Hello girls! Today is the eleventh Tuesday of NEA.
I am currently in sixth period (Actually, it's past nightfall now). It feels like everyone is watching me type this up. But I just know that I’m being paranoid right now.
I’m supposed to be practicing a speech, but I really don’t feel like it. This month is going to be super busy and I know that I won’t have very much time to type up this post when I get home.
So, I suppose that I’ll give you a short update of what is going on in my life (yay!). Yesterday, I started my first NaNoWriMo novel. During all of October, I was planning what my novel was going to be about and everything. There were about five ideas swirling around in my mind. All of them seemed appealing, but I wasn’t quite sure about any of them. At this time yesterday, I finally decided what I was going to write about. I tried writing a bit during sixth period yesterday (I'm going to fail this speech...). It wasn’t that great, but I figured that it would do. As the final bell rang and I walked out the door, I thought of the perfect way to start my novel. I thought that I was the type of person who was better at planning ahead, but I guess I’m the type of person who do better just sitting down and writing. So, after finishing my homework and reading a bit, I started my novel. I didn’t quite execute the first chapter as I had planned (it sucked!), but it was a much better start than anything else I had. I was already exhausted by the time I went to bed. I have a feeling that this month is going to be rather difficult.
Wow. That wasn’t really short. NaNo is making me write more with everything else in my life! D:
Anyway, I’m still reading Harry Potter. I finally caught up a bit last week, but I’m still one book behind where I should me. My dad got the tickets to see the movie at midnight. I honestly cannot wait. I know that I’ve mentioned it quite a bit though, so I suppose that you know that already. I’ve also started reading the Hunger Games. It’s really good. I finished about a third of the first book in a day (which was a lot considering that I also reading half of a Harry Potter book that day). I haven’t read much since because I’ve been busy, but I really like it so far. So, onto the theme.
In other news, today is election day here in America. If I were able to vote, I'd most likely be voting all Democrat. I'm not sure which party is doing better. I'll have to check the damage tomorrow.
This week is Undiscovered Youtubers week! My favourite undiscovered YouTuber is Sam Hart (blinktwice4y). He mostly uploads music (both originals and covers). Here are five (!) of my favourite videos from him:
There are other Undiscovered Youtubers that I like a lot, but I'm going to spare you the spamming that I just did with the last one. O: Sorry.
Now, onto addressing your posts.
Winona. I hope that you have an awesome time at the MCR concert tomorrow. Sounds amazing! Also, I’m super jealous that you get to go to London. I hope that you have a good time, though.
Sonja. I don’t have a picture at hand of my Halloween costume. I dressed up like Hermione, though. I carried around a book everywhere I went. Maybe I’ll have a picture for you next week.
Bridget. Don’t apologize for not posting! I’m speaking for the other girls here, but I’d say that we completely understand. I was saddened to hear about Roxy. It sucks to lose someone you care about. It really does. When my dog was injured badly, I was distraught. I can only imagine what it’s going to be like when he passes away. My condolences are with you, love.
Jess. I'm actually subscribed to RoxinPunch. She's quite entertaining. I hope all is going well with your...hot air balloon work (even if it is really odd that you are learning so much about them)!
Song of the Day: The Instigators by The Weasel King
Currently Reading: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling and The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Word Count: 3500 words (even!)
I hope that your novels are going well for those of you who are doing NaNoWriMo (one more set of parentheses just for kicks).
Winona, I probably won't read you tomorrow. Have fun, though!
-Annica
