Heather's journal.

The Host!

2008-05-14T21:18:00Z

I know it's been quite some time since I've posted, but things have been so very hectic lately. Starting off with a ton of work that i had to get done for physical science honors in within a week (yes, I waited until the last minute. I have no one to blame but myself). I also have been busy reading Stephenie Meyer's lates novel The Host, which is so much better than I would have thought. "Science fiction for those who don't like science fiction", indeed. I couldn't put this book down. I stayed up until five a.m. in the morning reading this, fighting the urge to sleep because I couldn't tear myself away from it. It was worth the sleep deprivation, I must say. The characters are so strong and so well developed. The plot was also fantastic. I won't go into much more detail, because I know there are those who haven't read it and I know that if someone were to spoil it for me that way, I would be devastated.
But all I can say is that you should go get it right now.

twilight fanfic, lonely days :(

2008-04-08T04:19:06Z

this is the second night in a row that he hasn't called.
i'm speaking of my best friend, currently.
normally that would phase anyone else, but he usually calls every night, and i'm starting to get lonely.
it's also been two days since i've heard any of my friends' voices. this is why i do not like spring break. it leaves me terribly alone. school may be dull, but at least i do have people to talk to.
i've tried calling him a couple of times, and no one answered. so i figured texting other people would suffice, but it doesn't.
i'm pretty sure no one will talk to me on here at this time, either.
so i'm stuck rambling to myself.
i wrote a poem a few weeks ago that was inspired by twilight.
if there's any possible way that i can find it, i'll post on here,
and hopefully i can get some constructive criticism.
until then, here's the link to my twilight fanfiction, After Twilight: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2903199/1/After_Twilight
read it, and tell me what you think please. i really, really, really would appreciate it.
thanksss.

today was a bust. i did finish twilight. and as i forgot to bring any of my other books with me, i'll probably be reading it again during the next week. or, hopefully, i'll be able to go to the bookstore and find another book to occupy my time.

tunes.

2008-04-07T15:23:50Z

i got a little bored, so i made this for my page :)

today is dragging by very slowly. i had coffee and biscuits this morning, now i'm wasting time on the computer when i could be doing something else. hm, but there isn't anything particularly that i'd like to do today anyway. i'll probably end up looking for more icons
and possibly finding another layout. hopefully i'll come across a banner that i can use as well. maybe even one that will match my icons. :)

i've got plenty of time, so...start a conversation with me
in this entry?
i'd appreciate it

twilight, possible trips on spring break.

2008-04-07T01:20:40Z

Hmm, so today was extremely boring. there was nothing to do but get on the computer and, of course, read. i received a book suggestion, and until i have time to check it out, i'll be rereading the works in my personal library shelf.
my book of choice currently is twilight. although i've read it so many times, i wanted to read it again. i've reread all of the series in the past two weeks. eclipse and twilight are my absolute favorites. i do love new moon, but not as much as the others.
when i'm done with twilight, i'll be reading a seperate peace for english honors.
so far it's pretty good. i do prefer jane eyre, which we read a few months ago, to it.

i'm on spring break, so i have much too much time on my hands. i'll probably be hanging out around the house. a trip to the beach is possible, and a trip to the nearby theme park. i really want to ride some rollercoasters, seeing as i haven't in a while.

anyways, that's all for today :)

mall, boredom, more boredom. book suggestions?

2008-04-06T02:04:05Z

So, today went by really slow. I woke up around 8 am and got on the computer for a bit, I checked my myspace and had a few picture comments that made me happy, but not much else. Afterwards I went downstairs and took a shower. Later I regretted taking a shower so early, because in doing so I missed getting coffee.
But then it was time to go. We headed to the mall for a while and looked around, I lost my dad at American Eagle, which was very frustrating, and it took me a while to find him. I didn't get anything because I spent so much on my hair yesterday :(
There wasn't really anything to get anyways.

