So, although I didn’t post anything yesterday, I am counting my double post on January 1st as that one [I haven’t broken my resolution, so there.] This will be brief, because I don’t feel very interesting today, only tired and stressed out although I am just finishing vacation [bizarre, right?].Yesterday was a whirlwind of shopping […]
So… today I was going to work. I was going to work on essays, homework, projects, memorization… but then I fell asleep. I got about 115 pages into Bill Richardson’s autobiography [yay!] but realized that Indian food and going to bed at 3am make you exceedingly tired. So I took a half hour nap, woke […]
I started watching TV again. I finished an essay draft but then felt guilty today for not producing the same result. I started knitting, realized that I was making it a task, and slumped back to watch a marathon of Mythbusters. Go figure.But I have found a couple of interesting articles that are making me […]
http://uniknotions.com/fulldebate.php?debatenum=147 [UPDATE: video has been removed]I don’t know why, but after watching this video I am completely inspired. To do some random things and things that are fun – I think people just don’t do absurd things here because there isn’t a soundtrack playing back to them all the time. Maybe that’s the intrigue of […]
…people who really believe and love themselves.I think that I’ve found a lot of amazing people and I wouldn’t give them up for the world. And I get to see them, and I get to talk to them, and I get to know them, and it is awesome. But there are also the people I […]
It’s December 1st and I am sitting here quite amazed at the NaNo novel I just punched out of myself. 50,252 words according to the NaNo counter, 50,039 according to mine [I prefer the former]. It’s the end of our 4 day break and it feels like nothing – but it was fun nothing, so […]
Man, that was perhaps the hardest thing I’ve had to do this year.Getting myself back on track with the NaNo word count was really difficult today – I was two days behind and I just got up to the necessary for yesterday. That means I still have to write about 1667 words for today but, […]
This year I have pledged to myself that I will win NaNoWriMo.And this promise, so far, seems to be on track. But I am still teetering right on the edge of whether there will be another 35,000 words jumping at the edges of my psyche by the end of the month – it is, of […]
Yes, we can. And we did.That is the mantra that is going through my head every moment after the presidential results were announced last night. We fought and won. It’s so amazing. I just… I had so much emotion last night at the election party. It was just so great to see that amazing number […]
As I have said multiple times before: I want college.Maybe if I say it enough times it’ll come faster. However, in the present moment the first few weeks of high school have petered into nearly a month of the same scholastic opportunities as last year. I am feeling less stressed but also more bored as […]
