Helloooo!!
Posted: September 14th, 2005, 6:52 pm
Hello once again! My feeble attempt to get back into the web the last time wasn't strong enough, for I peeked in and never made the journey back here since.
I miss all of you, life has been, as always in Lucyville, insane, now more so that I have started my final year of college.
Hmm. I believe I was asked what was new with me when I last posted (but never answered- pardon my rudeness for not responding).
I worked full time and went to school partime in the summer and I really need a vacation (seriously!) since my mind hasn;t rested in a very very long time.
Well, my classes are crazily packed with work; I have a paper due for one particular class every week. I am taking a songwriting class; I've always wanted to learn about the musical field. We'll see how that goes. I am also taking a sexual deviance course for my minor in Soc which is great, we are debating about morality, sex etc.
I am also now office manager of my college newspaper and resident Anti-Bush opinions writer- can't wait to march in DC on Sept 24th and spit out my Bush phlegm at the capitol.
I was promoted this summer to General Books Coordinator, which means I have a whole section of non-text book books under my belt and I get to do anything and everything regarding this section at the bookstore which is REALLY exciting because the pay is pretty good (I have yet to see the actual raise in my check as the process of getting the promotion takes a while, so we'll see if what I was promised is what will be delivered) I have a lot of responsibility (and I love responsibilities) and I get to do what I love- actually work with books! Also, I get a chance to be as creative as possible with advertising and all that so I can't wait to sink my teeth into this new position, I've been busy working on online orders since the rush for textbooks soared with school starting and all.
I've been struggling with some personal issues as well, I am currently dealing with a stalker, its really scaring me....
Coincidentally, my boyfriend and his bestfriends transferred to my school so I feel safe-ish, but I am still spooked by this guy who is a student at my school
Whats really been suffering for quite some time now is my writing- I've had writer's block for about a year now in my overall personal writing, but its been almost 3 years since I've actually written more than 2 or 3 pages in the book I want to get published-- worse thing is that its so close to being finished, about 30-40 more pages to go and I can start the next book in the series. I know I just need to clear my head, perhaps even take a semester off but since I am so close to graduating I won't take the break, though I am slicing myself a little too thin with everything I am doing but once I have that diploma, I can take a summer off and just work and be able to write. I want to go straight into grad school but I also know I need to take a break from being an overly studious, multi-tasking, compulsive thinker/ wired, eccentric, literature fanatic/ over achiever
sheesh, i got a headache from that one!
I guess thats why I have gone astray from studio8, I feel ridiculously miniscule in comparision to the writer I used to be and who I am now. I don't produce anything anymore, I've even questioned whether I am a real writer anymore but I know in my heart and in my intestines that I am a writer, just going through a rough time I guess. Plus all of you keep exploding with ideas and verses and pieces and here I am, no longer a participant but a bystander, I don't know, I feel pretty stupid to be amongst all of the talented people.
Trying to kick myself out a bad depression, which oddly enough does not inspire me the way it used to. I was able to put everything onto paper but now I am as wordless as a monkey
Whew, that was quite the long post. If you got through it entirely, I sincerely thank you and apologize for reading it since this was ridiculously long and not as interesting as the lives you are leading. I do hope all of you let me in on what is going on in your lives, I really miss you so.
Thanks guys!
Lucy
