A quick early-morning minute to blog: Things Looking Up: My Astro homework got pushed back until Tuesday (HALLELUJAH) I ran for the bus (I didn't think I could actually run!) and caught it, and wasn't burned out afterwards My trip-planning for AAS is moving along nicely; I registered, and I got the hotel lined up, and I'm working on getting the travel plan... (just have to remember to go see the STA place in MU ... today, I think). I finished 1 whole QM problem and 2 halves of problems last night (holy crap! that's... 2 days before it's due!) Things To Keep Working On: If I could finish QM homework tonight... or all but a little bit.... AMAZING I also need to write the first draft of my WS paper tonight (or put a goodly dent in it) (I'm getting it edited Friday) My Astro group is, apparently, pretty far ahead of everyone else on this project work... BUT that doesn't mean we don't have a long way to go, so here's hoping we finish a bunch in 5 hours on Saturday. Rewards: SciFi Club Thursday night. It might be peppered with "finishing up QM" or "reading for Astro," but it will regardless be delicious. Play with Stefanie on Friday. YAY TWINNESS!!! 2 Fantasy Novels. I swore I wouldn't read them until I finished Quantum and my WS paper... should I hold out for "until I finish Astro" as well? no, because there'll be another quantum homework set. Party Saturday night at Stefanie's. It'll be pretty fun, I think, and if not, oh well. Kitten Store Trip on Sunday. Wee! I need some benadryl, though... More Overarching concerns: I want to be a good writer and I know that the best way to do that is to write. But I've given so much of me to physics that I don't know if I can write. I don't know if I have space in the back of my mind to hold my stories, so that they quietly and happily tumble into place with lots of clicks. I've noticed that I'm not as close to my friends this year as I wish I was. Part of it is that we're all more busy: Robin, Louise, Katy, Katie, and me are all working our asses off to do well. Part of it is that I've made less conscious effort to connect to people, and when I *am* with people I do some stupid shit, or say something stupid, or in other ways am really selfish. I really, REALLY want a cat, but how can I handle my allergies? I don't KNOW the extent of my allergicness, so I don't KNOW if it's "get over it" allergies, "take benadryl daily" allergies, or "damn you need that shot" allergies. And if it requires a prescription or somesuch, how can I afford it on a student's health insurance? Am I losing weight? am I gaining weight? am I caring too much? I'd like to say I think I lost some, but I haven't been doing the walking hardly at all, and I have been overloading the candy and cookies--my roommates have as much of a sweet tooth as I do so there's always fodder. Thermal Physics next semester, with the better prof and possible GRE applications, or Quantum II, so I don't forget it in the year that'll pass between when I take it and when I took 1? it also has some possible gre applications, and a different prof is teaching it... my main fear is that I will not know what to do in it if I don't take it in Spring. But thermal would be... interestingly new. Time to apply for REUs, internships, and start getting into contact with people for graduate school. AGH! too much to do. .... sometimes you just have to remind yourself that a lot of what you do is jumping through hoops with little purpose. Also, that's a LOT of rewards for a little bit of work. You'd better do it well and not slack off on all the other shit you have yet to do. Things are winding down, though. this paper, these two homework sets, 1 other QM set, maybe 1 other astro set, and a workshop portfolio are IT before finals. FINALS! SHHH! they're not there. |

Stories I'm currently working on. | |
|

***Tbook1 (Time and Chaos, needs a new name, needs to be edited) ***Book of Sun (Just needs to be edited. Tis a Nano novel) ***Book of Whispers part 1 (Does not jive at all with part 2; needs to be rewritten to fit and to have less suckage) ***Book of Whispers part 2 (Needs some rehaul editing, needs some loose ends tied up, needs to fit) ***Book of Whispers part 3 (Needs to be finished... then needs to die o.o Not sure if I need a third part in the series) ***Dium's Story (Needs a point, progress, anything... needs to be integrated into Tbook1, since that is what it is a part of, mainly) ***Trio Story with Jackie and Louise (Maybe we should get together and work on this, guys) ***Demon Story (This is working out pretty good so far. I like the plot, it's a bit convoluted, and the characters are interesting) ***New Witch Story (It's only 30 pages long, dang) ***Dragon's Voices (This has SO much potential! wee!) | |

I love your inner voice :) Well, I love *you* too. Duh.
Ok, so I love that you have set forth with this body image thing positively, and all in all you're going about it so well and I'm glad that as far as I can see, it hasn't consumed you. Just be careful :) 'Member that you're beautiful beautiful beautiful, no matter what.
<3
(haha... that heart was almost a <4... that should be the "new <3". heehee)
