Felt very productive today, yet the day is not yet over! I can still write more, but alas, homework s calling my name once again, and I have to get it done because tomorrow's the last day before Thanksgiving break, and I'm missing half my classes to work on the Grandparents Day video. If only my grandpa could fly in just a few days earlier, so I could join in... oh well, I guess it'll be good experience working in the media center for half the day. Plus, I'll get free food, and more experience with Final Cut. I made a logo for the event today, and while I'm not too impressed with myself, it's still pretty good. It's passable. But I guess I'm just saying that because I've done cooler, more creative things. Maybe tomorrow I'll work on more logos, or something, but our tech director said he liked the one I made already, and I don't think I'll give him too many choices, as he'll be busy enough tomorrow.

In other news, it hurts when I breath for some odd reason. My mom, who knows mostly everything about the human body, says that one of the muscles that is attached to my ribcage is to blame. That's not what she said exactly, but it was something like that. Anyway, it just hurts the breath deeply, and it kills me to yawn.

Ugh, I need this Thanksgiving break so badly... lots and food and lots of words! I think I should make that my motto for this break.

"Lots of food and even more words!"

I hope I don't get a stomach ache. Or, in this case, a hand cramp, from writing so much!

Oh, and thanks to those who left me comments from the NaNoWriMo forums, I 'ppreciate it!

The taste of noveling in the morning is just so delish!

Today was very successful, I wrote 2000 words! I'm going to use Thursday to have a hardcore writing marathon during my double free period. Hopefully, no one will be to distracting as I type, type, type in the A/V lab, especially SOMEONE I know, who loves to chatter and thinks he's soooo important! Arg. I bought a 4-pack of Starbucks Mocha frappucchino bottles, so that will be totally delish, as I can' have myself falling asleep on my laptop as I novel this month.

SOMEONE

I'm so ahead of my daily word goal, so I've decided to stop writing for now. :-)

4588/50000

Maybe I should shoot for a more ambitious word goal. I don't know if I could EVER get to 100,000 like some insane writers. Or maybe I could, I'm just way too busy to do that this year. I'm thinking 75,000 would be more realistic for me, but I don't think I'll shoot for it unless I get extremely ahead.

I have learned that typing at school is difficult. Not everyone brings their laptops to school, so I have to go to a place where a laptop would "blend in" and not raise any eyebrows. Also, I don't want many people to know I have it, because then THEY might want it!

I tried getting some work done in the A/V lab, because there are so many macs in there, that mine would kinda get camouflaged with the rest. But noooo, SOMEONE had to be loud and annoying like usually. I won't drop names, but it's a certain SOMEONE who won an emmy, and walks around like he owns the place!

The NaNo website is going so slow, and has so many errors, but whatevs. All I need to do is update my word count, I don't use the forums too much.

In other news, I a extremely HAPPY and incredibly CONTENT! My life has been slowly getting better, but today was just plain AWESOME! List of happy things:

• We started a ladder tournament for badminton in gym today. My doubles partner is a little annoying, but I wasn't missing too much, and it was fun to score lots of points!
• The announcements that Will, Talya, and I made were on today, and the people in my class actually watched (for the most part) instead of chatting (so I can't hear). They thought what we did was funny, and someone said, "the announcements are getting better!" I decided we need to make our creative announcements more often, so that's what I'm going to try to do.
• In my graphic design class, I was the only one who had used flash before, so I felt very smart when we were learning how to use it.
• Had a bagel and lox for lunch today, and two Reese's cups. Yummmy.
• In orchestra, I was able to play my part really well! I felt so awesome... like a violin superstar! Maybe I was so good because we played the only piece I've been practicing.
• Forgot to do my Psych homework, but she didn't check it today so I still have until Monday to do it!
• Life is good.

edit: I found some new word count widgets for this year! They were on this site for anyone who's interested in one. Here are what mine look like:
