So, the past weeks have been a bit mad. Well, actually, it was boring until recently, and then everything turned mad. See, my best friend in the whole wide world, Ruffles, went to Utah on a like, 3-week road trip, leaving me behind here, to hold down the fort. Therefore, I was really bored. Also, her being gone meant that she neglected her duties as my game beta-tester. Really, all I’m trying to say here is… DON’T YOU EVER GO TO UTAH AGAIN, RUFFLES.
Anywho, continuing on… Oh, then I had family in town, which was fun, but chaotic. And then, I had one of my cousins stay with us for a few days, until we went down to visit the family that had just visited us, for the 8th birthday of another one of my cousins, which is the age in which kids are baptized in our church. We had a lot of fun, and it was really fun to see how big all my cousins are getting. They’re all getting so big!
Which brings me to my next subject… I’m gonna be old soon. Well, older, at any rate. My 15th birthday is next month. I’m super excited, but at the same time absolutely terrified. So… fun times!
As far as covering my ongoing projects goes, I’ve been getting a fair bit of progress. I’ve got 3 main things I’m trying to work on right now…
1. Personal Progress – I’m trying to be done with the Young Women’s Personal Progress program (for church) by November. Ideally, I’d love to be done by my birthday, but I think I don’t want to rush quite that much. I’m well over half-way done, so I can totally do it by November ^_^ I’M SO EXCITED!
2. Rhydion’s Quest – This is my computer game that I’ve been working on for… well, a year. I started it last August. Wow. And I thought I would be done with the whole thing by January xD I’m almost done with Part I of the game. I just need Ruffles to help me beta test, and then I WILL BE FINISHED! Then, I just, you know… need to finish part II. Heh.
3. My novel – Ah, yes. A definite work-in-progress. I’m really excited about it, and I know generally where I want my story to go, but I’m really struggling getting a full plot planned out. I’m hoping to be able to write two books of it, so we’ll see how it all goes! I’m currently at 16,000 words, and I’m not hitting any major blocks like I normally do at this point. So… yay! I’m sure they’ll come later on, but for now, I’m happy. I really love writing! And I just do it for the fun of it. The idea of my stuff being good enough to get published makes me laugh. But, maybe someday, years from now, if I just keep on writing… Who knows?
I’m super excited for fall & winter to be coming, and I am SO DONE with summer! We’re about to break the record of most days over 100 degrees. This sickens me. I just want it to be cold! I’ve been finding all my cute winter clothes, and I’m so excited for it to be freezing outside. I need it to be Christmas =(
So, anyways… That’s my life right now. Not very thrilling, but oh well. I don’t care ^_^
Stay awesome,
Kyr
