[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: She freaks me out. Ever since my friend and I did research on her when we were younger.

Yes! I could see that, too!! XD

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: You know what freaks me out? The ghost which presumably lives in my house. You know why? Because it walks on my bed. While I'm in it. All the time.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: ... Excuse me? O.O

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: There is a ghost which lives in my house, in my room (allegedly.) Sometimes--read: often--while I'm trying to get to sleep, the mattress sinks, as if it's under new weight when there's no one in my room but me. Like some has sat on or is crawling around on top of my bed.

Me: Bloody Mary reminds me of Supernatural Why are we talking about an old more that was used to scare kids into behaving?

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: Conversation tends to trail very quickly into odd territory around here, Sea.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: That is scary. We used to have ghosts when my mom lived in the house as a teen, but they've gone dormant since then? Sometimes strange things happen, but there's usually an explanation for it. Usually.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Generally at night. Like our little story with The Woods and the closet. XD

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: The night. It does something to my head, it must. It would certainly account for a lot.

[sucre'd fiend]

Me: I see movement in the corner of my eye when I'm alone in my room at night. >.> Fortunately for me, I don't feel fear much anymore. I've been desensitized to it.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Strange but awesome things have happened here during the night. XD

Me: This, my friend, is a good thing. You will be ready when someone decides to attempt to make you the first five minutes of a horror movie. XD

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: That would be great to be desensitized to fear. My life would be so carefree.

[sucre'd fiend]

Me: I usually watch horror movies to laugh at them. Watching shows like Supernatural can make you do that after watching all eight seasons.

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: I'm going to have to get around to viewig that show. Everyone seems to love it.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: I have no idea what Supernatural is. XD But I like watching horror movies. The real horror movie? Soul surfer. I thought I was going to cry, but I didn't because I thought it would have been rude for the friend I was watching it with.

[sucre'd fiend]

Me: I watch for the gorgeous brothers and the adorable angel the plot

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: You know you've reached a certain level of apathetic emptiness when you are practically addicted to the Internet but you don't look at (let alone think about getting on) your laptop all day.

I need school to start. Hopefully, roleplaying will start to feel amazing again when I don't have the opportunity to do it 24/7.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Still not feeling any better? :/ I hope you get yourself out of this soon.

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: So do I, goddamn it. I have a group to finish and roleplays to catch up on. >.< My brain should cooperate with me for once.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Maybe you need sleep? Or encourage yourself by re-reading old RPs that were awesome.

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: Sleep might be a part of it. I'm currently having problems with insomnia. Even though I wake up early and don't take naps during the day, I try to go to bed at midnight and end up lying there for three hours while sleep just kind of lingers in the back of my mind and laughs at me. I want to sleep, it's not like I'm not tired--I just can't. Which is ridiculous.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: I hate when that happens. I sit in a very dark room and keep my eyes shut and manage my breathing so it's deep and slow. Chamomile tea helps, or this brand called SleepyTime tea.

If you're entirely desperate, take some sleep medicine.

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: I've never tried those calming techniques; I have a feeling that they wouldn't work. According to my parents, my problem is that I "can't turn my brain off."

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: And that happens sometimes. Try your best to clear your head or again, turn to some sort of sleeping thing like tea or ZzzQuil.

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: I'm not a fan of tea, but I doubt it's the only drink out there. I'll look for others.

I just hope it clears up before school starts. I can't function in an IB setting zombified. *sigh*

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Warm milk is supposed to help. I wouldn't know, though, it's nasty in my opinion.

That would definitely not be good and the classes would only be harder. :(

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: But I doubt you simply wish to hear about my problems. ¿Qué tal?

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Meh, I don't mind. I'm basically a therapist for most of my friends.

Fairly well. Had a lazy day today, I suppose and the family went into counseling today to discuss things together as a last session. It was an easy day today. Anything else with you other than your Insomnia and Internet problems?

