You always think you can stop and you never really can! It becomes like a drug, addicting as hell and yet it can be bad for you in many ways! In this case in sleep deprivation. Although I would have been awake anyway so I suppose this was just a little more productive sleep deprivation? Well I finished my novel for the second time today. I count days from when I wake up until I go to sleep THEREFORE... here's the kicker ladies and gents... I have written over 11,000 words today! This is a few hours of work here. I give you inspiration if your word counts are horrifically low... if you want to finish just go crazy... 11,000 words come on that is a lot you can do it I believe in you! But yes I will probably finish my novel for the third time in my writing class. I may start on it later. I really need to crack down on the rest of my school work.
*ashamed face* I am le done. BEDTIME YAY :D
This is where I will whine about my failures and cheer about my triumphs! Over the month of the November I will add posts here about my progress in NaNoWriMo and a few tidbits from my story if I feel it is worthy!!!

OH WOW I DID IT! I love this font hmm... anyway! I finished my story. The whole thing ended at 50,104 words exactly! It was perfect timing. It all came together in an abrupt stop though. It was strange and yet comforting. It sounded better than the truth so I was happy with that! Many of my friends are asking for my novel already! They aren't actually doing nano though so it makes sense. My characters fell apart. The poor romance! I gave my friend a back of the book blurb because he wanted to know what it was about so here it is:
A story of two lovers intertwined in the
world of gaming. Two nerds brought together by their
passion for gaming. Torn apart by accusations and
assumptions.
Good times. Gotta do this next year :D

Ruff day today. Personal things got me down. I pushed myself through another day in my novel though. I've got a theme going on. Or perhaps an obsession? A lot of my paragraphs begin with a time in this format:
It's [number here] o'clock [am or pm here].
It's very strange! I don't do it every paragraph though but it does aid me in signalling a new paragraph to my mind. Sometimes I don't want to put a new paragraph but this whole timeframe thing pushes me to do it. Time to take a personal day!

Well I am le exhausted! I feel like my story is dwindling. I don't know when it's going to end and what's going to happen! I mean it's a memory so I do but I don't know what it will look like typed out. I'm getting exhausted of my story and yet I'm not. It just keeps bringing up those memories. My mom asked if she could read my story and I said no ten million times. She doesn't want to hear all of it and she doesn't understand why. It's a big TRUST ME thing.

Argh. That time warp is itching the back of my head. I shouldn't have ventured into the depths of my memories! They bring about bad things. I desire certain things that I cannot have. ARGH. Lifestyles suck. I love to love. But I hate to hate. Nano meeting today I do believe.. [today being sunday even though to me its still saturday.] Jeff just told me he'd see me in about 10 hours or so. Wonderful :D I hope not to be a grumpy biatch that I have been lately. Tension rising. Pain consuming.

I broke 20k! I'm so tired though. I feel as if I cannot continue! My novel goes to places it shouldn't. I almost put in a warp and went to something completely different! But I can't do that to it. The moment in my life I'm trying to recreate in words is not being justified by those words. The memories in my head surpasses everything written down. It's so terrible. I feel as if I shouldn't even be attempting this! But it's worth it? I'm reverting to that part of my life now too. Doing those things I swore I'd never do again. Man I suck.

Well I haven't had a lot of writing bursts lately. I mean it's pretty slow lately! I've stopped writing contractions in almost everything I do. It is taking serious effort to include contractions. I always have troubles in writing class because I make a goal and then I am afraid to overcome it. I always go above and beyond my goal and yet I can't seem to make myself push the goal count higher. I'm afraid of failure. My story isn't really going anywhere at the moment. It just stays on specific moments and drags on forever. It isn't supposed to be good though right? Yes! Just word count. Oh I feel so lame. Oh well I'm ahead and I can afford to take breaks thank god.

Woah I broke the 10k barrier! I am motivated by the people lagging behind me. If they start to approach my word count I push myself to write a little more. I like being on top it makes me feel as if I have a skill.

Wow. My first 5,000! I'm so proud hehe. My story is coasting along quite nicely. I know for sure it will shift from reality before my 50,000. Unless I get crazy descriptive along the way! But it is so good so far! I have been making apostrophes disappear because it adds more words. I have also never written so proper before. It looks odd every now and then but most of it fits quite nicely. If it looks really bad I don't change it. I'm done for today. Only 44,844 words to go!

Wow what a lift-off for me! I only wrote in writing class so I had about an hour. I accomplished my word goal (900 words) and completely went overboard! It came so easily. It's about my life so it's kind of simple. The events are so vivid it's really interesting to see them played out in words. I was worried I couldn't send it to my house but I got it done and all was well! I think I wrote the most or close to the most in our class. Ms. Cowley said "Holy cow you do type fast girl!" But I started late because I was trying to configure the sound so I could play my cd's in the cd-rom. That turned out bad. It played on the computers speakers and oh my :$ I was le embarassed fo sho! Hehe. So I'm going to get writing again I'll update later... :D GL HF fellow Nanoers
Nanonanonanonanonano!!!!!
OMG I'M SO EXCITED! And yet I cannot start until later today in writing class. It's upsetting I'll tell you that much! I have to attend school for the mostpart of the day. In writing I shall write up a storm, e-mail it to my home computer and then when I get home I'll continue writing up a lovely little storm of words! I will update when I get home :)
