bits and pieces

Well, school's started again and boy, do I wish it was holidays again.  My schoolwork's okay, but sooooo dull.  Well, maths is anyway.  English not so much - it's just frustrating.  I still don't have my cert 2 in IT yet, but I'm well up on Bible and hist/geog already.  For someone who wants - no, is destined(hopefully) to become - a teacher, you'd think I'd love schoolwork more.  But I've already covered heaps of what these 2 years work is covering, so I can't wait for uni to get into something new.

I've been really tired lately.  I think this 2 am sugar check could have a eenie bitty bit to do with it.  Since I went onto lunch insulin I've been doing it again.  I think I'll ditch it now.  It's pretty right.

Well, I didn't finish Somewhere Over the Rainbow through the hols.  But I'm a fair ways into it now and to me it's looking good.

Signing off for now.

Bits and Pieces

Sooo... I know I wrote yesterday, but I feel like it again today.  I'm elated, because I've finished my outline of Somewhere Over the Rainbow, and I love the 'done' feeling.  Now to finish writing the book itself.

I've spent rather a lot of time on the net lately, and I wish now that I'd spent the time writing instead.  It's a glorious feeling, to read over what you've written and to know that it fits together like a complete jigsaw puzzle.  And sometimes to feel that it's a lovely as one, too.

Well, school goes back in two weeks, and I kind of want to start again, and kind of don't.  I'm enjoying these hols, writing and all, and I'd rather spend my time writing rather than doing boring and time-consuming schoolwork.  But also, I only have 2 years left now, then 4 years uni, and my formal education's finished.  It's actually quite a scary thought.  2 years, and my schoolwork as I know it will be through and I'll be going to uni, then that'll be done too and I'll be faced with the prospect of finding a job and leaving the security of my casual job and schoolwork, the ever-repeating cycle.  I still find it hard to believe I'll be turning 16 soon.  The magical number - I'll be able to get my learner's license and start to drive and work towards P plates and so much else.

I need to write some more or I'll go nuts.  I have too many words in my head right now.  And finishing cleaning off my bed before bedtime might be a good idea, too.  So, signing off for now.

Back again.

I'm back!  I didn't suffer too much while we were away.  I only banged my knee once and got given the heebie-jeebies when Aaron, my brother, wouldn't stop bounding over the granite rocks.  Other than that, it was okay.  Mostly it rained, so we didn't do many walks.

I'm finally getting going on 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' again.  I will finish it one day.  Hopefully.  Maybe one day I'll actually get enough motivation to do up a yearly planner as well, on which books I want to outline and write this year.  Last year was easy - I had tons of then ready to go.  But this year I'm down last year's ideas and I'm gettin higher in school grades.  Sigh.  If only I didn't want to be anything academic.  Then I could get a job instead of finishing school.  I am truely nuts.
