SO Halloween was cool. Went to Cheeseman (i.e the super haunted park) but this time the only oddness was a very sudden cold spot, which this dog kept barking at.
Then came home and played rockband and watched parts of a bunch of scary movies. Syd was a fucking adorable bee.
No picture tho. D:
Annnnd I had a bunch more to post with. But eh.
Me and Preston were talking about Nanowrimo (Which I think I already gave up on. Go me.) Which he is pretty against. And like...I didn't understand at first because I'm not around these people anymore, but he reminded me...all the people who devote their month and think they're going to come out with some epic piece of writing. And yeah, they use to piss me off too.
No. You're missing the point. Nanowrimo isn't to write something GOOD. It's to learn to let of the fear of failure. To learn to finish something. Not to write the next great novel. At best you should end up with a first draft. If you end up with something GOOD you are a freak of writing nature. Nanowrimo is all about quantity, fuck quality. It's a GREAT thing, a great exercise, but it's also that. An exercise.
I bet Twilight started as a Nanowrimo novel XD
Oh and my belly dancing DVD rocked but I hurt D:
