...T'was my very thought this morning when I got up early to go to conditioning.
No, not the conditioning that you do after you shampoo, rinse, and repeat. This is crazy, out of your mind, soccer conditioning. You run, and you run, and you run, and then, just for the heck of it, you run some more! Then, depending on what the captain of the team feels like doing, you either go inside and cool down, do some crunches, OR you head out past the track and to the bleachers... No, not to sit down and grab a drink, but to RUN up and down them! (see the key word here? RUNNING!!!)
Then, if you're lucky, the captain will decide to hit the fields and work on some drills. But, if you're not, you hit the weight room instead.
Can you say...EXHAUSTION?!?
But, it's all worth it to play soccer. :)

I am so totally done with sitting in a little box of a room for four hours straight each day!!!
HIP HIP HOORAY!
Now all I have to do is have 8 hours of in-car driving instruction...
Bleh.
And then take an in-car driving test administered by a cop...

THEN I finally get my driver's license.

Bored....
Can you say...writer's block?!? Ugh. I'm working on an assignment for Christian's Writer's Guild and cannot for the life of me think of ANYTHING to write next.
Yes, I know, I know, I need to post things for my stories up here. I promise to do that soon. I've tortured you relentlessly with my poetry long enough. :)
So... I'm going to a play tonight! Whee! It's Hadley's play, actually. Her theatre group is doing the Music Man. She plays one of the main characters!
(GOOOOOOO HADLEY!!!)

I feel like I'm in summer school...
Ugh. I have midterms tomorrow for driver's ed. They quite literally sit us in front of a tv and play video after video after video of driver's ed stuff for four hours straight. We have one, (if we're good, sometimes two) five minute cell phone breaks. Yes, cell phone breaks. Then we have a fifteen minute break in which we can quickly walk to walmart and grab a snack. Most of the kids get subway sandwiches. And the instructor we have is very laid back. He said tomorrow that we may have a different teacher who'll be stricter on us.
AHHH!!!!
AHHH!!!!
Off to Driver's Ed!
Yup... You heard it right. I'm taking a driver's course! I'll be able to drive legally in less than three weeks! So, anyone who feels like living to their next birthday...stay away from the streets. :)

Ugh...
Why is it that every time I read over my poems or stories they just get cornier and cornier?? Tell me, WHY?!?
I quite literally have to force myself to keep the poem/story as it is and actually let someone else read it. That's quite hard to do whenever there's a little voice inside my head screaming at me to either rewrite the whole thing or throw it away cause it's very cliche...
AHHH!!!!!

Writing!
Yeah, so since this is a blog that I made mainly for my writings, I guess I should either add some or talk about them.
I don't feel like adding anything right now. It's too late.
If you were to describe my status in writing right now, you would find appropriate usage in the words: frantic, disorganized, OVERDUE, unabletochannelanyinspirationwhatsoever, (so that's just a bunch of words squished together, who cares?) and repetitive. Yeah.
Don't get me wrong, I love to write. But one can get overwhelmed when one's writings are all messily tossed together in a sorry excuse for a makeshift notebook. One can also get frustrated when one is HORRIBLE at poetry and can find no inspiration for a poetry assignment due five days ago.
So, to describe the intricate workings of my numerous Word files and my beaten-up notebook, let me make a list of the FUN writings that I've been working on (but have not yet completed).

I have a couple of poems. (I didn't say that I didn't write poetry; I just said that I wasn't good at it.) One is entitled: The Journey, and another one that I have is called To Lose This World. I have a couple others that I haven't named yet.
So yeah, there's a little bit about my writing life. I'll post more about it later; I'm going to bed.
Day Two! And it's still alive!!
This is the second day of said blog.
Hmm.
Cool, I haven't killed it yet.
Not bad, maybe this'll work after all!
Now all I need to do is find something to talk about. Heh, that won't be too hard. ;)

Testing, testing...um... 1, 2, 3?
Wow.
I have a blog.
...cool.
Now, the question is; will I keep up with it?
....Probably not.
Stay tuned as I try to figure out this thing.
