Entry #1: Let the Journey Begin!


Hey guys! How are you? How have things been? Have you had anything awesome happen to you since I was last TRULY on? Has something been getting you down? Are there idiots out there who deserve a punch in the gut for some stupid thing they've done to you? Let me know! I'm curious!

Anyway, let me first get a few things out of the way. First, Happy New Years to everyone out there! I'm sorry that I'm so late! Second, Happy National Hugging Day and Squirrel Appreciation Day! Betcha didn't know that the 21st of January was such a neat holiday, hmm?

Now that I've somewhat gotten caught up, let's get down to business. As some of you may know, I've been writing a story called "School Sucks!". However, as you some of you may also know, I haven't updated it in FOREVER, and for that,  I'm terribly sorry OTL Thankfully, though, the desire to write has made itself known. For the past few weeks, I have had the strangest urges to just write. Sadly though, my mind would start to draw a blank every time I started to write. 

This brings me to the main reason I wrote this journal. I have a TON of story ideas that I've come up with, including when and where they take place, and I REALLY want to write them down. But, I'm at a bit of a standstill: I can't decide which to do. 

So, I have compiled these ideas together, along with a basic summary of each, and I was hoping that maybe some of my watchers could help me decide which to focus on. I actually plan on putting a poll up momentarily for this. I have a few more, but these are the most developed ones (save for one that I didn't mention for certain reasons). I first ask that no one use these ideas without my permission, as I've been working on them for a very long time. If there are any similarities between the characters, settings,  or stories that I have listed below with other pieces of literature or media , then I can assure you that they are purely coincidental. Anywhosers, here they are!

The Misadventures of Bed-Kun and Lovi-San
"The Misadventures of Bed-Kun and Lovi-San" is a comedy with a bit of a supernatural twist that involves a bed-turned-human and a social outcast. 
What would you do if you woke up to find some strange man where your bed should have been?
Lucianna Lovina Giovanni is certainly not the most popular girl in school, despite the fact that she's a transfer student from Italy. In fact, in the entire 3 years she's been going to Fairbarrow High, the only positive attention she got was on the first day she arrived there
When she 'accidentally' punched that one guy in the jaw
Not the best way to start off at a new school, huh? 
Well, anyway, she'd been living in Fairbarrow for a little over three years now, and a few things have remained the same: 
She still has only two friends (and they're dating so she's often the third-wheel), all of her teachers still hate her, and, last but not least, her mom and dad's families are still fighting. 
Lovely, right? 
Anyway, this is Lovi's last year in high school, and she wants something, anything to happen that will make this year outshine the rest. So, deciding to cliche it up a bit, she makes a wish on a shooting star. 
The next morning, she waddles into her room to find out that her bed's missing, and, in its place is a... man?? WHAT?!

> Schools Sucks! New and Improved!
"School Sucks! New and Improved!" is a comedic slice of life story that many of my watchers are already somewhat acquainted with. It's your basic high school story that focuses on a group of friends that are trying to deal with the ups and downs of high school, all the while developing their special talents at an elite private academy. 
But, now there's a twist. 
Instead of all the characters that everyone knows, like Becka Carters and Jack Cunningham, we now have Benjamin Carters and Jackie Cunningham!
That's right, you guessed it!
Everyone's the opposite gender!
Fun, right?
Anyway, we have the basic high school setting with a few little twists added in, liiikkkee...
+ There's a rival academy?? Oh noes! And, what's this I hear? One of the main characters starts to fall for the lead actor at the other school?? No Way!
+ A secret passageway in the library? C'mon! That's way too cliche! That can't be true... right?
+ The annual carnival for the school is coming up, and you know what that means!: Kissing Booth! Ooh la la!

> I Love (to Hate) You
"I Love (to Hate) You" is a romantic comedy that centers around a hard-working secretary and a smug and narcissistic model.  
What if you suddenly started falling for someone you've hated since the day you met?
Alexandra hates Emmerson with all her heart. She finds him disgusting and to be a complete and utter playboy. All he does is piss her off with his perverted flirting and narcissistically smug attitude. Besides, there's a really cute guy at the office that she'd rather spend her time with. So, why on earth does she suddenly start dreaming about Emmerson?? Why does she suddenly start finding him to be "not that bad"? And since when did Emmerson start saying sorry?! 
He's the man that she loves to hate, but now he's starting to become the man that she hates to love...

