I probably shouldn't be doing this right now, but hey, what's school if you're not going to procrastinate on every assignment? It's been a rough week and a half since BEDA, and I've been having trouble finding time to do anything other than schoolwork. I'm talking really tough schoolwork; the toughest schoolwork I have ever had. I haven't talked to my friends, The Marauders,* in a long time, and I really miss them. I scheduled a three hour break to watch Starship with them yesterday, which was really nice.
I've allotted myself four hours before bedtime to finish an assignment that is due tomorrow, in which I had to write and entire scene (including a 30-line monologue) in iambic pentameter. I chose to add Portia's suicide scene into Julius Caesar, and though I'm having trouble portraying the madness I feel like she went through, I really like it. If it turns out well enough, I might end up posting it sometime in the next few days. We'll see.
I really enjoy writing, which is why this assignment feels easy and I think I can blog instead of finishing it, but I don't know if that is what I want to do with my life. God knows I'm not the best writer, but I really find joy in writing. I do it as often as I can, and it truly makes me happy. I really need to choose a career as soon as possible.
In other news, I... I was about to write about college again. This is basically the same news. In practically the same news, I just registered for summer courses, and I am absolutely terrified about their impending damper on my summer plans. Classes happen to start the same week that I am going to Disneyland, meaning I'll be spending late nights after Disneyland doing schoolwork, instead of, you know, getting well rested for the next day. Similarly, classes end two weeks after LeakyCon, so I really don't know how I'm going to manage that.
Does anybody have a timeturner I could borrow? I know they were all supposedly destroyed in the ministry battle of '95, but there has to be one out there somewhere. If anyone finds one, let me know. Until then, I'll be writing in Elizabethan. Wish me luck!
*The Marauders are a group of friends who got together during the HPAFTW drive, creating a separate Skype group to sing songs in and create all around madness. Since then, we've worked together on Project For Awesome, started a YouTube channel that has actually gotten way more attention than it should have, and made better friendships than anyone can ever ask for.
