I am very destressed with NaNoWriMo this year. Why?
a) I am up to a scene where it's the next village over and I completely rushed it. Keep it mind it's the first chapter....
b) I'm going to rush this book just to get to 50,000 words. Well, I want a non-rushed novel and want to complete 50,000 words. -dies in destressed-
Well, I'm suppose to get 1,666 (or 1,667) words per day for NaNoWriMo and it doesn't look very well. I am not coping with my story line and my characters aren't really developing yet as I would like to. 1,021 words and it's 3:06 pm AEST (with Daylight saving). My sister is home and she has university work to do and I need also to print/finish my Geography report (due tomorrow). -sigh- What has this girl got to do?
I am watching videos on YouTube. Maybe that will help. Or reading... I seriously need to stop procastinating and get on with the whole novel writing. But Lauren's ukele singing is so tempting. It's making me smile and she has a fabulous singing voice (I am very jealous). I never seen the other fiveawesome girls sing, the mater of factly. Does anyone know if the other four girls have singing voices?
Happy: NaNoWriMo
Sad: Geography report due tomorrow

Halloween + NaNoWriMo + Sun burn + Rock Esteidford + Canberra + Harry Potter + Basketball = Fun week
Halloween is starting in Australia today. I'll be dressing up as a Gothic Witch. Whenever I tell my friends via internet, I keep on typing "Gothic Vampire" but as soon as I saw I wrote 'Vampire' instead of 'Witch', I quickly backspaced and retyped 'Witch'. This automatically made me think that Australian people aren't a big fans of Halloween compare to Americans. Especially around my block. I only remember when I was aged between 6-8, very few people knocked on our door for Halloween. This made me feel really old whenever I thought back to the memory when I dressed up as a Witch or as one time, a Rock Star and trick or Treat. I was suppose to have a Halloween sleevover but none of my friends, who were invited, could make it.
NaNoWriMo is starting tomorrow. 50,000 words in a month, 1,666 words a day, one novel at the end of the journey.I'm already nervous. I was watching Hayley's video, when Halyey mentioned NaNoWriMo. 5 reasons why to join and do NaNoWriMo (not the actual title of Hayley's video). Anyone doing it for the first time? Any stories about you doing NaNo? When did you start NaNo? I started last year with the novel "Story of the Lost Girl" (something along those lines). Got up to 15k roughly. But I'm aiming to finish it.
Yesterday it was my last day/first day (I didn't turn up on the first day of Swim and Survive) Swim & Survive, plus my first and last time doing it. I didn't turn up in year 7 for it. It was TORTURE! Child abuse, seriously. My friend and I didn't turn up on the first day (let alone when we were in year 7), and all we did is 200m of survival strokes, saving each other by rope in the water, and about an hour or so jumping in the pool doing the same dive, over and over. It was really boring as! We didn't do the test about resusitation (thank goodness). At the end of the day (after I didn't go to Play Rehursal), I got sun burnt on my left shoulder. I thought I put sunscreen there, but I guess not. Well I learned my lesson.
Right now, I'm watching Rock Esteidford finals. This made me think about my school, how we never do these sort of stuff. We are a very relax school and the only major production that involved so many people did it, was last year. We did a musical from scences from previous plays from the past 90 years. Since it was the 90th Anniversry (we started in 1918). The musical had like over 100 people in it (majority were female with 20ish guys). I want my school to try and do this, involving everyone. But I guess not cause my school loves and admires good academic scores.
Canberra trip for the History/Geography excursion is on this Thursday and Friday. Great, two or so hours on a bus, full of students, in either my sports or my school uniform traveling to our national city, Canberra. I'm tempting to bring my DS, iPod, books, and pens/pencils/pencil case to keep me occupied. I am tempted to write blog entries to type it onto here. I have to leave school at 6am and coming back at school the next day at 8:30pm. I'll be missing glee.
Harry Potter dinner was under fire. A woman was selling tickets for a Harry Potter themed dinner when Warner Bros. sent her a letter saying that they will put a law suit if she didn't stop her Harry Potter themed dinner. Has this happened to anyone in a similar situation? Or do you know anyone who was in the same shoes as this lady? Article.
Basketball this week was fun this week. Apart from playing with a sun burnt shoulder and had a bleeding toe, bruised right knee, court burned left knee and a bruised foot (a Pepsi Max can fell on my right bare foot, causing a massive bruise). we won Basketball (I scored a basket), 58-17. It was a really awesome game. I'm really sad that I won't turn up to the next game due to me being in another state/city.

