Upcoming blog tour thing, florida, and stuff

Hi, yes, I'm on vacation. It's great! I've got loads of time to write, and write I have- like mad!

So, quick update yeah?

I'm going to be participating in an upcoming blog tour to help promote other indie authors. Should be fun, yeah? YEAH! That'll be when I'm done my vacation. Anyhoo, I've published Dark One's preview on Amazon and people seem to like it so far, which is great news for me because when I publish the whole book people will want to buy it! Yay! Besides from that, I really haven't had anything noteworthy happen. Meh. This blogging thing only works when you have interesting things to talk about!

And stuff.

I have not disappeared

So, I've been very busy with...life, I suppose. I'm still writing my books and Dark One is almost complete! I'd say....an other month or two and it'll be done. In theory.

So, life updates:

1. You know that relationship I said I was in? It totally got weird and we broke up. BUT that's okay, because I am back with Liam after an eight month break (we got back together in October). We both worked on our issues, and we don't fight any more- and there is no more crying and unhappiness because we are both at peace with our respective inner selves. I really do love him, and he does love me. We just couldn't throw almost four and a half years away.

2. I GOT MY HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA IN NOVEMBER!!!

3. I've been accepted into John Abbott College, and I start August 25th in the literature program. I am thrilled!

Help give my friend Hope...hope.

Hi everybody. If you could take some time out of your busy schedule to please, please, help my good friend, I would greatly appreciate it. You don't have to give money if you can't, but please pass this around, so more people can see it and help her. 

Here is Hope's story, as written by her. 




"Hello,

My name is Hope Adler, I'm currently only 18 years old and living on my own. 
My family doesn't support me anymore and I live 300 miles away from them. I need help due to not being able to work or go to school full time due to medical problems. 
I'm considered disabled and handicapped even though I do not look like it. I have something called an ileostomy. I was sick for about almost 10 years before I had my entire colon removed due to Ulcerative Colitis, I failed medication at one point receiving 21,000 dollars worth of meds a month. 
I'm "healthier" but at the same time my surgery which was on January 21, 2013 this year had some major serious complications due to the laprascopic tools misfiring during the surgery. One of the staple guns malfunctioned during it and caused a hole in my intestines. Which resulted in my bowel contents leaking into my abdomen and causing me to have the series of complications:
20+ litres of infection trapped in my abdomen that had to be drained through 3 drains at one point(two abdo drains, one chest tube)
Both lungs collasping, not eating for a total of three months, being in hospital for 60 days, nearly dying, septic shock, various blood infections, another surgery in March, 10 types of anti biotics, a port put in, rejection of blood transfusions, oral aversion, losing a total of 75 pounds, and my abdomenal wall muscle caving in causing me to not be able to lift anything anymore.
Plus probably even more things I'm forgetting.
On top of that my mental health has always been bad but has gotten worse. I have OCD, ADD, PTSD, Chronic depression, suicidal ideation and history of self harm.
As well as medical problems, I have not had an easy life in general. I am a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, sexual assault emotional abuse from my family bullying. As well as being a teen mom of a gorgeous two year old that I take care of myself with minimal help from her father.
I've tried killing myself numerous times because of all of this, and on top of that my family has cut off most of their ties to me because I didn't go to high school because of being sick. 
Now I'm in a city that I'm really new to I have not many friends here. My boyfriend whose in university and working cannot magically move in with me and make things better. 
I'm trying so hard for the last two months to find a job but due to being sick I cannot get hired. As well I still need two more surgeries and other medical problems taken care of. 
If you could help me get my minimal goal of 800 that would be fantastic. I need at least in total 2000 but I would take any amount at this point. 
Please anything would help.


Thank you for reading my story."

Happy birthday Wattpad!

It's Wattpad's 7th birthday! I am happy to say that I have been a member since November 18th 2009, that's four out of its seven years!!

To celebrate, here's a video about why Wattpad is so important to me.

GiftHulk- what is it and why should you invest your time?

GiftHulk is a popular points reward site that I have recently discovered, and let me just tell you: it is awesome! It's kind of like Swagbucks in its layout, but is somewhat different. GiftHulk offers many earning opportunities, and I'll list some of them and explain a bit about each thing. I think the great part about GiftHulk is that it doesn't take much effort to earn points, you just have to be honest when answering surveys, and have to actually want to earn the points.

Fountain of Youth: Like Swagbucks' swag codes, GiftHulk has a section where you can redeem codes as well, found around the site/its facebook/twitter that can get you free Hulk Coins! I got 250 today and I don't know about you, but that's awesome! So far, I have 859 Hulk Coins, and I'm working towards getting a paypal gift card!

Apps: There are a variety of applications you can install on your phone or ipad, and that'll win you easy Hulk Coins.

Surveys: You can get lots of points just by answering surveys! You won't always qualify, but usually you will be rewarded for your effort, which is great.

Videos: You can watch videos for points! If you watch a certain amount a videos, you get 5 Hulk Coins. I think that's pretty fair, don't you? It's really cool.

So, there we have it. I think everybody should give this site a try, it's one-hundred percent free, and you can connect to it via Facebook or Twitter.

If you want to join and start earning, here's my invite link. My username is sydenie_beaupre: http://www.gifthulk.com/invite/SB275250

A dude to check out, and other stuff.

So, I was browsing on Wattpad and came across this guy. His pen name is Parogar, and here is a link to his profile: http://www.wattpad.com/user/Parogar

You're probably wondering why I'm randomly telling you about some guy I don't even know. Well, the thing is, I really like his stories, and I just like the way he presents himself. *over the internet lol* He is witty, unafraid of being judged, and is for some pretty good causes. He just left a good impression on me for some reason. Anyway, his works are awesome, and you should really check them out.

***

In other news, I made a new site for my writing and stuff: http://sydenayrox.wix.com/sydniebeaupre so you should, you know, maybe check that out too. ANYHOO, happy back to school for all you students out there, and everybody else- have a good life!

Update on my life and such

So I did a thing. I chopped off my hair to donate it to cancer patients so that they could have wigs made for them. My friend Sam- who's now living with me by the way and I'll get to that later- did the same thing. The only difference is, I was growing my hair out for that exact purpose! And guess what? I'm doing it again! I'll keep the short hair for a wee bit, but yup, I'm growing it out again to donate it.

As somebody who is both anaemic and has a lack of white blood cells, I cannot give blood which has made me very upset in the past. BUT, I realized that the next best thing to donating blood was....HAIR! I can donate my hair! Hey, donating blood doesn't change your appearance- unless you're like me and you pass out and get all pale and stuff- and donating your hair totally does, but hair grows back, and I like having short hair anyway. So, at the age of fifteen, after having gotten a terrible hair cut and throwing a small fit, I came to that realization- the one that said "Oh my God, you'll be fine, hair grows back" (I was practically given a mullet)- and I decided that I would grow my hair out for a good cause. Cancer is as good a cause as any, am I right? And finally, five years (and many annoying haircuts forced on me by my mother to keep my hair 'looking healthy' and experimental hair dyes) later I have reached my goal! My hair was past my breasts, about two or three inches I'd say, and I was actually planning on growing it out down to my bum because I thought my hair wasn't long enough. I was wrong!!! The minimum is eight inches, and uhh...well my hair was very long, let's put it that way.

I'm happy as heck, and am proud of myself. So...there's that!



So, about Sam. Wellp, she's here to stay! She is the best person to have around the house ever- well to have around in general, really. We get along so well! We're both looking for jobs and are hoping to move out together and maybe even buy a small pig or a kitten as a pet. We're cool!