So, what do you all think? Any of 'em sound interesting? If so, leave a comment below! 

Alrighty dearies, it's time for me to scram, as I have some work to do.
 *sigh*. 

Hasta La Pasta~!

P.S.
Oh, there's one last thing I forgot to mention!

I making up a  few characters for something, and I’m kinda stuck on this idea for one of them. However, I can’t seem to find the actual medical term I’m looking for. My (idiotic) idea is that the female character has these little… ‘attacks’ because of a certain ‘trigger’. For example, if she hears a certain song or is put in a certain situation, she’ll start hyperventilating and freaking out, and she’ll eventually just shut down out of fear. I’m not sure if that’s a panic disorder or just a severe case of phobia, but I’ve made myself almost die from curiosity trying to figure it out. I’ve looked all over Google and other sites, but I just can’t find what I’m looking for. I was thinking of having the female try to prove that even though she has these frequent ‘attacks’ that disrupt her everyday life, she can still manage just fine on her own.

There’s also one other reason as to why I decided to put this question on tumblr. Would I be insulting those who do have ‘attacks’ like the ones I am thinking of? I don’t want to do that at all, as that’s just crossing the line for me. I really hope that I didn’t offend anyone with this question.

Also, 

Does anyone have any good twin names? ‘Cause I just can’t seem to find the right names for them. One is a boy and one is a girl. They’re both dark brunettes (almost black) with dark blue eyes and glasses, and they’re Irish-Italian, with the mother being Irish and the father being Italian.

Hey! This a somewhat serious journal from a not so serious chick! It's been a while, I know, but I just wanna tell you guys a little something. 

If you have a little sibling that you haven't seen in a while, but are able to see, please, pay them a visit. It WILL mean the world to them. My older sister, who I haven't seen in a little over two years, just came by to visit, and let me tell you; it's almost impossible for me to write this. For what feels like the hundredth time tonight, my eyes are watering with tears of joy that are just DYING to be let loose. It didn't fully hit me how much I missed her, until she stepped through that door and hugged me. I've missed her so much, and to have her sit down and talk with me and reminisce about our childhood and talk about her new job and her future has made me so much happier. I can't even begin to express how happy I am right now. Seeing her also made me realize how much she has shaped me into the person I am today. She's the one who got me hooked on Harvest Moon, and, indirectly, Rune Factory, and maybe on Otome games as well. My big sister was my idol as a child and she still is today. 

So please, PLEASE, if you have a little sibling, even if they are little terrors and demons, PLEASE visit them. I was so happy when my big sister came to see me. Trust me, your little siblings will too. And think about this as well. Every little thing you do will help shape your little sibling. EVERY THING. Just having my sister invite me to watch her play her DS has sparked in interest in me that has shaped me tremendously, it's not even funny. So, please, no matter how terrible your relationship, no matter how much you can't stand them, please take the time to remember and visit your little siblings. Both you and them will be happy. I guarantee it.

HEY YOU! YEAH YOU! PERSON WHO JUST CLICKED ON THAT ENVELOPE THINGY (OR POSSIBLY IS JUST VIEWING MY PAGE IDK). CLICK THIS JOURNAL OR LINK OR WHATEVER! I WANNA SPEAK WITH YOU FOR JUST A SEC! 


So, now that I have your undivided attention, I would like to give a small speech about suicide. 



    Don't commit suicide. Don't ever even think about committing suicide. You are an amazing person that can NEVER be replaced. You were put here for a reason! Don't just throw away your life thinking that you're worthless or that the world is just too terrible or that no one will miss you when you're gone. People WILL miss you. People DO love you and ALWAYS will love you. No matter how bad things seem, they WILL get better. I can promise you that. And yeah, the world isn't that great a place, but that doesn't mean everyone in it is terrible. If you ever need someone to talk to or something, there are a ton of people who will listen to you, me included! I may not be able to help much, but I certainly will listen! 