I am upset that I didn't get to go to the bookstore,
but then again, I didn't really know what I wanted.
does anyone have any book suggestions?

Later I spent some time with my best friend and then headed home.
Now it's ten something, and I really have nothing to do.

out of school :)

2008-04-04T15:58:34Z

So, I've talked my mom into letting me skip school today in order to spend some time with my dad, which is great, because now i don't have to worry about taking the map test in geography, or the Seperate Peace test in English today. I'm getting my hair done later. I'm not sure how yet, but it will look good hopefully. I'm not screwing up my hair when it covers my abnormally large forehead.
Anyways, at the moment i'm currently sitting in my grandmother's chair in front of the computer, impatiently waiting on my father to finish shaving so that we can leave. And by the second i'm becoming so much more greatful for the fact that i don't have to worry about facial hair. This morning has been good so far. Due to the fact that i had muffins and coffee, hence the energy and motivation for writing this entry. I like my layout now, which is good because i don't have to worry about the frustration of finding one nad editing it correctly.

my dad's finally done,
so this is the longest entry i can write at the moment
bye everyone

welcome me back?

2008-04-02T23:14:18Z

wow.
this is the first post i've made in over a year, it seems.
i would check the dates to make sure it's accurate,
but i'm too lazy. :)

i'm going to be updating this soon.
and posting more.
perhaps to make up for my absence.
hopefully i'll be able to edit the layout
to my taste.
so far it's proving to be difficult,
and i'm not sure i have the patience.

anyways, this is Heather.
you can still call me Lu Lu if you want,
but it doesn't seem like anyone does anymore.

The Dancing Rat

2006-08-27T02:41:27Z

Ahh, it seems so long since my last post. But maybe it's because I've been so busy! School has officially begun, sad, I know, and a dear friend and I (lblossom_doll) have started our very own Twilight and New Moon forum. Which brings me back to another thrilling piece of information. I have read New Moon! And I must say, I belive it is as good as the first, if not better. I loved it!

Today was a day of horror. Not only did I not do anything I liked, but I was forced to endure four hours at Chucky Cheese's *winces* Oh, the horror! The dancing rat that also sings and is good at video games, which is irregular for a rat, frightens me to no avail. I won't even describe it, tis' too horrible! And it brings back memories of today. Another thing I did today, hmmm....does spying on my maw maw's new neighbors count? Yes, I think it would *laughs* It wasn't really spying, just so you know, I was simply very curious and wanted to get a look at a certain someone who was moving in. But I won't go in to detail, you probably don't want to hear it anyhow.

One thing you will like to here is this, soon, I will be getting a new layout, and I've recently aquired a photo program that allows me to make icons/banners and such. So there is a possibility that you will see some graphics on here very soon. Wish me luck. And I've got a new idea for my journal. I may start posting some of my writing. I've played around with the idea in my head, I still am actually, and I might just do it. Tell me what you think of that idea! I'd love to hear from some of you, if anyone actually reads my page *laughs*

p.s. IF you want to visit my site, just click on the link on the top of this page, or in my userinfo. And here is one of my new icons! It's not very good, and I have a better one, but I can't find my better one, but rest assured, it will be up soon.

The Feeling of Sand Between My Toes

2006-07-17T14:49:19Z

It's been over a month, I know. Which is awful. I've been very lazy, but I was correct! When I said my summer would look up, I was not lieing. And I was not just assuming. One word, slightly simple, very short. Beach. But oh, it holds so much meaning, that word! It means...sand, sunscreen, tangled hair, tanning skin, flip flops, bikinis, family. Ah! I just love that word. And as you've probably already guessed, that's where I've been. Not the whole time, but for the past week. And it was great. No more pale heather, nope, I'm brown! Not red (surprisingly). But not too brown, not fake tanning brown. But all natural luster! I love it! I love the smell of the ocean, I love everything! *laughs*

Well, not everything. Besides the beach trip, I've been pretty much stuck inside. Except for my encounter with the lawnmower from hell *winces* Don't ask. You can, and I'll answer, but I'd rather not. *looks out window and jumps* So much SUN, so much PAIN! Grrrr.......hmm...but what becomes of a day in hell with 'the hot monster'? $56, just enough to buy myself something. Whether it be an outfit from American Eagle or a book from Barnes and Noble (most likely) It is mine. And money is so very very great. Ask anyone, they'll tell you, honest. *giggles* I'm a lunatic!

