STIZO

.... Houston, we have a pulse. Now that my life has finally returned to some resemblence of normal and that I now have a very nice net connection, Serenity Park will be BACK! Soon! I apologize for the delay. For those who have no idea what I am talking about, start here:

ERISPIE

I am annoyed that I don't seem to be able to find a place to bookmark my favourite writers, either it's not there or I'm dumb. So I'll put it in my log thingy for now.

So that’s it. No more Fanfic (an observation that is likely to upset no one but me!) … I’m gonna concentrate on writing proper stuff that I should be writing, but don’t’ enjoy as much instead, but I’m gonna take what I learnt with me. Among other things I learnt writing my first (and last) ever fanfics were the following: 1. I never knew I could write anything that long; 2. Intersperse exposition with conflab – it’s makes it easier to read; 3. Character is everything; 4. If you don’t have a plot, peril will do; 5. *guay* is the Mandarin for Hell; 6. Always re-read old fanfics after some months, you won’t believe you wrote them; 7. Write a little bit every day whether you want to or not, you can always delete it later; 8. Writing it down tends to ruin your imagination – it’s like it’s set in stone and it did happen that way, you can’t change the story once it’s written; 9. You may think you’re writing for yourself, but you actually just want an audience, ya big egomaniac! So adieu, Hat et al, I’m sure gonna miss you guys … But I have to be big and grown up about this and write something I might be actually able to sell! But at least I know I can persevere and I owe that all to Mr Whedon and Firefly! As one of my very best friends said to me (whilst waiting to see the BDM last week): “There must be something seriously good about this Firefly thing to make you actually write fanfic, ya freak!” (ah, I love my pals!)

REGINAROADIE

Hello, all. I just wanted to let everyone here know that today is my 20th birthday. As of now, I am no longer a teenager. I suppose I could be considered a young adult for real, and not euphemistically. Strange. It doesn't feel like anything's changed for me. Today I slept in, I'm going to watch some library DVD's, go to Craven for work (I'm the locations department for this short movie I'm working on for free. Basically, I'm putting up and taking down signs and sitting in my car at the bottom of the hil, flagging down people and telling them there's a movie shooting up at the top and that they should honk and go slowly in order for them to get out of the way), go to a wedding rehearsal at 6:30 and then come back here, hopefully to chat with KaySky whom I havn't talked to in months and that's it. My folks gave me two 400 dollar checks. One for my tuition, and one so that I can buy an iPod mini, which aside from a stack of TVD's, was the main thing I wanted for b-day. But because on the 7th, I have to show up at court and possibly pay a fine (it's a really long story I don't want to get into), as well as my tuition, I think I need to put any big, lavish shopping spree's on hold. Every year my birthdays get more nondescript than the last. And even though they're cheesy as Hell, I'd love to get like a surprise party. I imagine Keanu Reeves and Salma Hayek (who share my b-days with me) are having more lavish days than me. But I honestly don't care. All I really ask is for a few bridal checks to come in, maybe a b-day check from a relative that's more than $25, not too strenuous of a shooting day and some long overdue face shots from some people I met online. Wish me a happy b-day please. Let's hope the crappy compression coil doesn't snap on me and we all have to abandon ship to keep from freezing/suffocationg.
