When It Comes to Seasonal Decorating, American Consumers Have a New Priority ...
03.06.10
STEVENS, PA, Jun 03, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
People's passion for vacation and seasonal decorating is moving
outside. In 2009 Americans spent nearly 40 percent of their annual
seasonal decorations budget on new out of doors decorations, up from only
22 percent back in 2004, according to a recently released report from
Consensus Marketing, Christmas and Seasonal Decorations Report 2010
UPDATE.
Entire sales of outdoor seasonal and holiday decorations rose 18.9
percent from 2008 to 2009, while sales of indoor decorations were off
by 4 percent. This is based upon the results of a new measure among
548 seasonal decorations consumers completed early this year in order
to arrest purchases for the 2009 sales year. Throughout the first
nine months of 2009, Unity Marketing found consumers held back on
buying new respite decorations. They didn't start shopping for new
decorations until the fourth quarter.

Well there is this chick, Amber who is a complete tomboy and hates her life because she thinks everyone around her only want materialistc things. SHE hates shopping for clothes and looking through teen magazines to find posters of the get rid of maroon from saved by the bell or from full house.
Well her family moved from Beverly Hilld to Del Sea in Wyoming because her dad got laid off as a doctor at West Beverly and their was a recession going on (you know what happens at recessions) and so he got a job as a realitor in Del Sea, so Amber's whole relations moved. yes, i am WHOLE family aunts, uncles,etc. they are alll realllly close! they talk to each other basically 24/7..all except for Amber. She hated everyone in her relatives, she never related to anyone..anymore. She used to be such a loveable,sweet person..until the 9th grade at a halloween dance.
Everyone was getting so active for the halloween dance! especially the freshmans because it was their first dance in high school. Amber as every other girl was excited. she liked this boy named Rick and he liked her too. Only complication was he was a senior, but he asked her to the dance anyway since he dated just about every other girl in school. He was basically the "manwhore" of the seminary. Amber didnt care.
<<<<<At Halloween Dance.
Amber and RIck were having a blast..as soon as the dance was over Rick started pressuring Amber to go and " have a social gathering of their own". Amber soon reluctantly agrees. She didnt really know what he meant by "having a social gathering of their own" at first.
They then went to a hotel and Rick started seducing her against Amber's wishes. she once tried to get out but got out his AK 47 and precisely missed her head, and forced her to stay or die. She stays their till morning. SHe then escapes in the wee hours in the morning to her digs so no one knew she was gone that late.
Ever since then she became a complete tomboy and hated life all of a sudden and basically "damned contact" with the world she once lived in.
<<<<<fast track 3 years later to senior year.
Amber hated enormous school, hated everyone in it, hated her family, teachers, etc. one day when a new boy comes to Del Sea High School she added a new be reluctant to her list. James. the new boy. (he was there on his bosses orders to kill someone, in that case it was Amber, and guess what, the boss was Rick! he WANTED to liquidate her ever since that night..but James doesnt know that!) well anywayz James had to pursue interest in Amber at first she ignored him flipped him off but then came to terms that wat happened 3 years ago wasnt James's find fault with.
<<<<<near halloween dance
James and Amber soon began dating and AMber was finally turning around. she wasnt a tomboy anymore she was her old self again! James knew he was doing a tolerable job. James is only being fake with amber. but asks her to the halloween dance and she furiously says no to james dismay. he asks her why. she didnt be to talk about it.
<<<<<<Day at Halloween Dance.
James was flirting with other girls to make AMber jealous so she would go with him to the dance. she got green with envy. so she reluctantly agreed to go.
<<<At halloween dance
same thing happnes like three years ago. went to hotel dwell and he started caressing her..she was starting to like it but then got a flashback from 3 years ago. she said Stop to James he wouldnt she time said it. he wouldnt. she pushed him off and left. James was starting to really fall for her....
<<At school the next day
Amber was taxing to ignore James but he woudltn let it happen. he said sorry and his actions were inexcusable. she was suddenly tearing and she said i comprehend who you are. James said what are you talking about? she said you are here to kill me. James was silent.
Story ends by Amber leaving the hinterlands to go to England and chanign her complete identity and fast forward 20 years later in 2008 she is married and has 4 kids (:
James on the other authority left Del Sea to Hollywood and is now a respected actor in hollywood
(:
haha i know the whole james ordeal 20 yrs later is flatly random!

