soul14 2004-07-23 :: 4:28 p.m. First Impression={5/5} To tell you the truth, I didn’t like anything about your diary when I first looked at it. That’s why it took me so long to bring myself to review you. I just didn’t like anything that I saw. I didn’t understand the layout. I didn’t understand the title. I didn’t really understand anything about you. Nothing caught my eye or stood out as interesting so I placed you in the boring category before I even got into the depth of you. I know this is supposed to be a "first impression" score, but I really want to give you full points because once I got to know you everything came together. Layout={25/25} I HATED it when I first saw it. I thought it was ugly and stupid. I didn’t understand it at all. Its dark and depressing and theres a lone chair sitting in a room. I thought it was horrible. But once I started reading your entries and how you feel about life and yourself and everything around you, I understood. Everything made sense. It’s a lonely layout. The chair gives a sense of loneliness accompanied by the black background. The title is definitely describing you also. You would rather run to the ends of the earth than face what you need to face. This layout fits so well with your personality that I'm going to give you full points. Content={35/35} I really like how you started entries with quotes or lyrics. It gave me a sense of how you were feeling at that particular moment and then you would back that up with your own words. There were a couple quotes that really stood out to me more than the others. One of them I can't find now but it was Sylvia Plath. The other was this: It just made me...hmm, I don’t know what it made me actually. But it got my brain working. It made me think about things in my own life. I think God has always told me that I will come to him when I'm ready. I will give my all for him when I'm ready. But I just don’t know if I'm ready yet. And I know he understands that. Whew, trying not to cry. Ok, I'm ok.... I like how you had some entries where you would write about how you were feeling and you had some entries of poetry or song lyrics. You never had an entry where you said all of what you did that day. I kind of like that. I don’t want to read about what other people did all day. I want to know how they felt that day and why. I really like reading your diary because you don’t bore me with useless information. You seem to belong to a lot of poetic diaries. That’s pretty cool. You are really poetic in your own diary and you're quite good at it. I really liked this poem. I love cigarettes. They're so powerful. These tiny little cylindrical objects can take minutes, hours, days, even years off your life depending on how much you smoke. Yet people that smoke don’t seem to care. I'm addicted to cigarettes not because of the nicotine, but because of their power... I really love everything about your diary. I'm not done reading the entries and usually when I review someone I don’t read ALL of their entries. But I want to continue reading yours because I want to read all of your poetry, I want to see if you become happier, I just want to see what happens to you. You intrigue me. Contact={3/5} Email, notes, guestbook Errors={3/5} There were quite a few but nothing that kept me from understanding what you meant. Updates={9/10} Tons and tons of entries. I don’t know what to do with them all! Extras={10/10} A bio about you, movies and soundtracks of your life, rings, wishlist, quizzes, one word, your deviant art, ricebowl journals, frozen kiss listing, and tons of poetry diaries. Wave={5/5} Yes, yes, and yes Total={95/100} Reviewed By: Kelly |
