I just burned a CD from the computer with the songs I listen to when I'm writing on it. They aren't for a paricular story, just writing in general. Here is what's on MY playlist:

  • Showdown by ELO
  • Turn to Stone by ELO
  • Mr. Blue Sky by ELO
  • Civil War by Guns & Roses
  • He Lives In You by Lebo M
  • Thriller by Michael Jackson
  • Grace Kelly by MIKA

  • Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd

So that's my playlist : )

Civil War


Hello! I haven't posted in a few days (not that anyone cares; this is more a "journal" then a blog, because not many people come here anyways lol) and so I've just started a new short story... I know, I'm psycho, right? I start to many stories at once and then lose interest in some of them, often times. Yeah, so novels are always difficult for me because I can never follow through with them... yesterday was 9/11 so I started writing a short story about the Civil War (though, honestly, what's that got to do with 9/11?) Well, anyways, the story is about a girl named Selina Gordon, and of course, Jasper (don't ask why I always use that name... the Civil War story isn't getting posted anywhere, so I figure, 'Who cares, what the heck, I'll use the name Jasper again!'. Anyways, Selina doesn't really understand much about the Civil War, just that the south is fighting the north and that people are dying and there's nothing she can do about it. Then, her best friend, Jasper, who is like a big brother to her, joins the Confederate Army (they live in Georgia, another setting I use often) and, of course, Selina is pretty sad and pretty worried. I will say no more, because all in all, it is kind of pointless since that particular story is never leaving my notebook. I might use it for school, though... hmmm....
Well, I found a song that pretty much fit my story to a "T". "Civil War", by Guns & Roses. You HAVE to check out the music video, it is a really good video, and a really good song! Click here to see the video!
TAFN (That's all for Now)

The Twilight Cars

So, I'm not into cars that much, but I figured I'd write a little post about the cars from "Twilight" anyhow. It was funny, though, because I was watching a show about cars on TV today, and the two guys in the show were looking at old cars on the streets, and they saw this old truck parked on the side of the road, and I recognized it as Bella's truck! Go figure!

The only reason I recognized it, though, was from a picture of Bella's truck on Stephenie Meyer's website. The truck is called a 1953 Chevrolet (Chevy) Pickup Truck.
Edward's Volvo is called the "S60 R", and the picture of it is on the right. So, then there's Carlisle's Mercedes. He has a nice car : ) His car is called the S55 AMG Mercedes. Rosalie's BMW M3 Convertible is pictured on the left
.
Okay, so then there's Emmett's Jeep Wrangler. I actually saw that at a car dealership the other day, and it was actually a really awesome car! I love Jeeps! Anywho, the picture of his Wrangler is at the bottom of this entry. Go to Stephenie's Page for the Cullen Cars, where I got all this info.NOTE: None of these car pictures belong to me!

Chapter Two is Up!


I've just posted chapter two of "Raining in Heaven"! It is almost a very short chapter, but the next one is probably going to be much longer! In this chapter, Alice is taking Jasper ANIMAL hunting for the first time, though Jasper isn't quiet sure that he can live the lifestyle they are aiming for. :'(
Well, anyway, I'm working on the third chapter once, but it has been kind of hectic, because I'm writing two stories at once! Anyways, the picture on the right is the "poster" kind of thing that I made for Raining in Heaven, with a quote from the story. S0, I'm going to be going now, and I'll post more tomorrow, or maybe more later. Buh bye!

First Chapter is Up!

The first Chapter of "Raining In Heaven", my latest and greatest piece, is FINALLY UP! You can view it at http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3772307/1/RAINING_IN_HEAVEN ! Yay!
I don't have much else to say but "Enjoy!" and "PLEASE REVIEW!" I really enjoy them reviews *wink*

Restless

I'm getting sooo restless! In a few short minutes, I'll FINALLY be off of my "suspension" from the fanfiction.net administrators and I'll be allowed to post stories again! Yay! So, I'm a few SECONDS away now from posting RIH (Raining in Heaven)
AHHH! It is time!

