Firstly, I want to take a moment to address 9/11 and the devastation that reaped ten years ago. It seems like just yesterday that I was asking my teacher why everyone was being pulled out of school, and I clearly remember the expression she gave me, somewhere between sadness and frustration at not being able to tell us what was going on. To all ( Read more... )

So it came to me last night (after reading a Tumblr comic) that I do in fact think about impossible, unrealistic situations as I go to sleep at night. My nightly preparations often include opening up Pandora (I'm so happy about the hour limit thing they have) and turning on my So Close by Jon McLaughlin station. Then I'll listen to that as I go ( Read more... )

 That's right, only a few hours before the deadline and I am just now completing my story.  I'm extremely grateful to my beta for being able to do this rush job for me, and I shall have to give her extra cookies for it.  What a chore.  It's a good thing she loves me so.  If she read this, yes, I know you love me.  You can't live without me.  And ( Read more... )

 I will not procrastinate on an assignment and actually try and complete it ages before the deadline--or at least before the day before the deadline as is my way.  Okay, well, I'm crossing my fingers that won't happen.  I can't make any guarantees though since I'm of the lazy sort.  But I'm on the right track since I have an idea of what I'm doing ( Read more... )

Birds are chirping as I sit inside in a large auditorium, my pencil scratching away at the thick packet that was no doubt once an entire young tree.  I'm almost at the end, writing down my final equation and solving the last problem.  I close the packet triumphantly, wish my professor a happy summer, and twirl out the room, humming to myself before ( Read more... )

 So if you haven't been hanging around FIA or FFN, you wouldn't have noticed the fact that I am indeed posting a new story.  I think everyone spoiled me with the plethora of reviews for Buttercup, and now I am doomed to feel a mite bit disappointed in the lack of reviews.  That being said, I'm very much a person who doesn't think too much of it, ( Read more... )

I am obsessed in love with shoes.  I think I bite into the stereotypes of girls and their shoes, and independent girls everywhere are scowling and blaming me for their plight.  Men always say that women love their shoes and are all about their shoes.  For me, it's true.  But that just means that I'm another one of those girls who make it hard for ( Read more... )

 I've been busy, busy, busy--writing and doing school work.  Unfortunately, I haven't found a nice balance between the two yet.  I either write a ton and fall behind on school work, then end up rushing to do class work before my class starts.  Or, on the other hand, I do a ton of school work and mourn the fact that I didn't get a chance to write.   ( Read more... )
