School... School... School...

Well, I'm almost all caught up with school.

I have to do my art history project by Monday, and then I have a test Weds for Psych. Other than that, things have really calmed down. In fact, I think I just have two finals and maybe one more business assignment before my finals, and I'm done for the semester! I honestly did not expect to get on top of things so quickly!

I decided to create a web site for my art history project, so I'll be doing that tonight & tomorrow... compiling my info & such. In fact, I may even have some free time this next week to write!!!

I know- SHOCKING!

Anyways, has anyone noticed anything going on with ff.net? No stories have been updated in days, and I can't log in. I'm assuming that it's a problem they'll be fixing tonight when it's shut down for a few hours? Any clue? Anyone?

By the way, thanks for the responces the other day about the ff.net story alert being down. It was nice to know I wasn't the only one with the problem!

Pepper Dennis?

Hey!

I was just wondering, do any of you watch Pepper Dennis? I watched this weeks after GG, and it was soooo funny! I mean, it's kinda flaky, but it's great.

Anyways, I was just wondering if any of you watch it. It's a cute little show, and it comes on right after GG, so that's convenient.

Ugh

I am beyond pissed. We're talking massively angry here.

I, who recieved all A's & 1 B through out the semester, am failing English.

Why? Well... I didn't do peer editing.

I didn't have others edit my last paper, so I fail.

Forget the fact that I had a 97 in the class.

Apparently, participation counts for a large enough grade to fail me. (Can you here the sarcasm dripping?)

I need to see if there's some sort of regulation for how much a % of grade a teacher can make participation. I am almost finished on my makeup work though.

I'm caught up in everything, including my art history (until Saturday) so I'm just studying for psych and business now.

So, maybe updates will come soon. I don't know. At the moment, I'm torn between sobbing over the injustice of paricipating during English (hello- it's a writing class!) and doing my psych work.

Quick Question

Is anyone else having problems with ff.net? I'm not getting my story alerts like I should be today. Huh. Is anyone else having this problem?

Which Nationality Guy Should You Date?

American

Adam Brody, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp

You're ready for the All-American boy! Maybe he's a blond California surfer, a city boy from the Big Apple, or a charming southern gentleman - you love them all! He'd be the perfect balance of physical and emotional attraction for you, since you need both of these in large amounts! You're equally game for a night of clubbing, a night at home with a movie, or a stroll in the park. But you're also excited for a career and need your independence - an American guy will give you all of this and more!

Take this quiz!

I've got to say, I'm not too surprised by my results. I mean, I am married to a Marine. Ha!

It's Official

Tear. Sob. Sniffle. ASP is gone. I know, I know. It's sad. Horrid. Awful. Cryworthy. Take out stock in Kleenex, cause it's going to skyrocket once everyone hears this news.

They went bye-bye. They ended up deciding not to renew their contract. This royally sucks.

I'm just hoping that the next season will still be great.

Realizations

Well, I just took a break from my art history make up work, and decided to check some spoilers out for GG. I read a Rogan spoiler, and I had a realization.

I Matt (Logan) weren't coming back next year, I wouldn't be watching the show!

I have watched GG since it first came on. I even watched when Jess was on... and let me tell you, I am not a Lit fan!

Somewhere along the way, GG started to lose my interest. Honestly, the only reason I still watch is for the Rogan. Luke & Lorelai used to be funny and witty and great to watch. Now, they're blah!

If Lorelai would just grow her back bone back, then I would love it. I mean, what happened to her?

I'm actually liking season 6 Rory. She's made some mistakes, she's gained some independance, and she's in control of her life now. I think that while the Lore & Rory argument sucked, it also gave the show more depth. After all, Lorelai needed to learn she couldn't run Rory's life, and Rory needed to spread her wings a bit.

But this Luke & Lorelai situation is killing the show. I used to be a L&L fan. Now, I'm rooting for Chris. Let's face it: L & L will end up together. Unfortunatly. But I'm sick of this Lorelai being a door mat for Luke's problems crap. It needs to end!

