…like the snow I have fallen

Content: 37/40
Ahhh, I started with this since I always hate first entries, but the first few ones are important, and that was the most interesting one I saw there. Well, It was an interesting first one, I liked it actually, I’ve always liked those kind of things. It had a sadly happy context to it, and I liked how you ended it. Anyway! Many of your entries were either poetry/short stories. And that was definitely a new thing I’ve never seen on a diary.

Your entries are truly very interesting. Dark yes, and kind of well, sad. But I think it captures your personality very well, and although the recent ones have been getting a tad short, each one still has such meaning in it because of the words you chose. Like this one for example. I thought that was a sweet little one. Keep it up! (:

Literary style/grammar: 10/10
Ahh, this was a simple one, your command of English is quite good, and I’m very pleased to see you capitalizing where necessary and not excessively using vulgarities. (Which is my pet peeve). Your grammar is also pretty good, no errors anywhere I read.

Layout: 13/15
I love your layout. It is a little dark, but it suits you. And to me, that’s the most important thing about the layout. All the links fit in well, except for the site meter at the bottom of the page. Perhaps you could change the color or something? It is also a bit of the pity that the entry box covers a bit of your background image, I like the image behind, but well, it fits well like I said before. And I noticed you did it yourself? Great work!

Contact: 4/5
Profile, notes, e-mail, AIM, enough said. Though I suggest you put them all under one page and label it contact or something along that line.

Extras: 8/10
I think you are truly gifted with your poetry, it was a pleasure reading them! Interesting Quizzes too, glad to say it managed to keep me awake.

Etherealness: 13/15 points
It’s a refreshing change to see poetry in someone’s diary. That makes your diary much more than just a day-recorder, and I like that. I also really like the way you named your archives, a little confusing, but different from all those boring ‘January 2004’ kind of things. Great!

Will we return? 4/5 yes, to check up on how you’re doing.

Total: 89/100
