Blue October is an independent band from Houston, Texas. They do alternative rock, and theyve been around since about 1995. I am very emotionally invested in them, I've been to three concerts (I wasn't allowed to go until I was 14, and I'm 16 now). They really mean a lot to me. Some people (the kind who like to just argue about stuff and just make people feel bad) that I know tell me that Blue is "unoriginal" (which I think their music is unlike any I've heard before, I find their sound very unique, especially the violin and vocals) and "bad", and I find it to be a personal attack. Because they actually mean THAT much to me that they are essentially insulting me when they insult Blue.

I have a lot of dedication in my writing. my sister is majoring in English and does it 24/7, and that love of writing has transferred to me, too. Especially with my character. I can feel what he feels when I write about him. It's really a great feeling when you can connect with a character that much (well... some of his situations are not ones I would like to be in, however, it's cool that I can actually emphathize with him to the point when I often cry when I write scenes).
