My character has started her twitter. She really not in to the whole social media business. But she in love and what's to be able tell all her friends at the same time. She doesn't put many updates because she doesn't own a computer and usually does this at her public library. Creating this character in real time has been hard. I know she not the social media type so it's hard to "make" her that type. As I'm going along I'm still trying to figure out how to stretch this story out. It's kind of like I have to slowly evolve into this character to make this seem real. Hopefully, I'll be able to do that.
So far, I'm doing OK. I believe that I have to up my game and do more for my project. I'm excited for the ending outcome. I know that I will doing a video blog tonight and adding a few more things like songs and pictures to the blog for my characters. I hope it all turns out very well.
Well things have gone a tad awry. My character has deviated a bit from the scheduled plot line. I would like to say that this is me attempting to add authenticity to my her- "she needs to get acquainted with the website before she starts making such personal revelations"- but in truth it is because I forgot that this was just a character in a story. I enjoy the gal, now I need to start telling her predetermined tale. On the bright side of this accident, I think I can comfortably say my character is a great deal more "fleshed out" than she might otherwise have been and we are able to see more her relationship Merriweather a.k.a. the "Anonymous Asshole." All in all, I am enjoying it immensely.
I have used the reality of cursing and other tools to show my main character. He is still in the beginning stages of the story telling it through tumblr which I might add is very confusing to work. Making blog posts are easy but doing it at the right time is important, that could mean staying up until 3am to write a post on a week day to make the realistic perspective obvious.
Well, here in this post is supposed to be a reflection, so here it goes...
Currently, I am in the process of creating a Blog for my character. i am still unsure of what i am going to call it, something schnazy I hope. It should be "alive" by the beginning of school tomorrow, if not it will be by the end of the day.
I also must add, I am horrible at keeping deadlines :( and I am sure I am going to pay the consequences in the long run.
So far I have made a tumblr for one of my main characters. She hasn't made many posts because of her limited internet access. I am working on incorporating her tumblr into the story and making one for the other character.
Graduation's winding closer and senioritis is kicking in, but not the lazy kind. The kind of senioritis when you realize how little time you have with the people you love before your entire life changes, you see your family less and you barely see your friends at all. The kind when you understand that your time to fix things is limited, your days to apologize for mistakes is numbered and you spend more of your time trying to get your life in order than you do on your school work. Instead of writing papers you wait for your free period the next day and you spend that night with your baby sister and your mom. Instead of working on your math homework you go out with your friends that you'll live hours away from in a few short months. As graduation comes closer I become more afraid and I let that fear alter the type of student that I have been all these years. I'm not saying this is okay, I'm just making sure it's known that I have a reason even if it doesn't seem like a very good one because the people I love come before anything and I've never been very good with change.
