I'm switching over to deviantArt. Nothing against Xanga, dA is just a better home for Hana. I'm not deleting this account; I'm just not going to update. Here's my the link (nothing new has been posted): http://li-flower.deviantart.com/

I'm taking a break from fanfiction to present the work of the camera ninja: Project 366 - http://flickr.com/photos/jen9264/sets/72157603607781879/
This is the result of taking a photograph each day for an entire year. I managed to capture some really cool pictures, some awful ones, and some ones that made me wonder what the hell I was thinking when I decided that would be my picture of the day.
I'm not going to do Project 365 for 2009 because I need to concentrate on my writing. However, I've got some fun photography projects up my sleeve. They'll take a bit of planning, but I can't wait. In the meantime, it's back to writing my play (and Katekyo Hitman Reborn!).

In the final hour of 2008, I accomplished my goal. Oh my procrastination skills! I've already said a lot in my author notes so here are they are: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4734807/4/1250_Foot_Fall (This is the link to Chapter 4. I just got done with Chapter 5.)
Even though I'm finished with the "Fall" series, I've decided that I'm not done with my Dark Knight vignettes. Alfred and Lucius are too cool to not have anything on them, but the title is too cool to change so I'm going to include them as bonus chapters that expressing the opposite of falling: standing. I'll be taking a break before I write them since I've got other stuff to finish.

This is the last of the vignettes that I wrote a few months ago. I better put my brain and fingers to use these next few days (though to be fair, I have been editing this particular one). I've also been trying to catch up on my Project365, but there's a picture upload limit on the Flickr group. Luckily the limit is rolling so I hope I can get everything in before the deadline. Not much else to say besides, here's Dark Knight vignette #3, featuring Rachel Dawes: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4734807/3/
Quote of the Day:
"Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love." - Neil Gaiman

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas. The end of 2008 is rapidly approaching, and I'm making a last minute resolution to finish my Dark Knight collection of vignettes (that was the term I was looking for last time).
I've updated it with a new chapter and a title change. The original title, Fall, was too boring. I explain how I came up with 1250 Foot Fall and the nice coincidence that resulted from the particular number so read Ch. 1 again: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4734807/2/
Okay, completely switching gears now, I just want to be a whiny adolescent again.  My parents don't get me. I overheard my mother telling her friend on how I'm stubborn and don't want to be a mature woman, which apparently entails wearing make-up and ditching my love of all things goth and punk. She hates it when I shop at Hot Topic (which is dilute compared to the stores in Harajuku and Taiwan that I've been to), and her friend's son, who's my age, happened to agree that it's full of weirdos. So much for support from my peers.  I keep reminding myself that if I have children, I'll let them be their own person, but you know what? I'm scared of the fact that they're going to be 100% normal and preppy and totally not interested in the arts or anything weird or geeky.