I'm hoping Rogan pulls through next season, or else it will have, in my opinion, ruined the series. It's had a great run this far, I just hope next season doesn't make the series strike out in the last inning, so to speak.

Ugh... Delay on Fics

Hey everyone. I have some bad news.

Apparently, skipping school makes you get behind. Who'da thunk? Anyways, I'm 8 chapters and 2 essays behind in my Art History class, and I'm an article behind in my research & reporting class, and I have a final project due it a week. I haven't started it yet and I have to go out of town to complete it. I think I'm a paper behind in business, and possibly a test behind too.

I think next week or the week following is finals. (How sad is it that I don't even know?)

I am soooooooo behind in school right now, and I'm not sure how. So, basically the next week or two are gonna suck. I need to get caught up and study for finals before I work on fan fics.

I have at least half a chapter written for the next chapter for most my fics, I just don't have any finished chapters. I'm sorry!

Rory & Logan

I absolutely love Rory & Logan on GG. I may partake in the writing of Trories or PDLD's, or even the occasional Cory, but in all honesty, Rogan is the only way to go for the actual show itself (IMO).

I really think that if the show ends next season then the series will end with them still being together. Look at that caption there.

Love Matures and Choices Become Harder.

That's most definitly about him going to London. I would be seriously worried if I didn't know he was signed to another season. As for my opinions on the show, I think it's good that he has these injuries. I think that it allows Rory to realize how much he means to her, and that she needs him in her life. Without him being injured, I think they would have continued to grow farther and farther apart until they simply dwindled to nothing. Kind of the way Luke & Lorelai are going on the show right now.

Luke is pretty secure in his relationship with Lore. He knows she will be there for him, and that he has nothing to worry about, therefore he puts their relationship on the backburner and allows it to simmer, and concentrates on every other aspect of his life.

That leads me to this question: What in the hell was so stressful about the wedding plans for him? She had it all taken care of! It was all planned out. There was nothing left for him to have to do except show up at the church a few months later... yet he was too stressed. So he pushes her away.

I think the time with Luke out of town is doing Lorelai a lot of good. Ok, so she made a fool of herself at the wedding. And she's having a meltdown of sorts. But that's good. She needs to develop the old Lorelai attitude that we all fell in love with. She's not a push over, so she needs to put him in his place: Either they marry or they don't. He did the same sort of thing with the Chris/ Gilmore situation to her last season.

Anyways, backing the truck up and moving back to the Rory & Logan thing. I would suggest reading the spoilers in the post below at the link provided. They're some great spoilers, and left me wondering a lot less.

Ok, so there you have it. My little rant/ rave about Rogan. I just wanted to get that out there, and my husband is sick of hearing it, so I needed to bend your ears... er, eyes.

GG Spoilers!

GG Spoilers!

Wow... they have a lot of great spoilers there! Read down to the extra's, that's where the confirmed ones end.

Anyways, I just thought you would all like to know!

Have You Ever Noticed?

Rory doesn't have many girlfriends! I mean, there's Lane & Paris.

At least in High School there was also Madeline & Louise.

Don't you think with her being in college she would have more girlfriends?

Yeah, she's hanging out with Juliette & Rosemary (somewhat I would assume) but they're in Logan's group. They're not so much her friends.

I think that they really dropped the ball on giving Rory friends. It never even hit me until just a few minutes ago. Oh well, I just wanted to point that out.

Quick Note About Always There

Hey all!

Sorry for the lack of updates lately.

I lost the election for SGA... which is bad & good. I'm surprisingly not really that disappointed. I have to really get my ass in gear next fall... so at least I'll have more time on my hands for studying & writing.

Anyways, I finally have motivation & inspiration for working on this extremely important chapter of Always There. The only problem is I'm so dead tired I can't really take time to work on it. I have skipped a lot of school this semester, and in order to keep an A/B average, I need to do a lot of make up work this weekend & next week. After May 1st I should have a bit more time... that's when my Art project is due.

I haven't gotten a decent nights sleep (meaning more than 4 hours) in the past week, so I'm exhausted. I have a business paper due today that I need to work on, and I'm out of caffeine. So... I'm going to head out & buy copious amounts of caffeine, and then I'll come back to work on it.

