Author's Note:Inspired by Leah, I will put up this preface. The story itself may suck, but I kind of like my preface. I might try to summarize it later. It would be nice if someone who is more adult than me can tell me what it's like to be an adult.
“Change”
It’s amazing how much life can change in however many years we’ve been existent. There are a lot of things associated with that. At 20-some odd years, people will still call you young, yet you have lived through over two decades, and so many things can change in those over two decades. I mean, so many things can change in just one year. Or even a month.
A week.
A day. An hour.
A minute.
A second.
Lots of things happen that change us. Although it may be our choice to how we react to those changes, things will happen that will ultimately change us.
For better, or for worse.
People might hurt us; that may make us feel confused or angry or depressed. People might compliment us and bring up our confidence. Or, people will tell us something, and that might get us thinking, that might get us doubting, or assist us in finding something that we might have been looking for. Or make us face something we’d been fighting, or running from.
Changes can’t just be based on circumstances we can’t help. Changes can be from our own choices. How we react to circumstances beyond our control, changes us. What we choose, impacts our lives. Whether big or small, it just may change our life.
Whether a change will be good or bad is based on our own choices. Right or wrong, good or bad, internal or external.
AN: What do you guys think? Just let me know. It's super vague, but here's the story:
There's Ben Errickson, resident dreamer and optimist, Christian, and Marriage Counselor intern, with high hopes for the future and the future of his career. He'd gone through a lot, with his parents' divorce, and his sister's former teenage pregnancy. Now grown up, at around 26, his sister having such a ridiculous success in life with child and husband, as well as his parents' successful remarriages, and really hoping with God in his heart and thoughts, he wants to make things happen for other couples. He wants to work in the field to heal couples, but is well aware of how relationships can fail, and has learned to accept it, as difficult as it is. He is far in his progress from adolescence and those days. And has a strange attraction toward a girl in the workplace, that interests him out of the mystery of her problems and outwardly coarse attitude.
Erin is harder to explain. I still haven't figured her out entirely.
Erin Martensen has a counseling job that has something to do with girls who put themselves in compromising or dangerous situations or used to be in them. Though the job is serious, and the girls are sensitive, she is constantly, loudly, encouraging them to just live for themselves and do what they think is right and get out of whatever bad situation they're in. And not to mention, blames the guys entirely who often give them the problems in her perspective. She almost seems out to get the entire male population at times. She is not at all conventional with this, and is sometimes too loud to listen. She believes that no one should have control over anyone else. She comes on too strong, and acts like she's strong, and seems to not "take crap". And she doesn't let too many people in. But no one at the Center they work at really knows her that well. At one point, she was just like the girls in the groups she watches over, but after feeling guilt and pain and fear, she built up a shell of sarcasm and control and bitterness that she doesn't like to admit she has. And underneath it, she blames the person from her past, and curses herself for never standing up, making it her goal to make sure as many people as possible never have to reach that position again. Ben annoys the crud out of her, but only over time will she soften and open up again, through him at first.
Too cheesy/cliche/unrealistic/stupid/weird/sexist (ha)/dumb/strange/etc.? Let me know. Really. I want as much critque as possible on this because I want to be accurate. Or at least to a point. I know it's my story, but I've gotta write for readers, not just myself.

*presses those electric heart-startthingstoblog* REVIVE! MERRY CHRISTMAS!/HAPPY HOLIDAYS! (And life-musings.)
Promise to self and others:
I WILL POST THIS POST

Ai'ight, sorry guys for being gone forever... Dx
I love you guys, though! Seriously!
Leanne has been having internet issues for a very long while nowzzz, so it ish sad. D':
But Rose and her family are coming up for Christmas/New Year! ^^
And it shall be amazing!
I'm so glad for the Christmas season be here. It's always such a great, hopeful, joyful time for me. And, like all breaks from school/holidays a good time for reflection, writing, reading, talking, etc.
I do that anyway, but I have more time now.
And now, for some really irrelevant/relevant? musings of stuffs.
Numero uno, Leanne and I talk on the phone 24/7. I've been neglecting a lot of my other friends lately... :'( And the internet. Especially my internet friends. Which is bad. And I shouldn't do that.
But the phone-roleplay (which started out as a parody of our characters out of various roleplays I've joined/mainly "In Their Eyes" on AvatarSpirit.net) we do now really has me thinking.
I've always got dark, messed-up characters, with messed-up lives, and messed-up everything else. Plus, I'm a Christian (and YES, this has to do with something, it has to do with EVERYTHING) and they don't follow my own moral standards. I've been a pretty darkish person since around two years ago or longer, a little confused, a littl culture-shocked because I was either sheltered or 100% obliviously and happily naiive up until around fifth grade.
Probably a little bit of both. But when my parents decided to let me be a little less sheltered, I guess I just kept being blissfully ignorant/oblvious/naiive on my own.
Psh, they still think they shelter me.
