12 days and counting

Bleh! Well, starting off with the topic I introduced in my first entry, I just got out of my Creative Writing class. I almost doubled the size of my story for this week, but it didn't go over quite as well as I hoped it would. I guess I'm just a little bummed. I so very rarely actually get any constructive criticism (or any criticism of any kind) that I guess I'm just not used to dealing with it. The professor wants me to lengthen out my timeline to make it more realistic, which I totally understand now. and a classmate suggested adding some more major events to mark her (my main character) progress in gaining her new, stable identity after a major life event. I think those are both really good ideas, but I just know I won't be able to do them justice before the end of the semester and I was really hoping to get this done in time. Oh well, I guess I'll just do the working version for class then spruce it up over the summer when I actually have time.

I actually read a book yesterday!! I stayed up until 3 a.m. with an 8a.m. class this morning so I've been paying for it all day. But it still made me so happy to actually have read a book! though i have to wonder if my sleeplessness is adding to the bummed feeling from class. I don't think I can work on my story tonight. I have to study for a quiz tomorrow in Spanish. She introduced three new forms for this test so studying is a must. even if I am tired. >.< Wish me luck!

Have Fun!
