To GG Readers,
Carmen is patiently awaiting the arrival of Classy and Cool~
Hiya everyone! I am back this week with another chapter of Gorgeous Geek! Chapter 69 (Thank you so much Paul for your editting~) is out much later than I intended because somehow, I managed to get myself a life and had gone out for parties/outings/other stuff from Thursday to Sunday. Oh Halloween weekend! Anyways, at the moment, it is still uncertain whether Gorgeous Geek will have a sequel or not, depending on where I want to end the story. I am hoping to finish the entire story by the next twenty/thirty chapters. It doesn’t look possible does it? Like I said before, after Sunday, the time within the story should move by quickly. In other words, it won’t be going day by day anymore. I can’t believe I took nearly 70 chapters to get through the first important five weeks. Oh well~ Whether or not there’ll be a sequel to Gorgeous Geek, the next story in the workings is Classy and Cool.
Classy and Cool will be taking place in a separate universe from both Gorgeous Geek and Spirits. Unlike Spirits and like Gorgeous Geek, it will be modern time setting aka with computers/television/cars. Classy and Cool will be the first time I’m working with a smaller cast too. There is around five major characters and that’s about it. I’m working with my C & C characters right now. I don’t want them to be too similar to any other characters I have so far (around 300 chars I believe?), but it’s hard. They’re all archetypes at the moment. I’ll expand them later. 
Besides Classy and Cool, I have another story idea in the working but neither of them have progressed much from just an idea.
Mandatory Minnie Rant: I don’t follow Naruto and I don’t intend to follow Naruto any time soon, but the latest confession chapter from Sakura to Naruto PISSED ME OFF. Yes, it totally deserved caps and everything. Wait a second. I should clarify what I mean. SAKURA PISSED ME OFF. If you’re going to confess, confess like a normal person. WHY DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT SOUND SO PITIFUL????????????????????????? My God. Can this girl do anything right? Ever? If I’m going to confess to someone, I’m not going to say like “I never loved and noticed you before. Instead, I loved this emo jerk, but it doesn’t matter anymore because I love you now. You’re a great hero and will become Hokage one day, unlike that guy I loved so much, who is now trying to kill everyone. All in all, just forget that promise we made three years ago in which you wasted all that time on and get hitched okay? OKAY!” Sakura, it is thanks to female characters like you that make me want to hit my head against the nearest wall and curse all female characters in manga/anime to death. >_> Thanks to this chapter, you have made me a Hinata/Naruto fan. I don’t care if it’s one-sided. I don’t care if Hinata is one of the most useless characters in existence. ANY OTHER GIRL WITH NARUTO IS BETTER THAN YOU >________________________> Oh, and just to make this not totally a hate rant, I applaud Naruto for what he said at the end of the chapter. Naruto, you have officially gained my respect.
The girl, not the boy~
On lighter news, for all those who haven’t watched Kimi ni Todoke that is currently airing, you should. Why? Because it is by far the best show of the fall season for being simple, endearing, and emotional and best of all, one of my favorite manga heroines is finally animated <3 If I hadn’t done the fav char countdown already for HSA, she would be right about here:
Sheryl Nome from Macross Frontier
Kyoko Mogami from Skip Beat
Nanami Takahashi from Bokura ga Ita
Sawako <3 from Kimi ni Todoke
CC from Code Geass
Nodame from Nodame Cantabile
Kagami from Lucky Star
Haruhi Fujioka from Ouran High School Host Club
Ran Kotobuki from Super GALS
Haruhi Suzumiya from Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Sunako from Wallflower
Ami from ToraDora!
Tomoyo from CLANNAD

Hello Minnie,
Totally off-topic: For the record, I never liked Sakura. She’s a pitiful character that doesn’t even match to 70% of yours. I feel more for Victoria in one chapter than I ever felt for Sakura. Just saying. She’s not worth your time Minnie.
On-topic: After this chapter, I’ll be pleasantly surprised if Kristian’s popularity doesn’t drop and Tristan’s doesn’t increase. For once, I can’t wait for the other Pimp Juice boys’ stories.
This chapter is worth the wait. The KrisRin pair is no more. I like how you handled those two. I can walk away from the pairing with mixed feelings. As for the rest of the chapter, besides the Tristan bits, Jin/Rin/Jordan combo ftw. I love how Rin wants JorJin and Jin wants JoRin. The separation of one letter makes all the difference I say. Those three are so cute together. I want more Jin/Rin/Jordan scenes! The JezJin at the end is so cute too (minus Jezebelle’s scheming ways xD).
Rin’s single again. What will happen now? Will she remain single for the rest of the story? Will she get together with one of the other members of her harem? Rin, I’m sorry but all your fans will be fighting for your shipping again.
Go Vance and Jordan. I’ll be pleasantly surprised if she doesn’t get together with Jordan at this point though… Good chapter Minnie. Update soon.

P.S. Sawako is the most lovely shoujo heroine ever. Enough said.

Hello again~
Wonderful chapter, I love all the cute Jin/Jordan moments…oh and Rin was there too, I suppose that counts for something. I have said it before and I’ll say it again now, I very much approve of how you handled the whole Kristian/Rin issue, cute couple or no. I secretly suspect that after Rin gets a “boyfriend” Kristian will become mad jealous to the point where he does something stupid enough that will chain into a series of events that will lead to them getting back together. Thus is my secret suspicion revealed.
Oh and I agree with Steve about Tristan’s popularity relative to Kristian’s. I’m more than certain a certain portion of the populace will want his…cherries impaled and left out to dry. As for Jez and Jin, as always, wonderfully cute – and in Jez’s case wonderfully evil. I love Jez’s evil, it makes me feel all warm and tingly inside.
Be that as it may, I look forward on how things progress, and how Jez plans on “catching up” to Rin. Going to be one of the best plans ever, in my opinion.
Good Job and Good Luck