Basically, I'm really sorry I've kept you all in suspense for this awesome chapter, but I PROMISE YOU, it will be worth it once it's finished!

CelebMatch.com

So, I found this cute thing the other day. It's a celeb match. You match your birthday with your fav stars birthdays, and find out if your biorythms are compatible.

I tried Matt Czuchry, but we were 52% compatible.

Then, I tried CMM. We were 95% compatible. Kinda a bummer.

I admit, CMM is hot, but from what I've read about him he's a jerk. (Sorry CMM fans!)

Anyways, it's a good way to pass idle minutes of your life and waste time.

Celeb Match

Back to School...

Ugh. Back to the daily grind of school work. I have sooo much to do before the semester is over. It ends the 9th, and I haven't even started on my final project for art class yet. Nor have I started studying for my psych final. Eek!

I am warning you now, I will not be around the week before finals! I have to go out to Wilmington and do this tour thing for my art paper, or whatever it is. Then I have things to study for and papers to write. I'm just letting you know in advance.

So... I wrote a chapter of Needing You today. But, I did more than that. I figured something out for BBB. I changed my idea for the story some. I really like the direction I'm taking it... I think it will really help the Trory dynamic. If I have time I'll write a chapter of it tomorrow.

Always There... well... I know what I'm going to write, I just need to get all my notes together and type it. Then I need to work something into the chapter... and get it Beta-ed. No clue when it will be ready. All I can say is you won't be disappointed!

Anyways, I scratched the idea for my one shot I was going to write yesterday. It's half finished, and that's the way it's staying. I got half through with writing it, and realized I hate it.

Needing You has been Updated

I finally posted chapter 2 of my PDLD, Needing You.

I know, I know. I took long enough to update it! But, it's a hard fic to write. Seriously, it's really difficult to write, because it's such an emotional fic.

I wanted to take a chance to respond to a few things:

Obstacles: Yes, Tristan will be an obstacle for Finn & Rory. How can he not be? This will not be rushed! Rory has a lot to deal with before she can even start to consider truly moving on.

Finn & Rory: They will not get together quickly! I'm sorry, but it just wouldn't be realistic.

Anyways, if you have a question, just let me know, and I'll do my best to answer it. Thanks for reading!

Jumping to Conclusions is Funny

Wow... so I just read reviews for chapter 6 of Hidden Past. I am laughing sooo hard.

First, let me say I love reviews. Thank you all for taking the time to review.

Now, let me put you all at ease. This is NOT going to be an arranged marriage fic. Give me a bit more credit than that. I have one and only one arranged marriage fic, and that is BBB. No, the way Rogan gets together in this is NOT going to be because Mitch & Chris push them together. Will they push them together? Yes. But remember, Rory is a strong minded, strong willed, independant woman. She's not going to allow her father to dictate who she ends up with.

Rest assured, this is a Rogan, but it won't be a happy couple fic for a while. I have something up my sleeve... just wait & see.

I'm sorry about not including this in the AN for chapter 6. I guess I should have thought that conclusions would be jumped to, but it didn't even register. Rest assured, I'm not taking the easy way out with this fic.

Tonights GG epi

Was sooooo good!

Ok, so I'm not at all a Lane & Zach fan. I simply don't think he's good enough for her. But honestly, it was great.

I really don't like Luke anymore. I jumped off the JavaJunkie ship. I'm now a BalconyBuddy all the way! I mean, L&L just kinda... lost it. I really like Christopher now. I know in the end L&L will end up together... but I adore the L&C scenes.

The toast. How terribly, horribly sad! It made me so mad to see how much Luke was hurting Lorelai. So, so sad. Chris is just being so sweet.

Anyways, it was an awesome episode. Very funny, especially the running. Hilarious.

Best line of the night:

Lorelai Gilmore, disappointing mothers since 1968.

Make it Stop!!!

Ugh! I hate this! I thought of an entire new GG short fic series. Ugh, I was watching a rerun of GG, and thought of an entire series of one shots . Grrr. Now I just have to write it.

