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 :)

#20!

Oh yes, I ended with She's the Man . A great movie. #19 was Serenity , a lovely movie that continues Firefly . #20 is Sense and Sensibility! Genres:  Based off Book, Feelings, Romance So, yes, I love Jane Austen. I'm feeling way too lazy to find some awesome internet gifs, so that'll be skipped this time around. Best parts about this movie? Fanny Dashwood. Amazingly awful. She doesn't like the smell of books. who doesn't like the smell of books Hugh Grant? Bumbling at his best. Margaret Dashwood... in love with an atlas. Alan Rickman....being Alan Rickman. A fine film! Which reminds me: ARE YOU IN A JANE AUSTEN NOVEL?? you'd better find out.

IT'S ALIIIIIIIVE

I mean, what's two years in the life of an indifferent blogger? Just a blink of the eye. So, kudos to me, it's not NaNoWriMo and I'm updating my blog!!!!! Anyway I thought I'd update the ol' Spete Blog with my newest publication announcement! Two (2) short stories! Both are older (3+ years old) works that I decided on a whim to publish ( read as: I was working on my novel and had fallen into a pit of despair because it's so long and I'm never going to finish the thing and I dismally remembered that I haven't published anything since Andrian Adventures like 10 years ago and what is even the point of keeping all my old stories to myself on my laptop if I'm just going to stare sadly at them day and isn't it much better to publish them and then stare sadly at the 0 Sales report instead ) .  They're fractured fairy tales of the silliest sort. Also, both take place in the kingdom of Atlis. I have done so much world building f...

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'...
