It's happened to us all. You meet a guy, think he's just the sweetest things, then BAM! There is some kind of sign that pretty much screams at you that you and him (or her, if you're a guy reading this, but I'm still referring it from the female mind) are meant to be together. It's destiny, it's fate.... It's all a LIE! I can't tell you how many guys I've crushed on in the last few years where all these different signs tell me I'm suppose to be him, then it turns out that he doesn't like you, or you're not his type, or he turns out to be some kind of lying jerk that you trusted.
I'll be the first to tell you that the fates are just plain cruel. They suck you into believing things we've all been told since we were kids ("sweetie, that boy is picking on you because he likes you... honey, he's just ignoring you because he likes you... babe, he's not calling you because he likes you too much... etc... etc...") and then they give us signs that make us think, "oh hey! me and him will so get together!" Like, for instance, you might see his birthday on certain things, or his name appears in places you've never noticed before, or he just seems to pop up in unexpected places. It's ridiculous! I warn you girls (and guys... or whatever), you see you're crush's name or birthday anywhere and think it's a magical sign, don't believe it, because it's only sitting you up for heartbreak and humiliation. It's happened to me so many times and I hate it. I actually really like a guy now who may like me back (we're talking it out). But, and I just realized this today, his first, middle, and last name are all in Harry Potter, which everyone knows is like the best thing ever to me! Ok, well, technically, his middle name is just one letter short of being my favorite character's last name. His first name is the last name of one of my favorite minor characters, and his last name is the first name of my favorite character's brother. Does that make any sense? Do you follow? Oh well, that's the best I can do without giving away his real name. I'm going to bed so I can get ready for church, so Ciao!

Confessions...
I just got done reading Twin's second to last post and realized she let a big secret slip (and don't think I'm mad, Twin, because i swear I'm not!). I have a confession to make to some of the readers (or just reader... whatever, more people will come some day) that look up to me for being such a Twilight hater. See, there was a time when I did like Twilight. It wasn't an obsession like Twin's (never that big!), but I really liked it. On Facebook, I saw all these pieces of flair that kept saying "I Heart Edward Cullen" or "I Heart Jacob Black" or "Team Bella". I had no idea what they were talking about. Then, in December of my sophomore year (please don't ask me how I remember that... better left unknown), I found out what Twilight was from friends, mainly because they were talking about the Movie coming out. So one of my friends let me borrow the first, and I gotta say, it was kinda hard to get into at first. But I always finish a book that I started (wish I could say the same for journal thoughts and diary entries... my memories always end up fading), so I stuck with it. I remember being 15 with a pink and blue High School Musical beanbag chair and being home alone. We had a Christmas Parade in Amory and I wanted to go, but I had to wait until my 'rents got back home. After Hancock went off, I hopped on my beanbag and began reading, getting to the part where Bella met the Cullens for the first time. After I finished that book, my friend gave me the second book, New Moon, and I finished that one before Christmas break. I waited for her to bring Eclipse, but she never did, so I figured I'd never get to read it. I talked with a bunch of my friends about who was better, Edward or Jacob (first, I thought it was Edward, then after New Moon, I was like, Jacob is sooooo much better, even if he did try to force Bella to be with him!). After I my best friend broke up with her boyfriend for an idiot (which she realizes was dumb, but I still hold it against her), I told her she'd just broken up with a real life Edward Cullen and she didn't realize it. After Christmas break, when I started going to ALC, I meant Breanna and Deanna, the absolute sweetest people ever! (If you and find someone else sweeter than them, tell me because I will fight you. :D) Deanna only knew me for two minutes (Do you hear me people? TWO MINUTES!!!!!!) and she let me borrow Eclipse! I loved her forever after that. Once I was done with that, I read Breaking Dawn and viola! I was done and pretty happy. I even considered myself a twi-hard, now that I think about. Breaking Dawn was my favorie because I love Reneesme (correct my spelling). My mom even got me the Twilight movie for my birthday and once I finished the rough draft of my book, Because You Live, I said in my Acknowledgements part that I hoped one day my books could sell as great as J.K. Rowling and Stephanie Meyers. I think it was around summer, or even before then, that I realized Twilight was completely taking over. It was all over magazines, whereas, you might see Harry Potter mentioned on like, one page, maybe not even one. Plus, I considered Robert Pattinson a total backstabbing betrayer! I mean, sure, he's character got killed on Harry Potter, but he didn't have to turn to the other side! (For you chicks out there who think he's so goregous, I have just one thing to say: really? Have you honestly looked at him? Ewww, he looks like something that crawled out of a cow's butt!) I wouldn't take, so I'm totally devoted to Harry Potter now and nothing can pull me away and I will never stoop that far in Twilight again! But.... I have already read the books, so it would only make sense to watch the movies, right? Right? Right. Don't judge me. Harry Potter will always rock, roll and rule. Oh, and if you think I'm so wrong, think about this: Twilight may be in ever magazine you see, on every channel you watch, but Harry Potter has been around for almost TEN YEARS!!!! It will never get old, while Twilight might be around for another year or two, then get as old as dirt. Harry Potter, though, is and always will be a classic. Booya! Some of you might hate me now, but I'm so okay with that. These are my confessions, and now you know my secret past. Ciao!

