So, today I went to the post office to find out how much it cost to mail something to California. The website had confused me to no end, and I've only sent things abroad or within my state, so I was in need of assistance. I walked up to the counter, and asked the woman how much it would cost. She asked me how fast I needed it to get there.. I said I didn't care. She slapped a 37 cent stamp on it. I smiled, then grimaced when I realized I had no cash on me. So I put 37 cents on my credit card to mail my letter. *sigh*
I see the board has been really quiet lately, and that is completely opposite to my crazy life. I am finally through midterms, one of which I overslept... I had been terribly ill the night before, up until 6am... finally fell asleep. When I awoke I felt wonderful. That was my first indication that something was wrong.
My first class of the day was at 11, my midterm at 2. I rushed to my computer and found it was 4pm... I had slept right through my midterm. I freaked out, cried, ran around the house in hysterics, but, thankfully, my teacher let me take it that evening. I made an 86, not my greatest, but I was grateful not to have a zero!
The weather is cooling, and I am phasing into my fall clothing... my summer clothing is sorta light and happy, but my fall clothing is a little edgier, a little darker. My mood changes with the temperature. :) During the winter I'm usually just miserable, but right now, I'm pretty darn happy. :)
It's been a rollercoaster lately, especially emotionally, but things seem to finally be easing up. I went to a play Sunday, and I'm going to another this weekend.. Theatre isn't my favourite. I do enjoy it, but not nearly this much. However, my boyfriend is a theatre major, so I need to see the shows he is involved in. He's proud of his work, and I'm proud of him! :)
I love fall. I absolutely adore this weather! I sleep with the window open, and walk outside with a shortsleeved shirt and a jacket. It's lovely. It's absolutley wonderful, and I do wish Fall would last a little longer! Winter comes too quickly!
As it is getting cooler, I am strangely missing England. This weather so reminds me of my friends, of playing ball in the woods behind my first home, of how cold it got in my second one, and how Matt and I would stroll through the garden that was our backyard. *sigh* I do miss that. I even miss trekking to ASDA. I have to drive everywhere here, and I still haven't gotten back into that rhythm.
I'm working on a screenplay. It's one I started on ages ago, and while it's starting to become more complex, the second half of the second act, as usual, is too thin. I need to just keep brainstorming I guess, but I love my characters and their complexities. Each has their own problems, but they strangely all want the same thing deep down inside: a normal life. But what is normal? I love it. I really love it. I love writing and the chance to construct a completely fictional reality!
My CD burner is on the fritz. I keep trying to burn things off of iTunes, but it just won't cooperate. I'm trying to figure out what the problem is, but I'm starting to concede that I may need to invest in an iPod. *sigh* Such a waste of money, but ah well. At least I'll have access to my music then!
Much love to all of you! Hope all is well! :) *HUGS*