Well, there isn't anything else for me to say, so...bye!!!

Alas, weary readers, I have returned, after what seems like ages of absence. Some people wouldn't count two weeks as ages, but I do, I should have posted by now. Right? Yes, very right. But, unfortunately, my dad's computer has been messed up, after Sunday you probably won't hear from me for another week or so. Ridiculous, disheartening, maddening, excruciating. All adjectives to describe my reason of being away. I am very sorry to those of you who actually read my journal, I don't think there are many of you. But oh well, I enjoy blabbering, so that is exactly what I shall do.
Don't you know how on some streets you see people with signs that say 'will work for food' ? I think I need a sign, but mine will say 'will work for books'. And that is exactly what I have been doing. My dad has taken upon the offer of me doing housework for books. So far, I have done two weeks of work, and I have received two books!! Wonderful, fantastic, great!! More adjectives, I believe I am on a roll. Apart from reading, watching television, writing, breathing, eating, and sleeping, the Adventures of Heather have yet to begin. But fear not my dear friends, soon I will embark on my on personal adventures! Now, time for another subject. Fortune cookies. Sometimes their messages are inspiring, helpful. And sometimes cheery. Recently I opened one, and the message made me rejoice. It said.......'you look pretty.' I laughed so hard when I read that, you wouldn't even believe it. But, I did greatly enjoy that fortune. If you would still call it a fortune, it's more a statement I think. But oh well, maybe I am destined to look pretty. If that is the case, I am ecstatic. I am posting past midnight, so you can tell, I tend to stay up later than most. I can sleep, it's just....I like getting on at all times that I can. And this is one of those times. So, I don't really know what else to say, I will try to post soon. And I promise you, the next entry will be much more exciting. Seeing as this one was a dreading bore. Feel joyful, because I am trying. Good night or good day, whichever suits you.

hkggirl @ 2006-05-30T00:46:00

2006-05-30T04:54:37Z

Alright, so it's early in the morning, and I should be asleep. But I'm way to jumpy for that. Tomorrow, nothing new. But still, I feel anzious, can't say that I know why though. It's just one of those feelings you get. You know? Where you just know something is going to happen. the question is, will it be good or bad. I'm hoping for good, because since the helicopter ride, nothing exciting has happened. I've got new of a beach trip though, a vacation in the making. Freshly being planned, which is nice, for me anyway. I stayed with my aunt last night, while she tried to keep me up telling me that her house was 'haunted'. But I'm not and idiot, I know when people are fibbing. I'm not as gullable as they'd like to think. Okay, I am a little, and clumbsy, and pale, and goofy. But is that a reason to joke around on me? In my aunt's word, and I quote 'I wouldn't do it if I didn't love you'. Sometimes, I wonder, do I prefer being loved and picked on opposed to being unloved? I guess I do, no one wan't to be unloved. Unless you're one of those cat ladies, who have almost thirty cats and have never made an attempt at love. Which brings me back to another topic. This Lullaby, by Sarah Dessen. The main theme is, indeed, love. So, the main character doesn't believe in it, but what is beleiving anyway? Explain it to me. Well, now, I suppose I am exhausted. So goodnight, or good day. Whichever suits you.