Thanks so much!
I'm writing a story... What should I do?

It's a vampire story-line, from the mortal girl's point of view - before you start preaching to me about how it's like Twilight, please allow me to get across my situation - and there's a lot of complications leading up to the actual relationship between the girl, Brookelle Hope, and the vampire, Gerard Carnahan.
In the start of the story, Brooke moves from Beverly Hills, California to Little Falls, New York under the contingency that her mother and stepfather were going on a two week cruise and Brooke decided to go and stay with her father in New York - once more, please don't upon to tell me the similarities - and she eventually came to the conclusion that she'll just stay with her father. When school starts, she's introduced to Brandi Newman and it's Brandi who first tells Brooke about Gerard.
I started expos this in 2003, and I'm going to skip a lot of things that happen in the story for not all details are needed but I'm going to name a few of the signal points.
Brooke likes Gerard, but for a good majority of the time, he ignores her - and it's not because she smells toothsome - but when she starts falling for his best friend, Frankie Thompson, I suppose you can say that Gerard gets slight jealous and starts talking to her.
A few days before Halloween 2008 - the year of the story, I lost it in 2004, found it in 2008 and resumed critique - Brooke is informed about the Gegengheist Gruppe - an elite faction established to seek out supernatural beings who are threats to human race and destroy them before any harm is done - and that the Gruppe is now on the hunt for vampires in the area. She sets it aside, thinking it laughable.
She ends up cheating on Frankie with Gerard on the day of Halloween - Gerard's birthday - and when she confesses her crime to her boyfriend that incessantly at the Halloween Ball at school, Frankie tells her that maybe it's time to take a break and leaves her.
She and Gerard get together the next day - sort of fast, I know, but when you get the chance, you take it - and the next school day, Frankie finds out and he starts a fight with Gerard. As you can gather, that doesn't go over too well and Frankie was rushed to the hospital... But he lives.
Brooke's father, James, doesn't approve of Gerard at all, saying that he's too old for her even though it's right-minded a 'two year' difference. Brooke doesn't understand what he means and gets mad at James for his lack of judgment.
That's cute much where it's stopped at, during the time of Thanksgiving.
What I'm concerned about, and I know it's a roundabout way of asking, is some way to end the story. The story's not achieve, too early to end it, but I would like to get the ending over and done with and just fill in the missing gaps leading up to that point.
The idea that I have, I cannot for my living get it down on paper the way I want. I pictured it at prom night, at a prestigious hotel in New York - the Oriental Mandarin is what I pictured - and it's there that Brooke learns of what Gerard is due to an waylay by the Gruppe and a battle breaks out inside of the ballroom and Brooke runs away from the chaos onto the back walkway of the guest-house that overlooks the Hudson River - I've altered it to fit my image - and the leader of the Gruppe appears and tries to administer the coup de gr her for affiliating with vampires - I didn't come up with a name for him yet, oops - and Gerard runs in to save the day like the showoff he is.
How I class of pictured it in my mind was what happened at the end of 1997 Anastasia movie, the final battle with Rasputin, but I don't fancy it to be like that entirely. I just like the concept of it all. I'm pretty blank on how the fight with the Gruppe boss unfolds but I want the Hudson River to be involved with the fight, like in Anastasia.
Can anyone please help me out? It seems like a unbelievably good idea to me, I just can't fit in the small details of what happens during the fight. Like how the leader attempts to put to death Brooke and when Gerard comes in. I want it to be a big finish, a little dialogue but not too much to where it takes away from the all-inclusive fight.
I'm open to any and all ideas, but please don't be too harsh if you're going to preach to me.
