IMPORTANT:

It's been a few years. All of my files for my works are gone. My list of people I owed oneshots to, my fics, my original short stories, EVERYTHING is gone. I have a newer laptop now, and wanted to get back into writing, so I decided to transfer my stuff from my old laptop to my new one, only to find that all my written works on my old laptop are gone. Anything I didn't publish (meaning any fanfics, with the exception of the chapters I had begun but hadn't finished for said fics) are gone. I had original short stories I was writing or had written and they're gone forever now. I'm really upset about it.

I know it's been a couple years since I last updated something. Writer's Block is the major issue. I've written very little of ANYTHING since I last updated. I know I swore never to abandon ReWind and ReDo, but I might. It's been a couple years, I don't like how I was writing them all that much, I'm not completely sure how to end them, and my writing isn't where I'd like it to be right now. I may end up deleting them. Might give up on the oneshots, too, since the file I had made explaining what each one was supposed to be about and for who is gone, and that was really hard to compile over time.

But I do want to start a new fic. I don't know when I'll start posting it, but soon I want to start writing another Naruto fic. Not quite a time travel fic, but I want to write a story that deviates from canon Shippuden. I want Sakura, and therefore original Team 7 to find out about the Uchiha Massacre, realize that if Sasuke finds out on his own that he wouldn't come home, and instead of dealing with the BS they went through in canon, try to reach Sasuke around the beginning of Shippuden and tell him and persuade him to seek justice in a more healthy way and come home. Not sure how exactly that's all going to happen, but I want it to. Hopefully, I'll start writing it soon (but I won't post until I have a decent headway). I'll update you guys as it progresses.

Later.

If you wanna geek out about anime, manga or books, PM me. (Pointer: I mention most of the anime/manga/books I have seen/read down this profile. Just ask.)

About Me:

I'm a human, female, Sagittarius who's African-American with hair that will not grow. I have a twin sister, too.

Some things about me:

THE NARUTARD SURVEY: NARUTARDS UNITE!

