Ok, I havnt posted in, like, 2 or 3 weeks….Not like it matters,as I have only 1 reader
. I am going out of my mind because NaNoWriMo starts in 2 days….How nerve wracking is that? I have four chapters plotted out, more than half the characters, and I am STILL nervous! What the heck is wrong?? Well, I guess it could be just because this is my first time doing this….Ah, well….
Reading takes away the old
And turns it into the new
Reading gives me courage
To do the best I can do
Reading relives the stress
And gives me hope
While others play video games
Or skateboard down a slope
Reading takes me away
To places I’ve never been
like heavens golden archway
or Prancing Pony inn
Reading is what I love
Reading is what I do
And if you really try
You’d enjoy it too
Ok, I would’ve wrote this yeaterday, but I was too tired and lazy. I went to this car wash with my friend to try to help her raise money to go on this shcool trip to New York City. It was from noon to 6 p.m. We made $181 which isn’t nearly enough to go, but enough for the first payment. I now have sunburn on my back….ow…
Ok. One thing I want to talk about today is why I read. The question I am asked most at school is ‘Why do you read so much?? It’s boring!’ Well, I read because it’s something to do other than school or watch T.V all the time. Reading takes me to a place I have never been before. It takes away all problems and stress, and turns it into excitement as I turn the pages, soaking up everything I read. Reading helps get rid of bad memories or calms me down when I have had a crisis in my life…I should write a poem out of this… Well, thats the end of ADR number one. Hope it was entertaining :).
Well, it Friday (YES!!!) and the past week was uneventful. I did homework, schoolwork, and about every other boring thing you can think of. This weekend I plan to update my NaNo section of my blog (If I’m lucky) and work on my plot more (like it needs it). Sometime soon I shall start a new thing called my “Almost Daily Rant” or ADR for short. This is where I will rant about something that was nagging me in the back of my mind for the past few days. I will probably make a new page for it but maybe not…I need to experiment more with this…Well, more to come later!
Well, I stayed up late last night again, and I know it wont happen tonight because I have school tomorrow. I went to my fave music video site; launch.yahoo.com, and tried to play a music video, I got an error message that said I needed a newer version of Netscape, so I looked at what it does. It’s pretty nifty. My mom had Mozilla Firefox on here before anyway, and it is cool. It even has weather with it! I got the weather, since I was gonna get it anyway.
ok, I’m over reacting, but its early in the morning, you cant blame me…Ok, you can, but thats beside the point.
Ok. Talked to my mom about Netscape. She says it sucks and is HUGE. So I dont have it on here…Too bad…
If I got a coin for every time I’ve loved, yet lost again
Would I be rich beyond my dreams?
If I got a coin for every time I’ve not thought of you
Would I be in poverty beyond my imagination?
These things collide
Turning my life into a prison
I’ve loved you,yet hated you
These coins keep appering and dissolving
Leaving me with a half-empty jar
I want to leave these coins
To leave the memories of which I lost you
To forget these coins forever
That cannot happen unless I get one more coin
Showing your forgivness
If I got a coin for every time you’ve forgiven me
would it still be there?
Ok, a little vague, but so what? It will have a lot more detail in the actual novel. Chapter two: This one is so cliche, but who cares. I like these kind of stories, so why not write a novel like it? Chapter Three: This one was off the top of my head, there may be some improvs here and there, but this is it for now. Chapter Four Yet again, very cliche. But this chapter was already thought out when I started, I just didnt know where to put it. So here ya go. Tips are welcome, and questions are welcome, also.
Chapter one:
Lost
Three friends (Faye, Viv and Kat) find out that they can speak to each other with their minds while out on a camping trip with one of the friends newlywed parents(Brian and Geena). They go out for firewood and get lost.
A New Face
They walk around trying to find a familier path. Instaead, they find a mysterious man. The man tells them they are the chosen Dragon Masters and will discover their other powers as time goes on. He magically transports them back to the camp where they ponder this puzzling predicament.
Discovery
After coming home from their trip, the girls discover their second power; the power to transport to places they have been before. And to have all three transport at the same time to the same place while holding hands. Viv’s parents start arguing and her dad starts to get drunk and abusive. Viv stays at Faye’s house a lot in this chapter.
Back In The Woods
The three friends transport back to the woods to talk to the Old One about their powers, and whats to come. While they meet meet him there, he brings out three dragon eggs. He tells them to choose the dragon they want. he names the properties of each (because hes cool like that) and the friends choose. The Old One tells them that NO ONE can know about their powers, not even their parents. And he will watch the dragons because the friends tell him they have no place to raise them and they will come here every day after school.
Ok, I woke up this morning thinking ‘I need to check my e-mail and see if anyone on NaNo wants to chat’. The wonders of a laptop in my room. I was up till 12:30 last night. Not good. Although that might happen again today (shh, you didnt hear that), I’ll critisize myself for it until it acutally happens.
Falianna-â€Faye†Vivian-â€Viv†Katia-â€Kat†Old One- Mysterious man in the woods. I will have more here when my brain wants to work.
