*nods* I know.
I wrote it in my planner so I wouldn't forget. I swear, I wouldn't know my own name if it weren't for this thing.
It starts at midnight on Halloween. Some people may be at parties, or trick or treating, or with friends or family. I'll be sitting at home, handing out candy to little kids as they come by, and waiting for midnight. Imma stay home alone while everyone else is out. I know, I'm cool, aren't I?

My family.... and friends..... think I'm insane. My one friend, came right out and said "You're not doing this stupid writing competition you were talking about earlier." That pissed me off. She insisted that I needed to focus on school - and, that might make a little sense, if she knew that I don't have good grades. So I made the analogy that it was like me saying that she can't go to homecoming or play basketball. Her response was "Yeah, but those things are actually important, this is just some stupid competition." I hate it when people get like that. Everyone has their thing, no one thing is more "important" really...

It's not even a competition, technically.
Basketball is important, though. *is a hypocrite*
You just reminded me to send the link for NaNo to another one of my friends.
*has 4 RL friends doing it now* xD

I know, but they can't get it into their heads. The one girl, once she finally accepted it, kept telling me that I should cheat on it, since technically nobody will know. She just doesn't get the concept.
I'm not saying basketball, or homecoming for that matter, isn't important. I'm simply saying that you can't have your thing, and then tell everyone else that what they're doing isn't at all important, but yours is.
XD *doesn't have any* They all just think I'm insane.

*bursts into conversation* It is completely possible to do NaNo for 50k and get wonderful grades. Loads of people do it every year.
Attempting 200k?
Is only for those who are going to community college anyway XD

......So far, I haven't been able to pull off NOT doing NaNo and get wonderful grades. This is my problem. Even if I were doing absolutely nothing for the rest of the year, I'd still be worrying about it. Not that it matters, I'll just worry and then let myself down in the end anyway. I'm capable, I'm just lazy.

There. Now I have my stash. I've been needing to do that for awhile anyway. I took a ziploc bag, and scooped a bunch of insta coffee powder into it. If I took the entire 4lb tub of it, they might notice. Then I took another ziploc and filled it with several tea bags, sugar packets, and a couple hot chocolate packets. Then I put both in a quart sized ziploc labeled "Stash of All That Is Amazing and Caffeinated." Then I put it in my nightstand drawer. The same one I keep large amounts of cash, old photos that haven't yet been scanned, and important letters that I need to save. I'm ready for NaNo/winter/whatever else.

XD I thought so. *felt the caffeine was important enough to go in the drawer with all the valuable crap*
