Middle school band concerts. Not something I find to be enjoyable. I get to watch small children play instruments, sometimes poorly, for an hour. During this time, I'm not allowed to read, listen to my own music, go off to find people to talk to, or leave in any way. Trapped. Horribly and awfully trapped. And this is the joy and get to endure tonight as my little brother plays his drums.
Not that I have anything against the band. I love the band, just not the middle school ones. I have a personal vendetta against the middle school in general. Out of all the public schools I sat through and learned, middle school was the closest to Hell any of them ever got. Not even high school was as bad as middle school. Seventh and eighth graders have it the roughest. It's basically one large bitch fest the entire time your there. And then the smaller weaker one get pushed to the library where they slowly loose their sanity before become insanely cool. Well, most of the time. It's those kids who grow up being able to party like their drunk while being sober and act high while completely clean. So, maybe it was good in the long run. Or maybe I just found awesome library friends. =3
And while on the subject of libraries, bringing my thought process to books, I like writing things. And being that I like writing things, I figured this would be great to use to mark progress in my writing efforts.
Having been trying to write a book for years, it gets to be very annoying once you realize you don't have the attention span for it. But now that I've sorted out a few things like time management and school, I can sit down and write. This is something I've been meaning to do since last summer, but was too busy running around the country with her family. Even if I can't quite remember what she did last summer. =/
But, from now on, every time I post, I plan on adding at the bottom a thingy saying how many pages and how many words. It should be a good way to track my writing progress.
And one more thing. Check out www.goodreads.com/ It's a wonderful site.