My Birthday :-)
I had so many plans for my birthday, but some things got turned around. No matter though, because it was still one of the best birthdays I've ever had. I pretty much stayed up half the night finishing City of Bones by Cassandra Clare. I'm not going to say what happened because someone might wanna read that book, but the thing I will say is that now, Clary BETTER end up with Simon! I wanted them together from the start!
When I finally did wake up in the morning, which was about 8, I got on Facebook and saw over forty people told me happy birthday. I was honestly shocked. That many people have never told me happy birthday before and I can't tell you how loved I felt! Plus, more people were calling and texting me, telling me happy birthday. It was honestly really great.
For my birthday, I got tickets to go see Eclispe from Twin (plus she's paying for my food, plus we're going to the midnight showing! Thanks, Twin!), a Zune from Bethany (it's her boyfriend's old one, but I promise you I'm not complaining), over $100 (and I'm still getting money!), 2 cards and gift cards, and a big ole candy bar! I love me some chocolate, I tell ya! LOL!!!
That afternoon, I was suppose to go to the movies and out to eat with Chris, Justin, my cousin Justin, and Jesyca. My cousin Justin went to a graduation instead, Justin had to stay home, and Jesyca got sick, so it was just going to be me and Chris. Then Bethany said that she wanted to come along, so of course, I let her! She was my ride! She wanted more people to come, so we called everyone in my phone book, and in the end, only two people could come: Wesley and Taylor, whom I love dearly!
Those two didn't get to eat with us, so it was just me, Bethany, and Chris eating at that restaurante mexicana El Toro's in Amory. (Two years of Spanish Class finally paid off!) Chris surprised me by paying for my food, which was my birthday present, and I can't tell you how much I thanked him for it. He paid for Bethany's also, justbecause her birthday was a few weeks ago, on May 4. Me and her also ended up getting pied, which was fun and messy. I wasn't complaining. I mean, I've seen all my friends get pied numerous times, but I've never been pied. I guess you can say it was a dream come true!
After that was over, we headed over to the DC Cinema to watch Iron Man 2. Let me say that earlier that day, I watched Iron Man for the first time, just so I could get ready for the second one. Taylor met us at the movies and Wesley came later on. We were gonna sit in the back, but me and Wesley wanted to sit in the front. Turns out me and him went to the front and the other three stayed in the back.
Let me tell you now, for those of you who wanna see the second movie, WATCH IT!!!!! It is so great, plus there is a surprise at the very end of the credits for those die hard Iron Man fans!
So after the movie, me and Bethany took Wesley home, which was fun, because now I know where he lives and I can roll him at Halloween!!! JK! Or am I?... After that, Bethany took me to get some ice cream. I can only say one thing about that: It was messy. I was a complete and chocolate mess once I got home. HAHA!!
