I FAIL!

[prairie_grass]

Okay no, not completely, but I do kinda suck. I just checked, and I haven't updated Burn to Shine since JANUARY. JANUARY!!! I'm surprised some of the readers haven't sent packs of rabid flying monkeys to me in the mail. (Though I would like to point out that the crazy-rabid-ness of the flying monkeys was a total fabrication, and they were actually quite nice but being forced to do the Wicked Witch's bidding and even gave Dorothy the Golden Cap when she got rid of witch. So there.)

I really am sorry about this. Does anyone remember me saying, oh like, almost _two years ago_ that I didn't want to become one of those writers who took around three years to publish one fanfic? Well.... Yeah.... I'm so screwed, aren't I?

On the positive side, I've finally got out of the Evil Flats of Doom and am now at my Nanna's place. I'm here until I can get a job so that I can afford a new flat where there aren't psycho people. (Have a job interview tomorrow morning, everyone pray for me! ...unless you worship Satan. In which case I'll pass if that's alright, but wish me well, okay?) Then I shall move, again. -_-;; Meanwhile currently I'm in the first week of two weeks of study-break, then I have two exams the following week then two weeks holiday with memei-senpai and simon-kun (san? I'm still soooo bleary about honorifics) which is going to be AWESOME! Then semester two starts which is going to have a double-sized workload. @_@ I am _hoping_, however, that despite more work- being in a regular schedule might help me to be in a good frame of mind for writing. (better than the last 6 months, anyway.)

Thus, for the next two weeks my two priorities are study and writing. I've started in on bts_08 and I am hoping that once I really get writing it will be as fast to write as chapter seven was. Wish me well, everyone.

P.S. *looks around* I think this means my non-hiatus is non-over. >_>; We'll see?

You're alive!?!?! *strangle von strangle heart love squish* KRM missed you heeps and so did Kalana and Sehti and Damatri and the kidnapped Antoine. (Dudette-chan, one of my doctors says I never actually had MPD and it was all in my head.....)

Really have to get off my but and edit that beginning chapter based off my friend's and I's rp with Antoine and the two others

*cracks up at the 'strangle von strangle'*

Yes, my precious, I am alive, if slightly flail-ish and fail-ish, too. *sends hugs to everyone*

Doctors are all dumbasses. Some of my doctors thought that four years of exhaustion so severe I could only be active one hour out of every 24 was all in my head, too. And, I mean.... it's a mental problem... of course it's all in your head, it's just how your brain perceives and deals with the world and life. The only scale would be how much control you have over it which would distinguish it from a disorder or just like, a mental fantasy, but how can a doctor really make statements about where you are on that scale without being inside your head unless it was at either extreme of the scale and massively obvious through your behaviour? Thus, doctors are stupid.

Edit! I want to reeeeeeeead!

PEEJI~~~~~~!!!!

That's why I finish everything before I start posting. Well, part of the why. But hay, it's all good yo.

lmao @ the satan-talk *pets you* simon is a kun, although he hates being called simon-kun or any affix so just call him simon :P are you still going to be at your Nanna's when we come?

♥! I MISS YOU WHEN YOU DON'T UPDATE FOR AGES!!

*pounces and hugs*

Fair enough, but it takes me so damn long to write it would be years before anyone got to read anything, and also, tried that (came to naught) so I wanted to do something differently this time. Getting reviews really does give me mega inspiration x1000000000 to write the next chapter. *shrugs*

XD Ooo, thanks for telling me. How did he not go mad in Japan? Or is it just annoying when it's like, "YOU ARE NOT JAPANESE! WHY ARE YOU SPEAKING CRAP-ASS JAPANESE TO ME YOU WHITE, ENGLISH PANSY!??!" (that's what goes through my head a lot, but my excuse is that I'm speaking it to try and learn it. I'm paying a _lot_ of money to be able to legitimately speak Japanese without being labelled 'random japanophile' even if I am, just a bit...) I have no idea where we'll be, it depends largely on if I get a job this week. However even if I start working this weekend I will probably only be at the looking at flats stage when you guys come down. We can go on missions!

I miss the universe! But you especially! *snuggle hugs* Are you well, my love?

*clings*

yeah. reviews are nice. i feel like writing something right now just coz i'm lonely and a little emowoe and would like some attention.

well i'm not really sure. he's weird. there's nothing wrong with kun. plus i know he calls his best friend kun. well he'd been learning japanese since 3rd form when he went there for 7th form so he could speak some. not that high school japanese'll take you very far. you know japanese people aren't like that :P if you can speak ANY japanese they just complement you on how well you speak it @.@ not that they aren't still thinking you're a gaijin devil :p
ok~

BWAH. POINTS AT JOURNAL. bad, bad exam.

[prairie-grass.livejournal.com]

I do the same thing! Or, at least, when I finish like, one scene I always want to publish it straight away just to get some loooove.

not that they aren't still thinking you're a gaijin devil *cracks up and dies* It's that inner dialogue that bothers me, really.

It's probably better that we're at my Nanna's, anyway, coz then we've got the whole house to ourselves and three mattresses, which is handy.

Oh noes! *races over to give you looooooooooooove*

[mimei.livejournal.com]

:p i don't usually feel that way, just today. but comments are so nice.

XD lol

XD;;; true. but isn't your Nanna there? *confused* iahskjhajsf NOT LONG NOW!!!

:3 *comforts herself with k-drama* :(

[prairie-grass.livejournal.com]

Oh, no. -_-; sorry, confusion understandable, Nanna is in a resthome down the street but doesn't want to sell her house, so it sits around being empty. Until it filled with me and my noise! NOISE NOISE NOISE! Sneaker Pimps and Killing Heidi and Awake. *dances around - mostly to try and keep warm*

I am alllllmost ready to start getting excited. I can't believe how close it is now! I just gotta focus on exams first *tries to study*

Omgosh randomness: My dad just sent me an email asking if I might be interested in going on a Mission (of the traditional Christian sense, not the overused-by-me sense) to Kenya at the end of the year. ................. @_@ Me = W.T.F 0_0

[mimei.livejournal.com]

OH! XD that sounds perfect :3 NOISSSE WTF~~~!

i am excited! but i waited until after exams to get to excited levels. :x *pushes you at books*

wow, Kenya. are you considering it?

[prairie-grass.livejournal.com]

Yes. Only problem is the house is old and breaking. E.g.: neither the washing machine or the dryer work :( The shower door is broken, but the shower itself works okay, so that's not all bad. :/

*currently has her japanese books balanced precariously in front of the computer* XD

Mmmm. I was a little blown away, but I can't think of any really good reason not to go. I dunno, I need to think on it for a while.
