Summer........boring

This summer is a complete drag! Its funny, sometimes when doing blogs, I like to type what great things are going on. Yet that is kinda hard when for the last few weeks, nothing seems to be not at all going good. Anyways, on our last day of school,which was about 2 weeks ago, our school went crazy because someone wrote something threatening on the walls of the bathroom, so they checked us before we got in. Not that I'm against security measures, but seriously I felt like I was in a prison during the last day of school. Almost all the teachers eavesdropped on our conversations. This gave me a feeling of extreme discomfort. Not that I was talking about anything bad, its just its kinda of awkward for a teacher to overhear a conversation about anime. Anyways, when they checked us, they did not check our pockets or bags. They checked our books. They flipped through my one comic I was reading and gave me this face that spoke "Your parents let you read this" and "You wierdo" BTW I was reading a volume of Naruto, sadly they happened to flip to Sexy No Jitsu. Guess the security guards did not find it funny. Then as a joke my one friend who was reading my copy of Dragonspell said, that it was a bomb. I laughed for I hoped that one of my teachers who knows me would understand that me and my friends are just crazy and ADHD. Yet one of the teachers came over and said to my friend to not joke about  matters. Well enough ranting, other than the fact that no one will hire me, I can't go to Otakon, the Fantasy Fiction Tour might not stop in PA, and my siblings are getting on my nerves. Well at least I have the new Harry Potter book to look foward to oh... and Dragonfire.

School a drag, but life at home great

I had a pretty bad week, first my Wireless USB port which allows me to go online on my computer broke, pratically half the school thinks I'm gay even though I'm not, I got a F in Health b/c I really dislike the teacher who treats the class like a major class. I mean she assigned a 2 page paper, for a minor, I did it but forgot it b/c i had some much other more important homework, I asked  if I could turn it in late but she said no. Hmmm what do you expect from her, I mean she pratically hates me b/c I read books during her class. My grades are all dropping, most of my friends hate me for no pacticular reason,I am really unhappy right now, for some reason every winter I feel really unhappy and depressed, hmm, well do not want this blog to turn into a rant so I better stop. Anyways, I am doing pretty well on my novel, Not!, I am really insecure about my writing so, I rewrote my first chapter over 29 times. I just can not seem to get it right. I have started watching Bleach and so far I love it, even though it follows the usual Shonen formula, it has enough deviations to make it interesting. February has not been all the terrible, I went to the Dir En Grey concert, which was absolutely amazing, while i did not catch Kyo's water bottle or guitar pick, I did get an autograped Diru poster. It was signed by Toshiya. Anyways, the crowd was suprisingly friendly, I left my bookbag and left to go to starbucks to keep warm for it was the coldest day this year in Philly, when I got back my stuff was still there. Also I met like 10 girls who all wanted my phone number. Ackward! Not used to that as at my school all the girls think I am gay. They also think I am too thin,bony, and unathletic. Anyways, I really in all am enjoying watching anime on youtube, reading manga at Borders, and reading about 3 books per week. Hope March goes alot better!

My Fantasy book I am working on

Summary of The Chronicles of Dragon Bearth Book 1: Dragonheart
Please be aware that I have gone through revising the plot for this story many times, so many it is not even funny, I have written about forty different plots and prologues and first chapters. I became so frustrated that I believed that writing was not my calling; I prayed so hard to ask God to indicate to me what he wants me to write and if this was the right time. No answer except for a whole slew of images of a world where elves who were Christians had guardian dragons and magic powers given to them by a god with the name of Boaz. I imagined that each time a person became a Christian in my story like in Jesus’ potter parable; Boaz used a certain type of ritual molded and made each person new. But the world was oh so dark because Boaz’s brother created from a combination of the blood of Boaz and the hearts of two eternal dragons who felt Boaz the creator of the world of elves Isithar was too powerful and felt they as Boaz should have powers and rule over Isithar. So they self created Seth, an evil incarnation of Boaz who will stop at nothing to stop people from following Boaz and having a close relationship with him. This is just the basis for my series! Be aware even this plot is still tentative and the summary down below also of the first book. Please criticize as I still think the plot to be bad. The plot came below to me toady as I thought of my own journey of faith and how it would look in a fantasy world. Be aware that the more an elf sins, their skin turns black then their heart turns black only if they completely commit blasphemy against Boaz, there is more to this concept, but pretty much when I came up with it, I was playing Kingdom Hearts. Also the series will be a trilogy. Well here is the summary;

Macreba, a young clear skinned elf is born into a world of treachery and darkness. Abandoned and alienated by all because of his kindness and clear skin. Macreba feels hopeless and does not understand why life is even worth living. The only thing keeping him going on is his passionate, undying love for a brown haired, clear skinned elf by the name of Jeule who too like Macreba is abandoned and alienated by all.
Hope comes though as five eternal dragons only seen by the eyes of Jeule and Macreba comes and destroys the town of dark skinned, sinful elves in which both Macreba and Jeule live. Jeule and Macreba find themselves the only survivors and happen upon 2 triangular circlets which shines a thin ray of light if both lights from the circlets are combined.
With this Jeule and Macreba must venture out of the town of Vadakar and into the darkened lands where the only things living are those who will stop at nothing to stop Jeule and Macreba from reaching where the ray of light from the combined circlets are pointed towards.
Treachery and hard decisions come upon both Jeule and Macreba. Their inner selves will be challenged till they reach the point in which the ray of light is pointing them towards.
For what lies at the end will be something far greater than both could ever imagine. They will soon face a great destiny which both of them have never imagined.
