Qzie's Disturbingly Creative Mind

I've been thinking about Keiran and Caomhe lately- editing their story does that. But tonight I got started thinking about the end. What if Keiran never left? Would he have forgiven Caomhe sooner? Would they have gotten married and all that? To be honest, I don't think they would have, and Fine Line would be a tragedy of sorts. I think they would have switched roles- Caomhe asking for Keiran's forgiveness and Keiran being a total jerk to her even though he still liked her- and then Caomhe would've been like, "Fine. Whatever." after a little while and been just as cruel to him.

What would have been?

Caomhe would probably have gotten together with Matthias. He was going to be her rebound in Duct Tape, but that story didn't exactly work out, did it? :/ I think Caomhe and Matthias would have been a great match.

Keiran would have spent more of his life as a bachelor. I can't see him with anyone but Caomhe. Definitely not Skye- she and Max reconnected later in life as "more than friends"- but he probably would have found a girl who was a lot like Caomhe without the commitment issues.

(Honestly... Keiran wasn't going to have any real "relationship" in Duct Tape. It was going to be a demonstration of how much he needed Caomhe.)

But ultimately, Caomhe and Keiran were made for each other.

Oh! You can read my NaNoWriMo/Event Horizon blog at qzie.wordpress.com.

Chat later. ^^

-Qzie, who has an interview in nine hours. *Nervous*

For class, we have to write a blog. Yeah, seriously. Sooo that's coming up pretty soon. I'll let you know more once I know what I'm blogging about.

Meanwhile, the NaNoWriMo site has relaunched! BE EXCITED! And I kinda imploded a little. ^^'' Just a little.

Updates later, have to go.

...Dramatics aside.

I'm putting together a playlist and hellogoodbye (you can thank them for being my romantic inspiration) released a free mini-EP. But for some reason, it WON'T WORRRRK. And hellogoodbye's awesome.

Oh well. Here's my Event Horizon playlist as of now (I think you'll be surprised to find out that there are only three Relient K songs. I got a lot of use from Owl City, though):

There Was No Thief ~ Relient K

Summer ~ Your Heart

Livin' On A Prayer ~ cover by Stellar Kart

caramelldansen ~ ...for reals.

What About Jazz ~ Songs To Wear Pants To

Ode to Crayola ~ Lemon Demon

Word Disassociation ~ Lemon Demon

Galaxies Collide ~ Eleventyseven

Fireflies ~ Owl City

Under Stars ~ Tom Felton (again: for reals.)

If My Heart Was A House ~ Owl City

How to Save a Life ~ The Fray

Curl Up and Die ~ Relient K

Vanilla Twillight ~ Owl City

Stand in the Rain ~ Superchick

When I Go Down ~ Relient K

Davy Jones ~ PotC: Dead Man's Chest

I'm not sure what to use for the title font. I found some really cool ones on highfonts.com, namely Acadian, Aleia, Caliph, and Ohio Script. Almost lost Tall Paul- my default font for Fine Line- but I found it again. ^_^

Not too much to say. Tomorrow is Laura's 19th birthday (geez), so it's a day of cake and ice cream.

Chat later. ^^

Lessee... last blog update was August 21. ^^''''''' Not much has happened since then, other than me discovering a dynamite (and very simple) recipe for butterbeer: cream soda + a couple teaspoons of butterscotch syrup, then microwaved for about 35 to 45 seconds.

ANYWAYS.

First day at Western was fine. Driving there was a pain and I ended up parking somewhere fifteen minutes away from where I needed to be. x_x But now I know where the turns are, so everything should be A-OK tomorrow. ^_^ First class was Shakespeare, and we are starting off by reading Richard III. Have to get that tomorrow. Maybe I can check it out from the library... I mean, we're only reading it for a few class sessions, and the library gives you about a month with each book. I think that would be an excellent route. Cheap? Yes. Oh goodness yes.

As for Child Psychology... too early to tell, but Kirstin's taking the class with me. We have our first quiz on Thursday. Ain't that nice?

Tomorrow is Advanced Writing and Playwriting, and I'm really excited. In Advanced Writing, we'll be making a website and a blog (yes, feel free to laugh), but it's going to be stylin'. I'm not sure what to blog about yet, but I think I'm gonna make a writing resource website. Not sure what to call it yet, but I have time.

So about the stories.

Nosco-a-Dei is still being outlined, particularly the middle. It's tricky and has the potential to be political, but I know a lot of people get annoyed with political stories. And it isn't even about politics- it's about light. No, really, it is.

As for WWID, I think it'd be awesome if I got it out November 1. What do you think about that date?

And lastly, Event Horizon. A trailer is in the works using this song:

(Oh the Marauders.)

I think that's it for now...

