NATIONAL NOVEL WRITING MONTH.

^ nuff said. ^

but seriously, I've got such a terrible start. I didn't start formally writing until Saturday so I have to write about 3,000 words a night to finish on time.

in two nights i got to 6,765 though...so I'm not that worried. :3

Day off of School!

I have resolved to not talk about homework in my post today. Other than that one time I said it right there, that is it.
GUYS. How is life? Anybody feel like they can finally live again? It is WONDERFUL. I don't know about you, but I have plans this weekend and it is great to have something fun to do! I've read two books so far. Well technically only read one all the way through, the other one I had started. I read the Death Cure (sequel to the Maze Runner and the Scorch Trials) - it was decent. Not as good as its precursors, but not awful or anything. And then then I have Underdogs which is a compilation of the three Cameron Wolfe stories by Marcus Zusak. I was rereading it, but even so, I love Getting the Girl. Cameron Wolfe is a wonderful person. Anyway. I also caught up on Glee and Castle. DAMIAN'S ONE LINE WAS GREAT. Ha ha! I can't wait to see more of him. He's definitely my favorite <3 as Cailyn knows from my over-raving :)
Anyway... I don't know what else to say really.
And I haven't heard any jokes lately... which is a major bummer. Funniest thing to happen this week was the English class that Johanna played Jeremy and Stepho had to sing. Johanna was soooo funny, because of course, as Jeremy she had to hit on Mattie. Anyway it was a great moment.
I feel like I don't see you guys anymore! Except Cailyn because we have every class together :) )(but even so we should hang out). This is a major bummer. Maybe we should have like a bloggers reunion or something so we can hang out.
Anyway,
Ciao! Enjoy the weekend!
Ellen :)

So many words.

Yes I know it's late, but I have been working all day on my history paper and NaNoWriMo and NOT calculus because math is a deceptive liar who doesn't know when to be a fraction and when to just be a derivative. Seriously, bro, you can't have it all.

Since I have so many other words to write tonight, you get a very very rough excerpt of my novel.

" That Thursday night, like so many nights before, I found myself sitting at my window seat, staring into the night. I had turned off the lights in my room and everything inside was touched by the eerie, bluish glow of the moonlight. Outside, I could see the first signs of frost forming on the grass and the blades still swaying slightly in the October breeze. The tree tops above made a hard, moving black line against the still, clear sky, and as I stared at the stars, I remembered the days where I still believed in wishing. Wishing on stars, or wishing in general, I didn’t know. Neither had gotten me anywhere good.
Some days, I did think that I could wish myself back to when I believed. When I was young, I would wish on the same star every night until the clouds had come in for good. The day I stopped seeing that star was the first reality check of my life. My father had set me on his lap and told me through my six year-old tears that wishing on a star wouldn’t make something happen; I had to get it myself. Wishing on the star just made me want it more.
And now, as I looked out my bedroom window, staring at the star. I wished with all my heart that I really could wish. But it wouldn’t happen. Things had changed."

Song of the Week ---> Yellow (cover) by the Vitamin String Quartet

Katie ---> out. MWAH.

Dance Co.!

FIrst of all, I just wanted to say congratulations to everyone in dance company - you all were amazing! I appreciate all your hard work to put on a great show for all of us.

Ok, we have so much homework this weekend, it's not even funny. And I want to write a ton for NaNoWriMo, but that comes after my history paper. I just need more time to complete everything. GAH. As Cailyn says, IMMADIE.

Ok, thanks for letting me put that on the record. Here's how I'm going to feel this weekend:




Have a good weekend!
