that would be a very good band name...
or a song.
huh.
anyways! the reason i've made such a scathing observation is because i am now done with it.
never again in this life shall i be required to participate in Physical Education.
(innuendo people: get your mind out of the gutter! i'm talking to you, walrus!)
and yet, as though fate is punishing me, two days later.
i
am
still
sore.
doing forward and backward lunges have given me fantastically strong thighs.
i could kick the hulk out a window.
well. maybe not the hulk...maybe mr. fantastic.
he's not very big.
in other, non-whiny news:
i get to go see Alphabeat in four days!
oh. and Katy Perry. i like her a lot, but i
LOVE Alphabeat.
they're amazing.

book suggestion of the day: Identical by Ellen Hopkins
(which, by the way, is not for those who enjoy happy endings.
if you like depressing endings, stories filled with self-abuse and tragic families, then this is the novel for you, my friend.)

oh.my.goodness.
sooo...i've mentioned John Green (i've decided that awesome authors get their names colored in lilac. i know its girly. sorry, John!) before
(notice: capitals where there supposed to be. which means he's brilliant.)
who is an amazingly spectacular author
(if you haven't, go read Looking For Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines, and Paper Towns. they are all perfect pieces of literature. i kid you not.)
but i have not mentioned Sarah Dessen, who is also spectacular.
i've realized that i have something in common with Sarah Dessen.
we have rather similar writing techniques. albeit, mine is not as polished or fantastic or amazing or brilliant. but similar.
which is something that my lovely friend kristy pointed out to me after reading the first few chapters of the book i had attempted to write for NANOWRIMO(NAtional NOvel WRIting MOnth)
(John Green calls it NAFADOYBIMSCOM. which is an amazing acronym meaning NAtional Finish A Draft Of Your Book I Mean, Seriously, Come On. do we see why he's amazing?)
(all these parenthesis make it hard to read this blog...oh well.)
anyways.
kristy told me this, and my voice got rather squeaky as it does when i'm ecstatic, and i was grinning like an insane person.
i mean, my friend, my very honest friend, tells me that i write like a New York Times Bestseller? like i'm going to be nonchalant about that. puh-lease.
so in order to make my work unique, and not suck-ish, i'm going to make january/febuary NAFADOYBIMSCOM for me personally.
you can do it was well.
you should.
unless you don't enjoy writing, then...you probably shouldn't.
but i shall have a first draft!
with god as my witness, i shall have a first draft by march 1st!
that is all for now.
