Hurrah.

Well, several things crossed off my list last week.

First - finally did something that I have needed to do for a while. I participated in something. It sounds silly, but I'm always thinking of ideas and diving headfirst into them. I realize, usually halfway into one of my 'projects', that I'm not really as interested and dedicated as I thought I was - like in early summer when you want to swim and enjoy summer so bad, but school still have a few more weeks, and there's homework to be done, and the pool water's not quite warm enough yet anyway, so you quite trying to encourage summer and just wait. Everything is like that for me.
But the One Day Without Shoes event really paid off. I feel good about myself. I wish I could have gone the entire day - driving, testing, etc, but I didn't think my parental units would quite go for that....

Two - speaking of testing, I took the accuplacer on thursday and then the act on saturday. the accuplacer is easy and the act is impossible.

Three - today all i've been thinking about is reading. Books, books, books. So i am starting my to read list. I've been down to the nub for a while now, and it's time to start again....

ETA

I've been doing a lot of scene scheming in my head lately. I wrote for an hour and a half last night. Sometimes, I have a good idea of where I'm going. Sometimes, I just want an emotion to come across. Sometimes, I just want to explore secret room.
But it only comes in little bits. I think maybe that if I could possibly link all my little ideas together, especially my 'underground' idea that I keep tinkering with, that maybe I could finally have 80% of a novel written.
That won't happen. And even if I probably won't ever write a book, I will still keep writing. If I do write a book, it will be a sort of a memoir for myself.

Six total people have found their way into taking thrusday's challenge. As I walked around today, I tried to watch out where I was putting my feet. I'll be doing much more of that on thursday. The second I get careless, it'll be something gross. I'm going to bring a pair of shoes just in case, but I am challenging myself to keep them off until I get home. I'm making my time every second I am out of out property lines. I go around barefoot so much, it doesn't count really for me to do the thing at home. For your information, I'm barefoot now.

We're watching 'Gone With The Wind' in production, since we have nothing else to prepare for really, except night of one acts. That'll be easy, and not until the week before.

I think i'll sign off and continue writing.

I think I might go to prom with that guy :)

I think I might go to prom. Wow.
