*clears throat* So there's been a #trend going around of #fivereasonstosmile or #fivehonestthings . Let's see what I can come up with...
1. Uncertainty is one of the most certain things in life. Doesn't make it any less intimidating.
2. Trying to stay positive is hard. Especially when you only feel really close to one person in your class and most weekends are spent alone because traveling takes Money. But hey, this is 2016--even when most of my friends are thousands of miles away, I'm never more alone than a phone call, a text, or a chat message...even though I still miss the physical presence of another human being (or even an animal) in my abode.
3. My PT test is scheduled...for the day one of aforementioned friends is coming to visit. Mixed feelings of nervousness, excitement, and hoping we have something to celebrate in addition to their visit. *crosses fingers*
4. Speaking of PT, getting back in shape is haaaaard. My body so hates me right now. But I have more weight back on than I did two months ago, so at least I'm on the right track.
5. Life's gonna be okay, but it doesn't make certain parts any less rough. Adulting is hard. Not knowing what's around the corner is scary. It's easy enough to tell yourself everything's going to be alright...it's another thing entirely to convince yourself of that.

*glances at last update* *looks over at sequel story* *casually gathers all 330 pages, taps even, and clips together*
Ahem. (Nearly) 161k word story #2 ...done! ^_~ Couldn't overtake the first one at a 170k wordcount, but hey, now there's a total of 331k.
(Somehow it's not as surreal and mindblowing a feeling as finishing the first one... Kinda just "wooho! dunskies! *points sword* onward!!")
-

...WE'RE DONE. O-O

When you suddenly realize you wrote over ten times as much in one week that you have ever written in NaNo, on this collab you're almost done writing.

Two ways to read a scene in which Way to Break It, Hero (ie doing something to counteract something else which merely makes the situation worse):
(Writer, while writing/planning): Ooooh yes! That works nicely~
(Reader, while reading): D: NUUUUUU!!!

You know you spend too much time on the internet (usually writing) when you (ab)use OneTab so much you basically turn it into your permanent bookmark tab. (113 tabs and counting...!)
Rosendorn Aren't you happy to have it~?
(You weren't kidding when you said you needed it yesterday )

You know you're too deep in a fandom when you and your best friend can perfectly plan a Rule 63 joint cosplay of headcanon charries who perfectly fit your relationship. ILU and you know who you are. <3
-
You know you're a writer when you've researched surfing locations in Japan, surfing competition rules, Japanese demons, and CPR methods/procedures...all in the space of three to five hours. For one fic. <3
Rosendorn Don't forget lifeguard regulations/exams ;P

Some little itch in the back of my brain is telling me Gwen may yet be crawling back from the depths of the Plot Bunny tunnels into which she's fled...or else it's senioritis. >.> *shrugs*

Plot bunny of the day: Space sci-fi military story along the lines of Halo...with the Air Force dominant instead of the Navy. I mean, c'mon--"fly, fight, and win in air, SPACE, and cyberspace". Where does the Navy come in to that equation? (Air power!! [Sorry Navy types...])

Those days that drag on and on and on and on because you're simply waiting for something to happen. Patience is not a virtue. It is TORTURE by any other name. =/
GeeLyria I second that. XD

Stolen--err, tactically acquired--from Tumblr via Rosey:
If I were to ask someone to marry me I would make a chest that when opened would make the Zelda noise "dun dun dun DUNNN" and on the inside top of the chest it would say "It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!" with a tiny sword and shield with the ring on the sword. Then I would pull out an ocarina, play the song of time, then say "Would you spend eternity with me?"
HELLZ YEAH!
fireheartedkaratepup Ohhhh, yes. This would be beautiful.
