The Word Bird (3)

Mood: Sucky
Song playing: Silence. . .
Inspirational picture of the day: 





Where I am in my writing: I'm planning my current novel, Overthrown Heart/Blurry/Essay of Love out. I can't decided on a title, but I'm thinking that I'm going to go with Overthrown Heart

My current noveling problems: I can't figure out a title for my current novel and I have Strep Throat which is preventing me from being my normal noveling self. 

My question for ya'll: Do you enjoy finding the perfect title for your novel?

Strep up.

Mood: Sick
Song playing: Uh. . .silence?
Inspiration picture: 




Ah, the day in the life of a girl that just got strep throat. It started Sunday, and I instantly knew that I had strep. . .two people I know got strep. Oh and today, I spilled milk ALL over my pants and NO ONE noticed. . . I'm assuming that that is a really good thing. My friends and I were screaming because a bee was chasing us and that's when I spilled chocolate milk all over my nice jeans. No one noticed, even though there were tons of people around. I had to go to the doctor's with cheesy pants on, and to complete my day, it's official that I have strep. . .and I have to go to freakin' school tomorrow. JOY!! 
Oh, and The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer comes out tomorrow!! I just hope it won't be disappointing. 
Well, now I must go and beg my mom to stay home tomorrow because I feel like someone ran over the back of my throat.

Ciao,

Playing with your Nook in class, I don't do it

Mood: Mad/Happy/Hungry
Song playing: NCIS theme song :P
Inspiration:     


Playing with your Nook Color is wrong. . .I don't do it (1) because I don't have a Nook Color and (2) I'm that kind of girl. So when I see a girl playing with her Nook Color instead of grading MY paper. . .I get seriously angry. . .not to mention SHE GRADED IT WRONG. It says 96% but in my gut/heart I know it's an 92% :(
Shhhhhhh. I'm not going to tell my teacher. . . .maybe. . .it depends on how guilty I'm feeling tomorrow. XD
Anyway, I got an 80% on my grammar, so I'm retaking it because I had getting bad grades and not correcting them.
I also have a new addiction to Fanta orange soda. Don't ask, it's just REALLY addicting and good with cheese. Really. Seriously it's good.
Well, I need to go read Pride & Prejudice, so Ciao. 








P.S. And there will be info on my nano novel coming soon!

Novel issues!

Mood: Depressed. :(
Song playing right now: Michael Meets Mozart -- Jon Schmidt 
((IT'S AMAZING))
Pic of the day: 


My novel just doesn't want to be written. It keeps posing all of these problems and then shoves them in my face. Like for instance, the other day I realized "How is Morgan going to meet Ezra?" I mean really!? I should've figured that out a long time ago. Then "What is her family like?", I realized that I wanted her to have a big family, so now I have another problem "Kim and Kitty (they're twins) are talented students so they go to a different school than the rest of the family, also because they're the youngest. So where do they go?"
I swear, it just wants to be left alone. . .it's like a puppy when they want to sleep, they get cranky sometimes bite you but then you let them sleep and they wake up happy. XD
Last night I actually stayed up till 12:30 writing my new novel. When I looked at the time I was like "What the?!", it honestly scared me. After, I went to bed and listened to Pride and Prejudice. . .but then I fell asleep while listening to it so I drained my iPod's battery. :P

I better get writing!

Visions/Gifted and much much more

Mood: Excited!
Song playing right now: 
 Bonamana by Super Junior ((It's Korean. . .or Japanese))

Picture of the day: 


Today I was talking to my mom about my Visions/Gifted/Advanced English class. . .my mom told me that that was what she was learning in her eighth grade English class. That's sad, I mean, we should be learning all this in a normal English eighth grade class. -_- I mean, I still feel smart, but now it makes the kids in the normal classes seem somewhat dumb.
That was the main topic of my post today. :P Now onto my teeth!
I saw my cavity using two mirrors and four hands. XD Yes the dentist showed me the cavity. Pretty scary. My right side of my mouth, and parts of my cheek were all numb. I had soup later that evening and swished it to that side and couldn't feel it. I then swallowed and I was like "I have soup in my mouth?!". It was fun.
On another note, I'm doing GREAT on my novel. . .I feel so bad that I'm obsessed with Morie (the MC) and her romantic relationship with her teacher. "It's so wrong, but so right." -- Morgan Radcliff  BTW, I love Aria and Ezra on PLL and that's were Morie and Ezra's appearances came from. . .yeah, I stole Ezra's name. :P I couldn't find any other name that could fit. I still can't come up with a title, so if you have a title PLEASE COMMENT or SHOOT ME AN EMAIL.

