Dream again.

Yeh. Had another interesting dream involving fighting and stuff, kind of mideavel (how on earth are you supposed to spell that??) but I can't really remember the details, only that I woke up and went 'that'd make a great story', but then my brother banged the shower door and made a racket and woke me up, and I thought my alarm clock had gone off and I was just going off back to sleep, but it was still ten minutes before it goes off, so I was annoyed and then I forgot the dream. Humph.

English revision sessions, band, and stuff.

Well. These English revision classes after school. I was going to one today. Absolutely shattered after PE (aerobics, we had a non-stop forty minute session, and I foolishly did the whole thing and didn't opt out part way through or for part of it), handed in my science book to Mr Benett, and then went off to English. There was a whole bunch of people waiting outside, people I kind of know for the most part, but none of my mates were there. They were all like 'what's she doing here? she doesn't need to revise.' and 'why's she come, now she'll make me look dumb'. I really, really hate that. I just wanted to do some revision in a group, but I came home instead, because there was no way I was going to stick myself in and be unwelcome. Should've just taken my clarinet and gone to band. Will do next week. Humph. Would've liked to go to band and all. It's kind of fun now I'm the only clarinet, and I've definately got better since I first started going, so it's not like it's way too hard for me.
I've got firefox now, seeing as my internet explorer kept crashing. I managed three times in a day, in just a few hours, which is pretty good (or bad) going really.
Why am I so clever? It's annoying sometimes, everyone starts looking at me for answers, and expects me to know everything and get everything right first time, but I can't always. Rachel was saying pretty much that in English about French, because half the class asks her for the answers. Hate French, mostly cos I'm sat on my bill on the opposite side of the classroom to everyone else. Grr.

Dream from Last Night

Yeh, just sticking this on too. Thought it ought to go on a seperate thing.
Basically, I was this guy, kind of like a knight, but more like a Prince, and the castle became mine because my dad died or something, and I was going to basically sell it all and get whatever I could out of it, but I changed my mind at the last minute because the people needed me and then there were witches and stuff and I was fighting them off, along with all these other strange creatures, and one of them was made out of donuts. There you go. Strange dream.
And then, in another part of it, maybe before all that, maybe just a different dream, but kind of linked I think, I was talking with all the folks from the Harris under this shelter kind of thing that felt like indoors but was open on the sides. It was pretty cool. Can't remember what we were talking about.
Shall dissup from the blog and go to the forum now. I think. NaNoCoMo if you're interested. Good place, lots of nice people there.

Hi. Just a kind of rant/update/don't really know

Hello.
Ranting slightly. Why do I have to account for every second of my life? Why?! I'm annoyed. Other than that, why are there no monkey bars that are my size around here. Shall have to persuade parents to take me to Longridge, Naomi said there were some there. Haven't been on monkey bars for ages cos I'm too big.
Sick of being used as an answer book. Considering refusing to answer any questions pointed my way, or answer them wrong, but that wouldn't be very friendly. Oh well. Only a few more months to go, and then a new start, a new life, and a new bunch of friends. Hmm. Like to keep in touch with the old. Shall have to persuade us to have a collective blog type thing or something similar. Don't know.
Can I use *these* in English exams I wonder? Put them in my RE work today. Hmm. I wonder what Mrs Farrell would say. Probably something along the lines of 'humph, that's not proper English, disappointed in you'. She was disappointed in me for not liking Jane Eyre. Honestly, I've never read such absolute rubbish in my life. It's as bad as Paddy Clark, Ha, Ha, Ha, which is even more random and off on one than this, and this is allowed to be because it's just my randomness.
Rhea's starting a blog too. They've all had a look in IT. Probably one of the boringest subjects on the planet, down there with Physics, PE and French. Grr, why did I pick French? Why do I have to sit on my bill and turn round and work with Muneeb and Chloe when we do pair work? They absolutely do my head in. Chloe can be all right sometimes I guess, but Muneeb is just a prat and he ought to be shot and hung and whatever else. Maybe not very Christian, but how I feel.
There we go, update complete methinks. Can't be bothered rambling any more. And I don't like the other blog on LiveJournal, it's too complex. Think I'll abandon it and just stick to here and stick my dreams on here.

