The Awesome List

[Jennifer]

So, I've wanted to be a writer since I was about ten. since then a heck of a lot of random projects but nothing that I ever actually concretely finished. This isn't something saying I've finished a novel, but since the new year, I've been showing a kind of discipline that I frankly didn't think I had in me and forcing myself to sit down and write at least 1,000 words every day. I'm currently at 14,000 in the two weeks since the new year (before today's words, as I have been working on an essay -_-), and I just feel great about it - it's an unprecedented amount of productivity apart from nanowrimo, which burned me out. More motivated than I've been in a long time, and starting to get this little bit of belief that this is actually the novel that I'm going to complete.

[Dorling]

Good stuff Jenn! I have a couple of examples of 40-50k word books that I've never finished somewhere on my hard drive.

I got my first ship appointment today. With effect from the 11th Feb (or thereabouts, these things are subject to change) I'll be gone for 4 months.

I can't tell you where and when I'll be exactly, military secrets and all that, but I will get to take in parts of the Mediterranean and the Arabian Gulf during my time away. Really excited because I know I'm going to be doing some cool shit, like flight training, anti-piracy patrols and diplomatic stuff too.

Fuck working behind a desk!

Awesome week! Managed to see my beloved CPFC beat Southampton at St Marys on Saturday, passed my theory test today with very little revision and off to see Bournemouth vs Watford tomorrow night! Things be good

After months of hating my job I finally decided today to say fuck it and am turning in my notice. I've saved up enough money for 3 months worth of bills while I look for something better

This thread makes me smile...its awesome great news to all around Jen, Dorling, Justin, Josh and Rob just from what I can see on here.

[! JDM The Professional !]

Band has its second gig this Thursday, pretty excited!

[Justin]

I will be walking into the bank today on my lunch break and handing them a check that will pay my car off two years and three months early.

[Duckman]

That's awesome man! Nothing better than clearing a debt and doing it so far ahead of time! Bet you felt great knowing that's cleared and the car is yours.

Good work to JDM - hope the gig went well buddy.  Nothing better than playing music live with some mates.  I've only done it a couple of times in my life, but I loved it.
