Part 1 Written by l0v3d

It was approaching midnight as Roxana (RoxyBabe311) and Olivia(swtLivvie) instant messaged each other.
RoxyBabe311: soo wut r u doin?
swtLivvie: n2m.. u?
RoxyBabe311: same 'ere...juss watchin the nite news..anywayz theres nothing on..

The tv screen flashed and there was a news report about a killer who escaped from jail. He was described as last seen: around 6'4 -6'6 wearing a long black robe with a white ghost mask and a hood. The report was inturrupted by another saying that 3 police officers were found dead around 340 Elm. St. A note stuck to on of their backs with a knife saying: You won't find me! in blood letters.

swtLivvie: ROX! HEY ROX!
RoxyBabe311: ohh..sorry theres a really creepy newsreport on..
swtLivvie: oh really? TELL!
RoxyBabe311: well theres a killer on the loose and they just found 3 police officers dead =-O and there was a note
swtLivvie: :'(
RoxyBabe311: Olivia come on!! u dont actually beleive this guyz gonna march up and do that exact same thing 2 u!
swtLivvie: its possible..
[just then Roxana hears something in her closet]
RoxyBabe311: brb Liv, sumthing fell in my closet, imma go check it out..
swtLivvie: OOOHHH its da killer!!!!
RoxyBabe311: sure...

Roxana walks up to her closet and reaches for the doorknob, just when she was about to touch it, the door opened. A strange man fitting the killer's description jumped out of the closet. Roxana screamed so loud, enough to wake the whole house. She dashed to the computer and alerted Olivia.

RoxyBabe311: LIVVIE ITS HIM!! HELP!! CALL 911!!
swtLivvie: huh? r u serious? =-O
RoxyBabe311: YEAH hurry up PLEASE!!!
swtLivvie: ok what does he look like?
RoxyBabe311 has signed off at 01:24:04

Roxana's mother came into Roxana's bedroom (highest flight of stairs up) and let out a blood curdling scream. Roxana had been murdered. Right then and there.

Somebody had rested their hand on Roxana's mothers shoulder. She turned around and let out another scream. ??? ?????? was behind her getting ready to...

Written by sexyeyes51005

Someone was behind her getting ready to stab her when she turned around and was saved right in time. Roxana's dad ran up the stairs and saw his murdered daughter on the floor and his wife shaken. There was a note by Roxana's body. Roxana's mom stood there and shook as she read the last word.

It was the killer's She screamed at her husband. It was him, he killed our daughter! The room was quiet and so was the night. This was scaring Roxana's mother. She screamed again as she saw the killer in the window. He did an evil smile and left. Roxana's mother called 911. When the police got to the scene of the crime, they took some pictures and interviewed neighbors to see if they saw anything. Olivia came over and was crying.

Is Roxana all right? She asked, she shivered as she heard the news. She knew it was true even though she was hoping it wasn't. She fell to the floor and cried. She knew there wasn't anything she could've done to save Roxana's life, but she felt so guilty. Roxana told me the killer was in the house and then she all of a sudden logged off. I thought I would come over here to see if it was a practical joke.

â??No sweetie, it wasn't, he was in the house. She let out this scream that would've curled your hair and I got up here as soon as I could. Roxana' mom said. I saw him outside her window before he left. Olivia looked at Roxana's dad he was so distant. She didn't know what to do now. She had just found out her best friend was dead. Olivia walked home a couple of hours later, after the family had calmed down a little. She was thinking about Roxana and what she must have been thinking in her last moments on earth. Then suddenly she saw a shadow, she started to run. But then she saw it was a cat and she let out a sigh of relief.

Olivia quit being silly, what happened to Roxana won't happen to you. She said to herself. Go home and relax Olivia and take your mind off what is going on. Suddenly there was a cold hand on her shoulder.

I've been waiting for you.

Celebrity Gossip

From Jennaberry
Laguna Beach Gossip
Yeah ok Talan from Laguna Beach droped out of School his senior year and hes living in L.A. trying to become an actor, thats how he met Lindsay Lohan . Now i havent talked to him in a little while so the whole dateing thing im not sure about but i do know that they know each other and are friends. Kristin and Steven are not together either but i can't say wether or not L.C. and Stevan are together. Also No one from the show was hurt during the Laguna Beach Landslide.