Having to account for every second of my life...

Grr. Came home from school and my mum was like 'think you're spending too much time playing games on the computer, keep a note of when you go on and how long you're on for'. Turns out that includes updating this and my other blogs, and writing stories, and going on forums, and presumably checking e-mail, reading, doing my Distance Learning course, and pretty much my entire life. Argh!! Why can't they just leave me alone? This is good for me, means I can meet new people and stuff. Humph. I like blogging and posting on forums, and I am not going to stop doing that or writing, or reading, just because they think I'm spending too much time 'playing'. What else am I supposed to do? I've done all my homework, I'm not behind in anything, in most subjects I'm actually ahead where I can be (Textiles, English), History I'm so fast at typing I'll be done miles before everyone else, Maths is just maths, French is hard but I'm keeping on top of it, and everything else, just humph. I'm annoyed, as you can probably tell.

Well, I must update my other blog, so farewell and I hope your parents never spring anything as nasty and control freakish as this on you.

Oh yeh, forgot to say before...

A* in French speaking mock, yay! Now I just need to memorise all the rest of the ones we've still got to do. And properly memorise the others. Forgot some of the stuff, wound up saying things like 'I like history... um... because... um... I like history.' Oops. Obviously didn't matter all that much.

Christmas meal was good

Yep, that's right. Our church Christmas meal was last night. Good food, and lively company. Had a great time. Tired now, but I'm awake and can't get back to sleep. Humph.
Did you konw taht eevn thoguh tihs lokos bad, you can siltl udersntad it bceasue yuor barin deosn't raed the idinvdiaul ltetres but the wlohe wrod? Probably. I've seen this more times than I can remember, just randomly decided to post it on here.

Writing Update, yay!

Finished One For Sorrow. Hopefully the editing I will have to do at some point - no story is perfect first time - is not too much. I'm chuffed. Ok, so it's the first in what will probably be a seven or eight book series, but let's not worry too much about the rest of it for now. That can come later, when I've written some more of the stuff on my list of goals. Maybe I'll bob over to my angel series and have a stab at one of those, either the first or the fourth I think. The new fourth that is. I still have like what? Ten minutes before I'm supposed to go to bed. Maybe I won't get any more done. Still. I'm chuffed.

Yo Folks. Writing update.

Hi. Ok, basically my writing update runs as follows:
* Two blogs. This one and http://nutmegangel.blogspot.com, which is a roleplay one where I'm writing as my main character in my main series.
* Happy Endings - A historical romance/action set in the 1920s in America involving prohibition, pilots, evil uncles, gangs and racism.
* Nutmeg Angel - My first story, going through what, fingers crossed, will be the final edit. I just need to add a scene and make another more important and I'm done.
* Fantasy, as yet untitled, provisionally Tokoyo's Story - A retelling of a Japanese legend and kind of some Celtic legends and kind of some other bits of Japanese legends too. It's basically a mix and match of every single legend that has caught my eye so far, but the main plot line follows a Tuatha De Denann (kind of replacing humans) and her search for her father who disappered from the Land of the Exiles. She's not the most adventurous of people, and she meets a whole host of strange creatures who help or hinder her on her journey, and force her not to give in.
* Seeking Truth, though the title may change - Sixth or seventh book in my series about Nutmeg, involving Scotland, metal arms, demons (of course), Sammy playing a big part, a girl called Cara (or something like that) who is sure she has something important to tell the people she was with before she died and was re-enstated in a different part of heaven, but has no idea how to go about doing it, and an orphan girl possibly. Depends whether I have room. The big battle looks like it may have to wait for the next book.
* Stolen Faith, the reason I'm not sure whether Seeking Truth is the sixth or seventh book - I really want to write this one about Sammy after the car crash and her disastrous marriage to Ben followed by a re-marriage to Red.
* One For Sorrow - the first book in a series about a young Birdie and his struggle for acceptance amongst Pures and his fight against Craig and his job as a cop and how that conflicts wiht his faith and his revolutionary sympathies.
* Winged Fire - Book two in my series about Nutmeg, needs editing.
* Broken Sky, Chain Heart, Twisting Fate - Books three, four and five in my series about Nutmeg, need typing up and editing.
* Sky Dancer - my nanowrimo (see http://www.nanowrimo.org) 07 novel, needs editing extensively.
* Dancing Flame - sequal to Sky Dancer, needs writing.
* A Crash Course In Landing - need to decide where on earth I'm going with that thing, or even if I'm going to continue it.
* Mateo and Ashnin's Story - needs typing up and completing at some point. It's not a bad story really, just very Brain Jacques'y.
Umm.... Think that's about it. If I come up with any more, I'll tell you.

