I'm uber-freaking-bored. I don't get this way a whole lot. OKAY maybe a lot but still, I can't stand this. I feel terrible for not getting stuff done today. -Waves arms around.- I'm going to get started on some stuff soon, but for now... I think I'd like to share some of my story "Glow" with you.
I woke with a start the next morning. I was hot and clammy, my legs felt weak and shaky as if I’d been running in my sleep. I couldn’t remember the nightmare that had just ended; only that it was a terrible, lonely one. I sat for a moment and gathered my calm. I walked shakily over to my window and opened the blinds. No reason to be worried about neighbors peeking, I thought. (Note: Shelby just moved to the middle of nowhere. The middle of a forest. Her closest nieghbor is a long ways away, in another part of the forest.) The sun shone into my window and illuminated my nearly empty room giving it a new warmth and friendliness. I unlocked the old window and pulled up, but the window stuck. I tried pushing the top up. It didn’t give. I stood back and looked over the window again. I pulled the blinds open higher only to reveal a wooden plank jammed into the top part of the window, preventing its opening. I tugged at the block of wood for a moment until it popped out of place. I tossed it into the corner of my room and tried to open the window again. This time I was successful. The window groaned and complained as a nice morning breeze drifted in through the screen.
Whoohoo, two paragraphs. It's all I really got done today. Shelby had a nightmare, go figure. Her life is only tormented by demons that feed off of people's luck. (Which is luck. If you're unlucky, you die. You know? And it doesn't help that Shelby has an enormous ammount of this luck, the likes of which demons can't stay away from. Poor Shelby. I'm thinking about ending the story in a tragic, dramatic way. The question is: Who will die? I could kill Shelby. Or I could kill William. I could kill off Shelby's family and have her flee with William to some distant place. But then again the whole "fleeing with William and having him take care of Shelby" idea ends too happy. I mean, what girl WOULDN'T love to run away with thier prince? It would be like a dream come true. I'm starting to add some bitterness to Shelby's father character. I think he'll be mean to Shelby and her mother. Shelby's mom has to be the sweetest most gentle person ever. But I think she's going to be just a little, you know, crazy. I guess I'll go ahead and work towards the "run away with prince" idea. Since the parents, who get killed off, are going to end up imperfect. A bitter father who secretly hates the world and a mother who has crazy outbursts. I'm going to end up making my story terrible if I keep thinking up these terrible things for Shelby to go through. I'm so mean to my characters. You should've seen what I made Tyler do to Annabell. Poor Annabell. Of course Tyler will end up being killed by Annabell in the end. Which is sad becuase Annabell loved Tyler. She still does. And for foolish reasons, too. Now Annabell has no room for love in her cold, dark heart. But this idea fits together better. And I've known that this would happen from the beginning.
I'm going to go look for this spanish show my spanish teacher let us watch. It's "like the spanish version of Friends." It was kinda funny. It made me smile anyways. It was called "Extras" or something like that. And since I kinda like my spanish class and I like learning how to speak it, I'm looking it up outside of class. I'm a dork with no life. </3 ___________________________________________________ I didn't find it. DX Instead I watched some anime with spanish subtitles. But it doesn't really help when you're hearing Japanese and reading spanish. Sure I understood it (as much as anyone who takes spanish class and listens to enough Japanese to fill in the blanks) but it wasn't what I was looking for. Listening to it is better than reading it, for me. But I'm just weird that way. And no I won't continue pass the first episode of the series I randomly clicked upon. It's not that it was boring, but more that I just don't have the will to find out what else happens.
Ah well. Night journal! (Mama's stealing the computer as of now, call me if you want me.)