From Sweet_JoJo_16
Nutty Knots
"No, they are not engaged."

Hmmm. Which rumored-to-be-hitched hot Hollywood couple was the above statement released about?

? Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise?
? Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher?
? Penélope Cruz and Matthew McConaughey?

Jeez, if you guessed all three, you are so right on the meshuga money! Reps for all three overly exposed duos insisted to moi that recent hullabaloo stories about engagements--not to mention actual weddings in the case of Demi and her boy-man, Ashton--are "silly" and "colossally" untrue (their girlie words--not mine for a change).

2nd one
"Oh, I'm too young to get married, get real."
--Paris Hilton recently to yours truly

Now, I know you all know (too well) how I adore that raunchy richie bitchy named Paris. Pare-poo, I love to call her. But, darling, what are you thinking with this engagement biz?

Don't you have legions of lotharios to conquer and consume? Pretty please? With Nonoxynol 9 on top?

Who is this grizzly freak with the geek specs? Oh, of course. It's Ashton Kutcher, the exec producer of Beauty and the Geek. A.K., there's no rule that the boss-boy should look (and grow) the part of the secondary dork lead. Oh my. Does Kabbalah allow such hirsute grotesqueness? I swear, I'm going to ask Madonna...I mean Esther.

Whatev. Guess a bank account (belonging to b-f Paris Latsis) bigger than your own--which, by all gossipy records, isn't quite as damn hefty as most folks believe--changed your mind. Or is it that great cooking Latsis is so good at?

I say no duo smells as off as a boy who knows how to cook and a gal who knows how to not eat. What gives? I mean, Paris, the dude doesn't even like to party! Do people not know these basic factoids? Do the two of you, for heaven's sake?

Guess Paris is doing the sisterly thing and decided not to let sibling Nicky be the only one in the fam with a quickie marriage that went strangely--or not--awry.

But get ready for this: "She's really not that much of a party girl," sassed one of Paris' closest amigas (and I don't mean former friends, mind you). "It makes more sense than a lot of people realize."

More about Lindsay

Poor Lindsay Lohan! Her star is on the rise -- Herbie: Fully Loaded hits movie theaters June 22; she recently wrapped her first romantic comedy, Just My Luck; her debut album, Speak, went platinum; and she's Elle magazine's July cover girl -- but can she handle the pressure that comes with success? Of her recent, drastic weight loss, Lohan, 18, tells Elle: "It's not because I'm bulimic or anorexic or doing drugs. I worked a 21-hour day the other day. My body can only handle so much!" And the girl does eat! At the Elle shoot at NYC's Pier 59 Studios, she chowed down on chicken, salad and decadent tiramisu for dessert (one serving has about 900 calories). But her workload may not be the only reason Lohan is stressed out. On May 27, it was reported that her dad Michael was sentenced to up to four years in prison after pleading guilty to a slew of crimes, including driving while impaired and attempted assault. Lindsay herself just got into a traffic accident while driving her Mercedes-Benz in Beverly Hills. Before the May 31 incident, mom Dina thought Lohan was safer than most teens: "She gets more supervision than most kids!"

And her Herbie costar, Matt Dillon, 41, also thinks Lohan is handling fame just fine. "Being a famous girl, coming up in the movies, everybody's got you under a microscope," he says. "But you know what? Lindsay's got a fierce courage despite the fact that she's young. She's a gutsy girl." Amen!

Tommy Hilfiger Is a Big Jerk!

Tommy Hilfiger
Some of you may have watched the recent taping of the
Oprah Winfrey show where her guest was Tommy Hilfiger.
If you did not, here is what transpired:
On the show, Oprah asked Tommy Hilfiger if the statements about race he was accused of saying were true.
Statements like "...if I'd known African-Americans, Hispanics, Jewish and Asians would buy my clothes, I would not have made
them so nice. I wish these people would *NOT* buy my clothes, as they are made for upper class white people."

His answer to Oprah was a simple "YES."
Oprah immediately asked him to leave her show.

