Heeeey Guyyysss

So, I guess it's January now? Where did that come from?
Time moves too fast when you're not in school, let me tell you.

In other, completely unrelated news, for a while there was this one ad on youtube that would play in which some person would say, "I recently got married not too long ago" and every time I heard her say that I flipped tables. In my head. Metaphorical tables.

Well, to catch up on the gossip from two months ago (why am I so bad at blogging???) I DID finish NaNoWriMo, met my word count goal, and came out with a truly awful novel. It's hard for me to say if it's worse than 2012's novel.

On one hand, I actually had a plot this time.
On the other hand, it is a horrible, horrible plot.

None of my characters ended up the way I wanted them to, and I think that it just sort of fell apart and couldn't redeem itself.

Maye I'll rewrite it someday.

Maybe.


In other news, this is me all week. (how can I say 'all week'? It's only Tuesday)
I don't even understand what's going on these days.

nah, more like this.

like a pro

Work is work, cat is a cat, winter is winter, same old same old.

Hmm. Went to Orlando with my sisters two weeks ago, and that was amazing!

Highlight:
omg guys i luv dinosaurs

But seriously. Dinosaurs. Jurassic Park was amazing.
Wizarding World of Harry Potter? Epic. I went all out Hufflepuff. 
Me. The whole trip.


Ummmm yesss. Oh yes, other news!

So, I started reading this book that I'd gotten from the library last night. On the first page, I read that the author was 
1) a college student
2) from Minnesota

I FREAKED OUT.
Like, I don't know what it was, but all of my competitiveness burst out and I was like, "I WILL WRITE A NOVEL AND SHOW HER!"

...I don't even know. hahahaha

But seriously.



 Yeah, it's a made up competition. Whatever.


Oh let's see. That's about it. Now that my competitive nature has been ignited for whatever reason, I guess I'm going to try writing. Something. No plans yet. 


Have a happy January!
Happy 2014, btw :)

wait...what happened to winter?

Not that I'm complaining that winter's almost over. If I had things my way (aka if I could control weather) winter would never extend past March 20th. Snowstorm last week, I'm looking at you. Obviously my goal to write more on this blog went really well. I am a devoted blogger. Uhhhh.... truth be told I'm only starting back up because Camp NaNoWriMo is coming close and I once again feel the need to procrastinate by blogging. I've been throwing around a few ideas for Camp NaNo this April... I've been trying to convince myself that it's time to sit down and write a delightful science fiction planetary romance (or a good ol' fashioned space opera), but so far I'm not dedicated to it. That is, I have no ideas for a planetary romance. Plus, ugh, what if it takes place on this world that has life forms? I know I'd get way too caught up banging out the evolutionary details and no one has time for that during Camp NaNoWriMo. (AKA I am making excuses ...

~Live Long and Prosper~

Heyooo so today I watched my favorite movie! But before we get to that, quick update on movies I've watched since my Superman adventure. #10: Superman II   (same genres as Superman) I was drunk when I rewatched this and fell asleep halfway through, but it still counts. #11: Stardust  Genres: Fantasy, Based off Book, Romance Ok, so I do actually love this movie-- and the book!-- and I considered making the fourth genre Fancy Hair, but decided that was ridiculous #12: The Sting  Genres: Bromance, Shenanigans, Happiness I adore The Sting. Introduced to me by my father, this movie is great. First time I watched it, I thought that the SPOILERPERSON actually SPOILERDIED so that was exciting Movie #13 Star Trek!!!!   Genres: Remake, Bromance, Friendship=Magic Soooooooooooo for whatever reason, this is my favorite movie of all time. I find that fact super perplexing; like.... why???? Why is this movie my favorite??? I hadn'...

Ten Days Left

Well, Camp NaNoWriMo is winding down. Ummm.... I wish that I had some informational nonsense to share today, but I don't. It's been wretched hot here all week, and I've learned that there's a big difference between summering in Tucson where it's wretched hot all the time but everywhere has a/c, and summering in coastal Maine, where when it's wretched hot, not nearly enough places have a/c. It finally cooled down last night, and should hopefully stay bearable temperatures for at least next week. Back to writing! The story is going well! I've been prolific this weekend, and I hope that I stay with this story past NaNoWriMo, as there's a lot more of it to write. Si is about to join a secret society (I don't even know hahaha) and Bixby has been captured and is on her way to escaping! Good luck with that, everyone. I realized that I just set up Bixby's story to have a love triangle, but I hate love triangles, and Bixby doesn't have time ...
