Nooooveemmberrrr
I hate it when people mess with my pattern, my groove, my comfy rut. I like sitting at the same table and going the same places. When it comes to school at least. Because in a place where it is so crazy and there are a million people here and I commute its nice to have a space I can slightly identify as mine. A place that is familiar. I am always looking at new places to establish as "mine". I know that I have gone to OU for a very long time now and I should just be used to sitting where ever and having a million people all around me. But still I like sitting in the same place. But regardless I cannot control the actions of others, nor can I ask her to move because this is a public area and it is first come first seat. Boo.
So on the Nanowrimo front, here is what I decided, I would opt not to do it. Here are my various reasons as to why:
A) I do not have all the time in the world to write. As much as I wish that it was the case its not. I have school, work, and commitments. I wish I could just sit and write forever but I cannot.
B) I didn't plan out a novel at all. I have no storyline, no characters, not even a setting. I felt horribly unprepared for it.
C) Short attention span
D) I can barely stand to up date my blog more than two days in a row. How am I supposed to write 50,000 words in 30 days?
So, rather than doing Nanowrimo I am going to push myself to do something different. I am going to update my blog almost every other day. Provided I have something worth documenting in my life. But November is a fairly busy month for myself I think I will do well. Whether I decide to update those posts to livejournal every time I don't know yet. But we will see. I also am going to start going through and editing my older livejournal entry's. And putting them on my own privet computer journal. I think I may start adding more meat to them. Not changing them of course but going back and fixing misspelled words, some grammar. Maybe even adding some of my own personal footnotes looking back on the situation. I am actually rather excited by this project. Revisiting my past always interests me.
Well, I better log on to stupid Aleks and start filling in the blanks I've left for myself. bleh So boring. Or maybe I will start editing the project now. So ToRn!
love you bloggy bloggg
