And you KNOW I'm doing it. Even though I'm in public school, which = much less writing time. Even though I'm 13, and thusly am doing the official, adult NaNo, which means that I'll have to do 50k words which is going to be crazy hard.
It's good to push yourself, right?
So, official declaration: I IZ A PARTICIPANT. Or, er, I'm trying. (And killing fruit flies. Is anyone else having a major epidemic of fruit flies like we are? It's extremely annoying.)
I was going to upload a prettyful web badge or two just to prove it, but apparently that is beyond me, plus they all still say NaNoWriMo 2008. So that'll have to wait. However, I'll post some as soon as they become officially available.

inspiration journals, i haz one
Has anyone here heard of inspiration journals/notebooks/idea notebooks?
What they are (if you haven't) is basically a notebook in which you can put anything. You can journal in it, write down ideas, tape in pictures, sketch designs...whatever you want. It's funfun. I only have a little, but I think I'll get more fast. It's nice to write something that doesn't have real standards; that you don't have to worry about other people seeing.
School's going very well, starts again tomorrow. Yay!

obviously, i am a brilliant and consistent blogger
...or not.
Sorry, people, I just got all busy all of a sudden! School is the primary source for my busyness. Since I still have homework to do, this will be a short post.
Today I got my hands on a copy of Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins. It's the sequel to the fabulous Hunger Games, and I was waiting with baited breath for this book! I am SO glad to have it, and am about a fourth of the way through it. Am reading fast, though, so it may not be long. I'll try to post a nice, un-spoilery review of it when I do finish.
My writing has been suffering from my return to public school, though I'm finding time here and there, mostly on the weekends. Okay, ENTIRELY on the weekends. But it's still happening, just at a much slower pace than it used to.
Snakes, lizards, toads, and turtles! I love 'em. Am going with a bunch of herpetologists (that's people who study reptiles and amphibians, btw) to check their traps! It promises to be really fun.
Now, I suppose I should work on some algebra hw, but I think I'll do that tomorrow. Tonight, I am going to just read!!!
