10:53pm: Yes! I've been neglecting my journal for most of November, but that's because NaNo pretty much ate up all the free-time I had. Guess my ideas don't flow a fast as they used to, because I barely made it! I had to change my time-zone to do so, but I felt it was fair enough to do that because there was one day where I planned to write, but couldn't because I had a terrible headache, it totally sucked.
Anyway! I got the 50,000 words done, but it typical Moose style I haven't finished the story yet, in fact I'm nowhere near doing so. Honestly me...part of NaNo is dilly-dallying, but I went way over the top with that one, LOL fail.
Anyway, apart from NaNo not a lot happened for me in November, so I guess the fact I haven't updated much isn't a huge loss. Although, as it happened, Plushy ended up going to the GP event and making his big international coaching debut! Which I'm pleased to say I saw live! :OD Yaaay! Although I used up all my mobile bandwidth doing so because I had to watch it at the library during my lunch. Still, it was so awesome! And his student did so well! Coachshenko is a bawwwsss.
Anywho, I can't stay up too late because I need to go to the Mall tomorrow morning - Mum was reading the paper while watching the cricket (because it's waaay too boring to give your undivided attention) and discovered that a giant inflatable flamingo is there this weekend to advertise a pop-up shop. It's 8 metres tall and 8 metres wide! If I'd know it was there I totally wouldn't have gone this afternoon - I didn't go ice skating because I needed to finish up the frosting for the cupcakes I made for the Church's Christmas Dinner tonight (also because I wanted to eat some cupcake batter, LOL!). But since I didn't know I'll have to do it tomorrow before going to M's birthday party. Oh well, at least I went to church this evening with Mum so I'll have time to do that. Hopefully I'll get a photo with the flamingo! I'll keep you posted.
So yes, the Church's Christmas Party was tonight, I went mostly because Mum invited me along (since Dad and I usually go to a different church), it was good although it took aaages for food to be served. I'm not sure how my cupcakes were received because Mum and I were both tired so headed home. I did take a few of the cupcakes with me because I need to give them to Mrs S, her husband and the other carer. Plus I did end up eating two myself, but I had to make sure they were delicious! ;O) I think I finally got the oven ratio right today, so yeah go me!
Oh that note then, I better wrap this up, I missed out on my Russian and Japanese last night so i have to do that! (Not sure if I'll ever learn Japanese, but I should try since my brother does live over there and by extension my niece and nephew live there too! I saw them on Facetime tonight actually since I'm at my parents place for the night and the big bro called.
So yes, I shall be off now, hope you're all well!
Goodnight all!
