"Don't have sex because you will get pregnant. And die."
So, it's the eve of NaNoWriMo and I'm watching Mean Girls and eating kettle corn to really get into that writing mood.
Also, I am drinking orange juice.
I've got about an hour and fifteen before I can officially start writing it because of my time zone and I've got two distinct part of my book and I've got the first chapter of the second part all mapped out. Sure, I know what's going to happen in all of it, but...
Anyway, it's almost NaNoWriMo. To anyone participating: happy writing. To everyone else: hope you had a good Halloween.

Teen Witch
So, Teen Witch is a 1989 fantasy movie (according to ABC Family) that comes on ABC Family every Halloween as part of their 13 Nights Of Halloween.
Teen Witch is also pretty much the greatest movie ever. Though it came out in 1989, much like movies that came out in the super early 90s, it is quintessentially 80s. And even though my best friend insists that I am pretty much the gayest person ever for liking this movie so intensely I say, "Not true!" This movie is simply awesome.
Summary/Spoilers: There's this chick named Louise. She has a best friend named Polly. They live in a world where people believe shoulders are simply too small and must be altered with shoulder pads. It's kind of like how a lot of chicks wear padded bras when they think they're boobs should be none-surgically bigger, except the shoulder pad thing is for guys and girls. People also tease their hair in many different fashions, wear large scrunchies, and listen to music heavy with hooks and power chords.
Now, Louise and Polly, despite living in this awesome world of shoulder pads and power chords and adhering to the dress code of the times, are total losers. They are the things upon which bottomfeeders feed. However, after a night on a date with a total creep, Louise stumbles upon this psychic's shop and finds out that she's a witch--for real real. And then she's all, "Oh my god! This is *so* great!" She takes Polly to this great concert and she ends up getting this rock goddess' jean jacket and she uses said jacket in a spell to make her the most popular girl in school.
It totally works too, because the next day, when she walks outside a walk track is playing for her. A walk track, people. And then she ditches Polly, who she used to ride bikes with every day to school, and rides with these cool kids in their awesome car instead. [And then there are some interesting things involving theatre and there's this one scene where Polly raps against these three cool eighties dudes, but all that's not important part].
Louise is loving her new found popularity and everything is perfect. Then there's Brad. Just by the way she says his name you can tell she's head over heels in love with him. And he starts giving her the eye and then some Kenny G like music starts to play and she gets in his car and they go to this under construction/abandoned house and he kisses her.
And she's so happy and everything's great...And then she goes back to the psychic to ask if the kiss was real. But she's unhelpful at first, asking her what's the difference if he only likes her because of the spell. However, she changes her mind and tells Louise how to reverse it, just in time for the dance.
Then it's the night of the dance. Brad is there with Randa--because Louise, afraid of his love/like for her being fake, told him to go with her. She breaks the spell. They lock eyes and...he still likes her, yay!
End of Summary/Spoilers
So, yeah. It's the best.
