Amazing... I haven't actually updated my progress diary in over a year, and yet this was where I was supposed to keep people informed... Shame on me.
I'm sorry to however reads this, if you ever read it again after waiting so long for a update that never arrives... I am just lazy.
I have updated many times since my last post.
My B&V fics are up on ff.net
I have a couple of new fics.
I've got chappies of 16 Going on 22 uploaded.
Ooh, about that last one - I am nearly finished it ;)
I have a few plans and stuff, but currently I am weighed down with coursework.
Hopefully at Easter I will get more done, since my English Language coursework is due in on March 28th, and my film is due in on the 29th (MY BIRTHDAY damn it....) so I'll have no coursework for over Easter (yey!)
Better get on with my English coursework then...
Hope to update soon
Hugs

Just posted up my 3rd story for the 30kisses community. Tis a Yamcha POV oneshot.
I'm in the process of ignoring what I promised earlier and prepping my BV stories for ff.net. It's been too long since I updated anything on there so posting a few one-shots will hopefully get the ball rolling for me and I may finish off the next chappie for my Cardcaptor Sakura fics.
Time is short. Luckily for me, college has presented me with no homework this week, although I have been shattered due to all the running around and screwed up timetables. So I am hoping to get fanfiction done at weekends at least, but with Christmas coming soon I need money for presents and so I may have to take on a Saturday job, thus limiting my fanfiction writing time again.
Nevermind though. I will eventually get stuff done.
I'll post my 3 Bulma x Vegeta fics on fanfiction.net. They shall add to the masses and be lost in the database with days but still. At least they are there and it shows the ff.net community that I am not dead. Sorry to interupt their celebrations lol.
So at some point today these fics will be appearing on ff.net :
[theme #1 - Look Over here] "Look At Me."
[theme #4 - Our Distance and That Person] "What Man Would?"
[theme #23 - Candy] "Candy Hearts"
Enjoy lol. Or not..

Anyways, no updates yet, though I am working on a companion fic to the 2nd B/V fic I posted on 30kisses. It's in Yamcha's POV.. always interesting since no-one know how B and V got together and how Yamcha took it. Everyone always write that he cheated on her... tempting and easy an option as that is.. I believe Yamcha is actually nice inside and am not doing that this time. Maybe in another fic but that idea has been done to death now anyways...
Aussi, je vais écrire un histoire avec le paire de Meroko et Takuto (Full Moon wo Sagashite) parce que j'ai un ami qui adore le paire et j'aime le paire un peu aussi. Heureusement pour vous, je ne soumettre pas l'histoire jusqu'à c'est fini.* Not for a while then XD In the meantime I shall concentrate a little more my current stories, rather than focus on starting a new one and adding yet another to the list. It'll be a boredom prject that I'll start and add to when inspiration strikes. That way I'm without pressure.
Oh! And my French is trés rusty and trying to put all the accents in is time consuming... Hope the stuff made sense to those who know French and apologies since I wasn't such on conjugugating the verb "soumettre".. is it reflexive? No clue here.. Help me please! I start French in college in Septemeber and have lost lots of knowledge while in my vegetive summer-holiday state..
Back to the topic though: I'm almost done the next chappie of "Sixteen Going On Twenty Two" but I still have no clue how it will end, but it will be shortly, for those who are wondering where the original plot went to. It was no stolen by the plot bunnies.. it's just.. erm.. well really, it's me being long winded as usual, but I kinda did it on purpose... yeah, I'm weird XD
Updates shall come soon. But not soon enough I am afraid..
Au Revoir, mes amis!