So that's pretty much my brithday and again, it was, and this is the only time I will ever use this word... fantabalous! Grr, I hate that word, but it's the only thing that can describe my day! So now, I'm 17, a senior, and off to have the best summer of my life. Ask Twin all about it. Ciao!

Growing Up So Fast
Today I am babysitting my five-year-old cousin. She isn't as bad as she usually is with me. I'm doing it for my aunt while she's at work. But my cousin is in the living room, watching My Gym Partner's A Monkey, which I haven't watched in a long time, and I'm putting some pictures on Facebook.
Doing all of this, plus the fact I have to do so much before August, just keeps reminding me that I'm growing up. It truly sucks, you know. I mean, just this morning, I was watching Dora the Explorer with my cousin and I was just reminded so much of how it use to be when I was a kid. Back then, it was so awesome to be carefree. Maybe we couldn't get away with anything, but it was fun to pretend we were riding horses just by sitting on the edge of a bed, or running races, playing Hide and Go Seek and Red Rover. We tried to do something like today, people might think we've lost it!
With my birthday coming up, I just keep feeling older and older. Is that normal? I mean, if you knew me, you would swear up and down I was a little kid in a teen's body. I watch cartoons all the time, I can't stay serious for more than a second, and I reminicse about the past in my spare time. But I don't think the last part has anything to do with being a little kid. Everyone loves to think back to happy times, when it seemed that you just couldn't stop smiling. For me, it's fourth and sixth grade. In fourth grade, I had my best friends in world with me and everything just seemed so normal, plus I was still in Amory, my hometown. In sixth grade, we were considered the Seniors of Elementry School, so we always had so much fun everyday, even when we were just doing work.
It doesn't depress me, getting older. Don't get me wrong because it is pretty exciting. We get to do things that we've dreamed about doing since we were five. We're going to be on our own soon, we can travel as much as we want (as long as we have the money), and for some of us, we can get married. But we'll never have a greater stage in our life like childhood.
I really don't know what I'm going to do for my birthday. I mean, I had so much planned. I wanted to go out with friends and see a movie, and my plan B was to spend it with my family. But most of family is going to be in Jackson and my friends are going to be gone. Twin has to take care of her niece and nephew. I would so help her if I could! Well, I still have five more days. Maybe something will unravel before then.
Before I leave this post for the day, I just wanna say that Saturday, May 15, made exactly one year since Taylor O'Neil Smith drowned at Lake Buttahatchie. It was a real lost for so many people at Smithville and we all miss him dearly. Keep his family in your prayers, please. Ciao.

Summer is here!
I am now officially a SENIOR!!!!!! Omg, I never thought this day would come! I can't even began to explain how happy I am. It's just so amazing and I can't stop talking about it. So now that it's summer, I have so much stuff to do to get ready for senior year. I have to get my permit and license, and a job so I can pay for things like senior portraits, senior trips, and other things they want us to remember from our senior year.
Until I can figure out what I'm going to do, I'm staying with my grandma for a while. Well, right now it's only until Wednesday. Thursday is the Hatley graduation and I'm going for Breanna and Deanna (Arianna and Mariposa). Yep, they are leaving me and Twin and it sucks so much! Me and Twin are so gonna leave right after ALC next year and go visit them!
So besides job hunting and going to get my permit, I don't really know what I'm doing for the summer. I was suppose to go to Disney World (because I've never been) and I was going to go to the new Harry Potter themepark. (Um... can you say every Pothead's dream???? Lol!!!!) My best friend Elizabeth (who's ten and a big Pothead like me) wants to go also, but I don't know if she can. She lives in another state, so if she did go this would be my first time meeting her. I told her that the first time I see her, I'm going to pick her up, hug her, then drag her off to play Quidditch with me! TeeHee! I'm such a big kid that will never grow up!
Speaking of growing up, my birthday is a week from today, on the 22. I will be... drum roll please... 17! I'm sorta excited for it, but then again, I'm not. I just don't enjoy the number 17 for various reasons. I would rather skip 17 and go straight to 18. But anyway, I had to decide what I'm going to do for it, and honestly, I still don't know what I'm going to do. I could stay with grandma and see what they do for me, or I could go back home and hang with my friends. I wanted my cousin MaKayla to be with for my birthday, but she's going to Jackson on the 21st and they won't be back until the 23rd. Her softball time won all of their games and their going to state. As happy as I am for her (because it's such an honor!), it sorta sucks. But you know, you gotta do what you gotta do.
