It occurs to me that it’s October 9 and I haven’t started freaking out about NaNoWriMo yet. I really wonder why this is, because last year at this time I was piling up the notes and Post-Its trying to find something I wanted to write about.
I have an idea though, and I started to look into it last month. It involved a lot of research into how governments (not unlike China’s government) censor material on the Internet, and how they block certain websites that might contain sensitive material or are social networking sites (Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare, etc.) that might be used to start a social revolution. The rest of the research is highly technical and I don’t know if I’m prepared for that.
It’d be better if I had some friends who were well-versed in the art of hacking into networks, either remotely or otherwise. I don’t feel comfortable handwaving it at all; I feel that’s inauthentic and the sign of a lazy writer. Or of one who just doesn’t care.
To researching I go!
Lists
- Tomorrow I’ll have been in China for six months, officially. I’m not doing anything to celebrate because I’m working all day tomorrow and Sunday. Maybe I’ll buy some cake.
- Also, starting on Wednesday, I’ll be living with a dude. (A sloppy, lazy boy. Ugh. A million times ugh.) Other Teacher is returning to the States. Her contract is up. I get her room though, which is bigger and has a comfier bed.
- That is all. Thank you.

eff my life
I dislike my job immensely. Except the pay is A+++
The end.
P.S. I get too excited for the Universal Orlando Harry Potter commercials. I am 10.
