I am going to be an emotional wreck tomorrow...
aquietvillage:
My favorite show since 2007, (but officially since 2010) is ending.
I can’t comprehend my feelings for the last few episodes I just watched. I can’t even tell you how sad I am that it’s going to end.
5 seasons. Such a good run…despite the disaster that was 3/4 of season 3 & maybe season 4..
Chuck. Oh, my gawd. So many feelingsssssss!!!
/end emotional ramble
Thinking back...

NEW MUSIC: The Wanted.
The Wanted are a dance/pop boy band who don’t dance…but they play instruments.
Let me just start by saying I was in need of new music.
It took me about a week to get into them. I don’t know why I gave them so many chances, but I guess from friends’ encouragements and Ellen DeGeneres, I decided to listen to them.
My first impression of them on Ellen’s show was...

Average # of me going on my 3 social networks:
Twitter (excluding times where I tweet through my phone, since I can’t see the feed there): 3-4 times a day
Facebook: 2-3 times a day
Tumblr: 2-3 times a day
What I’ve noticed about my activities on those sites: I read through each feed before posting, liking, retweeting, or reblogging posts. Sometimes I reblog things on Tumblr at least twice a day, & this is the same with...

My social media consists of:
Twitter
Facebook
Tumblr
I keep up to date with my friends, news, and other things through those three networks. However, I want to go less on Facebook. I have thought about deleting my page, but I primarily use it to keep in touch with my relatives and friends who are not so close by from where I live. And with the media using Facebook also to promote their movies, artists, news, etc....

Happy New Year!
One of my new year’s resolutions is to post more in this Tumblr so I’ve decided to merge my book reviews and photo Tumblr all into this one! Now I would have 2 Tumblrs instead of 4…
I’m still debating if I should change the username, because it has nothing to do with photography, but maybe I’ll keep this username for now.

1st Jury Duty Experience.
This week I experienced my first jury duty. I’m not going to go into full detail about the case, mention the name of defendant or the lawyers or judge that were in the courtroom for privacy and safety reasons. I’m just going to mention what kind of case it was, my experience as a juror, and the jury duty process.
JURY PROCESS.
I was one of the many, many selected for a criminal...

I know there are people who don't read, but...
In my library class, we each selected a challenged book to research on why it’s a controversial book. Reading the specific book was not necessary, but it was helpful (Professor had students read their books in the past, but this semester she decided to let that one go).
Today, we were put in groups based on the book we’ve worked on. What I didn’t realize is that most people...

This year I've had a couple of firsts.
I apologize for my lack of updates. I have been busy with both my studies and work. Did I mention I have a job now? I’m a copywriter for a web designing company. :) Speaking of, I realized that this year I have had a couple of firsts:
driver’s license — After many, many tries, I finally passed the behind the wheels test last June.
first job — Since the end of August,...

Do you ever get visions when you listen to music?
– My English Lit professor asked a student this today since we were talking about Romanticism & imagination & stuff like that. That’s totally me. The moment he asked that question I get this flashback of me coming up with stories based on my interpretation of certain songs (I usually...

The Hunger Games vs...Twilight?
I have been reading that people say The Hunger Games series is another Twilight. It’s not. How is The Hunger Games similar to that story about an awkward girl falling for an ageless, sparkling vampire? The Hunger Games takes place in a dystopian world; it shows the growth of a young girl who never chose to become a tribute to The Hunger Games to a leader of the pack, a true heroine (at least...

dreaming's what you do.
Once the candle flicks a light Take me where I long to take flight.
This was the rhyme I last heard from a dream I woke up to this morning. It may or may not have been inspired by the current book I’m reading. In the dream, I was apparently facing death by these rebels who tore the town apart. Me and someone else were the only people left. It was when the rebels got in an argument we...

:(
While eating a late lunch with the family at home yesterday, we heard nonstop sirens and helicopters nearby. I remember asking why there was so much noise going on. My dad thought it was an accident on the freeway since it was so close by, so I thought, that was it.
Today I found out what really happened: a girl was hit by a drunk driver and was killed on the scene. She was walking to church, the...

It's McFLY's 8 year anniversary of being a band...
I’m planning to listen to all the albums in order to celebrate. Apparently the whole playlist I made it’s 4 hours worth of music…quality music by the band I love. :) It’s unbelievable that in 8 years they have made five albums. My favorite kind of changes a lot, from Wonderland to Motion in the Ocean, to Room on the Third Floor. I think their first four albums were the...

I'm officially going back to school.
I signed up for 4 classes but two I am on the waiting list. I hope that they’ll both accept me, otherwise I can’t get the cheap metro bus pass that requires you to have 12 or more units in order to get it. :( BEST CASE SCENARIO, someone ditch the first day! Otherwise I have a lot of spare time. Most of the blank spaces are for a part-time job to fill in, as well as homework (ew,...

I didn't know what I did wrong..
I can’t sleep. Probably because of too much Diet Coke I had earlier.. I wonder if putting your true major in job applications affect the process of being interviewed or hired. This occured last night while I applied to a department store. Does it really affect? Well, based from retail stores and such. Does it really matter? I’m an English Major, so perhaps if it does affect job...

The writing industry is for me..
I remember obsessively trying to get a lot of reblogs for my idea for a McFLY music video post just to get one of the McFLY guys to read it. It didn’t happen, of course… but as I listen to the song now, I still see this scenario in my head.
When I got some comments for this idea, it made me realize how much I adore cinematography. I have a thing for scenery when taking pictures. ...

Preparing myself for Chuck's final season :'(
The cast is asked how they want Chuck to end: Zach Levi says: “Awesomely.” Joshua Gomez says simply, “I don’t.” Adam Baldwin says, “… Here’s my real answer: I’m still not convinced it will end this year.”
Levi on the show ending: “It’s a little bittersweet for sure,” says Levi, who choked up saying goodbye to the crowed and thanking fans. “But we get one more season where we get to hang...

One time at Jamba Juice...
[Note: Copied this from my other Tumblr just because I wanted to relive this moment. McFLY, a band thatrefusetotourinNorthAmerica from the UK is one of my favorite bands, ever. So hearing a song of theirs here, in North America, specifically in California, is really rare. This was one of those rare times. June 14th, 2011 (it says so in one of my saved texts… ]

The launch of The Daily Fictionette
Hiiii my name is Liz. I just wanted to have a writing blog where I make original posts, and not reblog things so much. You’ll see much of that in my other personal Tumblr. You may see photos; example of my photos can be seen in my photo Tumblr. Also, books are my favorite; I write book reviews in this Tumblr.
So I thought of the name “fictionette” while figuring out a name for...
