Aw man, tired.

Tired. Tired. Tired.

I just managed to chiong finish the jap compo which was...about learning jap, ironically, that I don't really have much to write about. Things get tougher in sec 2. Harder grammar and sentence structures (and kanji), u see.

Oh and we got our Chem PT today. 2 weeks to complete it. Ain't that great?

Well, I'm feeling a little emo. Ok more of tired, I guess. Actually it's because I was talking with Dragon and it was gonna be Valentine's day soon so we talked about some stuff in school, and other things. Seems like we're both stuck in similar situations. Can't blame him for what he found himself in anyway.

Just like I can't wholly blame myself.

Hmm so yup...wrote this long long review for a very poorly-written parody in the DC fandom yesterday, whereby the spelling and grammar was sorta seriously off-track. And the author replied me today that "parody was supposed to be satire" and it was a "crude imitation of a serious piece of literary work" - a touch of sarcasm in her voice, could sense it.

Fine.

If that's the case then she (actually it was 'they') did a very bad job on it. Parody, however "crude" the imitation can get, may not necessarily mean making a mess out of the bunch of language u had available at hand. Parody doesn't mean sticking pins into ur readers' eyes. Parody doesn't mean stagnant "humor" that doesn't even wrench a single laugh out of our guts.

Writing parody doesn't mean u can make a mess out of language.

There are certain rules u need to follow, u know. And respect for readers; if u ever want good response, as u said "200 reviews before the next chapter", I suggest u take up that basic bit of responsibility for providing ur readers the best u can do.

I'm not denying your ability to write. U did well for BOTH ur profile pages, u know. Just that perhaps it'll be better if u can stop using internet chatlog in ur stories. And MIND YOUR SPELLING.

Lol I realized I began talking to her instead of u guys. Well, back to the topic.

Haiz. I'm finding it hard to get chem PT out of my head.

So...I'm gonna look at some Jap. I'm not gonna post my compo here tho, later some stupid problems like plagarism and I have to explain myself out of a whole bunch of terrible things...

Eewk.

Oh Jolyn gave us all lollipops for friendship week and Val day, ate them during lit lesson. (Getting hasty, mom nagging). Um yea and...uh...did sonnets for lit too. Sonnets - octaves, sestets (spelt this way?) OH WHO CARES...

Headache.

Ugh so yea. I guess it's getting a little darker in the night and I should be getting off. Will tell u guys the dreams - don't trust me that much tho - sometime o'er the next few days. Well yup.

I'm missing my fanfic-writing days...

And I'm changing the footnote again. For utter randomness and a sudden, irrational, unexplainable thirst for some change here. Things do need to be livelier at times.
