Squirrels, Jerks, Familiar Names, and NaNo
Hi, everyone!
Okay, now that random title's out of the way...well, firstly lol way. Of course. But anyway. Onto my day.
So it was pretty uneventful. Neither good nor bad, but just blah. In drama class I have an assignment due on Monday, and I need to choose a scene to perform with some of my classmates. I have no idea where to begin, the only plays I've really ever read were Shakespeare and I don't want to do that. Help please? Just any suggestions or pointers. :)
In English class, which each day makes me headdesk a little bit more, the girl who sits in front of me saw a squirrel outside cause we sit by the window. So we and my other friend who sits ahead of the girl who sits in front of me, all starting flipping out watching it. It was like jumping around the parking lot. I was like, "We must really be bored in this class if we get this excited over a squirrel." Then our teacher saw us and was like "WTF?" and we were like "There was a squirrel!!!"
Anyway, also in English. Our textbook has definitions of certain words and sentence examples. So I was looking at one for the word span or something, I can't remember now. But anyway, the sentence went something like "Even though the room was crowded, Frank spanned himself across the couch and refused to let anyone sit down." This resulted in two things. First, me giggling because I automatically thought of Frank Iero and I can just picture that perfectly. Secondly, this giggle and mental image spanned itself into an idea for a little story. It involves a very tired MCR after a show, Frank being a jerk and hogging the couch, Gerard whining about how tired he is, Mikey saying something witty about how come someone as short as Frank could take up the whole couch, Ray being sensible and finding someplace else to sit, and finally Bob getting tired of this shit and pushing Frank off. So I was sitting in English class thinking about this and laughing to myself.
I'm considering actually writing it. Should I?
Also I started to look through the other sentence examples from my textbook for other familiar names. I got bored and only made it through like the first unit.
I had a lol moment with names in my religion workbook today as well. I was flipping through it and came to a bunch of random, depressing scenarios that were supposed to be relatable. Now most of the names were normal. Nina, Justin, Angela, whatever, and they all have problems. But one name was "Geralyn" or some shit. Anyone ever heard of this name? No? Me either. But when a person like me sees a name beginning with G-E-R-A you just know what I'm gonna think of. But it was hilarious because Geralyn was a loner girl with no friends who's socially awkward and shy. And seeing as I'm fairly confident our dear GWay was a socially awkward child, I found it so funny. So MCR vaguely brightened my day.
Also, it is Monday. A week from today is November 30. Which means HOLYMIKEYGASSESNANOENDSINAWEEK. I HAVE TO WRITE LIKE 30k IN A WEEK. SHITSHITSHITSHITSHITFRANKINGGEEWHATTHEHELLGAHHH!
I'm stressed now. Why am I sitting here writing about my blah day when I need to be writing!! I have plot! I MUST FINISH!! But I have my stupid drama assignment and stupid Thanksgiving and stupid school and stupid chapter 40 and stupid franking distractions. *mutters to self*
And I've started saying "franking" instead of "fucking" without thinking about it. Today in school I spilled my juice and went like "stupid franker." >____>
NaNo calls! Hope I made you laugh or something.
