YES, WHAT BOOK ARE WE REFERRING TO??

totally one of the best realistic fic authors out there right now.

The very first time I remember you, you are blonde and don’t love me back.
The next time you are brunette, and you do.
After a while I give up trying to guess if the colour of your hair means anything.
because even if you don’t exist, I am always in love with you.
I remember most fondly those lifetimes where we get to grow up together,
when you share your secrets and sorrows and hiding places with me.
I love how you play along with my bad ideas,
before you grow up and realize they are bad ideas.
(And in our times together I have many bad ideas.)
When we meet as adults you’re always much more discerning. I don’t blame you.
Yet, always, you forgive me.
As if you understand what’s going on, and you’re making up for
all the lifetimes in which one of us doesn’t exist,
and the ones where we just, barely, never meet.
I hate those. I prefer the ones in which you kill me.
But when all’s said and done, I’d surrender to you in other ways.
Even though each time, I know I’ll see you again, I always wonder
is this the last time?
Is that really you?
And what if you’re perfectly happy
without me?
Ah, but I don’t blame you; I’ll never burn as brilliantly as you. It’s only fair
that I should be the one
to chase you across ten, twenty-five, a hundred lifetimes
until I find the one where you’ll return to me.

No idea, but I like it... Do you know where it came from?

I ave no idea, that's why I'm asking! It's driving me insane because it's all over tumblr, but no one knows who came up with it!

You've got me looking now... I can only trace it back to that one with the drawings (Which is AMAZING!) but I'm not sure if they wrote it or anything :/

It's driving me crazy!

Awesome! She sounds great! What book of hers would you recommend I start with?

Just saw this on Tumblr:
IS IT REAL?????"
I have no idea what that is, but IT'S GORGEOUS!

:D
I can't stop smiling. I'm just so happy.
Here's the goodreads summary: Sinner
I haven't been on here in forever. Someone wanna talk?


Has any of you read Dune by Frank Herbert?

I read Dune probably about 20 years ago, when I was majorly into SciFi. I thought it was great, the sequels less so.

Thank You!

YES! AP Bio is wonderful! Love that class!

I wish I was taking an amazing, interesting science class (that involves lab work). I am at least taking one science course, which is Dual Credit Psychology! It iiissss interesting, because it talks about EVERYTHING in life!
What is AP Biology like?

It is so much fun! Our teacher is really awesome and he gets that a lot of the kids in class are super involved in stuff so he gets it if you have to miss a day here and there and is willing to work with you if you fall behind. At least once a unit, he gives us a lab, which he calls an "assay" and we come in and do it. Then we talk over the results as a class and discuss data and how we think the lab ran. The day or two after that lab we then manipulate the assay lab regulations to find a new results.
So say in the assay you looked at how well a protein worked in particular conditions. On your own, you could manipulate those conditions to see if it made the protein more or less effective.
It's super hands on, which is cool. Not like a lot of classes I've taken before.


I need a life.

Yeah, it's hard because on one hand it's (usually) oh, yay relatives but on the other it's like, please leave me alone I'm busy doing what looks like nothing but is really actually something.