The Word Bird (2)


Mood: Nervous (about getting my cavity filled tomorrow O_e)
Song playing right now: NCIS LA theme song
Picture of the day:

Where I am in the writing process: I'm in the character development stage. XD My characters were talking to me about astronomy (I don't get that though) and were chatting while walking through some random park in my brain. It was a really nice empty park. . . Now that I think about it, it looked like the lawn at Biltmore.


My current problems: I'm trying to decide when to make my character pregnant or not to at all. It would probably be in like a sequel or 
something. . .


My question this week (to all of you awesome folk): Do your characters talk to you?

1984!

Mood: Happy!
Song playing right now: Starry Eyed by Ellie Goulding
Picture of the day: 
Oh my god. SO HOT. I'MMMM BUUURRRNNNIIINNNGGG.

The book 1984 is an amazing book so far. It's a classic. Not many people say that this book is good, but I'm enjoying this a lot. . . It's probably because I'm a writer and I appreciate good literature. XD Okay, that's probably no why, but ya know, I like the book.
My English teacher, Mr.H, he asked if there were any writers in the class. . .I raised my hand. Oh yeah. I am a writer. 
BTW, I am re-reading Pride and Prejudice and let me say, it is SO MUCH enjoyable the second time! I read this last year, and liked it. I'm on chapter 5 and I'm loving it. XD IT'S GREAT!!
And if you guys don't know, my fav singer right now is Ellie Goulding. She sang at the Royal Wedding. Yeah, epic right?  That's her. Right there. Yeah >>

She's British. Did you know that the majority of British people are awesome? My friend is British. . .you could say that proves my theory. 

Alright, well I have to go study some grammar. That is really, honestly, truly horrible. -_- I need Christmas break to happen NNNNOOOOWWW.








P.S. If you have a severe case of writer's block, this link may help. Ask you doctor if this inspiration is right for you. ;)

A book report? WHAT?

WOOOO! I'm in advanced English!!
Okay, so you may think 'well that's awesome Anna'. . .well it's not. We have four book reports that we have to do this year and we have to read a book together as a class. -_-  For my book report I'm reading Pride and Prejudice. . .I read it last year. Shhhhhhh. 
The one problem with being in advanced English is that I have no time to write!  :(  So sad. *whimper* Luckily, I have the chance to collect funny and strange quotes. . . You could say I'm eavesdropping. . .but eavesdropping is wrong.
Here's a line that I got from one of my classmates. . . 
"I ate like, eighty flapjacks yo."

And then one from my friend. I will tease her about this forever.
"Let's play flapjack!" XD She meant to say slap-jack, it's a card game. 

Yikes! I have to go work on Spanish and English homework. (LOL!) 

TTYL!










P.S. Every post I'm going to post a picture for inspiration! They're always found on weheartit.com

I'm addicted!

School starts tomorrow. *drops to knees* NNOOOOOOOOO!!! *clears throat* Sorry, but I'm just so sad about the end of this amazing summer.
Well, about the addicted part. . .
I found this amazing site that I think should be a tool that every writer uses. It's great for writing prompts and sparking your imagination.
It's We Heart It! It's an amazing site full of cool pics that are sure to spark your imagination.
Like these. . .

















































Yeah, it's pretty awesome and there are some pretty awesome pics on the site. I'm addicted now, and I love it. ;)
Well, I have to go and get school supplies along with trying to start my novel. You can check out the novel on my Current Novel page!

Finally back online and ready for action!

I finally got up off of my lazy writing bum and decided to post a blog post. :)
-thirty minutes later-
I got sidetracked by youtube. -_- So you wanna know what I'm listening to? Well, I found this great new artists, Ellie Goulding. AMAZING! *hits replay button* WOOOO!
BTW, if you didn't notice, I survived Irene. . .jeez I almost forgot her name.

Anyways, we lost power for FIVE days. It sucked and let's just say, I drew one portrait finished a HUGE one, and then wrote two pages of my novel. :)
Yes, I do draw. . . but I can only draw human faces. This is Chloe King from the new TV show The Nine Lives of Chloe King. I'm sorry about the fuzziness, but my iPod's camera needs to be cleaned. BTW, I did take an art class that focused on 2d and 3d art, I was working on something else when our instructor was explaining shading, so the shading was just pure raw talent. XD Actually I just guessed on how to do all the shading.














And this is the aftermath of the flour bag incident with one of my dogs.


















Well, I hope you like the pics! Oh and I have a cool new site that I think you should really check out. ;)
