Finding Motivation To Finish It Out

I’ve already started to get the pre-semester emails from my professors for this semester. The most interesting so far is from Judy Troy, my professor for Fiction Writing I. “…write with honesty and gusto, and do not try to make somebody believe that you are smarter than you are. What’s … Continue reading →

Taking My Language With Me

Since I’m not much in a blogging mood tonight, I figured I’d give everyone a little taste of the kind of work that I do in school. I particularly liked this Think Piece (#9) I did for Dr. Roozen, and since I finished my last final exam this semester in … Continue reading →

Body For Lifers & Journalism

I don’t have much time for posting tonight. It’s already past my bedtime. I’ve been posting on a new message board I am now a member at, Body For Lifers. Yes, I have started Body For Life again. And yes, I will finish. Then I will continue on to have … Continue reading →

95 AP Style Test Score

Here I am. On the raggedy edge. No, not really. I’m just thinking. And the thing is, is I don’t know what I’m thinking about. My mind is just wandering from place to place, from village to village inside this (insert unreadable biology word here) network of memories and thoughts … Continue reading →

A Kiss for Judas

This is a post I made for a class assignment about the Lacanian Real and the point-de capiton (stitching point) that I thought was kind of interesting, and I would like to one day truly follow up on by creating something more powerful and a better read in general. Anyway, … Continue reading →

The Fourth Journalism Test

I’m about to go take my fourth journalism test in four weeks. See, I have learned something in this class; I spelled out “four” instead of using the numeral “4.” So, Yay for me!. I’m still not sure what I made on the AP Style test because our teacher decided … Continue reading →

See, I Am Posting Regularly Again

I told you people I would be writing a little more regularly now. I’m not exactly “caught up” (for lack of a better phrase) with school work just yet, but I’m getting there. If I pass my Journalism test today, I will only have one more left to pass. Then … Continue reading →

The Historian: A Gothic Final

Wow! What a night! What a day! I have spent the better part of it, since around 1:30 pm until just about now, reading Elisabeth Kostova’s The Historian I stopped at around page 120 yesterday, and now I have made it to 445. I did sleep for about 3 1/2 … Continue reading →

30,000 Hits, Wordpress, & The Historian

I have made it up to 30,318 hits at this point in my site’s life. That’s a pretty big milestone. Well, I was actually going to post a big 25,000 HITS banner across when I reached that point, but I realized I had already passed it a few thousand later. … Continue reading →

A Harsh Realization & 2 More Weeks

I have finally come to the harsh realization that I will not be able to finish my novel in the next 2 days for NaNoWriMo. I simply have not got the time to finish off the next 25,000 words or so. I mean, it took me this long to make … Continue reading →
