I've been doing a lot of procrastinating lately. For instance, it's 5:15 right now and I haven't touched my homework, despite the fact that I've got a few things to do -- Spanish, Calculus -- and an MUN conference to prepare for

"just the drive to have lots of people I don't know in the real world review my story and reaffirm how important I am." ..basically it. I wish there could be sites for original creative writing that were actually large enough to get a substantial amount of replies (or maybe I don't, because then I might start to write only for recognition, and not just in fanfiction).
I was sad that the groups changed and happy at the same time. Sad because I actually didn't know anybody in the old group A all that well (I knew of most of you guys, but I didn't know you), and I discovered how much I like a lot of them/you. I'm happy because I'm hoping that the same thing will happen in group C now (fingers crossed, though), but it's less likely because everyone has already formed their groups in there. I miss a lot of the people from A, though.
I posted a few things on fictionpress.com for a while (a fanfiction spinoff for original work) but somehow all the stuff on there isn't that good. And I think I'm glad -- it means that, like it or not, I have to learn to write for myself.
I know what you mean about the group thing being good and bad. I *know* everyone in Humanities, if we mean "know" as in "am acquainted with," but it takes more than half a year to get to really know people, and so now there's two groups of people I won't get to know as well as I wish...? But probably I should stop complaining and then everything will be all right.
Half a year isn't long enough, true, but then is a year long enough? People are going to college in a few months, and I made myself not be sad by thinking that I will find a way to keep in contact with the people who I enjoyed talking to, and those who I don't, I would lose in four months anyway.
Which is actually more depressing now that I think it through. Haha. Oh well. We'll all be together in the little theatre.
Speaking of which, I'm not going to be at school tomorrow, and I am surprised at how upset I am that I will miss the talent show. I am severly dissapointed. I didn't realize I was looking forward to it that much.
Well, that means there's one person who didn't see me screw up Shakespeare. I had a sonnet memorized but when I got to this one line I totally blanked. I knew the rest of the lines, just not that one!!! So I sat down. Of course now I'll never forget that line for the rest of my life...which I guess is a good thing?