But, I ruin that kind of effort. And they appreciate my deeper thoughts on things as a teenager, even when they may not agree, or have the same thoughts. They're my parents. I think they're glad I talk to them. If I talk to my mom, then she's mostly listening because I often talk to her after a couple cups of coffee in the morning after an entire week of school and I'm dancing and jumping off of kitchen chairs while ranting about "political issues" and friends and a whole bunch of other things and writing... etc...
But, back on topic.
So I'm dark. And I can take all the dark stuff. I read so many "problem novels" now, it's not even funny. I'm just too serious sometimes! My sense of humor is pretty harsh sometimes.
But I used to do this kind of writing/reading/talking because:
1. I was utterly depressing/depressed? in sixth grade
2. Due to this, I made my poor depressing already Mary-Sue'd character Kim become my emo self and do the morbid crud I couldn't get my own self to do
3. Later on, I read/wrote this kind of stuff to understand real troubled people without asking troubled people I know, or experiencing it myself (psych-preparation; YA fiction is how I RESEARCH[ED?])
4. Now I just don't know why. Might still be the research. And maybe for the sake of experiencing.
But here's what I know. As I keep on doing this, things just don't manage to phase anymore. Like my friend's "legal murder" comment on abortion, just the matter-of-fact voice of hers in that comment, just how unattached it was, like there was nothing to be done, nothing to be said, just a horrible fact-of-life, without the emotion, that's just how everything's starting to become for me.
What I realize is that there are REAL people who live this way. Who do what Leanne's and my characters do. Who have gone through the things we put them through. The people who live those miserable lives and keeping going through their vicious cycles until they conciously try to stop and move on and change their life, escape their circumstances and start over, do NOT have the luxury of acting it out, of pretending, the luxury of saying on the phone or Personal Messaging saying to "take a break" from it, or to press that fake rewind button when things get too intense for the writer/speaker's sake.
I know it was wrong for me to WISH for misfortune for myself for the sake of empathy, to truly understand a person's pain. But it's better than continuing drama for the sake of continuing it. It's like a real person's miserable life is just a petty thing to play with to a person who has a relatively decent life. Melody Carlson, Jodi Picoult, what is with these women? Why do they write what they write? Why do I write what I write? How do I keep doing that?
I want to be more aware. And I want to understand. But I don't want to have a terrible life, even if it means it would be more inspiring, at least in my own opinion, if I overcame it.
My dad is a perfect example.
Problem is, he's STILL overcoming. He's nearing fifty years old, and things that happened all the way back in his childhood, in his teenage years, STILL are with him, even as he overcomes. He has Christ in his life, and being a follower of the Lord does NOT make your life easier. It makes it easier to bear and shows you the higher meaning of WHY you were put on earth, WHY you go through what you do. It shows you that you were put here to accomplish something beautiful, to show the hope you received in HIM to others. You do not turn on a light and hide it underneath a bowl. You show it to others.
That is why is Christmas is beautiful too.
I always had a recovery story for my character locked up in my head if they ever got that far into a story or a roleplay. They just keep stumbling and falling and crawling, and trying to go through life on their own. Therefore, they keep falling. None of them know how to deal with their life. They're angry, they're hurting, and they just don't understand. This is a terrible stereotype, I suppose for people who actually do that. I don't know. I just don't believe you can ever fully understand your life unless you come to the Lord. But that's not what everyone believes, though. And I understand that, but that's what the Bible says, though, and I wholeheartedly believe all of it. I will admit, I don't agree with everything the Old Testament says, ("eye for an eye, rapist should marry victim, lots of incest... o.eee") but even the New Testament clears up some of the Old Testament, through Jesus's teachings, especially in Matthew. Pretty sick stuff in the Old Testament. I believe all of Creation, though. (The incest thing gets cleared up when more people get born, because... I suppose all that stuff happened because there was like, no one on earth yet. And Adam and Eve--NOT MADE RELATED.)
Off topic once again...
Like Melody Carlson, one of my new favorite authors, who, like myself, has her own overuse of topics, her own set of stereotypes due to her overuse of topics, I believe life was not meant to be perfect. Sure, there was the fall of the world. But God gave us free will. And that meant risking His people to become tempted by His enemies, and then choose to sin against him. But He didn't want robots to worship Him. He wanted the people to do so WILLINGLY. He brings us closer through even tragedy, turns evil into good. Nothing is a coincidence. Nothing that happens wasn't meant to happen. When we're made, God already knows whether or not we're going to choose Him over the world by the time we've reached the end of our lives. God knows EVERYTHING.
And so the road bumps in our lives can just shoot us right up to Him. Or, they can make us go bitter and angry and hurt and stay in our miserable life-cycles.
When I think about it, my dad's life has probably fascinated me for so long that it makes me put these sorts of things into my writing, and my reading. When I say "I don't wanna ask troubled people/people who have gone through the terrible stuff I think about too much", I realize after a few moments, my dad's probably been through it all. He really inspires me. He's still not always consistent, but I know he's clinging to the cross, and I know he's truly trying to change. And he's human. It's beautiful.
