WHEN YOU GET THIS CONVERSATION!!!

Listening to Writing Excuses and his lectures have finally paid off in things other than my writing!

When you have 16 pieces of paper laid all over your floor, that you are in the process of coloring each of the Feurochemic and Allomatic symbols on. There are two on each, and I'm writing the basic info for each metal/person who can use that metal under each symbol.

When you get your Kindle taken away for a day, and the only thing you miss is the OB audiobook you are in the process of listening to. This is my third time reading it!

The Scrabble online dictionary has it, so as far as word games in my family are concerned -- it's a word.  Granted, I'll probably never use it or hear it in a normal conversation. 

You know you're a Sanderfan when you try to casually slip the word "lurcher" into everyday conversation.

(Sorry for the double post. Just saw this).

When you just realized that the Skimmer Ferring symbol looks like the first letter in your first name... Thanks Tesh. Time to start writing my name differently...

Brilliant!

I'm going to do some with the symbols of the planets, the Cosmere, and some aons. I've already done the orders of the Knights Radiant. I did post it on here several pages ago.

Note: I TRACED ALL OF THESE! I DID NOT FREEHAND! Or safehand. Fortunately.

When you freak out when you are watching a tv show and they mention a substance called ODIUM which makes the person who drinks it into a beserker who feels no pain!!!

Woahh those are amazing!! And even if you didn't freehand that doesn't make it less impressive. Some of us (totally not referencing myself. Totally) can't even draw properly when we trace

nice. a very explanatory name, if I may point out

For real though.

When you go through a full body metal detector at the airport, and you think they can't sense any metal on you, because of innate investiture. Then you tell yourself that it's a metal detector not an investiture detector.

When you swallow copper before going through a metal detector, for obvious reasons. (I've never done this, to be clear. I don't attempt to hide things from metal detectors. I'm a better person that that. I think. Maybe.)

I had a weird dream last night.

It involved my dad remodelling our house, therefore my room, but it rained during the storming Everstorm, and ruined my floor, and almost got to my books. But then I went to piano lessons. But when I got back, they was this tree, where if you took a blossom and blew on it, you'd get a gift. When I blew on one of mine, these yellow blossoms blew out, and then I was Ta'Veren, or however you spell that. I dud it again, and these white flowers came out, and they were the assassin in white. Then my friend got one, and turned into a giant inflatable seal manatee thing with red eyes. That could fly. So he joined two other of the deal manatees. Oh, and they were charged by the Everstorm's lightning. And we're, of course, of Odium. But before that incident with the flowers... I keep having recurring dreams of these really creepy rides, all basically the same.You go through these doors,and there's this really long room, with a track running down the middle, and a tunnel at the far end. The room is full of giant children's toys. But in the ride, you get in a cart, and go through the tunnel. In there, there are even more of them off both sides. Like Jack in the box, or dolls.

But I had heard that a darkness had overtaken one of these rides, and went to investigate. The first one I went to was normal. The second one had this green neon glue coming from it. When I went in, there was a darkness there. Just like one of the Unmade. 'cause I was listening to that part of OB when I was getting ready for bed.

I think they're were some tunnels in the walls that a crawled through, and have been seeing in my dreams for years, and maybe a dinosaur, and a Mistborn coin thrown at my head.

 

Oh, and I did these yesterday.

I found the picture I wanted, pulled it up on my laptop, and made it the size I wanted on the laptop by coming in or out. Then I talked a piece of paper on, and traced it in pencil. For some of them, I had to scroll to get the bottom of the picture, so that is a pain, just to warn you. But then I traced them with different permanent markers, with different tips, then colored them in. In the case of the Radiant glyphs, I used colored pencils for the glyphs, and black permanent marker for the surges. For all the other ones, though, all I used was permanent marker.

When your dad walks into your room in the morning saying, rise and shine, and you think, I'd only be able to do that if I was a Windrunner or Skybreaker.

Since I only recognized the Windrunner glyph, I went through these using just the surges to identify the other orders lol. Ex. Gravitation led to Skybreakers, Destruction to Dustbringers, etc.
