I have some venting to do, and no way I can do it on Facebook--too many in-laws there. I know that when you get married you have to love and accept your in-laws, because they don't go away. I'm not saying I don't love and accept them (I do), but I did NOT expect my mother-in-law to move in with us before our first year of marriage was even through ( Read more... )

I have been a wife for a little over a month now. It's kind of hard to wrap my head around that. My thoughts so far ( Read more... )

Hi there. It's me ( Read more... )

Even though I'm WAY behind on NaNoWriMo, I still intend to try to complete the challenge, even if I don't meet the end of November deadline. I figure, I started late, so I get to finish late too! Not that I'm not going to TRY to meet the deadline. Anyway, I wanted to post a small snippet, if anyone even bothers reading my LJ anymore.

Once again, it's been too long since I've posted, and maybe it doesn't really even matter--Im not even sure anyone still reads this. Lately I've been feeling some conflicting emotions, and i'm not sure if I need advice, or if I just need to vent here, where only a few will read it ( Read more... )

Once again, I have been neglecting this journal, which is a huge problem of mine when it comes to writing--I don't write. I know my life is busy, and I'm finishing my last term of classes(!), and working part-time, and managing a social life in between (ok ok ok...lately there hasn't been a ton of that to manage in the first place), but if I ever ( Read more... )

I find the whole "I'm gonna take over your entire screen with an ad before you can do anything on this site" philosophy a little tiring. I'm sure there's a way you can pay to upgrade your account and that will all magically go away, but I'm too cheap (and poor) to pay to use this site, so I guess I'll have to deal with it ( Read more... )

In the last few years, I have started several stories. Started--and given up. Nothing worth commentating on, no solid plots, outlines, and no real sense of what type of story I really want to write. Its safe to say that it's been a very, very long time since I've written anything at all for enjoyment, and that devastates me. Writing is and has ( Read more... )

I go to Briar Cliff University, and one thing that makes my school different is that we use a trimester system rather than semesters. Three terms a year, the first goes from the start of school till Thanksgiving break, the second is usually over around Valentine's day, and the third obviously is in May. Our breaks tend to fall around the same time ( Read more... )

I have GOT to get back into the habit of writing regularly! I have once again neglected this journal for longer than I intended, and I really do want to get back into the habit of just WRITING, whether it be a random journal update or a Serious Work of Fiction. My super-busy college days are nearly over (NEVER thought I was going to be able to say ( Read more... )
