this was a colaborative story that i and my closest friend were working on for a bit. i'd write until i hit a writer's block, e-mail the file back to her, and she'd write till she hit a block, and back and forth this thing went. we tried to write it in such a way that it flowed seamlessly between...

(A classmate recommended this story to me. It's one of her favorite short stories.) I will wait for her in the yard that Maggie and I made so clean and wavy yesterday afternoon. A yard like this is more comfortable than most people know. It is not just a yard. It is like an extended living room....
Thursday, November 08, 2007 UPDATE on Evan Current mood: cheerful As many of you know I had to take Evan to the infectious doctor last week. They were ruling out a few things with him since he is prone to staph infections. Well the doctor decided to run some blood work. So yesterday I finally got...
like the subject says, random RP inspired dribbles of my crossdressing hot zombie man. n.n note: most of these don't happen in any particular order, and probably contradict one another. too bad. note to the note: one dribble in particular is about using drugs, not crack or dope or anything like...

1-16-2008 As the days keep rolling the Spanish language is getting easier and easier. I am beginning to understand, with more ease, Gloria, Francisco (my grammar professor, whom I had a very difficult time understanding in the beginning), and the other people I encounter in day to day life. At...
Before I forget, happy belated Chinese New Year to all! I didn't get to do anything special to celebrate, and I didn't have any of the necessary ingredients to make classic Chinese New Year desserts (I only had a navel orange in the fridge... that counts right? haha), so unfortunately, as much as...
Deborah “And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.” --Judges 4:4 KJV Across the various translations of the Bible, Deborah's opening line remains the same. It gives many clues about her not only as a woman but how the recorders of history regarded her. She...
I loved this episode so much I want to marry it and force it to make me pancakes in the morning. Plot: Poor Kojima loses horribly despite everyone cheering him on, and it's up to Kousaku to avenge him in his next match. No problem, if he can stay off the taiyaki. Meanwhile at the convent, Sister...

That's my story, and by golly, I'm sticking to it. :) So... I'm here now, and excited to post these...

Sure, we may have won a format war, but today still sucks...so far. Granted, it is only 8:23 in the morning, but it's already been a pretty awful day. It's been one of those mornings where you can actually list all the things that have gone wrong: woke up at 6:45 when I had to leave at 7 (I had been...
For some reason I have been procrastinating getting this letter out. So, today I will share with you PART I our most interesting adventure so far in S.E. Asia (I will break it up so that this is not too long and boring, and also, so I can get part of it out). Over our long winter break (the children...
On Sunday, December 30th we flew from Nha Trang to Saigon. Here we met up with some old neighbors from Shanghai that moved to Vietnam over the summer, the Kosko family. The Kosko family driver, Mr. Dou (pronounced dough) came to greet us at the airport, and got us settled into our hotel. Our friend...
