Apparently I'll be appearing at the Imagine Festival in London this Monday, the 17th. I had a blast last year, where I showed clips from movies, but I'm not entirely sure what I'll do this time. I might read from one of the new short stories. I'd read from the ninth book, but there is nothing from the early sections finished, and anything read from later on would be a spoiler, so...
Oh, and speaking of Book 9, I have just reached the 75,000 word mark. Judging by this, the finished book will be at least 100,000 words, which is Mortal Coil length, and could be longer. LSODM will stay the longest, I reckon, simply because of the massive amount of characters involved. But because most of those characters are now DEAD, Book 9 allows me a smaller, more intimate story — while remaining as heart-rendingly traumatic as anything I've written before.
And speaking of heart-rendingly traumatic, I've actually written the last few chapters. Not to completion, of course, but I've written enough to know what happens, and how it ends, and who lives and who dies, and all I can say is...
I am MEAN.

Or Spring. Laying in a field of windflowers. That's nice, not too warm, not too cold and just stunning...
I have spring now. :) It is nice.

Why didn't I notice that? Ugh.
Lucky you, Star. I get to be in Europe for their spring, horse riding across the Tuscany country side...
God, no matter how much I say that, it still sounds awesome!!

The thing is with procrastinating . . .
You spend hours trying to get round to it, and when you do, you see what you have to do is really quite simple, and then you think "Right, if it's that simple, it won't take long so I can do it later" and then you lose the will to do it now.
Urgh. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
You know, I think I spend more time procrastinating than I do doing homework.
Scratch that, I definitely do.
#ChaseForBookNine
(Look at the time gap between those two comments.)
(It's an hour.)
(And hour of my life, gone.)
( . . . I mean, I read some cool articles and feel like my knowledge has expanded because of it, but that's irrelevant.)

Hey, Zaf. :)
I'll hopefully be distant.
#ChaseForBookNine
Hai there! I just woke up
Yes, it's only twenty to ten for you, isn't it? :)
#ChaseForBookNine
(You see, the problem is, you spend so long procrastinating that you're bored as soon as you begin, but if you take a break then you know you'll only get stuck procrastinating again and plus you haven't DONE anything yet.)
#ChaseForBookNine
Yeah roughly....its 5 to 10am
*curls up*
@Zaf: I'm glad you're taking advantage of your weekend. :) :)
Curling up is nice.

What's the ship name for you and dynamite again? :P
Because I ship it.
#ChaseForBookNine
Better than words,
More than a feeling!
Crazy in love,
Dancing on the ceiling!
Every time we touch,
I'm all shook up,
You make me wanna,
How deep is your love?
God only knows!
Baby!
this song makes me smile and feel happy and giggly and one direction! ☺️💁

*giggles* *explodes Derek* he never said I couldnt explode Irish people
I meant to write 'Hey, Mara! :)' and my fingers typed '@Mara:'.
What. :P
Anyway. Hey, Mara! :)
And - I guess it's a good song, then. :)
Did you know that according to some survey somewhere, the majority of adolescents viewed lyrics as a low priority and most of them didn't know the lyrics to their favourite songs?
*sighs*
I'm ashamed of my age group. :P
(Apparently, however, fans of heavy metal music cared more about the lyrics than nonmetal fans.)
(Yeah.)
(Go metalheads.)
#ChaseForBookNine
#ChaseForBookNine
@Zaf: *nods* I'll try to remember that ship name. :)
I have a bad memory for words, though. :P I tend to remember things and what they meant rather than the words they were said in.
@Zaf: Hey. Mara is an Irish person. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
I don't think I'm very good at writing essays. I'm not very good at staying focused. I either start going on about metaphors or start analysing interesting stuff that isn't really related. And then I wander off topic. And forget about my original point. Or just create more points as I go along.
I'm not very good with structure.
Structure, as well as being boring, is also very constricting and it doesn't really allow ideas to flow. If my ideas don't flow, the flow will freeze and I'll just be stuck with a tiny section of water and I won't really know what to do with it. I sort of need the river to flow so I can grab the cool ideas as they meander by.
#ChaseForBookNine
*giggles* Zaffy like dynamite
Of course, if you just become a meandering river that sort of goes where it likes, it becomes increasingly hard to follow, and when you're not a dumb factory replicating products the same as everyone else, it becomes hard to judge. When you're all trying to make the same thing, it's easy to see where people go wrong. You can compare a phone to another phone. But comparing a phone to a fish? How would you go about that? The phone has been made for a purpose, the fish just exists. How can you judge which one can best perform its purpose when one has no purpose? Is the fish's purpose to be eaten? Then how can you judge how well it does that? The skill lies not with the fish, but with the cook. The fish just exists. The fish created itself with the help of nature, the phone has been manufactured. Could you judge how well evolution has equipped the fish for survival to how well the manufactures have equipped the phone to go about its purposes? Probably you could, actually. That would work.
. . .
