Life, Writing, and Everything Else

I should really update this more.  I bet some people are tired of reading my pervious entry about my chores.  Well, here's something new to read.

Next week I'm starting my summer session up at my school.  I'm only taking one class, two times a week at night.  It's a four hour class, so I'm hoping for a break in between lessons.  The class is called History and Film (or something like that).  When I got the textbook for it, I saw pictures of Forest Gump and war theme movies so I can sort of guess what the lessons will be about.  I need to take this class because my advisor said that I need more credits if I want to graduate with the rest of my class on time.  So, I decided to take a class this summer to keep my credits up.

Other than that, I'm trying to get back into my writing mood.  I have a whole list of things I would like to write about and ideas for poems and stories.  Right now, I'm trying to focus on current projects so I can get my first priorites done and not stress over them so much.  Currently, I'm working on my novel, Angel Woods, and my Heroes fan fiction based on my original character Mer (she's a water manipulator from Nantucket and yes that place is real).  Plus I have a series of werewolf short stories that I really want to get started on; I'm calling the series "Tales of Lycanthropy" (it's a working title).  I also want to focus on my own, original works and to take a break from doing, what I call, Fan Poetry.  Most of my Fan Poetry are based on Heroes and Watership Down, plus I've had ideas for Warriors fan poetry.  Warriors is a series of fantasy books about four clans of cats who fight for survival and their devoted clan.  It's a great series; I've read the first four books and there's more I really want to read (onward to Barnes and Noble!!!).  But I'm gonna have to push the fan poetry to the side in order to work on more important things.

I'm also a tad tired.  Been going to bed earlier than usual.  I'm going to bed at 11 when I usually go to bed at around 12 or 11:30ish.  Last night, I was so tired and cranky that I just wanted to get some sleep; which I did, minus the really weird and freaky dream I had.  Plus I have a really bad sunburn on my chest and my scalp from going to the beach on Tuesday.  It really hurts, thank God for aloe vera gel.

Well, that's about it for me.  Hopefully I can get some sleep, get some writing done, and get rid of this sun burn ASAP.  See ya!