I really don't know what to do with my writing. I'm having so much trouble with Because You Live, Ghost of Me, and Twins after Death. Writer's block is such a freaking drag! I mean, my writer's block would only last like, maybe two weeks. I haven't written in any of my books about a month! Seriously, something must be friggin' wrong with me! But no worries, because this past month surely hasn't been wasted. I've been reading other books, which have given me other ideas for my stories. So hopefully, if God's Will, my writer's block will be completely gone very soon. I'm so ready to write and finish this!
That's it for today, so Ciao!

Changes in Friendships
I'm writing with green today, just because green is so my favorite color. I mean, it just rocks, you know? The color of the grass, the color you think of when you think of nature, the color of Dipsy from the Teletubbies (who was the coolest besides Tinky-Wnky!)... Well, you pretty much get my point. Green is an awesome color.
My best friend Chris and I got into a fight today, as usual about every other day. That's just how we communicate. I mean, if we just sat down and talked like normal people... well what fun would that be? It'd feel weird. :-) Anyways, I don't even really remember what we were fighting over. He said something that made me say he wasn't my best friend anymore, which made him laugh and say I couldn't find another best friend like him. (So not true, but don't tell him I said that!) I started naming off random people, like for example, my friend, Joey, and Chris would say something like, "Oh, so I have to be smart to be your best friend?" I guess it was just one of those "you had to be there" moments because Chris is truly a hilarious guy. I don't think you can find anyone funnier and I promise you that.
But the reason I talked about Chris was because while I was naming off random people, I thought about it and realized that some of those people were people I haven't really considered a real friend in a long time. I got home and went through some of my things from fifth grade and up and found a fan-fic I wrote back when I was 12. It was my own version of Harry Potter, except the main character was Niki Chang. Yes, Niki was me. Harry was one of her best friends. She had five other best friends named Viki Chang, who was her twin (It's not the same Twin who's my best friend today. This was before I met her), Emmie Manson, Ashley Dark, Mike Carrey, and Ginny Levi.
Emmie, Ashley, Mike, and Ginny were all based on four of my best friends in the world. For Niki, they were her best friends all the way into her last year at Hogwarts. Seven years is a very long time to be friends with someone, plus to make it work that long. I honestly thought my friendship with my friends would be as long as Niki and her friends, but I was wrong.
The girl who was Ginny was my friend for year, maybe not even that long. We speak sometimes, but most of the time, she walks on by me and probably doesn't even notice me. The girl who was Ashley was the person who got me into writing fan fiction (So I guess I should be thanking her for my writing career) and I thought we would always be close. I don't know when we started to drift apart, but it feels weird to go by her in the hallway and barely smile, let alone just say "Hi." The guy who played Mike was honestly my brother from another mother, and I figured that we'd always be close. Our friendship changed in like, ninth grade, when we realized he was a lot smarter than me than we thought, he got smarter friends. We do still talk, but not as much as I would like. It's mainly just small talk, nothing like when we were kids.
The biggest change of all though is the girl who played Emmie. Me and her were like sisters from fifth grade and up. Then we became juniors and everything just changed some how. I can't really explain it. It's like one day we're laughing and having a good time, and the next, we don't talk and call or text one another. It was just weird. I still hang out with her sometimes, but it's just not the same from when we were kids.
In books, stories, movies, and T.V. shows, friends seem to stay tight all the way from pre-k to Senior Year. It seems impossible for that to happen in real life, but for a long time, I thought it was possible. Now I don't know what to think anymore. I mean, I have Twin, Chris, Mariposa, and Arianna who I love dearly and I imagine to always be my best friends once we graduate high school, but after what happened with my old friends who I also loved dearly at a time, who's to say things won't change?
