Cicadavw's Journal

Hey everyone!  Yes, I've neglected Quizilla for quite some time now, but for good reason!  Some of you might already be aware of what I've been up to, but I'll go ahead and fill everyone else in.  I recently started working at a local hospital as a nurse in the ICU.  I LOVE IT!  It's definitely hard work, but I'm learning a lot.  Plus the paychecks are nothing to complain about!  So you can imagine what little time I have right now, that and the fact I'm taking an online course to become registered as a critical care nurse.  Hopefully within the next few months I will be able to save up enough money to buy my own house and get back on my feet again.  As much as I would LOVE to be writing on my stories, I just don't have the time right now.  I won't put that in stone though because I do get time off, and maybe, just maybe, you might see a few chapters come out on my stories, plus I am still working on putting out a sequel to "Waiting for Love."  I want to thank all of you that still continue to read my stories, and pass messages my way!  I love you all, and I'll try to write as soon as my life calms down a bit!

Yes it's true!  I've finally finished it.  But as I wrote in the beginning, I am planning on a sequel.  Thanks to all my readers!!!

Yes, as sad as it sounds, my Sean story will be coming to an end soon.  I just wrote another chapter, but don't worry, it wasn't the last one!  There will be more chapters, I've just got other stories planned.  I've also got to work more on my Monkees story too!  Plus I'm thinking of starting one about Taylor Hicks, for all you American Idol fans.  By the way, just got tickets to see him at the House of Blues in New Orleans in March!!!  Anyway...sorry for the bad news, but I've got to finish it sometime!  Love y'all!!!

ok, ok, stop throwing stones!  Yes, I've been neglecting quizilla for some time now, haven't posted in MONTHS!   BUT...I know I've said this before, and I'll say it again.  To start, I just recently graduated from nursing school!!!!  YAY!!!!  Finally...and I have spent my entire day reading every one of the chapters in my Sean story.  Yes, had to go through it, it's been so long!  I started writing a new chapter tonight, but I must leave the computer now, my vision is starting to deteriorate!  Things will be a bit hectic for me the next few weeks, working two jobs, graduation, and the holidays.  BUT, I WILL have a new chapter out shortly, and NO, I'm not trying to figure out a quick ending.  I've still got many more ideas for my story.  It's going to be longer than I expected.  Even though I've been so busy with school, I still carry my notebook around and jot down ideas when they come to me.  I've decided to change things up a bit, but not too much!  Anyway, I'm sorry again for not posting sooner, just had to get my career taken care of!  Also, nena, Your story is going great, you know I'm there for you girl, no matter what, and you know I loves ya! 

Thanks again to all my readers, I love each and every one of you!

P.S. Happy Thanksgiving!

The title says it all.  I'm home safely from my trip to Tulsa and about to start school again in a couple weeks.  Ugh... Anyway, when I got back I found out that my beloved computer had a virus!!!!  Thanks again nena for helping me get it back on track!  Hopefully I will be able to get some chapters to both of my stories written before class starts.  I know many of you have been asking if I will ever finish either of them, but yes, I will!  Things have just been really hectic all summer, but I'm starting to get into writting mode again!  Never fear, my journey continues.....Thanks to everyone for being so patient!  Love ya'll!

Congrats to the new American Idol Taylor Hicks!  I've been rooting for him since the beginning and he pulled it off!  Thank god Kat didn't get it, she still needs a lot of work!  My friend and I went to Lulu's in Gulf Shores, Alabama last night with thousands of other Taylor fans!  And guess what, I met his grandmother!!!  I gave her a hug and told her I was in love with her grandson!  She laughed and one of the family members was taking pictures!  God, how much I wish she would show that to Taylor!  I should have left her my number so he could call me!  Haha, yeah right!!!!  He's got tons of girls after him now!  Anyway, he's an amazing performer and his new single is coming out soon!  I'll be watching him tonight on Leno and Larry King tomorrow.  Plus he's on Regis and Kelly next week!  SOUL PATROL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Loves ya Taylor!!!

I just want to thank everyone who has read my new story so far!  I really didn't think it would do that well on this website, but I guess I was wrong!  I only put it out a few days ago, and I've had many messages and suggestions.  Special thanks to hellsangel19782003 for all of her support and kind words!  I should have the next chapter out tomorrow, I'm working on it now, but it's not quite done yet.  It's strange though, I've had a lot of comments, but no one votes????  Weird.  Truthfully, I'm not out there to get a lot a votes, doesn't matter to me in the least, but I'm just glad people are reading it!  I'm loving it up to this point, and I'm having fun writing it!  I'm also working on the next chapter to my Sean story, so look for that in the near future.  Love ya'll!

P.S. hey nena, I ate at the best sushi restaurant tonight, one night we'll have to go up there!  It's a brand new one here in OS.

