well, last week was hell and everything since then was pretty fun.

Friday night I went out with my mom and sister for supper and then hung out at Louise's with Cal and her and watched Gintama, which was ridiculously hilarious. I approve! Then I came home and hung out with the roommates.
Saturday we acquired groceries. JOY! then I promptly made brownies and spent all evening watching movies with roommates and various friends; stayed up until 1:30 and saw half of underworld and all of boondock saints and 28 days later (28 days later is a lot less scary when people talk through it). I didn't much like boondock saints. There were parts of it that were fairly good, especially earlier on, but the ending was kind've dumb. Also, a cat exploded :(
Sunday was hang-out-with-Stefanie day and damn did we have fun. I loves me my sister :)
Monday was a day of frantically finishing the homework I should've done Sunday night and didn't, and then I hung out with first heyfoureyes (and a friend Jamie) and then with sasha_feather . We talked about a lot of stuff. She encourages me to continue into the sciences and be a writer on the side, and it's very very very much appreciated. I talk a lot when I am apparently comfortable with my friends. how the hell do you guys handle that?

Monday was completed by talking very briefly to Stephen online and also Robin and then, joyofjoys! skyra123 whom I haven't seen for freakin ages. We worked on her story and it is very good and interesting. It is ironic because I was just stressing to sasha_feather that I have a hard time writiing fantasy stories that aren't epic adventures, and bam skyra hits me with one (yay!).

I did some writing this morning, for my workshop class. Technically I finished my Dragon Voices short story over the weekend but I don't like how it turned out much. I tend to have very quick endings. I also read a lot of classic Tbook stuff (my longest running story), and enjoyed it far too much. It's a terrible story laden with MarySueism but I cannot deny my own affection for it.

Plans for this week:
Well, I am going to go to class today and talk to my mentor about grad schools later. Then I'll probably go home and do laundry, fill out the forms I need to fill out for McNair, and *hopefully* start my WS paper, my Astro homework, or study for Astro. C'mon, prductivity!

or maybe I'll just do my workshop homework/write for fun. Damn I am in such a writing mood of late!

I agree completely with you about the cat in Boondock Saints. Over all it's an amusing movie, but the poor cat... :( I never watch that part.

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!)
