Um, it's November.
That means it's NaNoWriMo Month.
Which means I'm writing a novel that's 50,000 words long. (at least)
And so far, I'm 1/10th of the way through.
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH~!

It's depressing though: my hometown has a word count of... 7231 words... And I'm responsible for 3000 of those (it hasn't update today, where I earned 2000 more words).
AM I AND ONE OTHER THE SOLE REPRESENTATIVE OF MY CITY?!? D8
This... is both amazing and depressing at the same time.
I SHALL SHOULDER THE BURDEN AND LEAD MY TOWN TO VICTORY! -raises sword; crowd cheers-

Besides that, I listened to the Mercenaries 2 theme song over and over and over and over and over again. And I wish to add it to my MP3, and play it during the appropriate moments, despite its extreme Lyric Dissonance. Ahhhhhhh hahahahahahahaha, please tell me I'm not the only one that adores songs that are uppity with horrible lyrics/edgy with happy lyrics?
~Ohh NOOOOOO ohh NOOOOOOOOO oh no oh no oh noooo...~
~Sucka tried to play me, but you never paid me, never~
~OH NO YOU DIDN'T!~
But yeah, it made me want to hook up the PS2 and play Mercenaries again.
And make a ramp outta that one bridge so I can jump off it...
And blow stuff up...
And do jobs for the Russian Mafia...
Hahahahahahahahahaha.... It's almost as fun as Dynasty Warriors, but instead of annihilating masses of people with swords, you do so with airstrikes!
Wow, these games sound horribly violent... I'm- I'm scared... :c

WHY AM I HYPPPPPPPPER?!?
I haven't changed my mood in ages, because the emoticon amuses me and it seems to fit the mood of this journal. SO STAY IT SHALL!

"Now, hold on," you keep saying. "Aren't bows and arrows primitive and harmless?" Why don't you ask the dinosaurs? Except you can't, because the cavemen bow and arrowed them to death.
—Team Fortress 2

And after that endearingly short trope title/quote from TV Tropes, on to the actual journal-meme-thing.



Rules!
- Open your music program of choice and put it on shuffle.
- For each question, hit the next song and put down the song title.
- No matter how stupid it is, you must go with the first song that pops up, no exceptions!


1. Some days I just feel like:
A Lot Like Me (8D Oh, MP3, you conniving gadget you...)

2. Right now I am thinking:
Notion (boring)

3. My favorite type of day is:
A Flame for Freedom (xD Fits, I guess)

4. Nothing beats a good:
Conspiracy of One (Oh Offspring, your song names are SO meme-answerable)

5. When stuff confuses me, I just say:
Kristy, are you doing okay? (ANOTHER Offspring song?! Third one!)

6. My view on sex is summed up with this word/phrase:
Disappear (Hrmm...)

7. What should you do with your life?
Warum ('Why', for all you non-German people out there. Does this mean I'm questioning my path?)

8. I hope my last words are:
X (….... WORDS! D:<

9. Facebook quizzes like this are dumb. I’d rather:
Got it Made

10. At my funeral, they’d better be listening to:
Tar and Sagebrush

11. What my friends really think of me:
Betrayed (DD: what does THIS mean? Are you LYING to me, Zen?!)

12. Some days I just want to scream out:
OH GOODNESS, I'm NOT putting out what first came up; it was SO BAD! :0 It completed the sentence, but....
Instead, I'll put.... Samba... o-O

13. I love to eat, especially when the food tastes like:
Prayer of the Refugee (._.)

14. I’m not racist, I just think:
I Can Walk on Water (Arrogance? Or maybe this means I'm a ninja...)

15. Lots of these made no sense, but that’s because:
Wer Bin Ich (Ah yes, because I speak German, of course! 8D Also, this translates into 'Who am I', so I guess I also have amnesia)

16. My music knows me best, that’s why it knows that all I want for Christmas is:
Savior (LOVE this song)

17. When I laugh a lot of people say I sound like:
PHOTOFINNISH (Oh ho ho, it's spelled that way too)

18. My feelings on gay marriage are summed up in this word/phrase:
Monument (Hrmm....)

19. If that last one made no sense to you, then I just have this to say to you:
Scars of Yesterday (Now this just makes that last one sound shady)

20. My last thought after this little quiz thing is this:
Structure (ahahahaha!)

The journal is named so because there was a drop-down menu that popped up when I clicked on it, so I decided to pick from there :3 You lost the game
~ Rules:
~ If you don’t have at least 8 OCs I wouldn’t recommend this meme
~ Add on questions to this meme! It will make it bigger! (bold your questions too)
~ TAG PPL PLZ
~ Enjoyyyyyyyy!


1) First list all your OC’s by first name so we can see your list of all your wonderful OC’s: I was nice and put the stories they're in next to their name.

1. Ken (I forgot his last name; Butler? Williamson?) (Power Within)
2. 'Kite' (she never tells her real name) (PW)
3. Deceit (Trust Deceit)
4. Illiam (TD)
5. Cameron Pierce (As-Of-Yet Unnamed Story)
6. Riley Bishop (AOYUS)
7. Phoenix Crane (AOYUS)
8. 'Tight' (Similar to Kite) (PW)
9. Em (PW)
10. Austin (I think that's what I called him) (PW)

2) Who is your favorite OC?
Out of all of these? Either Deceit or Austin

3) Who is your least favorite?
Probably.... Tight

4) Who is your most developed?
Deceit :3

5) Which OC would you want to date if they magically came to life?
Hmmm.... I'd say Ken

6) How many girl OCs do you have? Boy OCs? It OCs?
Four girls, six guys

7) If you were stuck in a burning building what do you think the third OC on your list would do?
He would probably manage to escape. No guarantees on if he'd help the others though.

