I'm almost at 24,000 words for NaNo, and I really like my story idea and the direction things are going. It's making me realize how much I miss fic and how RP has taken nearly two years away from my stories :\ Not that it's a bad thing, but I can't seem to do both.

I'm losing inspiration at Riv. I barely post anymore, even though I have awesome CR with people. On the other hand, I hardly have any CR at Edensphere, yet I'm logged in there almost twice as much.

Hakkai got booted, even though I swear I said I was dropping him in December. I need to get going on his goodbye log. >> Youji isn't fairing much better, and I haven't been watching Bleach, so I have no idea what I'm doing with Renji. Spidey just... doesn't have anything to do.

I don't want to disappoint the people I've made friends with. But I don't know how to make myself more into it again.

I'm going to be slow on my RP responses, and I've hiatused from the TCG for the month of November, as I'll be doing National Novel Writing Month. I'll be posting updates on my story for this month. I also changed my layout to go with my new default icon.

If I post on any other topic that's not a matter of life or death, ask me why I'm not writing.

:| Happy Halloween, flist! I'll be at work all night tonight.

I hate when I have to do this. It's been over a month since one of the jobs I applied for closed, and no decision made, so I had to e-mail the coordinator HR person and I hate doing that. I feel like I'm intruding, or they're just going to read it as a whiny kid going "WHY DIDN'T YOU GIVE ME THIS JOB YET?!?!" when really, I just want to know if I should still keep waiting on it or save myself the agony and keep looking elsewhere. I must have edited 5 times.

On a lighter note, is meme time. Stolen from flist.

Pick a fandom I'm in or a roleplay I'm in, and I'll give you...

1. One True Pairing Ship:
2. Canon Ship:
3. "If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with something that is not a spork because people who say 'spork' are the worst people on earth" Ship:
4. "You are one sick puppy" Ship:
5. "I dabble a little" Ship:
6. "It's like a car crash" Ship:
7. "Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship:
8. "Makes no canon sense but why the heck not" Ship:
9. "Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship:

I've been so excited about Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 that I actually preordered the game. It came in today, so I went down to Gamestop (my new BFF that texts me when things are ready @_@) and picked it up.

I'm loving it so far. The Wii version is pretty different from what I've seen of the PS3 and 360 versions, and the controls aren't too hard to handle once you figure everything out. I'm still in the "Prologue" thing, invasion of Latveria.

Currently, my party consists of Spider-Man (who were you expecting?), Wolverine, Hulk, and Deadpool (who is kinda sneaking into my top 5 faves list). Being the 4th wall-breaker he is, he heckles me when I accidentally kill him. XD "You let that guy beat me?!"

I haven't explored the fusions very much, but I think my favorite of what I've seen so far is Spider-Man and Deadpool's fusion, which seems to involve DP shooting a crapload of bullets and Spidey webbing them to multiple targets. All of Hulk's seem to be centered around throwing the other person around.

I almost finished Harry Potter before I started this new game, but this is much shinier and so far, a lot less frustrating. In HP, the Wii remote has trouble sensing the different manuevers for the different spells and I end up casting Protego instead of.. well, pretty much everything else.

Ahaha... guess what, I'm still alive. Saiyuki Kink Meme dragged me out of hibernation.

Decent for something whipped out in 24hrs.

Anon Meme Praise?

I never believe it when I see stuff like this. It makes my entire life.

So, aside from all the trading cards and RPing nonsense I've been up to, sometimes I do think about my future.

With one month left until my program ends, I'm ready to go.

I haven't had a very good time overall. I can't do anything right at my job, I don't have any friends here, the guy only wanted sex, and my roommates dislike me.

Story of my life.

Macy's parade has just been Rickrolled.

I keep forgetting to update. I'm still alive, having now spent just over three months in Florida.

( Summary )

I've been down in Florida for a month now and there's been good and bad going on. The vise-like grip RP has had on my brain seems to be settling down and allowing me to balance and think about fanfic again (after what, 7 months? *shame*). Hah, I bet no one even remembers me.

Good Stuff:
- I have a job that I like and coworkers that I like.
- I met a guy. We are... friends. For now. Maybe.
- I've been surviving on my own well enough.
- I'm starting to get my priorities in order.

Bad Stuff:
- I am quite a bit homesick at times.
- I never really go anywhere, because I don't have a car and
- I have no money, ever.

This little 3hr tour excursion is helping me decide stuff though. I am about 100% sure that I'm going to look for jobs in Columbus in the coming months. As in, I actually want to move back to/live in Ohio.

Continuing in my tradition of only updating in the middle of every month, I thought I'd let everyone know about the first few days of my new job.

Rest in peace, Sasha. You were more loved than you will ever know. I'm just glad you're not suffering anymore, baby.

[My dog passed away yesterday after a long illness.]

As you know, when you're not online, life happens.

I graduate in a little over a month now, and everything is all set. Once I graduate, we'll be taking a family vacation for about 4 days. Then, after that, it's off to my working vacation. ^^

Okay, I guess not really. But from June until January of next year, I will be in an internship with the Walt Disney World theme park in Orlando, Florida. I'm really excited and I hope that this could lead to a potential future career with them.

I'll probably be pretty sparse when June rolls around, although I'll have my computer down there with me. I'll be working a lot, but I'll still try to work on my stories and stuff on my free days.

So, I haven't updated in a while. A long while. *tears* I know it may feel like I've abandoned my LJ, or my fandoms, or my pairing (heavens no!), but I assure you that it's not the case.
