A Very Short Excerpt from my Nanowrimo Thing [Nov. 3rd, 2009|10:33 pm]
[Tags|]
[I am feeling rather | busy]
[In my ears is: |End of a Century- Blur]

The following is an excerpt from the novel I am writing for Nanowrimo, which is called (for now) The Pilgrim, The Lover, and What Happened to London. It is a conversation between Sebastian, who has been told to look for his mother who ran away when he was two, and Riley, a recluse he met while in a camp about two years ago. This is set in the only occupied house in a London suburb two and a half years after the first case of a disease that went on to kill forty percent of the city's population, and about half of the world's. 

I quite like it, so I thought I'd put it up. I warn you, however, that it is unedited.

[I am feeling rather | scared]

This is probably going to be my last blog post for a while. As Sanna and Abbi have already blogged, at midnight tonight (FOUR MINUTES AWAY),   Nanowrimo starts. As I am stupid and possibly suicidal, I am doing it. 

(Holy shit, remind me why?)

Between that, school, homework, work, DF, and YouTube, I am not going to have any time for anything. Except making coffee. And that's going to be more a neccesity than a luxury. 

But my point is that I won't blog, probably, but that I will still be alive, probably, and might tweet to prove it? I don't know.  

If you get worried (which you won't) feel free to bring me coffee and hugs. Seriously, even if I don't know you. I am going to need all the coffee and hugs I can get.

Wish me luck.

1. Do you like blue cheese? No, I do not. Eugh.
2. Have you ever smoked heroin? Nope.
3. Do you own a gun? No. But I know a little more about them than I am really comfortable knowing. Ah well, it'll be useful come the revolution.
4. What flavor do you add to your drink at Starbucks? I drink caramel machiattos. Adding anything to them would be ungodly.
5. Do you get nervous before doctor appointments?  I can't remember my last.
6. What do you think of hot dogs? They are pretty good, especially if there are onions.
7. Favourite Christmas movie? I don't have one. 
8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning? Coffee.

11. Favorite hobby? Does Twitter count? 
12. Do you have A.D.D? No.
13. What’s one trait you hate about yourself? My sentences are so very long and hardly ever mean things.
14. Middle name? Amber. After my great grandfather Ambrose.
15. Name 3 thoughts at this exact moment? "Man, I think he was my great grandfather?" "I need to brush my teeth" "I am going to be late- I   should Tweet that."
16. Name 3 things you bought yesterday? Nothing. I want to say "the farm," but that's not really funny.
17. Name 3 things you drink daily: Coffee, water, orange juice.
18. Current worry? The lateness thing. Also I haven't started my homework, and WHAT I have two days before Nanowrimo?!
19. Current dislike? This song that's playing.
20. How did you bring in the New Year? Chatting with a semi-conscious Sanna about books and stuff, listening to a drunken Robert tell me about parents and why travel is important, and playing with balloons.
21. Where would you like to go? America. Obviously. :P
22. Name three people who will complete this: Well, Dominic, since everyone has mentioned him now. And me. And I don't know?

24. What shirt are you wearing? The sweater-vest-cardigan-thing, under a denim shirt dress thing.
25. [We need to make something up to go here] Why are you doing this? Peer pressure! My peers apply pretty good pressure. Not heroin pressure, don't get excited, question two.
26. Favorite colour[s]? Blue, I guess. Oh and grey! Nearly forgot grey.
27. Could you be a pirate? Yes. Yes, I could. I imagine I am pretty good with a cutlass. And hats suit me.

29. Favourite food? PASTA
30. What’s in your pocket right now? Nothing. This dress has stupid pockets.

32. Favourite sheets? The supermassive sleeping bag I use instead of a duvet because it is SO WARM.
33. Worst injury you have ever had? I sprained my arm once? I don't really get injuries. Tweeting is pretty low-risk, y'know?
34. Do you love where you live? No. No, I really don't.
35. How many TVs do you have in your house? One. I don't use it much. My laptop is my TV.

[I am feeling rather | sleepy]
[In my ears is: |Letter to Memphis- Pixies]

Well, obviously, I can't blog now

Anything I say will be overshadowed by the antics of a certain pair of friends; but the less said about that, the better. 

But.

I'm going to blog anyway. Today has taught us a lot about how context affects blogging, but I don't care. Everyone's miles away, I have no-one to gush to, and god, I've got plenty to gush about

On something, probably. [Oct. 13th, 2009|09:55 pm]
What it is testament to- that is, what my blogging only about blogging is testament to- is that there is something I have not been blogging about. A significant part of my life, hidden from your view. Yes: I have been keeping a secret. Well, fuck it. I'm not so sure why it's a secret anymore, anyway.

It's not a big deal, so let's get it over with.

Dominic Fagan and I have been back together for a few weeks.

And, God, am I ever glad. In short, I love him.

(I didn't want to blog it; this makes it too big a deal. It's really not. But hey, it's not like I have terribly much conversation with most of you that I can drop it into.)

[I am |Library]
[I am feeling rather | thoughtful]

That I haven't blogged is testament to nothing- I am neither bored nor busy beyond reason. At times, I am of course these things; at other times, I am spending whole days reading TV Tropes. (It provides one with a new language for the discussion of pop culture; however, it is for the large part a self-contained language, and those that I know who speak it are few.

They are, however, existent, as much is existent. One problem with reading TV Tropes is that you begin to think of yourself and your life in its terms. Here I am, the Ordinary High School Student (except that I actually am not a witch or God or the one true heir to the throne of Lihe), sitting in the library, blogging because I have nothing else to do.

What has been happening? I have been at school, of course, doing all the ordinary school things, like learning and shit. I've been at work, doing all the ordinary work things like working and shit.  Life is, essentially, normal; and any variations on normality do not stand mentioning.

This kind of talk makes my life sound dull, perhaps even insuffrably so. My life has its plus points, of course it does. However, and unfortunately so, the things that make life good tend to be unbloggable, if only for the size of them. Certianly, it is true that the things that make life, as it were, worth living, are small, and therefore better suited to Twitter.

The fact that I mostly only blog about blogging these days may well be testament to something, however.