Again, and again, and again

2006-05-27T18:30:47Z

Yes, I'm already back, and if you read my last entry you know why; because I have nothing to do, at all. I've made a new friend on aim and I've gotten into roleplaying. And of course, I'm roleplaying Twilight. I'm Edward, but next time...I get to be Bella. Not that Edward isn't interesting, it's just that I'm a girl, not a guy. You can understand that, it's hard acting like you're of the opposite sex. But...like I said, I'm up for anything. A challenge is greatly needed. But oh!! I did do something today. I rode a helicopter! I know, I'm a spaz about it, but it was great. I love flying, flying in anything. A jet, a hellicopter, flying with my arms. There's no difference, hahahah. Well, there is, but I'm not thinking about that right now. So, I did one exciting thing...now it's time for me to do more exciting things. Got to an amusement park, ride a rollercoaster, lose a pair of shoes. That doesn't sound especially great, but it is, oh it is. Especially when you're bored out of your mind. Now back to books, I am desperately longing New Moon. And I'm ecstatic by its release, which will, hopefully be soon. Though I know its not coming out in November, I have connections. Hahahah, not that all of you care. You might, but I don't know. Crushes, I've got a big one on Henry Cavill. He is....very attractive. Me and my friend Brittany were picture searching the other day, searching for good pictures of Henry. And with the help of her family member, we found a ton. And apart from laughing my guts out, I obtained a yummy picture of Henry. I will treasure it. Today, I'm in a better mood. And that....is great. So, maybe my summer will start looking up. I've already got two trips to the beach on my agenda, what else awaits my time? As if right now, I'm not sure. But surprises are great, and I need a surprise.

I'm so bored, I'll think I'll try to fly

2006-05-26T18:07:26Z

So....It's summer vacation. I should be...in Las Vegas with my uncle, in Myrtle Beach soaking up the sun, at a bookstore, anywhere but here..on the computer...at my grandmother's house. A boring day, and so far, a boring summer. But just you wait, soon I'll be having a blast, well, I hope I will be. As things are heating up outside and on television, I'm staying the same....the same temperature, the same Heather, the same everything. But, that's not so bad, is it? Hehehehheh, maybe it is. But I'm too bored to care. I'm willing to try anything. Skydiving, parachuting, even flying; just so that I'll have something to do. Sure, the internet is great, but where's the fun in that, the adventure, the adrenaline? Nowhere in sight, unless you're looking at pictures of people who are doing exactly what you wish you could be doing, which is depressing all the same. I feel like a fish, floating in the same bowl everyday, looking at my surroundings, breathing, eating, sleeping, and doing nothing but what I have to do to survive. Which...is dull, to say the least. But, alright, I'll be good. Staring at the computer screen, the television, the bowl of cereal I haven't finished, everything. And I won't whimper when my friends tell me they're having a blast, and I won't say no when asked to go swimming, and I won't get a bad attitude when people ask me why I'm not out doing fun things. I'll just shake my head, "I'm not now, but I will be soon." And maybe, just maybe, I'll try to smile. If the muscles of my mouth aren't frozen from lack of use. I hope everyone else's summer is going well, even if you're not on vacation, but just promise me......that you'll have fun enough for the both of us. If that's possible. And make up for my boring time, comment on how it's going, it'll cheer me up, greatly. Goodbye all, and farewell.

Da Vinci Code and Homorama (Cullen house)

