Plans and Updates
Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 5:51 PM

I haven't posted in what feels like a pretty long time, so I supposed it was finally time to update.

I think, very possibly, that I might be going to the States again, just before the first day of senior year (and it is so weird saying that). I'll just be tagging along with my eldest brother on his business trip to San Francisco so it's basically a trip of convenience. And I still have a visa so it's all good. Although it is a possible thing, I don't think it's very probable. Still. It won't hurt to hope. I've been dying for a real vacation this whole summer, and now it's just right under my nose, if my parents let it happen. This entire summer, now that I really think about it, has been worthless—nothing productive, nothing memorable, nothing remotely fun. I at least want this, and it would be the highlight of my whole summer.

Also, I have finally been able to write something (which is not a poem), since God-knows-when. It's a short story, and a lot of emphasis on the word 'short' because what I wrote is only 300 words, and interestingly, I was able to write it, finish it, and be satisfied with it all in forty minutes or so—which is a huge thing for me. It kept my hopes up that I am still a capable writer, and I can finish the things that I've started. It's probably one of the most productive and substantial things that I've done all season. So thank goodness for it.
