This is the blog of 7 girls chosen to live in the most ROCKING flat ever to grace the streets of London that fateful Fall of 2006. Now that we've graduated, this is the next best thing to weekly flat dinners. Please update early and often, and honorary flat members (you know who you are) can feel free to send updates to one of us and have those posted on here as well. GIT-'R'-DONE!

Reckless Writing

Hey guys, sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Things have picked up and I'm in the thick of researching for papers. I have three of them, one for each class, and fortunately there's only one that has to be 20-25 pages, but still. You can imagine, it's a lot of work.

In addition, I have taken up the National Novel Writing Month challenge again, which has been going great. I'm currently at about 62,000 words, which means I've officially passed the requirement of 50,000 words, making me a winner. I'm in the midst of my final climactic battle scene and am hoping to finish the novel before the end of November, although with schoolwork picking up, it'll be interesting to see how rushed it turns out. At any rate, you can scan the synopsis of it, read an excerpt, and track my progress here, if you so wish.

Life is going quite well outside of school and novel land. I've made some good close friends who are keeping me sane, the weather has been dipping only into the mid 60's at the coldest (today it was 77!) and I can feel that Christmas break is nearly here. As it is, I'm preparing to gorge myself on Turkey Day. It's gonna be great.

I hope you guys are all doing well! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Only in LA


To be fair, it WAS outside a sleepwear store in Santa Monica. But still...That's hilarious! :-P
