BOOM!!!

About an hour ago, I was just sitting in front of my computer screen when a big flash of lightning lit up the sky. Seconds afterward, a nuclear bomb-sized round of thunder blast the earth, shook the windows, table, assorted objects sitting on the table, the floor above me, ME.

Let's just say I was scared sh*tless.

After I stopped peeing my pants, I texted one of my friends, who loves thunder storms. This is part of the conversation we had:

RS: R u feeling this?

Friend: Hahaha YES how cud u not!!!! It sounded like a bomb was going off!!!!!!!!!! Man this is exciting!!! :D


Let's just say I'll never be as brave as she'll be.

Anyway, I'll soon be wearing a t-shirt saying "I survived the Seattle Nuclear Thunder Storm of 2013". ;)

Today was Awesome!

Hi! Today was a pretty great day (considering yesterday's post :/). Why, you ask (or not, but I give you no choice)?:
  • I actually wrote something last night and today
  • I (finally!) got some sleep
  • Writing class didn't seem short at all today
  • I'm slowly developing character/plot/whathaveyou
  • I finally am watching Doctor Who Series 5!!! :D
 
So, overall, I'd say that:
 
Have a nice day!

Thoughts from.a "Half-Assed" Writer

I'm feeling completely useless today, and I have no idea why. As a writer, I'm still a novice in a classroom where my friends have more than a couple of scattered scenes. Some of them have been working on their novels for months, years even, and where am I? Back at square one, because my attention span can only take a week while working on something before it cuts off short. I hate my brain. Why in the name of God do I feel like I still need more sleep while I'm drinking my f**king coffee. I'll never finish anything independent in my life ever. I'll never get a job that'll pay well due to my work incompetence and my parents will hate me. Why can't I think of anything to f**king write about? Am I actually going to be a writer when I grow up? Doesn't look like it right now. Why do I even take these classes if I don't write more than a couple of measly scenes that aren't even qualified as actual chapters. God, I'm such a baby. I'm restless and don't have any idea on what I'm f**king going to do next. I need sleep, and exercise. Why is this day going away so fast? Will the rest of the week be like this? Why do I even go to these classes when it'll be like this every day? WHY CAN'T THIS BE A NORMAL DAY???!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 
 
Sorry...

Things You Need to Do to Become an Official Writer-to-Be from a Fellow Writer

  1. A pen and notebook
    • For jotting out-of-the-blue ideas, family trees, character studies, etc.
  2. A laptop (optional)
    • Recording your ideas on a hard drive is very important for looking professional to publishers
  3. "Writer's Swag"
    • A pen tucked behind your ear; intelligent-looking glasses (real or fake); everyday wear, like that t-shirt you own with the kitten that says "Hang in there, baby" and your favorite sweatpants, somewhat-untidy hair, etc.
  4. "Writer's Face"
    • That scrunched-up facial expression and intense stare when you're rapidly typing a character interaction into your laptop and that overly-happy expression when you figure something that is amazing that applies to your novel
  5. Coffee
    • Whether it's plain coffee, coffee with cream, a macchiato, a cappuccino, or that really complicated drink you ordered from Starbucks, good ideas don't come easily when you're just starting in the morning and/or when you're writing in the dead of night
  6. Shutting yourself in your room/any place that unleashes your creativeness
    • You need concentration, not a common place where noises are barging into your Creative Zone, unless you need that kind of thing to work effectively
  7. Join a writer's group
    • This is where you can share your writing to people who know what you're going through as a writer and can helpfully contribute suggestions to make your work of art great. Plus, you may find your fellow nerd herd, depending on what you're interested in
  8. NEVER. STOP. WRITING.
    • Self-explanatory. Never stop loving what you create with writing, and certainly never stop practicing your craft. I get it if you need a break because you can't think of anything, but you should have moments of inspiration to get you back into the swing of things

Have a nice day, and never stop creating!
:heart:, RS

1500+ Pageviews!!!

Celebratory sparkles for your enjoyment! <3
YOU GUYS! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR OVER 1500 PAGEVIEWS! I couldn't ask for any more loyal fans and faceless friends than you people, who've (hopefully) stuck with me from pretty much the very beginning. I hope you continue to follow me through to the very end of time.

