I hate how I have to scroll to see everything that's going on with this layout. All that scrolling gets a little tiring. Your layout is yellow, with some guy that I'm not familliar with hanging around in there as well. I'm not too fond of celebrity layouts, though. Also, your scroll bars are all one color, and this was a little bit of a nuisance at times as well. But aside from a few minor quirks, your layout isn't that bad.

You know politics, which is great, because so few people seem to really care about these things around Diaryland. You're intelligent, which is fabulous, because I do tend to favor those who aren't incredibly stupid.

You daylog a lot, and it tends to get boring at times. You throw flights of emotion and detail into it as well, though, which saves your content more often than not from being horribly droll. It makes me laugh that you wanted to replace your family with that of a roommate. You talk a lot about movie star men, and this gets a little tedious after a while. I liked reading your thoughts here. Your content can be very underwhelming at times, because you talk mainly about basic, day-to-day things. On the occasions that you do go deep and voice your thoughts and opinions, I absolutely love it. You're a very articulate person, and I think many of your thoughts and ideas are quite brilliant. You talk about things that matter to you, which is nice, but your diary does get boring in some instances.

More depth would be nice, rather than sticking to day-to-day things. I understand that when you're a student, there isn't a lot to talk about other than day-to-day things, but still, I think you're just scratching the surface in many of your entries. As I've said, you have a lot of potential to be fascinating.

This was a hard one to grade, but I give it an 84 (C+).
