Well there isn't much to do at this point besides maybe mop up my tears. Urgh. I cry when I get frustrated; it's so stupid. I won't bore you all with my emo-ness, but I can't really seem to get up and work on more things for that whole Touhou 13.5 idea I was plotting with Michael. Part Three will come, sooner or later - although you all didn't really seem to like that very much; it got next to no hits. So maybe it won't come. SCII is still at 22% because Battle.net has the capabilities of a rock, as stated before, so nothing new on that front.
Maybe I should post some of my "stories"? Would you all like to hear them? (Yeah that'll go over like a freaking ton of bricks...Michael knows why at least.)
Trying to get a quality blog out here isn't the most easy thing especially when I'm feeling this torn up about...stuff. Too much stuff to write about and besides, I was told to keep it to myself anyway. I might be headed down into another one of my dark periods where I give up on doing anything with my life. Seeing as, well, there isn't that much I can do right. Huh. Hm. Maybe I can start my own Inori fan club? I think Michael and I would be the only members though. But I'm too careless and easily distracted to run a fan club, and Michael's too shy. There has to be someone else out there who likes Inori. Ne?
I didn't make it to work today because of family issues. (I'm a kid, I still live at home.) It's not so good. The house is pretty tense.
...Being called insane and being ignored hasn't helped much either. I think I need a pat on the head.
I I I I I I I. Nobody wants to hear about I. Er, that is, nobody wants to hear about ME. If you want to be grammatically correct, that is. Now I've used "that is" in two sentences in a row; that's not fluid writing. But what should I write about? Maybe this can be an open-blog. Tell me what you want to hear from me. ...Yeah, that works! -perks up a little- Tell me clearly what you want to hear; I don't have problems following directions as long as they're clear.
I think I feel a little better now. I hope I get lots of replies!! I can't wait to see what you all want me to write about!
Currently listening to: The Birthday Massacre - "The Dream" (My theme song! Or so I'd like to think.)

I think writing a quality blog is the probably easiest affair to do. It's a blank box, you can write anything significant or insignificant with no real direction to be needed.
Blogs are the opposite of how you are conceptualizing them. Blogs, although open for all to read, are meant to be for you. Yes, some people use their blogs to narrate their day, knowing someone would be interested, but don't be hesitant to write something only you understand, so long as it has some coherency.
Point being, start in one direction, if you stumble onto another small subject, write about it if you want. If you just want to write straight-forward on one subject, do it. Those who will want to read will read and those who will want to respond, will respond. Just because no one responds doesn't mean anyone read and just because someone one-stars it doesn't mean that everyone agrees with it.
Cool off, blow your nose and just write shit, anything, no one entirely cares so long as your effort is there and you are trying to convey a message, no matter how ambiguous it is.
Oh, no one is going to tell you what to write about. That would assume everyone is, by default, interested in you or who you are. Unfortunately and evidently, not everyone is, so it's your job to snag people's attentions. It's no different than a newspaper or a common article on the web. No one cares about the writer and no one cares about the particular newspaper when it first starts. It's when you produce good material or subjects that they can relate or enjoy, will they start taking a significant interest by default and perhaps give you direction in what you want to write.
Asking people what you should write is probably the most disappointing thing you'll ever encounter because guess what: no one knows how good you are in writing, expressing yourself or how interesting you can be.
edit: what's probably the most aggravating is your self-defeatist attitude. If you already give up or say: "meh, it probably won't go so well", no one will bother since you already told us the conclusion or your general standpoint. If you think it'll be pointless, why'd you do it and why should we read it knowing any continuation is particularly doomed.
Cheer up and just write. Haters will hate and with good reason: they don't have time to spare to bother enjoying and following-up on the subject, person or thing in particular. Let them, doesn't change how you enjoy certain things and it shouldn't.
This entire reply could be a blog in itself. haha~

It would be great to have an Inori fanclub!

The problem with this... is this little quote from Chill...
"The Blog section on TL isn't your personal webspace. There is still a requirement here to write something of value. If you want to write something personal on a whim, please register personal webspace on blogspot or similar."
....That was the problem that spawned this one...

