It's been a long while...
It's been a long time since I last wrote something here and many things have changed. To start with, I'm not working anymore. My job was a temporary employment - it only lasted for six months, so I've been unemployed again since August. Hopefully, next year I'll have some more opportunities to get a new job, but for now, I'm not working.
I'm focused on many things right now. One of them is writing, but I'm afraid I'm not working on the fanfic for now. Last month, in November, I signed up for NaNoWriMo, a very well-known writing challenge, and I decided to finally start writing a novel I had been thinking of for the last months. I achieved the goal of 50000 words, but I'm not done with the novel yet, and I'm determined to finish it so I can try to find some way to publish it in the future.
After that, of course, I plan to finish the fanfic! I've written many more chapters than I've submitted, but I need to take some time to get back to the story and put an end to it. I'm sorry to make you wait, my friends, but you know how this works. All I can do is say that you'll have the chance to read the rest of the story. Promise!
And now, it's almost Christmas again! I'm afraid this time it won't be very happy for me, since my grandpa and my grandma passed this year, but we need to move on, so we'll try to have a nice time. And I hope you all do as well!
Hey there!
I wanted to tell you that I'm planning to get back to my fanfic these days. I'm late, I know, but I really couldn't find the time earlier. I've been way too busy preparing the lessons and teaching them, but luckily, things seem to be a little bit calm now. I'm having some free time in the mornings, so I'm getting everything ready in order to spend it working on my fanfic again.
I must confess I'm a little lost now
It's been such a long time since I last wrote something and I'm gonna need some time to get back to it. Hopefully I won't take too long, since I'd like to submit next chapter this month and get back to the story at last! 
Well, this is all I wanted to share with you today
(It's kinda weird one of my journals ends up being this short 
)Hope you're all doing fine, dear friends!
Working a lot!
Hello everybody!
Yes, I know I’m missing. I’m so sorry! D: I’m going to explain everything that’s been going on in my life during these last months, so beware – this is going to be a long entry!
First of all, no, I haven’t abandoned my fanfic. I keep on thinking of it, though I’m afraid I can’t write at the moment Not because I’m sick or something like that, but because my whole day is booked now. Allow me to explain.
I found a job! That’s good news, indeed, since my family is in such great need. I’ve been working since the sixth of February and I just collected my first wage, which is amazing, so everything’s perfect concerning this! 
The problem is my job requires me to teach English to a classroom full of people. And I’m not used to doing that Yes, I’ve been a teacher, but I’ve always worked with only one student at a time. This is gonna be the first time I have to take care of more than one person at the same time. And I’m a little concerned
The thing is, I have to spend seven hours and a half at work every day. And I have to spend them preparing everything I’m going to teach my students, making a list of the people who want to attend my lessons, making sure everything’s fine... And whenever I can find the time, some of my workmates may need some help, so there I go. Or perhaps one of my three bosses requires me. So I never have any time left
Fortunately, my workmates are amazing. We’re all the same age, more or less, so we get on very well. There’s another girl who has to teach French, another one who works with little kids, an administrative assistant, a career counselor... and yep, right now we’re all girls. There were a few men when I began – my partner was a boy – but things here work a little weird... 
See, every six months, when a new person comes in, another one has to leave. Before I arrived, there was a boy teaching English, and I knew him because we were friends back in college, so it was cool to see him again after so many years We’ve been working together for a couple of weeks, but then he had to leave so I could replace him. It’s something the government in our country is doing to help young people to get some experience working, since there are so many young boys and girls who are unemployed despite having studied a lot.
The same goes for the girl who works as an administrative assistant, and for the career counselor, and for the one who’s teaching French as well. We’re all going to be here for six months, and then someone else will come to replace us just like we’ve just replaced our partners. It’s a good way to earn some money and experience, and the work environment is amazing. I know I’m very lucky to have this job
So I won’t complain even though I don’t really like teaching Everything else’s good and positive, so I’ll just focus on it
So yeah! This is what I’m doing right now. Busy enough This is why I can’t really find the time to write at the moment, and also to visit you guys here and chat with you. I miss it, I really do, but for now, I’m afraid I have to be focused on my job
According to my partner – the one who was teaching English before I arrived – once you manage to get everything ready for the English lessons, you can use your time at work to do some stuff on your own. So I’m just working hard to finish the lessons, so I only have to teach them, and then I hope I can invest some of my time at work to do some other stuff I must do
Hopefully one of them will be the fanfic! I know I owe you a chapter, my friends. I thank you for your patience and apologize for making you wait for so long. I’m afraid I’ll have to wait for, at least, a couple of weeks more before I can start having some free time.
But this isn’t over! I don’t know when, but Mario, Luigi, Peach and Daisy will soon be back so we can all find out what happens next In case you’d like to re-read the chapters that are available so far, or in case you missed some of them, just click here and enjoy the reading!
I’m going back to Madrid this weekend, by the way. Yes, I love that city. Yes, I’d LOVE to live there, but I’m afraid it’s Spain’s capital city, which means life there is way too expensive. But perhaps some day... 
And yes, I’m going to spend half of my first wage on this trip. I’ll have nothing left for the rest of the month!
