NaNoWriMo AND a blog? What am I thinking?

I must be insane.
I'm now participating in NaNoWriMo, which stands for National Novel Writing Month, and I just created my first blog. Now I get to prep my brain and my story outline for NaNoWriMo, figure out Blogger, and live my normal life, complete with school, Bible study every Wednesday, church, two insane dogs, a cat in heat, and dealing with moving back to the US after eight and a half years in Africa.
Oh! Sorry! I'm Sam, more commonly known as The Short One. Twelve years old, MK (missionsry kid), bookworm, and not-yet-published author. This, is my blog. Boda Bodas, Books, and Bananas. For those who don't know, a boda boda is basically a motorcycle taxi here in Uganda. They tend to drive in flocks here in Arua, and they don't like slowing down or stopping for turns, pedestrians, or other vehicle traffic. They're all over the place, and drive me crazy.
But enough about bodas! I'm sure whoever takes the time to read this has better things to do.
-Sam

What even...?

Okay, so, my friend and I had a photoshoot, because we're weird like that, and she put two of the pictures up on Facebook, tagging my dad. What she didn't know is that that would mean tagging my mother as well. So, now my mother has seen the fruits of a long hot day outside in the African sun. Oh, well. Do you have any idea how much time and how many e-mails it takes to send over 200 pictures to your friend? I'm uploading more as I type. ........... Someone's running a weed whacker, and it's driving me crazy. Help. Is it weird that I have a wedding board on Pinterest even though I'm only 12? Eh, whatever. It will stay there no matter what people think. And an official thanks to my friend Joanna for giving a bunch of notebooks (I had like, three before. Never a good thing what with all my ideas for novels). I actually have one of them next to me right now. Who knew a pink hardcover composition book would be so wonderful? Okay, honestly, I feel like I'

Grander Earth Has Quaked Before

Hello again, o people who probably don't even read this because my life is boring as heck. I'm back with another scatterbrained pile of nonsense. We have a liveable house now. The flooring's done, the downstairs bedrooms are sheetrocked, the kitchen is finished, though so far lacking a dishwasher, and we have a cat. Now, of course, the big thing: public school. That's right, your girl Sam is no longer homeschooled. I now go to Buffalo Gap High School, and it's surprisingly great (It's still school). Uhhhh.... NaNoWriMo! It's coming up fast, and I am very unprepared. But I'll manage, one way or another. Prepare for unusual deepness from me. It's been over a year since the move. Over a year since I said goodbye to my dogs, to my home, to a way of life, got on the plane, and flew to America. Over the past year, the Lord has shown me that He will put me right where he wants me, even if I can't tell that I'm where I need to be. It'
