I'm extremely excited for this to begin at midnight, and I was just wondering how everyone else is feeling about this.
And as an added bonus, today I learned that proboards.com is not blocked from school, so I can log on here during lunch. ^^
Are you planning on staying up to begin writing? Any special plans for tonight?

I have several 6-10 page papers to write before I begin, so I seriously doubt I'll be starting tonight. I really wish I could though.

I'm planning on starting at midnight. I should get home from class around 10:30 and then I have to edit this paper due tomorrow which should keep me busy till midnight, and then I'll probably write for a half hour or an hour before bed. I wish I could stay up later, but I have to get up at 7:30 tomorrow.

Yeah, I know how it is with having to get up in the morning. I really shouldn't be staying up, since I have to get up at six tomorrow, but I'm going to anyway, just so I can get at least a few words done.
Before midnight, I'll have plenty to keep me occupied, anyway. I have to sing for Adoration and for a Mass until probably nineish, and then I have to study (learn?) psychology for an exam tomorrow. That should keep me going until midnight.

I'm really excited! I plan on staying up to start tonight, but I have school tomorrow so I don't know if that will actually happen. I'll probably just study for my chemistry exam until midnight and then start.

I'm really excited to begin writing. Was actually tempted to start it earlier this month and come up with a new plot for GothNo, but I'm glad I decided against it. I've managed to convince my parents to actually let me stay up past midnight on a school night (to 1:30am), so I'll be able to start as soon as the clock ticks over into October. Three hours and five minutes to go here. ^-^

You all have my envy. I'd love to stay up and start my gothic novella at the oh-so-fitting hour of midnight, but alas, I have three hours of marching band practice to look forward to this evening so there's no way I'll have enough energy left afterward to stay up that late. I'm gonna type first thing tomorrow when I get home from school though! And maybe even try to squeeze in a few hundred words first thing in the morning.

I now have my mom yelling at me. "I don't care how old you are! You have to get up early tomorrow!"
*shakes fist in her general direction* Just watch me, woman.

Haha, jackytorrance, I know what you mean about band. I am in pep band (my school has no official marching band - just pep band, but it's HUGE), and we have to go to a big football game on Friday...and there's a chance it will rain. Last year, it literally rained during all but two football games RIGHT DURING PREGAME when we had to play. I swear, my flute is a zombie now for going through that. But I'm so excited for GothNo - except I shouldn't stay up. Heck, I probably shouldn't even start writing yet, since I have a REALLY hectic first four days of the month (the football game listed above is one of the many), so I should probably focus on my studies...like trying to reteach myself physics before Saturday, when I have the stupid SAT subject test. BUT AFTER THE TEST IS OVER (and my saxophone lesson...grrr...) THEN I SHALL WRITE ALL DAY...AND SLEEP...ALL DAY LONG! >

It's almost midnight here on the west coast. I've been sick the last couple of days and didn't sleep well, and I had to work, but I still plan on starting in 41 minutes.

My headstart only got me about 300 words. *lame* Ah well. Who needs to study for an exam? NOT ME. Pshaw. That's who.

*Has written next to nothing*
I wish I could stay up late and write. But, alas, I had to get up at five so I could go to counselling for PTSD treatment (yes, I'm one of THOSE people). But hey, it's a Wednesday so now I have a whole two hours to write before my next class!
