Okay, I’m done. Bye, guys.
And don’t worry, Rochellaine, WE SHALL MEET ONE DAY. I’m sure of it.

It was better than Liliom, definitely. I’m not sure I could say that I liked it though. The more of these old musicals I watch the more I’m sure I’ll never find one that I love 🙂
I think though, my main problem was that the ending made me really uncomfortable, especially the part where Louise and Julie talk about being hit and never feeling a…[Read more]

@catwing We’ll see you when you get back!
@rochellaine I watched Carousel tonight.

True. I’ve been learning imperial measurement in math lately and it drives me crazy.
Ah, I see. Usually, we’d say “so and so is five foot nine,” we usually leave off the inches, but still say the feet.

Numbers are the bane of my life.
You don’t appreciate ten because all your measurements are so random and weird and all over the place. In metric measures, everything is in ten–10 millimetres in a centimetre, 100 centimetres in a metre, 1000 metres in a kilometre. Its very easy to remember 😀
Five foot fourteen 😛

This is where the problem is, my friend. We use imperial measurements for heights because its sounds cooler to say “I’m 5ft 5in”, rather than “I’m 170cm tall”. However, I forgot that a foot is twelve inches, not ten. So while Justice is 5’9”, and Zac is 6’1″ that’s actually a difference much larger than two. 😛
But its not my fault…[Read more]

Yeah, sorry. I’d come if I could, truly 😛

Oh yes, I use okeydokey a lot. In fact, I thought it must have been an Australian thing. Seems not. 😀
Okaydokey, that’s fine 😀 I’m happy either way. You can read it even if you don’t want to beta read.

In most of the pictures I saw on pinterest he was much older than that one that I posted.
Well, I wouldn’t have pictured Clint Eastwood as looking like Justice, but there we go 😛
I don’t really know what I imagine him looking like. He’s appearance has never concreted itself in my mind. 😀 The woes of being a writer, when you…[Read more]

Just curious, did you mean to say “Okaydonkey”? Is that something you say often? It’s a curious expression 😀

Actually, I found this picture of Frankie Avalon on Pinterest, and minus the hair, which is too short and not curly enough, he probably looks quite similar.

And yeah, I’ve never imagined Quillon being particularly athletic or muscular. And yeah, Jonas is probably abnormally tall and good looking 😀 Kendall, not so much I don’t…[Read more]

Hmm, interesting. I guess if I used to Frankie Avalon I might imagine him that way. This is the picture I’ve always had of him though:

Hmm, okay. I’ll think about that and try to think something up. 😀
Speaking of Justice and Jonas, I wrote a short story about them the other day 🙂

SeekJustice replied to the topic Stars Fill Infinity in the forum Novel Critique Requests 8 years, 2 months ago
Okay, that makes sense. So I just looked at the outline I wrote last year before I started the novel and I noticed that things go in this order:
Justice and Chessy go out to the trenches with some other people who aren’t named. Chessy kisses Justice and he gets angry and she runs away. Then Sapphire and Jonas turn up and he tells…[Read more]