I think I just defeated my argument. :P
And I have a funny habit of defeating my own arguments, too. *sighs*
But that's what I like to do. Just start typing and then sort of work your way to what you're finding. And you don't know what you're finding until you find it. I was saying that I can't write essays, and now I know how to compare phones and fish. It doesn't matter that the original question hasn't been answered, because you have discovered something, and had a wonderful journey along the way. Essays? In essays, you have to know where you're going and you have to take the reader there. It's like . . . it's like the reader is standing by a fountain and you have to take them to the aquarium. And you have to give a good tour and point out landmarks along the way and discuss the history of the city and blah, but you have to take them to the aquarium. Me? I do a more Hunter-style thing. And maybe I start doing the tour, but then I wander off and get lost, and then I start realising how stupid the tour is anyway, and then I start talking about the stupidity of tours, and then we get the car and go the a theme park and maybe we race each other there, idk. And we never end up going to the aquarium, but we have much more fun at the theme park, and we treasure the memories and get on really well and it's one of the best days we've ever had and . . .
DAMMIT GUYS I'M PROCRASTINATING AGAIN.
#ChaseForBookNine
I think I said something beautiful and meaningful there.
And that's another thing.
Would you not much rather go on a journey and learn lots of valuable things along the way and see some beautiful sights and get really good life experience than just walk along a few grey identical streets, get told a few boring irrelevant facts, and stare at a few fish?
I live near the world's only submarium; why would I need to visit an aquarium anyway?
Hey.
Why would you do to an aquarium when you could travel halfway around the world and see the fish in their natural environment?
Why would you want to be copped up in a building?
Why would you not want to go out and explore the world?
(Oh, gosh. *moans about the lack of homework I'm getting done here*)
#ChaseForBookNine
*cooped
#ChaseForBookNine
"I live near the world's only submarium; why would I need to visit an aquarium anyway?"
Maybe the aquarium will be the best place you've ever been. You don't know until you go there. *nods*
*defeating my own argument again here*
Aquarium is a really nice word, though. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
(I think I spend at least twice the amount of time procrastinating homework as I do doing homework.)

I read once that people tend to cry more from frustration than from sadness.
I think it depends on the type of crying.
And I tend to cry for other reasons as well. I cry when I'm embarrassed, you know. When a teacher tells me off, I often start crying. Then everyone thinks I'm upset about it. It's annoying when someone's having a go at you and it's perfectly justified and you totally get it and you're totally okay with it and you're not really upset, but you're crying, and they try and reassure you, but you wish they would shut up because the more they talk the more you cry and you totally understand it and you're fine, you're fine. It's not really embarrassment. You don't really feel embarrassed. I just have no better word for it. It's just something about the exposure. And they're looking at you, and it's kind of . . . idk, it's all piercing and stuff, and yeah. And then you just start crying. There never seems to be any reason for it.
I suppose I'm procrastinating again.
#ChaseForBookNine
Herm. A random girl just asked me to marry her in the street.
Not back because the minute I came downstairs, Mom threw a huge to do list at me (not literally, mind you).
But Star? Next time you respond to something about the video, could you take me off the list?
Tbh, I feel like my "place" with making videos is editing them and adding original animations and stuff, and it sounds like Luisa has that under control.
And I still don't think I'm comfortable with being in the video part...
And I tried to respond in the email, but got all shy about it.
So yeah.
I agree.
I had a really long thing, and it made no sense, so, I agree. :p
Very well, Fabi.
Gaaah in 45min I can watch Doctor Who on BBC America! And cry because I think its some of the 11th's episodes so if i go cry in a corner I saw Matt Smith on screen and am bawling my eyes out
It's not just teachers. It's like when this girl told me she didn't think I should hang around with that friendship group any more. And I totally understood it, and I could understand why she said it, and I was perfectly fine with it, but I was crying anyway, crying although I was calm, not upset, and she followed me around, going "You do know what I'm saying, don't you?" and keeping on defining her point, and I understood it, I got it, I was fine, just leave me alone.
I don't think talking about this is putting me in a good mood.
I'm in a kind of sad mood, now.
I'm in the kind of mood where I just talk and talk and talk and go over things and detail them and never really have any purpose and I think I should shut up now.
Plus I'm in that kind of emotionally raw mood, like when you've just been crying and you feel all kind of shaky.
If it was lunchtime at school, I would just put my earphones in now and stand there listening until I felt normal again or until the bell went.
As I'm here, I guess I'm just talking.
Talking talking talking.
Talking talking talking.
It's odd when you start talking and suddenly it's just all pouring out, and then you think you should stop, but then that thought has poured out your mouth as well and then you're talking about stopping talking and then you're talking about how you haven't stopped yet and then you're talking about how you should talk less and all the time you're talking, talking, talking, like now, I mean I think I should stop talking, and then I type that, and then suddenly my brain's wandered off and then before you know it all you're doing is thinking, you're up in the clouds, you're in that thought-world, that magic world of . . . thought, but you're still transmitting, and you forget you're typing, you forget people will read it, you're just thinking, and then you come back and say you should stop talking but then you're gone again and you're there, and . . . and I should stop typing but once you tell yourself there you're just sitting there watching yourself type and thinking about how odd it is tha tyou're not stopping. Like, why aren't I stopping? Why am I writing this? I don't know. It's still writing. I'm still writing. I don't know. It's like procrastination. And you think you should stop procrastinating, and then you're sitting there just thinking about how you're procrastinating and THERE I GO I got sidetracked again and my brain floated off and I'm still talking, still typing, and . . . Idk.
