NO CLASSES TOMORROW~ WOOT WOOT!!! X ]
I love Independent Learning Day. 3-day weekend, anyone? ; ]

I've decided to post the essay I've written for English Lit. class today,
where we used an inspirational quote from the novel, Jonathan Livingston Seagull.

Somehow, during the writing process it got a little bit more personal than expected,
but what the ( Read more... )

So, I wanted to post a comment as soon as I read this. But yes, I have a thing with commenting first. Makes me embarrassed.XD Next time, maybe I'll just get on with it. Hahahaha!

But, like mikudaisuki said, that was really amazing. The way you compared things with other things was really very smart! And I especially liked this: "You become a magician, a conjurer, as you create a facade out of what seems to be pieces of who you once were... You're left with a cheap imitation in a place where you will look at yourself and not recognize what you see. " because I could relate to that. And everything else you wrote, for that matter. I don't know, but somehow, when I was reading this, I felt I was reading about myself. Hahahaha! Best friend who's gone and Tupperware friends and all.

Aaah, reading that, you're really lucky! I'm still stuck with Tupperware friends. Or maybe that's just me. *shrugs* People need to share their lives with each other, not just share stories and experiences, to become real friends. So far, I haven't met much of ( ... )

As my friend once told me, distance isn't a problem, it's just a factor. Friends who can easily glue you together are just there, somehow. I am so lucky that I found mine.

Thanks so much, love your comments! You DO have eloquent words. If you can make my cry from what you write, you're pretty much damn good. <3

I think I have a hit-or-miss relationship with writing. Sometimes, I'd get a feeling that what I've written is good, but lots of people find faults in it. And then there are times when I don't care about what other people say and just post stuff even when I feel that it's bad, and they'd say I did a good job. And, I can't just write. Sometimes (or most of the time), I need to be really depressed to write. Hahahahaha! Weird, huh? I find inspiration when I'm sad.XD And, if I am eloquent, then I think I'm more eloquent at night (or very early morning). All of Tightrope's chapters were finished at 1AM. Hahahaha!

And yeah, I guess you're right with the distance thing. Because even when we don't see each other, when we do, it's like old times again. *sigh* I hope I get to see them again.

Anyway! I'm still waiting for your Suju fics!XD

I KNOW. I seriously have this sorta Angsty!Heechul centric fic which would have revolved around him at the time when SuJuM just came back... Been writing stuff down, can't really do a multi-chap so I'd settle for something like The Heechul drabble series or something X ]

I promise, I'll get to it ASAP. Have got stuff written down and hopefully, inspiration will continue to strike even though broken!Hanchul is far from true (THEY ARE CLOSER THAN EVERR, SUPER SHOW!)

I love Tightrope. It gives me shivers because it's really well written. XD Can't wait for the next chap of that.

She found her own form of thread and paste in friends with plastic smiles and Tupperware hearts.

I may not be perfect, the stitches may not be straight and the glue will still be a little messy, but I have the perfect sealant: friends who have warm eyes and beautiful hearts without a hint of plastic.

Wow you got me thinking about things when I was reading this. Heh, I'm trying very hard to think of something to say about your essay (besides just quoting from it), but at the same time, I'm also thinking of everything you wrote and trying to connect them together...with my some of my own experiences. I thought you wrote it really well, and especially your introduction*-- It was nicely done. <3

XD *I always have troubles with those.

Thank you very much for that sweet comment. I feel happier, comments make me happy. X ]

Introductions are fun to make, it's like nice prologue to a story. You'll eventually get the hang of it, I'm sure. ; ]

Wow, Dana. Just... Wow.

You got me thinking here, too... I'm one of those Tupperware friends too, you know. I admit that. I may be all \:DDDD/ on the outside, but I really just may be harboring some hatred for some people who think I'm their friend.

And dslfjsdlkf; I know how it affects others.

But that aside, I love the way you put those ideas together. I love how you were able to relate even the simple yet seemingly overlooked points of life to your own life. (Well, everyone goes through this. They just don't notice that they're doing the same thing to others. dfkhsjl;)

So.. Yes. Mme. Pepito will be impressed, yes? :)
Good work.
Read mine too, if I ever post it here.

Love you lots ♥

THANKS A LOT JINNIE I LOVE YA~~ Used the Yama pic just for you! ♥<3

You're not a Tupperware friend to me Jinnie, you're one of the warmest ones with the most beautiful kind of heart that most people don't understand.

Thanks a lot, I was seriously hesitant to post this, even scared kay what if Mme. Pepito thought something was wrong with me!? LOL. So true on that point though, how everyone goes through it.

Hopefully, she won't be freaked out haha. X ]
I PLAN to read yours.
Yah, you gotta post it. XD

Love you lots and lots! <3♥

I''m quite conscious over the other comments...They're so long!!!!! XD
It's good you've found true friends now. Talking, laughing and being with friends are just one of the few things on how to cope up with stress so you won't go crazy and end up in the psyche ward. Which reminds me, there's a theresian daw that ended up in the psyche ward back then~ but I'm not sure if it's true.
