Dear all,
I think I'll start posts like this from now, except of course for the reviews. Anyway, hi, as the title of this post suggests, I was suddenly inspired to do something, and now have this overwhelming urge to finish what I started.
Ok, so for the past few months, I've been playing a lot of games League of Legends (awesome game by the way), Nancy Drew PC games (by Her Interactive) and other random games. But I have been most inspired by Nancy. How many of you readers have ever read the book, I remember I used to collect her books, they were amazing, I always had aspired to be somewhat like Nancy.
I am digressing, where was I, oh yes, well. I was inspired by the Nancy Drew games so much, that I have decided to write a script based on one of her adventures, in the games. Of course, it won't be exactly the same, because, that would be plagiarism, so I'm writing it using completely different characters, and using a different setting. Hopefully it won't be too similar.
So the purpose of this post is to warn you about the lack of any in the future, I will be a bit busy writing this script and playing games, as well as finding a job, going to uni, and rejoining the youth team (hopefully) but when I can, I will, and I'll probably have lots to say.
So for now, it's good bye, and enjoy the older posts here. And as always, please comment to let me know I'm doing a good job, or if you have any criticisms. But peace out, and God Bless. ^^

A Revelation From Doctor Who
I have just recently watched a panel for the Doctor Who cast and crew, about the 50th anniversary, and I really love this quote "Heroes are important. Heroes tell us something about ourselves. History books tell us who we used to be, documentaries tell us who we are now but heroes tell us who we want to be."
Not only that but I think Moffat was right when he says, "Heroes depress me, but with this particular hero, they didn't give him a gun, they gave him a screwdriver to fix things. They didn't give him a tank or a warship or an X-wing fighter, they gave him a call box, from which you can call for help. And they didn't give him a superpower, or pointy ears or a heat ray, they gave him an extra heart."
So I thought I'd share this with everyone because, from Doctor Who, I learned that everyone needs a hero, although sometimes the heroes we want aren't the heroes we need, and truth be told, the Doctor, is my hero. Not because he has companions who I wish I were (even though I do), but because as Steven Moffat implies, he's a hero who wants to save, not to fight.
Think about it, the tenth doctor, played by David Tennant, offers his enemies a home to live in, he gives them the choice to live peacefully, for example in the Christmas Special The Next Doctor, as the cyber-men try to take over Victorian London, he offers them to find a planet, one where they can live their "mechanical lives in peace", or the eleventh doctor, played by Matt Smith, offers the Rosanna and her family to find a new home for them, so as not to destroy Earth, or even in the 50th anniversary special, even though there were three, and each one was seriously thinking of destroying Gallifrey, he still finds a way to save his home planet.
It is because of his love of life that I see him as my hero, he doesn't care about who he saves, even if it's his enemies, he still wants to save them, even though it means they end up dying. So, that's why I love Doctor Who, and I hope for those of you out there, who don't really care for it, who think it's just another boring TV show that only nerds and geeks watch, this is the reason we watch it. It's because the Doctor teaches us that even though we "are still learning to walk" we have so much potential, we have a lot to learn about ourselves and we all have the capability to be great.
I'm not trying to persuade you to watch it, I know it may not be your thing, but if you do ever encounter someone who does love it, don't put them down, don't make them feel inferior, just because they watch a sci-fi drama, understand that they watch it because it gives them hope, hope of a future that they may yet have, hope that they can be as great as the doctor, or his companions. And for those of you who have seen it and love it as much as I do, I recommend watching this panel (the link below), I guarantee you, it will teach you a lot about the doctor, it's where I found my two quotes. Finally for those of you who do want to watch it, but have not yet seen it, I do recommend it, it's character, as a show is what makes it great, and if you do, welcome to the family.

I've Given Up Hope
Well, from a great and inspiring post, we have a depressing one. I'm sorry, but it seems my mood swings have taken a turn for the worst. Although I said that my melancholy had worn off, that was a temporary thing. Turns out, it goes much deeper than I had anticipated.
Yes, I am still mourning the fact that I am single, but don't get me wrong. I don't mind it. But when I am with others, and I look at their Facebook pages, and any news I get about them, I tend to find them all in a relationship. In the end I find myself wondering why I have never been able to catch a break. And even though I have told others time and again, that I have never, NEVER, had a boyfriend they don't believe me, and that hurts me more than anything.
While it's a compliment, it is still a reminder that I have never had anyone to fall in love with, or even anyone who fell in love with me. Granted I've been in an all girls Catholic school, and I have had very little encounters with men. However, through the internet, and other media platforms, I experience relationships indirectly, and continue to dream of the perfect man. Of course there's no such thing, but that doesn't mean that my perfect man is perfect either. Like I said, I want the Goblin King in my life. But I know that's never going to happen.
Today, I met with an old friend (a boy by the way), who used to go to my primary school. We had fun, just hanging out, as friends. Don't get me wrong, I liked it, we just hang out, talking about the past, how we were today, and what has been going on in our lives. But, as we were talking, I was very aware of the fact that he had already had a few girlfriends in his past, whilst I had no boyfriend, not even one. And that thought brought me down to my lowest. At the time, I didn't want to say anything, and I just wanted to focus on having fun, reminiscing with him. But now that I'm alone, I have had time to dwell on the subject, and I truly feel alone.
It is true, what they say, "those with the brightest smile, are the most hurt." While I admit I do like my smile, and I do get complimented because of it, I understand this saying. I truly am hurt, while the injuries have been inflicted on me indirectly, I am hurt. By this, I mean watching relationships build up and break down, and still being on the fringes of them.
Like I said, I have never been in a relationship, but I have seen them, and have been the comforter, but I cannot be the strength of my friends, when I myself have not experienced the hardship of a break-up. The same can be said for my friendship with others.
I do have friends, but I still feel distant to them. I thought that in university I would have friends that would constantly ask me to go out with them, but that hasn't been the case. The reason being is that I live at home, and nearly everyone lives in accommodation. The fact that I'm completely out of the loop, in terms of this tradition, is what hurts me most. I cannot fully take part in their lives, and that cuts me deeply, as deeply as the fact that I have never had someone to love (in that way).
Now you can understand why I don't have anymore confidence in myself. I know I should not be dwelling on these thoughts, and emotions, and that I should get over myself and move on, but I have been told to do that many times, and I have been doing that for pretty much most of my life, but my mind will always go here and it will never stop, until I truly feel loved.
I know some of you will tell me that it's not worth it, having a relationship, but I will never know until I actually have had one. And even if you describe it to me, I will never understand, and fully agree with you, because I have never been directly hurt as bad as you. And although you may say ignorance is bliss, there is another saying which is constant in my case, "the better the devil you know, than the devil you don't." I'd rather experience the hurt and pain of heartbreak, rather than dream about it, and never have had it.
I will leave this post here for now, and give it to you, to do as you wish, as always. And my last request is for your prayers, that one day I may be able to pick myself up and dust myself off, and move on. And I do pray that God bless you, and keep you close to Him, as he does to me. I may not feel his presence sometimes, but I do know he is always there helping me, even in my darkest hours.