(Sorry.)

Herro. :)
@Star: I know exactly what you mean. But you described that so well, I didn't know that before. BUt I did. But I didn't. idk.
But yeah. :)
@Trip: O.o
I'm gonna guess you didn't tell her yes? :P ^^
#ChaseForBook9
I'm actually really proud of how I wrote that last comment. :P I just read it over (I like reading them over after I post them. You see them from a different perspective and it's cool) and I was like WOAH that's cool.
I should include that paragraph in a story or something.
*hugs Trip* :)
*hugs Lantern* Sure. :)
I tried to take Adra off, though, and that apparently didn't work . . .
Everyone hates group mail so much. XD
And - you can be included if you want. :) I'm not sure where that thought was going. I followed up up with another sentence, but that was going off track so I deleted it, and now I've forgotten what was what.
#ChaseForBookNine
@Taia: Hi. :) :) Thanks. :)
Yayyy people know what I mean. :)
Okay. So I can make people know what I'm on about when I'm typing. Now I have to do it with talking. XD
(Talking is so much harder.)
#ChaseForBookNine
I said "No thank you, try again next week."
Star, one thing, NEVER, stop talking. It's too enjoyable. Unless you want to. Or um... Lost my train of thought *DAMN YOU RADIO 4* *Runs away*
@Trip: Good reply. XD
And - thanks. :) :) I do adore talking. But I reckon it annoys people, so I'm trying to stop doing it so much. *shrugs*
I swear my thought trains run away from me sometimes. :P It's not simply attempting to keep an eye on them, it's a full-on race around the garden, and by then the thought train you'd previously neatly stacked and parked has run off as well and you're totally lost.
#ChaseForBookNine
Oh Trip- *explodes England*
*hugs FabI*
@Zaf: Good luck with that?
*hugs Star*
Don't be sorry - If you need to talk, talk - I don't mind. :)
But - I guess you could still headphones & listen until you feel OK again, wherever you are, if you want/needed to. But you're probably aware of that already, so, uh... *frowns*
My point is.. . I hope you're feeling better soon. *nods* I think that's mostly right. :)
#ChaseForBOok9
@Taia: *hugs* :) Thanks.
Nah. If I need to talk, I should really email myself and stop wasting comment space. :P
Actually, I'll do that now.
Stop spamming you all. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
Nuu
@Star: Talking IS harder. I think my hands understand my head better than my voice does. :P
@Trip: *laughs* That's great. xD
*steps across the England/Wales border, and rebuilds England with Lego bricks*
#ChaseForBook9
Thank you Taia.
(I have a LOT of Lego, apparently. :P) ^^
@Star: *hugs back*
Fair enough -- But sometimes talking to people in particular can be more helpful, I think?
idk. Whatever works for you. :)
#ChaseForBook9
OH MY GOSH GUYS I CAN TYPE WITH MY EYES CLOSED. P_O
I'm typing this withj mu eues closed.
Okay, it was working beyyer a secon dagho.
And occasionally I syaty typing the wtong word and don't mknow where I am and I have to opne my eues and look around.
Hey . . . whne my thoguhts wnader off track, it's actiually easier to fond the keyes. When they're thinking about somethong else.
It's sytange, really . . . they almost seem to glow, in my mind. They're there, obvious. It's like when I start playing Minesweeper in my head. And I can imagine the numbers and the sweaures and the glafs and I stare at the imaginary screen and I just tap - mnentally - the swiuares I need to , and fugure out what the numbers night be, and I just . . . I'm playing it in my head, and it's weird, you know. Idk. Maube I'm a little addicted to that game. :P
Damn. O_O I wish I'd known I could type wothj my eyes closed before. I think I type as well with my eyes closed as some of us do with our eyes open. :P
#ChaseFOrBookNine
OB
Haha. XD I could not type 'squares' at all there. Too many unfamiliar letters. :P
@Taia: I know what you mean. :P That's why - *closes eyes, just because* That's why I suppose I type to myself like . . .
Actuallyu, I email myseldf like I'm writing a diary.
It's kind of in first person, and then I syaty spealing to myself and it's in second person.
It's quite helpful, really.
Idk, I think when my eyes are closed my brain just sort of forgeys it's foing something and ti just syatys abandoning the keyboard and drifting off.
I'm not that greay at typing with my eyes closed. :P But I'm vetter than I used to be.
Hmm.
#ChaseForBookNine
*start
*starts
*speaking
Haha. XD I really do do as well as some of us do with our eues open.
I FEEL A SENSE OF ACHIEBEMENY.
