Sometimes I wish I had a touch, I could get so much done at 2 in the morning.

Yeah, that probably should have happened.

I basically get on LMBE, watch YouTube, check some webcomics, and then do my homework that’s due in 3 hours.

I’m probably only alive because of coffee.

Probably.

See, that sounds so handy.

I tried some of that stuff...it's okay if you dump six extra sugar packages in it.

One day this might/will change for the both of us.

I’m sure it will happen eventually. Right? Right?

Give it time, we've both got a bit.

I did literally beat a guy at a videogame button-mashing...and I was Yoshi.

It felt so good.

(Owen Wilson voice) Wowwwww

Yoshi sucks, Kirby is better.

Those two are literally the two most annoying characters on the game to play against.

Very nice.

You're very good at not robin over-used puns.

Well as they say, when in Rome...

Do as the RomeNz do.

Now that you've said that it's guaranteed to happen.

Maybe I can switch around the curse. *-)

Don't not-screw it up.

Please, give it your best shot.

*squints* Something weird is happening inside my brain.

Lets discuss the definition of "quality" shall we. 8-(

Are we talking personal definitions, or Google?

Lets hear both so I know what I'm dealing with.

You're already quite good at it.

Where and when and what?

Everywhere. All the time ~~okay most of the time~~. I don't understand the last question.

Great story, Con!

You're not very interested in the whole romantic side of this story, are you?

Nope, not at all.

When? What? How? Who? Where? Writing contest, gimme details please!

NaNoWriMo stands for "National Novel Writing Month" and it's kind of a big thing. People all across the US at least (maybe the world, I dunno), speed-write during November. Some published authors have put together almost entire books in a month through this. I've done it twice before. I'm aiming a bit lower than normal this year due to classes and all.

You basically start tracking your word count on whatever project you decide to do on November 1st, and then kind of keep track of how close you are to your goal, how many words per day you need to be writing, that sort of thing.

It's not so much of a contest as just challenging yourself to stop procastinating and write your projects. If you do make your writing goal, then there are prizes (mostly free one-month subscriptions to stuff and the likes

) but it's mostly about just making writing your priority for a month. You can compete against other people too.

Ooh, that sounds fun! I'll definitely participate next year (I'd do it this year, but it's evident that I need more practice

), along with another event in October. Hey, thank you for the details! I'll most definitely enter it!
