October

 October has come and that means many things.
1) I can no longer sit comfortably in my house without a sweater on.
2) I should probably actually buy decent slippers.
3) Rain. Nonstop rain. For weeks now. Not yet, but it'll come, it always does.
4) It's pretty much impossible to wake up early with the above mentioned weather.
5) Costume making because I love to make costumes for halloween. Even though I will only be handing out candy this year because of... weather.
6) A month away from November which will lead right into. NaNoWriMo. Along with my insane plan to try and multitask two stories. Which means trying to reach a word count goal for one, and edit the other. (Edit-translation-completely rewrite.)

 Now, also because I'm stuck indoors, not by choice but by common sense with this really sucky part of Autumn, I now am deciding to get to all those random mishmash of art projects I've been wanting to do. Whether it be painting, writing, drawing, who knows. I do know that I've planned to use an cool thick glass bottle and paint it on the inside like a mason jar and put a spray of fake flowers in it. So much fun, but will only take the equivalent of half an afternoon. So beginning now, I am both planning, and not planning my NaNoWriMo novels, one I'm planning, one I'm pantsing. Trying to actually put my room together and go through all the unpacked mess that is my life that's still in boxes from over a year ago. Figure out what to do with my hair that's too long to do anything with besides a brain and a super loose messy bun. It will more likely than not end up getting donated once more. Even though I promised I wouldn't cut off that much hair ever again, it's really past the point of reasonable length.
 If it were to be measured-from the nape of my neck to where is ends is about 23 inches.
 Seriously, why do I have such long hair. Then, toying with the idea of dying the ends of it purple or green.
 Then the slightly longer than momentary idea to work my way up to a bob.
The 20's are coming again people! And I don't know what the rest of think, or if you even care for that matter, but I would rather like bringing back some of the old 20's fashion, I think it would be great! But with some more modern twists as it would inevitably happen if the styles did begin to come back. So a bobbed cut with some more 20's style fashion. Almost a dream come true for me!

    I vote for dyeing the tips of your hair! That actually sounds pretty cool.

A daily life

Or a day in life, both are correct when you think about it.  So a number of things are already happening today, and other things being planned on getting done today. But for now, as far as things have happened already today: Tai Chi, calculated my bedroom to see if I could survive living in a Japanese sized apartment (Which I could), got excited about re-hydrating myself (constant state of dehydration, you're going down.) to the point where I've given myself a painful case of the hiccups, and looked at some old family photos.  As far as what else is planned for today: Painting, eating lunch, some school I guess if I can actually grasp any of it, and getting rid of these hiccups!!  So apparently the average size of a Japanese apartment is around 1,300 sq. ft. My bedroom is (rounded up) 259 sq. ft. Yes, I have a very large room, but to be fair I've got it essentially set up as an ultra mini apartment, and could probably very happily live in something just as big. Just...

Villains

What do you think makes a villain a villain? A question proposed by a friend over on NaNoWriMo, Leila offered a question that made me realize, that I might have a very complicated, yet possibly not all that hard to grasp, idea on what a villain actually is, and is not.  A villain needs to be lots of things all wrapped up into one, and often times not everything all at once. A villain is usually someone who has at least one keystone to their personality that either rivals, or is the protagonists fear and/or vice. For instance, two of my own characters from a novel I did in 2014.   V will be villain, P will be protagonist. V1: I am suave, I offer compliments and disguise my observations as questions to gain more information. As well as being versed in the language of the country I am in, my main goal is to operate in the shadows and go as unnoticed as possible, unless I see my spotlight waning. P1: I can do away with superfluous comments or manners, I will ask d...

By the grace of God

 It is only by the grace of God that I am still standing here on this earth. It is only by the grace of God that I draw breath, and am whole. Everything I am, is by the Grace of God.  Two years ago, a part of my life started that would not end for a long time, and is in some ways still ongoing.  Two years ago, in 2014, unknowingly began what I would now call the year of hell.  I was a bystander to verbal abuse and hate. I lived in close quarters with people that I became to be afraid of, and did not speak up. I hid, and I tried to hide in ways that never really worked, but have now become habits that are hard to break.  I kept silent during the calms, for fear that a wrong word would stir up a storm from a simple disagreement.  I often took to walking to a friends house just down the road, to see if they were outside and could hang out for a while. And to my knowledge they still don't know what transpired.  It is only by the grace of God that I ...
