Updates

So I've decided, that, since I had two seconds to myself. I'll throw in more updates :D!


Script Frenzy
In Green.

I should have 20 pages by tonight. As usual, I have no outline. Keelya and Dylan are taking me wherever their kindergarten hearts takes them. I'm doing pretty good, much better than I was doing with NaNoWriMo [I was struggling a lot]. I am also having a lot of fun with this, and I think I might write another script once I am done this one :D

L2 Reading Challenge
In Orange.

I read about 16 pages of mandarin. Today while in class, I think I felt asleep with my eyes open. Mandarin is blowing my head up. I spoke in Chinese while in my French class, and I want to point out things in the street and scream their Chinese name [Like a preschooler]. It is good though :D It means I am getting the language down and "graving it into my brain" as AJATT- All Japanese All The Time- would say.

Korean
In Purple.

As some of you might remember, I am learning Korean. Well, well, after talking to Linda I was doing it all wrong. In Korean, the word order in the sentence is different, and so learning vocabulary isn't the most efficient way to learn. So now, I am learning sentences. Let me tell you, it is a lot more difficult. I was happy with my ten words a day (or more like 6 sometimes). I am going to have to put a halt to it though, because I am getting busier as we speak.

AMG
In Teal.

Alpha Mu Gamma. Or, the Honor Society of Foreign Language. Initiation is in a couple days (Thursday to be exact). I will be the vice president of the Honor Society of Foreign Language. Insane right? I couldn't believe it either :D

Editing and writing
In Yellow.

So no one can see my failure. I completely stop editing :[ or writing the rest of My New Prison [Alan's story]. I know I will pick it up again, but so soon? eh. We shall see :D

Kevin
In Blue.

The boy. I am planning a trip to China with him, and he is making it difficult. The man doesn't want to do anything. No Scuba diving, No beach, No train traveling, No Hong Kong, No PANDA PETTING [DDD:]. After an hour of just pure whining at each other, I came up with the great idea of, he makes a list of things he wants to do. I make my list. We swap lists and we pick 5 things on each lists. Everyone is happy now. Well kinda, I am going to have to make 6 items beach time in order to go to the beach now. [Just kidding, there shall be no beach time :( ]

Working out
In Brown-ish

I have been running, working on my abs/ biceps/ triceps/ and thigh areas.
Basically, getting ready for a bikini season where I will not even be wearing bikinis (since I won't be near a beach). Last I ran was two miles, and I do this about everyday. I work out for 2 hours after school, every two days. Even though I have not lost weight per say (I remained the same weight- which wasn't a lot to begin with), I can see myself getting toner, and more in shape. I can run longer distances, and I can do actual push ups now! :D

Grades
In Red.

I talked to my two professors about my grades. This little non-all-A's problem is going to be resolved soon. I am not going to waste my time rewriting a paper three times to get a 55%. No-uh. Therefore, we will see tomorrow what will happen with this story!!

Well, i think that's all my updates. I am off writing my 4 pages for today, eating some cookies (I did run, so I need a reward now), and getting my Chinese down :D
If you got any questions about anything, comment!!!

*coughs*

I am sick. Deathly sick.
But guess what, I will be going to DC with Kevin. After all the bitching that i put him through for this, I am going to have to go.
Plus, I love DC anyway P:.
It is suppose to rain though. Not cool. But we'll chilling in a museum anyway, so it is not a big deal.

I sent in my submission for Blood Bound Books, and I received an email confirmation. So now, I just have to wait three weeks at the most. Exciiittteeeddd !! :D

As usual, I am having problems with my mother. She is just... too much for me to deal. One of those people you know? The ones who can't help themselves but say everything on their mind, and when you don't agree with them, they complain and bitch to you and name call you. Basically, kinda like a middle schooler. That's the best way I can explain my problem with my mother.

Anyway, nothing too exciting today, expect me being sick and napping a lot. Beautifully naps. :D And chicken noodle soup. <3

So tata!

March 14th, mystery solved

Hello again!

I discovered what was due on March 14th. Another writing contest. I am not going to do it. Unfortunately, I just don't have the time to write a good new short story to send out.
Expect, if I am really bored tonight. Then, I will write a little something :]

Anyway, I finished my short story for publication. Later today, I think I will send Still-Life Art. We'll hear back in April :]

I also woke up early in order to go back to my old High School to get my scores for my SAT, SATII, ACT, AP, and TOEFL tests. Got them. Signed them. Send them later today, and that will be taken care of.

Basically, everything is slowly getting done. Now, I just have renting to finish and looking for more magazines to send out my stories :D!

All in all, I think I got this under control!

Another blog? WHY!!!

Hello dear non-fans and stumblers,

I know. Another blog in the blogging world. Why a new blog?
Not because you care about my life. Not because I am bored, but because...
I am going through a stage of my life that EVERYONE has to go through, or has gone through already.
This is my last year of being a teenager. Yes. In a couple months (8 months to be exact), I will be 20, a young adult. I will not only have to take care of myself financially, but my tantrums will no longer be accepted.
As a 20 year old, I will have to deal with a lot more events/ things that I want to ever care for. Sometimes, I will want to regress to being 5, while other times, I will love it.
No matter what anyone says, the big 2-ooh, is a big step in anyone's life.

Now, what will make make my 20's different from my teen years.
First, I am moving out.
Second, I will be less dependent of my parents.
Third, I will be paying for my travels (I travel a lot)
Fourth, I will have to budget my finances.
Fifth, I will be a junior in college.
Sixth, (For a short period of time) I will be trying to transfer universities - it is a lot of paperwork.
Seventh, I will lose friends, and make new ones.
Eighth, I will most likely fight with my boyfriend.
Ninth, I will have to balance work, studying, fun time, and writing.
Tenth, I will try to get published.
Eleventh, I will have to deal with my grandmother being sick.
Twelfth, I will have to deal with being in America, and getting an American education.
Thirteenth, My childish dreams will be crushed and destroyed by the big scary world out there. (No more of "I wanna be a princess")

Those are just 13 points. Every month, I have great friends who think of something else for me to do. It includes writing a novel, or learning to bake, or going house hunting, or going to parties, or group studying (which never works by the way.)
So now, I hope this first post explained to you what this blog will be about.
And I hope this blog will guide you through being a 19 going on 20 year-old.


PS: I never wanted to be a princess.
