Day 5 Wind and Waves

Well, I did it. I moved onto a sailboat today and am going to be spending the rest of the month of November on it. The winds were about 10 knots and of course the currents pushed the boat away from the dock creating a 1 foot (30cm) gap from the boat and the finger dock. So you had to be careful getting on and leaving making sure you or you're belongings won't end up in the drink. I also messed up earlier in the day and accidentally broke the space heater so I had to pay to replace it; bound to happen since it was my first time on the sailboat. I just need to get use to having no water pressure, no hot water (unless i boil it on the propane stove) and no shower. So thinking about it i am probably going to wake up earlier so I can come back home and get ready before heading off to college. I do have a midterm tomorrow too, so we will see how living on board will help my studies.
As for my assignments and novel, i got some progress just i was tired yesterday and without internet so i was extremely limited. I have sketch paper on the boat, college books and of course lots of novels i would like to read during the time i am on board.
I shall do an update of my word count tomorrow.

Day 4 Overwhelmed

I never thought I would be posting this, but I am seriously overwhelmed! I have a college midterm (second one) on Monday, I am writing (or at least trying to) for NaNoWriMo, getting my application and portfolio done for UBC and getting ready to move aboard a boat tomorrow. I feel so tired and i have so many things to do. Tomorrow I am planning to finish or almost finish my re-cycled nautical chandelier, move aboard and write like a madman until i hit the 15,000 word make. Not to mention study too like a madman for that upcoming exam. I also have three CADD drawings I need to start from scratch and finish this month, sketches and a few models. I wish in a way i could clone myself three times and get all this done a lot sooner.
It bothers me that my mind has gone blank with my non-fiction novel. Since each and everyday counts towards achieving the 50k (in my case 100k) word goal. I really really want to write (kinda why I am able to post here) and get it done but, yeah, i'm lost where to go.


World Goal for today: 13,600
Amount Written: 0
Total Words: 1468
Goal: 100,000

Actually now when i look at it, 15k isn't enough. I need a MINIMUM of 17k to get back on track. *roll eyes*