I have now completed another story for the 30kisses. Yes, 2 in the space of a week. Amazing... I am quite pleased with myself :P
That and I added a little more to some of my other stories. And I have almost every one of the 30kisses fics planned out apart from maybe 3 at the most.
It's really tempting to put my Vegeta/Bulma fics up on ff.net but I'm standing by what I said before.
To make things a little more stressful for me I actually planned out another fic.
It's weird. This fic has been floating around for months- since the end of last year I think- and it was originally a song-fic but I scrapped it before I got past the first page due to songfics being banned. Now I've found the scrap and I planned it out, transforming it from a one-shot songfic to a 5 chaptered story. The events are all layed out and I've begun the first part of chapter one.
It's called "After The Lights" and is dedicated to BlackHat from the totallychibi.com forums, who is a Maron/Zen shipper. She convinced me that the pairing was cute and although I'm still a fan of Maron/Chiaki, I think this pairing doesn't get enough spotlight. I can't find any Maron/Zen fics existing on ff.net at the moment so when this eventually gets completed it could be the first. It's AU though.. and is gonna be a PG13. I think it's a bit of a weird story... and it's going to be one of the most dramatic ones I've written so I'm hoping I can write it in a way that makes it a tear jerker. If not then I'm obviously not that good a writer.
I'm not good with deadlines either. I guess inspiration for "Sixteen Going On TwentyTwo" and "That's Show Business" has escaped me. It's been a while since I've read any Sakura x Syaoran fiction so I'm going to have to get back into it to get the bug again :P
As for "Li Shang's New Dilemma" finding the time and patience to write out the script for the movie is pretty darn difficult right now. But if I don't do it soon I may never get it done, since this summer is the transition between secondry school and college. Once September rolls round I may be too busy for fanfiction, so it is vital I finish all my fics this summer, incase I never find spare time to write when I'm at college. The curse of taking 4 subjects and a night class. And having to find a job too.
Oooh, this quick update kinda turned into a long update didn't it? Better get back to work...
- Mood:

Well, I apologise for the HUGE gap since I last updated. I'm afraid the gap is gonna get a bit bigger before I update, since I'm not done with new chappies yet, ( "what? Still!?") But have no fear, for at the moment I am in a fanfiction writing mood and I have plenty of time now to write. So tis a matter of summoning my muses and finding inspiration.. and avoiding any distractions *glares at anime episodes on hard drive*
Anyways, I now have an extra incentive since I joined the Live Journal community 30kisses and have a monthly deadline for new Bulma x Vegeta fics.
It won't stop me doing my other fics on fanfiction.net though. Only I won't be starting on "Li Shang's New Dilemma" till after I've completed one of my existing fics, or finished the 30kisses challenge.
Good news is I'm almost done the next chapter of "Sixteen Going On TwentyTwo" and I have some ideas planned for "That's Show Business". Also I've got summaries/plans for 19 of the 30 themes on the challenge. Some are more detailed than others and they range from one-shots to really long one-shots (not doing chapters- too faffy)
And to make things even better I've already done one ^_^ I completed theme #23- Candy this evening, and I wrote it in 1 night! I'm so proud :P Took about an hour and a half which is like a record for me :)
Anyways, apologies for not updating on ff.net, but soon I promise ;)
Oh and incase you're wondering I will eventually put up the 30kisses onto ff.net, but not till all 30 themes are done :) The 30kisses community need to see them before the ff.net community...
I'm off to bed, cos tis like almost half past eleven here. I shall write more tomorrow :)
Oyasumi!