So I was reading this essay by George Eliot (who was actually a woman) called Silly Novels by Lady Novelists, or at least the portion included in the Norton anthology I kept. ;D Eliot was describing the heroine of these "silly novels":

--

....The heroine is usually an heiress, probably a peeress in her own right, with perhaps a vicious baronet, an amiable duke, and an irresistable younger son of a marquis as lovers in the foreground, a clergyman and a poet sighing for her in the middle distance, and a crowd of undefined adorers dimly indicated beyond. Her eyes and her wit are both dazzling; her nose and her morals are alike free from any tendency to irregularity; she has a superb contralto and a superb intellect; she is perfectly well-dressed and perfectly religious; she dances like a sylph, and reads the Bible in the original tongues.

--

LAUGH. OUT. LOUD. Mary Sue. But continuing.

--

Or it may be that the heroine is not an heiress- that rank and wealth are the only things in which she is deficient; but she infallibly gets into high society, she has the triumph of refusing many matches and securing the best, and she wears family jewels or other as a sort of crown of righteousness at the end. Rakish men either bite their lips in impotent confusion at her repartees, or are touched to penitence by her reproofs, which, on appropriate occasions, rise to a lofty strain of rhetoric; indeed, there is a general propensity in her to make speeches, and to rhapsodize at some length when she retires to her bedroom. In her recorded conversations she is amazingly elegant, and in her unrecorded conversations, amazingly witty. She is understood to have a depth of insight that looks through and through the shallow theories of philosophers, and her superior instincts are a sort of dial by which men have only to set their clocks and watches, and all will go well.

--

And what about the gentlemen? Well, I'm glad you asked. It was a particularly long paragraph, so I broke it down.

--

The men play a very subordinate part by her side. You are consoled now and then by a hint that they have affairs, which he keeps you mind that the working-day business of the world is somehow being carried on, by ostensibly the final cause of their existence is that they may accompany the heroine on her "starring" expedition through life. They see her at a ball, and are dazzled; at a flower-show, and they are fascinated; on a riding excursion, and they are witched by her noble horsemanship; at church, and they are awed by the sweet solemnity of her demeanour.

She is the ideal woman in feelings, faculties, and flounces. For all this, she as often as not marries the wrong person to begin with, and she suffers terribly from the plots and intrigues of the vicious baronet; but even death has a soft place in his heart for such a paragon, and remedies all mistakes for her just at the right moment. The vicious baronet is sure to be killed in a duel, and the tedious husband dies in his bed requesting his wife, as a particular favour to him, to marry the man she loves best, and having already dispatched a note to the lover informing him of the comfortable arrangement.

Before matters arrive at this desirable issue our feelings are tried by seeing the noble, lovely, and gifted heroine pass through many mauvais moments, but we have the satisfaction of knowing that her sorrows are wept into embroidered pocket-handkerchiefs, that her fainting form reclines on the very best upholstery, and that whatever vicissitudes she may undergo, from being dashed out of her carriage to having her head shaved in a fever, she comes out of them all with a complexion more blooming and locks more redundant than ever.

Don't you just love it?

So I've been editing WWID while I can- been busy with other stuff- and thinking to myself, Wow, there are so many earth-based references in this, I had better come up with some good excuses wonder why that is.

*Cough*

But seriously. Even though WWID takes place in a completely different galaxy over 2500 years in the future (supposedly- fixing some kinks), we still have Earth food and animals and colloquialisms and even Tig's reference to Jesus. You could just excuse this as a writer who isn't creative enough to come up with her own food and animals, but I say NO! And yes. But mostly NO!

Then I get this new idea that I think is totally disconnected. Pht, not when I've spent the better part of a year pouring my soul into a fictional galaxy. And you can probably guess that that idea was Event Horizon. If the Tsu-Min Galaxy was created as a result of the events of that story, then everything would make sense. It would explain why they all seem to be operating on the same calendar, why there isn't a sun- or so it seems, why there are humans so far away from Earth, it'd explain why the galaxy is so distinctly human.

And that's because it was CREATED BY HUMANS. And a girl who looks human, but is actually a beam of pure light. Explain later- Event Horizon is a screwy, confusing story to summarize.

Chat later. ^^

TH: No. Sorry to disappoint you... but no.

121) Has someone ever made you a promise & broken it?

I read this a really long time ago, but forgot where it was. Then I found it again! It's HILARIOUS, true or not.

--

FBI agents conducted a raid of a psychiatric hospital in San Diego that was under investigation for medical insurance fraud. After hours of reviewing thousands of medical records, the dozens of agents had worked up quite an appetite.
The agent in charge of the investigation called a nearby pizza parlor with delivery service to order a quick dinner for his colleagues. The following telephone conversation took place and was recorded by the FBI because they were taping all conversations at the hospital.

Agent: Hello. I'd like to order 19 large pizzas and 67 cans of soda.

Pizza Man: And where would you like them delivered?

Agent: We're over at the psychiatric hospital.