Thanks again, you guys. :)
:mucho-hearts:, RS


'Ello There! :)

'Ello, good CVON viewers! Sorry I haven't been posting as much as I have in the past since I've been writing in my totally awesome writing classes. To make up for it, I'll tell you a bit about what I'm writing:
  1. It has magic kinesises in it
  2. It somewhat-involves a creepy antagonist bastard screwing everything up
  3. It involves some pseudo-references to other books/movies that have already been copywrited (to me, anyway) that I will edit out eventually
  4. It involves a beginning, a middle, and an end <NO F***ING WAY, RS!!! ;)>

So, yeah, that's all I really have at this point (well, I'm lying a bit :P). I'll leave you with this little information. Also I'll leave with you with a gif of David Tennant sneezing forever. You're welcome.



:heart:, RS

p.s. Support this blog. It's freaking amazing.

A Potential Opportunity

Hey, guys. Ever since I could read and understand the familiar shapes of words and sentences and paragraphs, I've enjoyed creating stories of my own. Even now, I still love to write stories and try to create (and fail to finish) potential realities and try to tell stories that haven't told before. But, looking at it as a career perspective, it won't pay any of the bills (at least, not until I've sold my first bestseller ;)). So, with that in mind, I've looked at another potential opportunity for a future job where I would have to work hard without being stuck at a soul-sucking corporate desk job that will drain the fun out of my life. You want to find out what it is? Too bad. You have no choice.

I want to become a voice actor.

 
Why I chose this career option is because of three things about me:
  1. I used to be in a bunch of school plays when I was younger. I liked pretending to be someone else and being part of an active story (there's the writer in me). Although, I stopped being in anymore plays because of the over-excessive homework and because I was burnt out of having to practice blocking, and lines, and choreography over and over and over and over. I suppose it's the same for being a voice actor, but I can't know that for sure. Plus, I'm not performing in front of an entire audience of people (unless I'm at a convention with a live mic and hundreds of people staring at me :/).
  2. I've always enjoyed watching cartoons, especially now. Whenever I watch a series of cartoons, I always try to pick out the actor's voice behind the character and see what other shows they've done and eventually distinguish their voices from any cartoon show. It just seems like a fun concept to me to inhabit the personality and voice of a certain character and bring it to life using your own vocal chords.
  3. I feel like I'm pretty good at changing my voice to fit certain beings. For example, I can imitate a cat's meow in at least two different tones and hissing. If I eventually watch a character from a show and listen to the way they speak at least a couple of times, I can almost imitate it perfectly. Well, I'm kind of blowing myself up a little bit (a lot), but I feel confident enough that I can stand up to the challenge of becoming a voice actor. All I need to do is go through more Drama courses and work on my vocal chords so they can be the best interchangeable vocal chords they can be.
 
Anyway, I've said enough for one day. I hope you have a fantastic rest of the morning/afternoon/evening/night wherever you may live. :)
:heart:, RS
 
p.s. This looks really fun, too!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBzRmWeC6Ds

Something Entertaining

My fellow Whovians, I found this yesterday. Feel free to squee in a particularly nerdy fashion.

I MUST LEAVE NOW! MY CREATIVENESS NEEDS ME!!! ;)

:heart:, RS

p.s. WHY THE FRICK IS DAVID TENNANT SO FRICKING ADORKABLE???!!!



 
 
/)^3^(\ -- "So...AWESOME!!!"
Noteable quotations: "Now say: 'Thanks. YOU'RE the cat's ME-OW!'" :D

Happy Bastille Day in France!!!

224 years ago, the 80% of the population of Paris stormed the Bastille and tore it down. This marked the beginning of the French Revolution, which is what made France a democracy today. I hope the festivities this year were French-tastic!

Anyway, I'll leave you to it, then. Better start writing something, because I have writing classes TOMORROW!!! :D
:heart:, RS

p.s. Cory Monteith... that was unexpected. R.I.P., man!

A Tribute to Doctor Who

Damn it all, why are you so amazing?
Other shows don't even come close to the immense fandom
Carried in our hearts for the rest of our natural lives,
Telling us of the passion, the heartbreak,
Of a peculiar man,
Racing around time and space in a mad blue box

Whatever comes, this love for something seeming so meaningless will go on
However long this show has left,
Our hearts and souls belong to you, Doctor Who.

