Wheeee! I just went to an 'Elvish Name Generator' and it turns out my name is Lúthien Carnesîr! What are the chances of having a name like Lúthien? I'm not doomed to fall in love with a man to whom I give my life for, am I? O_o HOLY! If I put my name in the guy's side, my name turns into Fëanor?! What are the chances of THAT?
Oh yeah, and I also got a hobbit name, too! Its...Rosie-Posie Loamsdown of Deephallow. -_-;;; Not quite so enlightening. Here is a link to the Elven name generator and here's one for the Hobbits, too. Very neat site with a very nice layout. God, I need Photoshop. ;_;

Dammit, Orlando, why do you have to be so undeniably hot? ;_;
Hmm, today I was talking to Nat (at whom I'm a bit miffed) about Orlando's erm, charm. I showed her some fanarts (which were REALLY nice) and you know what she said to me? "You know, in comparison to that, you can't draw!"
WHO THE [censored] DOES SHE THINK SHE IS?! Okay, maybe I *do* know that it's a really nice picture. In fact, I'm envious beyond belief of whoever drew it, since I can't draw real life for beans. But does that *suddenly* give her the right to flat out INSULT ME? I was NEVER the one to claim that *I* was an "artist" or that I could "draw really well". SHE said that. She bugged me to no end for drawing after drawing, and to tell the truth, I've hardly finished them! And personally, I don't give a damn! You want a picture? Draw it yourself! Then she goes prancing around saying, "YOU CAN'T DRAW SHIT!" because suddenly, she expected me to be, oh, I don't know, DRAWING AT A PROFESSIONAL LEVEL?! I've never even taken any courses, what the hell is her problem?! She's not a very good drawer either, cause if she was she wouldn't have asked me to draw a picture for her!
TF: Then...why'd you, err, I agree to draw them in the first place?
Because I didn't want to be rude and say "NO!!! GO DRAW YOUR OWN [censored] PICTURE!!". Seriously, what the hell is her problem?! @!#@!$(&*%#^(#@$)*%#@(&$%!!!!!!!!!!
Tf: Hmm, while Slef goes on a rampage, I'm going to continue the blog. Hopefully her Cid impersonation will end soon. ^_^;;; Anyway, Slef here decided it was high time to show up and be mad, so she started to draw a picture of Orlando to prove her worthyness (I thought she said she wasn't an artist?). Orlando is just so undeniably cute that we were scared to draw him ugly. So now we've stopped drawing. Yup. We'll do it tomorrow. Heey, I've got some good news for you guys.
I finished the third chapter of LaR! Yaaaaay! ^_^
I sent it to Ari to get beta-ed, but that was two days ago, and I still haven't got a reply yet. I might just ask someone else to beta this chapter in the meantime, because I want to get it up as soon as possible. Oh yeah, here's another piece of good news for you:
I started the second chapter of Building a Mystery, AND I got two reviews for the first chappie! ^__^ The first was from Phoenic/Nanaka/Wizardmajic or, err, what ever other pen-name she has, and the second was from someone called Lara. O_o Oh well, they were both good reviews! Yay! ^_^ Hopefully I'll be able to post the second chapter soon. Hmmm, I took a poll to see which movies I should be using for LaR, and here are the results!
1st: Finding Nemo (8 votes)
2nd: Spirited Away (7 votes)
3rd: Mulan (6 votes)
4th: Lilo and Stitch (4 votes)
5th: Monsters Inc. (3 votes)
6th: Toy Story (2 votes)
7th: Rescuers Down Under (1)
8th: The Emperor's New Groove & A Bug's Life
Personally, I didn't really want Rescuers Down Under to get any votes (why I put it on the list, I have no idea). But then again, the only one who voted for that was Michael, and he's a stupid lil bugger, so his vote doesn't count. I wanted to use Finding Nemo and Spirited Away, but I'm having problems thinking of a story for those two. Actually, I've been seeing a lot of 'Stitch the Movie' commercials, so now I sort of have an idea for Lilo and Stitch. Chances are I'm going to use it even though it came in fourth.
Slef: So what good did the [censored] poll do?!
For fun! ^_^ I also want to use Mulan (gotta love that movie!) and Toy Story (gotta love Rex!).
Slef:Meh. We'll cross the bridge when we get there.
TF (and Slef)

Did I finish it?
...No.
Did I even start the second chapter to BaM?
...No. u.u Darn blogs and the internet. They're so distracting! Remind never to push myself too far and stay up too late. I couldn't sleep again and now my head feels stuffy. But, during my unsleep I changed a bit of LaR (just the third chapter) so that I won't have so many problems writing it. AND, I found out what the problem was...I hadn't thought up a thorough ending for that chapter yet! ^_^;;;
And last night, I decided that I'm going to write a 'Guide to Writing Well' either on my blog or on ff.net, because there are just too many damned people who can't write for the life of them. You have absolutely no idea how many fanfics I've read that don't make sense because everything is put into ONE, GIANT PARAGRAPH!
"Oh waht re u doin Yuffei," asked Tifs oh Im doin nuthinn. said Yuffei".
AHHHH! I can't stand it anymore! Don't they teach you English in school?! And for god's sake, get a damned spellcheck program or something! Yeesh. WENT IS NOT 'WHEN' WITH A 'T' AT THE END!!!!! Stupid people.

Hello.
I haven't posted anything "meaty" recently (LaR is starting to get like that too, sadly..), but today, that's all going to change. I'm going to make a difference. I'm going to do something that would make my friends and family proud. I'm going to stand up to the world and say, "I'm going to shut up now because I, am getting out of hand. My name is PipHobbit, and I AM CANADIAN!".
No, really.
Actually, I'm going to FINISH (and I mean finish with a capital everything) the third chapter to Loss and Redemption, so I can finally work on the fourth one and spend another month and a half posting it. Not only do I...
Oh great, I've lost my train of thought.
Hmmm... right, as I was saying... Not only do I write cliffhangers on every chapter (so far), I also fail to update within a week. I should probably set up an agenda like Ari, and update every Saturday, etc. (Actually, I tried that but it didn't really work. Pity.) To pass the time (it was written during a Writer's Block), I posted a songfic to the song, "Building a Mystery" by Sarah Mclachlan (and I also make references to the I am Canadian commercial there, too. Weird.). Unfortunately, I had to break it in half and write TWO chapters instead, and the second one probably isn't going to be posted soon, so...
If I'm really going to finish it, I should probably stop writing in my blog (and MSN messenger windows) and starting writing in my word document. Right. I'm going to do that now, I swear! (starts surfing the web and playing 'College Cheese' with Cat). Oh darn, I got distracted again. Is it just me, or do I try to distract myself when I know I have to do something I don't want to?

WAIIII!!!!!!!!!!!
This is soo great! I've spend the last two days trying to change my blog template...I got rid of that stupid, annoying gradient bar (deleted the javascript code...Tcheh, who needs java?) and I put in a Sora background I found off the net. I changed the colours of everything, practically, to get it to match. Then I made an I-Frame for my posts and VOILA! Instant new template. Took a helluva lot of HTML though, and it turns out that I was copying the wrong code for the past few days. No wonder it didn't work at first. >.< I also changed the scroll bar color...cool, ne!
