Vacations and Camps and Yeahs

I have been meaning to write this post for far too long and now it is time to sit down and DO IT.

But I've been busy, so yeah. And now I shall tell you why I was busy.

I went on vacation on Monday through Thursday and that was really fun. I took a bunch of cool pictures that I have yet to upload, and we just did a lot of fun things. And yeah, we got back at noon on Thursday and I was superbusy planning for writing.

And that writing happens to be CampNaNoWriMo. Remember NaNoWriMo from November? Well now there's a camp for it that's in July and August. And I'm doing it. I might do it in August too, but we'll see how July goes and see if I want to continue in August. So I had about a week to prepare for CampNaNo because I chose my plot a week before. Which required me doing some research. And most of that week I was on vacation. So I had to use my mom's iphone for most of the research. Which means the next time she goes onto Google she's going to have some very strange topics coming up when she tries to type anything in. Haha... yeah.

And yeah. Yesterday my friend came over to go swimming and that was pretty fun. And she's coming over again today. So I would have 0 time to get any writing done today. So that meant that last night I got all my writing for today done with. Does that mean I was up until 1 in the morning writing incoherent sentences and rambles that had nothing to do with my plot at all. Yup. Does that mean I woke up at 7 to a depressing dream and got only 6 hours of sleep? Well, yes, but I don't always have depressing dreams when I stay up late. The dream I had just happened to be really sad. Yeah.

So that has been my week. I've also been looking up NaNo helpers and some of them seem to work really, really well. Particularly the one that suggested to look at it as doing little 100 word parts and then going up to do a break or do something and do it again 10 more times a day until you have 1000 words. I actually need more of 1800 words, so I'll just be doing it 18 times a day. No problem. This is going to be fun. Probably a very sleep deprived summer, but sleep is for losers.

Hello. I'm not really sure what this does. I hope it doesn't kill anything on here.
