With more than a vague sense of guilt . . .

It has been a very long time since I last posted here, hasn't it? I can't think why. I kept up with my posting while I was working in Japan, but when I find myself with copious amounts of free time suddenly it seems too much effort. It is illogical.

I did not do so well with the NaNoWriMo. I had been doing practically nothing for the duration of September and October, and as soon as I decided to do something that would take up a lot of that free time, Life Happened. On November 2nd I had a job interview. I didn't get that job, but shortly afterwards my mother arranged for me to have an interview at her work. Since late November I have been working full time. I am on a fixed term contract that will end next February. The work I am doing is very basic. I am a mail sorter of sorts. But at least it is money.

I applied for the Diploma in Publishing that is offered by Whitireia Polytechnic. Shortly afterwards I had an interview for said course. I will find out next January whether I will be studying next year or not.

Until last week I was attending a Tuesday evening art class. It was fun, but now it is finished.

Oh, and a week ago I had a birthday.

So, after all that I only managed to write 7,800 words for NaNoWriMo which was no where near the target of 50,000 words. Oh, well.