1. Who is your favorite Naruto character(s)? Sasuke, Itachi, Shikamaru...
2. What is your favorite pairing(s)? SasuSaku, GaaMatsu, NejiTen, ShikaTema, NaruHina, SaIno...
3. Are you a Naruto yaoi or hentai fan? Not much of a yaoi fan, but I see the appeal. And no.
4. Ever cosplayed Naruto characters? If so, who, where and how many times? I don't own anything to cosplay with. I could possibly only pull of Shino, Karui, the Raikage's assistant, or something like that. Having dark (not really dark) skin has its cons, you know.
5. List your collection of Naruto junk and merchandise, if any: A few posters and the latest Character Data Book (manga only) and like, the first one. I want more, like a Gaara or Itachi plushie or something.
6. Have you ever felt that you were destined to be with a Naruto character? No, but I do love quite a few.
7. NaruHina or KibaHina? I see Kiba and Hinata becoming friends or sibling-like or even Kiba having a one-sided love for Hinata far sooner than that love ever being requited. Even though Naruto may never move on past Sakura, he has at least has acknowledged Hinata feelings for him. He knows. I just wish he'd move on and give her a chance, because he's not only hurting himself by continuing to love Sakura, but he's also hurting people who care about him because they see him in pain, he's hurting Hinata, and Sakura feels guilty that she can't return his feelings. And he told Sakura he doesn't want her if she doesn't love him, and they both know it won't happen, whether they want it to or not.
8. SasuSaku or SasuNaru? SasuSaku; I sincerely love that couple, canon or no. It's unlikely that Sasuke will fall in love with anyone, but Sakura at least loves him, despite it being obviously requited. Heck, every character that's alive is suffering unrequited love or love with someone who's dead in Naruto. It sucks.
9. Which team(s) is your favorite? Dunno. The Sannin? The Sand Sibs?
10. Do you support the Obito theory (Tobi=Obito)? At first I didn't, because I felt that the Obito that was shown to us would never do such a thing in a right and clear state of mind. But it turns out he was Obito and Obito wasn't in a right, clear state of mind. He was stricken with grief and became obsessed.
11. Do you support the 'Yondaime is Naruto's father' theory? What theory"?
12. Your favorite Akatsuki member? Itachi. Then, Sasuke if he counts.
13. Are you Pro-Sasuke or Anti-Sasuke? Pro. I'll always love Sasuke. Even if he acts like the biggest arrogant asshole in the universe, I will always love him. Even when he was crazy in Iron, I loved him. I just do. I adore his unique character.
14. Have you seen all Naruto episodes so far (including Shippuden and fillers)? Up til that one filler when Naruto, Gai, Yamato, and Aoba were on their way to that one place where Bee was going to train Naruto. That ridiculously long filler arc was the last straw. Before then, I watched nearly every episode. But since, I've been caught up with the manga.
15. Have you read all the chapters so far? Since aforementioned filler arc.
16. Do you believe Naruto has ADD? I'll joke about it, but I don't seriously believe it.
17. Sub or dub? Sub, I guess; it sounds better. Also, it backs more of an...impact. It's more emotional to me that way. And awesomer. But, if I can, I often watch dub first for an anime if it has a dub, unless it's absolutely terrible. Then I go to sub. Then the manga or read it before, after or at the same time as the anime. But the FMAB dub was phenomenal... the best I've heard so far.
18. Pro-Sakura or Anti-Sakura? Pro. Even though Sakura kinda ticked me off sometimes in Part I, I always liked her. And I feel sorry for her; pretty much any chance she has to prove herself, she's cut off. Either knocked out, has to leave for some reason, or SOMETHING. OR, she's always healing, not fighting. If she is, most of the time, it's short. She doesn't have many long fight scenes. Much less when it's 1 vs 1. (Has she ever had a long 1 vs. 1 fight except for the movies, Sasori, and Ino?) A little support wouldn't hurt, Kishimoto. Honestly; people would like her more if she got more character development!
19. Tobi = Annoying or funny? The non-evil persona: HILARIOUS. I LOVE his non-evil persona ("Good Boy"). Evil persona? Ticked me off. Real self? Felt bad for him, but he still kinda ticked me off.
20. Do you even know who Tobi is? You can read, can't you? Go up to earlier responses.
21. Gai = Sexy beast or Ugly nerd? Neither. Although I'll have to lean toward the former during that time in the where Naruto is heading to Cloud on the damned boat. His slicked back hair and six pack (Minus the pink speedo with yellow flowers, if I'm correct. Never wear that again, Gai) make him look pretty decent. Almost good.
22. Which character would be the best cross dresser? Amaru (is a girl), Sasame (girl), Sora (boy), Neji (boy)...
23. Rock Lee = Weird or Awesome? Awesome, but also weird, but in a good way. Can't help but love him. Especially in Rock Lee's Springtime of Youth.(Hilarious manga. I lost so much faith in Neji. But oh well, he had to have snapped sometime, he can't stay sane forever. Wonder if Tenten will snap?)
24. Which character would be best OOC? Neji.(he's pretty OOC in the Rock Lee manga). Hinata. Shino. Sasuke. Naruto.
25. Do you like Naruto fanfics? Obviously.
26. Do you write Naruto fanfics? I dunno. Scroll down and see for yourself. Maybe click something and read it...
27. Do you like lemons? Maybe.
28. Do your parents know about the Naruto characters? They couldn't care less about anime or manga, really, so no.
29. Have you watched the Naruto Abridged Series? Depends on what you mean by that.
30. Have you seen The Naruto Ultimate Fanflashes? A few.
31. Have you ever gotten someone else hooked on Naruto? Sis, and my friend, Emily. She oddly enough she started Naruto for the first time.
32. Have you ever been drawing Naruto in school and has someone recognized it? No. I suck at drawing.
33. Have you ever been in class drawing Naruto and the teacher came up to you and said 'WTF is this?'? I'd be more careful than that.
34. Has Naruto affected your school life and grades? Not really, just a small change.
35. Are you broke thanks to Naruto? Nope.
36. Do you want to read Icha Icha Paradise? ... No, it sounds like it's actually bad.
37. Do you support the 'Yondaime is the Akatsuki Leader' theory? I can't even believe that was a legitimate theory in the fandom.
38. Do you draw Naruto fan art? Like I said before, I suck at drawing.
39. Is Sasuke still sexy in his second stage of the cursed seal? I think he's sexy enough on his own.
40. Do you have a Naruto OC? No.
41. Looking back at some of your answers, do you think Naruto has taken over your life? Yes. Though I don't rank it as the #1 series, because to me it isn't, I have a sincere and deep love for it stronger than I have for maybe any other series I've read/watched/whatever.

I didn’t…

I didn’t let her go so you could hurt her.
I didn’t let her go so you could play with her.
I didn’t let her go so you could fool with her.

I let her go because she asked me to.

I didn’t give her to you so you could make her cry.
I didn’t give her to you so you could make her suffer.
I didn’t give her to you so you could make her bleed.

I gave her to you because you wanted her.

(I'd appreciate it if it was passed on. I don't know how this feels personally but I grasp the pain from this poem.

Off-handed, but when ever I read this, I hear Naruto saying this to Sasuke about Sakura. That is, if Sasuke would have wanted Sakura but hurt her, and Naruto gave up on her.)

