My 1920's story is HERE.

To an author, a character is real. Their life their story their actions are as real as what anyone else does, the only diffrence is that what they do doesn't physically act on our world. It works in a diffrent world that again is just as real as ours.

1990's to Present: 
Lyrics Excerpt from Grandmaster Flash - The Message
Broken glass everywhere 
People pissing on the stairs, you know they just don't care 
I can't take the smell, I can't take the noise no more 
Got no money to move out, I guess I got no choice 
Rats in the front room, roaches in the back 
Junkies in the alley with the baseball bat 
I tried to get away, but I couldn't get far 
Cause a man with a tow-truck repossessed my car

Lyrics Excerpt from American Idiot
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda
Now everybody do the propaganda
Don't want to be an American idiot
One nation controlled by the media
Information age of hysteria

Today is Friday, yesterday was Thursday, tomorrow's going to be Saturday, after wards it's Sunday.
​I hate that song.
I'm drinking Mountain Dew.
Today we're going on a field trip to some water treatment plants, yay.
I'm actually really excited.

We're talking about some Mayor.
Interesting...

My roommate is coming down today! I'm so excited to meet her.
<3.

Okay bye(:
