So... I failed at the whole Christmas blog thing last year but I gave it a good go for someone who isn't used to documenting things. On the other hand I could have probably posting something about something or other in the past year... sorry bout ghosting.
I'm back though, and although this post will have nothing to do with christmas or music it does have to do with a story I've got on my mind. I have the bare bones of the story and four chapters done but it needs work and I need help. So, I'm gonna summarize what my idea is below and following it a list of things I need help with. If you are interested please, oh please put a comment or email me or contact me in some way, I am desperate.
Summary:
The story is told from a first person point of view of a seventeen year old albino female who has lived a pretty sheltered life until her father passes and her mom gets a new job in a small town. Unbeknownst to the narrator she is the subject of a prophecy and a werewolf (un-shifting). The prophecy tells how an albino of great power will come and destroy the cruelest evil before it has a chance to consume ultimate power and bring an end to were-life forever. Two weeks before winter formal she's kidnapped by a man with glowing amber eyes whose black swirling tattoos glow red when he is mad. She undergoes a week of his torture and cruelty but her stubbornness and sheer will soften him towards her and she begins to learn more about her dark capture and the secrets of his pack - with the help of his secret mate and beta.
What I Need Help With:
1. Editor
2. Prophecy writer
3. Help creating the character behaviours and mannerisms (including speech patterns) for the beta
4. I don't want this to be cheesy, but angsty, dark with a not jovial but still pleasant ending. In other words I want the evil and ultimate power to be the main character (the narrator's dark capture) but I don't know how to do that without making it super cheesy.
So if you think you can help me send me a line and hopefully we can work together. I do prefer to use Google Docs to do my writing (especially co-op stories). Hopefully when the story is done I will be posting it on Wattpad with credit of the story going to all who wrote and helped in the process. As for actual publishing - I wish but highly unlikely.
Thank You for your time. See you next time,
Miss Nobody

December 19th
Gah, I'm so sorry guys I've been a horrible daily blogger. It's been what 18 days? Maybe 19 lol. Well It's been a pretty busy few weeks, with finals, christmas to-do, I saw a movie, work and now I'm home for a week. I'm surprised I remembered my head in mist of it all. Still managed decent grades on my exams (well on most anyway) and just about half of all my holiday to-do list is completed. This will probably be a short one, after all there's not much to tell and I'm not totally sure where I last left you guys but I'll try my best to catch you up with least amount of repetition.
Guess I'll start with the movie, which I believe I mentioned in the previous entry as something I was looking forward to - incase I didn't mention it I went to see Dr. Strange which has the amazing Ben Cumberbatch. The movie was amazing!! I absolutely adored it, though there was some discrepancy from the cartoon movie version I watched - to be expected, and kinda makes me wish I could read comics so I could find out how it was originally planned (and which version was more accurate) but I can't stand reading comics so I'll just have to settle for the awesomeness of the movie as a stand-alone thing. If you haven't seen it then I highly recommend finding it and enjoying the superb-ness of this film.
Finals went decently as can expected when hyped up on stress and caffeine lol. I did really well on one exam, decent on the second, yet to be announced, and then a really surprising near fail (which was super confusing since I felt really confident - so I've been trying to contact my teacher, buuuuuuut it's the holidays so....). Don't know what else there is to tell there... ooooh, oooh, oh.... I got lost on my way to the weird almost failed exam (a contributing factor to the fail?). The normal testing center was full so they sent me to B560, but I thought they said W516 (which doesn't exist), when I found a teacher she had no idea what I was talking about and neither did anyone she called so she followed me up to the testing center and turns out a spot had opened on the original room and I was able to start my test.
On a more festive note I have four out of my eight christmas list people done and wrapped. I have all my bills paid, my ride to and from home figured out and all I have left is to iron out plans with friends on boxing day, or the day after for coffee and gift giving. So all in all I'm feeling pretty confident about being ready for the holidays.
Well I'm gonna go, my mom is finally back after not being able to see her for two months so I'm gonna spend the rest of my evening enjoying her company and catching up on her adventures.

Top of the Playlist
Alright there is actually a playlist I've been listening to for the last two days, it includes more than six songs though. I don't wanna break my trend of three songs a day but I also couldn't possibly choose only six so I'm just gonna go through the list and give you the top played ones, see how many that ends up being.
Most of the songs have been from Shrek 2 playlist, Brother Bear 2, Spirit, and songs by the Arrogant Worms. I'll list my favourites from each soundtrack, if you don't know it and I don't post it please check it out. I recommend all of them for your listening enjoyment.
1) From Shrek I've been loving; Hero by Frou Frou, Accidently in Love by Counting Crows, As Lovers Go by Dashboard Confidential and Ever Fallen in Love by Pete Yorn
2) From Brother Bear;Welcome to This Day and Feels like Home by Melissa Etheridge
3) From Spirit; You Can't Take Me, Get Off My Back and Here I Am by Bryan Adams
4) From Arrogant Worms; The Coffee Song and the Assumption Song

So in the end there is two from Shrek, and one for the other three for a grand total of five videos. I said it before and I'll say it again please check out and love all the songs I listed and not just the ones I posted. And if you truly adore the song buy it and help out the artist (which I didn't say before). Last thing before I leave you to your lives is please comment your favourite song for me, I'll check it out and who knows it might end up being a new favourite for me and possible end up in a future Top of the Playlist.

