bex: I Second the Motion. No new ideas. No new writing. I'm still in 14k. it's a little depressing, but I think that perhaps I'll pick it back up in December. Part o me kinda knew this would happen xD, but I don't regret it because now I have a pretty awesome story idea xD. I just have to finish it... sometime soon... Bah.

Terrible Thursdays

Bex: Ughhh So I went to get fingerprinted today. And the first time I went they said they couldn't do my prints because my paperwork wasn't right. So I ran around trying to fix my paperwork, and then got Soul to drive me back to the fingerprinting place (Because I was nottt gonna drive to that scary section of town by myself!) and then the lady said her computer wasn't working and that I'd have to come back in TWO WEEKS! UGHHHH! And so today felt like a circus because I did so much running around and I STILL have school to do! UGHHH! DOUBLE UGGHHH!!! This sucks baloney. bleh.
I don't think my friends (And sister and boyfriend, but they all are included in "friends")will come back to this... Oh well.
Oh. And I won't be able to update for a while cuz I'm going out of town for nearly a week starting tomorrow. If I do update it means that I found wi-fi xDDDDDD
Laterz.

The Mysterious Tuesday Disappearance

Bex: Yeah um... Tuesday we all just kinda went "poof" Well actually the four of us went Christmas shopping- Nao And I actually window shopped and Soul, War, and their sister (My best frand and husband/wife XD- long story, tell ya later xD) discovered that sometimes I use very strong (sometimes inappropriate) adjectives xD Such as, "oh-em-gee, I totally lust after (insert random item here)" haha!
Anyways, so that's where we all were yesterday. I am so far behind in my word count it feels. I probably won't reach 50k until december.... In other news. I drew a girl in my pajammas. What she was doing in my pajammas I'll never know, but she made them look hot so I'm glad she could pull it off xD
Ugh. I have school to do so I'll catcha lata!

Oh Where, Oh Where...

Bex:Have My Little Friends Gone?
Oh where, oh where can they be? Haha, well none of my friends (Sister/boyfriend/etc.) could be described as little, but you get the picture. They have all seemingly disappeared. I'm not too worried about Soul, because I know he works late shifts, so I don't expect him to keep up with this- as for War, I don't expect him to keep up with this either, because he probably forgot about it and he's probably also got a lot more on his plate with the whole, "Getting school credit for NaNo" thing. But Nao. Nao I expected to be a little more good with this- she being my most fastidious sister, and such. But oh well.
I suppose I only keep up with this because of my excitement xD. NaNo is exciting and new and just all around wonderful to me, and so it is my excitement that fuels me to keep going. I love to get together with the ladies and gents in our region, and I love talking about my novel with everyone and anyone who will listen to me! It's just so much fun to watch my characters take on their own lives and paths and tell me how they feel about it all!
Anyways. That's all for me. I have to go get out of my PJs since I been in them all day...

Saturday Write-In 11/15

Bex: Ahhh I love word wars! So uber productive! I broke 14k! I'm so exciteddd! And Now I'm exhausted, can't write more I think xD Maybe I will. Dunno xD

TGIF!

Bex: Yeah, all I can say is- thank goodness it's Friday!! Now I really want chicken at like Bee-dubs... (Buffalo Wild Wings xD) I seriously wish I had money- but I came to the realization that I am broke. Like not-even-funny broke. I'll have to twist Nao's arm for gas money if she wants to go to the Harry Potter thing- and I'm gonna learn how to take the bus on Saturday because I think that's how we're getting to the Write-in in P-Town.
All for Wicked. All for Wicked... Have to keep reminding myself that- I'm doing this for the most awesome musical ever, and it's going to be awesome because meh littlest sister will be going with me as well as my two favorite cousins! Sure I'm probably not doing to drive anywhere in December, and sure I'm going to be in major debt with my parents, SURE I'll pay them interest! And why?? Because I have expensive hobbies/tastes/obsessions/etc.
I feel very un-productive this week when it comes to writing. I have all these awesome scenes in my head but because I want to write my book in order I can't write them yet so I have to slog through all the boring yet important scenes to get to them. Plus i feel like life suddenly pounced on me saying "Hey, you don't have time to ignore me to write!" and it got revenge by giving me this freakin' cold!
Speaking of colds, do you know what my mom did to me today? You know how I have this weird thing about drowning, right? Well my nose is all plugged up and she says she has something that helps. She gets this blue little kettle/pot thingy. And she puts this weird stuff in it with some warm water and then tells me to bend over the sing and turn my head sideways. AND THEN SHE POURS THE STUFF INTO MY NOSE! And it comes out the other nostril and it was just nasty and I had that drowning sensation that I hate, and sure my nasal passages were clear for all of like a minute and then my nose got back to over producing. BAH. Life.