Next year will be my senior year, and I don't think I have a single friend from Kindergarten who I want to walk down the aisle to get my diploma with. Girls and boys, all ages, listen. The friends you have now are special. You might be friends forever, you might not be. Look at your friends and if you're sure those are the guys you wanna graduate with, who you wanna get your diploma with, make sure you keep them forever. Don't one day regret drifting away from them. Those are my thoughts and advice for the day. Ciao.

In books, stories, movies, and T.V. shows, friends seem to stay tight all the way from pre-k to Senior Year. It seems impossible for that to happen in real life, but for a long time, I thought it was possible. Now I don't know what to think anymore. I mean, I have Twin, Chris, Mariposa, and Arianna who I love dearly and I imagine to always be my best friends once we graduate high school, but after what happened with my old friends who I also loved dearly at a time, who's to say things won't change?
Next year will be my senior year, and I don't think I have a single friend from Kindergarten who I want to walk down the aisle to get my diploma with. Girls and boys, all ages, listen. The friends you have now are special. You might be friends forever, you might not be. Look at your friends and if you're sure those are the guys you wanna graduate with, who you wanna get your diploma with, make sure you keep them forever. Don't one day regret drifting away from them. Those are my thoughts and advice for the day. Ciao.

My real first blog
So, this is my first blog and I'm pretty excited. I'm mean, I've been wanting a blog ever since I found out what one was. Fang has a blog in the Maximum Ride series by James Patterson, and if my blog can ever do as well as his did (like, 22 million followers), can we say "dancing on the roof, celebrating?" :-D That will be me! I got this idea for a blog from my twin, Twin (who, by the way, y'all totally need to follow also!). Me, Twin, Mariposa, and Arianna (nicknames for my real twin friends... looooong story) all love writing so much, it's ridiculous. I really don't know what it is that makes me smile everytime I think of a new character and some random story idea. I think it's just the fact that somehow, I'm inside at least one of my characters in my stories, and that certain character (take for example, Natasha Johnson in my favorite one, Because You Live) is who I wanted to be when I was younger or who I want to be when I'm older, or even who I wish I could be today. It's just so utterly amazing, and not just anyone can understand the feeling. You have to really, honestly, truly get into writing to understand what I'm talking about.
As Twin said in her blog, I started out writing Harry Potter fan fiction. I look back on some of the fan-fics I wrote when I was, like, 12, and I laugh because they actually sound better than my books I'm writing today! I have an account on Mugglenet.com, under the name Niki Libby Chang, where you can read any of my fan-fics if you dare. If I get more people reading them, I'll try to update more.
Writing those few fan-fics when I was a kid is what got me started on this rampage I'm on now. I mean, right now, I'm writing two books and a short story. Once I get writer's block for one story, I just start on the next one, which somehow leads me out of my writer's block. Does that make sense? Who cares? I'm writer! Doesn't have to make sense! :-)
As the name says, my writing most always begans with a dream. I go to bed at night dreaming about what I can do to make something just perfect in my books. I need something that I know will sell, that I know will make it the greatest American novel someday (Don't ruin my dream!!!!). Okay, some of you out there now are saying, "Wow, this chick needs to get a life," because you are CRUEL, while others are thinking, "Wow, this chick is dedicated to this," because they aren't as CRUEL!!!! I do have a life. I go out with friends on Saturdays to the movies and out to eat just like any other teenage girl. I guess my life is just a little more... so to say... creative. I'm saying that the best way possible because I don't want a girl with low self-esteem to read, run and tell her mom I called her stupid and uncreative, then I get booted off the blog. Have I explained how much I actually need this blog? There is one very important reason I left out, and I kick myself for even leaving it out. RUPERT GRINT!!! For those of you oblivious to this amazing, goregous red-head, he's Ron Weasley in Harry Potter. I'm going to marry him one day, so girls, stay away, cause he's mine. Just saying. LOL! Well, I'm going to work on a project for history (it's neaing the end of my junior year and I have a big project to do), so I'm leaving my very first real blog, hoping I didn't bore anyone to tears. Even if I don't get any comments, I'll be back! Ciao!