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: I've been reading my Spanish textbook before school even starts. I'm pleased to know that I can read and understand the first two chapters.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Good for you! I haven't done much Spanish over the summer, and I should have. I'm nervous for this year because my teacher before didn't teach us things that were important (for example, I had to translate what you just said, thought I understood what) and this new teacher, I love her to pieces, is more strict but useful. Then college Spanish and that makes me nervous. >.< Hmmph. That's out if the way now.

Is this the first year starting Spanish or have you done a little in the past?

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: ¿Qué tal? just means What's up? XD

I've never officially taken a Spanish class before, but I've watched quite a bit of online tutorials and I have a couple Spanish speaking friends, so my knowledge is there but minimal. I'm trying to decide whether I want to go in to class and greet my Spanish teacher in Spanish. I could hold a pretty decent (basic, but decent) conversation with her--only I don't want to seem like a showoff.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: But for What's up, I was taught ¿Que pasa? Instead. Which also makes it hard because for example, what I would be taught in Spanish class (I think versions used in Spain? Maybe? Not sure) would be different than what Juana or Carlos might have been taught based on where their family came from. There are many different kinds of Spanish. It's all understandable by a native, I suppose, but that makes it more difficult for us to learn as well.

I've heard that the videos are extremely helpful, and I've tried some but didn't find them stellar, though this year I suppose I better try to maintain my high grade.

I'll bet she was impressed, especially knowing it was your first year! You at least know mor than the majority of your class, I'll bet, and that's probably narrowed down to what they've heard from Dora the Explorer. XD She's actually a life saver in high school.

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: European Spanish, Mexican Spanish, and Latin American Spanish are the three types. There might be more, but I don't think so.

There are lots of different ways to say the same phrase. Kind of like how in English "Yo" and "hi" and "hello" and "what's up?" and "how goes it" all mean the same thing: they're all informal greetings.

So should I do it?

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: I think you're right? But I'm not sure? Because someone in Ecuador could be saying the same thing to a person in Peru, but the person from Peru would say it differently. Which is why I'm grateful to have my teacher from Peru who knows both types to teach.

True, I just wasn't taught all of the meanings for different greetings. I figured that's what you were saying, but I had to double check because in my school it was Que pasa is What's up and they didn't say anything else about it.

I think you could, so long as you know your boundaries. If you want to impress her but not feel like a show-off an have your classmates think you're a "try-hard" then keep the conversation minimal, but use enough Spanish to demonstrate that yes, I actually know some Spanish and I'm not too horrible at it.

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: XD Okay.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Can I just mention that for some reason Stephen King remind me a lot of Raven? (Actually that's bass ackwards, but hey) I just wrote a comment about it in my thing for Skeleton Crew. xD

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: Stephen King reminds you of Raven or Raven reminds you of King?

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Raven reminds me of King, and you should take that as a compliment. :)

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: You wrote a comment? I see no comment.

Raven: Compliment taken.

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: Wait, I see it now.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: If you look at my progress thing under what I'm currently reading, it's the newest one and there's only two.

I was reading his introduction and the things he said, I'm sitting here and I'm like, "Is Raven or King speaking to me?" It's kinda funny.

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Raven: Maybe we're the same person.

Me: Is that possible?

Raven: Anything is possible in the dark. And the mind is a very dark place.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: I would say no, but that would mean contradicting Raven, and he threw an axe at me the other day, so I'll stick with maybe. xD

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Raven: Clever girl. You certainly learn faster than some.

Me: Raven!

Raven: What? I speak the truth.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Faster than Ro-
Juana: Chica!
Me: Oh, yeah. I mean, thank you! :3 I love when Raven compliments me, it's so rare!

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: That was a mocking kind of compliment--the only kind of compliment Raven ever gives. XD

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: It still makes it a compliment, so I'll enjoy it. XD

[Hope , I belong here more than they do.]

Me: In fact, I've just realized something. If Raven isn't either smirking, raising an eyebrow, or winking at you while giving you a compliment, your next move should be immediately to tackle him and demand to know who he is and what's happened to the real Raven.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis), Life's a dance, you learn as you go.]

Me: Now that you mention it, I would say I have to agree with you wholeheartedly.