The reason I am a bad person is because I have started writing new fics when I haven't finished my others.
Lack of inspiration for my Cardcaptor Sakura fics has resulted in little being written of "Sixteen Going On Twenty Two" and "That's Show Business".
Recent ideas for Dragonball Z fics have popped up and so I am writing another K/18 fic for that and I have another K/18 and a couple of Vegeta/Bulma fics ready to be noted down.
To top it off I have started on the sequel to "Li Shang's Dilemma" creatively titled "Li Shang's New Dilemma" but before I get too far with that I am reviewing all my old fics and reposting the revised versions, hopefully grammar-mistake-less and tidy.
I have little time on my hands at the mo. Revision for the exam ya know...
but good news is I'm half-way there *cheers*
just *counts* 7 exams left!!!! And most of them are French and don't last too long.
Just think.. on Tuesday 28th June at 9.30am I am officially free of school and will have a ton of spare time. *sighs blissfully*
Till then I have some wonderful scientific equations to memories as well as a ton of French vocab for the reading, writing and listening exams. And then there's history.
Wow. That is all I have left. 2 science exams (one which is tomorrow and the other is my last exam) then one history exam and the remainder are French.. darn that module 2 resit. Why did I get a cold on the exam last year? I might have had a day off if I didn't get a B. Ah well. Tis a chance to get my deserved grade :)
Anyways, I apologise for not writing more or updating more on my existing stories. I will try better......
- Mood:
ditzy - Music:Jpopsuki Radio - random songs :P
I am an idiot...
I should really upload some more chapters, but alas, don't have any :(
I am gonna start typing some more as soon as I finish apologising here.
I have planned out the first chapter of my sequel to "Li Shang's Dilemma" and I have a couple of ideas for new Mulan fics.
I also have an idea for a Peach Girl fic and possibly a Kamikaze Kaiotu Jeanne fic or two.
First things first though, I need to complete at least one of my Cardcaptor Sakura fics.
I am preying that inspiration will strike me within the next few days for those fics that I have.
I suppose the good news for anyone waiting for an update on "Sixteen Going On Twenty-Two" is that the next chapter promises to be a lot longer than any other. I combined my plans for 2 separate chapters together and voila! a long chapter (for once).
I'll try and get something done before I revise for my horrific week of exams next week (Science, Maths, DT,English, History and English again)
No worries though. I will get something done :P *preys*
Well, must get cracking *zooms off to word processor*
- Mood:
must write fanfics!!! - Music:I <3 U - The Scanty (Full Moon wo Sagashite OP1)
Bad News = I deleted "Solitary Man" Why? Because songfics are not allowed apparently. FF.net are cracking down on them, since the lyrics are not the author's own work. I may eventually get it back up again lyric-less, but in a way it spoils the effect of the fic without the lyrics. *sigh*
In other news: No other new chapters done, but again, many idea floating around for new fics.
I am wanting to drop everything and do a set of Luffy x Nami fics since there is a bit of a shortage and they are just so the bestest couple XD
But I don't really have time...
Exams start in a week. My Drama performing exam is tomorrow, (oh, and I did my French and it went well yey!)
So please don't expect too much in the way of updates from me over the next few weeks. Revision will take up most of my time...

Chapter 8: Hong Kong Holiday is now up! *Cheers excitedly*
I really like this chapter, even though it took a while to write. I couldn't word it properly and I still can't word the next chapter properly. It's going to be quite long, but as I said in my author notes at the end of chap 8, I am going to try and get it done this week, despite my French speaking and practising for the Drama performing exams.
In other new, I'm getting my puppy tomorrow XD
I know that has nothing to do with fanfiction but I just have to announce it! He is adorable.
He is an black-brindle English Bull Terrier - the son of a former Cruft's Champion and my old dog's great-nephew. My old dog, Heidi was a really cute and happy doggie, until we found out she had kidney disease and it got really bad and she had to be put to sleep... that was the very beginning of February and her niece was having pups (which were born in March) so we arranged to get a new puppy since they were related to Heidi. His name is gonna be Bodie and he's going to be a show dog, like his 'Best of Breed'-winning father.
Enough about that though.
My other fics haven't been worked on much, but I am going to, don't worry.
Still no sequel to "Li Shang's Dilemma" but all in good time, my friends, all in good time.

