[size=1]I saw it this afternoon. I loved it, heh. ^_^ Wow. *grins*[/size]

[size=1]Yay, more anime_gurl stuff. ^_^ Very cool, as per always. I'd like to see something you've spent more time on, too. Shaded and stuff; lots of those would look fantastic as finished works.[/size]

[size=1][b]Mitch:[/b] That one was Emily Dickenson. ^_~ old songs last the longest and promises ring true-- a lifetime's fears are laid to rest by faded yellow silk[/size]

[size=1]*fwapps Cloud-Tasis-Person* Shy said she looked like a rabbit, because the colors reminded him of Easter. Heh. I did the face last, and by that time it was close to midnight, heh... *winces* Not as great as it coulda been, but I like it. It was in 'dobe photoshop elements... Some version of photoshop, heh. Not the greatest, but I'm fond of it, and [i]still[/i] learning how to do new things...All is well. ^_^ I'm glad you like it, heh.[/size]

[size=1]Eee! *hugs Tori* ...I'd save it, but I'm at my friend's house right now, heh..[/size]

[size=1]I've never actually heard it called "snitching." It's always just been "telling." "Oooooh! I'm telllllling!!!!!" or "He told on me!" You see? Pffeff. [/size]

[size=1]Return the kindness, mm?[/size]

[size=1]Come to terms with it. Sorry, but that's all ya can do. Relationships are like that. Listen if he feels like talking, although I doubt he will. Keep him from blowing up her house or anything...those type of things tend to be frowned upon...[/size]

[size=1]Heh, you have a blinkie tag...I haven't seen one of those for a long time... *ponders making one* I like it. The coloring is very good...niice.[/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Queen Asuka [/i] [B][color=hotpink][size=1]SO, is it autobiographical? Is there a story behind this...er, story? ;)[/color][/size] [/B][/QUOTE] [SIZE=1]Just maybe. ^_~ I don't know it I'm sure, myself.[/SIZE]

[size=1][b]249[/b] Wild Nights--Wild Nights! Were I with thee Wild Nights should be Our luxury! Futile--the Winds-- To a Heart in port-- Done with the Compass-- Done with the Chart! Rowing in Eden Ah, the Sea! Might I but moor--Tonight-- In Thee![/size]

[size=1]Contrived? How so? I like it, Lady A. Again, freaky.... *laughs* I'm suppose I'll have to read the book now, heh... The "Tiny, pink, pig.." Bit bugged me a little bit... Too many commas, augh. ^_~ What was the weather like? [/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Heaven's Cloud [/i] [B][color=indigo]My odd sense of humor. Though no one else may find me funny, I think I'm hilarious...[/color] [/b][/QUOTE] :p [size=1] Mm... I'm actually very pretty, when I'm in a good mood, heh... My hair is long and brown/copper/[i]dark[/i] brown [weather and lighting vary...], and sort of wavy...I'm too impatient to do anything with it, but I'm sure the potential is there, heh. I like my eyes, sometimes. Change with the weather, and right now they're a muddy brown...but sometimes they're amber. The iris is a sort of little starburst of darker color around the pupil, surrounded by a ring of lighter color...if I'm wearing some outfits, they are green and orange. [i]Very[/i] cool. I love my sense of humor. And my current writing style, heh. Very spiffy, that.[/size]

[Size=1]Never told on my siblings...just beat 'em up. ^_~ Heh, well.. It really depends on the severity of the situation. [/size]

[size=1]Aww! So pretty, both of you. ^_^[/size]

[size=1]Cats and Alcohol: The tragic untold story.[/size]

[size=1]I love van Gogh's work. Not necessarily all of his pieces, but his style and use of color are just fantastic. I've got more than just a passing interest in Dali... Some of his stuff is just messed up, though.[/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Thing296 [/i] [B][color=black][size=1][font=rockwell]and it is points,not no. of posts to be used.[/color][/size][/font] [/B][/QUOTE] [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Mitch [/i] [B][color=black][size=1][font=rockwell] It would cause an influxed increase in spam, and people just constantly posting for just a competitive reason.[/color][/size][/font] [/B][/QUOTE]

[size=1]It's better lately than it was a few months ago.[/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Mitch [/i] [B][color=black][size=1][font=rockwell]readers may view it...the willful breaking of convention[/color][/size][/font] [/B][/QUOTE] [SIZE=1]And what's wrong with that?[/SIZE]

[size=1]Shall not pass...heheh. Tis very funny.[/size]

[size=1]Mitch, I disagree. Newspaper articles [i]are[/i] facts. They present facts. That's what they are for. Saying that it has too many facts is like saying water is too wet, or something. You also have to write to the lowest common denominator. Assume people don't have a clue as to what you're talking about. Whether or not [i]you[/i] were familiar with the facts of depression or not is not an issue. [i]And mainly, also, you aren't exactly really telling the story of this person's depression.[/i] Exactly. It's an informative article that happens to use direct quotes to reinforce what it is presenting. [b]And, Shy--[/b] You know the drill, right? Experiencing a few of these symptoms for a short time does not necessarily mean that a person is depressed, but they [strike]are often good indicators that [/strike] [color=red]May indicate that/ are often good indicators as to whether[/color]there is a problem. These warning signs [strike]are[/strike] [color=red]include[/color]: sudden change in weight and sleeping patterns. Depression is extremely common among teenagers, [strike]since[/strike] [color=red]perhaps because[/color] the stress and pressures of high school [strike]can be[/strike] [color=red]"can be" doesn't fit with the other thing I changed, heh. Maybe just [i]are[/i][/color] too demanding for [strike]some[/strike] [color=red]them. They can be[/color] a nightmare for others. Seniors Halley Boatman and Brittany Belendez [strike]have[/strike] [color=red]Unless is has to be there, but it feels better without it.[/color] struggled through most of their high school experience [strike]due to their individual battles with[/strike] [color=red] This just seems awkward to me. Maybe [i]while dealing with[/i] or similar. [i]Due to[/i] just doesn't fit right.[/color] depression. [strike]Everyone has a different experience with depression,[/strike] [color=red] Everyone's experience with depression is different[/color] but most people end up having the similar problems as a result of their condition. The first step towards [strike]curing[/strike] [color=red]don't know if this is the best choice of words..maybe [i]successfuly treating[/i][/color] is identifying the problem. Some people tend to overlook their emotional problems, which [strike]can only[/strike] [color=red]I think [i]will[/i] would work better in this case. Maybe not, it depends what you're going for.[/color] make things worse. [/size]