#ChaseForBookNine
Ah. Yes. Sorry.
How is everybody? :)
#ChaseForBookNine
No problem, Trip.
All of your horizontal surfaces may have hundreds of circular dents in them, but idk, I think Lego might be quicker than using real bricks. :P
Also more fun, I expect.
Though I've never built with real bricks, so how would I know, really?
I used miniature real bricks, with cement that came off again, somehow. But I guess that's different, too.
But- Yeah. :)
@Star: *laughs* Awesome. :)
I can type in the dark - but I don't get any kind of a visual... idk, I think maybe my hands just know where the keys are, vaguely?
It's like... Okay, it's not really like this, but it's a bit like this-- when I type in German, if I'm learning a C/A or something, because typing is quicker than writing, and uses up no paper, and my hands, when I'm typing the GErmanm words, even though I KNOW exactly what to type and how to type it, my hands kind of get so far into the word, and then finish it as an English word, instead. It's like predictive text, like autocorrect, but with my HANDS. It's so strange.
ANd- You can play Minesweeper in your head? O.O
Wow. That is COOL.
#CHaseForBook9
Ugh baby Jade Thirlwall is literally the most adorable thing ever.
I think it depends upon your definition of essay.
I am crap at doing an essay in proper essay structure.
I am rather good at doing a detailed analysis of the whateveritis, even if I do have to descend into metaphors and just ordinary speaking that isn't especially essay but isn't especially anything (I reckon most of the time, when I do that, it's due to pedantricity and having to get things exactly correct.)
I started speaking again . . .
*sighs* :P
I don't know, sometimes I wonder why I post these things (SPEAKING AGAIN DAMMIT.)
I think it's because I want them to be stronger in my mind.
I'm sorry. Ignore me. Shuttingupshtutingupshuttingup.
#ChaseForBookNine
@Star: Hm. That makes sense. Awesome. And good. *nods* :)
And- I was looking at 'achiebemeny' like "omg that is such a cool word, what does that mean? what does that mean? Is it an actual word, or is it a reference to a book or something, like some kind of magic, like the force, 'I feel a sense of magic/achiebemeny', omg it sounds so magical wow" so I Googled it and it just came up with 'Did you mean: Achievement?', and my brain just went "Oh."
Small laughter followed. :P
#ChaseForBook9
*dances across Lego-England* Thanks, Taia! :)
@Taia: OH MY GOSH! *screams*
YOU HAVE MY WORD ASSOCIATIVE THING SORT OF!!!!!
*is extraordinarily pleased about this*
I do that tooooo!
I often type English words rather than German ones, beacsue my brain isn't attuned to the German ones. :P
I often type incorrect words, though. Like bubble instead of better. Placemat instead of phone. It's very frequent. I'm not sure when it started, but I'm sure I didn't used to do it. When I was in year seven, I first noticed myself occasionally missed the 's' of the end of plural items, and that was really the first I noticed it, but now I find myself having to look through chapters after writing them, carefully look at every word in assessments because I know I will have written it wrong and then possibly my brain won't pick it up if I read it quickly. Urgh. I called it my brain's autocorrect at one point, and mostly I call it word association, but it's very annoying.
In real life, as well. I will screw up my words them. I will say the wrong word or say them in the wrong order - "use your torch as a phone" . . .
The other day, my friend asked me the time, and I looked at my watch and saw it was ten past, and I said 'twenty past' by accident and didn't realise, and then she said it was too late to get the train when it wasn't, we could have made it, but she thought it was twenty past and I didn't know. :/
Annoying.
(Going into way too much detail, here. :P)
#ChaseForBookNine
@Taia: *laughs* XD
I shall try and use the word achiebemeny, now. :)
(Bad memory for words, though.)
#ChaseForbooknine
*that was a kind of fond laughter, up there. Like when I say something and my friend C laughs because it was such a me thing to say and it makes me feel happy, that.
So it was kind of like a "Taia is so awesome" laugh.
*nods*
#ChaseForBookNine
I hate it when I start writing in the wrong language by accident and then get marked down for it, though.
Urgh.
(Not on anything serious; I would check then. :P)
#ChaseForBookNine
Wish me luck 3 hours of Doctor Who on
*curls in ball* AMY THE 11TH....RORY OMG KILL ME IN BAWLING
I just realised something.
The more I use and rely on this place, the more others will feel comfortable in doing so, so I should actually use it as much as I can. *blinks*
I mean, at some point you'll probably all tell me to shut up and go away because I'm contributing nothing, and then everyone else will go "Oh" and then people will be afraid to use it again, so . . .
*just defeated my argument there*
*oh well*
#ChaseForBookNine
11min into the episode....I'm bawling
@Star: I am GOOD, thank you. :)
BUt my head hurts. But I am good, anyway. :)
How are you doing?
And-- I think I quite like reading your making things stronger in your mind, because reading them, a lot of the time, kind of changes things in my own mind, and I learn/find something that I didn't get before, y'know?
Or it just makes me smile or wow because whatever it is is such a great or amazing thing in itself...
