Camp NaNo: Days 23 - 26

Okay, so now I can't even manage my blog. Fricken hell!

Wordcount: 38028.

ARGHHH!!! I hate school sometimes!! Interfering with my writing!!... In any case, I managed to do 2,000-ish words last night - go me! I still am about 3-4000 words behind! I've really gotta step it up.

(How the hell was this so relatively easy last November!?)

This is Shi, with this expression: O.o

Camp NaNo: Days 18 - 23

Well, I didn't update every day like I wanted to. The reason is, schools started again. In a fit of depression, angst and procrastination by sleep, I didn't write anything. My wordcount has stagnated at: 33149

Now, guess who is behind?? That's right!! Me!

So I'm going to try to catch up over the weekend, and study, and do all my homework, and clean my room, and learn a new song on guitar for a performance in 2 weeks.

This is Shi, deciding to engage in a liiiittle bit of procrastination...

Camp NaNo: Day 17

Whoops, forgot again!

Wordcount: 30099

Let me see, what happened yesterday.... ah, yes. I finished the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time game, which awesome and kinda depressing. In honour of my victory over Ganon, I made celebratory Gold Skultulas - spiders with coffee-flavoured energy drink instead of soft drink.

They were quite disgusting.

After that, I did some writing. I think I mentioned that I just skipped the part of my NaNo novel that was giving me grief, and moved on. After a dramatic war scene involving much research, I called it a night. But now I'm sure sure what I'm doing. It's a new chapter, but I'm not sure if I should write more about the war or skip to a different part. I mean, I can and definitely will rewrite it, but... I like the story to still flow well in the first draft.

Hmm, a dilemma.

This is Shi, wondering what to do next, exactly....

Camp NaNo: Day 16

Wordcount: 29163

I skipped the chapter I was having trouble with. Now, my main problem is that I don't remember much about medieval warfare. I used to know so much! Mostly from just reading tons of fantasy books, and a general interest, but it's all been pushed out of my mind by the constitutional rights of Australia and the anatomy of the brain.

Yeah, I really need to do some homework too.

This is Shi, really wishing the holidays weren't nearly over.

Camp NaNo: Day 15

Wordcount: same as yesterday.

Today was very unproductive. *sigh*.

This is Shi, deciding to make tomorrow much better.

This is Shi, in despair....
