I miss my WdC friends and family. I miss logging on regularly to shoot feces with odd companions armed only with their wits. I miss...I miss this place.
I'm really feeling Old Time Radio right now. Too bad I couldn't do this at a reasonable time of day.
I've had a few crises and victories in the last few months. Suffice to say, I've made it out alive...for now. Glad to be back. Let's hope I can make it last.
I'm back! I'm sorry about my absence: I kept looking, but I forgot which castle was yours. Then I hit a brambly hedge and tore my knit vest. I just couldn't face you without my shining knit vest. It would have been shameful.
Hey, SS! I was sending my last e-mail, and I realized something: I have no idea what kinds of classes you are taking or what you like to learn about. I know you're into physics, which could have you wind up an engineer. So are you going into engineering?
Let's see, this semester I'm taking computational physics, quantum mechanics, screenwriting, and honors physics research.
I might go into engineering, but I'm not certain. I'm also interested in special effects and the like. I don't really know what I want to do, but I figured engineering would provide me with a diverse enough skill set to allow my to pursue whatever I wish in the future.
Ah, the "I don't know, but for now I'm going to absolutely dedicate myself to the hardest damn class I can find" route. I must say, I don't see that too often. Most students are like, "I don't know, but I'm taking sociology and history for now. I think I'm hoping to become a teacher. But you know, I'm no good at math."
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Vampires. I need them.
Says who?!
I miss my WdC friends. It's just hard to be on here reliably when I'm drowning in depression.
What? Depression? Any cause, or do you just go through random, unexplained periods of depression?
It's not really random. I've been depressed going on three years now. It's just this year has been the worst. I try not to talk about it because I don't want to be a bother, but it just seems to slip out sometimes. Also, I think my reason is fairly standard in the world of the depressed. I hate myself. That's about it.
I wish I could help you.
Happy Thanksgiving! Eat! Drink! Be merry!
Craaaaaaazy. My account birthday is today. So much has happened since boredom and an attempt to mentally escape from the heated prison of a small apartment in Pennsylvania prompted me to open an account. And I find that after two years of writing here, words, yet again, fail me.
Wow. What were you researching? Doesn't physics happen everywhere?
By that I mean, why do you have to go to Germany in order to research this stuff?
We were looking at x-ray spectroscopy of aqueous salt solutions. Basically, we shot x-rays at salt water. It was a blast. -_-

It happened in Germany because I wanted to travel abroad, and I got a scholarship to do it with this program. Why not?
Hey, I'm going to be doing a lot of homework and studying for tests and stuff. I won't be able to send you e-mails or reviews for a little while. Sorry.
No problem. I'm in the same place and about to lose my mind. Nope. Nevermind. It's already gone.

Thanks for letting me know, though. At least I don't have to wonder if you're shunning me. I'm still mad at you for that, btw.
After you wish upon a start, be quick to look away. Otherwise, you may be forced to witness the inky, black emptiness of the universe swallowing your dreams.
So I finally read Abe Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Good recommendation. It took me one day to get through the entire thing, and it was a pretty good read. The last few chapters could have been better, but other than that, it was really fun.
P.S. Alright, SS. I was wrong: Vampires can be spectacular.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. I am also glad you came to see the light, or the dark. Now, I just have to make MY story good enough to convince people like YOU that vampires are awesome. I guess I should try to focus more on the vampire bit, eh?
Yeah, possibly. More on the vampire, more on the combat skills of a vampire. And also you might consider giving Ava wicked vampire-hunting abilities.

Do note however, that Abe Lincoln: Vampire Hunter was marketed more toward male readers than female. And so will your book if you emphasize the combat aspect of Vampires.

Basically: write what you yourself would read.
I can't believe it. America is in danger of losing a snack cake, and suddenly celebrities, talk shows and radio stations are issuing a call to arms, but we couldn't have been bothered earlier to contribute to a cause like fighting human trafficking. Our comfy way of life is in peril because we suddenly have one less item to shove down our throats, but never mind starving children. America, I am disappoint.

I agree with you on everything so far. Why, I wonder if one child goes to bed hungry doesn't the President call an immediate press conference. I don't understand this world. Suffering teaches compassion...
There comes a time when the hollow emptiness changes. The piercing is sharper, and more defined. The pain, while still a general black hole in your chest, is also focused at certain points. And when this time comes, one is forced to call it by a name, loneliness. No matter what you want to tell yourself or believe, the words "I miss you," solve nothing. Even so, I say it again. I miss you.