And - you're welcome. :P / :)
And - It's good to see that I'm not alone in it, then. :)
I don't think I type words incorrectly THAT much, and I catch them so quick if I do that I don't really notice (like I said, my hands understand my head better than my voice does), but I DEFINITELY do that while talking. I know exactly what I want to say, but my mouth says it in the wrong order, or with words or letters that my brain didn't tell it to. Or I just stutter and have to stop and kind of glare inwardly at myself while simultaneously laughing outward, also at myself, in order to kind of show that I'm OK even though I'm sort of glaring at myself and unable to speak and then I kind of just semi-choke and then I can say whatever I was going to say, fine. :)
I think I'm going off track now, but I found an English Language homework-exam-practice-thing from last year, which was writing a speech to primary school kids who'd be coming to secondary school soon, and the comment my teacher left at the bottom said it was good, but that "expression was awkward in places", and one of the examples she'd circled was "increased population".
And I was looking at it, thinking and kind of confused because that's just the way my brain does that, kind of? If I'm talking - and I was writing as if I was talking because it was a SPEECH - I use terminology that's not how you might expect a person would say something? I don't say, "because there's more people", I say "because of the increased population", and I think it's to do with that my mouth kind of knows what it's saying better if it can use these particular terminologies, rather than what would just be the first sensible thing to say.
And the way the I talk IS awkward and dis-coordinated and you can probably see that in my typing, a lot of the time. BUt I know what's going on and my voice can say that and know that, kind of.
idk.
I'm not sure that was relevant, but it just came to mind while I was typing about how I talk, and whatnot.
But yeah. :)
And- I'll try to remember achiebemeny, too. xP
ANd- *nods* I got that. :)
But, idk, your explaining your laugh kind of mind it feel even better somehow and my eyes are smiling and :) :) thank you. :)

#ChaseForBook9
Guys...Moffat is freakin cruel. I'm bawling...the Doctor was dead killed in the regeneration cycle and they burned his body
Hello.
You know what?
I don't think you should write an essay to get high marks.
I think you should write an essay to write a fucking good piece of writing.
And even if I get a D on this essay . . . then okay, maybe that would be embarrassing and would really suck, because I've always been really good at English, but if I write the best piece of writing I can, and maybe it's not good as an essay, but as a sort-of-essay-like piece of writing that discusses stuff it's ace, then I should be happy with that, and in terms of life experience, I would gain more from writing that. *nods*
(I did this with my descriptive writing, though. I wrote a really good piece of writing, I was proud of it and I discovered some good things about life along the way, and Sir gave me an A*. Then it got moderated and went down to an A because the moderator said I had lost focus.
I was incredibly upset over that. I'd still got a high A, so I should have been happy, and I'd just stuffed up two languages assessments earlier that week and had just been like "Oh well. Life is life. I'll do better next time", but I was so upset. I spent ages just sitting there ranting in Python in the back of my book and trying not to cry or start hitting things.
You know what I think she thought?
She thought I'd got more into describing the metaphors than describing the actual place.
I have great problems with getting too caught up in metaphors.
It's a thing I frequently do.
So obviously, when writing an assessed piece, you deliberately attempt NOT to repeat your frequent mistakes, so I did actually actively put energy into keeping sight of what I was actually describing. I still did it in a highly metaphorical way, but I really loved the tone of the whole thing, and like I said, I said cool things in it.
When I stuffed up my languages assessments, it was ME that had stuffed up, so I didn't mind, because I deserved what I got, yeah?
I felt that her comment saying I had lost focus was totally undeserved and so I got rather emotional about that.
So maybe I should just write a bad essay. I'd be happier that way.
But I'd rather write a good piece of writing that I was actually proud of.
*not really sure where I went here*
#ChaseForBookNine
*made
@Star: I've written German in my Welsh lessons. BUt I think a lot of people will do that - I think German is just closer to English, and also taught better, here, than Welsh is. The Welsh teachers get SLIGHTLY annoyed with it, though, sometimes. :P
*hugs Zaffy* Good luck.
@Star: Speaking for myself, I don't think I'd ever tell you to shut up.
ANd, I still think type wherever you most want to, at that time?
But I've already said that, so, yeah. :P ^^
#ChaseForBook9
@Taia: I hope your head is better soon. :)
My head hurts too, but only very slightly, so it's barely noticeable really.
Well, it's good to know I'm not alone. :)
And you would say 'increased population'. *rolls eyes at teacher*
There's just some things you just say, and I'm not really sure if I can find an example, but sometimes you just say things, and . . . Idk, I think I shall just agree with you here. :P
And - thank you. :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) About saying you like reading them, I mean. Sometimes they are good to read. Sometimes they're just pointless (I just typed 'jure' there. 'Jure' isn't even a word. :P Wth.)
. . .
OH GOSH I FORGOT WHAT I WAS SAYING.