    And, no offense, but suicide seems kind of cowardly to me. Not that the people who have done it are cowardly, but the act itself. It seems like the easy way out. That someone is just giving up. Well yeah, it might be the easy way out for YOU, but what about your family and friends? You've just taken away someone that they care about, just ripped them out of their lives forever. That's really selfish. Things aren't always going to be peachy-keen. That's just something you have to deal with. That's just LIFE. And think about this, what if you were supposed to go on and find the cure to cancer? You wouldn't be able to if you killed yourself, would you? What if your future child ended up being the President of the U.S. or some other country? There won't be a future child if you kill yourself! You have NO IDEA what the future will hold so don't just throw it all away. 

    Also, don't put others down. Don't bully someone else because you think it's fun or you feel that others deserve to suffer like you or whatever garbage you tell yourself. Bullying is NOT okay. And just in case you (for some stupid reason) believe that bullying has nothing to do with suicide, here's some statistics for ya:
          -Bully victims are between 2 to 9 times more likely to consider suicide than non-victims, according to studies by Yale University 

          -A study in Britain found that at least half of suicides among young people are related to bullying

    And one last thing; If you ever see or talk to someone who seems down or sad or depressed, talk to them. Make sure they're all right. Smile at them. Tell them that they can talk to you. Do whatever it takes to help them be happy again. Who knows, something as simple as a hello or a smile could save a person's life.
 


I  know that this isn't the best suicide speech out there, but I just want you all to know that you are all amazing people and that there is no way in hell that anyone will ever be able to change my mind on the subject. And like I said earlier, if you need someone to complain to or someone to listen to you or someone to rant to or whatever, I'm here. I may not offer the best solutions, I may not give the best answers, and I might not know what the heck to say sometimes, but you can betcha-by-golly that I'll listen!

"The Substitute of Zeus(제우스의 대리인) is a PC visual novel/Otome game based on Greek Mythology, created by Team DS."

HELLLLLLOOOOOOOO!!!! IT'S ME AGAIN OBVIOUSLY! WHO ELSE BLOWS UP YOUR LITTLE ENVELOPE THINGY WITH POINTLESS CRAP? 

So, this journal entry is about this awesome new game called "The Substitute of Zeus". As I put above, it's a PC visual novel/Otome game based on Greek Mythology. Now, for mythology junkies such as myself, this game is like a small slice of heaven. I've downloaded the FREE demo and played it and now it's 12:30 AM. I should be sleeping but I can't. I finished the demo hours ago, but I just can't stop listening to their gorgeous voices! Of course, I can't understand a word they're saying since it's in Korean, but they do provide text-boxes with English. Their voices are just amazing! I love Poseidon's voice! It's so awesome! And Hermes's is just adorable! 

So far, there isn't a large fan base (I think) since I have seen virtually no fanart or anything talking about it except for a few blogs on Tumblr. It kinda makes me feel special! I am literally obsessed with this game right now. 

Anywho, since it is part Otome game, there are some quite handsome virtual dudes you can date. From what I've gathered from the demo, there are 8. 
  1. Apollo- To me, he looks like an absolute jerk,and the sad thing is it's only the demo and I already want to punch him in his stupid gorgeous face. 
  2. Poseidon- My favorite so far. He seems like the nice and friendly guy who teases on occasion. I just love him. He's so gorgeous I love his hair. Seriously. I'M IN LOVE WITH THIS MAN'S HAIR. 
  3. Hermes- Technically you can date him, but I'd feel like a pedophile if I did. He's just so cute and he looks and acts like that little brother every person dreams about having. I just wanna squeeze his adorable little cheeks! 
  4. Hades- I haven't seen a lot of him, but from what I've seen, he's a really cold character.  His facial expression doesn't change a lot, and so far I haven't seen him smile. 
  5. Dionysus- ADORABLE ADORABLE ADORABLE! Along with Hermes, he gets my adorable stamp. He reminds me of a childhood character who secretly likes the main character, or vice versa. He's super friendly and sweet. He seems to be fond of wine and gambling though. 
  6. Ares- "100% tsun, 0% dere!" He fits the tag "tsundere" to a T! He blushes a lot around the MC and seems to be a bit naive when it comes to relationships. He's in my top 3 though. (The other 2 being Poseidon and Hephaestus)
  7. Hephaestus- He's super duper shy I think. Or he's just really socially awkward. Like REALLY socially awkward. He always has his hood pulled up so you can't see his face. From what I've seen, he stutters a lot but is probably one of the sweetest characters. 
  8. Idon'tknowhisnameohyeahit's~Hidden Character!- He doesn't have a name and he kinda creeps me out! He's there whenever you mess up, or from what I was forced to experience, whenever you die a very painful death. He's there to tell you what you did wrong and to make Game Over a bit more pleasant. 