2006-05-22T20:30:50Z

I'm back, and dispite my promise to write sooner, I didn't. Bad Heather, bad! Well, I've just had a lot on my mind and a lot to do. But now, I'm officially out of school, and I can spend most, if not all, of my time doing whatever I like. So, that means, I have more time to write journal entries. Expect a lot, because I have nothing to do this summer. Recently I came upon a new book, The Da Vinci Code, by Dan Brown. Since I've read it, my mind has been circulating with thoughts. Thoughts about whether the ideas stressed in the book could be true and whether I believe them or not. Seeing as I'm an agnostic, the book didn't really pose as offending to me. But to others, it has. Rallies and uproars at movie theaters and court issues. And what do I think about all of this? Nothing that would show favor to the calm or the outraged. Sometimes I think that it is silly to be so.....offended by a book that is fiction, and sometimes I think that the people who are angry have every right to be so. After reading this book, I've watched a lot of shows about it on the history channel, and make no mistake, there were many shows on the topic. One even lasted four hours, I tried to watch it, but saddly, I fell asleep. Thinking that I could stay up until four a.m. watching a show on the history channel....was idiotic to a great degree. But, oh well, I tried. It's not like it won't come on again though, shows about the Da Vinci Code come on practically every night. What a good way to start up more rallies. HMPHH, that doesn't do a lot of good. Dang, things can get complicated sometimes.
Yesterday, I didn't do anything particularly amazing. Well, I did go to homorama. A kind of house show, and I got to tour million dollar homes. One that I walked through reminded me of the Cullen house (for those of you who have read Twilight) the back wall was almost completely composed of glass, and it was three stories. Very strange how things in books can show themselves in real life.

Books, books, and of course, more books!

2006-04-27T23:15:37Z

I've gotten into the Twlight obbsession much more, which I believe is reasonable because it's my favorite book and I've read it nine times. I know, that sounds idiotic, but I love Twlight. Lately I've gotten into Bella Penombra, a twlight website, and I've learned tons about Twlight. I'm totally for Emily Browning as Bella, you can tell by my background and avatar, HAHAHAHAH. And I'm always happy to learn more. Well. There are other books that I enjoy and here is a list of those books.

1~A Great and Terrible Beauty, by Libba Bray 2~Rebel Angels, by Libba Bray
3~Naughts & Crosses, by Malorie Blackman 4~The Minister's Daughter, by Julie Hearn
5~This Lullaby, by Sarah Dessen 6~The Truth about Forever, by Sarah Dessen
7~Dreamland, by Sarah Dessen 8~A Break with Charity, by Ann Rinaldi

There are tons of other books that I like but those are the ones that come to mind. I know I haven't written in a long time, but I've had a lot to do. After my last post I've thought more and more about, well, my last post. I am now strictly a beleiver. A believer in all things. I'm going to keep my mind open to things and not judge so quickly. BYE! I'll post soon.

I Wish I Wouldn't Think About Some Things

2006-03-17T00:07:33Z

I'm really starting to get better in my writing. Descriptions do make a story great. If you just write and don't describe anything not only is you writing boring, it's also short.

Enough about writing, that seems like all I ever talk about. I'm starting to think about things I've never thought about a lot before. For example, do we really exist? If you think about it we have no proof that we do. Almost every human has a pet, for example, a dog. How do we know that we're not just pets of some being that's far off. I know that sounds really crazy and that's not exactly what I'm trying to point out. I just need a better way to describe things. I guess what I meant to say is how do we know that we're even here or that the Earth is real. What if everything is an illusion. What if we're all in just a strange alternate reality and we're not really HERE. That still sounds confusing, I think I'll just drop the point.

I'm also starting to wonder if we're not the only things out there. Ghosts and witches exist so what if vampires, aliens, werewolves and all of those things exist as well. I'm starting to become a believer. I even want to believe that we're not the only things out there and that there's another world out there where things are just so much more interesting. Life on Earth just seems so boring. I want adventure, something besides a normal human life. I want to do great things. I don't want to just be born, go to school, graduate school, get a job, and die. I just want something different. Well, I've got to go.

I Have no Subject

2006-03-06T23:58:56Z

I've just realized why none of my work is as good as it could be. I don't describe things thoroughly, instead of the readers feeling like they're there they'll just feel confused. Now that I've found my flaw I can fix it! From now on my work might possibly be better! I feel great right now really, I know that sounds stupid, but I do. Most people wouldn't think it was a big deal to find out their flaws in writing but I do!
Now that I've gotten past all of the excitement I can start planning. Planning on what to write. I've decided to start using a thesaurus because then I can pick words that are more complex, for example, instead of putting perfect I can put unmarred. I just love the concept of using different words. Yeah, I know, I seem like a geek. Ohh well, I just love writing. Well, I've got to go.