. . . Sometimes they're good to read, but you have people who just ignore them *points to Zaf*, and when I'm speaking in real life, it's even harder to comprehend because you said your hands understood your brain better than your mouth? Ditto. And you can't look back at what you've written, so . . *shrugs*
Plus it depends on the type of person you are, and whether you like that stuff.
Bbs, dinner.
#ChaseForBookNine
Thanks, Taia. :) :)
*hugs*
*temporarily disappears*
#ChaseForBookNine
How is everyone?
* that 'will' in 'people will do that' was not supposed to be there. No 'will'. No 'will' at all.
@Zaf: They did? o0
I had no idea. :P
Hey Dragona! How're you? :)
@Star: I think I agree. If you're going to spend your time, then make it something that you actually want to do, and/or is useful.
When I had to write a review of a book/CD/theatre performance, again as English LAng. exam prep, I decided to put it to my use. ANd over the course of DAYS I just spilled out random thoughts about MCS's most recent album, 'Go', in a trACK-by-track format as well as in general, and with relation to previous works of theirs, and my iPod contains a tonne of quotations and thoughts and notes on what's going on in these songs and in real-time and what things mean and interpretations. And I have sheets of paper with all these concepts and analogies.
And then I came up with my Shakespeare analogy when I listened to Low's "THe Invisible Way', and I started scribbling about that instead.
And then I went back to MCS because I was more confident with my Motion City knowledge and on the night before it was due in I just typed the thing up and had to delete my reviewing of several songs and it was still 2 or 3 times as long as it should have been, but I got something out of it, and I learned a lot.
And to me that was so much better than if I'd just gone "hwat was the last book I read? I'll just say a bit of what that's about. Who cares?" y'know?
And I think I got distracted there, but my point is my agreement in that sense. *nods*
And I also agree with you over the moderator - especially because I think that you showed me a little bit of it, the beginning, or at least a practice, and it was so good, and I can see where the explaining metaphors thing is coming from, but I think that a different writing style is never wrong - Like if somebody wrote their C/A as Patrick Ness wrote Chaos Walking, with Todd's particular grammar and vocab and spelling, I think that an examiner would not GET that it's a deliberate thing, because they don't KNOW you, and they don't know that that's what you're doing and why and how it's not wrong it's just different.
And yeah.
And I've gotta go. But I'll probably be back pretty soon. Probably.
#ChaseForBook9
Hey Taia. I'm fine, you? And kk, bye!
I do read!!!
And yes....I'm slightly shaking crying i think I just saw my first Cyberman
@Zaf: There's a difference between reading and paying attention. But I don't mind, or I'd've said. :) :)
I have returned, btw. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Star, I just realised - because of my picture/title I'd make one hell of a bad guy for RPs.
@Dragona: Probably, yeah. :)
(Actually, it depends on your classification of 'bad guys'. I don't believe there are 'bad guys' and 'good guys', not really.)
Has anybody here read the Inkheart trilogy?
Because I'd like to have a mini rant about a character, but unless anyone's read it I won't. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
Ooook Cybermen....
I've read the first one, Star. And yeah well... in this case, bad guy is "wants to kill everyone and harvest them".
Did you end up trying out my audio clip?
@Dragona: *nods* But if people are people, they always have good inside them, no matter how bad they are (and vice versa.)
And if they're not people, they don't count as bad guys. :P That's like calling a hurricane a bad guy. It's a nice metaphor, but not exactly fitting as a literal term.
I didn't; I can do now, though.
And, okay then.
Basta's OCD.
He is.
He's so fixated about superstition, it actually hinders him. And with OCD people . . . they often have one thing that is a major problem, but then also more minro things that they don't really think much about, and when Dustfinger was in Basta's house, he noticed how clean it was.
Basta's OCD.
And it's so sad, because obviously he's having to deal with this condition, and nobody will ever help him out because of the position he's in, and they just laugh at him and tease him and tell him he's pathetic and no one will realise he has an actual condition here.
And I just feel so sorry for Basta, because the only reason he's following Capricorn was because he was so insecure when he was younger and he needed to attach himself to something, but the person he hero-worships despises him, and it can't be hard, living with that.
I don't know whether the author actually knew he was OCD and maybe they just put it in but didn't make it obvious, or maybe they never realised, but . . . idk, in terms of how good the story is, I love that he is, you know. And I love how it says things like that people can have these problems and the world can just never notice, and maybe you never look for things like that, but they're there, and it also helps you empathise with him, and . . . idk. Plus it really helps the 'good guys' get away with stuff. XD
It must have got worse over time, his OCD. Because it couldn't have always been that bad, or people would have outsmarted him a lot more a lot earlier.
Fantastic books, the Inkheart trilogy. :)

The first one was good, but I never read the second.
Aww god damn it...
Wait I'll change the link.
Hullo!!!!!!!! How are you all???
Hi...?
Hey Moss! *hugs* How are you?
Gtg, the Voice! D:
(I'd rather stay here, actually, but . . . :P)
I think the second and third books are the best. :)
*waves to Rhydian and Moss*
*disappears*
(I'll look at the link when I get back, Dragona. :))
#ChaseForBookNine
Right. Try now. Wait
http://www.zedge.net/ringtone/1288880/masseffect-sovereign/
There's the link.
