So every now and than I'll start looking into something. Once there was the Scottish Wars of Independence (that was fun), I've also gone into the Japanese language (specifically transliteration and how they have like 3 different alphabets) and tons of other things. Some times it's just because, and other times it's for one the like 6 different stories swirling around in my head. Recently I needed Gaulish names for one of these stories. (if you don't know who the Gauls were than here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauls) So I google "Gaulish Names" and got this en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Categor… (I was looking for a male character). This was pitiful obviously, and in fact there are names we know of that aren't on here, the names of several clan leaders. But in clicking on the links to the names provided I did fined something interesting. First off the names meant things! I love it when that happens! And also, all the words are derived from a language called Proto-Celtic. GOOD FUCKING GOD PROTO-CELTIC. In looking up Proto-Celtic I found that it's in ongoing reconstruction, meaning scientists are currently, well, reconstructing it! Cool! But Proto-Celtic, is not cool. It's fucking confusing is what it is! Look at this! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proto-Ce… This would seem to be some advanced linguistics shit to me and none of it makes any sense. Also here's a word list of a lot of the Proto-Celtic that has been reconstructed www.wales.ac.uk/Resources/Docu… there's a lot I know and it's also rather confusing. Why are there a million words for pot? That can't be right!
Oh hay look at this! en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Categor… Awesome! I literally just found this now while finding those pages again to get the links! Cool! Have to look at this.
But yeah, what I ended up doing with those Gaulish names was writing down the words the names were made up of and what they meant. They sound pretty cool on there own and I could totally use them. I'm going to go look at these Proto-Celtic names now! See ya!

JESUS CROIST It's been a while
I'm 17 now, got accepted into Towson University (that's a collodge if it wasn't obvious), a second girlfriend has come and gone, so yeah. Stuff has happened in my life. It's been way to long.
ALSO, like, everything I've uploaded sucks, I'm going to try and change that and put up some stuff I know is good or at least decent. Also I'm going to completely revamp my profile info because I'm 17 now but that's still 14 year old me so yeah.
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Ect.
Summer is slow, but I like it.
Not much has been going on. I hung up that rough draft I was talking about I the last journal for the summer. I'm trying to get a D&D campaign rolling, the one guy backed out, asshole. But I have found a replacement so that's good. Other than that not much going on, other than I hurt my foot because I kicked a brick without shoes on. It's not serious by any means but yeah, it was about a dumb as it sounds, oh well. Hopefully next time I write one of these I'll have something more interesting to say.
WAIT! I do have something. I'm taking Guitar lessons. Because I have a guitar. I don't think I've talked about that on here yet, o well. But
Vivaciously
I've been writing a rough draft for the book I want to make first. It's going well. I gave part of it to my english teacher (who is supportive of my chosen career) for him to check out. Still waiting for him to read it, he's a pretty busy guy., but I will say something here when that happens. Also the school year is almost over, I'm going to try and get out this summer, meet some girls, maybe make some stupid fuckin' desisions. Probably won't be drinkin' though. I can't stand the taste of alcohol (I have seriously tried a vary vary vary light alcohol an the taste was still overwhelmingly disgusting and bitter and just horrible), which is prob
It's my Birthday!
I'm 17 now! It's still sinking in. My party is going to be on the 14th, I'm roping a few of my friends into playing D&D. When I say roping them in I mean I haven't told them what we're doing so that they have no choice. I'm sure well all have fun though. Kinda hoping they actually like it enough that they can be my D&D buddies, but even if they don't o well, well still have fun. I made some simple level 1 characters for them and cooked up a quick little dungeon. Because they aren't doing this of their own will I don't expect any real character role playing. It'll be fun combat encounters with a treasure hoard at the end, also there's
