Writing and stuff.
I just sent my poems Karma,Karma, Manifesto of a Houswife, Air Element and Artists Who Write at 1 AM in the Morning to Kiss Machine.
So far, aside from Marjorie Pickthall...I've only heard back from two. I missed the deadline for one, and the other said that they'd get back to me in a couple weeks. I haven't checked for my online submissions, but its hard not to get really frustrated.
I write these 100% for myself, so that I can unleash some force upon the world-
Buuuuuut....I want to do this as part of my living too. I submitted them in April, it's been a couple of weeks.
So, it's kind of nerve inducing, in a sort of I have to drink numerous cups of coffee just to keep myself jittered onto another subject type of way.
I know I'm already in Helikon...and that I won that competition, but AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH.
Also sort of making me nervous is:
I realize I've morphed into everything I despise...
An OVERSTRESSED, OVERZEALOUS, OVERENTHUSIASTIC NERD AND ALL AROUND KEENER.
I picked up a flyer for the New York Film Academy...if they have a one week program for high school students in June, then I'm all for it. They're at various VERY interesting locations and I would DIE for the oppurtuinty to participate in any location.
I would do July...but I already signed up for Data Management (and I need my credits/don't want to do math during the school year.)
Summer school...*very unenthusiastic woot*....bleeech.
I also changed my courses. Instead of Chemistry, I'm taking World Issues. I can explode things on my own time.
AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
I really need to hang out with people, once these two weeks are over-
I really will not care at all. Let the socialization process begin. I WANT TO GET OUTSIDE...
I WANT PEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPLE.
...and you know this a desperate plea when you have a relative isolationist/introvert crying
"PEOPLE! I WANT TO HANG OUT WITH PEOPLE! I WANT TO STOP READING!"
I'd like to poke at their squishy little insides, thankyouverymuch.
I want to see people OUTSIDE of school and not type AT people. And I don't want to have conversations with DEAD people either.
(Don't ask, if you don't already know.)
So yes. Erm. People.
People = Good?

Also sort of making me nervous is:
- Fullford Debating Tournament (yes, I am a proud debater. I don't think many people know that about me/would expect that.)
- Filming (I have basically a two day stretch to do it all, because my actors can't do it before One Acts are over, which basically...I cut my time for editing short, and I would literally throw a temper tantrum if I had to find other people. I know no boys who can act, so DJ is my only hope.)
- Model UN co club head. Will I get it?