Chapter 7 of "Sixteen Going On Twenty Two" is up and I am poised to upload chapter 8. I;m having a bit of difficulty wording Chapter 9 and with exams starting May 6th for me, I will be having less and less time to write. All of my coursework is in now though (except an evaluation of my media vid but that'll be done by Wednesday) so all that is in the way, is my mother who threatens to disconnect my net access and hide my mouse and keyboard until I do some revision... n.n;
Just to clear something up - with chapter 7 I made a lot of it up since I have only ever been to an airport ONCE when I was 5 and so I haven't really got a clue about airport proceedures. I just guessed from whatI see on tv. *needs to get out more*
Other fics are as slow as ever. Hiatus is still on "Solitary Man", "That's Show Business" hasn't had anymore written since last time, and nothing yet on my sequel to "Li Shang's Dilemma" =(
But at least I updated one fic, right?
I must take my leave now, since I fear I am coming down with a cold and I must rest. Exams are a week away and I cannot go into my French speaking exam croaking like a frog. *no slight intended there - I LOVE French! ;)*
Must go and get some water, paracetamol and some throat medicine. And some tissues.. plenty of tissues...
Till next time

*cough* damn these colds! - Music:none.. my ears hurt 'cos of blocked sinuses...
In fact, I have writte 2 chapters of "That's Show Business",3 chapters of "16 going on 22" and... I think that's all =( ok, I guess I haven't been writing much. And I haven't even started on my sequel to "Li Shang's Dilemma".
I started this entry positive but now I realise I have been very very bad.
I should really upload, ne?
I keep getting ideas for fanfics but since I am so busy and I have a heap of other fics to finish I never start. I have an archive of fic ideas to plow through after I complete a few of my existing ones.
Should I finish a fic before uploading it?
I need to plan more don't I? *sigh*
I'll get around to everything eventually.
With this being my most important year of schooling, I have lots of exam revision and the final few pieces of coursework left to do. By the time the end of June comes, I'll be gone from school for good and it's next step: college come september. So it is a guarantee that I will get my fics done in those few months in between when I have not a care in the world. I look forward to that intermission, where I am no longer classed as a kid, I have no schoolwork and would not have any more worries until the september when I enrol in college. Till then though, I will continue to write whenever I can and hope to be finished at least one of my fics by then. =)

I have just uploaded a one-shot Valentine's fic about Krillin and Android 18 from Dragonball Z. It only took about an hour to write. If only my other fics could be written in that amount of time. ^_^;
Anyways, I also started on another one-shot, for a friend of mine in the Totally Chibi forums. I promised ages ago I would write her a Zen x Maron fic (Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne) and I got the idea the other day.
I'm ashamed to say that I haven't started the second part of Li hang's Dilemma, but I have almost completed the next chapter of "That's Show Business". I still have most of "Sixteen Going On Twenty-Two" planned out, but haven't had the motivation to write it. Sorry guys. I will try and get it done this week though, since I'm off school *yey!!!!* but tomorrow I have to babysit my little cousin, Maddison, and since my dad is on nightshift and needs his sleep, I'll be out all day and won't get to write fan fiction. But I'll try and get more done anyway.
Thanks for being so patient.

Anyway, since I feel terrible about it, I want to share some music with you.
This is one of my favourite songs at the moment and is very cutesy and hyper: perfect to cheer you up when, like me, school gets you down, or maybe, like perhaps you, when a certain fanfic author doesn't update the story you want to read. Also there is a Mulan song for those who like my Disney's Mulan fanfic. Enjoy.

