And to add to that, Hurricane Sandy is coming in fast, which means the dawn of the infamous (and quite nonexistent) Frankenstorm.
Two days of school have been cancelled, which I find very amusing since there is nothing but a little rain and wind (so far.) I have been using the time to perfect my costume, Edward Scissorhands.
I tried out the makeup for the first time. It took me an hour and was probably one of the most frustrating things I have ever done, but I must say it turned out quite well. For the rest of the day I ran around scaring my friends and family. I can't wait for Halloween!
Also, I have been reading a cute little blog called http://isntitjustdarling.blogspot.com/
It has some really beautiful posts, but what I really liked was what the author called the "Personal Challenge Countdown." It was basically a list of things the author must answer about themself: 10 secrets, 9 loves, 8 fears, 7 wants, 6 places, 5 foods, 4 books, 3 films, 2 songs, and 1 picture (of yourself). Unfortunately, I don't have any flattering pictures of myself (I'm not the photogenic type), so I'm not sure what I'll do about that one, but I thought this would give whatever readers I may have a chance to get to know me a little bit better.
So, basically, each day, I will answer one requirement of the challenge, starting with 10 secrets.
Here we go...
1. I am a very antisocial and awkward person. I love spending time alone and am not very good at initiating conversation.
2. I am on page 351 of the novel I am writing. It is about a girl name Ana and her struggles with friends, family, love, and life.
3. I am hungry ALL of the time. I could eat for hours and still want more.
4. I play the piano but I never practice.
5. I am terrible at any form of team sport.
6. I hate making big decisions.
7. I am a crybaby.
8. I sing extremely loud when I'm alone.
9. I am very self-conscious sometimes.
10. I fall in love so easily it scares me.
So there we are, 10 secrets. I realize they aren't very good but I'm not the most interesting of people.
Anyway, I hope everyone bundles up and keeps safe for Frankenstorm!
Happy Halloween!
Sweeney Todd! My never-ending obsession! =)
