Aloha! (BEDA Day 1)

I'm writing to you from a hotel lobby in Orlando, FL. I'm in a bit of a bad mood right now. It's way too hot to sit outside, and I can't be in my hotel room because it has yet to be cleaned. Normally this would not be a problem, but it is currently 3:42 pm, and they are typically done with our room by noon. Sigh.

People have been looking at me strangely as they pass by. What? I'm just writing. In another part of the lobby, someone is SLEEPING. And no one's staring at him.

By the way, this is my first post for Blog Every Day in August.* I'm really excited for BEDA, especially because I believe that the lovely Hayley G Hoover is participating as well. I hope that I do well at this. Although I've completed (and won) both NaNoWriMo and Script Frenzy, I never got the whole, "write something every day for a month" thing down. If I do this, I think that I'll do better in those next time, too.

A lady just walked past me holding (and muttering into) a Flip camera. I think she was vlogging. Awesome.

My writing has gotten worse the farther down the page I go. My handwriting, that is. You won't be able to see that once I post this, but I just thought you should know.

I've taken a fair amount of footage and pictures of Universal. And... I am thinking about doing an interactive video with them. It'll be a series of videos where you can choose what section of the park that you want to go to, and possibly what you want to see. That might be pretty complicated. But whatever.**

So, I should probably explain the title of this post. The hotel that I'm staying at has this Hawaii/tropical theme. And every time you approach someone who works here, they greet you by saying, "Aloha!" It was funny and cute the first couple of times, but now it's just too much.

I rode the elevators a lot today. I've always found standing in an elevator with people to be an awkward experience. It's not too bad if no one says anything. But as soon as someone tries to talk to you, it just gets really bad.

This will probably be the end of the post. I'm not sure what else to say right now, and I also want to get back to my room. I hope that they're finished by now. Well, here's to a great journey through the month of August! *raises glass of butterbeer* Yeah, be jealous that I have butterbeer.
