Mar. 15, 2009 - Changes, Changes, Changes!
Ha ha! A new template! Yay! *dances*
It was originally meant for a Jane Austen fan site that I never opened, but, with a little tweaking, works perfectly for this site!
Another change, as well, has taken place, if you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page, you'll see my playlist! I had trouble putting it up with my old template, but I got it this time! It's not set on auto play, so you'll have to play it yourself. And while you're there you have to listen to If You're Not the One by Daniel Beddingfield, it's number 48. (they're alphabetized by artist, then song)
Well, I have recently been playing around with my wardrobe and make up. I have a habit of wearing the exact same outfit all the time, and it gets monotonous.
On Saturday I had a photo shoot to show off a brand new outfit I created! I rather like the way both the outfit, and the pictures turned out (and you may call it vain of me to take pictures of myself, if you must, my mother did, but I still say it's artistic!)
I also went to Ulta on Saturday with my mom, and got a new powder foundation for myself. My mom also bought a couple nail polishes, and we got a free gift full of make up, which my mom generously let me have. :D
As far as my writing goes.... it is slow. I am trying to finish the second draft of Audra, by the end of March, in which case I have to do one chapter a day. I am five or six days behind. *sighs* The good news is that I'm off school this week, so I am going to try to catch up, while still working on my new story.
You see, me and my family are going down to visit my Aunt Mary and Uncle Duane the first week end in April. My dad's whole family is going (which includes Molly and Anna, among others) and I want to have Audra done before then, so I don't have to worry about it. But I also want to have several chapters of my new story done then, too, because this will be my Aunt Mary's 50th birthday, and for her birthday I am going to give her the first several chapters of my book, which is set at the Koinania Ranch (as I call it :D).
Anyway, this is a rather long post, and I had better get writing. God bless!

Wow, Katie! I love your outfit, and your hair! You have gorgeous long hair! I wish my hair were that long! *grin*
Anyways, I am glad to hear that Audra is coming along! I hope you finish her by the end of March like you want to! I'm sure break from school helps a lot. I don't get my break for another two weeks (this and the next). It's horrible.
I love the template, by the way. I've been thinking about changing the one for my Da'ethia blog, because I'm sick of the Doctor Who/space theme, but when it comes to nice templates like yours I really do not do so well. *rolls eyes* I'll have to fiddle with it later, when I have time...which I rarely ever have.
Hope you are having a nice day!

You are welcome. I used to have long hair, never as long as yours though, and then I had to get it cut because the ends were all nasty like. Now my hair is shoulder length...I would rather have it long than short.
I do not! I have GIMP, but it does not work for things like that. Nice things, anyways. Oh well, I make with what I have. :) I changed my temp, and it looks better without pictures and things.
*looks nervous* I am sure I know what you are talking about. ^^ I saw your NaNo page, and if you are following that description there at all.... lol When I have time, which should be tonight, I'll catch up on Audra! :)

Wow, a template change! I must say the other one was more "you" (probably because this one isn't as colorful), but it's still beautiful. :)
When people tell me I'm vain for taking photos of myself, I just tell them that I'm my only model and am making do under the present circumstances. That usually silences them. (Even my dad!)
I like your new fashion photos, especially the first one. Such nice, warm colors!
Missed you at PE today. :(

*strides in, liking what she sees* I LOVE the color of the background, I have a T-shurt that color [with white stripes] and reminds me of coffee and chocolate. Best wishes for Audra! Would you mind telling me whenever you post something of it? Oooh, is that you in those peekchurz? Yer purty! I may write you into a book! The NaNo Peoples as I call y'all had better be careful, I'm liable to put you all into novels and then let R.K. torture you all. >:-D
WHO got Maddock??? I LIKE the name Maddock! *sobs* It reminds me of a poisonous herb, but STILL!!! *waves arms around*
I luve yer playlist!!! It'll prolly become one of those which I listen to incessantly as I haunt the chatzy and write like a madman in M'aine...or something. *grins* ANYhoo. I'd tried adding you as a friend ages ago but nothing came of it...*hint hint*
God bless,

Oh Katie, I love your new template!! It's absolutely gorgeous, and it fits you so well!! Definately 'Caitie'. ;)
I'm so glad you get to go to BM!! Writing deadlines are hard, but when you're headed toward something like that, it's worth it, isn't it? Anyways, I'll be praying that your writing picks up again, and that you finish on time!! You go, girly!!
(And I LOVE the outfit, if I didn't tell you before!!)

Firstly, I just noticed the lovely floral footer at the bottom of your template. Beautiful!
Secondly, I still can't get over the shock of seeing a song by AFI on your playlist. Will wonders never cease?
That is all.

LOL! Glad you're not dead! And I'm glad your next chapter is up! Right now I have promised to read so many stories, though, so it might be a while before I catch up... *grimace*
I'm good. Busy. My writing is coming along just fine. I finished chapter five of TP and started chapter six, and am almost at 40,000 words! Yay! (My goal is 100,000 though. Oh no.... Not even half way there.)
I'm glad for you! I'm happy things are coming along, well!
Ooh. Books. *looks at the pile of about ten books, six which being from the library* Yeah, I don't need any more books at the moment. I'll never finish all the ones I snagged!
I just noticed, you'll be leaving the day SF starts! :( I won't be able to cling to you when everything goes bad!
Ah well, I hope you have a lot of fun! I'll cling to Cherise instead, then. *grin*

*drags, kicking and screaming, over to the forums*
Cherise and I are trying to revive it. *grins* Don't make me kidnap you! Or hit you with a squishy lima bean!
*hugs*
