Content (30/40)- Your diary is mostly a day-to-day account of your life. You have little to no emotions in your entries and you don't talk much about your personal opinions on things. There is no doubt that you write well, but I just couldn't really get into your life. You mostly talk about college, tests, what you and your friends do, and class. You diary might be interesting for someone who knows you, but for a random person it seems rather dreary. Nothing that you write really holds my attention, but I still don't mind reading.

Layout (7/10)- I do believe it's self-designed since I don't see a link in sight. I personally love the canvas background. It's very unique. The palm tree shadow effect is really great too. I don't understand why you have your links twice, once at the top, and again at the bottom. I think the layout would look better if the entry area had a border around it and the links were on the outside to the right. The font looks mangled with the canvas background too, but I do love it, so I'm trying to ignore that.

Grammar and Spelling (10/15)- You capitalize and punctuate most of the time, but when you just type a short, quick entry, you don't. Fair.

Updating (4/5)- Often enough.

Contacts (10/10)- Email. Guestbook. Notes. IM. Tagboard.

Getting Around (8/10)- Decent.

Extra Things (4/5)- Bio. Profile. Rings. Quizzes. Pics. Reviews.

Fun Factor (3/5)- Bah. Not particularly.

Extra Credit (3/5)- 3 points for the layout. I love the canvas background!

Total (79/100)- Bronze Award.

Comments- You might want to try a different font with the background because it's a wee bit hard to read. Or you could just add the "white-out" effect over the background and that might cut back on some of the blur.
