September 30

It's the last day of the month and Ii can't even remember it. If I try really hard I think the first week was rained out, the second week I was sick, and the third week I was trying to get back on track. This past week, I've spent mainly on school...so, yeah, september, not very glamourous. On that note lets see if the last day can bring it up a notch. I have some chronic trepidation about my job right now because of some dame with chronic negativity, but...I have faith that God can handle her even though my chest tightens at the thought of spending eight hours with her. Light conquers darkness. Happy Friday!

Hello September! Hitting the books & the playground this month

     Well...it's September 1st and I'm officially back in school. So far I like my classes and feel genuine interest for the subjects. My major is still up in the air but I'm pretty sure I'm going for Liberal Studies, which will allow me to keep this erratic course selection I've been choosing and still graduate at a semi-decent date. More than anything, I am trying to find a way to make money doing things I already love to do. 


      My interest in writing has never been stronger. This is unfortunate in a way, because my sister, the self-proclaimed "greatest writer in the world" (and rightfully so) has narrowed her focus on this area of her particular giftedness as well. So like singing before it, I find myself in the "me too" category of a talent that I am genuinely good at...but perhaps not as genius at as the aforementioned sister. Still, I am good enough and the lifestyle beckons me as none so strongly have beckoned me since my acting aspirations. I know MY category is supposed to be photography (and I DO like it...a lot) but it's more of a pleasure hobby, for me....a great escape. I tend to glaaaaze over when the technical jargon kicks in.
     
     Anyway, I suppose the only way to wrestle myself from that second status, into a niche of my own is to actually write something that I'll actually allow other people to read. Ha ha! Yes, I do write things just for me...but seriously, it's time to write in public. Funnily enough, the more I read, the more I like to write, and the more I write, the more I want to write anything. So I'm going to have to give myself a writing assignment, designed for public consumption and SHARE IT. I think I'm going to push through NaNoWriMo this year and emerge with a product. And I think I'm going to pull from my unfinished Script Frenzy bone-yard.


     **On a totally off-topic side note: I am keeping up with my fitness better than I EVER have in my life! I work out minimum 30 min x3 weekly! MINIMUM. If I had a bike, it would be more. The best thing about committing to fitness is that I'm not suffering through torturous sessions...I'm re-learning how to play. Yes play. Play is fun and it's why we all miss childhood so much sometimes. It doesn't have to be the kind of organized games called "sports" that the masses expect adults to do. It can be silly and crazy and fun. It can have no rules or made-up rules. It can be whatever gets you moving and laughing and enjoying yourself and I guarantee it will burn calories...laughing burns calories. 


     Anyway, all for now. Hello September, nice to see you, please be gentle. :)