Raining In Heaven Images



Click to view some of these super cool "covers" I've made for my new story "Raining in Heaven", which is about Alice and Jasper. The first picture is a quote from my story, spoken by Alice, and the second is just a simple design I made that represented the fog and the haze that Alice were dwelling in.






Twilight THE MOVIE?!

Whee! Stephenie Meyer says that there may be a movie! How exciting! Anyways, I've already decided what actors and actresses I think resemble the characters from twilight the best. That was fun! You can see some of my picks by clicking here, but I'll post some of my picks here too.
I had a hard time deciding for Bella. Bella, Bella, Bella. Bella has a very unique personality, and I was (still am) doubtful that ANYONE could match her unique person. I picked Danielle Panabaker though. Sure, she's a red head. Bella's not. Bella's a brunette. But, this was the closest I could get to Bella.
I couldn't pick anyone for Edward, so I just randomly picked Matthew Lawrence, who is, by the way, MUCH to old. Though, he doesn't relly scream "Edward!" to me.

Ah, Jasper, my Jasper (as i said on my prof) Jasper was fun to pick! I love Jasper, of course, because (as the book says) he's a little on the fringe of things. That's definately me. (Though, I am not of vampire of course!) So, I picked Trent Ford! Yeah, Jasper has blonde hair, so what? I never really pictured him as a blonde, and Trent Ford screams Jasper to me! (See the picture on the top? That's MY Jasper!)
Now, Alice. Alice was very easy to pick! Rachel Leigh Cook! Funny thing is, this is EXACTLY how I picture Alice. Her eyes would be kind of big, and she has inky black hair. Though I know they say she has SPIKY hair that never grew back (she's a vampire, duh) after it was shaved at the asylum, I always thought of her with a bit longer hair.
Joanna Krupa for Rosalie! Blonde, pretty... has to be Rosalie!
Now for Emmett. Will Friedle. Look at him! Does he not SCREAM Emmett?! <-- Look at him! It is Emmett I tell you! EMMETT!!!
That's all the casting I've done for now. Oh, and I forgot...
Charlie = Dennis Quaid, Jacob = Steven Strait, and I have no idea when it comes down to Carlisle and Esme. They are both so unique! So I'm done now. Enjoy!

Raining in Heaven

New Story! New Story! It is called Raining in Heaven! It is all about how Alice and Jasper met... because I absolutely ADORE Jasper and Alice. This story is based on a small part of the story Jasper told Bella in "Eclipse", in which Alice came along and told him about the Cullens. Now, this story describes how Alice helped Jasper make the conversion to thriving on animal blood, instead of human blood, and how they traveled together, trying to find the Cullens so they could live peacefully... and it is coming along nicely! Haven't posted it yet... will soon. I'm halfway through the second chapter : )

Cicily and Piper Fics!

Welcome to Cicily and Piper Fanfics!
A Little Bit About this Blog:

We're Cicily B and Piper Aruub! We are both authors at http://www.fanfiction.net/, the site where authors can post their fanfiction stories! We posted this blog as an extention to our stories and such. So now, how about we tell you a little bit about ourselves?

Meet Cicily B:
Hi, I'm Cicily B and I LOVE to write. In addition to personal stories that I work on for my own enjoyment, I also love to write fanfics and post them on http://www.fanfiction.net/ . I've only written two stories and I'm working on a third. The first story (still uncompleted) is called Zurich, in which the Cullen family goes on vacation to Switzerland. The next piece was a bit trickier. It was in AIM format, and I really enjoyed writing it, until, sadly, fanfiction.net administration removed it... I never figured out why...

Meet Piper Aruub:
If two words could sum up my entire soul, these would be them "computer geek". I'm a real computer geek and I spend most of my time on the computer, gleefully typing away, writing and writing and writing while simultaneously talking to friends on Instant Messanger. That pretty much sums up my whole existence.
