But wait? You're on a boat filled with homework, textbook readings, upcoming projects, essays, and finals? And that boat is sinking!?!?!
Well my friend. Best wishes to you. And I hope the rescue team arrives quickly.
Summer.
thats the rescue team. Un-subtling my metaphors.
Ok who wants to read a story
It's actually pretty long. And looks kinda weird all smushed up on the blog page its on.
Well enjoy. It's in phase 1 right now.
With the story, the most important thing for me is that I actually created and completed a work. This is something that hasn't been done before. I am really just full of ideas and some notes scribbled out in various journals. But putting together a complete story was a great new challenge.
This has been the big focus of my week. Tomorrow is the day of class discussion. Should be fantastic.... actually they are kind of nice to each other. No teeth. No claws. Only hugs.
People are polite.
in class at least.
Ok. My week hasn't been much of anything. It went by fast but it was really nothing stuck out. Maybe because my mind is a little too stuck on May 8th. The days of the end. Can you believe it?
Unfortunately my new media flow has been reduced to a trickle. I haven't started a new book(probably wont until summer and will most likely be All the Pretty Horses). Haven't really got any new music(U.O. blog did release a LSTN4 recently. BTW John did you listen/like any of those songs or did the CD even work?) and as for movies...I don't think I'll get the chance to see any until I'm finished with school. But I guess it's not too bad. This year has been good to me in all 3 areas. Movies may have taken a hit but I still feel pretty satisfied with all that I got to see. As for Books, I've got some great reading done on a personal level but there were not any big/new book revelations. But not all years can be like that. I just remember also, the tragedy of the Rushmore screenplay. How did I lose it? I do not know. Why? It's been missed. Maybe the RT screenplay was jealous! The one thing I am very proud of this year is the Musical growth. When I got the laptop my Ipod restored itself and I had to reload all my Cds. And by Cds I mean a few Weezer, Coldplay, Wes Anderson Soundtracks, and a few mixed Cds. And then the birthday rolled around. A Cd from James, again Thank you! A Cd from Johnny, Thank you!!
and then a few itunes gift cards. I can now happily say I proudly own 940 songs. It's amazing to see how far my music has come. Two years ago I was only dipping my toes in the water. Now I am proudly submerged in the pool.
And as another thank you and a tribute to my Music accomplishments
I give you
:-$
Awesome. I haven't read a short story of yours since 8th grade in Mr. Allan's class.
ReplyDeleteGreat story though, I think I might have seen a little bit of Jacob in Rob. Or maybe I was just think about the apple pie incident recently. The ending worked really well too.
Casual Conversations = No.
ReplyDeleteRock on man. Casual Conversations is the jam of the century. Just listen to the music baby.
ReplyDeleteat least it wasnt that ipod nano commercial song!
ReplyDeleteI think he is messing with us. lol.
