New Post!!!

Whats new with me:

- School started and it's pretty epic.
- I made friends with this super cool new guy named Adam who is dating my friend Emily. And I may or    may not have a (slight) crush on him. Am I an awful person?

- I started Weight Lifting class with my friends Jessie and Morgan.

- I am in pain from said Weight Lifting class. It kills my muscles.

- There's this cold/sore throat thingy that's going around and I totally caught it. My throats on fire.

- I am in Applied Math but I'm also in Collage level English. Confused? So am I. The best part? I'm doing    freakishly well in both classes.

- I attempted to join a Role-Play site for Harry Potter (yeah, go a head and laugh) called Witherwings.com
They rejected me THREE times. Even after I did everything right. Here's my character application:

History
She was born to Charlotte Manings in Boston, Massachusetts and raised by only her till she was 7 years old, and Charlotte was mysteriously murdered. Carling was then left with only a picture of mother and her father and a rotting manor. It was then that she was left in the care of her Great-Aunt Bella Rose in Salem, Massachusetts. Bella Rose raised Carling and taughter her Divination and Seeing till Carling turned 11 and sent to Salem Witch Institute. It was in Carling's 6th year there that Bella Rose died and Carling's father tracked her down and moved her to live with him, his new wife and there 3 children in the U.K

Role-Play Sample:
(From Carling's past, Also a frequent nightmare of hers)
A seven year old Carling rubbed sleep from her eyes. She rolled out of her bed and walked into the small kitchen of her apartment. Her mother, Charlotte, was sitting at the kitchen table, staring off into space, her eyes glazed. One hand was clutching a coffee mug, and she was still dressed in her pjs and robe. Carling glanced at the clock. It was 11 a.m and a Tuesday. Carling had school! Why did her mother let her sleep in? Carling little, freckled face scrunched up in confustion and she walked foward and placed her hand on her mother's arm. It was cold. Carling frowned. Her tiny hand pulled her mother's sleeve but her mother was still staring off into space, at the same wall. Was she even blinking? Carling grasped her mother's arm with both her hands and tugged. Her mother slid off the seat a little. Carling didn't notice and tugged again. Charlotte fell out of the seat and onto Carling. "Eek!" the little girl shreeked as her mother fell on her. The auburn child struggled at first but then noticed something odd. Her mother was making no move to get off her. In fact her mother was moving at all. And she felt pretty cold. Carling stopped moving and lifted her ear to her mother's mouth, and placed her hands on Charlotte's chest. Carling stayed like that for a long moment, but no breath of air came, nor a single heart beat. Her eyes widened and she resumed struggling, tears flooded her eyes, and she let out the loudest scream she ever had.

Do you have a plan?
Yes

it's pretty good right? But apparently not good enough for Witherwings.com :( it made me sad. and pissed. So I posted one last thing:

Thank you so much to everyone who's looked over my application and helped clear up my mistakes! But I feel this role-play just isn't for me. Really, I liked the plot and the community is great but It's a pretty big role-play and creativity is pretty limited (example: I understand that being a Seer is rare but only 2 Seer's?! come on it's a role-play! It's not like your sticking the original plot! ) I'm not new to role-playing but I thought the guide-lines to creating characters was difficult to follow for someone just joining. The application's area for new-comers doesn't explain the plot or what kind of characters your looking for, and you never, ever meantioned anything about an abilities form on the applications. I understand that my applications were rejected but it still hurts that I had to get turned down THREE times. it's pretty frusterating.

So thanks again to those who tried to help me but I have trouble being just an ordinary character and still being involved in the plot.

So it was basically my polite way of making them feel like asses and me telling them "F*ck You"

They really pissed me off.