I'm not sure if it's going to be a series of One shots, or if I'm gonna do it like a chapter fic... but just have each chapter be a one shot based on it. Probably the latter.

Anyways, ugh, I hate it when I just get an idea & I HAVE to write it.

It's how Saga started.

It's how Fun in the Sun started.

It's how Blurred Lines came about.

It's how Easter Egg Hunt got written.

Grrr. Now I have to go write!

Oh, the one thing I will tell you about it, it's gonna be a Rogan.

Hidden Past has been Updated!

Yep, you heard right! I finally updated Hidden Past!

I'm already working on the next chapter, too! No promises for when it will be out.

My hubby is supposed to go out to dinner with a buddy tonight... I am, too, but I feel sick, so maybe I can get the house to myself for a few hours and work on Always There.

Anyways, I only have about 3 weeks or so of school. I think I have one week off, and then I start summer school. At least I get a week off.

AN about Blurred Lines

I'm sorry if there was any confusion, but it will not be turned into a series. It's staying as a one shot. I totally appreciate all the reviews. The thing is, that fic is so different from what I usually write... it's truly a stand- alone. There is no way I could continue to write it and get what I'm aiming for in each chapter. It took me a while to write it as a one shot. Besides, I have wayyyyy too many fics going right now. Not all of them are posted on ff.net. I know, scary... but I have about 10 other fics brewing in my comp and on my post its.

Thanks for the feedback to Blurred Lines!

Updates

Has been updated! Yay! Chapter 6 is up... finally! Ha!

Anyways, I have part of chapter 7 written out on paper... so I just need to find it, type it, and expand.

Always There will not be up today!!!!! I repeat, Always There will not be up today (Tuesday)! It is an important chapter, and I haven't written it yet. I still have to finish writing it (In fairness, I know exactly what will happen, and half of it is written on paper... just not typed.) and then I have to send it to be beta-ed. I never beta my stories, but this one chapter will be beta-ed. The person beta-ing isn't a GG fan or a OTH fan (haha) but I trust this author implicitly with my writing, so that's why there will be a hold up. I'm sorry for the delay, but I promise you, it will be worth it.

Now, with that being said, Hidden Past is being worked on. I have the next chapter almost done... but... I'm changing it. You see, I've fallen in love with Jake. So, I need to work Logan into the fic more. (After all, it is a Rogan.) So... I need to change a few aspects of the next chapter, and then set up the story for Rogan. It's getting harder & harder to write it, because I love Jory in this! I've had several requests for a Jory, and yes... I will write a Jory. It will be a one shot... I already know what the plot will be & everything. It's a sort of sequel to Hidden Past for fellow Jory fans. It's taking everything in me not to write it now.

Saga... I tried writing this. Honestly, I did. But damn, it's sooooooooooooo long. And this chapter is sooooooooo complex. We're talking soap story lines here, people! Grrrr. I need my hubby to go to the field or something for a week when I'm not in school and just give me straight quiet writing time to work on it. I'm working on it, but progress is sooooooooo slow. Sorry!

Solutions- I'm zapped of inspiration for it. Don't worry, I'll work on it. Just don't expect it to be done in a timely fashion.

Anyways, my foot feels much better. It just hurts when I use it a lot. The pain is definitly more bareable though. I'm sooo exhausted. I think I'm gonna go for now.

Night!

Trory One Shot

I wrote an Easter one shot for Trory. It's called Easter Egg Hunt. It's a really fluffy little fic. Check it out.

Ok, so...

I worked on some fics tonight. But, the stooges came over & interrupted. So, the updates planned for tonight got detained. Hopefully some updates will be up tomorrow.

V for Vendetta

So, like I said, I went to the movies with the Stooges tonight. We saw V for Vendetta.

I like lots of movies. I also hate a few. There are some I like enough to watch more than once, so I buy them on DVD. To be honest, it's very few movies that make my DVD list.

When I was in my Vin Diesel phase, I got A Man Apart. I love National Treasure.

But for the most part, my hubby buys the DVD's, or I rent them.

I love few movies.

