A piece of art

What I've always wanted to write was something adventurous or something out of the ordinary. I've always wanted to write about something so completely original- I mean I write about relationships in my novel (which is not published yet). I want to come up with something genius- like This is How it Happened By Jo Barrett. Something different- a piece of art. I just started reading This is How it Happened today and it starts off very amusing- although the chapters are not to lengthy, they still are pretty interesting.
Very amusing- love the comedy that's squeezed into this novel! Along with The Beach House By Jane Green. Wonderful work- you never know when things are about to turn around and the author keeps the reader so surprised all of the time right up to the end. I love how the story ended and how the loose ends were all tied up at the end, but I didn't want this book to end!
I love many other books, but there are certain things that I've always wanted to write about- like i said in the beginning, adventure.
Something nice and well thought out- different, original, exciting. I want my readers to love my writing. But I can never think of anything so great.. For example, Jumanji. A M A Z I N G. Great movie! I sometimes wonder how they came up with it and then think about imagination. Well sorry to say but my imagination can only run so far without getting all messed up and crammed and then the story I think about is totally and completely screwed. Not going there:]

A Real Creeper


What most people undertake in life would be crushes.. You know- you like someone.. Well not really 'love' like if you know what I mean. But there are certain people who like someone a little more than necessary- to the point where that person thinks that the guy/girl he or she likes is completely head over heals in love with them. Well for you guys- I'm sorry. That's not life. And life's not fair.
I know of one of my friends who behave in this manner and it confuses me to death. I mean I sit there and listen to her talk and talk and talk about her crush (who she now calls 'her man') and I get a little annoyed. Hell- sometimes she even throws in the 'she better stay off my man' thing. Sad to say- she does not text him, call him, or even talk to him (very rarely they even say 'hello'). I feel very bad about this.. She's scaring the poor guy away- I mean he even admits that he does not like her.
I look at him and I think.. Man I feel terrible.. poor guy. Well I want to tell her what she's doing.. But I can't just be straight forward and say 'you're a creeper'. That right there would be terribly rude and I'm still her friend ya know? I still have to be there for her when she is crying and I defiantly do not want to be the reason for her tears. What's even more terrible about this is that the guy that my friend likes was in love with me.. And I couldn't help but like him back- he was perfect. He had respect for people, he showed maturity, he was great from heart and I knew he would always keep me happy.
Heck- we even went on a date with some friends. But a little later- I think it was maybe a week I realized I could not do this anymore. Dating you're friends crush.. That would tear her apart and I really don't know what I was thinking. So I laid off little by little until we were nothing.. But still- I think of him just a teeny bit.
Just a little bit.