Someone Hit Slow-Mo, Please?

Bex: WOW, I feel like it's been a month already- and it's only been almost two weeks. I need a slo-mo button on my life, man. Totally need a slo-mo button. I did end up going to the Write-In last night, but only cause I finished my school and had to pick up Nao and War anyways xDD And then I got to war with Grouchmuffin for like 20-25 minutes in the AM (Like 12:10 xDD) So I finally broke 10k! Which means I'm at 11k xD haha.
Tonight's band practice, so not much writing shall be done today. I'm really hoping that friday night I can get someone into the chat pod to war with me untill the wee hours of saturday when I shall wake Nao up to get to the Write in! Muahahaha, my eeee-vile plot shall be amazing!

War:

Nao: I'm too tired, YOU hit the Slow-Mo.
I HAVE been tired lately, and I think it's from lack of sleep. Maybe it's stress. War was saying something about how stressed I was, but I didn't want to believe him...maybe he was right. I feel extremely behind in my NaNoing and I have just barely reached 9k. It's sad. I have officially written more on teh computer than I have on my notepad so now I am no longer using the notebook. This will be difficult on Saturday, because me and Bex SHARE one computer. I may just have to resort back to the notebook again =__=
I was wrong in my last post when I said that we had nothing to do on Fridays; we were planning on going to a Harry Potter Marathon at teh library, but we're thinking of canceling that....maybe we'll just NaNo with War or something instead.
I still have a scenario in my head that I want to write badly but every time I get around to actually writing I freeze up. This obviously shows that I cave under pressure, but I plan on sitting at this computer until it is over and done with and I have at LEAST written another 1k. I don't care if it takes me until 1 AM, although it would suck if I got grounded because of it. Well hey, at least I could say I got grounded for NaNoing...>_<
.....I better get to doing some writing, huh? It's someone else's turn to hit the Slow-Mo o_o

Write-In @ Panera 11/11

Bex: Is not going to the Write in =(
So yeah, I can't go to the write in because tonight is my volunteer night at Fuel, where I'm a student leader. And I might not be able to even go to that if I don't get my school done... I'm behind and to make matters worse, my online economics class expired so I can't complete it! DANGIT! It stresses me out. So much so that I just poured myself a couple glasses of coffee. I don't care anymore. I will drink coffee if I want to dangit. And if my mom's worried about staining my teeth I'll just bush em till my gums bleed. I am just so beyond caring right now... Blehhhh.
The past few days have been crap with the writing, I have another dialogue to get through- and it's hard since I don't have a word war to push me to get it done.
I think it's about ready to come to a close anyways, so it shouldn't be so bad... bleh. later.

War:

Nao: Hooray for being early
Me and War arrived at teh Panera for the write-in early. We got here at exactly 5:30....the write in starts at 6:30 XD. Anyway, we still have another few minutes before people arrive to NaNo and I just have to say...I don't like being the first persons here. A)We had to find seating and-since Panera is so packed-we could only find seating for ourselves B) We are at a disadvantage since we are located in an area where we won't be able to tell if the NaNoers enter Panera and C) we will most likely end up packing up and moving because there isn't enough seating where we are. If you couldn't already tell, I'm nervous =__=


Soul:

Colds and Coughdrops.

Bex: Well, got ONE of the boys back, only to lose meh sister Nao... And where is teh boyfriend, Soul? Yeesh.
I feel so yucky lately. I might be catching a cold. It sucks baloney. Big time. And I'm behind a day in my word count! UGH! Yesterday I could NOT find the time to write, not to mention my muse just up and LEFT me when the cold came in and now I'm just trying to get her back. So in the meantime I'll write some crap that will probably be the first thing to get hacked out in December.
Dude, this random guy just jumped into my story and at first I thought he was just one of those guys who comes in and then you never learn anythign about him till maybe the sequel, but NO- he's like, got some major history with one of my main characters which in effect makes him a secondary character!
CRAZY! Anyways, I'm gonna go make some more tea. Laters.

