I have been banned from goodreads for placing a book on my "nope" shelf. No warning, no nothing. Banned.

...although it's already February. *coughs sheepishly*

Hopefully everyone's doing well. I've been sooooo busy, it's not even funny. Besides trying to find a job (that wasn't a Christmas gig because I was away at Christmas at Disney World and Universal Studios Harry Potter World). I've been mainly doing errands and a bunch of things for people around the house and helping with various chores and whatnot. I won't bore you with the details because it was draining--both mentally and physically, hell even emotionally. As you might have guessed, I did not nab a job although I was close multiple times. I just keep getting the short end of the stick and bad luck mainly. But I haven't given up yet, I will get something at some point! And it will have been worth the struggle...I hope? o-o;

Also November I finally participated in NaNoWriMo and yes, I did complete 50K of words (actually 52K but that's besides the point). Although I'm not done with it, I'm still trying to finish it. Unfortunately my brain's been on vacation along with all the pressure and stress I've been getting concerning job-wise among other personal issues (very emotionally draining kind, I'm sure you understand).

BUT I am starting to write again despite everything. Sure, it may be my crappiest but at least I'm writing and making some progress even if it's only a few sentences here and there plus ramblings, lots and lots of ramblings. But I digress, I feel like Anna (from Frozen) right her every time I write because I am persevering regardless of everything, and hopefully it's only going to improve and get better.

On the other note, I'll be taking a Librarian Tech course(s) soon as I figure out what college is best for me, whether in person or online is the best course of action. I'm leaning towards online so I can have a job and do everything at my own pace (to a degree). Not sure where I'm squeezing in reading and writing, etc into it but I'll manage somehow I'm sure.

Also 2015, gosh, it really had quite a few surprises, a shock among other things, but I've survived them thankfully. One major one was mainly a misunderstanding and my being so busy over the course of 2 months. And others, let's just say I'd love to shove them aside and go "NOPE" but I can't...as well as other matters...

BUT any ways, moving on!

Yes, it's February 2015, but I'd figured it was time to update this with what I've been doing and will be doing over the course of the year. I do have some goals I want to reach and achieve by the year's end, but it's only the beginning still. Lots of things can change at a moment's notice--both good and bad. I'm looking forward to a lot of new things to happen this year, it's a good feeling staying positive and whatnot.

Hopefully my next update is soon, not late like this one was, just NOPE.

....since I've been on here. But with my schedule, I just didn't have time to be EVERYWHERE, unless I cloned myself 5 times. But I'm back now and should be able to pop on here every once in a while.

Also joined Wattpad, and posting (meaning continuing) hauntedROOM a pseudo-paranormal psychological thriller. I'll be positing the next chapters soon as I can once I locate my word document from my old laptop. You can read here: http://www.wattpad.com/story/23711047-hauntedroom

Oh, and the novella I've been working on? It's in the process of being edited and beta read by 3 people. I have to get my act together otherwise I'm going to get rioted rofl. But this is great that it actually feels like this is coming true, y'know? The whole process towards getting published. It's so exciting for me!

Plus, job hunting as per usual since my last job was a seasonal one. Also I'm taking my driver's test sometime before the end of this month amongst other things. There's still lots for me to do in between writing and reality at times. So don't worry, I will be around, just need to get myself and life straightened out then I can relax and actually know what I'm doing. But right now there's so much unknown that I can't really say when or where I'm going lol.

Thank you for sticking with me though, I really appreciate it. :3

It's official. I've graduated university with a degree in English. How awesome is that?