V for Vendetta is one of the few. It's a brilliant, mind twisting head trip that will have you gaping at the screen. Seriously.

I am a person very set in my beliefs. I understand not everyone shares my views, but for the most part I tune them out. I believe I am right in my views, and I have reasons to back this up.

This movie really made me rethink a few things. I don't want to ruin the movie for anyone who has yet to see it, but it's an incredible movie. It reminded me what makes a country great. That is freedom. The freedom to have different views and beliefs, and be able to speak them.

Damn, every time stooge #3 is around I have a very profound epiphany. Too bad he won't be here for too long.

Anyways, the point of this post is V for Vendetta is a kick ass movie, and I urge you all to go see it. It really puts things in perspective.

Trip Down Memory Lane

Well, tonight I fell through a rabbit hole and took a trip down memory lane.

Ok, so the rabbit hole was in fact my apartment, and instead of a white rabbit there were 2 special Marines from a while back.

My hubby's best 2 Marine buddy's came over tonight. The strange thing about that is one has been on a MUE since before hubby got back from Iraq. The other got out of the Corp almost a year ago.

I'm lounging on the computer in workout pants and a pink tank top, typing a Trory one shot, and not paying attention to anything. All of a sudden, buddy #1 pops up. I stare at him in silence for about 3 seconds, trying to grasp that he just popped out of no where when he should be far, far away. Then, I mutter, "Fuck."

The guys all got a great laugh out of that. We just BS-ed for a while, and then went to the movies.

I gotta say, I missed having the 3 stooges around. Life can be entertaining.

So that was my little trip down memory lane. And I have them all three in town until the end of the month. (Cackles with glee & amusement.) Oh, the mischief that will be done.

Always There

I just wanted to let you guys know the next chapter of Always There may be a few days late.

It's an important chapter, so I'm having another author, whom I trust implicitly, beta it for me. I've never used a better before, ever, so this is kinda new for me. So once it's written I'll have to send it to her to edit, so it may be a bit late.

Sorry about this, but it's the only way I'll write this chapter.

Lack of Updates

Hey guys, sorry I haven't updated as much as I wanted to over Spring Break.

I have Fun in the Sun all mapped out on paper. I know what's going to happen. I have an idea of who Rory will end up with, but nothing is for sure yet. I'm pretty sure I can get the fic all finished by the end of the month. Maybe a week or so into May at the latest.

The reason updates have been slow is I hurt my foot. My left foot has always been weak since I injured it in dance classes over the years. I fell down the stairs a few days ago and hurt it, and now it hurts to move it at all, and it's swollen. Basically, I've been sitting around doing a bunch of nothing just resting and sleeping a lot.

My other fics will be updated next week. Sorry!

Eeek...

Ok, so I've looked over what I've accomplished this week. Not much.

I've been vegging & chilling & relaxing a lot.

There is no way Fun in the Sun is being finished this week. I'll try to get a few more chapters out by this weekend. I know where I want to go with the fic, but I'm not sure how to get there. That's my problem right now.

Hidden Past. I finally figured out how the fics gonna get where it needs to go! Yesss! :) Updates should be more frequent now.

Solutions. It'll be updated, but it's not a priority.

BBB- I'm VERY happy with where I'm taking this.

Saga- Being worked on! I'm only on page 5... maybe if I spend a few hours today & tomorrow writing it'll get done by Weds. Who knows.

Everything Changes- I have somewhere I want to go with this, I just need to concentrate on a few other things first. This is gonna be a great fic, eventually. I just need to figure out my little twist to the story.

Anyways, I am writing a one shot Rogan right now. It just came to me. It's a song fic. Should be up soon.

Always There Chapter 12 Important Announcement!

The next chapter will not be up tonight.

I am writing it right now... but I may just go to bed.

I know what's going to happen (mostly) in this chapter, and the next one is sorta written already.

I just have some personal stuff on my mind right now, so I need to deal with some things. It should be up tomorrow... maybe if I can't sleep tonight (which I may not because I have a lot on my mind) then I'll stay up writing all night.

Anyways, sorry about the delay.

Tonights GG epi!

