If anyone has something to fill in there, I would be thrilled. Seriously, I can't write anything all that great recently! I lack inspiration, I suppose. Also, I'm having technical difficulties. My laptop had a virus almost as bad as mine a while back, and since then, all of my MS Office software is gone! I'm going to have to fix that somehow or another, but until then, I've been living without! I miss being able to jot down the beginning or end of a story quickly and save it so I can go back to edit and add things later.
This sudden desire to write (and not just write, but write brilliantly) has come from a realization that I have been neglecting my brain for a very long time. It makes me sad that I don't strech my vocablulary now as a young adult than I did years ago as a small child. I need to stop saying what needs to be done and start DOING!
I have been thinking about taking up photography. Not just for the glamour of it, although that is appealing, but because I've never done it before. And I think that it might help me understand that side of journalism, and therefore help me decide if that is really what I want to do with my life. I have been weighing several career 'ideas' and dreams for most of my life, and journalism is one of them.
Speaking of careers, I need to pick a college! I've got several I like, and I'm of course applying to ALL THE COLLEGES, as one of my favorite Memes says, but I really need to make some decisions here! Gosh darn it!
The world in general is both unbelievably beautiful and unimaginably messed up. History has taught us the latter, but the news teaches us the former. Even then, sometimes one must stop and remember what is really important to you yourself, and how those values reflect those of the rest of the world. I was watching this show called Life After People, and it gave me hope. The way things were going, if every human on Earth were to dissapear, right now, the world would be able to recover from all the years of damage we have inflicted on it. I must be going, I've got things to do, people to see, worlds to save, you know, boring stuff.
Allons-y!