War:

Nao: Stress makes Nao a Bad Bunny o_o
I've been feeling a little bit under the weather myself, lately, but I'm not in desperate need of cough drops yet. Teh reason I've been gone for a little while is....well...there really is no other excuse to give except for a slightly busy week schedule. As War said in his previous posts, he was going to 'seclude himself' but that won't be the case this week. I went to his house the other day because I had orchestra practice in his area of town (I play the violin, it rocks!! >_<) and my younger sis had driver's ed there, so I was going to hang out for an hour and a half or so. Needless to say, he didn't get any writing done while I was there. Today (Tuesday) is Anime Club at our local library, which he is attending with us. on Wednesday is another NaNoWriMo write-in at a Panera in my area of town, and only me and War can make it so we're going to that at 6:30. Then on Thursday is band practice, of which I play the piano and sing occasionally. Fridays are nothing, but there's always room for scheduling writing time with buddies like War and Soul, so you never know o.o
As you can see, my week has been jam packed from beginning to end and I've found myself quite stressed out lately. Not to mention that-when I NaNo-I write using a notebook, so I haven't found time to get on and type up the rest of my story. I happened to finish typing up what I had written during last week, but it turns out that I've only written up to 7,000+ words, which pales in comparison to my own sister's 9,000+ words and my other fellow veteran NaNo writers who have already surpassed 22,000+ words. Inspiration has left me also, and so has the dedication to my writing. The cold is getting to me O_O. I only hope I can keep up this week.

Soul: lol srry i just havnt had anything to post, i havnt written anything latly cause i dont have any good ideas. so maybe ill have some ideas later i hope so but i have to work tonight so ill probly not be sleeping anytime soon

Staurday Write-In 11/7

Bex: Huzzah, I'm going to participate in the hour long word war! This is gonna rawk xDD
Write-in has been pretty awesome I broke 8000+ so I'm pretty psyched, and in the word war I should be getting some pretty good numbers in!
SO I'm taking a little break to blog afore 12:30. whoo... update ya later....
Alright! Wow, it's been a long day xD my wordcount is now 9000+ which is 2000 less than I wanted, but it's totally fine, I'll catch up to that tomorreh!
So anyways, Peoria area won the word war this afternoon! And I found the Write-in to be super uber productive, and fun as well! I love meeting other writers, they're all just made of awesome to use GrouchMuffin's term xDD
Anyways, I are gonna get off. Laterz!

War: A Word to remember.
Ok, so I also participated in the write-in but i only got out about a thousand words. But I am happy that i participated in the first word war and actualy won it with close to 500 words in 10 minutes.
As I was sitting here typing out this post i forgot the emportance of the title. so im just going to leave it as is.
As always; thank you for reading.

Where are the Boys?

Bex: Well, I don't know where our boys have got themselves to... Did some hardcore writing last night, have yet to type it up. Still behind in my goal- ah well, I shall soon catch up if I remain positive about it!
Soooo! After being woken up by War to tell him that no I cannot go to a book sale today, my grownup friend (The one I called yesterday, remember?) called me to tell me she had called her friend who works at a daycare and yes they have one position open and I can come in today to pick up an application and see the center! AHHHHH! I'm going to get a job maybe possibly almost!
Oooh and I'm taking my youngest sister to Kansas City in a few weeks so we can see Wicked with our cousins! AHHH! And I got the tickets cheaper than I expected! I'm so thrilled! And TOMORROW is the Write-In and I'm UBER excited about that! Like this whole week I've been geeking out about NaNo to anyone and everyone who will listen!
One last scream for good measure- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Okay, good... updatcha on my word count later or possibly tomorrow xD

War: Cave man not wanna come out to play!
Ok, so heres whats up. I think I'm going to compleatly sucluded myself from almost anything this coming week. Of course theres an Anime Convention I promised i would go to on tuesday. Other then that all I have to worry about is 15 hours of work, band prax, church and possible going to Nao's house on wendsday so I can actualy spend a day with a friend. Right so other then that I plan on spending edvery waking moment in front of my computer working on my novel.
Speeking of my Novel, I still have yet to think up a title, even one just teperrary. Lastly Im lagging in the rear with 3800 and somthing. I really need to spend more time writing.
Yea, so that should really be about it.
Thanks for reading.

Word Counts and Such

Bex: Well, so far my word count is 4,227- I need at least 4,000 more words to catch up to my daily goal of what it's supposed to be! I never thought writing could start to become a challenge like this... Anyways, I'm almost done with my first chapter, my character just has to come upon a shocking revelation or two and then I can start the second chapter which will be awesommmee!
So in other news, I feel really good about today because I was babysitting for my church and I only had like three kids, and I noticed this one mom hadn't come in, and she's a really great woman and she prays for me about my job situation and so I thought I'd call her today- in fact I just got off the phone with her- and ask how she was and if anyone in her family was sick. Turns out her two kids have the flu, but she was glad to just take a break and hang out with her kids all day =). And she might get me a job at a daycare! She was so tickled that I had actually called to ask after her health! Like teenagers aren't inclined to do that... Well okay maybe they're not normally, but hey, I'm not a normal teenager...
Yeah. I go type up novel now... kthnxbye.

