Holidays!

At last.. the holidays have come! It's time for sleep, food, games, sleep, more food, late nights, games... and yeah, more sleep! But, alas, it was not to be...

On mon and tues I worked, today I did assignments (and wrote my book, thanks to my awesome editor, the one with the English Lit Degree, yeah, you... dont get a swelled head.) I still have assignments to do for English, Physics, Specialist and Chem.. yeah, my hols aren't gonna be a huge amount of fun ='(.

On the upside.. my foot is pretty much better (see the post below) and I can play bball again! Woo! Got wheelchair tomorrow, should win.. but you never can tell =).

Anyway.. gtg now, try to post again soon!

What to talk about?

Well, I don't really have a specific topic here, I though that I might just give my loyal fans (ie. you) an update..

My book is coming well, got just over 50 pages, got the plot going well. If you want a preview go here: http://www.the-shadow-wraiths.webs.com/

BBall: we are still losing, shouldn't be in div. 1. Ah well.. we might don't have a chance tonight..
Wheelchair is still going strong, haven't lost a game when I have played

Games and stuff: well, I am addicted to a few new ones:
http://www.funorb.com/ Steel sentinels and
Armies of Gielinor

Skool: Meh. Pretty much sums it up =P

Extra! Extra! Read all about it!

Hey all, I'm back again with a really short post:

If you want a sneak preview of the book I'm writing (The Shadow-Wraiths) go to www.the-shadow-wraiths.webs.com, there is a forum so you can say hi and leave comments and, of course, the first part of my book. This is just so you can see some of my writing and maybe give some constructive criticism.

Last night we had out first bball game in Div 1! It was fun even though we lost 40-29. I scored 5 or 6 so I'm happy. next game: Razzle (we might have a chance against them.)

Writers block

Ahh.. the curse of all writers! I have wrote a few chapters all well and good, but now I am stuck on an idea. Oh well, I will manage.

What about you? Is there anyone out there who has started writing a book? Don't be shy, post a reply!

On other news:
We have been moved into Division 1 in basketball. Ohh.. we are gonna sooo get smashed.
Maths specialist isn't too bad, just long.. and complicated. But apparently we will be going into some year 12 calculus soon *shudders* Save me!

Don't we love books?