I love my mom too, and she's a very wise, kind of traditional sometimes, but open woman. My parents are great.
I just hope my brother doesn't go through the culture shock I went through, though I think he's past that now. I think he's already developing those kinds of "worldly" problems, probably influenced by me, my music, my talking on the phone, his little internet games... turning into a full-fledged dork, but he's so smart, funny, but so boy-ish! I just hope he learns to understand what's truly important. My brother and my mom have always had a really close relationship, and my dad and him can always watch TV, comedy shows, play games and stuff together.
This Christmas, I'm really grateful for saving Grace, for my family, and my friends who put up with me all the time.
Love you all! Have a very Happy Holiday and Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!
Sincerely,
Aly

^Internet friend, Lizzie/Elle
One other thing:
More characters! <3
Tasha- Kim's close friend who lives on the east coast and one she's never met physically... well you know, the internet's a pretty amazering place. She's moved around a lot, she's Kim's RPing partner online on the roleplay they're obsessed with writing. She's an awesome writer, and an awesome artist, and loves anime/manga.
Brooke- Kim's friend since 3rd grade. Goes to her school, and is in three of her core classes in the morning now. She has a boyfriend currently, his name being Darren.
Kyley, Bella, Alana, Merri, Terra, Mindy, Corrie- A group of girls that Kim had wanted to hang out with for years, and finally accomplishes in her seventh grade year. They've always had similar interests and she's always longed to hang out with these people for their personalities and overall funtasticalness. Kim enjoys hanging out and talking to them all.
Allen- Kyley's boyfriend. Most of her friends don't know why she goes out with him, but they've been together a pretty long time for their age... and for a lot of other people's ages.
Arisa (Let's call her... Reese.)- Another one of Kim's awesome new friends from Rose's school. She rox sox. She's rather tomboyish on the outside, and is close friends with Ella, Kris, and Jones. ( she es Miss Awesomeness on Ella's blog)
Jones- Jones is the one other dude from Rose, Kris, Mark, Ella, and Reese's school that Kim recently made acquaintance to at a certain Target Starbucks on a certain Friday while drinking some certain Frappichinos and loudly socializing with a wide variety of somewhat innappropriate inside jokes... He is funny, loves bands like Cake, and Weezer, and has a surprising knowledge of he politcal candidates in the '08 run. (J.R. on Ella's blog)
David- Kim's younger brother. He's 10 and "knows" too much for his age... hmm, I wonder who's fault that is... ^^'
And that's about it for today in characters.
UGGHHHHH. None of my RP friends are on and I es booooooooooooooored. *headdesk* Well, <3 all you people!
Don't forget God loves you no matter what happens in your life! THERE IS A LIGHT AT THE END OF ALL TUNNELS.

not-yet-titled Story 'Introduction' to the Characters
AN (Author's Note): I decided that I would write a story based on events that occured between now and January... related to a certain guy I 'went out with' for nearly 6 months. Nothing absolutely horrible occured between us, nothing absolutely incredibly amazing, and nothing all too dull either. This is only BASED on the situation, though... eh, I'm the author, I have the creative liscense to do whatever I want with it. Yet, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna stick to mostly 'facts'...
Main Characters
*names have been changed; and are subject to change again...
Kimberlee (Kim, Kimi, etc.)- Main protagonist; goes to a youth retreat, comes home with a boyfriend. She lives in a town near the church, and attends school in her 4000 poplation town, with a k-12 school.
Rose- Kim's best friend who attends the trip with her and is totally amazing. She is insightful, brilliant, and is somewhat obsessed with vampires. She goes to Kim's church, and goes to a school in that city.
Jared- A boy from school Kim used to 'go out with'; one of her closest guy friends. His feelings for Kim haven't changed much since they 'broke up'
Marcus (Mark)- 'Hot emo guy', was the name Rose and Kim once gave him, back when he was just some kid who was a year older than them that went to their church, and Rose's school, was rather quiet, and had awesome hair. Weelll... until Kim went out with him that is.
Kristen (Kris)- Another one of Kim's close friends who goes to Rose's school. A bit of a tomboy and would rather like to avoid guys, due to her having 3 brothers, one 2 years younger than her, one a sophomore in high school, one a freshman in college who visits occasionally. Has a 'deep hatred' for a guy named Larson at her school... mwahaha.
Marsella (Ella)- Another good friend of Kim's who goes to the school of Kris, Mark, and Rose. Once a self-proclaimed 'emo without the cutting', whom still quite enjoys Hot Topic and disliking preps highly. She love writing and reading fanfiction and listening to music. (Kim and Kris introduced her to Linkin Park... once into that, you can't get out. ) Despite the fact that Kris is Ella's best friend... she is currently crushing on Larson.
