(no subject)
I am in a good mood right now.
I think I woke up today with more energy than I had ever woken up with before. I nearly sprang out of bed. I done sprung.
The weather is *gorgeous* and the leaves are falling and turning. (The traitors). I need to go outside, so I will. Because the weather is too good to say inside on a computer all day. Particularly when the computer lab is scorching because I think they're still running the heater though it's in the 70s.
In creative writing, I'm starting a book. I've gotten the first scene written for today. It kinda helps that there's only a 3 page limit to our weekly work we have in workshops, so I don't have t feel overwhelmed in case I want to finish a scene and hand in something much larger. Of course, I can still finish the scene, but I deliver it in 3 page parcels. Cool. I won't have to finish a scene weekly if I don't want to. It'll also be good to have a constant, consistent goal to work with as well so that I keep on writing.
I hope this one doesn't cause me to not write in my other book at all because I like where that one's going. Though, I reread what I had written like last year, and it was kinda disheartening because I'm not sure how much of it I like at all. I know I need to rework at least the opening, and possibly that entire scene. There are a lot of other things that I was trying to get to develop one way and seem to be pushing in another, though. Alas.
I'm getting close to finished with my painting. I have to finish the dog - I've put on some of a first coat on it - and work the upper-half of the background plus add a few details to the sweater. Then it'll be done. I really like how it's turning out.
I have the house alone starting tonight till like... almost 2 weeks from now. It'll be great. My parents are going to Oregon and the North West coast - maybe into Canada, like Nova Scotia and thins, and also down into Northern California. I wish I could see the area, but I think I would rather travel alone or with someone besides my parents.
On a final note: *never* think you'll understand Beethoven's music. Even if you think you can analyze it really really finely and precisely, there will be yet a more refined level you can try to understand and narrow in on. It's like subatomic particles - sure you can try to understand quarks, but quarks have to be made of something too, don't they?
