Awwww....craptastic....really.

Well, I feel beyond pathetic. I have a friggin' A- in Creative Writing! An A-. Unbefrigginlievable!!!! And the minus is soooo minus that it's literally scraping the line between A- and B+. 90.6! .6 away from a bloody friggin' B, which may as well be an F! Here I was really thinking "this" could be MY thing...nope...not it....which means...what exactly? Well, I suppose it means it's time for me to choose a different concentration for my major. Especially since we're moving into poetry now...and "dramatic" scenes after that! So, there we have it! A double opportunity to smash my head into a friggin' wall!

Oh....and as if all that weren't bad enough, now not only am I supposed to be picking the folks that'll be reading my craptastic poetry, but they will be given an opportunity to choose from we creative writers too! Man am I ever just plain buggered!

I'm going to go sulk now thanks.............................

I LOL...and then it goes "sploink!"

Sooo...
I can breath that ever so heavy sigh of relief...all is well in my world after all...so far as it would seem.
In traditional Le Pew fashion...
Le *sigh*
Ever on, ever on. Darkness sweeps through day and smothers it politely as small children creep about begging for "just ten more minutes". Of time, of life. Of both I think. Ever on, ever on. I, for my part in this silly sweet play, shall wrap myself in words breathed by antiquity and call it "Agamemnon".

And then.....

For the record, I REALLY suck at math. But enough of that.....so, I had a blast in creative writing today. We had to write a semi-collaborative story today. Three groups, three home-grown characters, three totally over-done genres all blended into one tale. Oh if only I could have saved a copy. It was dreadful and amusing and oh so much fun!

Soo0.....

Well, I'm officially two days late on submitting my thesis for The Pillow Book by Sei Shonagon. I decided that I didn't feel comfortable just going with the selection of the Pillow Book that is in my World Lit book, so I bought (had husband buy ^_~ he's soooo fabulous!) a copy of it so I could choose what section to pull from it on my own. I just got the book today, so the thesis proposal should be done by tomorrow. Hopefully. Oh, and I have a MATH test tomorrow...scary stuff...yes-sir.