Health and Beauty Secrets

Ginger_Fretelli askes,
This is going to sound like a dumb q, but how do you properly put eyeliner on the inside of the eyes... I always put it on the edge, and it looks fine, but I want a more dramatic night look without looking like a whore.

l0v3d says: you dont have to look like a whore if you put eyeliner on the inside of the eyes. just using a lighter colour or a thinner line works well.

sweet_jojo_16 askes,
my hair always seems to be greesy all the time does it make it worse when u wash it all the time i either wash my hair everyday or every 2/3 days my hairs blonde with brown underneath and brown streaks have any advice for me? whats the best shampoo to use?

l0v3d says: Wash your hair every other day. Use a shampoo with a mild conditioner or no conditioner at all. Your hair must be really moisturized so i would stay away from oily porducts for your hair and gels. If your hair becomes oily you can put it in a messy bun or have a sort or grungy hairstyle then nobody will notice how oily it is unless they touch it.

twirlbaby askes,
Do the anti friz serums they make actually work?

l0v3d says: Well, I have tried one of those anti-frizz serums and it did work pretty well.. So i would say go ahead and try them, experiment to see which ones are better.

DiViNeGoDdEsS askes,
1- i have a oily face... and during the summer all the heat and sweat clogs my pores and i break out like crazy... i tried all kinds of lotions and cleansing soaps and stuff but nothing seems to work... i used almost all the products one can find in the market... but it doesnt seem to work... i need help cuz my prom is coming up and i really want to have a clear complexion...

l0v3d says: Well, you should skip the products and like wash your face with soap, warm water and a washcloth. The warm water would open up your pores and it would get all the dirt and stuff out. When your done, finish off with a rinse of cold water. When your face starts to get oily there are these olay wet cloths you can bring to school and you can wipe your face with it.

Poems by sexyeyes51005 aka Lauren

1. "Don't" a Lauren orginal
I don't want to argue, I don't want to fight, I just want to be with you tonight. So take me now, take me here, tell what what I like to hear. So hold me close, hold me near, hold me close to your heart so I can hear. I see all the thing, I see them clear, because I'm near. I see everything so clear, I can hear, everything is wonderful. Every moment is passion, I want it to last. I can smell the Axe on your chest, you can smell the liquor my breath. You understand, like no one ever did, you understand and I am happy. So I don't want to argue, I don't want to fight, I just want you to hold me so close tonight.

2. "Illusions" by Lauren
Don't tell me I love him, when I know I don't
Don't push us together, like they want.
Don't Label us, Don't call us a "couple"
I'm not in love with him, I'm not even missing him,
It's all an illusion in your mind!
I'm not even cold without him, I don't ache for him,
He's nothing to me anymore, he's just a memory,
I memory which everyday I will try to erase.
I made a mistake, I admit it, but what we made was not,
He wasn't like anyone else, he protected me.
But it's all over, it was just an illiusion in your mind!

BlondeBarbie04 asks:
My parents 25th Anniversary is coming up and I want to do something special for them. I need to know something to do that doesn't cost too much money and is something I can handle by myself. Thanks!

Laura624 says:
The first thing that popped up in my head was a collage or album. You can buy those for cheap at any store like Walmart. Here's the "hard" part: find photos of your parents from way back when, before their weding, after the wedding, before and after they had kids, with the kids (grandchildren if any) and throw them all together in a collage frame or album. It's a sentimental gift that costs next to nothing, but it's rich in memories.

The following people need advice. Please bolt note them if you have any advice for them.

countryhottie_69's problem:
My best friend wants 2 hook up with my ex, but the thing is I still love him very much & I was talking 2 him & we were supposed 2 hook back up. But ever since he started talking 2 her he has totally dropped me. He has asked her out twice & she has said no but is gonna say yes if he asks one more time. It would really hurt me if they hooked up cuz I want him back. Plus they have never met each other. They have only talked on yahoo & text messages & the phone!!!!!! I dont know how 2 get over all this cuz it hurts real bad & I have cried alot bout it!

twirlbaby's problem:
How do I talk to a boss that is rude and condensending?
