that I got when i as writing the book AND a list of songs that have really pushed me to do it.


Songs that inspired me:


 Wiseblood, Man Or Ash, Long Whip, Perals Before Swine, Bottom Feeder, Deliverance, Seven Days, Senor Limpio, Shake Like You, Fuel, The Door, Albatross, Heaven's Not Overflowing, Clean My Wounds, Born Again For the Last Time, Take What You Want, and The Snake Has No Head by Corrosion of Conformity. Did My Time, Lies, Word up, Clown, Blind, Kidnap the Sandy Claws, Ball Tongue, Shoots and Ladders, Right Now, Here To Stay, Politics, Twisted Transistor, Coming Undone, Get Up, Make Believe, Take it Back by Korn. Battering Ram and Overlord by Black Label Society, Bad Medicine by Bon Jovi, Panama by Van Halen. Again, Heaven Besides You, Check My Brain, Angry Chair, Bleed the Freak, Get Born Again, Head Creeps, I Stay Away, Lesson Learned, No Excuses, Rooster, Them Bones, We Die Young, and Would? by Alice In Chains. Indestructible, Inside the Fire, Down with the Sickness, and Stricken by Disturbed PLUS a good dozen or two more, like some of the SlipKnot songs.


Pictures that inspired me (beware =_=):





Pretty awesome, huh?
If you drag those to the top of the browser, it'll open it full size in a new tab.

Here are my old milestones xD one is only 174 pages. 

40,000 words

35,000 words/170 pages


200 pages

As you can see, these milestones are hardly awesome in the light of my GREATEST ONE SO FAR :D

Just scroll back up to the top to see my awesome current three-hundred-page milestone!

REMEMBER you can drag any pictures to the top of your browser and see a nice big full view. 

As for me, I should do school, though I just realized a ton of mistakes in the beginning of my book concerning technicalities *mutters something about aunts and jobs and mirrors*

AND I HAVE HOMESTYLE BAKES IN THE OVER ALL FOR MYSELF FOR LUNCH OH MY GOSH.

krafituh kituh. 
disinsectant fray.
blarb.
The freaking insanity.

I went to the mall ALL day yesterday, and got awesome black clothes. 
I'm geeking out about it /intense girly hype mode activate/ because they are SO cute *squeal*

I'll burnt the eyes out of my customers with my fashion. 
*cough*

Anyways, I'm pleased over getting a paper done and catching up in Prose and Poetry though I'm completely behind in Physics. 
FML. 

I also feel awful for spending too much on a Kiddle and one cord for my headphones D': hopefully my father won't bite me for it.

Anyways, I really only feel like talking about myself and listening to a strange miz of Guns and Roses and Nightmare Before Christmas cover songs, so I best leave you be to get some sleep.

I can't have bags under my eyes for my job orientation.

*girly squeal* I get to wear a cute outfit tomorrow with awesome huge star earrings!

*prances away*

A Grand New Job

Congratulate me :D

Okay. so after applying for Pick N Save, Kmart, Walgreens, McDonald's, Cousin's Subs, Burlington Coat Factory, Boston Store, and Target, I got a call from one of the places for an interview.

So I went in, had my interview (it was about a half-hour long) and came out hopeful.

Later that night, not more than a few hours later, I got another call.
A job offer.

I am more than excited to start working, and pull in a little cash. I really have been down on allowance :/ I could use some on the side to feed a not-too-intense-but-still-labelled-under obsession on Kiddles, seeing as all the richer collectors get their grubby hands in the works right as the auction time comes down and takes my Kiddles from me.
Money.
And I'll get to be with people all day. I love people.
I love you if you're reading this, too.
Love.

Unfortunately, it's only seasonal.
It means I'll give one hundred and ten percent to stay on board.
Hopefully after all we've been through in the end, I'll get to stay with the team. C:

I go in four days from now for a little orientation.

This is going to rock.

Unfortunately their dress code is a lot of black and I have a rather colorful wardrobe.
That's cool.
My parents are more than thrilled at the fact I get a job and they will take me out to get some clothes.
Black is slimming.
and, adorable. 
Especially on owls. 

SO, anyways, wish me luck going out into the world of people, retail, and germs.


Preparing for work.

Dragged Into Kiddles



I was at my friend's house the other day (you know who you are ;) and her sister waved an old kiddle in my face.
Being as I normally get into Kiddles when the holidays come around, my friend's sister (also my friend xD) really gave it a kick start.

I looked around to see that Kiddles were going up in price. It's insane really. I cannot believe the money you'd have to pay for - or I'd get for selling - even crappier Kiddles.



Here are two, perfect, in their packages.
I have neither of them xD

Most Kiddles today, because they were made in the 60s, look like this
Still worth much...but...yeah.
Very worn, isn't it.
That wasn't a question.