Pizza Man: The psychiatric hospital?

Agent: That's right. I'm an FBI agent.

Pizza Man: You're an FBI agent?

Agent: That's correct. Just about everybody here is.

Pizza Man: And you're at the psychiatric hospital?

Agent: That's correct. And make sure you don't go through the front doors. We have them locked. You'll have to go around to the back service entrance to deliver the pizzas.

Pizza Man: And you say you're all FBI agents?

Agent: That's right. How soon can you have them here?

Pizza Man: Everyone at the psychiatric hospital is an FBI agent?

Agent: That's right. We've been here all day and we're starving.

Pizza Man: How are you going to pay for all of this?

Agent: I have my checkbook right here.

Pizza Man: And you're all FBI agents?

Agent: That's right. Everyone here is an FBI agent. Can you remember to bring the pizzas and sodas to the service entrance in the rear? We have the front doors locked.

Pizza Man: I don't think so. (Click)

Here's the new list:

1) Reading Arc of Justice for history class and writing an essay on it.

2) Finishing Seven Days.

3) Hundred.

4) Edits on Fine Line.

Then when all that is done, the new list will be:

1) A series of humorous essays about the mechanics of the female mind.

2) WATCH.

3) Fix It! (I figure it'll be November by then)

So where have I been? Dead. Last week was Vacation Bible School, so I got to help out with that. Also, I had to get everything sorted out for my history class, which is going well. Then I'm editing WWID because the second proof copy came back, and it was still a mess. So I ran through it again. x_x But I managed to cut down the cost for ya! ^_^

Oh... Kirstin and I got Half-Blood Prince tickets for the first show! Woot. We're very excited, and especially because it's at a downtown theater we haven't really gotten the chance to see. Ever. And tickets were only $5 each! ^-^

Speaking of movies, CD 1.0, your line about spam has been used. ~_^

I got really excited about Fix It! today because a character has made an appearance in the shape of a Holly. You don't know about my Holly trend, though. You see, every Holly I have ever written has turned out to be evil. I wrote a six-year-old Italian!Holly (Holly Acciai) for NaNo '06 and she could have very well been in the mob. Or bipolar. The kid was screwed up.

But this Holly is going to be friends with my FMC, Rose, the ultimate good girl. It should be interesting.

Yeah, just made that. ^^

First let's cover the new projects.

1) Hundred. This is going to be my hundredth story and I'm doing the hundred theme challenge for it. Thought it was appropriate.  It's a story about this absolutely horrible person (nobody's stepped up to the plate yet) that I aim to make everybody despise- can we say moral event horizon? It's a story about second chances.

2) WATCH. People are going to get mad at me for this one, I think. It's based on all this horrible stuff I'm finding. I put up a little "teaser" for it in the form of a poem/riddle.

3) Fix It! My return to romance and NaNoWriMo 2009 project! It's about a girl named Rose who falls for this complete jerk, Justin, and she wants to "fix" him. Meanwhile, she's failing math so she has to get a tutor, and his name is Isaac. Kinda obvious where I'm going with this, isn't it?

OK, The Wonderful World of Imminent Doom. I think it should be ready to sell by the end of the month. I ordered my free proof copy, which will hopefully arrive tomorrow, but I made changes to the manuscript... heh... ^^''''' In my defense, they were technical changes in attempts to save pages and ink, and thus make the book cost less. So I'll have to order ANOTHER proof before I can say I'm happy with it and yadda yadda yadda.

Here's the question: Does anyone watch Hulu?

And now, Hope for Every Fallen Man lyrics.

As you push it up through the soil

I will shake your filthy hand

You may be dead to me

But that don't mean we can't be friends

Now it's time to get over this

As long as it's clear, you understand

That I will never trust a single thing you say again

Because a judge of you is someone I could never be

It's why you should thank the Lord that it is Him and it's not me

But don't give up, it's not the end

There's hope for every fallen man

To pick themselves up when they think they can't

Because with every passing second comes a second chance

You stole so much from me

And there is nothing left to take

Save a hard-learned lesson

On how not to make the same mistake

And you may be delirious

But that is something that we'll fake

After you confess that this mess

Is all something that you made

Because a judge of you is someone I could never be

It's why you should thank the Lord that it is Him and it's not me

But don't give up, it's not the end

There's hope for every fallen man

To pick themselves up when they think they can't

Because with every passing second comes a second chance

Don't give up, it's not the end

Get back on your feet again

Forgiveness can be given when you think it can't

Because with every passing second comes a second chance

Take a good look at yourself and know

You've got yourself a ways to go

But difficult is not impossible

You can take back all the lost control

Take a good look at yourself and see

That you'll emerge eventually

As long as your heart's not too far gone

From the only thing that can save you from yourself

Forgiveness can be given when you think it can't

Because with every passing second comes a second chance
