Don't you hate the realization that you've just spent at least three or four hours reading the most awful and ridiculous story possible, yet still continue to read it...
I was on siye deperately looking for a story, but I find that I generally don't like that site, I mean initially I was in on the hp boards way back when fanfiction for hp started- then the boards started going bad so I moved on to siye which the same thing began to happen so I left it and I haven't been on in ages. Out of curiousity today I decided to head over there and check out a couple of stories since I know the main characters will be the two I love...bad idea.
I checked out the best overall story, 82 long chapters, it had something like 2099 reviews- I mean I figured it must be good. So I set off to read it. It was horrible from the offset- I mean the characterization was completely off, the story completely bogus- everything about it was horrific- but I said to myself, Gillian, with that many reviews you must be missing something. So I figured the author must eventually improve her writing style...five chapters in and about a gazillion hours later I stopped myself and journeyed on to the most recent chapter- and its still the same quaility as the beginning chapters. I don't understand how it can have won and have so many reviews when it is clearly- I don't mean to be harsh- unworthy.
On other news I got a haircut today and decided to be loose with it and not get all uptight about it like I usually do. I told the lady to cut it much to short- shoulder length- but then my curls make it even shorter and it makes me look young. As a 17 year old who everyone thinks is 15 as it is- this is not a good thing. I will never wear it down again. But I also got a really nice retro hairband for when I do put it up- my sole consolation.
