Almost August

I think Daphne’s going to annoy me again on Switched At Birth after last week’s episode! :/ I think (pretty sure) I blogged about her a LONG time ago back in season 2, when she was insufferable (for lack of better adjective), and she looks to be getting there again :/ But seriously - she’s blaming Regina for Angelo’s death and yelling at Bay for trying to help her? And then her whole, “I did cocaine - what are you going to do about it?’ bit and her trying WAY too hard to be bad..ugh, I’m just not forward to looking at her antics next week. She KISSED some guy who trashed her mother! But then again Daphne’s going back to blaming her mom for EVERYTHING like she’s done in the past. Ugh :/

Aside from that…it was nice that Bay got to meet her cousin (though the brain damage being hereditary thing wasn’t pleasant…) and her sister :) See, I don’t wanna compare (or maybe I do…but I seriously don’t wanna say one is better than the other), but I’ve heard people say that Bay’s bratty and rebellious, and yes, she can act like that, but (as someone on IMDB pointed out once) Bay owes up to her mistakes quickly enough. Daphne does not. More than that, Bay seems to not have this attitude about how she’s righteous and can do no wrong :/

I caught up with Sherlock Monday! I didn't like season 3's episode as much (I don't think they should have made Mary an assassin), but it was still very good, to say the least. And I'm not sure whether or not Moriarty's back - there are done theories out there online, but I guess I'll have to wait until 2016 to find out! By the way, I DON'T WANNA WAIT 2 YEARS FOR A NEW EPISODE!!! Just thought I'd get it out there. Yeah, I've become a little occupied with the show...having random moments where Sherlock appears in my head or even in my dreams (though, frankly, I don't mind staring at Benedict Cumberbatch's face ;)...like Irene Adler, I've become Sherlocked. I actually might read the books now, though I doubt it'll be like the series. But you know, they say the book's usually better!

I started watching The Fosters on Netflix Tuesday and am really enjoying it! Unfortunately, my sister said that they took season 2 off (I know they did take it off my cue for awhile), so I can't catch up on it fully, but at least I can enjoy some of it :) I realized that I am in the ABC Family target audience (I think it should be renamed "Teen ABC" because most of the shoes are aimed at female adolescents), and I've enjoyed a lot of their shoes (The Nine Lives of Chloe King, Switched At Birth, The Fosters, and, from what I saw of it, Chasing Life), but what do these all have in common? They're family dramas, of course! Soap opera-ish, I suppose, but I love the family aspect of it all ^_^

I don't know if I put this up last week (doubt that I did), but uh...I FINISHED MY CAMP NANOWRIMO STORY THIS YEAR!!! Well, not "officially", since I got an email saying that I would have to confirm this by the 25 or so, but I know that I am done with my story, baby! Whoohoo!!! Fourth draft of the first Hyper-Monkey book is finished!!! :D YEAH!!! Of course it needs a LOT of editing and I really doubt that I needed that 30,000 word length, but the fact is that I'm finally DONE!!!

And now I wanna take a break! XD So next month I'm gonna rewrite Lizard-Man's first story (yeah, I'm trying that one again), but I want to see if I can get some outward input on it - I still feel like it's too similar to Lizard-Man. But I dint want to publish it on Figment or Movellas or whatever...well, actually, I do, but I don't know if anyone will plagiarize my idea when it's free to read online and don't want to take that risk...

Unfortunately, I think it's good that I did that, because one of my Figment friends sent me an email that showed a post via her blog of her warning other users about putting their favorite written stories online because she got hers stolen in a roleplaying game :/ And the same thing happened on Fanfiction.net with someone who wrote a Selection fanfic I loved - and that was a fanfiction, which already claims to not own people's original works! I wonder if this is a message from the universe, a warning from God, because I had considered posting my stories (the ones I want to get published) online, and now this shows up. Still, I feel so bad for my friends :( I can't imagine how devastated I'd feel if someone did the same to me :/

My dad’s birthday was Wednesday!!! :) I can’t believe he’s 48 :O in my mind, my mom stopped aging at 40 and my dad stopped aging at 45 xD lol

I finished reading “Champion” Friday! Like Prodigy and Legend, it was really good. I love how all of the books are pretty much 4-stat quality entertainment. This one was more intense, though, and I didn’t like how Day forgot his memory of June and I really don’t like how June then decided to start over and not tell Day the truth. But the epilogue was nice. Overall, it was a really good book, and I’m glad it had a happy ending to it :)

I’m a little excited right now because I WON CAMPNANOWRIMO THIS YEAR!!!! YES!!! I mean I know I said I was done with it before, but Friday I got to get a really cool certificate! AND PRIZES! I THOUGH I WOULD JUST GET THE CERTIFICATE??? THIS IS AWESOMESAUCE ASHSDKCF!!!

Anyway…I know my story needs editing like CRAZY, and I must admit that I stopped editing the last few chapters because I honestly got tired of seeing that Hyper-Monkey story, and I really didn’t need a word limit, I mean, I just wanted to edit parts here and there…but whatever! The goal of NaNoWriMo is just to go in there and get it done, right? That’s exactly what I did :) And I’m proud. NaNoWriMo helped me not procrastinate all the time because I actually had a deadline (not just by the end of July, but a word limit everyday). I loved how they could hold me accountable for that. I am going to try to do that next month, when I edit my Lizard-Man story. 

I feel like I always end my posts in "Well, that's it for the week. Bye!", but I don't know what else to say! :P But yeah, that's it...I feel like the same things pretty much happen every week...not that that's bad, but, you know, just an observation...anyway, bye! :D