BUT if you see a lot like THIS

it'l fetch you 1,300 dollars.
That's what that lot went for. Perfect set of dolls.
As for me, my dolls have plenty of imperfections and overall are pretty played with.
As for my friend's mom's doll, which is an original Kiddle Kologne Honeysuckle doll in played with condition, her's is worth about 15 bucks, not unlike mine.
But I have 12. Only five are that small (I find those adorably fun to play with because they have rubber feet).
I'll take a picture of them now while celebrating this post for being the most kiddle-ish and most full of pictures of ALL my posts.
Probably the happiest for awhile as well.
HERE :D
I'll make it like
The name I gave them (the kind of Kiddle they are)

From top left:

Sara (Babe Biddle)
Cindy (Cinderiddle)
Gwen (Sleeping Biddle)
Tasmin (Lady Lavender)
Therese (Freezy Sliddle)
Nora (Windy Fliddle)

From bottom left:

Susie (Trikey Triddle)
Genevieve (Violet Kiddle Kologne)
Audyn (Lou Locket)
Demetra (Luana Locket)
Ivana (Greta Grape)
Lucille (Lilac Locket)

I do love them all, but tend to play with the littler ones because the bigger ones' hair is all frizz xD PLUS, the little ones are much eviller looking than they're supposed to. Most of the lockets and stuff have adorable baby faces that are sweet or innocent, and all mine are frightfully and oddly different in facial expression.

The most perfect hair in the bunch is Demetra's.
Nora is my most perfect Kiddle, all bends, nice hair, good color, no green spots.
My most damaged one is Sara, who's arm is falling off, is missing half a leg and a foot, has a green spot on her butt, has hair missing and wires poking out.
I got her for 75 cents at Goodwill though.
I used Ivana and Demetra, the Kiddles, and put them in my book. :D That's where they come from.

Only Susie and Nora are wearing their original clothes in the picture besides the tiny ones (who are forced to be clothed for eternity unless they are owned by a destructive and explorative child), but Tasmin, Cindy, and Therese have their real clothes as well (though they don't look so great in those original clothes all the time).

I love them.

I'll probably buy one or two more in this small obsession, put them in their house and let them rot all summer, and get back into them again xD

One last ADORABLE picture of Liddle Miss Muffet's kiddle spider.

SATs, Physics, and Injuries, oh my


TOO MUCH THINKING *explosion*
My head is at the mercy of everything else.

I was on the swings like I normally do, listening to music and stuff, when I heard BUMPBUMP and I was on the ground and my head had a stinging pain, and I had hit the fence really hard, and I looked to see the swing broken apart.
First thought, "MY HEADPHONES!" and I stopped the music and checked my headphones.

Then I felt the pain.
I stood up and walked to the house and I put my hand behind my head.
LOTS OF BLOOD. My hand was covered in blood.
We went to the ER.
I got 9 staples in my head.
Pleasant.

Now SATs are tomorrow /shiver/ HOW AM I GOING TO SURVIVE?!
I've been doing practice tests ;__; hopefully that will do some good.

WOWEE TWO WEEKS BEHIND IN PHYSICS

AND I HAVE A BOOK REPORT DUE NEXT WEEK.


heeellllpppppppppp

Also I need a job really badly.
I was only successfully able to apply to Target, Noodles and Co., and Boston Store.
More applications should go in later.

I have too much school now.
/gets off internet to do two Physics tests and lesson and more SAT training.

Working working working working


Gosh. 

Why does everything have to suck?! WHY DO I HAVE TO GO TO COLLEGE NEXT YEAR?!
It's not fair. I'm supposed to be a junior. My parents think it's stupid that I'd want to stay home from college next year, maybe get a job or something. =_= I'm not ready. I'm barely a junior, really, maturity wise and I can't do it. I can't handle that now. I'm so exhausted. I feel helpless in this. I am broke, and expected to pay for this. My parents don't care how many loans I'll have to take out for this O_O the horrible, wracking interest I will have to pay......

I have SATs this Saturday and I'm totally unprepared. I have so much Physics to do...
I need to get away from the computer but I'm so stressed out about stuff. 
Every day I have to care about so many people. 
My parents don't even notice the good. They even bring up stuff from when I was 3, and the won't let it go and say how I've never changed. I feel that o matter what I do I can't be good enough for them, or good enough for the world, and that they'd rather have a different kid than me. A normal kid from a real school. 

It's not fair. 

This is a load of shit barnacles.

I'm finished. 

*goes to gorge self on halloween candy and do physics*

We have gotten a facelift


Yep.
If you haven't noticed by now, the site has a little makeover.

You don't like it?
Take a number.
