HEY GANG.

Here I am with another mostly-pointless update!

NaNoWriMo has begun, and so has work on Chapter 9 of Gravity. It's slow going, since I'm unfortunately needing to focus more on fretting over my schoolwork than on writing, BUT I still have high hopes. I'd really like for the entire story to be finished (and ready for editing) by New Year's.

I WAS planning on having the edited Chapter 2 ready by Halloween, but thanks to the Randomass New England Blizzard of Horror and 2011, that kind of... didn't happen. Neither did any of my other Halloween weekend plans. :( Instead I just sat in my dark room, tried to clean up fridge leaks in the dark, and whined to :iconwolfy-t: on the phone until it died and I went to sleep.

On the other hand? I did, purely by coincidence since I'd never taken the costume off, wander around outside on the PITCH-BLACK CAMPUS in the wee hours of the morning when nobody else was out, dressed as James Sunderland and armed with nothing but a really pathetic and dying flashlight that I haven't put new batteries in in four years.

This campus is usually lit 24-7, so even to someone like me who's used to walking everywhere by themselves in the middle of the night when there's no signs of life ANYWHERE except the occasional owl, it was genuinely disturbing to see the entire campus dark except for the few emergency lights still lit. Like stepping into.... get this... another world.

ohmygod.


But anyway, for anyone looking to reread a much-improved chapter with better wordflow OR anyone who might be reading for the first time (I've gotten a few comments lately from people interested in picking the story up who hadn't looked at it before), CHAPTER 2 of Gravity has been edited and posted on the website!

... There's a few embarrassing typos at the end because I finished up during an all-nighter early in the week, but J-JUST IGNORE THOSE UNTIL I HAVE TIME TO FIX THEM...


Aaaand that's all for now.

I'd like to scan some of my painting projects at some point, but we'll see whether this week slaughters me with work or not.

Good luck with your story and school! It's about this time when it gets overwhelming. >.< My dad's pressuring me to do everything I can to pass with decent grades for probably the most challenging classes I've taken so far. >B(
It would help a great deal if my teacher would give us practice questions or something but nope. We're entirely on our own. This is like, independent learning, not what I signed up for at all.

Aw I'm sorry things didn't go as planned. <=[ I think that's more exciting than my Halloween. XD Just handed out candy to the kids, with a whole bowl left over.... and 3 unopened bags of candy.

Seemed like another day went by, for the first time. D8> This is my first year I didn't have anything planned on Halloween night. NEXT YEAR WILL BE BETTER, I am determined.


Also I'm curious, how did you get the Pokemon sprites on your journal? They lead to a website, but from there I couldn't figure it out.

LATE COMMENT AHOY, OOPS.

I hope you succeeded with those good grades!

And those are from GPX+, a site where you raise/hatch Pokemon and stuff. Sort of like a virtual pet site, but Pokemon-based. XD When you have an account there, you can get a little code for each Pokemon you have and post it so that people can click on 'em for you.

Oh lord all mighty, I barely scraped by with a C for Geology. XD It's a darn shame I couldn't do the same for History... >B( I still passed though, no thanks to Mr. I'mTooStubborn.
But nevertheless, I received two A's and a B. ^_^ I sure hope I do better this year though.

Ah I see now! 8D That sounds like fun! How hard is it to obtain a legendary? o.o
I think I'll give that a try, once I can gain some free time. JUST started school today, and not in the best of moods to be honest. Not just because of school, but I'm looking for work now, money is getting tight, and my circle of friends aren't the happiest bunch of people anymore. At least when they're talking to me online. <=[ Until we finally get together, we're chillin' and gigglin'. Unfortunately, I won't be able to see them as much this semester. We're all taking different paths, different class schedules, and we'll be busy adjusting to the real world. Adolescence sucks. -sob-

But enough about me!
How have you been?? I see you've been posting some kick ass shit as always. XD

OMFG. YOU WENT TO THE OTHERWORLD?


...If so then i'd Imagine you where walking around and sheet like that and then all of the sudden you see Mary, Maria and Pyramid Head rosting marshmallows, and Mary was liek: YOU KILLED MEH! and Maria was liek: IM SEXIER THEN TAHT BETCH JAMEZ! and PH was liek: NOMNOMNOM with da marshmallows while he was fucking a random pair of legs, and where you probably liek:....WHUT?! and you noticed that they ate all the marshmallows and then you went to the store and bought some *GAAASSSSP* marshmallows!


*huff, huff* that was a mouthful.

8( I didn't buy any marshmallows because all the stores were out of power and there were legit people looting them.











otherwise that's pretty accurate though

Oh gee, I bet it was creepy AND awesome to wander around as James. :lol:
I gotta take a look at that chapter 2 and memorize the beginning of the story sometime. :D

IT WAS.

I chickened out and went back inside after a little while. I really only went outside to see the stars because without all the campus light pollution, they were really clear. ;-;

But HAHAHA I hope you enjoy the edited version! It's not that different, but it flows much better now and I definitely achieved what I wanted to achieve with Vick much better than it was in the beginning.
