Username: [7/10 points] It has a nice ring to it. It really isn't anything special. It just kind of follows along with the rest.

First Impression: [10/20 points] It's really dark. Everything looks organized, but not too many links. I think I've seen this layout,or something similar to this layout, before.

Content: [50/55 points] The layout made me think this was going to be hell to read because I expected some suicidal, 13 year old girl. No offense to you, but that's usually what you get with a darker layout. I was deeply suprised after I began reading. I don't know how old you are, but it seems you've had your heart broken pretty horribly. You write in a very poetical way. I'm not sure if you consider what you write poetry, but it comes off that way. You have a few cliched, run-of-the-mill "crimson tears" entries here and there, but other than that I was thoroughly captivated with your writing. I read a lot of your entries [over 50] and I still want to read more. I would have continued if I hadn't gotten blurry-eyed from the computer screen. A couple of your more heart-felt entries made me want to cry. The second quote I added in the "quotes" section brought a sting to my eye. You have a great way of relaying what you're feeling to the person reading your diary. That's not a common trait and I think you should feel very proud that you can do that with such ease.

Layout: [30/40 points] Here. It really goes well with your writing. I'm not s big fan of "dark, gloomy" layouts, especially when it seems out of place, but yours goes really well with the way you express things and the personality of your diary. I like the way you use "&" to signify a link. Why doesn't the mail and AIM links have that in front too? Just curious. It took me a second for my eyes to focus on the image and figure out what it was, but that's probably just my fucked up vision. I rather like this layout. I don't think I normally would, but it just fits. I don't particularly like the "miserable, without you" text over the image. That seems a bit much. The dark blue font of the links is kind of hard on the eyes, too. You need to archive, but I'll ignore that, because it's not really that important.

Contact: [5/5 points] Notes. Email. AIM.

Personality: At first I thought "Oh, no, not another depressing cutter." After I read a couple of your entries I realized you weren't the typical do-it-for-attention kid. Your pain is real. Your heartache is real. You seem like a hopeless romantic to the core. That's why I liked reading a lot of the poetry, it may not be poetry to you, but it is to me. You seem very emotional and deal with it fairly well. I usually crack down on cutters and insult their very being, but you're real. You're not just some 14 year old girl following a trend, you don't write depressing poetry that no one can decode. You haven't given up hope either. Someone truly broke your heart and you are desperately trying to mend it.

Extras: [2/10 points] Add a note on main page. I hate to take points off here because I know extras don't really make a diary, but it is nice to know a few random facts about a person. Sorry, hon.

Am I linked: [0/5 points] Lo and behold, no.

Favorite entries: [25/25 points] Peas, Carrots, Bread, Butter.

Originality: [7/10 points.] I did run across a few cliches, but hey, everyone's a cliche.

Quotes:

I want you, but I don't want to want you.

Then you'll know what it's like to feel like you've just lost everything, because you lost more than your boyfriend, you lost more than a makeout buddy on Saturday nights or someone to tell you they love you before you go to sleep every night.

Most Memorable: The way you write and your undeniable broken heart.

Comments: You have a really great talent at writing and letting your emotions out. I enjoyed reading your diary. I don't say that about too may people [and mean it], but I can honestly say I mean it with you. Smile, angel, boys are cruel.

Would I come back: [20/20 points] Hell, I would build a house right by your diary just so I would never miss a word. Of course I'll be back!

Total: [156/200]