Wow, I gotta say, tonights epi was one of- if not the- best epis of the season! It was so classic... yet not... it was great!

The Paul Anka bit was great! The cucumbers was sooo funny.

Lorelai & Lane's wedding dress. Can I just say hilarious? I knew, knew knew that she was gonna throw the coffee on it. I just knew it! Good ridance!

Now... to my favorite...

Logan & Rory

Wow!

Even thought they're fighting, I think it's good. Don't get me wrong, I want them to ride off into the sun set more than any other couple on the show, but... it's good to see them fight. Yes, they've fought a lot lately... but this is different. This isn't inflicted by other parties meddling. This is every day "We have to deal with each other" fighting. I love it! I think they're doing a great job.

Colin's comment about the woman of the house was hilarious! Too great! I was squealing when I saw Colin & Finn at the apt. I really think the guys are great for respecting their need to duke it out in private.

I love Rory. She's my favorite character. But man, was she being a bitch!

Okay... Jess. Hmmm... I usually hate Jess. But he wasn't so hateable this time. He was actually even semi-likable. Yikes. That, for me, is a scary thought. I've never liked Jess before. I think the way everything was handled was really great. Hopefully when she returns home to the apt she & Logan can get everything squared away. I loved how she was saying she loves Logan. That was just... perfect. Simply perfect. I think that there sealed the deal for me. Any doubts (there were none) about Rory & Logan I had are gone. I honestly think that in the end of the show... I mean the very last epi of next season, they'll still be together. I think this is a great way to set their relationship up. I think by going through all this, they will last.

The Richard & Emily bit was pretty funny. It provided some much needed humor.

Luke & Lorelai & April... huh. Even my husband commented about how Rory knows April before Lorelai does. And the whole Emily with girl in the diner thing... funny!

Well, there were my rambles about tonights epi. Basically, I'm just really hyped up on a Gilmore high & needed to express my opinions. I now go to write the next chapter of Always There.

Blurred Lines

My new Trory Chilton-era one shot.

Wow... so far it has 21 reviews! And it's a ONE SHOT! Wow! To be honest, I almost didn't post it, because I really wasn't sure if it was good or not! I am so glad everyone liked it!

Thanks for reading it everyone. I am so flattered by all the reviews.

Now, I have had a couple of reviews which requested me to continue it. I'm sorry, but it will not be continued. It was written as a one shot, and I honestly don't know where I could go with it.

Usually, when I write a One shot, it develops itself where I end up writing it as a full fic (think Saga) but in this one, it's only gonna be a one shot. Thanks for reading though!

Updates!

Yay!

Ok, BBB, Hidden Past, and Fun in the Sun have been updated.

I am sooo excited about the next chapter of Hidden Past... it's gonna be good, but it may take a day or so, cause it may be a long chapter.

I'm gonna go work on a Trory I've been writing for a few weeks now, and maybe Saga.

I'll keep everyone updated on my progress!

Yes!!! I am sooo excited!

I just got my grade back through my school email for my huge paper... I got a B+!

This is the first huge paper I've written for this class... and I was soooo excited, especially since I didn't have anyone peer edit it like I was supposed to. Basically, I started writing this a few days before it was due... and I got a B+! It's the lowest grade I've recieved in that class thus far, but it was a huge paper... so I'm proud! Here's what my teacher said:


"Good essay, Donna! Your paper was well-written. You chose good sources and supported your thesis well."

(Does happy dance!)

Ok, now I'll get back to the next chapter of BBB...

Working On Fics!

Hey everyone!

I'm working on BBB and Hidden Past right now.

I have an idea for Always There... I know what's going to happen in the next chapter.

I'll try to write those three chapters today. If I have more time, I'll get out another chapter of Fun in the Sun, and I want to write a few pages of Saga.

I figure the only way I'll ever finish Saga is just to write a few pages everyday... the last chapter was about 26 pages. I think I have 4 written for the new chapter.

Oh, I also have a Trory I want to write. I think it will be exactly 7 chapters. It's something of a songfic... and it follows their lives together. I hope to get one chapter out each day for the next week... and be done when I go back to school on Weds next week!

