Well, the days of summer loom jubilantly upon California, and the days of Summer Break begin. This means fun in the sun, going on trips, hanging out with friends, and good old goofing off.

I have to work, on the other hand.

It wouldn't be summer without some work to make the break all the more worth it. During the summer, I have several academic tasks for the 4 AP classes I intend to take during the summer.

I intend to complete all four assignments before...

This month will tear my insides out, wear them like a funny hat and cackle insanely while I slowly bleed to death. May is the month born from the depths of the Inferno ready to swallow up those who are not ready, or not worthy for paradise.

Some of you know that I write reviews for /ggFTW. Some of you know that I wrote reviews before the game card center came around.

Granted, the overlord from beyond the stars gave us extremely good perks prior to the game card center (user bars - and a very nice reward at the end). However, despite the user...

Some people know that I am in the process of writing a story, of which I post in /ggFTW forums. Aside from this, I am working on writing my own project, focusing on the main character of the aforementioned writing project. '

The only problem is that he's a "Mary Sue" in the writing world. A "Mary Sue" is someone who can do virtually anything. Most "Mary Sues" are frowned upon, because they're too overpowered when compared to other characters in a story....