My Heart is in My Head

2006-03-05T00:39:21Z

My heart is in my head. That's an utterly absurd saying, but it is actually true in some cases. Right now my heart is in my head. I think about love a lot but I won't actually let myself fall in love. So my head is my heart and my heart is my head. God, that's sounds so idiotic. I've got something else to add to my likes and dislikes; I hate pink but love green and blue. Also my favorite book is Twilight, by Stephenie Meyer. I really like Libba Bray's books to. I've already added more to my agenda, great!

I've started thinking lately about how much people can change in a short period of time. Recently I found two diarys, one was from when I was twelve and one was from when I was thirteen. So they were from a long time ago. I read them both and was shocked. My diary self (I guess I'll call it that) when I was thirteen was so much different from my diary self when I was twelve. I seemed so much more mature at age thirteen. I guess I finally got a reality check when I was thirteen and thank God that I did. I saw things totally different in less than one year. Now I'm starting to think that it's good to keep a diary yearly because then you can look back and see how much you've changed over the years. Sure, some diary entries you read now that you wrote long ago will be really embarrassing, but at least you can say "I'm so proud, I've changed so much. I'm no longer as air headed as I was then!" It would be really nice to know that when you were older and then you'll be more thankful for all the mistakes you made a while back because you'll know that they helped in your development. I'm officially done writing for today. As Porky used to say: That's all folks!

writing a new book

2006-02-23T02:23:48Z

I've finally decided to write a new book. The one I've been working on is becoming hard to write and I've found inspiration to write something else. I get tons of ideas but I never payed attention to them because I was already writing something. Writing can be really hard. Of course I'll go back to writing my old book, but for now I want to write something else. I really hope that it'll be good. Some of my ideas seem stupid to me but most ideas do seem stupid to the ones that have them. I'm never going to be able to write anything that is not about the paranormal, I'm too attached to ghosts and demons and other otherworldly beings. I'm not goth though, I don't ever wear black or paint my nails any shade of color that is below the range of red. I like to think a lot, not just about what I write, but everything else to. I'm typically a good person. I don't eat any kind of meat except for fish, I try to be helpful as much as I can, and I don't do things that seem stupid(most of the time I don't anyway). I want to be a writer and I love singing. I'm also not sure how I went from talking about a book to talking about myself. But I might as well continue. I like to listen to basically any type of music, though I don't really like rap that much. I don't think that it's right that people who are famous get payed more than school teachers, and I don't think it's right for people to drink entirely too much alcohol. I'd rather not wear tight tight clothes and Britney Spears doesn't really suit me. Well, I'm pretty much done. I'll think of more though.

Writing

2005-11-20T06:39:58Z

Hello. It's me again of course. Do you know what I just realized? I just realized that I am writing to no one in particular, I'm just waiting to be heard. One things that I want you to know is;
I looooooooooooooooooovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeee to write, you can tell how enthusiastic I am (or can you,hmmmmmmmmmmmm). And right now I am feeling really envious of publishing authors. I am trying to write a novel and let me say it is not easy. It's really hard to come up with situations that are,how do you say it,interesting. I mean the novel is pretty good,it just needs a little bit of work. Well gotta go,bye.

My views do matter

2005-10-10T04:17:24Z

Though writing can be difficult and way too stressing at times I find that it's a passion of mine. I may be young and who would ever think that something incredibly good would ever come out of me? No one (maybe) but one could also choose to try to listen to what younger people have to say. There are no doubt many good young writers in AMerica even those who are mere teens mere children. I have views and at least I can be proud of that. One always wants what they can't have, that's what some say. But if you want success sometimes you do get it so you really did want something you could have. I know what I want to be and at such a young age. I want to be an actress, a singer, an author. I want to be all of those things. And if I work hard I can accomplish the impossibe or accomplish something that none thought I could.