Written while listening to "Song for Fifty" by Murray Gold during the BBC Doctor Who 2013 Prom

I FREAKING LOVE DOCTOR WHO!!!

As the title states above, I freaking LOVE Doctor Who! (as if it wasn't obvious...)
The reason for this is because I'm listening to the Doctor Who Prom on BBC Radio as loud as my Surface speakers (and parents) can stand it.

And right now, tears are literally coming out of my eyes because Matt Smith is on stage. ;_;

I F**KING LOVE THIS SHOW!!! :D


Anyway, I'm pretty sure I'm going to go through whatever Doctor Who seasons I have later tonight, since I'll have nothing better to do.
 
Anyway, I'll leave you alone now. If you're a Whovian like me then I'll give you the link for the LIVE RADIO FEED!!! :D
 
Have a fantastic rest of the day!
Allons-y, Geronimo, and etc., RS

p.p.s. I will go to one of these things before I die, I swear to God...
p.p.s.s. LIVE PICTURE FEEDS!!! :D: http://storify.com/PCJ_PCJonathan/doctor-who-proms-picture-stream

You Know What Really Grinds my Gears...

F**KING. ADARA.


Well, it's not Adara I hate. The thing I hate about Adara is that it needs to be connected to an Xbox LIVE account in order to continue the next episode of gameplay.

And guess who doesn't have the f**king stupid Xbox LIVE account. >-<

Anyway, I'll try to get one in the actual morning hours of the day, since I'm tired out of my mind for playing the stupid Episode One all the way through.

Thank you for tolerating this late-night rant of exhausted frustration.
:heart:, RS

p.s. Remind me to start writing the next installment of "Akuma No Seigi" tomorrow at the earliest. Thank you.

Zzzzzzzz...

Because I Have Nothing Better to do with My Life...




This is me when I'm having a full-on nerd-gasm.
Also when I found out that Gravity Falls was FINALLY off of the frickin' hiatus.
 
What I'm saying is that I totally empathize with humonculus2, or whatever-her-real-name-is.
 

 LIVE YOUR LIFE BY EXPRESSING THE HAPPINESS OF YOUR SOUL THROUGH DANCING!!!

 
Sorry...
Screw it: I'M NOT! :P

Have a good rest of your (hopefully sunny and summer-y) day!
:heart:, RS
 
p.s. Here's the Gravity Falls theme song:

p.p.s. If you don't like the show, I'll force myself to respect that, but if you hate on the show for no good reason, saying it's lame and stupid shit, etc., I WILL FIND WHERE YOU LIVE AND TEAR YOUR HOUSE AND YOUR BODY APART. O_O
Thanks for listening!

A Patch of Amazingness!


Is is good or bad that I like this song?

Because I think it's flipping awesome!


I just saw "Equestria Girls", can't you tell? ;)
Total GENIUS!!! Good job, DHX Media.

Waiting for the August DVD release is going to be torture! :(

Just something to brighten up your day (hopefully).
:heart:, RS

I'm BAAAAACK!!! :D

Bonjour, tout le monde!
After spending a week in France, coming back, suffering jetlag while celebrating the 4th of July with family and friends (happy 4th, btw), and trying to upload the hundreds (and I do mean hundreds) of photos I took whilst in France, I'm glad to say that I'm back on U.S. soil! I'm glad to be back in a familiar time zone, where most of my material possessions are, the most important and most thought-of during the trip being mon lit ("my bed", for those who are lazy enough not to check Google Translate). Surprisingly, I didn't miss my parents as much as I thought I would, which was good, because I didn't suffer any great emotional pain that would have made the trip worse.

So, I'm glad to be back home and in my own comfy, familiar bed again, with my loving family and friends. Thank you for checking in to see if I as still alive and not kidnapped like in that movie Taken. Now I have to start/continue writing something, 'cause I have writing classes in a week! :D

Je t'aime, mes amies de l'Internet! Merci, France, pour un bon voyage!
:heart:, RS

p.s. I may or may not post the travel journal that I brought with me to document my trip. I'll just have to let you know if I have the attention span/interest to do so.

p.p.s. If the city of Paris is supposed to be referenced to as a woman, and it contains the iconic phalic symbol of the Eiffel Tower, doesn't that make Paris a hermaphrodite? :/
Just something for you to ponder...
