There's so much I have to say.
As of 10.52pm today I became a NaNoWriMo 2007 Winner.
My word count so far is:
50,094 / 50,000
(100.2%)
And I say so far because the story is not yet done. I'm thinking, another 10k? Yeah. Hmm. Maybe?
I'm so proud of myself, because I was able to do this, yet another year, even though it has been a bit difficult, with school and real life and whatnot.
Now... for the not so writing related news.
Jose got a job. Yes, that's amazing, considering it's been a year almost to the month since he finished school. There's a bit of a complication, though. It's in Spain. And we live in Peru. Yep. On the other side of the freaking Atlantic.
How am I taking it? Well, we talked about it before he so much as sent his CV, so it's not like he just kinda sprung this on me, you know? It's one year. One year I won't see him, and though that might seen lie not much for some of you, for the both us? It's huge.
We're setting everything up (he leaves on march) so we can actually survive this. So far, I'm getting a new cell phone, so I can call him anytime (international roaming anyone?) and it's this PDA phone so I can send him emails and send him pictures and stuff. My current cell phone is five years old and it's... well, it's a brick, it's putting it lightly. *g*
I'm... taking the good things that will come out of this, so I can actually handle this. I'm focused on my new cell phone and the ipod I'm getting as a present from him and my new cell phone and that he will send me money and my new cell phone... The thing is, though it might sound selfish, I'm focusing on that because it truly breaks my heart that he's leaving. We've been together for six years and one month and eight days. I love him to death. I... I don't know how to face a year without him, except trying my very best and taking a deep breath.
I think you might hear a lot about this for the next couple of months, and then about how I miss him to pieces for the next year. *nods*
