Day 1 at Tahoe

So. I got about…1,000 words written on the car trip up here, oh yeah. *shrugs* I may not have a lappy, but my dad pretty much always lets me use his. :)

I did some timed writings with the computer clock. I watched the hands and started from the start of a minute.

We’ve been leeching off the neighbors’ wireless Internet connection for e-mail and such, and I’ve hopped on CP a couple times. It would be better though if I stayed off it all together. For a couple reasons: a) I get less work done b) um. I’m in TAHOE!!! I shouldn’t be online!!!

Make sense? Ok. So, Day 1’s stats:

First Timed Writing Session:
First 10 Minutes:
414
Second 10 Minutes: 374 (*points accusingly at parents* they were talking to me :P)
Third 10 Minutes: 370 (ug. No excuse that time)

Bit of a break here. *woot* Grandma’s cat didn’t kill me when I tried to pet her!!! In fact, she rubbed against my leg. O_o Oo…



Second Timed Writing Sessions:
First Five Minutes (I had toast on :P):
168

And you know? I just wrote for the rest of the night…:P

Mood Music: Kevin Max – Platform (at the moment…will add what I am listening to at the end of my writings :)) Tobymac-Gone
Current Mood: Determined. *ninja*

Buahaha!!

Writing more Nano today, woohoo! :woot: However once again I decided to start at midnight. O:) After playing my computer game for an hour, not saving it and it blowing up. Putting me pretty much back at the beginning. Not cool. <_<

Anywho, today's stats:

First 10 Minutes: 428 words
Second 10 Minutes: 438

Haha! And this time I have with me a secret weapon. *shifty eyes* A clean room! Just kidding. A Mountain Dew which I will totally regret when I try to sleep...but hey! I got a new book. B) Oh! And I have Wheat Thins. B)

Third 10 Minutes: 507
Fourth 10 Minutes: 424
Fifth 10 Mintues: 407 (stopped the clock early. It's almost 2am for crying out loud, I would prefer not to wake the parents to the sound of a timer and make them think the fire alarm is going off or something...)

another Mountain Dew can later...ok, so I decided not to do Mountain I grabbed...a Diet Coke. Guess what? I hate diet stuff...-_- Nevermind, we had Pepsi! *woot* I hope I didn't wake anyone up with going outside to get a soda at 1:45am...*unsure*

anyways!

Sixth 10 Minutes: 386 (and thus 'tis proven: Pepsi is not as affective as Mountain Dew)

SECONDS HOUR:
First 10 Minutes: 411

Ok, I went until I hit 24,000 but didn't do anymore timed writings...

So...thus are today's stats...

Ok...I'm wiped...

Yet another day...

Comic of the Moment

...but with writing done! *woot* Yay!!!

Did more timed sessions:
First 10 Minutes: 388 words (give me a break it's 12:30am)
Second 10 Minutes: 478 (how did that happen?)

Third 10 Minutes: 474 (oh yeah! *pom*)

I took a short break here, made my bed, got some milk, made some sort of 1am snack pontificatin' when to practice piano tonight even though it would be 1am in 5 minutes...

ok. I didn't make my bed, I didn't even leave my desk. Or do any pontification. Meghan's already going to be ready to kill me tomorrow at piano.

Hm...I am beginning to wonder if this is cause for concern...

Fourth 10 Minutes: 382 (bleah...<_<)

I'll edit this post if I end up writing anything more...*zz*

Droppin' out?

Ok, so not "dropping out" exactly, I mean there really isn't a way to drop out. When you drop out, you can't get back in until next time.

I have until 11:59 November 30 to not "drop out." However I seriously feel zero motivation for this now.

It might be a cockiness. *shrugs* Dunno...hm...

First 30 Minute Session
First 10 Minutes: 455 words
Second 10 Minutes: 413
Third 10 Minutes: 548 (I think...)

Second 30 Minute Session
First 10 Minutes: 402
Second 10 Mintues: 379
Third 10 Minutes: 459 (I think again. <_< I need to start paying more attention where I stop and start in between sections...)

and the rest of any writing I did was just...bleah. :P

And that's it for today...

Words Written Today: 4,842
Total Word Count: 16,142

Yay! I'm caught up! *dances* And *pause* woah...I wrote tomorrow's too. *blink* Or today's, hehe. Good, that way I can do the homework I neglected today...

Anywho, there is today's update. :P Thing. :P

Current Music: Shine-Jaci Velasquez
Current Mood: Irritated-
Reason for Mood: I have finally hit a "I don't know what to do next" in my NaNo. I could make it sad again because it is turning corny. <_< But, well...*sigh* and I am so sick and tired or beating my characters up but don't know what else to do. *unsure* I might incorporate some more sci-fi elements with it being futuristic once they're in Canada. :P
