Hi guys <3
Wanna know something random? No? Well I'm gonna tell you anyway because you can't respond until I've already written this whole thing so ha! I was supposed to wake up at 8:15 am today because I'm waking up 15 minutes earlier every day (yesterday I got up at 8:30, today 8:15, tomorrow 8:00) to prepare for getting up at 6:00 for school. In two weeks. AAAAHHH!!
Anyway, my mom gets up at 6:15 for work. And usually my cat is locked out of my room. But today she opened my door and let him in for some reason. He woke me up at 6:15 and was constantly meowing and wanting me to open my window for him to look outside. Then he began to knock my books out of the shelf they're on!
So I grabbed him and put him on my bed. Then he slept there on my feet. Good right? Wrong! I couldn't fall asleep because idk why but I can't sleep with a cat on my body. Then my alarm clock goes off and I'm trapped under a cat.
I slither out from under him, turn off my alarm and proceed to the kitchen to make some breakfast. But he chases me and claws my legs. :O yeah he's very annoying.
In other news I spent most of yesterday working on my book and it's actually coming along pretty well. I changed some stuff and added a few things too. For one thing Stella is a freshman in high school instead of 8th grade, because birthdays and how they correspond with your grade and stuff confuse me a lot, so I figured out if she were born in February 2001, she'd be a freshman!
Also I came up with how she meets the youtubers. Basically she meets an Internet friend, Chloe Grace Bently who is 15, through their Grav3yardgirl fanpages in instagram. Then they plan to go to vidcon to meet each other in real life and also meet their favorite youtubers.
But right when she gets to vidcon she starts fangirling and getting anxious about meeting all these people and passes out. She dreams she is still at Vidcon but a crazy slightly fantastical version of it that incorporates things that youtubers talk about like winged gators and Unicorn Island and such.
While there she meets all her favorite Youtubers and they each give her some advice. ( note that this IS supposed to be a modern retelling of Alice in wonderland.) For example: Bunny tells her to be confident and love herself, Kat (Kat sketch) tells her to be creative and express herself, Colleen/Miranda tell her not to let haters get to her, etc.
She is eventually woken up by Chloe and she gets a slushie and is fine. They go and actually meet the Youtubers. The advice they gave her in the dream gives her confidence and she gets the courage do start her own YouTube channel. And some other stuff I haven't worked out the details too. :D
Like I said Wednesday, I came up with a few possible titles. I'd love some feedback about them! Please comment which ones you like!
1.) YouTube Friends
2.) Fractions ( because she's in a lot of fandoms, is good in math, and also has a lot of different interests making it hard to find friends.)
3.) Geek on Fleek
4.) Unstereotypicallity
5.) Cyber Girl
6.) Virtual Reality
7.) Embracing Uniqueness
8.) Confidence
9.) Shy
10.) The Time Stella Eve Cambridge Accepted Herself
11.) Assumptions ( because people assume she's goth, anorexic, a cheater, etc which aren't true)
12.) Defying the stereotypes
13.) Comments ( like real life mean comments and the fear of mean comments on YouTube)
14.) Haters
15.) The Goings-on in the Mind of an Introvert
I'm going to think of a few more and probably figure more plot stuff out over the next few days and post more about them on Wednesday!
Bye for now!
