November. More like Suck-vember.

So far, Novemeber has blown balls. I'm hoping it gets better really freaking soon. I have SO MANY projects due before Thanskgiving break, because all teachers feel the need to cram shit into the last two weeks before break. I have a five-page rough draft to write for tomorrow (about spider-man, mind you) but my teacher gave us less than a week to do it! I still need to do more research. I'm trying to write about how New York City is a really important part of the Spider-man mythos and junk. It has to eventually become a 12 page paper. My "case texts" are the movies. I know I'm gonna spend a lot of time talking about Issue 36 of Amazing Spider-man, which is about how devestated Spider-man is after 9/11. It's really sad and really moving (i've read it before).

But yeah. I've just been in a really crappy mood lately. I just want to go home and get a break from all these classes I don't like and people that bother me and junk. I mean, I love being here at Emerson, I'm just a little confused and unhappy about what I'm doing right now, which I mentioned before. Plus I'm disappointed because I know I won't be able to finish NaNoWriMo. I have so many projects to do, and they're all writing/research projects. I'm not going to give up, persay, I just am going to be realistic and put my schoolwork first (at least before NaNoWriMo). I really want to finish it, so I'm going to try and get it done by the end of December. I mean, hey, it's my first try. I really thought I'd be able to do it, but I just don't think I can manage with all of the crap I have to do. I will definitely post it after I'm done, though. I really like where it's going, and hopefully you guys will, too.

I'm also trying to lose weight but that's really not working. I just did this performance for my Ritual and Performance class, and I bought all this candy for it, and so many people did not eat enough. So I have a giant huge bowl of M&Ms, Starbursts, Hershey's Kisses, Caramels, and swedish fish. Also I have no self control, which is bad. And then Thanksgiving is gonna make me even fatter. I'll worry about losing weight after New Year's, maybe. Ha.

We Emerson students have off this Friday, and I'm pretty pumped. Hopefully a long weekend will make things better, even though I'll have to be working on lots of projects.

EDIT: I finally got my LJ to look almost EXACTLY like I want it too. The picture on the header is a little bit blurrier than I'd like, just because I had to resize it one million times. I also got my paid account back, and uploaded some more sweet icons. And all this took precious paper procrastination time :D

writing, school, bitching
