Username: I suppose it’s a bit obvious what I’m going to say here – I like it… I’m not sure how much it reflects you, what with you being with your fiancé and so therefore not alone… but it’s good… As I said before it makes me want to click on your name – Pretty decent choice! (5/5)

Title: This is the same as it was when I did the last review of your diary – it’s good, it fits… I’d probably keep it, I’m not sure it jumps out at me – but it has a nice sentiment about it, and I’m in the right kind of mood to appreciate it! (5/5)

First Sight: Well I instantly remembered your diary when I clicked on your name – so perhaps that’s good and it means it is memorable. No music this time – so my music remained uninterrupted – which was brilliant, I’m glad you changed that, much better! The design doesn’t seem to of changed much – to be honest – it’s one of those designs that I like, but it just doesn’t jump out at me… (8/10)

Your Sacrifice: Just as and when you want to write… to be honest I’m more accepting of that now – people don’t really have time to write every single day… On your archives page I’d consider reducing the font size of the entry title and/or increase the date size… Just a thought I think it’ll improve how it looks. (6/8)

Sparkling Diamond: Well, you said you made significant changes to your diary – but from what I can see and vaguely remember – the design perhaps isn’t one of those changes? I’m not going to go into as much detail then, as – well you’ve heard it mostly before. I’m glad the music is gone, but I do still think there are a lot of links. I’m not really as distracted by them this time though – so perhaps they’ve been cut down, maybe not though – I’m kind of fickle! I like that it’s organised, links aren’t just dotted here there and everywhere – there is a pattern to it. I’m still keen on the colours, but this whole design – despite being personal and with a nice sentiment, not to mention original – lacks something that makes it riveting.

It’s all very nice, but – where’s the ‘wow, this looks good’ ? It’s hard to get that kind of reaction though so I’m not docking loads of points – but if you look at your diary – what stands out to you?

However I love the quote with the photo, and the blurry picture is cute – hey, it’s your diary – and on the positive side – it wouldn’t get confused with anyone elses. (22/25)

Guestbook: Same black and white… Clear – easy to read – but boring. (1/2)

Readability: Again, it hasn’t changed… All basically clear… When looking back at your diary, I think a larger font would look stupid for your actual entries – but there is no hiding the fact that it’s a small font… But logically – how can I deduct points when I’ve said don’t change it?! (5/5)

The Love: It really didn’t take me very long to read the entries that I hadn’t before, and there was little point for me to go back and re-read the entries that obviously I didn’t hugely enjoy last time I reviewed… So I’m more or less just reviewing a few months worth of entries. You obviously already know that most of your entries are quite short – some even just a line, and then there’s another week before you update again. Sometimes this worked really well, and it was dramatic – and truly touching, for example. this was beautiful. Really nice, and it’s clear how much you are in love… It really seems to be working out for you so that’s brilliant. However sometimes I thought the one line entries were a bit pointless, if you have nothing to say - don’t bother updating - there’s little reason to.

Your entries were still a little bit bumpy to follow, one minute you’re in love and happy - the next you’re feeling mixed and not sure if you really want to write an entry. However I suppose that is how life is, so I can’t complain too much about it. I must say that you sound a lot happier now, and Jeff seems to of done you a lot of good - you’re a lot brighter and certainly more positive in your more recent entries.

Lovely to hear you’re getting married, and all the details of it were in this entry. I was a little surprised, but hey - hope it all works out for you… 4th December 2004 right? Lovely, but a bit cold huh! Maybe not though. Wish you all the luck with that.

Oh, and I was glad to hear that you might be changing your design - I would of rather reviewed your diary after you changed it - but - it doesn’t matter… Leave a note here or on my diary when/if you change it - I’d be interested to see it.

Overall your diary now consists of just you talking about how in love you are with jeff, which although is sweet, and very nice to read - does get a little tiring… But I’m biased, I enjoy reading that kind of thing because I’m in a similar situation. I think that you do write with a lot of emotion - and you do express yourself clearly and it certainly isn’t a boring read - it’s just not fantastic either… You definitely don’t seem like you’re just writing for yourself… Just because you know other people are reading your diary - don’t say things just for the sake of it - I think you need to think more about what you personally need to say.

I’m not sure if keeping a diary is such a big deal to you anymore – just because you don’t seem to be making as big an effort as you perhaps once did – but that’s fine – everyone gets times in their lives where they get busy actually living rather then reporting how you live…

I like your diary a lot more then I did – I’m not sure if it’s because you’ve hugely changed (I don’t think you have…) or if it’s just my mood – I’m quite mellow today… However it was a pleasant enough read – again I say – not fantastically relevant to me, but it was nice – and I liked seeing someone happy, which you certainly seem to be, and who wouldn’t be with a ring like this - it’s real pretty… and I’m only a tiny bit jealous!!

Okay - to conclude - your diary is better in my eyes - I think your entries are now happy, heartfelt - and you just seem so in love - it makes your diary almost endearing - I was a bit harsh last review - but in all fairness your older entries weren’t nearly as good… I’m at a bit of a loss as to what exactly changed hugely about your diary - and why you wanted a re-review… From what I can note - you’ve taken away the music, and now you’re happy and with a guy worth your time! But other then that it’s the same style of writing… However you are getting a lot higher points so something must of altered or I wouldn’t of enjoyed reading it - which I did. I still don’t think I have a huge amount in common with you - but it didn’t matter this time… I do hope you write a bit more and get back into writing a diary - looks like this next year is going to be very eventful for you - and will need recording. Thanks for re-requesting me… a lovely surprise to see how things have been going for you these past few months. (40/50)

Grammar: Lots of abbreviations that I find more annoying then I used to… But nothing hugely terrible… but I’d really reconsider using ‘Imma’ in a sentence… eugh!! (6/10)

Glitter: You’ve got a few bits and pieces – I’d seriously recommend you updating your Cast page!!! Other then that you have reviews, quotes, an about me page etc– all okay… I’m not sure if you’ve added anything since last time – if you have – it’s not amazing enough for it to stand out to me… Your picture link doesn’t work, not sure if it’s just me – but it didn’t… otherwise all seems okay. (9/15)

Extra Credit: You’ve improved so much, in terms of keeping my interest this time I think it warrants 2 points. (2/5)

Lasting Impression: You have one of those diaries that when I see again – I say ‘Oh yeah, I remember’ – but if someone just said your name I wouldn’t have a clue… So make of that what you will. I think it’ll stick in my head for a bit – and it’ll be positive thoughts… just not sure how long I’ll really keep it in mind. (6/10)

Will I Come Back?: Perhaps in a few months time to see how things are… but certainly not regularly – it’s more of a curiousity thing – I wonder how will things be going with Jeff, if the wedding is still on the 4th December … that sort of thing rather then ‘Oh my god!!! How is she?!?!’ … (8/10)

Total: 123/160

Number of Entries Read: I started just around September, I’ve read the earlier entries so there seemed little point in going back over them again, but I needed a few weeks worth of entries to recap.

Favorite Entry:This was pretty sweet. Though I felt like I was intruding when I read it.

Favorite Quote: "He's so great to me. He treats me like a princess or something. It's great. I love him so much."

Comments: I’m not sure how much you really changed – as I said before – so I’m a little confused at the re-review request, however, you seem to of done a lot better this time – so either I’m in a much better mood or you’re a lot more fun when you’re happy! Either is entirely possible. Nice to see how you’ve been doing – Hope you have a great Christmas, though I’m sure next year it’ll be even better!