Some Good Fics To Read...

Last time I posted some fics I enjoy reading I got a response in the form of a wonderful email from a fellow Trory fan with some of her fav fics. (Thanks Rissha- I enjoyed them all!) So, I figured I'd post some more fav reads here for you...

Christmas Miracles: This is the ONLY Lit I read. I hate Lit. So how I became a fan of this fic I will never know. It's a future fic, and it's truly wonderful. (And coming from a Jess-hater, that's a big compliment!)

Not Easy: A future Trory One Shot. Sweet... angst... and wonderfully written. What more could a girl ask for?

What Surpasses Pain?: It's a new L/C & Rogan fic. Only 2 chapters so far... but it has serious potential. Not for L & L fans.

My Kingdom is Elsewhere: A Chilton-era AU Trory. Very intriguing!

Maybe I'll post some others later. Happy reading!

Tomorrow...

I will start working on my fics again! I have one more day of my self- appointed fic vacation before I start back up.

I promise you all multiple updates of my fics... and even a couple extra goodies!

I have ideas for a L/C one shot. (Sorry to L & L fans, if you hate L/C, then don't read it...)

And there's a Trory fic I have sorta written... maybe I can get a chapter out each day of the week, and be done by the time Spring Break is up.

Anyways, just wanted to tell you all I'll be writing again tomorrow!

Opinions on this season of GG...

I know a lot of people are disappointed with this season of GG. But really, I'm not. No, it hasn't been all sunflowers and daisy's. Yes, L&L have hit a rough patch. Yes, It's different than the other seasons.

But what do you expect? The girls are changing! They are growing older & experiencing life... they obviously won't act like they did 5 years ago. Hell, if you want to watch something where the characters are the same for years- watch a soap! Those plot lines move like molasses!

I'm just sick of hearing the gripings about this past season. Maybe it wasn't the way I would write it, but it's pretty kick ass all the same! It keeps you tuning in each week, doesn't it?

Funny, Seriously... just funny

Ok, I was reading the reviews for one of my fav fics. The author who writes it has done an amazing job. I was SHOCKED to find that it actually got a bad review! The funny thing is, the reviewer (who has also given me bad reviews before, but it's not that big a deal to me) is soooo... critical... yet the one story this person has written is one of the most hideously put together fics I have ever written! It's soooo funny to get a bad review from someone, have them tell you what an awful, boring writer you are, and then find out that the reviewer is actually an awful writer! I just laughed soooo hard. I mean, hypocrisy much?

Don't get me wrong, I like conservative criticism. It helps. Really. But when someone out & out bashes your story (if they hate it that much, then don't read it!) and then realize that person couldn't write a readable fic for anything... well... it kinda contradicts the weight their review holds, ya know?

Updates will start...

Hey everyone. Ok, I first want to apalogize for not updating this week. It has been a crazy week. I'm an A student... but I missed a lot of History classes... including important assignments, and I'm failing! So... my teacher is working with me to see if I have a chance at bringing that grade up. If not, he's going to drop me with a W for withdrawl (even though it's passed that time in the class, he's going to do it anyways). Campaigning for student govt has kept me busy, and then I have some family stuff going on.

I won't have a chance to write on Saturday... and possibly not Sunday. But Monday I'll start writing again, and updates should be on a daily basis from Tuesday or Weds through the rest of Spring break. Anyways... I just thought I'd let you all know what's going on. Thanks for the patience! I promise, this time next week you'll be reading new chapters of Solutions, BBB, and Fun in the Sun... and whatever else I'm working on! :)

Important! About always there!

Several people have asked about the pairing. It's a Lucas/Rory/Logan triangle, but will ultimately be a Rory & Lucas. Sorry for any confusion!

Always There Ch 11 AN

Thanks for taking the time to read & review! I really appreciate it! I am soooo glad I wrote most of this chapter last week! It wouldn't have been updated tonight had I not. I have had the day from hell. Anyways, just so you know, I actually know where I'm going with this story now. I have chapters 14, 15, and 16 planned... it's just getting there! Part of either 14 or 15 has been written already.

