The Real "Minx Deadly"

When I first made up the pen name "Minx Deadly", I sort of didn't need it for a while, so I put it in a disregarded file in the back of my mind. (Scary place, that file! :)
Anyway, a few months later, I was writing a story about a girl with horribly bad luck: She was born a mix, (Half human and half Elvin), her mother was killed and her father was banished from the Realm, she grew up, avoided being killed many times, fell in love, got married and had a child.
That's not the bad luck part though, her daughter was stolen and taken across the Forbidden River (where people of that Realm couldn't cross or they would burst into flame -- so, yeah, that had to suck) and then her husband was killed during a war a whole year later -- but she didn't actually see him die, hmm...--.
So, yeah, I had to give her a name so.....Minx Deadly! XD

Just thought you should know that before I post the next quiz. :)

Drivers Ed.


Well, today I started my first drivers session of D.E. I was pretty nervous this morning, what with all the pacing, and waking up @ 5:30 am (OMG!!) , writing sentences saying "I am not a crazy person." and "I am not a nervous wreck.
I was pretty nervous at first, but I did better than I thought I would --much better.

oh, and if you're one of my friends reading this, no, I didn't kill anybody. You should be very proud, but like I said, it's the first day.

My instructor had me to stop at a BP station so he could get some coffee. When he got back in the car, he set his drink down and said, "Now, if you spill any of my coffee, you fail."
It was at that moment that the little voice in the back of my head said to me: ''That coffee looks pretty hot, you better be careful. Remember the Jo-Anne incident?"
I replied, "Oh, yes. I remember that day."
Everybody looked at me like I was crazy.

I am not a crazy person.
I am not a crazy person.
I am not a crazy person.

Perhaps I should explain the Jo-Anne incident.

At my old school, we always had a Valentines Day/Talent Show dinner. Our school's FFA chapter always sponsored it, AKA worked, set up, cooked, served, entertained, and cleaned.
It wasn't that bad, except when people wanted coffee. We had a very, very, VERY slow coffee maker. There were students standing around, tapping their feet, sighing exasperatingly, and- well, whatever people do when they're bored or impatient.
Anyway, when I finally got my ordered 3 cups of boiling hot coffee, I was about to open the kitchen door, when suddenly it swings wildly towards me, and the drinks spilled on my clean, white, OD (official dress), shirt! Did I mention the coffee was very hot??
So, yeah. The coffee burnt me, it was Jo-Anne's fault, yada, ya.

Right, back to drivers ed....
Like I said, I was pretty nervous this morning, until I took myself aside and had a little I'm-going-to-have-a-one sided-conversation-with-myself-but-I-swear-I'm-not-crazy, chat.
I said: "You're pretty nervous right?" I nodded. "And you're not really sure you want a licence or a car, huh?" I nodded again. "You like Jaquelynn's car, right?" (Jaquelynn is one of my story characters)

I replied: "I gave her my dream car."

I said: "That's right! Now wouldn't you want to drive her car if you ever got the chance?"

I smile: "Oh defiantly!!"

I say smuggly: "Too bad. If you never get over this fear, you'll never get to driver your dream car." I start to sulk. "Will you get over your fear?" I nod vigorously. "Good."


Call me crazy, but it worked! :)

ps- I like old cars. The car pictured in the top right corner is a 1952 2 door convertible black Cadillac (my dream car).

Hee-hee.

Enjoy the rest of the summer!

The Summer Crazies

I think I've got the summer-time crazies: I actually want to go back to school.
My new school really isn't a drag at all, it's just....different. It's not what I'm used to, I admit, but I'm adapting.
The really bad thing though, is that since my old school closed down, everyone is going to be so spread out this coming school year. Now, I'm not saying that I'm going to miss everyone (because very few people that went there were actually worthy of being called a true friend --not saying everyone was unworthy, keep in mind--), but then, I kind of am saying that I'm going to miss everyone because they were so familiar to me. Most of the students there had been at that school as long as I have --since K-4.
But it is a sad thing when there isn't really a decent school in the district (well other than the school I'm at right now, but space is very limited for high schoolers at the moment) and so many students are being sent off to public schools.
Now, public school may not sound like the worse thing in the world, but keep in mind that these are kids --I mean little, 11 and younger kids-- have been in a Christian school all of their life. I'm sure that's got to be a rather un-nerving experience.

But, anyway, Yes, I'm a freak for wanting to go back to school, yada yada, I'm insane, blah blah blah.

Rock on,
Minx
