Me again...

Thu Sep 24, 2009, 12:26 PM
  • Mood: Crazy
That's right, ladies and gentlemen, I'm still here and, after a long yet hasty holiday, I have successfully achieved very little more than a good rest. I admit complacency and I know I will face the consequences soon enough when I am thrown back into the grips of academia (though these talons are from a different vulture). Not only am I preparing for a new stint of literature based trouble, but I have also got to face up to the brave new world that is independent single living. I'm out on my own in a wasteland of drunkards, strangers and, worse, intellectuals.
The change of scenery may do me good, or kill me. Probably both. Nevertheless, I find myself torn between absolute petrified apprehension and an inquisitive exhilaration.

In other news...I haven't written much either, though that is not to say that I don't have ideas to work with. The problem, of course, is that I cannot return to the daily grind as per say, as the entire grind is changing. Only once I have settled into a new regime of absolute chaos can I trust myself to commit to anything new, or continue with the old. I fear a mix of laziness and distraction would prevent any projects from really taking off before then.

It's all change and I need a note.

I promise to settle as soon as I can and hopefully find the opportunity to do something creative for you all to sneer at contemptuously. Until then, we must be patient

Oh, and amidst all that incoherent rambling, one may have recognised the fact that I must have received some form of result to be speaking of University. Simply, AAB.
Of course, in the competitive nature of secondary school league tables, they intend to try and sneak that B up to an A for me. Honestly, I can't say I care one way or other. I'm in, and that's all that counts as far as I'm concerned. These last two years are already slipping into the hazy memory of fond trivialities and forgotten knowledge.
If one truly cares to know, my total earning was AABBba* and 3 OU Passes.
It's all nonsense to me, too.

Fondness to all.

You have some really great poems up! I really enjoyed reading them! It's like they were heavy and intelligent, but light and easy to read at the same time! A very rare quality..
Once I have time I will totally read your other work! :)
:iconthoran-storyteller:
Well that's incredibly kind of you.
I shall be sure to return the favour, in due course.
It is always a pleasure to make new acquaintances here.

Thank you.

Thanks for the watch and for taking the critique well :) I went to a creative writing workshop at Stanford University a couple of years ago, and was often given the same advice I gave you about using imagery instead of blatant statements to make a point. That's why I said it ^^; Of course, if you prefer it the way it is, by all means keep it that way. It's your art, in the end,and should be made first and foremost for you.

On a side note, I find it fun that you're from the UK. It's nice to meet people from different countries. I went to the British School of Costa Rica all my life, so I spent a large portion of the last 13 years with Brits XD.

Constructive criticism encouraged. What do you like? What don't you? Most importantly, why? Don't be shy! I will try my best to reciprocate :) -RS
:iconthoran-storyteller:
Well, I have to say that I am excited about making a link to Costa Rica. One of the beauties of this site is its ability to connect people from anywhere and everywhere.
I shall bear your critique in mind for future work. I'm sure it shall serve me well.
Thank you and good luck with everything.

I am very bored :)
Is it just me, or does the moral highground really suck?

But it is highground, nonetheless.
It does have its advantages, however elusive they may be.

You seem to be doing ok. You've been able to submit, comment, favourite etc.
There's really very little more to it. The only other thing to do is browse and see what other madman artists you can befriend... but that's entirely up to you!
