I have two papers due this week, and I still have yet to start one of them. Honestly, I don't even know how I managed to get as much down on paper as I have today. I gave up on the idea of "being a writer" when I realized I would never get anything finished because of my anal retentive ways convincing me that what I liked while writing it, became shit by the time I read it over a few days later. I think I've also forgotten quite a bit of my once fairly impressive vocabulary. My ability to retain information has been failing me as of late.
Ugh. Back to the grind.

Busy bee
It has been a crazy week!
3 day drill
re-enlisting for another 6 years (! or ?- my thoughts on this keep changing)
brand new car is in the shop- again! (yes, this time I am sure)
psychology mid-term (a little disappointed in my grade, and miffed that detailed results aren't available to see what I did wrong)
750 word paper to write!!! (still have no idea what to write about)
just thinking about the fact that I have only LOOKED at the half dozen unfinished paintings sitting in my studio while I have spent every spare ounce of time and energy doing homework. ugh.
I was thinking of doing my English paper on painting (mainly to relieve some of my guilt) but there really is no process that I use. I have an object, I throw paint or some textured stuff on said object until it looks cool, then it usually sits around awhile until I find the right subject for the background, then I paint the subject. I don't know, maybe if I think about it enough I can figure out a way to use it. I miss painting, but I am so distracted with school right now that I just can't let myself get lost in it. Yes, I mean lost. When I paint, the rest of the world ceases to exist. I can spend an entire 14 hour session working on a piece without even realizing that I forgot to eat. An example of one of these days is a portrait I did for a friend a few months ago. While it was extremely fulfilling to do, and great surprising her with it, I no longer have the luxury of time these days. My homework won't do itself!
