ranting about writing, yay!

I feel very sad that I failed to evoke the feeling to actually start a new word in my novel, although I'm telling myself repeatedly to continue it. I do want to continue it, I do want to finish it thoroughly and be really happy about it! My eldest sister is reading a fantasy book by the title of Eragon and a funny looking dragon that's supposed to be fierce. She does have a thing for the traveling journals of the characters in JRR Tolkien's, Raymond E. Feist's, those people in the Dragonlance series, and any books along the lines, in a new world of recycled living species and very alien names, so I wasn't surpised. Anyway, I don't even bother to read this book as I know I will have difficulties on distinguishing further new species (The Shade? Urgals? Eh?) and will feel extremely disappointed with it's take on remaking a new bestseller with Lord of the Rings as a guideline. But I felt really challenged when I found out that the writer wrote it when he was 15. But I figured that he had nothing much to do (he graduated from high school when he's 15? That's scary). He looks nerdy, by the way.

Another thing, I do have a good concept for a short story (and believe me, that this is supposed to be a proper short story), but there's the reason of not able to pin down any words. I think I am failing myself, and I know it's not writer's block. Oh well. No books in the house's scattered library (which is like, everywhere, but filled with fantasy books. Blame this on the older siblings, and my brother for the full Robotech novel series) is interesting to me anymore. I actually felt like choosing the option to, well, go in the room and STUDY. Which I do feel like doing, for some reason.

GOOD THING: There is a Borders outlet near my hooouse! It's at the Curve. Ooo. With Starbucks inside. Double ooo. They're selling the Australian Vogue: Gemma Ward Issue as well. Triple ooo! I am going to try my best to get a job there for my post-SPM bleakness.

Anyway, I'm still not getting on with my website, so yay. & I am figuring on whether to post up or not of what I had done with my novel, as I realised that a character has taken a huge shift in two chapters without me actually knowing it. That's bad, I have to edit something!

Now I do feel like studying and get those straight A1s (har har har har har har har) and try to get a scholarship (har har har har har har harx94719476. Come on, my co-curriculum is BLANK) or something. I do want to study somewhere not in Malaysia.
