Hi guys! <3
Guess what I did?! :D
" forgot to blog all week?"
Well yes but I also.... ACTUALLY DID STUFF!!! Yaaaay!!!
So first of all I started reading The Fault in our Stars and it is literal perfection. I'm at the part at the gas station btw ;)
I also had a super good idea (I mean like not to brag or anything...) but I'm really excited!! So you know the book I'm writing? Well each book has a quote that's going to be on the page inbetween the dedication and prologue. And I found the best quotes on tumblr!! They fit each character perfectly.
Here's Stella's but the rest are surprises for if/when I publish it. Ok it's on the internet now I have to force myself to actually finish this ;)
"Do not underestimate me because I am quiet. I know more than I say, think more than I speak, and observe more than you know." -unknown
AAAAH THE PERFECTION!!! lol
It just fits so much because she's quiet but she's smart so people think she cheats to get into honors classes. Like she is asked a question but freaks out about talking in front of people so she comes out looking dumb. Ya know?
And I also came up with the awesome event each character does that involves their escape/happy place.
Book 1: The Goings on in the Mind of an Introvert.
Main character: Stella Eve Cambridge
Escape: YouTube
Awesome event: going to vidcon and meeting her favorite youtubers
Book 2: The Goings on in the Mind of an Ex-Twin
Main character: Nevaeh Rosa Hanwell
Escape: theatre
awesome event: getting Eponine in an off Broadway production of Les Miserables
Book 3: The Goings On in the Mindo of an Orphan
Main character: Elyssa Aveline Burgstaller
Escape: Art, including makeup
Awesome event: Competing in the Nyx Face Awards ( if she wins or not is still tbd)
Book 4: The Goings On in the Mind of a Tomboy
Main character: Lelah Brianne Hauter
Escape: basketball
Awesome event: her team's coach quits suddenly just before the game deciding if they make the state championships, and Lelah takes over and leads them to victory
Book 5: The Goings On in the Mind of an Exchange Student
main character: Beatrice Jolynn Syndergaard
Escape: reading and writing, words in general
Awesome event: writing a book (If it's published or not is still tbd)
So that's that.
But I also did more stuff! Wow so productive!
I figured out what I'm going to be for Halloween!!! :D
I love making my own costumes and the whole theatrical side of Halloween. And I also love trying to find costumes that aren't super gory and like... Death. I like costumes that arent like a princess or something, but not scary or gross and bloody and such.
I'm going to be....
WENDY DARLING FROM PETER PAN!!!
But not exactly like the movie. She's going to be a bit more disheveled. Like she just FLEW, BATTLES PIRATES, and STUFF LIKE THAT. She's not going to have perfectly curled hair. Also Peter came after she'd been asleep for a while so her hair and pjs can't be so perfect.
I drew a sketch of the costume that I'll include.
and the last think I did this week was have really bad allergies :D yayyyy. :/ lol
Ok bye for now!
