Meet and Greet

[vnud29]

So, I got an award in the mail today. Apparently I'm a AP Scholar with Honors, that's good right?
Any trueblood fans? I watched the fanale last night and it was kind of anticlimatic. I expected far more.
Yesterday was my one year anniversary with my sweetheart I was so happy.

[silverwriter01]

Congrads all around Yuri. Well except for the trueblood finale but can't help you there.

[Scotti]

Whoo Hoo right on Yuri, good on ya!! Congrats!!

Again I defer to DK, she is a Trueblood watcher. I have the dvd's (thnx DK) for the 1st season, but I am not up to date for anything after that. I sadly don't have HBO..

Scotti

[vnud29]

Thanks Guys At least someones happy for me. My family sucks monkey poo right now.
DK and I must discuss this lol
Oh and did anyone watch the VMAs? Kanye is the biggest arrogant asshole jerkface I've ever seen on live television. Way to ruin Taylors first VMA award.

[silverwriter01]

I didn't watch the awards but I watched what happened. Uggg. Kanye... That was just being a jerk-off. Poor Taylor Swift. It's a good thing no one tried that at the CMA awards, someone would have gotten hit that's all I'm saying.

And I'm sorry your family isn't happy for you Yuri. You're right, they do suck monkey poo.

[vnud29]

ahahahahaha I would have loved to see that. I'm surprised no one like...stopped him. What an asshole. Damn, poor Taylor I feel bad for her. She looked like she was going to cry, not that I blame her. At least beyonce tried to make it better for her.

I have three sister and I live with my eldest. I can't really talk about my relationship much cause they don't want to explain it to my nephew (9). I guess they don't want to expose him yet. But whatever. Screw them. I can talk a little with my other family members but not like I'd want. But I have great friends so it's cool.

[silverwriter01]

Your friends are your family too. Sometimes even better then your bloodkin cause you can pick your friends.

[erjohnson007]

Congrats Yuri An AP Honors and a year anniversary are 2-4-1 great!!!

True Blood Fan - Yepper but I have yet to see the finale!
Kanye West is a jerk off of epic proportions (has worse word for him...but I feel like not bringing out the earmuffs for anyone) - No doubt about it!
Beyonce was a class act though as well as Taylor.

Well it is off to studying for me know...*goes back into the study corner*

[silverwriter01]

Well it is off to studying for me know...*goes back into the study corner*

I gotta go back to my study corner too. Tomorrow I'll be in the library all day studying physics.

[vnud29]

Thanks
It would seem I need to rescue both from that abyss called the "corner". But how? Hmmm.....Then you could both pull me in with you....maybe it's not worth the risk! lol Studying sucks. Just stating the obvious here.

Hey I got an idea for a contest here for the athenaeum. Wanna listen? Well, you don't have a choice cause I'm gonna say it anyways lol
I was thinking that the challenge could be to re-write novels that have a male/female pairing and turn them into ladies. It could range from disney movies to classical shakespeare. Any move, tv show, novel, comic or anything that you've ever had the urge to change to a female/female pairing. Of course, the challenge is to stay very close to the original plot and make the characters believable. That would be what is voted on. However, changing the sexes will of course change some plot lines, but for example for the movie Titanic....you can't save the boat lol It must still sink. Something like that can't change. What do you guys think? I'm pretty sure everyone's read a novel that wasn't lesbian and pictured the characters as both females. This would just make it concrete and on paper.

[celticmusicrocks]

Yuri I think we could tempt them out with homemade cookies. Chocolate chip maybe? Or I have this killer pumpking cookie recipe. Then we wouldn't run the risk of being sucked down into the vortex of studying. Been there, done that, ain't gonna do it again for a while. Congrats by the way on making AP Honors!!! That's fantastic!!! And congrats on it being your annversary! And I think your idea would be entertaining at the very least.

We couldn't post anything that was based on a novel. We have a few little stories based off of novels, but a rewrite would not be a good idea. Sorry.

[vnud29]

Awww...shucks. Alright, thanks Bardeyes.

[silverwriter01]

I think that takes a few steps closer to plagiarism Yuri then most fanfiction go. Scotti and I were talking about that on another topic, about wanting to rewrite the In-depth Series by JD Robb so that the man is woman. But I've been looking into it and JD Robb is really against people writing on her stories. I don't want to piss off JD Robb (aka Nora Roberts)...the horror of making Nora Roberts mad at me... My Mama would kill me...

Still, it's a nice idea, just not doable. I suppose you could say "Inspired by..." and have some major twists.

[vnud29]

Yeah, you're right lol Oh well, it sounded good in my head yes?

*headdesk* Why does applying to colleges so stressful and exspensive? Just to freakin apply....I'm not liking being smart right now

[Bardeyes]

I suppose you could say "Inspired by..." and have some major twists.

You could, but we still wouldn't post it. Some print authors love to sling their lawyers around like a friggin' chakrams of evil. We have no desire to ever tangle with lawyers again on The Athenaeum. Twice was two times too many.

Twice? Really? May I ask who the authors were?


And yes, Yuri, applying for colleges is a *headdesk*

I'd really rather not talk about the names. These were fanfic authors that later published, and...well...I guess it's water under the bridge now.

[silverwriter01]

Okay, I understand Bardeyes.

Oh my god yall when will band practice end!?! The marching band has been at it since like 3 o'clock. It's 9:30, time for you kids to go home. That's what I get for having my apartment next to the high school.

[vnud29]

Marching band is crazy. I have friends on my highschools band, and they practice for hours out on the hot football field. I feel kinda bad, but I know they are all generally doing it because they love to do it.
