Thought I would post another intro and make my presence known to the general population. *nods*

Some may have already noted the return of my insane fanfiction "Animorphs Enter the Beast Wars". There have been a few minor changes to it since the original posting of it on the old board. I've added a bit more info on the Maximals & Predicons, altered/added a little dialogue and there is finally a new part! Short, but new none-the-less.

Went on a walk with my younger sister and we had a long discussion about the story and how/why things were written the way they were and what direction the story could take in the future. For example: what would certain characters do and why. It was a great talk and I think my sister helped me generate some ideas. Hopefully I can make them work out. (IE: the new plot twist developing in the new installment).

Anywho, a little about myself: I am in college, majoring in elementary education. I still have my collection of Animorph books. I have pretty much every book there was. All 54 regular books, 4 megamorphs, all Chronicles, a double of one and a copy of book 4 in french.

Last year I got my younger sister hooked on the series and she's most of the way through. Hasn't read the Megamorphs or Chronicles yet. She heard Andalite Chronicles because I read it out loud to her. It's great, she's 15 and doesn't mind me reading things out loud to her because I get to do voices. Heh, she's probably just humoring me. *shrug*

My real name is Rachel (and yes, I'm blond). But I'm the complete opposite of book Rachel. I hate clothes shopping and I'm not that outgoing. I've compared myself more to Cassie than Rachel.

And I live in fabulous VA. Seriously, I love it here.

Think I'll start checking out threads to get myself out there. See y'all around the forum!

*"Give me the vampire piggies!"

I had to applaud you. I miss the Beast Wars on TV, and I imagine that I'll be reading your fic very soon.
Nice use of cross-fandom-fiction!

It was lots of fun! I was visiting with a friend that I haven't seen in 2 years. We walked around Chicago where she lives. Visited plenty of shops, a museum and saw a great play called Ain't Misbehavin'!

Glad to be home, but little sad the week went by so fast. Guess that's what happens when you have a lot of fun.  ;D

Well, summer is coming to a close. I can't believe it.

The 14th I get to go have my wisdom teeth removed. *joy*

Then on the 19th my family will be driving me back up to college. After that I'm not sure how often I'll be able to get on. I'll try, but between the classes I got and other stuff, it may not be very often.

Am currently working on the next part of my fanfic and will do my darndest to get it up soon.

Y'all are awesome. I love this forum!  ;D

Wisdom teeth? Been there, I have. Fun, it was not.
Funny for my family, it was.
Like Yoda, I shall now stop speaking.

Sorry.

Just...make sure they knock you out first, okay? Good luck with that.

Thanks. My mom already made it clear the lady she set up the appointment with that I wanted to be knocked out.

I had told her earlier after the dentist said we should make the appointment, "I want to be knocked out! I want to be blissfully unaware of what they are doing."

Had already heard fun stories from someone I work summer camp with about how wonderful I'll feel the next day. Have plans to stock up on things like ice cream, applesauce, pudding, fruit chillers and saltine crackers.

Ooh, now I'm going to go for a couple of Yoda sentences! Might be fun.

Looking forward to this, I am not. But necessary, dentist says it is.

Ok, enough of that, I'm too tired to think in Yoda sentences. It's better now than later. Thanks to braces a few years ago, my wisdom teeth are growing funny. If I leave them, then one of them impacting the tooth next to it would mean I'd need a root canal on top of having the wisdom teeth pulled. So...probably better to get that out of the way now. *nods*

*nods in agreement*

Braces. Ugh. Been there, too, I have.

My deepest empathy, I give to you. :hug2:

Oh, by the way, after you wake up, make sure someone records the whole thing on video. You'll look and sound exactly like this : :droolfactor10:

Trust me. It's extremely funny when someone else cannot control the movements of their jaw, lips, and tongue.

(Of course, YOU won't find it as funny when the painkillers wear off, but some vicoden and tylenol 3 will fix you up nicely.)


God bless the person who discovered vicoden.  :love08:

Yeah, I'm pretty sure my dad will have to keep from laughing when it's all over and done with. I mean, I like to pop in plastic vampire teeth and try to talk with those and my parents are like, "We can't take you seriously talking like that."

Oh yeah. People have totally advised me to make sure to get any pain med prescriptions filled pronto.

Man, with all the stories I've heard I'm kinda envying the people that don't need to go through this. *sigh*

The real trick is this:

Don't worry about it.


No, seriously. Worrying CANNOT help anything even ONE LITTLE BIT. It will not prevent any potential discomfort, and it is more likely to have a negative effect on you, if anything.

Before you even walk into the office, you should find a 'happy place' for yourself. Jah, I know how corny that sounds, but it works amazingly well. Relax as much as you possibly can, and think about things that make you happy.

Just trust me on this one. :)
