Day 28

(Warning: This post will contain a ton of randomness.)

It has been twenty-eight days since post-graduation.

That's sort of strange for me to think about. The days start to blur into one another. I feel like I've done quite a bit in that time frame, but at the same time, it doesn't feel like I've done enough. I guess that that is normal for me, though. Overestimating how much I can get done.

Anyway, a quick run-down of all that I've done:

*I've seen three movies in theatres.
*Completed six books (a total of about 1400 pages)
*Gone to Cedar Point for the day
*Planted flowers
*Caught some sort of bug/cold and I've been sick for ten days now (although, this is something that I'd rather not have happened)

...Okay, so the list doesn't look very impressive. There was a lot of little things that I've done around the house, but I figure that it would be pointless to list them on this blog.

I'm not going to put a list of things that I need to still get done because that is a rather long list. Basically, a majority of it boils down to: clean/organize rooms around the house, face fears, and figure out what I'm going to do for the rest of my life.

That doesn't sound too hard. Right??

Although, you should see my basement. It could easily fall under "face fears" with all the junk piled everywhere and cobwebs coating the windows.

Randomness: Last Friday, I finally pulled myself together and got back into writing creatively. It had been almost two months since I last wrote something and I think it took me a whole week of staring at a blank word document before I finally got the courage to fill it with words.

I wrote a fantasy short story. (I love writing short stories, by the way. Although they could almost be viewed as "super short stories" because they tend to be under 5,000 words.) I think I'm on some sort of fantasy kick. Although, a part of me still wants to write something more contemporary. But alas, I do not have any storyline. I do have a particular character that has emerged, but I have no idea how to use her.

I don't write many contemporary stories. I either get bored of them halfway through or they start twisting into dystopian territory. Maybe this says something on how I view life?
