I Wish This Was 42 - by Dianna G

I Wish This Was 42 - December 2007

So. Life.

December 3rd 2007 08:10
...I'm not sure if I mentioned it, but I have a boyfriend. He's really nice and we're happy together; we do love each other. We spent all weekend together, actually, and it was probably the best weekend I've had in a good long time. The anniversary of Daddy's death passed just last week and he was there for me the whole time. I was so glad to have him with me.

Other than that, life is going somewhat well in certain aspects. I'm getting back on track with my writing, especially my blogging (hence my presence). I'm starting to have a life again, now that my beloved internet is back. I'm in the midst of my usual life, once again, writing, blogging, and hanging out with friends. Everything is slowly returning to normal after complete upheaval.

And I'm enjoying my life's return to its usual course. I'm really enjoying it. You know, I'm happy right now; I'm happy exactly where I am and with the people I am with. The course my life is taking, for once, seems to be an uphill one. The move is completely over, I'm happy, I'm writing again (there was a two month slump), I'm blogging again.

I've somehow managed to reach the point of happiness I had never enjoyed in the last two years except twice. I can only pray that things don't take a downhill rush like they did after Christmas Break last year. That was a wonderfully dramatic time.

Anyway. Life is looking up. I'm going to write and submit something by the end of this month. My new goal is to submit a story somewhere once a month, and to have a new story written every month. That's my biggest goal right now, other than the novel completion. I'm really going to work towards having my novel submitted to an agent by my fifteenth birthday.

For once, life looks up; and somehow I foresee peace and prosperity, even if only for a small period of time. And I know that it's not a lie this time. There will be hell soon, as Akhet begins, but it is beginning slowly. And it will begin with a time of good luck and prosperity for all the pieces of the puzzle-for Akhet is a combination of ups and downs. It does involve finding and pursueing passions, discovering true callings, and taking important steps on those journeys; but Akhet also involves pain, passion... many things...

And I'm looking forward to this thing... call me crazy, but I need a little excitement in my life.

Right now I'm feeling horrendously guilty for being a starving, broke as hell, student. I'm currently wishing I could donate some money to Nanowrimo, which has barely broken even in the donations arena.

Therefore, I'm going to ask, and pray, that anyone who loves me or my blogging enough to think I'm worth say... ten dollars... to donate to NaNoWriMo as a Christmas gift to me, in Litharukia's name. I'm pretty sure there's actually a package. (Plus the donater gets a halo)

I really love NaNoWriMo; it's been my inspiration for a good four years. Every single year I've made it to at least thirty thousand words. I won this year and last year with more words than I needed or could've dreamed of getting. This site has been so influential in my life, not only this year, but every year, that I can't imagine life without it. At all.

They need money for year-round hosting and for their new and improved website. One thing I've got to hand to them, NaNo always has SOME spiffy new feature, and the certificates are always prettiful. I love that site, I love the community, I love everything about it. And I can't imagine how November would feel without it.

So please, if you care to read this and honestly give a shit about my existence (which you most likely don't, but anyway...), do me and thousands of other writers a favor-donate to NaNoWriMo...