Cold Spring day with the touch of Facebook procastination and other spectacular things
It's suppose to be Spring, and hot because it's close to the summer season here in Australia but now it's decided to be all cold, miserable and wet. Maybe the Dementors are coming to get me because I joined the Facebook group "F*** Iraq, We have to catch Voldemort". Who knows? But I guess the miserable weather is forcing me to stop procastinating and finish the report for Geography (due 2nd November) and finish Maths homework.
Facebook has now changed. With the live feed, and the new features of the home page when you sign in, made me really confused and disliking Facebook even more (at the start, I liked Facebook but the new layout just kills it). What are yoour thoughts about it? Should it change back to the old layout? I heard none of my friends saying they liked the new layout and they are joining groups about changing the layout back to the old one.
NaNoWriMo starts less than a week for Australia (6 days, 11 hours and 57 minutes). I cannot wait, really, I cannot. Even though I'll be juggling homework, blogging, Vlogging on YouTube, and the play, it'll be interesting how I'll finish 50,000 words in a month. What are your plans to finish the book in a month? Are you juggling anything during November (e.g full or part time University/College, full/part time job etc)?
I saw Julie & Julia yesterday. May I say, it has inspired me to do something for the entire year. Like maybe finish the horrid Twilight Series or something else. Has anyone seen the film and has inspired to do something ove a period of a year? Any suggestions on what I should do for a year and not drop out?
Happy: Basektball starting up soon
Sad: Swim and Survive (Thursday & Friday)
Reading: Rowan the Strange, Chinese Cinderella and the Mystery of the Song Dynasty Painting, and A Year In Girls Hell (#4).

That time of the year
It's the time of the year, that people count down to the 1st November to write a 50,000 word novel in the month of November. NaNoWriMo starts in another 12 days (for all those people in line of the Australian time zone) while the rest roughly 13 days. Are we all prepared?
If you don't know what NaNoWriMo is, well, NaNoWriMo stands for National Novel Writing Month that takes place every November 1st-3oth each year. You just write for a month and eventually you write a 50,000 word novel. Some people write over the 50,000 bench mark and that's fine. The aim is to write a 50,000 word novel in a month.
Thinking of joining? Well go to NaNoWriMo and sign up. I've done last year but I never got to the 50,000 word bench mark. Well, thios is the year that I'm planing to get to 50,000 words.
Here is the sypnopsis of my novel this year's NaNoWriMo:
"Lola is an average girl, well to mere mortals of the planet earth anyway. She's the "Chosen One" (to those who believe in the prophecies) to fight one on one to the Queen of the magical world, Veneficus. So when Lola, the apprentice of becoming a witch goes to the town of Amor, she has to abandon her knowledge of all things she learned from her teachers to become a hero to everyone, including someone who she never thought of before."
If you are wondering how I came up with the world Veneficus and Amor. They are latin words of magic (Veneficus) and love (Amor). I thought that instead of doing a Young Adult book like what I did last year, I am doing a fantasy book involving magic (witches mostly).
Happy: School (tomorrow) = seeing my frineds
Sad: Holidays finishing and still missing Japan.

Japan Tour
Hey everyone.
I'm back from Japan (well two days ago but my laptop didn't work so I'm using my sister's one).
Apart from the remaining jetlag, our buggage being lost and me passing out, it was spectacular.
Our baggage got lost because our flight was delayed for an hour then we literatly ran in Seoul (South Korea) airport to the next flight. They didn't put our luggage in because it was too late so they put it on the next flight. We had to wear our stinky Tour T-Shirt and whatever else for the next day and a half. Only one person got their luggage back before everyone else.
I blanked out after we went to Disney land. I was walking very uncordinatedly and I remember parts of it while I don't remember much else.
So pretty much there are some adventures of me in Japan.
Happy: Holidays
Sad: School resumes 19th October
Looking forward: To the play rehursals
Reading: Fruits Basket (Vol. 4), Rowan the Strange, .Hack//Legend of the Twilight (vol.3) and Chinese Cinderella and the Mystery of the Song Dynasty Painting
Listening: Dance Dance by Fall Out Boy