December 1st
24 days till Christmas ya'll *insert excited squeal* I hope you guys are excited as me. After all the ritualist sentiments that infect our society during this time of year is amazing. Even the bus is accepting bus fare in the form of food bank donations (at least until the sixth, but imagine how much money they lose with so little riders paying the three dollars to ride for seven days - it officially started yesterday). I'm hoping my work gives me the 24th and 26th off so I can go home for christmas; highly unlikely though. Still my hope is alive until the schedule comes out.
Now I realize I missed the entry for the 30th but since I don't yet have any readers I'm not gonna bother mentioning anything from that day (don't worry you aren't missing much). So moving straight onto today I had a bit of a shock at 1am when I realized it was december first which meant I had a final in my sociology class. Now normally a last minute test on three lectures wouldn't freak me out but this did because I skipped a lecture, didn't read the texts and... it was worth more than the previous exams. My panic attack chased away my half sleep-ness and I was up till 4am going over the first two chapters and lecture slides. I spent this afternoon trying to go over the last two chapters (I say trying because the appartment near mine was having its floors re-done and damn is that ever loud and distracting). In the end I think I did pretty well.
I'm forecasting a 23/33 on the MC and 12/17 on the Written (So 35/50 or 70%). Which overall isn't very good considering I got 80% on both other tests (which were each 20% of total grade) and a 0% on the paper (which was worth 30% of the grade). Which basically means I barely pass, bring down my GPA again.
My GPA will probably drop further next semester because I'm forced to take fine arts courses and all the easy/appealing classes were closed or I didn't meet the requirements. So I'm stuck in Latin (which I suck at language classes, I have not aptitude for language) and Philosophy of Law. I've got no classes on Thursdays but I've still asked to be unavailable in hopes of using it to study for those two classes and not fail them the way I seem to be doing with my sociology class.
Well I've expressed my stress over my current and future grade situation now I've gotta go and do two papers for my Psychology class that are due on December 7th. (Not that I know how to write either of them, gah I hate papers)

Top of the Playlist
I've been watching Sound of Music, and I love the soundtrack! So much so I know every word to every song. Possible most of the script to. Anyway the point I mean to make is that today's playlist will be a list of my top three favourite songs from the playlist (choosing just three will be hard but I will manage). The three I have chosen are as followed;
1) How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria
2) So Long Farewell
3) 16 Going On 17
If you don't know this film I suggest you clear 178 mins of your schedule and sit back and enjoy the best musical known to mankind. Take in every glorious musical number and each beautiful scene done by Julie Andrews. It may be from 1965 but it is still one of my most favorite movies.

November 26th: Day Eight
I'm gonna start this one with a confession. I lied to all of you last day. I said I was going to go out today and do some christmas shopping, among other thing but I didn't do any of it. Besides being a clutz and spilling every drink I've tried to enjoy today, and watching more than my fill of my movies I've spent the day writing.
I'm not the best writer, only my mother would tell you that and she's got way too much bias to be taken seriously (though she does always tell me I have no career in music, so I should refrain from quitting my day job - not that it makes me much money anyway). Though there is some fraction of joy I receive from writing out fantasies. My current story is about a girl, a prophecy, werewolves, and war. It's rather exciting in my head, I wish I could convey the scenes in my head into words for others to view the same picture better. It's got lots of action and I'm finding it hard to connect them without using the same sentence starter over and over again, not to mention how choppy it sound when I read over it. Still it provides me with a way to escape into another world, a world I create, one better than the one I'm forced to deal with in the real world.
That might explain why I like books and movies so much as well. Any escape I can find I take. Every alternate reality created in fiction I would take over my current one. Even if I was one of those New Yorkers who gets crushed by a building, or that friend in the Asylum that doesn't make it out. Admittedly I would prefer to be the sidekick like Bartok or Morph, but either way I would give anything to be a character in a fiction story than a real person. Though I'm sure there's a word to describe such desires, after all there's bound to be a whole slew of people out there who feel the same way, right? Maybe a few of you reading now feel that way.
Moving on from my daydreaming I don't know what else to report and that makes me feel like a horrible blogger, I've barely made it to having a gray bar, and it didn't even have a warning that it would be a short blog like last time (and last time didn't even end up short). I guess I'll leave with my apology on this short and depressing blog, I'll attempt to make tomorrows more interesting for you; maybe I'll try grocery shopping.
