NaNo Day 1

[fadagaski]

I totally just embarrassed myself by shouting "Hello!" to a random girl who was checking out our sign at Starbucks in Geneva. Oh well! I'm an ML - it's my job to welcome people to our little collection of writers ... of which we have four including myself! Yay! Two Swiss girls and an American, so far, with a collective wordcount of about 1000 words. HAHAHA. And we're sat right by the front door so we get an awful cold draft, but there's electrical power here so that's good.

Have you noticed that the music and atmosphere in Starbucks lends itself ONLY to quirky romantic comedies. I guess that's why so many are set in coffee shops, because it's really difficult to picture someone like Jason Bourne there about to blow it up or something. Blargh.

Okay. Writing. I posted my second chapter on FFNet today, and the current writing project is Shelke's first appearance, so it's ... odd. Especially because it's SHELKE, whom I didn't really like in DOC. Oh well.

Didn't know you were doing Nanowrimo this year! I feel so lost.

*patpat*

How are you anyway? You can talk to me in the evenings now because I HAVE INTERNET. LOLZ0RZ.

I'm beyond exhausted. Eight months to go until Summer.

*HUUUUG*

You can come see me next summer if you want. Or I can come to you, whatever.

Ugh... Starbucks/Costa. Overpriced corporate arses booting out the little, high street family owned coffee shops from the world. How can the atmosphere be "quirky" if it's uniformed across a franchise?

We should all avoid Starbucks and Costa and support our local little coffee shops. Thank God there is not a single Starbucks in Milan. Italy is one of the last safe havens from corporate coffee shops.

Not that I don't agree or anything, but did you ever see that episode of South Park when the corporate coffee shop moved to town?

Blergh. Shelke.

Let...us...all...speak...in...monotone...for...the...rest...of...our...lives...

And then some.

Shelke when drunk. Hm. I wonder what that would be like.

Also you must write me a Cid/Vincent bit. Even if it's just vague hints.

It's true that she was dull as dishwater in the game, and is probably going to read the same in my fic, but she's very good at covering a lot of ground in a short space of time. I like writing her, especially because now she has boobies, and she doesn't know what to make of them.

Cid called Vincent first when Marlene was kidnapped, and Vincent immediately agreed to come help him look. Does that count?

[bustahead.livejournal.com]

It counts but only VERY mildly. *frowns* I expected something better from my fellow slash fan. *sniff*

Am working on my article. Will probably post it on LJ when it's done.

*hangs head in shame* Sorry. I'll try better.

Come on MSN! I'm ONLINE NOW.
