*************************************Update status. (9/18/08, 6:37 PM)
This is just me presenting an apology for not being active recently...I've been rather busy with schoolwork, and my head's been clouded to top it off. I should be back in the hang of things soon.
Love and Peace,

**************************************************************************Updated stuff! ^.^ (8/31/08, 7:20 PM)
Hoorah! I added an inspirational poem from yours truly to the top of my page, even above the update panel. A little something I think about my poetry for people to think about. I hope my poems continue to inspire those who read them, for I am constantly inspired by you all. So, thank you all! ^__^
Love and Peace,

**************************************************************************Belated Birthday update!! (8/12/08, 3:02 PM)
Yay! I'm 19 now! Unfortunately, the age counter on the author's homepage doesn't update itself, so I've found out, so I've had to do it myself...I didn't think to do so until today. X.x Anyway, I suppose I'm just waiting on more poetic inspiration for now. RP-ing's still not a big thing for me, but I guess it comes with time.
Love and Peace,

**************************************************************************A Poetic Benchmark...for me, anyway. (7/30/08, 11:28 PM)
I actually wrote this earlier today, but didn't get a chance to put it in my updates until now. I have now written my first 100-line poem!! Yes, poem #27..."An Aged Bottle of Memory." 100 lines, or at least that's this website's system's analysis, and that's what I'm going by. ^_^
Hoorah for poetry!
Hope you all enjoy this new addition, and what's yet to come!
Love and Peace,

**************************************************************************Group Updates (7/15/08, 12:34 AM)
Well, if many haven't noticed already, I've left most of my groups. This being because I'm not that great an RPer. I am about to rejoin Haven, simply because I left some unfinished business (at least I was able to finish out Dark Wood, which I may also go back to in the future and appear as a returning guest). I really felt pretty bad the other day...lots of crap happened. Plus, some groups I just wasn't active in, and others didn't have anything happen for months (sometimes longer). I might get back in the swing of multi-RPing...but that will probably come with storywriting as well.
Another motivation is that previously, I had no idea that I was known, at all, in the RPing world. Yet, according to some testimonies (namely Gale), more people know me than I think. Though I am still in doubt, I was also told that at one point, my presence was requested in a challenge...I am going to check if that thread is still there. Besides, my fight with Void still stands unfinished, even though he hasn't replied in a while. X.x
I will slowly try to spread my wings once more in the realm of role playing...but slow it shall be.
Love and Peace! (picture of Vash should go here)

**************************************************************************Do I spot...AN UPDATE!? YES! (7/12/08, 1:34 PM)
Ahh, yes...finally, an update. Almost a month since the last one...wow.
Anyway, I've been taking an online class, so I've been on and off this site for a while...it will continue to be that way 'til August, unfortunately...X.x However, I have managed to put up quite a few new entries, for those that haven't seen them yet. I'm also in a rounds contest currently, so that kinda requires my activity...and I'm glad. ^.^
Enjoy the new stuff, and I'll see you next time!

**************************************************************************Updating the updates...again (6/13/08, 9:29 AM)
Ah-HAH! New space conservation ideals have dictated my recent actions to the point of making this column!!...and any further space conservation thought has since been halted, simply because I cannot figure out how to bottle the emptiness of space...yet.

**************************************************************************UPDATE MADNESS!! (5/23/08, 7:23 PM)
I changed my profile organization a little bit. I'm only going to keep my most recent updates up here at the top, then keep my intro next. If people want to see what I've been up to in the past after deciding they want to know more about me and...my updates...then the old ones are there. ^.^
All the best,

**************************************************************************A new weapon at hand!!! (5/8/08, 4:09 AM)
I have discovered a new sword! Behold:
o}--{=======>
The power of curly braces! (haha)
I really like this new design; however, as far as me putting it in my optional preview of my poetry as I normally do, I think this special sword will only be put in the previews of what I deem to be some of my best, most difficult-to-write poetry, starting with my most recent (and 20th!!!) poem, Seasons. I think it'll add some suspense when people see it. If not, then it'll make me feel that way, at least. Just trying to have some fun with it. ^.^
Also, I have started my Commenting Crusade. Who knows when it will end??? I sure don't. Nor do I know the rate at which it will progress. I just know it's started already. Almost without my consent - you great poets are constantly writing, and I had to get busy.
However, in any case, nevertheless, I think I'd better retire to my sleeping chambers now....it's pretty early, and I need some rest. (zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz)
Keep a ready quill and mind!

**************************************************************************Update of the update, plus another update: (4/20/08)
Well, I've decided that the commenting "system" described earlier is probably best used as a constructive-critique for judging and what-not, and probably not for ALL of my comments. I don't know why, but it just seems...well, too critical sometimes. I probably haven't used the format enough to really tell, but I'll just use that and my old commenting method (which is just like everyone else's), switching off every now and then (or upon request, which I really don't expect).
Anyway, hopefully soon, when I get the chance, I will commence the Commenting Escapade...which is just some made-up name for a period of time that I'll be going through every friend I have and commenting on EVERY ONE of their poems...quite a slow process, it will be. However, I'm not doing this because I want comments, or because I want attention...I just feel like I need and want to.
My reasoning? I think that I added them to my list for two reasons, at the very least...one, bottom line, they are awesomely poetic in their entries (with Gale as an exception, because he hasn't posted his ideas yet), and they're great friends to me. I should at least pay tribute to such awesome people. ^.^
I don't have a set date, of course, but I think you'll know when I do. [muahahahahahahaaaaaa]
Keep the ink flowing and the mind's quill working!

**************************************************************************Quick update: (4/15/08)
My comments are starting to grow in size, and vary in detail. Since my comments are starting to follow a pattern, I've just started using a system of markers for good/bad/etc. points of view. Allows for a little judge-quality/avid supporter/devil's advocate mixup. ^.^
+ good point (hooray!)
- bad point (usually a suggestion of spelling, or something similar)
+/- good and bad (or potential for either one)
~ neutral (ya can't classify it all...^.^)
If people don't like what I've got going here, I'm sure I'll hear about it. And I'll probably change my commenting ways then. We shall see. =)
