First Day Back From the Brink

So. The first day back to school after the Break. Here's a rough itinerary:

12:20 am: Go to bed.
4:30 am: Wake back up. Proceed to finish history term paper. Completely disregard the voices in head saying, "I told you so."
6:20 am: Term paper complete. Proceed to Phase Two: Print the damn thing.
6:40 am: Paper is printed, breakfast is eaten, and the bus' ETA is 7:10.
6:45 am: Realize that there's no way both sister and I can manage a shower. Sacrifice shower to sister.
7:10 am: Scramble out the door to catch bus.
2:20 pm: Die.
3:00 pm: Lament the fact that before any anything can be accomplished, must clean up room.
3:30 pm: Room finished, starts on posting entry, i.e., this.

*Sigh* And now I've got a shitload of work to do. Today is what I like to term a "fuckplotz" day, especially since my mind is "flisching." Yes, I do make this shit up as I go along.

I've got a sonnet project due for English, a book to read for English, and play to read for English (I'm noticing a slight trend...), a bunch of test corrections to do for Biology, and, like, five little shit things and a story project due for Creative Writing. On top of that, I've got regular homework, plus a few projected tests/quizzes for Friday. Oh, what joy my heart is inspired to.

On the plus side, I've got scenes one and two posted up on my deviantArt. I'm trying to follow one of my N.Y.R.s (New Year Resolution) that says I should try to complete things before I post them, so I'm trying to finish scene four before I post scene three. But the way I am right now, I don't think I could manage it. Heartbreakers: The Ultimate Gemstone Experience, Spain Edition is a very casual, light, funny, happy, bros-before-hoes kind of story. Not the mood I'm in right now.

But the mood I'm in is productive for a Scheherazade legend remix, which is what I'm writing for that Creative Writing story project. We had to choose a fairy tale/fable/myth/legend thing, and rewrite it in some way, like modernize it, or a different perspective. I've decided to do Scheherazade: Darkstyle Remix, where Scheherazade is an assassin; her sister Dunyazade is a gunrunner; their father, the "vizer" Jafar is the "king's" best friend and ends up hiring his daughters to kill him; the "king" Sharyhar is really dictator for life of a futuristic world; and the stories aren't just pulled out of her ass, they're stories of her life. The plot is the same as the original tale, just the motive behind everything that happens is different, as well as the setting. I think I'll leave the original names in, just to give it a bit of flair. I'll probably end up posting it on my dA if you want to read it.

At any rate, I hope you had a good day. One of my other N.Y.R.s is to stop bitching about things that can't really be helped, only dealt with. So let me go deal with something now: obtaining proper nourishment.

Sayonara!
