Well, with Thanksgiving tomorrow, I’m actually quite excited. Not because my mom is making her dessert she only makes during holidays or my birthday. It’s because it’s another day closer to Christmas.
One reason I’m excited about Christmas is that there’s no school for TWO WEEKS! WHOO! That means no homework, and I don’t have to worry about my research paper since it’s due the day before we leave for break.
Another reason is that I’m getting books on editing my own writing. I’ve started thinking about what I want to be in life and, well, I don’t want to have a boring desk job at an insurance company like my parents do. I want to use my creativity for something that I can change the world with. So, I decided to become an author. Hey, if Stephanie Meyer didn’t have any writing experience before she wrote Twilight, who says I can’t become and author too?
Unfortunately, I have a long way to go. Fanfiction writer like Dudly, Link and Luigi, KiriharaAkaya, awin-chan, and many others are light years ahead of me. I need to get better if I’m going to reach my dream.
My mom’s also supporting me with this (she tends to support my decisions the most). She said that she would try her hardest to try and buy the books on my list if it’s the last thing she does, which is good because I seriously need them.
I’ve already started on my first all original character work since……forever. It’s a typical story you would expect from me since it has fantastical elements to it but not too many. I don’t want to say too much about because whenever I give a summary of an OC story I’m planning I end up never finishing it. Hopefully, that won’t happen to this one.
Another thing I’d like to talk about is the Twilight movie. Honestly, I think Stephanie Meyer was lucky when she wrote the book, but she has a captivating writing style that makes people love her books. In my opinion, she needs to work on developing her characters and not making them so sueish. If she did that, she could be at the top of my favorite writers list. Until that happens, she stays near the bottom.
Now, the movie, in my opinion, was better than the book. It might be because I could see it and Bella was clumsier. If only they didn’t have the whole ‘I-can’t-read-your-mind’ thing because she’s “special”. Other than that, it was good. I sort of…..was laughing at the entire movie……I don’t know why…….But I did…..