War:

Nao: I also haven't reached my daily goal like I'm supposed to (Today's goal being around 8,000) but then again, it's midnight, so I have the rest of the day to write another 4,000 words. That's right, my word count is up to 4,894. I still have a long ways to go, and the goals keep getting bigger and bigger, but with any luck-and a LOT of patience-I might actually catch up to the high expectations that NaNoWriMo keeps throwing out. I've come to the conclusion that the title of my novel (Mirror Glass Lake) is a bit long and I think I plan to change it in December....I THINK...it took me forever just to type up the more than 2,000 words I wrote in my notebook at least two days ago. It wasn't a lot of words to begin with and I expanded a little upon typing it up on the computer, but I'm happy to report that so far, so good. Life is tiring. We all know this to be true, and today I experienced one of the more harrowing and humiliating times in a person's life; driver's exams. I would have passed with flying colors, but due to circumstances(I accidentally ran over a curb) I was failed immediately. I took the test an hour or so later and they passed me, but not after I had spent the past hour with nothing but my thoughts telling me over and over again that I suck for failing XD. Needless to say-and to make a long story short-I now have my driver's license and I officially roam the streets. Beware. And now I must retire, because my eyes hurt and it's waaay past the time when I'm supposed to be on the computer. Happy novel-writing. ;P

Soul:

Now that the introductions are thru...

Bex:
We're going to switch to a new format =)
We'll all edit the same post to add our input! I know it might sound a little confusing, but this is easier than having to look for someone's post! I'll leave space for everyone so you know where they are xDD
Anyways, I think I achieved at least a thousand words last night whilst writing in bed! I do all my best thinking at night when I'm going to bed xD
I have yet to actually type it up on my MS Word doc and then put it on NaNo for the word count... I'll have to update that laterz =P

War: You know, its really hard to eat noodles with a spoon.
That is an unimportant subject though, more inportantly is that I have gone over my story and gave myself a rough draft of its plot line and character develepments. I also have only 2120 word so far, as such, I am behind on how much i should have alread so its back to writing.
-War.

Nao:
Well, I can't say exactly how many words I've actually written so far, and I also got wrapped up in a Manga before I went to bed, so I'm not really sure if I'm doing so well. I have yet to type up the other half of my novel which would make it only my second time typing it up on the computer. I'm not sure if that should worry me or not, but I'm going to say that I should probably step up and get some serious writing done. As Bex has already stated, she does her best thinking at night. In response to that, I would have to say that I do my bestest ever thinking in the shower XD
I had better get to typing....

Soul:sweet

hey im soul and im not always goofy ( just a lot of the time XD) and i am a demonmuffin bwahahahahaha!!! and yes if your wondering i do have muffin hordes and theres a lot of them ooh and theres an odd ball in the hordes............ hes a bagel and everybody picks on him but thats a story for another time.

This is Weird...

This is actually my first time looking , typing and reading a blog. I didn't know things like this existed. I'm not in the least sorry to say that the description of me was not only crazy, but down-right scarily accurate. For all of you fellow Manga and Anime fans out there, you ROCK!!!
Anyway, I look forward to learning more about this stereotyped myth known as a BLOG.

The Me Post.

Right so, I really didnt care for the discription that Bex gave of me, so heres me as I see me.

Im a big gamer, and fantisy reader/writer. Im also a romantic and love to writen poems. as well as being tech savvy Im also a really quick learner and if i dont know the answer and cant find it somewhere, I make it one up!
Yea, arguing is fun! Yea that should really be it.

The Beginning of an adventure!

Hey, Bex here (Or Fictiious.Reality91) starting off the beginning of this crazy thing with a sort of explanation of what this blog is!
Welcome to NaNo WriMo SloMo! (National Novel Writing Month, Slow Motion xD), a place where you can read about me and my friends' first year of NaNo and where we can hit SloMo and relax a bit after all the typing we've done, or just to warm our fingers up!
As the description says, there are four of us (So far).
Fictiious.Reality91
Lillypad1993
The_Broken_Warrior
and Silversoul.
All of us will update this blog at some point or another, giving updates on word counts, babbling about silly novel things, or just complaining about life during NaNo WriMo 2009!
Hope you have fun, and happy reading!