Ok, so this has just been one of those days!  I had to work, blah, but I went to dinner with my mom later.  We had a few glasses of wine, but we drove to the grocery store before we went home so she could get some milk.  I needed to call my buddy nena, her husband's in the hospital, and I wanted to see how things were.  But I saw a friend of mine in the parking lot since I stayed in the car.  Well, I go out to say hi to him, not realizing mom had set the car alarm, and the stupid thing started going off!  I couldn't turn it off!  My friend came over and I felt so stupid, and I had to call my mom to tell her to get back outside and shut it off!  Fortunately it went off by itself.  God, i felt dumb!  Anyway, nena, I hope your hubby feels better soon, everything's going to be just fine.  I know as nurses, we aren't supposed to say that, but we both know everything's cool.  
I put up a really long survey about me on my homepage, so if any of you or my readers are interested about learning more crazy things about me, just check it out!  I also posted a c-box, so feel free to sign it!  If you haven't checked me out on myspace yet, do it!  I have a real cool page with lotsa pics of me and my friends, plus all the local musicians and bands I hang with.  You can learn a lot more about me from there.  If you want to check it out I'm at   http://www.myspace.com/cicadavw
it's really neat, I promise!  I love making new friends on here and myspace. 
Anyway, gotta run, hopefully tomorrow's not as crazy as today!

Hmmmmmmm......I was thinking about making a new story.  This one would be about Colin Farrell.  Kind of a celebrity meets the girl next door type and, well....you'll just have to see.  I've got a pretty good idea in my head, so please message me and let me know what you think!  There aren't many stories about him on Quizilla.  I wonder if that's because no one likes him, or no one's written any yet?!  Anyway, I am NOT thinking about wrapping up my other story, it is FAR from over.  Puleeze send me a message, I want to know everyone's opinion on this new idea!
Thanks!

What a break!  I barely got any time to do anything at all!  I spent most of my xmas vacation at work.  I went back to class yesterday and it felt like the past few weeks have flown by.  My boyfriend James is visiting right now but he is leaving tomorrow and I won't get to see him again until March.  I can't wait to get out of school.  5 or 6 more months I will be finished and I will have my nursing degree.  Then I can move to where he is.  It's going to be a long semester!  There is one thing that really sucks about this semester though.  Nena, you know what I am talking about!  At least we will still be able to see each other a couple of days out of the week!  Don't let Mrs. Miller get you riled up, or I will have to knock some sense into her!  Promise me you won't kill her.  You will just have extra time to write your stories during her lecture!  I promise you I will come down here when you graduate.  It's been a long 2 years and we both deserve to get the hell out of dodge!  Anyway, this is really crazy.  Last night me and James drove an hour to Alabama to see our buddy's band play.  It was in downtown Mobile which looked like a mini New Orleans.  At first the neighborhood looked kind of creepy, but the club we went to was really gross!  It was dirty, and rundown!  When we first walked in the guy checking ID's asked us to present our membership cards.  I was like, "What the hell are you talking about?"  He said that to go inside the establishment you had to be a member of the club, it was a rule of the town.  I had never heard of that in my life!  It was so strange!  We told him we just came in to see the band and he let us slide.  Then he wanted us to pay a cover charge but we told him we knew the band so he let us slide on that one too!  After we FINALLY got inside I wanted to punch that guy in the mouth, he was really rude!  I used to work in a night club, but I was a hell of a lot nicer than that!  Anyway, I guess everybody can't be a nice as the other!  Hopefully I will get a chance to post another story before they pile on all the work for class!

Ok, so Friday night rocked! Me and nena went to see Harry Potter and the GOF. It was so awesome! I would have to say that it is the best one yet! To all those who haven't seen it, GO NOW! Anyway, I can't wait for this upcoming week, my boyfriend is going to be here Tuesday for the Thanksgiving holidays. I haven't seen him since early September right after the big storm. On that note, I won't get a chance to work on my story that I have here on quizilla. I really don't think I'll have time! (Plus, I don't want him to read it!) Nena, if you read this, I'll see you in class on Tuesday. I know what we'll be talking about all morning! Oh yeah, don't forget to study for the pharm test! Lilbit P.S. Sean's a hottie!

Ok, so yeasterday was a weird day, school was long and boring as usual, and we had to take a test(which I found out shortly ago that I made a perfect score on!) and we got our test scores back from the exam we had Tuesday (which wasn't as good as the other score!) Anywho, Last night I was just sitting down to enjoy one of my favorite shows SURVIVOR (any other fans out there?) when I heard my psychotic cat making a lot of noise from the next room. (another note, you have to understand, my cay it seriously crazy!) I yelled at her but she wouldn't stop. I went into the room to investigate and she was sitting in the window hissing and pawing at the glass (I thought it was probably a bug outside or something.) I went to pick her up and take her out of the room when she turned around and attacked me! Not just play bitting, she actually sunk four of her teeth in my arm and scratched the hell out of me! I then realized as I clutched my bloody arm, that another cat was sitting outside the window, and was hissing back! My cat (her name is calypso) didn't mean to hurt me, but she must have been scared when I went to grab her, and her natural reaction was to just attack. Anyway, I had to clean my arm up, which still hurts like crazy today. My entire hand and forearm is swollen so my friend Katie is typing this up for me! She's so great! I hope today turns out a little better than yesterday! Oh and if you get a chance, go check out my new story "Waiting for love (a Sean Biggerstaff story)" (oliver wood from the harry potter movies) I have been getting pretty good feedback from everyone!
