Haven't posted in a while. Don't have much to say, really. I have one more full week of classes before finals, and then freedom--well, freedom of a sort. I'm still trying to figure out my summer plans--working, and all that business, as I have to get ready to move into my off-campus apartment with my roomies come August. So that'll hopefully be fun!
The only interesting things I've done in the past week or so is throw caution to the wind and write a paper on BioShock. I was terrified when I handed it in, but we'll see how that goes, haha.
I'm in a bit of a weird mood at present--I want to write something, anything, but I seem to be permanently stuck in the plotting/scheming stage, and no matter how badly I'd like to move on and actually start writing...I can't.
It kind of sucks.
Maybe some new reading material and music can help; both have certainly helped me before. But I'm starting to think this is one of those cases where I need a change of scenery. Sitting in my dorm, all I can think about is all the things I ought to be doing, and not doing any of it because my laptop broke and my netbook can't handle much and the stupid computers in the lounges here on campus haven't been updated to include the versions of the programs I need in order to do half of the crap I have to do anyway.
So I play Kingdom Hearts instead.
Blargh.
Any reading and/or music suggestions? I bought a new book the other day that is quite lovely, but maybe having a nice stack of new things to read once I'm out of the dorms will get me out of the constant state of doing nothing I'm finding myself in.
Occasionally my mom and I will delve into the past and listen to the stuff we listened to in the 90s. Alice in Chains (original line up) was one of our favorite bands.
I'm going to start "The Expats" when I get home. It just looks like a fun, interesting sort of cat-and-mouse thriller :)
ReplyDeleteI am out of the loop a little when it comes to reading, at the moment :/
I have NO desire to read Spanish books right, now, except maybe Harry Potter or this one my host mama brought home the other day
