Idea! I wonder if I should TAKE IT AND DO IT. no.

I get random ideas for fanfictions in my head. Like, after reading Wintergirls a few days ago, I had an idea of writing a story about a certain girl who has an eating disorder. I think all the clues are already there in the story, and I just have to add more DETAILS! Except I don't want to get into that whole "genre" of fanfiction again, so I won't. Well, I might, but I don't know.

It's sad, because a lot of my fanfiction ideas still go straight to Twilight. I blame this on being my first MAJOR forray into writing some... Shameful, but yes.

Ooh, my computer is in Louisville right now! While it's a bit creepy I can TRACK that stupid thing, I wish it was closer right now. It's true, I do.

Anyway, I didn't do much today. I didn't work, so I slept. And I slept. I also had some breakfast for supper--that didn't involve pancakes--so I was quite happy about that. I'm very sick and tired of pancakes right now. Ahg.

I am also planning on going to the library and movies tomorrow afternoon! That is, if work doesn't call me in. Which it won't. =) YEAH. I'm cool.

I act like I'm a writer `cause I wrote one chapter...

Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen make weird movies. And when I say weird, I mean kind of successful, but kind of lame.

I'm watching Billboard Dad right now. Well, more like listening, not watching.

I wrote my first chapter! I wrote my first chapter!

While I'm not completely pleased with it, I'm kind of happy about it. I mean, I WROTE it! That's commitment. I didn't even put that much awesome into my NaNo or my Script Frenzy thing. So it's nice to know I'm doing this with my bestest friend... AS I can't let HER down! (More so than usual, I suppose.)

Truth.

Sadly, I didn't get a call back from my interview from yesterday, but that's okay! I'll keep on looking for something. Yes.

Today I mowed the lawn. I also watched Monsters vs. Aliens. I LIKE that movie! My brother thought I wouldn't, but I showed him! I loved how B.O.B. was all, essentially, "I love you" to the JELL-O. It made me laugh a LOT! Yes. I'm easily amused, apparently.

I like that I'm rediscovering my love for MUSE. It's nice! And I love that I'm making playlists for my writing. It sets the mood for the chapter, yeah? YES. Do you have music playing for your writing?

The writing project, explained. (Hey Shelly! *wave*)

I glanced at the clock, and I saw 11:11PM.

IT DID NOT REGISTER.

So when I glanced at it at 11:13PM, I was all "WHY DIDN'T I MAKE A WISH?"

SLOW MOMENT.

Anyway!

THE WRITING PROJECT!

Wombat and I decided we needed something to do this summer. It actually was conceived in the middle of the night (maybe?) like all our ideas are, and it was okay! We decided we would write a book together, with a CHAPTER by CHAPTER trade off.

We are not planning on getting it published, really. It's just for fun, actually. I told my teacher about it, and since she's interested in my writing style, she wants to see it. I don't know if we're really planning on a readership beyond that, but it's fun!

The plot involves superpowers, teenagers, organizations and some dramaramama! YOU KNOW, the making of a good story!

While I haven't wrote a chapter yet, Wombat has, and it's quite good! We don't know how LONG it'll be, but we have a BOOK thing in mind. It's like NaNoWriMo, in the summer!

Yeah!

Any more questions?

My brobros grad.

Today it was my brother's grade eight graduation. He's a weird one, so he dressed up with a black shirt, red tie, and black pants. He looked pretty nice... Even though he spiked up his faded-blue hair. My brother is an odd one, I'm not going to lie.

I call him weird because he likes dressing up. Do people like doing that? To my surprise, my parents knew how to tie a tie. My brother and I did not.

I even dressed up. I wore that whole leggings, long shirt and necklace deal. I was all, "I am NOT wearing this" but my mom pretty much forced me into doing it... PASSIVE STYLE.

"This looks good on you. That did not."

Ohhhhhh. It was okay, though.

I don't know if you'd call it a long shirt, as much as a DRESS. It's one of those ??? things. Yeah!

Anyway, my brother won the same award my sister won: Most improved. I am the only child that didn't approve to the point of an award! My dad said I like to stay below the radar... I was all ... Yeah.

So back to my brother: When they called his name, he went up. And instead of posing for a picture with the teacher, he moved to the centre of the stage. And did a fist pump into the air, yelling "YEAH!"

That my friend, is my brother in a nutshell.

I thought of MLIA right away. My brother is average! (But in a good way.)

So right now I'm watching a rerun of Glee, and I LIKE it. There are a lot of good lines in this show... And this is the episode of Single Ladies! ON THE FIELD! Truth! =)

Anyway! I've got my volunteer hours, so I'll be able to shimmy that to the school office tomorrow. I be getting my diploma, FINALLY.

P.S: I don't know if I'll be able to finish the chapter tonight! Sorry! DARE FAIL.

I am writing a story of suck...!

Yesterday I got some inspiration for a story. So I'm working on that slowly, and I don't know where it's going. But it's exciting to know I'm writing something! As I totally failed at Script Frenzy. To give myself credit, I didn't even really WORK ON IT A WHOLE LOT. So yeah! I need to start getting some motivation for writing projects.

The story I'm writing right now is going to be SUCKY! Writing wise, I mean. I'm just writing to write! I'm not thinking about how it is on the SUCK factor of things: I'm just aware it's on there. So it's nice to have that in my mind, so I don't have to worry about every sentence being BRILLIANT or anything.

As I can't write brilliant things.

So what do you want to know about me? If you ask me a question, I will answer it. Grand Theft Auto reminds me of a BOY. Truly! I mean, I don't HATE the boy, but it's weird to think about people that aren't particularly HIGH on your list of awesome.

Anyway, I'm off to do some cleaning and stuff.