And this one is the exact same thing: a little personal thing on a whim, devoid of any real substance besides self loathing because his two previous crap blogs got closed. It's a blog about thinking about what to blog about. Wooooooooooooooooooooo
in all honesty, you should stop posting on the internet if you start literally crying because you had two blogs closed in a row, and go find real help

Then you didn't read it in its entirety. Or you just didn't care to read it all at least. Or you just glazed over and merely skimmed. The entire part about an Inori fan-club? Well yeah, I would say that that's a fairly suitable thing for one.

Look at my blogs.
Look at how frivolous they are. Trivial to the bone about the dumbest shit in the world. They range from how to cook dumb eggs to "how are my teeth and how do I prepare for a root canal?". Have you seen Snet's? They're so short, but my God are they good!
I wrote a fucking blog entry about clouds, just clouds outside my window.
Shit, I wrote a blog about being banned for two days.
It's incredibly easy to write a blog entry, even a small blog entry. The conditions aren't exactly high standard or difficult, you just need to actually write something, not: "What should I write guys? I was going to do/write these things, but I don't they'd be too popular."
I think what Chill wrote is just condensed, not wrong. Blogs are a personal space, but that space doesn't mean you fill it up just air and directionless writing.

It's ok, i miss Dennis too. I never had the pleasure of getting to know him but i have an eighteen year old cat now and she's not entirely well so i can relate.
Don't think for a second that him biting you meant he loved you any less - he just got afraid some times and didn't know how to handle it.
We all carry our respective baggage and we are who we are because of it. Cheer up though, although i don't know what Inori is, i'm sure others do and will be happy to share your passion for it.
And don't forget Michael! I had no idea who he was either but i backtracked some blogs and based on what i read you seem to have found something very important in each other.
Finally - while it's true that your blog is your own, it doesn't necessarily have to act solely as an outlet. So since we're picking topics - i'd love to read some more about the cats, last update was a month ago. Any new arrivals or general stories from the meow-front?

Heh, yeah I agree with this. I also write about whatever the hell I feel like or whatever pops into my head first when I have free time. Seems to be going fine. = )

Yeah, that whole bit where he thinks about starting a fan club and decides against it within the span of three sentences is really something!

don't know what Inori is
I died a little inside.
Inori is Inori! He's the master of PvP!! He is AWESOME!

The entire purpose of that was to get the thought out in the open. If there was the ultimate capability of doing so, it would have been done already. BUT, a fan club is different even from blogs. It requires attention and detail, time and effort. As was stated couldn't be handled by him. And so it was giving the community an idea, and not simply saying I'm going to start this but ah...No I'm not".
Your only purpose here seems to be to cause anger and discontentment. You're quick to jump to the blogs being the source of the problems.
The house is pretty tense.
Might be a possible factor to why he's crying, no? What doesn't help are comments like yours, who only seem to attack here. Did you ever stop to think that Chill might have startled him, making him wonder if his blogs were breaking the rules? Underconfidence is a bitch. So what happens? You try to reach out. To find people who can at least take your mind off of it.
But instead, what happens? People like you attack and call his writing crap. Just saying it's crap doesn't do a damned thing either. Why do you bother? You don't have a say as to whether or not it gets removed. All you do is worsen the situation.

Okay, people are focusing on the "what should I write" part and not the actual subtext, where the OP is completely depressed because of his home life.
I grew up in a tough household too, and I can tell you from firsthand experience that you NEED a creative outlet to keep your sanity. So I say to you: use this blog space as your creative outlet. Channel bad feelings into something funny--just look at my J-Dubbz posts, for example: it's about me being controlled by forum nerds (read: God) with no control over anything, all wrapped up in humorous anecdotes.
I promise you that things do get better.
And if I'm completely off base then fuck me.

haha, sure. ^.^ *hug* Feel better! I was depressed for the past year and a half until I finally tasted freedom, and now I'm practically smiling all the time, without one worry, because once you live through the worst, nothing else can touch you. I guarantee it.
