the spark

*Jenamae*

*Content* (80/100) I read your symbolic dream entry as an introduction. To tell you the truth, from this entry, it seems as if you take your dreams waaayyyy too seriously, I dreamt about cows the other day- I'm sure we could find symbolism in that too. Your "famdayout" entry bored me (even though it was sweet: the whole family relationship thing) too many details of your day that I frankly don't want to know about. I did like your "sunnight" entry- from what I've read it seems as if you were a girl who was raised somewhat like me: with family values and a strong basis in religion. You seem to follow your values more than I do, but that's a different story....I admire you for that. You seem so content with your family and your days. You seem to be such a happy person. When I first clicked on your diary link I thought "oh great, another goody-two-shoes Christian person" but I never expected that it would be refreshing to read something that reminded me about how important family is. I think that if you were to shorten your entries a bit (i.e. not include every single detail of your day) it would be a bit more interesting to read and it would be easier to get your point across.

*Layout* (48/50) It's very...pink. Lucky for you I'm not B.W. (she despises pink with a passion). I'm a fan, myself. Anyway...it's pretty and it's pink. Seems very you. It's very organized,the text box is perfectly sized, and all your links seem to be in working order.

*Grammar and Spelling* (10/10) Yeah...you passed first grade, yay!

*Navigation* (15/15) It's all organized..back and forward buttons, archives are organized my months....full score here.

*Extras* (10/10) A bunch..cast, quizzes, bio, rings, reviews, and a "more" page that leads to a couple of links and review sites you run...nice.

*Updates* (5/10) A couple of entries a month...you skip around a lot: 2 entries in November of 2002, 15 or so entries in Sept. 2003, and 8 entries in May 2003 (for example).

*Befriend Me and Returnability* (2/5) Maybe..once in a while...not all the time though

*In Short* (170/200) Your diary wasn't my favorite, but it wasn't bad either. I told you in the *content* section that you should minimize the detailing..it is quite much. However, you do have a talent in what you do: you create a lot of good imagry in your writing and I like that. I liked that you were into your family and it even made me (a little) jealous to see that you had such a good relationship with them, I told you before and I'll say it again: I admire you for that. Keep writing and best of luck in the future.
