Birthdays-continued?

Well, today was my birthday and no matter what, I find that on days that are set aside as special, for any reason, I get very upset. I think the reason for this is that I set high expectations for the days and those expectations aren't met. Now, I did not set high expectations for my birthday, I new better. I wasn't expecting awesome presents or a surprise or people singing to me down the halls. But I only got one "Happy Birthday." from anyone at school. Eventually I just told someone it was my birthday and as word spread around, people, who had already seen me that day, would say "Happy Birthday" to me and I would ask if my friend had told them and they would say "yes." I don't know. I think people remember things if they're either important or interesting, and I guess my birthday isn't either one.

What would you do if everyone forgot your birthday?

My Birthday!

I think birthdays are great.  I know they're just another day, that they're overrated, stressful, and often over-dramatic.  Often someone is left off of the invitation list and someone's feelings get hurt, but yet I still love them.  They're fun and exciting.  You get to make cakes and have fun with your friends.  My birthday is tomorrow, November 13th.  Now, if only I had been born on a Friday.

Right now, I haven't been writing much on here because of Nanowrimo, and plus, I'm going on vacation to Maui for 10 days.  I am losing 10 days for nanowrimo.  That's 16,000 words I have to make up.  So stressful, and I'm already behind.  I also have to make up work for all the classes I'm going to miss.

I've also gotten into music a lot recently, you know I listen to it while I write.  I've been ashamedly listening to Glee covers, unashamedly listening to Passion Pit and William Beckett.  Music really helps me right, otherwise I get sidetracked by watching snipits of Whose Line Is It Anyway on Youtube.

Where would you go, if you could go anywhere right now?

Background Music

I was watching the new movie by Disney today Wreck It Ralph in the cinema, and after it was over, I realized how much I love the music at the end of some movies.  Mostly, those movies that are completely unrealistic where everyone ends up happy and everything goes right.  I just love that music.  I don't know if it's because it is at the end of the movie or if it's just good music.  Because whenever I listen to the music again after that it is never as good.

Also, I love listening to music while doing everyday things.  You just feel like you have your own background music.  Especially if like the beat matches what you're doing.

By the way, Wreck It Ralph was a very good movie.  I got really excited when they had a little Skrillex being the DJ at the Fix It Felix's 30th anniversary party.

What is your favorite thing about the movies?

NANOWRIMO!!!!!

AHHHH!  So.... Nanowrimo just started and I need to get started, I've already started a few beginnings but I'm going to try something else.  I don't think I'll make it to 50,000 words but I sure will try.  I am doing so many things this month I just don't think I will.

Now for those of you who are lost, hello, Nanowrimo is National Novel Writing Month where you try to write a novel in a month that is at least 50,000 words.  I failed miserably last year but I am going to try hard this year.  Just to figure out what my book is going to be about.  You should try too.  It doesn't matter how bad the book is no one has to read it except you.  I think the feeling at the end will just be great though.  Having finished a whole novel.   Now, just to see what the book will turn out to be.  I hope you'll join me on my journey.

Are you participating in Nanowrimo this year?
