starving from laziness | Happy Summer

First Impression= [3/5]

Man, that's plain.

Layout= [8/30]

There's just something about it that's just so plain. Two colors - white, and this greenish-gray. The title is just stuck up there in boring Tahoma, and the two little images aren't nearly big enough to make a distinct impression to the layout.

There isn't enough space between your borders and your text, which makes your text hard to read at times. Your font is strange and much too small.

Likes

Nothing, really. The double navigation bars on the top and bottom are a nice touch, but they'd be better if they were even (you have an extra link in your bottom one.)

Dislikes

Just about everything. The font color. It's not very eye-appealing. The font size. Too small. The fact that the layout is too plain to be attractive.

Content= [17/20]

I found that usually you use capitalization and mostly proper punctuation, and since you're 15 it doesn't bother me if you forget to capitalize once and a while.

"I passed my driver's test today, meaning in September I can get my license." Don't you get your driver's license once you pass? I did. Maybe that's a difference from where I live to where you live.

I think it's sweet how you tucked your mom in. Helps you remember what it was like to be younger, doesn't it?

You're right, the only thing you can do is wait. It sucks monkeys, but it's a part of life. I wish the best for you though, and I know how much it sucks to go through summer without a summer love.

This was a good entry, and thankfully the first one I read that wasn't extremely short. More of your entries should be like this one.

Another good entry.

Through the month of July, I've noticed that you've definitely grown as a diarist. If you continue to grow and elaborate more on your thoughts and feelings, you'll turn into quite a captivating read.

Where's the link= [0/5]

I have no idea. After a five minute manhunt, still no idea.

Errors= [1/5]

Your profile says you have 54 entries. However, when I went to your archives page, I counted just 14. What happened to the rest of them? Did you archive and forget to stick that neat little code onto the archives page? If so, e-mail me and I can help you with that.

Also, you have an extra link on your bottom nav bar.

And your rings page doesn't exist.

And neither does your guestbook.

Contact= [3/4]

Guestbook, e-mail, AIM on profile.

Organization= [8/10]

Except for the extra link on the bottom nav bar (which is starting to bug me, by the way), you're all clear.

Updates= [5/10]

One two, skip a few, a couple days pass and you write again.

Bonus= [1/5]

None on the template. I see you have a survey and a cast page thrown in on your July archives, and for that I'll give you a point.

Will I be coming back?= [2/6]

No, I don't think I will.

What I thought of the diary?

You're growing the more you write. The more you write and the more you make yourself write, you'll become a much better writer.

Number of entries read= July

Total: 48/100 This score has nothing to do with your writing style. It's the template, and the other little things that brought down the total. You have no extras, a lot of errors, and you don't update with any kind of frequency. Also, I was missing the link to USA Reviews. I'd really love to give you a higher score, and if you fix things up, in 30 days you can request a re-review.