Love vs. Sex

A teenage girl about 17 had gone to visit some friends one evening and time passed quickly as each shared their various experiences of the past year.
She ended up staying longer than planned, and had to walk home alone.
She wasn't afraid because it was a small town and she lived only a few blocks away.
As she walked along under the tall elm trees, Diane asked God to keep her safe from harm and danger.
When she reached the alley, which was a short cut to her house, she decided to take it.
However, halfway down the alley she noticed a man standing at the end as though he were waiting for her.
She became uneasy and began to pray, asking for God's protection.
Instantly a comforting feeling of quietness and security wrapped round her, she felt as though someone was walking with her.
When she reached the end of the alley, she walked right past the man and arrived home safely.
The following day, she read in the newspaper that a young girl had been raped in the same alley just twenty minutes after she had been there.
Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and the fact that it could have been her, she began to weep.
Thanking the Lord for her safety and to help this young woman, she decided to go to the police station.
She felt she could recognize the man, so she told them her story.
The police asked her if she would be willing to look at a lineup to see if she could identify him.
She agreed and immediately pointed out the man she had seen in the alley the night before.
When the man was told he had been identified, he immediately broke down and confessed.
The officer thanked Diane for her bravery and asked if there was anything they could do for her.
She asked if they would ask the man one question.
Diane was curious as to why he had not attacked her.
When the policeman asked him, he answered, "Because she wasn't alone.
She had two tall men walking on either side of her."

Amazingly, whether you believe or not, you're never alone. Did you know that 98 of teenagers will not stand up for God?

Repost this as Love vs. Sex if you truly believe in God..

PS: God is always there in your heart and loves you no matter what...and if you stand up for him he will stand up for you.
I bet 93% of you people that read this won't re-post it.

Quotes:

"You don't have to forgive me...No matter what you decide to do from now on...I will always love you."-Itachi Uchiha to Sasuke Uchiha, chapter 590.

"'Why are we so oblivious to our own love?' 'Maybe it's just nature's way of laughing at our stupidity.'" - This is like if it's requited or not, or whether or not we love someone. This was my twin sis and I. No, we haven't actually fallen in love ourselves, but this is more of an observation of history, fantasy, and the like. Everything.

"A woman should not attack another woman's unhealed wounds. That is taboo."-Yuzu, from the manga Bitter Virgin. It's a mature manga about a guy who fell in love with a girl who had been abused raped and impregnated twice by her step-father.

"Someone show me a law that says guys and girls can't just be friends. [Seriously.]"- me. I'm a 100% serious, people.

"It's troublesome, but when I do things I do them properly." - Shikamaru Nara, from Naruto. I try.

"These are my classmates? Fuck my life..." - Kakashi Hatake, 13 year old, in reference to Gai and Obito in ch. 666

"I am not afraid to keep on livin', I am not afraid to walk this world alone."- "Famous Last Words" by My Chemical Romance.

"It's impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious."- Murphy's Laws.

"Sometimes, it's okay to be selfish."- no idea.

"Ignore him. Stupidity is contagious." - Gray Fullbuster, Fairy Tail, to Juvia about Lyon/Leon. I died of laughter when I read that part in the manga.

"Apparently being alive is not enough for the government that someone has gotten it very wrong." - Brian Williams, NBC News anchor, about Jerry Miller, a veteran declared dead 4 times by the Department of Veteran Affairs for God-knows-why. No, he hasn't been in a life-or-death event, so that can't be it. This started in 2010 (this broadcast was in 2012). 4 times? This has to be deliberate, at this point. It's just too ridiculous for such a huge government department. Or maybe it isn't.

"There's every type of person." - Me.

"Everyone is _. Just some more obviously than others." - Me, and here's an example of what I mean by this: "Everyone is idiotic, just some more obviously than others."

"It's not that if you become Hokage everyone will acknowledge you, it is the ones who are acknowledged that can become Hokage."- Itachi Uchiha. You are amazing Itachi.

"If you don't respect history, you're doomed to repeat it."-I have no idea. (I first heard that from Robin, from One Piece years ago. It applies everywhere. Like in Sasuke, Orochimaru, and Pain are perfect examples.)

"Thank God men cannot fly, and lay waste the sky as well as the earth." -Henry David Thoreau.

"We read books to find out who we are. What other people, real or imaginary, do and think and feel is an essential guide to our own understanding of what we ourselves are and may become." -Ursula LeGuin.

"Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people." -Eleanor Roosevelt.

"Life is the Song, Love is the Lyrics."

"One day I found myself smiling for no reason, then I realize I was thinkin' of you."

"What lies behind us, and what lies before us, are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."

"The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart."

"For anyone of us our forever could end in an hour, or a hundred years from now. You never know for sure so you better make every second count."

"Apologies come in all shapes and sizes. You can give diamonds, candy, a flower, or just your deepest heartfelt sentiment. Never before, though, had I gotten a pencil that smelled like syrup. But I had to admit, it worked."

"Smile, Beautiful, the sun shines just for you."

"You should be a pessimist- you're either right or pleasantly surprised."-Anonymous. Don't follow this folks - I just like the quote. People should be optimistic, I don't want to seem like a bad role model or anything. We also already have enough pessimists in this world.