Okay, that was just my take on the characters, so if you want pictures of these too handsome men, check out the OFFICIAL blog. The link's at the bottom of the journal. Now onto the game itself!

.
.
.
Okay, I don't have the time nor the patience to type out my thoughts exactly, so here's what the blog says: 

-"You would never know how long I have been waiting for this moment…"

Young-un is an ordinary girl who has just finished high-school.

She seems to be heading towards a promising future when suddenly she is visited by none other than Zeus himself, who, in the form of golden rain, drags her to Olympus.

The only things Zeus gives her are strange glowing tattoos on her back and new burden to act as Zeus's substitute.

To return to her world, she must complete her job as the substitute of Zeus….

Olympus, where the present and the past are distorted into a chaotic concoction - Young un's perilous journey with gods and mythical creatures begins here!

P.s. Young un is the MC's set name. Though (thankfully) you can change it.


Sounds pretty awesome huh? The download links and instructions are at the official blog under download, and if you can't find em just let me know and I'll help however I can!  This game is definitely worth the download! Remember to follow the instructions though! 

Remember, it's only the demo. I'm not sure when the game itself comes out, but I hope it's soon! ANd free! Oh please let it be free! I has no moneys! 

Also! For those of you who don't know, an Otome game is a dating sim. If you've ever heard of Pacthesis or My Candy Love, then you've heard/played an Otome game. Pacthesis makes em and My Candy Love is one.

So many thing is come to mind when I think of that movie. Most of them unpleasant. It's not that the movie was bad, but it DIDN'T FOLLOW THE BOOK AT ALL! In my opinion, no one was truly in character except for Magnus and Alec. They were the only two who actually seemed like their character. Everyone else just screwed it all to effing Hell.

 

ATTENTION! SPOILER ALERT!

 

First off, the movie made it seem like Hodge was a good guy, what with him saving Isabelle and Simon. WRONG!  In the book, Hodge just left Alec to die! He just walked out of the Institute and didn't look back!

Then, THEY FREAKING TOOK OUT THE DEMON BIKES!! I MEAN COME ON!! WHAT THE EVERLIVING HECK?! THAT WAS THE BEST PART! AND THEY LEFT OUT SIMON BECOMING A RAT! I MEAN WHO DOES THAT?!

They also made the portal be in the Institute. NOPE! WRONG! INCORRECT! The portal was in Madame Dorthea's house diptards!

In  my opinion, they also made it seem like Clary and Jace's relationship went too fast. In the books, it actually seemed like they were falling in love, but in the movie, it was all like, "Hey I just met you, and this is crazy! But I see demons, so kiss me baby!" Okay, not like that exactly, but it seemed like they just rushed. A better thing for that would be, "Clary-Hey, I see you and demons and stuff. Jace- Wow, that's amazing! I'm going to fall in love with you about 20 minutes into the movie!" I'm serious. In the first 30 minutes, they were already falling.

Those were some of the main things that ticked me off. Oh wait, I forgot one.

WHY. THE. HECK. DID. ALMOST. ALL. THE. CHARACTERS. HAVE. BRITISH. ACCENTS?! Why?! I thought this story took place in AMERICA! Even Clary's mom had a British accent. Why did everyone have a British accent?! I'm not hating on the accents or anything, but come on!

Okay, now I'm done. But there were just so many things that they either left out or changed. It's ridiculous! Now, if I hadn't read the books, then I might've adored the movie. But, sadly, I did read the books.

I really can't decide if I hated it or liked it.

 

I have a theory that whoever directed the first Percy Jackson film also directed the Mortal Instruments film. (The Percy Jackson one was a mockery of the books. I absolutely refuse to see the 2nd one the first was so bad.)

 

THUS ENDS MY BOOK RANT!


Also, please remember that this is all in my opinion.
