Day Eight

I've been trying to get ahead with my word count lately, and especially today since I'm going to be busy this week. I have a 1,000 word essay due this Friday that I haven't even started working on. I highly doubt I'll be able to start writing it until Thursday. Eh.

Anyways, I should be talking about NaNoWriMo. One week has officially come and gone, and I've got to say, this has been one of the longest weeks of my life. It's tough to believe that there is a whopping 22 days left (or 21, since it's technically Wednesday).

I'm really hoping I can get to 15,000 words tonight, but I'm not getting my hopes up too high. I'm determined to go to sleep at a decent time (meaning, before 3 a.m.). I'm horribly sleep-deprived, and that's never good when you have multiple assignments due and loads of work that needs to get done.

To end this post on a slightly more positive note: "Pressing Flowers" by the Civil Wars has been my best form of inspiration this week. Seriously, the song is beautiful. I love it (and any other song by the Civil Wars for that matter).
