How is that even though I almost 21 years old, shark fruitsnacks are the most amazing substance ever?

This will be short and sweet considering I have to be up early and have way too much on my plate to accomplish the tasks set forth to me in the few days left of this week. School starts. A couple of us are going down to Nebraska. I work everyday. I have to somehow pack up my life onece more and move in BEFORE I leave for Nebraska but AFTER I work! Ahhh. What a rush it all is. Plus I mean I have less than a week of summer left. Who knew it'd fly by so fast. Oh crap, that reminds me, i have to sell my books. hmmm.... And go to the eye doctor. Maybe I shouldn't be spending time doing this? nah...

I don't have too much to say. My creative juices aren't really flowing, other than the fact that I absolutely love my title to this blog. haha. Oh yes, and if your reading Steve, HEY STEVE!!! Now you've officially been mentioned in my blog... assuming you still read it. Still can't believe you read this. haha. It makes me wonder how many people out there that I don't know are reading this. Who talks about it? Who thinks it's actually good? (haha... .I know... funny thought). Well, I don't write for people anyway. I mean it's all fine and dandy that people read this (It is online.... It's not like I can think this is personal information...) and if they don't, well... whatever.

I'm really excited to start up some journalism classes. With taking a semseter off and doing nothing directed towards my major what-so-ever last semester, I'm getting a little antsy. Will I like writing? Did I grow out of it? Will i have what it takes? or will I really wanna focus on my Creative Writing minor and go on with that? Oh the possibilities. Either way, I think it's a great oppurtunity to be dabbling in all atmospheres of writing. Then I can really find my niche. yay!

Well in other news, my book is near completion... of the first draft. lol. It's got a LOT of work ahead of it, but I think I can do it. I'm starting to get really excited for it be done and am really hurrying sections that I may or may not keep in the second rough draft. Oh man though, getting this close is a dream come true. I never thought it'd really happen. I mean this has been a work in progress since i was 16! That was almost FIVE YEARS AGO!!! Well guys just wish my luck though my last stages of this thing!!

Ok, I'm burnt out.... and this all probably doesn't make sense. But hey? when does it?

<3>

Why not?

I figure with a new reader and all, (hey ryan), I'd write a little post. VERY little though. It is late, and I do work in the morning. Sigh. But at least it's at 10:30 and not 6:30. I win

Have I mentioned summer is grand? All worries that I had earlier, well, they've floundered. They disapparated (right word?) well, at any rate, they've just disappeared. I've accepted change. I've accepted growing up, I've just learned to deal. My friends are still there, I'm still getting tan and wakeboarding and reading and writing etc. etc. It's just different. And that's okay. Plus, I've also noticed this small little thing in me that has decided that I REALLY REALLY wanna go back to school. HA! who knew that I had that in me? I know going to school has been a struggle to me (complete understatement) but I mean this desire is like I miiiiissssss the atmosphere. It's great. I do actually get to move in on the 31st which helps out a lot (i'm visiting miss Laura again for her birthday so it makes things not soo... complicated.)

AH! My friend is home!! Everyone say huzzah! Ah! I love having her home. I feel a peace within me, like the puzzle is back together. I think it's great that she was out doing youthworks stuff and I totally applaud her for it, but it is nice to have her back. I know, call me greedy. Really... but I like to keep my friends close to me. ESPECIALLY when they run off to Rome for Spring Semester! lol. Whatev... i'll write a book and go on tour.

So.... my new music and book obessions:
Imogen Heep (preferably Hide and Seek)
Tegan and Sara (their new CD in its entirety [sp?])
Colbie Calliat (most of the CD)
Shawn McDonald (Take my Hand + the rest of the CD)
BOOK: A Heartbreaking work of staggering genius (Dave Eggers- thanks ryan, it's amazing so far)
I'm just completely head over heels for all of them! I just need money to buy their CD's. Sigh... when will that happen? once all bills are paid off (haha) and I pay for my doctor check up and contacts and eye check up and oh yes.... paying for glasses! boo. Oh well. That's what happens when you lose them in Montana like 3 years ago.

Ok, bedtime! I've wasted enough time on really nothing important whatsoever. But people still read it and I will look back and read it, so I guess i've done my job.

Love <3>