Hi Starry! Okie dokie then, Bye! *waves*
Hi Rhydian [hugs back] I'm good, finished most of my to do list, though I still have to go chair-shopping sometime today.
You?
[waves to Starararararar]
Hi Dragona.
Can't look at the link right now, sorry.
I'm good Moss :)
Back!
Thanks, Star. :)
And thanks also for the confirmation that I say things how I do. (I'm not entirely sure I said that as I actually mean that, kind of, but I don't have a better phrasing :P ) :)
And, :) :)
I'm good, thanks Dragona! :) ^^
@Star: I haven't read it. But I haven't read most things.
(... Imagine how many books there must be in the world. Holy cats. I can't breathe. I need to read books. I need to read books.)
(If we go on holiday this year, which we might, but also might not, because we don't usually, which works as a reason for both possibilities, then I am just going to buy so many books and I will not bother packing clothes and just bring a week's worth of books with me and read them all and asdfghjcpkl.)
(which I guess isn't relevant to you guys, but I've already typed it now, so, meh. :P )
#ChaseForBook9
TAIA! *tacklehugs* Haven't seen you in AGES!! How are ya?
Taia could you look at my audio clip on my profile? It's awesome. :)
Bye Star! Have fun! :)
Hey Fabi! *hugs* :)
Rhydian! Hey! *hugs* :)
I might be a little distant.
Or suddenly become distant.
Or something.
#CHaseForBook9
It lasts twenty eight seconds. So it isn't long lol.
Hi Taia. [hugs]
I'll definitely be distant, animating.
@Rhydian: *is tacklehugged/hugs back* I know! It's been time!
I think I've been busy with exams, from December to the end of January, which might contribute. I don't think I've been on a lot since then, until quite recently, I think?
But I'm doing good! :)
How about you?
@Dragona: Sure. :)
#ChaseForBook9
_*explodes*
I'm grand thanks! I've had a few mock exams :( and I've got another Monday. Not looking forward to it
Hello Zaf,
Hey ZaffY!
Hai there! Sorry wbd still watching Doctor Who. 3 straight hours of it on BBC America, first hour it took 10mkin into the episode before Moffat had me bawling my eyes out
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Eo6s_B4i_0&feature=c4-overview&list=UUfVEUnU9KU6Q3C0aHIB3xQg
OMGG this is perfect!
*hands Zaf a cookie* How's Doctorrr Who going?
Alright, Fabi. :)
@Dragona: It sounds pretty cool. :) WHat is it? :P
@Rhydian: Aw. :( I hope they've gone alright so far. Which subject's Monday's for?
I've got half-term next week, so I get to kind of rest and school-detox. :P
But I should probably be doing revision, this week. Which I probably will. When I feel like it. :P
#ChaseForBook9
Painful. Very painful
@Rhydian: :)
@Zaf: Aw. :P
#ChaseForBook9
IT's a History Mock! And it's like Hitler/WW2 stuff!! I just hate/cba with that part of history! So that makes it worse...I actually haven't done much revision...That's quite bad, isn't it? I did a lot today though, and I plan on doing more tommorrow
Taia, it's... a little hard to explain. The main enemy in the first Mass Effect game. Who is a Reaper. And yeah he kills quite a lot of people under the disguise of just a normal ship, who is captained by a Spectre who is indoctrinated and then he wants to bring the rest of the Reaper fleets back. He fails, and is destroyed, but the effects of ONE Reaper and a small fleet of Geth ships who were under his control is felt up to four years later. His name is Sovereign.
I have finished the head.
Yay.
A lot more to go, though.
@Rhydian: Aw, yeah, I get you. :( And, I suppose that, even though it's probably useful to do work for the mocks, because it gives you a better knowledge of where you are at, and I guess you get more out of it, at the end of the day, it won't be the end of the world if you don't do that well, or didn't revise, or whatever, because it's only a mock, right?
Good luck with it, anyway. :)
@Dragona: Oh, right - cool. :) ^^
#ChaseForBook9
Yeah, good point :) and cheers! Probably gonna need it! Tbh I can't wait till we change subjects, the Hitler part of history is just really depressing.
Gtg, bye.
Bye Moss! *waves*
@Fabi: Yay!
@Rhydian: *nods* I know whatcha mean. I guess that can be a similar case with any subject, though. Some parts are more preferable than others, right? :)
Bye Fabi! *hugs*
Memory will rust and erode into lists
Of all that you gave me:
A blanket, some matches, this pain in my chest,
The best parts of lonely
Duct-tape, and soldered wires,
New words for old desires
And every birthday card I threw away
#ChaseForBook9
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUFvb_FfdjY

Gtg now. BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bye Rhydian! It was good to see you! :)
#CHaseForBook9
Last hour of Doctor Who...