(But it’ll be worth it, since I’m going to see the Harry Potter Exposition that can be seen right now in Madrid and The Lion King Musical 
I just can’t wait! 
)
This is all for today, my dear friends! How are you all doing? I hope everything’s just wonderful! 
Long story short
It's really been a long time since I last visited DA I've almost forgotten how to write in English As the title says, I'm going to try and make the long story short: since August I've been having problems with my laptop and it's still not working properly - I swear I'm desperate, I don't know what else I could do to fix it
The thing is, I've spent around a month or two without any kind of PC at home, and even though I have a tablet, it's not even half as easy to use as a computer. This is why I've barely been around or answered any of your comments. But there's more!
I'm currently studying a course for unemployed people at it lasts until November 10th, which means I'm still going to be very busy in real life, for this course has a school-like timetable and I have to study, write essays and such. It's almost a new thing for me, considering the last time I went to a school or university was in 2014 But I'm trying my best to pass all the tests and get a good mark.And what's the point on studying this course? Well, as I've already mentioned many times, I'm currently unemployed. The situation at home is being very harsh - that's why I really don't know what else I could do to fix my laptop
We barely have any money to live, let alone to buy a new computer! Both my mom and I are trying to get a job, but Spain is not the best country in the world to find a job at the moment (especially with the situation in Catalonia), so we're not being lucky at all. My mom, my dad, my three dogs and I are living out of ony my dad's salary. Which is not very high, actually.So I bet you can see why I'm studying this course
It's meant for helping young, unemployed people to get new chances of getting a job. Actually, during the last week, we'll be in touch with an important enterprise that will hire three of us, so I just hope I'll be one of them! I really need to get a new job, and I think I could be one of the best candidates. At least, I will try my best whenever I'm intervewed, so wish me luck, dear friends! On the other hand, I haven't forgotten about my fanfic. But, you know, since I've had no laptop and I'm very busy at the moment, I haven't written a word since August 29th
My plan was to finish it before October came, but I'm afraid it didn't happen 
I just hope I can get back to it once the course is over, for I suposse I'll have some more free time. Or perhaps I won't, if I'm hired The thing is, I don't think I'm going to share any new chapter until I'm done with the course. I'm very sorry, but I want to have some time to spend on it, because it needs revision and I really wish to continue writing it. I just hope you will understand, but I'd like to offer you the best of my writing skills that I can.
So that would be it for today
I just felt like I owed you all an explanation, for I'm always leaving and coming back, leaving and coming back, and so on What about you, guys? How are you all doing? By the way, I haven't forgotten - I know Super Mario Odyssey has just been released today
I'm very happy to know many of you will be able to play it, but considering my whole situation, I'm afraid I won't be able to even get a Nintendo Switch I don't know its price in other places, but in Spain it costs more than 300€ and I really can't afford to spend such a huge amount of money on a console. Heck, I don't even have 100€ At least I could get the Superstar Saga remake when it was released (I had been saving money since the summer
), though I haven't had much time to play it. So far I've loved it, because it's exactly the same as the original one, but a little bit improved and with better graphics. It's absolutely perfect Hopefully I'll be able to spend some time around tomorrow! My intention is to answer your comments and notes, for I think I've kept you waiting long enough now
I really am sorry, but I think of you guys every day 
See ya!
Life update
Guys, I finally won't be able to submit the next Revenge chapter on Monday 14th! D: I'm so sorry! I probably won't have a laptop then, since mine is broken and I have to buy a new one and it's probably going to take some time...
I still have my old, broken laptop, though, so I've decided I'll submit the next chapter tomorrow!
Let's make this clear - it's already August 9th for me, but I haven't gone to bed yet, so it's like it's still Tuesday for me This means during Wednesday I'll submit chapter four of Revenge, so you'll be able to find it available in less than 24 hours! Therefore, the memes I had the intention to answer this week will be delayed! I'll try and submit them next week, though I don't know how I'll do it
Anyways, this is all I wanted to say today! Good night for now, dear buddies!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello everyone!
How are you? Hope you're all doing fine! As for myself, I'm afraid I have bad news. I'm currently going through a hard familiar situation, which means I cannot be as active as I used to or as I would like to. I know I have tons of comments waiting for an answer and I apologize for making you wait for such a long time. I'm really sorry!
Concerning my fanfic, this Friday it's August 4th, which means there should be a new chapter, for it's a date that ends in 4th (and I decided to submit a chapter every date that ended in 4th). But I'm afraid this time it's not going to be possible
It's my boyfriend's birthday and I'll probably be away the whole weekend, since we're going to celebrate with our family and friends.Nevertheless, I'd like to make it up for you. Next week I'm going to try and submit a different journal entry, maybe with a meme or two, for there are many I've seen lately that I'd like to answer myself. Besides, I've recently been tagged to another meme, so I'll try and bring that journal entry next week
And then, on August 14th, there will be a new chapter of Revenge!
I really hope you're enjoying this fanfic I've been writing a little this week and I've reached chapter 32! 
This means you'll have enough of it for a long time! See you next week, my dear friends! Love you all!
