When you say "thanks to someone asking me about them" you were talking about me weren't you? Ha Ha. Though it was not by name this is the first time someone has referenced me in one of their journals, I'm flattered. Anyway your trying to get into a good school? I was curious which school you are talking about since I am a college student myself. I am also currently looking to transfer to a four-year college from a community college I am at now.

Well I was planning on a two year tech college; one of my friends from FFXI suggested a few subjects that all 4 year colleges pretty much accept; agriculture and such like that. Then, once you're in the 4year college, you can take w/e courses you want basically. And yeah, the thanks was to you lol.

My plan currently is to go to Texas State University, originally I was thinking about UT Austin but that school is way too difficult for me to get into especially since I am a Business Major. You would need at least a 3.8 GPA and even 4.0's are not guaranteed to get in. So Texas State is the next best option for me regarding location and money. I am having a hard time finding any job because of my lack of job experience and the recession. Just to ask, are you from America? Also to let you know I noticed on your home page that you are watching Zephyr_Paws. I am watching him too and have read most of his stories. From searching around the site I have noticed some people drew pictures of some of his main characters as a tribute to his stories. One of which is an artist known as SloshedMail and he drew two pictures one from his waxing moon story and one from his brother's bond story. These were both black and white pictures and with permission from the artist I colored these pictures and posted them on my galleries page. Of course I gave SloshedMail credit for the actual drawing. I only did the color job. The only reason I am telling you this is because if you are a fan of his works and want to see a colored version of an artwork that is a tribute to his stories that you may have seen only in black and white I just wanted to let you know a colored version exists.

Yes, I live in America; Wisconsin. (fscking balls cold here...) And I've seen the color versions~ But thanks for telling me anyway.

You might have guessed from my last reply but I live in Texas. Usually we have the opposite of what you have in Wisconsin, a burning hell hole. Anyway since you are a fan of Charmander and his evolutions I wanted to tell you about a great story about a Shiny Charmander and his trainer Evelon. It is called Amore Eterno and it is located at AGNPH.com. This is a site like this one but only about Pokemon. Anyway this story has many chapters like your story and it is still not finished but still it is a fun read. Thought you could check it out if your interested.

lol yeah she's who really got me interested in writing! And this story is actually posted over there too; though I'm not sure when I last updated... I got some time to kill before work, I guess I could check on that.

You mean you have already read Amore Eterno and her story is what inspired you to write? It was updated a few months ago and now has 12 chapters in case you haven't looked recently. I guess it is funny that I would happen to talk about the story that gave you inspiration. I mentioned it because it is a great Charmander/Charmeleon story like yours. I kind of find it hard to believe that you already knew about the story, that I actually found someone who is a fan of her story like I am. After reading hers and Zephyr_paws stories I kind of felt like writing. Meaning I have had some ideas of what I could write about but still I don't know if I will be writing or not. I am pretty good at writing essays and stuff but not really sure if I am capable of writing a super long story. I When you said she got you intrested in writing do you mean her personally? What I mean is do you know the author of Amore Eterno?

I don't know her personally to answer your last question. And yes I've read chapter 12 lol. And to be honest, I didn't think I could write a long story like this myself. As much as I procrastinate lol. But, ya know... I just kinda start typing and let the rest work itself out. Then go back and change maybe a hundred different things and yeah... I just kinda roll with it! As for the inspiration bit, I just liked how her story kinda flowed together. How you could tell each character had their own separate personalities and you could easily define them apart from each other. I use to do little crack-induced joke fictions when I was younger, and afterwards I kinda developed a thing for writing. But I slacked off for a long time until just recently. (I still slack off as you can tell >_>)

Oh, btw, I got my schedule mixed up so I'm actually off tonight and the next two days (either God loves me, or Karma is setting me up for some good ol'fashion raping...) Guess I'll go ahead and pump some chapters out! Maybe start on that new one I thought of... Kinda brain blocking me on the Pokémon one...

Oh Wow! Good luck with that. I can't wait to read what happens next in your story. Yes, I have read the chapters you have posted already lol. That Richard character of yours...anyone who would treat their Pokemon like that don't deserve to be called a trainer. If anything he is scum. As far as your opinion about Evelon's story, I agree with you, I liked the level of sophistication that story possessed. This is the same reason I am a fan of Zephyr_Paws stories and why I am a fan of your stories. I am a bit curious about what your new idea is though I would love to see more of your current story. Also just to ask did you read chapter 12's reviews? A couple of those reviews are from me and the author answered them. She said that somewhere around chapter 14 meaning very shortly from where the story is now Draco and Evelyn would in her words "have explored the depths of a deeper relationship" sounds interesting huh.
