So... as everyone who is still reading-thank you, by the way, for bearing with me under the circumstances-is most likely aware, my laptop got sat on a couple months ago. I'm still really upset about this and have not gotten the money back nor a replacing computer.
As such I am now MONTHS behind my writing schedule, which is awful. I haven't been able to actively work on novels and I've only really gotten back into my worldbuilding in the last week or so-losing the computer was not only a blow to my writing in that I then had no computer, but also in that I kind of lost my willpower for a month or two as far as my writing is concerned.
I've also been couch surfing but have decided, for the sake of my sanity, to return to living with my grandmother. I'll be spending more nights out now than I did when I previously lived here because I'm taking care of my homeless BF (she can't take him in, doesn't have the space or the money to look after both of us).
HOWEVER, the good news is that I can safely say I'll be able to post at least twice a week now. I'm also back to work on my world for Jihad, working away on the religious stuff... I'm almost finished with the basic information on all the religious orders. By next week I'll be writing actual myths and history and stuffs. I can't wait.
Though what I can do as far as writing is concerned at this point is severely limited, until I get a new computer, I'm doing what I can-worldbuilding, idea storming and poetry. I can't do anything else by hand because it hurts my wrist too much.
This is just a temporary obstacle. By November, I'll have a new laptop, no matter what I have to do to get one, and I'll be back writing in full force-after all, I can't fail my word war team.
Just letting you guys know generally what's going on. I'll probably post a poem throughout the night, and I'll definitely post something quickly tomorrow night as well.
Thanks for reading,

Glad to see you're still around. I'll get the comp replaced and things will get better... it's just a matter of when.

I just can't help being honest, I'm addicted to it. Your life will turn around soon, if you just give it a chance.

To be honest: the guy I was with treated me like absolute gold when I was with him. He was wonderful to me; he did more for me in two months than my mother has in her entire life.
He changed though, and he's become a real jerk. And it's not just me that sees it-he's not as nasty to everyone else, but he's cold and withdrawn to all of our mutual friends. He changed in the last week of our relationship and has only gotten worse.
My life might turn around. I'm hoping it will once I'm sixteen and have, you know, rights. (Because until then I'm not even CLOSE to a person, I'm a possession; when I'm sixteen I become half a person. According to the law that is.)
It's just really really hard. I've found someone else and he's going through a lot. He's really sick and he's homeless. He's a great guy-we were friends for a while before we got together-and I wish I could help him more than I can. I feel helpless as far as his situation is concerned. And it's killing me because if something doesn't change for him soon, with his physical condition, he will die.
And then there's this not having a computer thing; I can't even really retreat into the world of writing anymore. I can't do the one thing I really love, the one thing I'm really good at, except for in very limited spurts because of my wrist and not having a computer.
Things just aren't going well right now, but I'm determined to at least have a computer by November.

I sort of give up on positivity. I believe in reality: life sucks, there's good stuff every once in a while, but life sucks.

You've a lot going for you, don't lose it trying to get off the ground so fast, just think in five years time you'll be almost 21 and that is still a baby, but the next 5 years can make or break you, just enjoy your writing no matter how little you do, commune with nature, go for walks alone in safe places, stop and smell the roses, look up and marvel at the treetops, at the skyline, at the quaint roofs of houses, at little attics, at amazing chimney pots, life is all around you and those things cost nothing but bring great rewards.
Appreciate your grandmother and rest assured she's as worried about you and cares for you even more than I do, but she just may not know what to do.
Read Charles Dickens and be glad you have a roof over your head, a clean bed, food and a lot of people really do care about you.
It is so hard to know what to do for them with you in your circumstances, but the young men have nothing to offer you. Just be patient and forget them for a few years.

I've got the mother bear complex. I look after people. And he's been wonderful to me. We've been friends for a while and he was the first person to come to my rescue after the other person broke up with me. I really do care for him; I'll do whatever I can.
I've found places for him to stay most nights, I just wish I could find somewhere for him to stay until I'm sixteen. When I turn sixteen and my best friend turns 18 a month later we're getting a place together, and my boyfriend can stay with us there-permanently-it's just waiting out those few months that's hard.
I grew up REALLY fast after Daddy died. It'll be four years soon. Four years... time flies. I know I'm young and I don't need these burdens but I take them willingly; though they cause me pain and stress I wouldn't change it for the world. If Daddy was alive everything would be different, but he's not.
My little brother, my best friend in the whole wide world, when I met him he was in pretty much the same position. I looked after him for months until he found a place to stay until he's eighteen. (He's older, but I call him my little brother 'cause I look after him.)
Though I did things for that boy I wish I'd never had to do, I did them and I don't regret them because I saved his life. I feel the same way about this one-only he's my boyfriend, not my little brother. I'm staying here, I have a place to sleep and to eat and I'm trying to keep my boyfriend indoors as well.
I know you care Katyzzz and I'm grateful that I joined this site for two people if nothing else-you and Kleo have been wonderful friends since I came here and I wouldn't change that for the world either.
