First Journal Entry
Journal Entry: Sat Jan 12, 2008, 10:35 PM
Hi everyone. I hate first entries so I guess I'll do an introduction of myself. I'm called Kira though that is not my real name...yet. I'm getting it legally changed when I'm 18. My passions include reading lots of fiction and dark romance novels, drawing(despite my talents falling much shorter then I'd like), costuming, writing stories, Tim Burton's movies and of course, anime. As far as how I look, well, I used to say "Think of a gothic Kairi(KH2)" but I can't say that anymore because my hair is a bit too long and I died it a dark purple. Though, I guess it gets the general point across.
This year I will be graduating from high school and moving on to college with my sister/best friend, Yuki. Ah, it would probably be a good idea to explain my rather...uh...unique family. When I was young I was found and adopted by my mother. She's told me that when she found me I had no memories of anything, not even my name so she gave me a new name. For elementary and middle school, I went to a small private school where I kept to myself because frankly, it was like hell (no people, I'm not looking for sympathy but it is an important note for later).
Then I went to high school and a girl I had made friends with, Bumu-chan, introduced me to a girl she had met in her science class. Her name was Yuki. At first it was rather awkward but as our conversation continued we found out that we had gone to middle school together and had both been "the outcasts" and the only reason we never met was because she was a year my senior. From that point on we became instant best friends.
A few weeks passed and my mother said that her boyfriend had proposed to her and she said yes. I had already met him a few times when he came over, he was nice and everything but he wasn't the one I was worried about getting along with; I was scared that I was going to hate his daughter whom I'd never been introduced to. My mom and my soon to be step-dad or I guess adopted dad set up a meeting for me and his daughter. It turned out to be my best friend.
Other then Yuki, I have two other friends: Bumu-chan and Kaito. Bumu-chan is our idiot while Kaito is...um...she's kinda hard to explain. Anyway, I'll probably mention them quite a bit.
As much as I hate broadcasting it, I feel I need to inform all potential readers about why there is sometimes a fairly large gap of time before I update my stories. I have an illness that causes me to make many doctor visits, take many pills and stay home from school. Though I have made so many visits and tests done, no one has been able to figure out what is the cause behind my symptoms (which include sharp, extreme pain in my bones, joints and muscles for hours at a time, an allergy to the sun, and a rash that gets darker as my pain grows worse). Until the mysterious disease can be identified and treated, it will be normal for me to have to work harder in school to make up for missed classes and less time for me to write.
The last thing I want to mention is that I probably don't seem all that friendly (and to most I'm not, I'm extremely shy) but don't be scared to measage me or give me polite criticism (especially for my stories). To tell the truth, I like the polite criticism (emphasis on POLITE) more then random praise because it will help me improve and grow. Though it is nice to have the praise sometimes. I mean, really, who doesn't enjoy being appreciated?
