Short and Boring
I decided not to. It's probably a lot more interesting to me anyway.
I feel a bit insane. Just all the thoughts whirring about in my brain are making me feel a touch affected. Or afflicted. Either way.
Still, the madness is okay, I suppose. I've been spending lots of time dreaming up strange dreams for use in this year's NaNoWriMo competition. I'm actually hoping to win within the first two weeks, although I don't think that will be enough to actually finish my novel. It's far too sprawling in scope to be completed in 50,000 words only.
I'll let you know how that's going once I've started it. It's not until November, but that's just life. I'll start planning in about two weeks, even though I'm only supposed to give myself one week to plan per the 'official' rules in the No Plot? No Problem! book that accompanies the insane mission into literatureland.
My roommate's off spending the night with her boyfriend. Ick. Again. I just won't think too hard about that...
So here I am. A second-year junior in college, and still no major. Still no real plans, save for a strong desire to study abroad in the UK. I'm thinking the University of Birmingham. They've got all three of the programs I need at a transfer/study-abroad school for my major, lovely accents, and some of my family live there, I think. Or maybe it was somewhere else. They're second or third cousins at the least, in any event, so we're not exactly close, but still. It would be cool to meet them.
I'm also still bonkers. And I know I use the word crazy to mean a lot of things, but when I say bonkers, I mean verifiably off-the-wall, possibly-needs-treatment, somebody-get-this-kid-a-straight-jacket kind of way.
But we knew that already.
Bleargh. There's nothing to talk about today. I just haven't been terribly ruminative lately. Maybe I'll have something more interesting to talk about tomorrow, or the day after.
