Mirth and Melancholy

So you wanna know something unbelievable? I wrote six chapters in five days! :D Remember what I said in my previous post? I did manage to write all those chapters before August 29th. I still can't believe it. Like, the book is basically done. Just a bunch of editing and revising left. And let me tell you, last night I stayed up until 1 AM editing. Not a thorough edit because I was in bed using an iPad, but just grammatical errors and word choice. Which reminds me, gotta do the thorough editing today. Also, I need to work on our cover page. The first day of school was yesterday, and I must say, it was pretty alright. I took some time about 30 minutes before class to find my classroom, and I took a front seat. I learned something from my summer classes; if you have trouble seeing the board you better sit at the front. In my history class during the summer I was afraid to sit at the front, but gradually I learned to not care about the other people and I slowly went up and up unt...

If I'm not mistaken, it's August 19 today. Right? Silly of me to ask a question I know you guys can't answer. Okay, yes. It's August 19. Oh my god I'm getting distracted by so many things. I'm supposed to write my book but then Facebook distracted me. Facebook is full of ... let me just say, horrid stuff. I don't even want to begin to explain. Anyway :) back to what I was going to say, which I didn't really plan beforehand. I want to talk about the book I'm writing, but I won't say anything until it's finished. Which will be by the end of this month, inshaAllah. I need to finish six more chapters before August 29th. Yikes, I better go do that now. Bye bye! Also, I don't consider myself in trouble if I post at least twice in the same month. ;) Until next time! ^_^

In my last post, I said I would go into the stories when I got home, right? But I didn't. And I don't even remember what happened. But these past weeks of school have been so stressful. I have to carry around my heavy as heck backpack, along with a heavier ugly IKEA bag that holds all my art stuff. There's no solution. Stupid college doesn't have a locker system. So I have to embarrass myself going around with two ugly bags. Embarrassing myself doesn't really bother me, actually, when I have two heavy loads on my shoulders. What bothers me most is going home every day with a leg cramp. And I fear that provided I keep this up, my already humped back will be even more humped before I even reach my twenties! Wow, it's August already! I have six more days of school, counting today. I can't wait for it to be over! Hopefully by then I'll have more time to write. I will be starting an online writing course on August 10th for six weeks only, and I will b...
