Oops

I, um, may have accidentally signed up for NaNoWriMo. This is very bad. I have no time. I stay up ridiculously late doing homework every night. I do not have time to write a fucking novel, much less sign up four days late and be 5,000 words behind on said novel. But, I signed up and I started and I now have... 4045 words, so that's that and I am committed.

The 4045 existing words have become this shitty semi-autobiographical mess for about half of it, which them transitions very abruptly to a very close to life recollection of a conversation I have had with one of my best friends, and then an almost completely accurate recollection of my AP English class today. I changed names, but that's about it. Hopefully at some point it will become fictional. And possibly develop a plot.

So... Basically I need tips on how to do this. How do I come up with a plot? How do I stop babbling? How do I make sure I don't get bored and start over ten thousand times and as a result never get anywhere?

HELP ME

Thank you for your time. Here, have an amusing picture that I saved while procrastinating today:



In case you were wondering, the Obsessive Compulsive cat is me.
