NaNoWriMor Report/Word Count: Day 3
DAILY GOAL: 1667 words
CUMULATIVE GOAL: 5001 words
DAILY COUNT: 1650 words
CUMULATIVE COUNT: 9191 words
So I missed my little check in here yesterday, and, as you can see above, I didn't quite make word count. I thought I had, actually, but there is a disparity between my two computers (despite it being essentially the same program, just different versions) and I decided in the end to go with the lower count because even though it's only off by a few words, I don't want to validate it on the 30th and have it be all "HAHAHAHAHAHA- NO. You're two hundred words short. YOU FAIL. :P"
I'd much rather have it give me a count of two hundred words over, ya know?
Anyway, life was busy and full of real-lifeish things yesterday and that was frustrating and annoying, but I'm almost at 10,000 words which is exciting, so I'm trying not to let it get me down too much. I'm still feeling good and making progress and those are the important bits.
Also, I really wish I could be doing my field work in the mornings. Then it would be done and over with at lunch and I could have the rest of the day for writing and what not. As it is, it sort of awkwardly breaks up my whole day and makes it feel stuttered and less productive. *sigh* Oh well. it is awesome while I'm there. I do love being in a school and with the kids and just... working my voodoo like I do.
In my college classes I feel a lot like I'm never going to get it and I'm going to be a rubbish teacher and screwing all those poor kids up and, oh stars, WHY DID I CHOOSE THIS MAJOR AGAIN?! And then I get into an elementary school classroom and I'm with the kids and I think, "EFF YEAH. I CAN TOTALLY DO THIS, WHAAAAAAAT."
Anyway, babbly!post is babbly so I'll stop now.
MORE WRITING! o/
