So lately, I've trying to make a better attempt to understanding/learning Lithuania. And although it probably sounds funny, I've been taking what my teenage and older cousins say on facebook and putting it into google translate, and being like...Oh I knew that word.
For example I learned:
Kas Geras (which I had heard both desperately) means: What's Good?
Darba= Work.
slow progress...baby steps.
In other news. I saw Miss. Carolyn friday night. And although it kinda turned into the "roast of blank blankety" (which I kinda knew it would) we talked about how Tamile is getting married and we were invited to her wedding! As well as what the next several years are to bring. It was nice. It's really nice to know that I have friends that I can go months without seeing and it's like nothing changes.
And of course, this wouldn't be an entry if I didn't talk about TZN. I have 9 typed chapters, as well as one handwritten one that needs to go on the computer. Jon has been very helpful when it comes to me telling him what I want to do and him either being like "Oh cool." or "EW that's really dumb, I would do this." Maybe the Book should be called "The Zombie Novellas" By Kelly Robideau w/ Jonathan Beyus. hahah or not.:)
I really need to just suck it up and put part of it up here. I guess I feel so excited and different about this one that I don't want someone to burst my happy bubble if they think it is boring/sucks. One thing that I will say is, I love the fact that I'm writing it from 4 different perspectives. So you get each different personality. Like I just finished writing two chapters as Kasia (the main character)and now I'm writing a chapter as Patrick who once seemed like a pervert but I actually love him now!!! Because he is the conflict and the drama that prolongs (spoiler alert) Kasia and Sam getting together. Its been really fun to write his frustration and all that. Chapter 11 should be fun...heehee :D
Pretty much, I've written lots of stories before...but never has one brought me as much joy as this one. Which is kind of funny because it's not exactly a happy one. But it's something I look forward to doing. Much more than work, more than school, more than ACAbellas even. I know shocker. I feel like there was a time were playing music (perhaps in high school) made me feel happy. But not like this. Maybe this was how it should have been all along. :)
Lets find out...