8) Name one thing you regret about one of your OCs.
Not so much regret, but I'm displeased with the reasoning behind Austin's evilness. That's what I get for not planning it out...

9) Which of your OCs do you think would make the best father/mother/it parent out of all your OCs and why??
I know who'd make the WORST father (-cough-Deceit-cough-). The best parent would probably be... Riley or Em.

10) Which of your OCs do you think will most likely be put in jail?
Austin, -beep-, Phoenix, and Deceit. Three because they're bad guys, and Deceit because he likes to make people angry and is an all around jerk.

11) The eighth of your OCs was put into the future! What will their job be?!?
Uh.... o-o Finding a way to get back.

12) Name the first OCs catch phrase! (if they don’t have one just make one up)
“WHAT'S GOING ON!?! D8”

13) Do all your OCs live together or are they separated?
Ken, Tight, Em, and Kite all live together. Deceit and Illiam not only live together, but they have the same body.

14) Are there any pairings that are in your OC list? (they can’t be with someone else's)
KitexKen, one-sided EmxTight (Em pining for Tight), and possibly RileyxCameron (Riley's a chick).

15) Your seventh OC switched bodies with you for a day! How will they react at the end of the day?
Well, undercover work IS quite wonderful >:]

16) Your last OC just became a fifteen year old. What do they do?
Well, that suits Austin's plans perfectly! ;D

17) Now randomly select a person on your OC list. Who was it?
Illiam

18) That OC you just chose? Yeah they think they are superman (even if they are a girl) and are on the roof about to jump off.
Poor Deceit. He's trying so hard to keep Illiam from doing it.

19) Are any of your OCs bored of this meme?
Deceit, Austin, Tight, Ken, and Riley!

20) Would your second OC prefer the beach or the mountains?
Mountain; it's colder up there

21) Would your tenth OC battle a shark?
Yes. He'd probably win too

22) Which OCs hate each other?
Ken and Austin, Illiam and Deceit pretty much hate each other, and I have a feeling Riley and Cameron will grow to hate Phoenix

23) Which OC did you create first? And last?
Out of these? Ken is first. And I created Phoenix yesterday (came up with her name today, lol).

24) Back to the two that hate each other. Do they ever make wise cracks back and forth? Or are they constantly serious when in the same room?
Ken and Austin are constantly serious, Deceit and Illiam are ALWAYS fighting (and their fights are amusing, considering they're in one body), and Riley/Cameron are pretty serious towards Phoenix, though she's quite nice.

25) And if those two were fighting, who would win?
Well, in the one fight before they shared a body, Deceit won by a landslide; Austin would win against Ken; and Phoenix could take down both Riley and Cameron.

26) Are your OCs fat or skinny?
They're mostly slim. In Deceit/Illiam's case, bony (though they're now gaining muscles); Austin is muscular.

27) What are your first 2 OC's favorite foods?
Ken likes spaghetti and Kite likes frozen pizza

28) Tag three or more people!
Sherlock Holmes, Shinichi Kudo, and Joe Hardy.

I love it.

So, right now, I should be working on my Dialectical Journals for my summer homework, but I don't feel like it. I've finished one book, about a sixth of the way through the other, and... I just got the third yesterday. WHY DID THEY GIVE US THREE BOOKS?!
Bah. Teachers.

Anyways, I fell in love with a video game series called Phoenix Wright. It pwns. It involves analytical skillz. If you always need a walkthrough for games, you're screwed if you ever play this. One, because it's not fun if you use a walkthrough all the time(well, no game is fun if you use a walkthrough all the time, but this one more so), and two, it gives away spoilers. Like, extreme spoilers. Oh, and it's extremely twisty. Hahahaha! I love twists x3
But it's great. So play it now.

I have a medical forum in, like, 5 days that I'm freaking out over. Hence the awesome hysterical smiley (I DIDN'T JUST CHOOSE IT BECAUSE IT PWNS). I'm not a freak-out-in-an-obvious-way person. I'm more of the subtle-freak-out type. Like, I dreamed about it. I dreamed I forgot everything. It's gonna be fun, but OH GEEZ, I'm anxious.

-Sigh-
I should really stop procrastinating now... Ugh.

I really don't have much to write. I finally got to playing Sims 3, which is pretty awesome. It's laggy like nothing, and sure takes long to save and/or watch them sleep, but on the bright side, I have time to do other things in that period. Say, read or write, or pick up another game.

Hmmm... I've gotten into painting my nails. Yeah. I change the color every couple of days. I don't think I've had them without polish since the beginning of May. -shrugs- oh well.

I've gotten to writing (not typing, writing) my story, which is under the tentative title of The Game (which you've lost). I am at what I call "Phase 2", which is basically "Seth finally finds out what's going on (in a sense) and is finally an official player of The Game." In any case, he's met Neil and he's about to get his first task. About meaning in around five pages. And it's already 12 pages long (YAY!!)
I HAD TO SHOW THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN HIM AND HIS FRIENDS, OKAY! It's important... somewhat. >->

Really? I don't have much more to say. I will say that now I'm either going to watch AVGN or Nostalgia critic, I might chill on the Sims 3 forums, or I'll play Phoenix Wright. Or all three at the same time. Yeah, I'm that awesome.