@Zaf: Is that more parts good or bad? :P
wbd. There's this one barre chord shape and I can't reach the 4th fret and barre the 1st at the same time and it's very frustrating. D: / :P
#ChaseForBook9
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUFvb_FfdjY
Its a 2 part episde and then the one now is a stand alone
Ugh I'm scared shitless
@Dragona: I'd watch it, but I'm stuck trying to work out this chord. :P ^^
@Zaf: Aw. ^^
Hm. I've sort of cheated my way out of that by moving the 1sts to 6ths on the lower strings, and then alternating between 6th and 4th on the D-string, which is awkward, but at least I can reach it, until I work out the barre thing... Still distant, though.
#ChaseForBook9
Hi Amethyst! *waves* :)
Congratulations on first. :) ^^
#ChaseForBook9
Hai Amethyst
Taia, kk. It's really good, though. ^^
Hey everyone! :) Anything interesting happening? I'm so bored...
It's the depressing part of history that is my favourite, I think. :)
It's not that I like sitting there crying in lessons, it's just that it feels much better to learn about stuff like that, and I'd rather learn about things like that than discuss working opportunities in WW1.
(Plus, we have way too much preparation time for that. I could have pretty much written the essay about three weeks ago, but nope. Still preparing.)
(Can't we have some of the history time to do English?)
(I find it hard enough to write PEEAL paragraphs anyway without being told to write them in six minutes at the end of the lesson. Like I said, I have issues with structure, I think. I'm ranting again, but I'm not wasting comments because this is going to be posted anyway, but what you have to do when you're analysing and detailing and that is go into that part of your brain, and for me, that part of my brain works in formless structureless mush out of what is probably habit, so 'analysis' and 'structure' are pretty much opposites, I think.
*nods slowly*)
(But you know . . . when I think something hard, I just sit there and complain about it. I don't think that can be good in any way.)
(I think I like complaining.)
(Hmm. If you're trying to stop complaining, are you allowed to complain about how much you complain? Because surely if you complain about it, you go over and over it in your mind, so then you realise how sucky your complaining is so it actually leads to less complaining? Did that sentence make sense?)
#ChaseForBooknine
*when I FIND something hard
Hey, Amethyst. :)
You're bored? Make something for somebody. :) It's fun and when you give it to them it feels really good so basically you have fun and then get a reward at the end of it and it just basically rocks.
#ChaseForBookNine
Star, do you have time to watch this?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUFvb_FfdjY
BOO...!
Moods where you talk . . . I don't know, they're bad, because you become very self-centred and less focused on other people, and they're not particularly happy, and you just end up annoying people and then you're just left with the feeling that you've annoyed people, but despite the fact that they aren't really good, I think I love them anyway, because you just learn so much.
I'm not really sure how you can learn things from nobody, but you can. You talk/think (I talk to think) and then you just discover things.
Idk.
And I suppose that so ace that part of it has to be bad, so that's why the mood isn't exactly happy.
Mmh.
(Plus I'm still not very people-friendly atm. :P You know those moods where you just can't be bothered to spend all that energy putting up that front of being nice and all participative and interested? And you feel it's fair because they aren't putting up that front for you, but it's not really fair because you're just wasting comments talking about nothing and that doesn't deserve any attention, does it? No. And you have to keep telling yourself it doesn't, otherwise you get caught in the trap of thinking it does. *nods*
I don't really know exactly how it happens, this talking-thinking thing. I don't know, you just look up and you're somewhere else. It's like when you're procrastinating and then you tell yourself off and then you're halfway across the room thinking about something else and you sort of frown and wonder how you got there.
And that's what I mean. You just sort of wander off and then -
Mmh.
*stops talking*
If I'm annoying you, though, you can just skip my comments. Seriously.
I don't like to delete it, though; I don't like deletion. It feels like what you've created is just gone and you don't want that to happen because there had to be something of worth there, somewhere. I'm bad at deleting writing, too. :P)
#ChaseForBookNine
Hey Jubi and Doctor Who is over in like 5min
I watched it, Dragona. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
STAR!! ZAF!! DRAGONA!!! AMETHYST!!! *Supermegatacklehugsofdoom*
HAI
I totally know what you mean, Star *nods*
Hi Jubilance! How are you?
HAI! I'M GOOD!
And you can just call me Jubi if you want :3
@Jubi: That was sarcasm, left? :P
#ChaseForBookNine
JUBI! *tacklehugs* Hi! :)
How are you doing?
@Star: Maybe that learning without other people..
Maybe that's to do with the idea that you're not actually gaining any new data, so to speak? Like, you're putting things together to gain new information, but not necessarily actually putting anything new in.
Like, idk. Take a piece of paper. You fold it one way, you get a crane. You fold it another way, you get a flower. Fold it a third way, and you get a water bomb.
It's still the same piece of paper - you haven't added anything to it, you've just rearranged it. And you got something new OUT of it, without putting anything new in, as such.
So, it's almost like, when you think/talk, your mind is folding your thoughts, and depending on how it folds them, you end up with all this new information, derived from the same original data.
idk. That's just my thought on that. ^^