I have some ideas floating around about a Valentine's Day fic or two, which I'll start on when I'm caught up.
I had to change user on my computer in order to get the internet working and spend all day trying to find a way to make my account work properly. I just transferred what episodes were on my computer to the shared documents folder so they are safe and I can delete my old account as soon as I find a way to transfer some of my emails to my inbox on the new account so that myreviews are safe and my incredimail letters are avaliable. But in the meantime I can access the net on my new account and I should be back on track in about 2 weeks (given that there is so much to type up and write and plan and stuff)
I managed to get all of my e-mails. It took a while sorting out the 72 I had recieved but I'd like to thank everyone who reviews and especially my loyal "Li Shang's Dilemma" reviewers since there are so many and they always let me know how they feel. Don't worry people, I am continuing (see the post I made the other day) and I am full of ideas since watched Mulan 2 again today.
Right, well, I'd better get cracking with sorting my new account.I have to begin typing up too.
- Mood:
thankful - Music:nothing! I have no music on this account yet!
Now, I know it has been a while (a LONG while) but I can explain. The first few weeks of not updating was a mixture of laziness, lack of inspiration, school, christmas shopping and work experience. The few week over christmas, when I was on my holidays from school, my excuse is my computer was broken. It still is as well. That is why there is a lack of updating. My internet isn't working so I am clearing out my computer so I can reboot it, sort out what I need to get online and get back to normal. For the moment, I have to put up with using my parent's computer, and that means sticking to their rules *darn it*.
But you know, I haven't been completely lazy! I have the plan all sorted for "Sixteen Going On Twenty Two" and am attempting to write out the chapters by hand then when I get round to removing the 60 or so anime episodes off my computer so it can be rebooted, I will type it up.
I have hand written one more chapter of "That's Show Business" and have made a decision about my Mulan fic, "Li Shang's Dilemma". I am going to continue into the sequel since I got that for Christmas. Since Shang really changes in that movie, I think it would be interesting to interpret things my way for that now that I've done the first movie.
By the time my computer is running again, I may have actually FINISHED a fan fic! (Don't hold your breath though)
Finally, I did try and write a christmas one-shot Bulma-Vegeta DBZ fan fic but with the computer problems, it wouldn't have gotten up in time, so maybe I'll finish it off and post it next Christmas.
Till my next update (which will be as soon as I can get on my parent's computer next)
Bye!
(oh, and since my internet is out of action, I have not been recieving any reviews, whether good, or threats to kill me for not updating. Sorry. I will make up for it when my computer is revived. Thanks for your patience!)

Incase you don't know, Audioscrobbler is a website where you can record what you listen to. You download a harmless plug in and it sends info as to what songs you listen to to the database so that people can se what songs you listen too. It is really cool.
I've also been chatting on MSN to my friends about Saturday (tomorrow)
I'm going shopping with my best friend Rachael and my good friend Dani and maybe my other good friend Kelly. It's been hectic arranging the times, and it is a big thing since Dani and Rachael haven't seen each other for like 6 years or something.
And finally, I have been reading classic novels lately. Like Pride and Prejudice, Northanger Abbey, and at the moment: Wuthering Heights. I love 'em all. Next on my list is "Emma" by Jane Austen, and "The Hunchback Of Notre Dame" by Victor Hugo. Then "Les Miserables" and "The Mayor Of Castorbridge" (My friend Helen is reading it and it sounds good.
I've resorted to reading, since I am only allowed 2 hours on the computer per night, and.. well, I have to do something to stop me from being bored.
Exams are over! *Screams with joy* and next week is work experience. I am working in * dun dun dun * a library surprise surprise. I just love books! I'll be working 9-5 from Mon-Fri. No school, just work. I can't wait!!!!
I will try to do some fanfiction tomorrow, I promise, before The X Factor comes on at 6.55pm. I just love that tv show (Simon Cowell and Sharon Osbourne arguing. Sheer hilarity.)

2 hours is definately not enough time to...
a) Update my new website ( http://www.freewebs.com/cabbit-chan
b) have a daily round on Neopets.com collecting stuff etc
c) write new chapters for my 5 fan fics
d) browse the 2 messageboards I am part of
e) type up any homework/coursework
f) revise on revision websites
g) download new animes via BitTorrent
and
h) update this Livejournal
So as you can imagine, it gets pretty hectic trying to do even 1/2 the stuff in 2 hours...
I did manage today, however, to type the beginning of a new chapter for "Li Shang's Dilemma" - I was debating whether to continue it or just finish with that last chapter I wrote.. any comments people?
I also attempted to type a little more of "Sixteen Going On Twenty Two" but got sidetracked slightly by the internet.
Any how, it would be nice to know what you guys thought about the "Li Shang's Dilemma" chapter situation. Should it continue? I'm almost out of ideas...