More Results...

Yup. A* in French speaking mock, which was the one I was most worried about. Guess I don't really have all that much to worry about :). I had a strange dream, but can't remember it now. Oh well.

Whooo!

Got an A* in my History mock, yay! Now I've just the French results to wait for. Hope I did ok on the speaking. We shall see.
Struck by an interesting idea last night in a dream. It involved kamikazee planes but they weren't quite planes, they were like my wasps in a different story (powered hang glider type things), and it was also a little like the gladiator contests in the Roman Empire. Hmm.... Shall write more of my dreams on here I think. It's as good a place as any for them.

Back to school :(

No.... School again tomorrow. Oops about the History homework, which I forgot to properly write down and so I don't have a clue what I'm supposed to do, but oh well, I'll ask Rhea tomorrow. Or Liv. Or somebody, anybody, who might have a vague idea of what we were supposed to do. I'm pretty sure it was research on something, but I'm not entirely sure what we're supposed to have been researching.
Found some other homework this morning -- Short Course RE. Oops about that as well, but it's done now. It's wierd, but I've had way more homework from short course than from long course. As in, other than catching up and revision I don't think I've had any RE since Febuary.
Oh well. I suppose I'll survive. It's not as though I have all that much school left now. Well, I finish early cos of GCSE's, so I reckon we'll be all done with school after the end of May, exams and all. Then I just have to go in and get my results. Then I'll start at college. Ooh, scary. I hope I get into Cardinal Newman. It's so pretty, all covered in ivy and stuff. I'm setting part of the story after this one (think it's probably going to be called Dark Light or possibly Seeking Truth or maybe Crashing Clouds, but it'll be book... 8 I would've thought. Assuming I get on and write Sammy's story that needs writing, which'll go in between the current books 3 and 4. I think I'm going to be forced on a walk soon. Hope not. Maybe I can wiggle out of it somehow or other. Need an excuse. Um... Ate too much for lunch. Um... Back ache.... Didn't sleep well?? Never mind. I'll survive. I hope. If there aren't any more posts on here, you'll know it's becasue I died.

Word count hmm...

so far this year, my average daily word count is 7146 words, which I reckon is pretty impressive. There are a few rants in the middle of stuff, but for the most part it's all relevant and good and whatever. I'm addicted to thirty minute word wars though. I will get over 2000 in one, I will...

Hey folks!

I managed over 10000 words yesterday!!! Good start to the year. Now I just need to do some work on my correspondance course.
We managed Liverpool on the 31st. It was so quiet! Hardly anyone about, though it did start getting a little busier after 2. Spent pretty much all of my Christmas money now. Still, I did get a CD, book and some clothes, so I didn't do too bad. I love Mathew Reilly's books, they're absolutely great. And Mika's top! Love the CD. Now I've just got to figure out how to use iTunes store and download a bunch of stuff.

Happy New Year!

Well folks, this is it. Let's see if I can keep this blog up to date along with all the school stuff that needs doing. Wonder how many words it's possible to write in a day. I'm working on One For Sorrow at the moment, and I managed about 7000 on Sunday, and I didn't even use the whole day then. See if I can manage 10000 for the first time ever, maybe even more than that. We shall have to wait and see, shan't we?