Love23: Thank you!

KarahBella: Thanks!

KeitaWolf: Yeah, Uh oh is correct. The chapter didn't turn out how I wanted it to... but I think I'll tie it into the next chapter... dum dum dum. ;)

Shotswithmrskim: Yeah, it was fillerish. I was also excited for the party... but the chapter didn't turn out how I wanted it to. I have an idea for the next one though!

Ali: Well, I think Rory will take him...

justine260: Sorry, it's a Lucas & Rory.

Shiloh: Thanks! I try to update every Tuesday.

mrmp: Hmmm... I don't think I've given Finn enough fic time. Maybe soon.

Princetongirl: Thank you!

SmilesAreAllIneed: Thanks! I have a nack for the cliffhangers... it's a bad habit though. I think I'll try to end a chapter soon without a cliffhanger.

just hidden: Yep, Finn! :)

:D : Well, it's there! And no... it's not over yet.

Quick Lil Note about Always There

It may or may not be updated tonight.

I have the chapter written, I just need to edit it. I have had the craziest, most fucked up day I've had in a while.

So, if I get the chance to tonight I'll edit it, and make sure it's ok to post. If not, then it'll be there tomorrow.

I feel bad for not being more on the ball about it, but if you knew the day I had, you would understand.

Spring Break Goals...

I have the following goals for the week I'm on Spring Break (You'll be happy!)

1. Get a new chapter of Saga out!!!! I know, it's soooo long overdue! It's been over a month... but in my defense, it will be a long chapter. At least 20 pages... probably way more.

2. Two new chapters of the following fics:

Hidden Past
BBB
Solutions

3. One new chapter of:

Lost
Needing You
Everything Changes

4. Finish Fun in the Sun!

5. Write my one shots! I have a Trory one shot I've been working on when I'm bored in psych class. I also have a couple other little half- finished one shots I want to work on.

So there you go, my little list of things to do during Spring Break!

Woo Hoo!

I'm done! I'm done! I'm done! I'm done! I'm done!

Did I mention I'm done?

At least I am with my paper. Finally! I just sent it to my teacher. It was an expensive paper to write, lol! I bought so many books for it for current sources.

Anyways, I have some art stuff to work on tonight, and then tomorrow I need to campaign for a while. I also need to study for a History quiz.

I have a huge business test later this week, which I'll take probably on Thursday.

The biggest thing was the paper, but now that that's done I can take a breather, and maybe, if I want to, write a chapter or so. But I'm kinda tired of typing... so maybe not. It depends.

Anyways, Always There will be updated tomorrow... I am really enjoying working on that one!

One more week!

Hey everyone!

I'm working on my paper today. I have one week of school until spring break! Thank God!

I still need to finish my paper & print off a few hundred flyers & make posters for elections tonight, and then I'll be really busy with school work this week.

I will be updating a lot starting the 7th.

Yessss! (GG Spoilers)

Ok, GG spoilers & rumors here. Read at your own risk!

Ask Ausiello
How great is the Rory & Logan one? I mean, about being in a great place? Yayyyy!

Working on...

Hey!

Well, I'm working on Hidden Past this morning. I have another chapter of Fun in the Sun almost done. I just want to edit it and maybe add a little more.

Always There is ready to be posted on Tuesday! I'm actually ahead of schedule for once. I'm either started on chapter 12 or I know what I'm going to write. I actually have bits of chapters 14-15 written, so I just need to work on 12 and 13. It's getting to the point in the story that I've known what I was going to write since the beggining.

This weekend I really need to work on real life stuff. I have got to write my paper! That will take up most of today and tomorrow. Plus, I'm going out with a friend tonight, so I won't work on it then. I also have elections coming up. I need to get my campaign stuff together by Monday, so if I don't update for the next several days, you know why!

Eek... I also just remembered I have a psych test on Monday.

My cable DVR went out, so I'm returning it to the cable company when they open this morning. I'll keep writing until I go, but after that school work has dibs on me. I spent a good chunk of time yesterday brainstorming for my fics, and I'm pleased with what I came up with. I'm sure you will be too!
