Bitterlies's Review April 08, 2004 @ 8:20 p.m. Bitterlies- ~*!*~ {{ heat and flash }} ~*~Username and Title: Bitterlies. As opposed to...sweet lies? Almost poetic actually. I rather enjoy it. As for your title...it doesn't fit your username. It's nice. It just doesn't fit. -4/5. ~*~Thoughts While The Page Was Loading: I miss my boyfriend and I'm tired and grades just came out and...ooh, a cartoon!-5/5. The Starlit-Lily Factor: ~*~Does Your Soul Shine Through? Uh huh. You really project yourself into this diary. It's an extension of yourself, as much as any diary can be. I become you as I read this diary, and I feel what you feel. Tres bien. I'd put the accent in, but I don't know how to on Diaryland. I really feel, though, that you give the reader a look into your soul. Mmmm. -34/35. ~*~Are You Observant Of Beauty? Some of the time. You do complain a lot, and you're quite self-involved. But I understand how happy things can sometimes be rather boring to write about. And sometimes you just don't have it in you to write about them. So I almost want to overlook the complaining entries. But sometimes - god, I just want to shake you and tell you to open your eyes and look out of your closed off little world. -25/35. Layout: It's so...black and white. With pink. I'm a favor of black and pink. And I'm a favor of white and pink. But not black, white, and pink. It's a quirk, what can I say? Your picture is nicely manipulated, though the quote within it is rather disturbing. Maybe it refers to something and I'm just not getting it, but I was expecting something cute and funny with a picture you might see in the comic section of a newspaper. And that was just...not. Your title makes sense now, though. -15/20. Navigation: Urgh. Shoot me. I had no idea what your links were leading to, and I'm not a big fan of the hover to find out. I just want to know. Right then. And it bugged me. Plus you had no link to your current entry. Also annoyed me. I'm sticking my tongue out at you. -5/10. Content: ~*~Your Content: I read every single entry. And a fair few of the entries in your older diaries. You have no idea how much I enjoy seeing a diary mature as the diarist grows. Your writing style improved greatly, and you just seemed...it was like reading a whole new diary. I really loved seeing that. ~*~Your Grammar and Spelling: Ehh. You don't capitalize. I think lack of capitalization in entries just screams "I am a depressed teenager who thinks that my life is harder than anyone else's." It's not so hard to press the damn "Shift" button. I saw a fair few spelling errors, maybe typos. -6/10. Extras: Will I Return? Maybe. Every once in a while, probably. Comments: I truly enjoyed reading your diary. Keep on doing what your doing. I only offer suggestions, because as Cielamara says, "Nothing is perfect". The score's not as high as you might have hoped...but that's life. Suck it up. Total: 162/200. ![]() !~***~ ~*~!~*~ ~***~! ~*~Recently Reviewed Lilies~*~ |

Too often they come back unread: "return to sender, addressee unknown."
