Just call me Superwoman...

Sorry I haven't posted...pretty much all of April. I've been busy doing a little something called Script Frenzy.
It ends tomorrow. But I sat myself down today and wrote.

I can proudly say, I am an official winner of Script Frenzy-2012.
And, NaNoWriMo-2011.

I'm on a freaking roll. I have a complete script done which I'm most likely going to end up acting out this summer with some friends. It's about a girl who's moving soon but doesn't tell her friends, just makes a bucket list. I don't know if it's crap or absolutely amazing. Hopefully the second choice, probably the first choice.

But, oh well. Heck, it was fun. It was an experience. And I won!
And the NaNoWriMo, I haven't even FINISHED the novel but I'm close and I hit 50 k so yeah buddy.

It sounds hard, but honestly just put in some effort and you can do it. Heck, I am 14 years old (13 when I did NaNo) and that's the age to make the normal one. Any younger than that you do the normal ones. Yes, I will admit that you give up some time. Social time, outside time, and you may have to do your homeowrk faster if it normally takes you all afternoon. But if you fall behind, there's weekends. Just don't be afraid to try it.

One option is Camp NaNo, if you're too busy in the school year (November). Camp NaNo is this summer, so why not give it a go? Or do your own little project, such as "I'll write a 10 page short story in one week". Someting simple.

If you need help or any tips, just comment. Message me. Hit me up. I'm here to help, and you won't regret giving it a go.

Blogs, stories, scripts...I love writing and if you give anything a go you may too.

A Little Bit of Glitter to End the Night...

Well, happy late St. Patty's Day. Crap. I just realized I forgot to finish an draft blog post on here.
I'm going to go finish that one then finish up this one.
...
Done!
Okay.
Well horrible news. I got my permit. Cool right? Well, I was practicing driving and I got in a car crash. The adult with me is fine but I broke my ankle and have to get surgery. It really hurts.. :( They said it might be life-threatening if I fall again and the blood circulation cuts off.


















APRIL FOOLS.
Probably saw that coming.
Well I had Joy over cause we're on SPRING FREAKING BREAK! 8D Anyway, after she was gone we got mail from her. I was about to head to bed and get on my iPod (which I fell asleep with on...sigh) when my mom said I had a weird letter (she saw the outside). Hmm. It read this on front of the envelope:
Heads up-
don't open unless you have enough tie on your hands
Also-
I suggest opening it in your room

O-O
Well even though it was late at night, I was curious. So I ripped it open...
And glitter fell everywhere.
Dude, really?!

I opened up the letter, which caused more glitter to float to the floor, and it read in pretty marker colors:
Jami,
Happy April Fool's Day!
[Early or late...you know snail mail]
Isn't glitter so much fun?!  :)
By the way, sorry about any mess I caused.

If and when you read this Joy, you're a butthole. I am so getting you back when you least expect it.

Give her credit though, she came up with it on her own! At least it wasn't *that* much glitter but still...

P.s.-I'm doing script frenzy! I'll update you guys but I'm above schedule :)

Common Cars and Prank Calls

Well, I am now 14! Boo-yah? It doesn't feel that much different, just a stronger urge that I should study more my permit test which I am now eligible to take. Driving...jeez. Stay off the roads...
But then again last time we went on go carts (first time I was able to drive my own) I was 2 laps behind the others being careful...heh.
Anyway, while we're on the topic of driving...
Wednesday was my birthday right? Okay, golden actually. My sister was being nice and drove Joy and I to Peachwave (under the condition that Joy had to be Elphaba (I was Glenda) in this Spanish music video of "Popular" (from Wicked) she had to do. Oh teasing her hair was fun...Joy has amazing facial expressions. Pass the point, I walked us both up to the wrong car. Same type of car, wrong license plate and people. I guess I should have noticed it wasn't our state's license plate but I wasn't being observant. I figured she had a friend and that explained the 2nd person, but it took me till I was pretty close to realize it was full of a bunch of people I didn't know. We turned around and walked back, fully aware of the weird looks they gave us as they drove up farther.
Well, the next day I did the same thing. To the same car.
At least that time my sister drove up and maybe they saw the similarity. Hopefully. Jeez i have 4 people giving me like death glares.

Well, hey it's been nice out! 

And Happy Late late late St. Patty's Day.
Did you wear green? O-o *pinch*
Only day you can pinch the crap out of someone...unless they're wearing green then that just ruins it.

Well onto the next topic...Prank Calls.
I was at Joys not too long ago and after balancing like a ninja on a tire swing and climbing trees, we decided to do that restricted call thing (you know...put *67 behind a number) and call some friends of ours. We called one of the twins, who didn't answer, then the other. They answered, probably assuming it was important if they called them both. Well, heck I don't even remember what we said. Something about a guy wanting to meet up with her and stuff. I said her full name so they kinda knew it was a joke. But then we did a murder scene through the sound.
Funny thing? She said she might know who it was, someone very "mischievous".
Who me? Never.

I had to suppress my laughs. Later of course it was me. Maybe I didn't disguise my voice well enough, or they just know me too well.
Dang.
