Nanowrimo update (Jocelyn)

WE FINALLY FINISHED OUR WORD GOAL!!! It's great since I've been really busy this week (no I don't watch agents of S.H.I.E.L.D or Dr. Who) with work and stuff (lucky Coral got the week off to do nothing and watch tv shows...) and I actually don't really know what else to say so I'll just end this off here. God bless.

Hey readers out there

We're so sorry about not blogging in such a long time (yes Coral already mentioned this in the last blog but I wanted to say something too). Our shared email didn't like us being so far apart (more like it didn't like us in different countries) so we just had to fix it up a bit. I'd like to point out that when Coral says "grate" she most often means "great" and we are about half way done our book for nanowrimo. That's all for now :)

Friends (Jocelyn)

This is what happened tonight. I was with my friends and they can be very mischievous up to a point where I get frustrated. You can just ignore this post if you want because it's more of just random stuff that happens to me.

So I was wearing my friend T’s sweater (T took mine first) and then S and I went downstairs to go check something using the wifi. When I came upstairs I was wondering where my sweater was. So I said to T: "where is my sweater?" I had trusted T with my sweater but I wasn't quite sure whether T would do anything to it or not.

T's response was: "J went home with it." I do not trust J with anything. In my head I was kind of panicking slightly but maybe I'd get my sweater back tomorrow if I was lucky.

At first, I didn't believe T so I unzipped T's jacket. I was almost expecting to see my sweater there but T was, unfortunately, telling the truth. J had my sweater. I don't know how but T somehow got a hold of my mittens and went outside with them. Of course T came around the other side and as I opened the door, I saw J. I was like: O.O and then J started going around to the other side of the church (did I mention that we were at a church in the rotunda?) and so I went outside (without a jacket - yeah I'm smart like that because it was cold enough to snow today) and saw J. I was like to J: "where is my sweater???"
J was like: "T has it." Or some random junk like that and I was starting to panic, looking all around. I even went into both bathrooms that were there. My sweater wasn't there. Finally I got fed up and decided it was time to get my sweater back. So I pretended to be frustrated and I went and curled up in a corner and pretended to sulk (yay for acting). They believed me so I kept up the act and finally my sweater was returned. Then someone told me that my parents were here and then I had to go out. That all happened tonight. Such great friends I have…Oh yeah btw I’m still wearing T’s sweater right now :P

Lockdown! (Jocelyn)

Well, today was an uneventful day except for the lockdown we had this morning that lasted for over an hour.
Here is a snippet of what I wrote while it happened. Anything in brackets is just my opinion of it now and I may have changed up a few details so it makes more sense:

"Nov 6, 2014 10:14 am
We are currently in hold and secure mode. It started over half an hour ago last period (which was first period). My classmates are restless and many of them have started talking. People are not taking this as seriously as it should be taken. Many of them are using their phones even though there was an announcement that told us that it was not a drill and not to use our cell phones. I tried working on a project but found that I am unable to continue (sorry for the formal writing: I was writing something for history and I was supposed to talk more formally than normal so my mind was on formal mode for writing). It is uncomfortable here sitting on the cold, hard floor. The people that were working on the roof stopped long ago but just now I heard footsteps...There is talk about someone being injured but I do not recognize their name. We wait...

* * *

10:29 am

My classmates continue to be loud and rowdy. The teacher only tells them to be quiet when they are almost shouting. S and R are playing some sort of game with a piece of paper but I don't feel like checking it out. I wonder if K is alright. C went to go check on her. K is fine. C just came back with that news (nobody left the room. All that happened was the teacher opened a door that leads to a cupboard thing with a light and K went to sit in peace because K wasn't feeling well. I wonder how everyone else is doing...I hope they're all okay."

The hold and secure ended at 10:42 after over an hour of waiting. Nobody has died and there is no further alarm. Jocelyn out :)

Jocelyn's post 1

Hey readers out there! I don't really know what to put but Coral told me that I should probably have a few posts of my own (after chastising me on editing without telling her). She said that I should put my thoughts and updates on here but...I don't really know what to say. I'm more just the background person with the editing and I'm not really that outspoken. I don't even like talking much to people unless I know them very well. I'll probably end up rambling like I am now...um...well I guess I'll end this here. I'll try to update when I can (probably when I can think of things to say). Later :)
