    Miraculous Prompts

    By Valkyrie

    The saying "truth is stranger than fiction" exists for a reason - sometimes what happens in real life is so far outside the realm of possibility that if written in a piece of fiction, readers would doubt its veracity.  I recently experienced such a moment when a family member of mine had a medical episode that should, by all accounts, have left them dead.  It still boggles my mind when I think about it.  90% of people who have this condition die from it, with most of them not even making it to t

Relationships - nothing stranger

I've often thought that therapy would be wonderful. To be able to sit down and spout about all the angsty bollocks I'm going through to a total stranger ... then I'd guess you're told you need to go back, and back, and then it becomes addictive, and you need your therapy hit.   Anyhow, I've never been (except to a child psychologist, and "they're different dear"). Can't afford it for one, and I have here. My GA blog. The bestest thing since sliced bread.   So. On to relationships, and more p

A Shadow of My Former Self

Jonathan has abandoned me. After a week of not talking, I emailed him this:   ---------------------------------------------- I always wondered what I would say to my best friend when I graduated high school. I mean I figured, maybe I could somehow turn it into a happy thing

Tempting Fate

The one thing I should have learned from my dad is never to tempt Fate. It was probably one of the basic rules of his life, the one that formed the core of who he was. If he said anything pleasant about the future, such as,

disobeying my mother

As much as I love the woman, my mother is crazy. When she found out that I had been coming to this site, she directly forbade it. Oh well. That was like three months ago, and I have stayed away as long as I can without exploding. And as I am sure that no one wants slaveboy guts all over them, we had better avoid any exploding.   So hello to everyone! I see that things have changed a lot here at GA. What all have I missed? So far I have met many new people, most importantly Patrick .

What a Borg

I now officially have an unhealthy Star Trek habit. I was having this really nice dream last night, where I was out on a date with some tall, dark, handsome guy, and everything was going great until suddenly...he's assimilated by the Borg! Of course the night before that I dreamed that I was slaying vampires with a machine gun, so who knows. I don't suppose I have any underlying violent feelings or anything.   Yes, I know this entry was completely pointless.

okay....not what I was expecting

Okay, so I learned something this weekend, and I don't think I was supposed to know what i found out. We went camping this weekend and we had a really good time. When it was late last night and my stepmom was asleep, me and my dad stayed up and kept the fire burning so we could visit with eachother. I guess I should stop here and tell everyone that until last week my dad had no idea that I came here and that I was writing. He got on my pc and figured it out. Anyway, he sent me a dumb pm with h

Subtropical Heat & Broken Showerheads

It is hot in Taiwan right now ... although that is what you come to expect from a subtropical island. But I still don't have to like it, and I don't. And the humidity is so high that you feel like you're practically drowning if you go outside. I could handle it when I lived in Florida, because they have this wonderful thing called "central air-conditioning" in the United States. They have it here, but only in the nice, new office buildings. Most apartments only have the window unit kind, and the

Future

People always say, "Don't worry, things will get better...blah blah blah." What these people don't understand is the future is just that the future. Not predictable, not controlable (although I've tried)....   Lately, my depression is getting worse. Jonathan has purposely not talked to me in three days--even though he had plenty of opportunities today and I txted him and KNOW for a fact that he has his cell phone, because I saw him with it today.   The Situation with Max just gets worse.

shellshocked

Two days ago the guy I love said to me "When I first saw you I fell in love with you, but now we're such good friends I don't really fancy you anymore." We've had a relationship that has passed through seduction (he's 2 years older than I am and I was naieve), love, living together, living apart, and throughout it all we've had a solid friendship that just got better and better until yesterday. My heart is in so many pieces it feels unrepairable. I just don't know what to do. During rehears

Annoyed

I do not appreciate being woken up. Ever. Under any circumstances. I mean, even if it was 2 pm, I haven't slept worth a crap in days and I didn't go to bed till after the sun had come up. But, there I am, actually asleep, and I slowly become aware that someone is pounding on my door and won't go away. Grr. So I get up, look around in a panic for some clothes, and make it to the door just as it's being unlocked. It's the landlord, and I can't understand a word he says at the best of times, bec

Life, death, mad dogs and kittens...

You know, if you ever want to get a real strong sense of mortality, of that very fine line between life and death, have kittens. One day there is a big, fat, healthy-looking kitten bounding around a room, getting into things, biting your finger

I'll Be Back

Hey everyone!   Well this could be a huge mistake, and there's every chance I won't last a day without compulsively checking for updates, but I've decided that I'd better take a break from GA. Finals start Monday the 8th and end Saturday the 13th (and I do have one on Saturday ), then my move is the following Monday (the 15th). So in that time I need to pack (oh boy do I need to pack :wacko: ), Study for finals, find a new job for when I get there (really stressing out about this!), and t

Life at GA

I've never really been been an active member in a forum/online community before. I don't know how they all work but I know I sure love how it works here at GA. When I was writing my stories, I never had any intention of posting any of them. They were for me, and I didn't know if they were worth it or would even be of any interest to anyone. As I wrote I wasn't sitting there thinking 'hmmm if I do this I'll get a good reaction out of people' I just wrote what came out of my head and never w

personal crap/life sucks

I guess it might be a little weird to talk about personal stuff "in public" like this, but it's not like I have anyone to talk to, especially at 5 in the morning, and I sort of need to get my thoughts in order. So, my apologies to anyone wondering why they should give a crap. But here it goes: my boyfriend just dumped me. I feel like I'm in high school or something, saying that, and the whole thing is just so surreal. We've had one of those relationships where I guess I knew this was coming even

A day without immigrants?

Disclaimer This blog entry is in no way meant to be offensive or racist. I know that we're all decendants of immigrants. It's with that in mind that I write this entry ........     One of the biggest jokes I think I've ever seen is the so called Day Without Immigrants.....I mean, who cares?? In Los Angeles, they were expecting a million people to show up and at the first rally, it was only about 25% of that, and at the second rally, it was even less, and most of the people at the second rall

Rainy Tuesday Morning

I haven't been able to get any writing done over the past few days, because I've been working on a rush translation job for a company. It only pays US$130, but that'll at least pay for about two boxes to be shipped back home. I'm almost finished, and once I'm done, I need to try to get a little further ahead in the chapters for SOOTB. Chapter 16 is taking forever to finish, and I don't know why, because I know exactly how I want it to go, but I can't seem to sit at the computer and type more tha

Life

Hey- Thanks for all the comments guys, I really appriciate it. Max and the girl he likes are getting closer...I have to say, its hard, when I see them together to just pull back and get out of earshot so I'm not being intrusive. \   Today, the girl he likes, who I thought was angry at me, talked to me, (we used to be pretty good friends before Jon pretty much took the friendship), and thought that I would be really pissed at her.   I really want him to be happy, but its hell watching them

Maybe this is why I am what I am...

I'm gonna preface this blog with the fact that I'm sunburned and my dog is shedding her winter coat ALL over my house! Also, I am so ready to start a new week. Last week left me feeling like I couldn't concentrate on any one thought for too long, which for me, is ridiculous since normally I think things to death and then... rethink them. Anyway, on with the blog!   So lemme see... I started out the week editing two amazing new stories for some friends and all I'm gonna say is the stories ar

United 93 - Go see it

I just got back from seeing United 93. It's about the 4th hijacked plane that crashed into the field in PA when the passengers tried to take back over the flight from the muslim terrorists on September 11th.   I strongly recommend that everyone see this movie.   Americans, and the world, seem to have forgotten that there is a large group of people that want to kill us all.
