That's not bad. I made a few minor edits so it made more sense, and because some of the stuff you suggested Reese didn't actually know about, but other than that, it's good. David better dig out his journal template and get publishing!

Thanks! I saw you got rid of the part with "Life is unfair" and it said "Where have I heard that before?". It meant to be sort of mentioning, Boss Of Me, if you know what I mean. Do you mind if I fix that?:D It's really not a big deal, though! But thanks for the compliments!:)

I got rid of a few things that seemed like Reese was writing in a TV show rather than writing as a normal, average teen. Normal, average teens woudln't be worried about their journals being posted on a fansite.

Thanks for the compliments Yardgames and CJman327! Yours was good too CJ. I love to write and this was a lot of fun so maybe I'll try another. That is, if J. is in the mood for more kindness. :) Is there a list somewhere of the one's that have already been done, or shall I just scan through this thread?

There used to be a list, but I don't think it's up to date anymore. :D Unfortunately, this has really sort of turned into a neglected project. Maybe David still has something though, I guess I need to try a little harder to make him view this thread, he's probably still trying to get caught up. :)

Are you going to add the new ones?

Not for a while, I no longer have those templates available for use, I am going to try and find away for you to all upload them easily and for them to then be converted into something flash! :D

You'll all be pleased to know that I have now almost completed the creation of a fully automated journal site.

http://journals.malcolminthemiddle.co.uk/index.php?id=1

Currently there are probably still many problems with it, graphical and script. I am aware that it doesn't look great in the 800x600 resolution.

I have finished pictures for Malcolm, but it does take some time, so if you like it I will continue. :D

The site allows users to submit new journals and add pictures etc. To do this I will PM you a username and password for the manager section of the site. The username you will be given will only be programmed to work with one character and will not permit you to edit others work.

Huh, interesting. Although the interface might become a little cumbersome if we get lots of entries. But it's nice to have an automated way to do it. Good job David.

If there is a point where we have too many, I'll create season sub catergories for each character.

I really like the new Journal site David! :) It's nice to have them all in one place and it looks great! Are you going to link it from the episode guide or somewhere? I think we should get this project going again because the journals on the official site suck ever since they went to third person. I was bored so I made another one for Reese.

Reese’s Apartment

(Reese)

I’m in so much trouble right now. I think mom’s going to ground me forever for this one. Personally, I don’t see what the big deal is. I think credit cards are awesome! These companies give you a card and tell you how much money you’re allowed to spend. Then you can go out and buy whatever you want even if you don’t have any money to pay for it. It’s like having a huge wad of cash in your pocket all the time! The only thing you have to do is make a small payment every month until you pay it all back. They don’t even care how long it takes you to pay it back. You can take as long as you want! You just have to send in a few bucks every month to make them happy. It sounds like a sweet deal to me. I don’t know what mom is so upset about. She keeps talking about something called “interest,” but I don’t get it. Maybe I’ll ask Malcolm about it later. He knows about that kind of crap. Besides, I only owe 11 grand. That’s way below my 20 grand limit so I think I did pretty good. I mean, I had to buy and all new clothes every time mine got dirty. Then there were a few other things that I really needed like that gong for the bathroom. What did they expect?

I guess I wouldn’t be in this mess if I hadn’t told Mom and Dad to shut up, but I was tired from work and they kept going on and on about how I…hmmm…maybe I shouldn’t write it down. If the wrong person saw this they might use it as evidence against me or something. They kept yelling at me about that…thing I did…and I was sick of hearing it so I told them to shut up. That’s never a good thing to say around our house. They kicked me out. I guess they thought I was going sleep behind the garage and eat cat food like I usually do. That may have worked in the past, but I have a job now so I had other options this time

I found this apartment that was fully furnished and everything. I had to lie about my age to get it, but oh well. It was so awesome! I could cook what I wanted, watch what I wanted on TV, and do what I wanted whenever I wanted to do it…what could possibly be better than that? I invited Malcolm, Dewey and Francis over for breakfast after I moved in. Malcolm and Dewey really liked my place too, but Francis kept flipping because he was mad about Mom and Dad kicking me out. I don’t know what the hell his problem was. I think he’s still pissed because they sent him to military school. My life was good for a change so I was glad they kicked me out. I couldn’t get him to understand that though.

My neighbors—Teddy, Lou and George—were cool guys, but they sorta got on my nerves after few days cause they always wanted me to hang out. Funny thing is, I started to feel like I should be more responsible. I did all my homework, studied for tests and still went to work everyday. I even got an A (for the first time in my whole life) on a chemistry test. I didn’t want to party all the time. It was so strange! I couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me. I just had this feeling that I should do those things. Now that I’m home, I’m starting to feel normal again. At least that’s one good thing about being here. Responsibility makes my brain hurt.

I’m home again because Mom and Dad decided to drop in for a visit. Things went great at first. They were so impressed that they told me I should keep living there. That was before they heard me talking to the credit card company on the phone. I really screwed up…I should’ve waited till they left before I called, but I was pumped about my new card that came in the mail. Mom was totally pissed when she found out I was using plastic to pay for everything. I still don’t get what the big deal is. After that, she made me come back home…well, it was more like she dragged me home by my ear. It’s still sore too. She’s been thinking up new ways to punish me for days now so it looks like I won’t be getting outta here again anytime soon. It was sweet while it lasted though!

I've added that one now as well. I will try and give you, J., yardgames, Dewey and Amigo22 usernames and passwords as soon as possible - so you can go in and start putting them in yourself. Although the pictures are more difficult you can simply leave them out and I'll place them in at a later stage.

Great journal entry for Jamie, Samboo. It sounds exactly like what he was probably thinking. You should start doing him on a regular basis.
