Vanished. It is sad. I still check back here, but more often than not no one else has.
It has been a bit for me, too, actually. I'm back to working full-time for the summer, and lots of days I'm exhausted after work.

I occassionally pop in, but generally I don't write unless the juices are flowing. Even just goofing off and RPing is taking too much oomph lately. Hopefully I'll wake up soon.

FINALLY!!! We have our new 'puter! (Also, this site now underlines words when you spell them wrong... nice touch.)
So yeah, I haven't been here or anywhere else online for like three or four weeks now. But now I'm back! ;D

I'm here!!! So sorry I haven't been on lately! Life caught up in a big woosh. My computer got wiped. I save all my files on an external hard drive, so nothing's lost, but all my bookmarks are gone. I have 2 poodle puppies who are the most adorable things...when they sleep. And if I try and go in my room to work they start crying so I've permanently moved into the family room with them. (I keep them in the family room and kitchen area so I know where they are and then they can't chew and destroy stuff that's not meant to be a toy...all shoes are now kept in a box.) Then there was the ACT test 2 days ago. Bleh. And yesterday I finally decided to sort out all my books in my closet that were everywhere because I was tired of walking on books to get anything out. (I ran out of shelves.) Now I have a precarious stack of books to sell and a bunch of empty notebooks that I found. Amazing what you can find in a closet. So, pretty much my life story for the couple months. Oh, along with summer art classes and making a business card for my dad and trying to make a website for him. We'll see. That reminds me, I need to make a Father's Day card. Now, I am determined to come on here more often, because this forum is awesome and deserves more active members. I am also determined to finish my half-complete stories that have been hanging around collecting dust. Anyway. How have you guys been?

Doin' rather well personally. I've been working now that school's out, and spending more time jamming out to music than writing these days Just ordered a bass guitar and shortly will have a portable recording system. The ACT on saturday was a pain though... Glad to know that you have a life again Spectre I should try and get back here more often. I've got the time. I must say, I do miss Axle and Beauty...

Did you take the writing part? I heard you can't eat for the whole time... Hope the bass comes in soon. Yeah, where have those guys been?

Just have to say, I love how everyone on this site always seems to vanish at the same time, and then everyone comes back all at once. *throws reunion party* Sounds like you've been crazy-busy, Endovia! I'm glad you're back now, though. I'm looking forward to reading those stories when you've dusted them off. How did the ACT go for those of you who took it recently? I think I've blocked out all memory of taking mine. I remember one brief moment of sitting there, waiting for them to pass the exams out, and I remember sitting in the car afterward. Heh. Of course, that was like two, two and a half years ago. (Oh, geez. Now I feel old.) I've been doing well, for the most part... Done with the school year for over a month now, but I'm working full time at a gas station, so that's exhausting. I'm (still) suffering from writer's block, and yes it has been over a year now. I mostly just write I disagreeignments for classes. Please, something inspire me! On the bright side, I got really good grades last semester - I even got an A in a mixed undergrad and graduate level class with a professor who's pretty tough (he's the one I had for my prose studio freshman year - the one I talked about on a couple of my short stories because he was so hard on me). I've discovered a love for images that tell stories, which has only cemented my desire to be a screenwriter. I miss Axle and Beauty, too... And Ruger. And Waypoint, who most/all of you probably don't remember. She stopped coming after she got married, but she was awesome.

Sidenote: ACT is icky. First time I took it I left like a third of it blank because I never got to it.

Yeah, we're weird like that- suddenly all showing up. Man... THAT's your bass?! It's awesome! Seriously, if you turn the picture to the side, it looks like a shark! With a fin and everything!

Ironic. First thing Luke taught me to play was the Jaws theme ACT... shleb. Had a nasty gut ache and didn't finish any of the sections... the writing prortion was a whiz though

I'm sorry, Genesis... Are you planning to take it again? Bad luck that you didn't feel well on that particular day. I took the ACT once, decided my score was fine, and refused to even consider taking it again. I'm pretty sure I finished all the sections (except maybe science), though.

Kind of funny. We're like a flock of birds that migrate and then come back. Yeah I felt like the practice test was easier than the real ACT. Kinda weird. What's really annoying is, say on math, I know how to do the problems I just don't have enough time. :/ Did you guys get an extra Test 5 on your ACT? I thought that was so dumb. I was so sick of it by then I just wanted to eat and/or sleep. That's awesome, Sapphire! And maybe you'll be inspired by my puppies? i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk266/endovia/stuff/DPP_0011.jpgi282.photobucket.com/albums/kk266/endovia/stuff/Picture2-3.pngI hope they come back. I miss them.

They're CUTE! ...and fluffy. Remarkable how often those traits coincide. Great, now I want to hug someone and there's no one around
