I promise I'm not dead....

Hey ya'll

It's been a while since I last posted anything. I guess things have just been going crazy around here lately. Trying to keep up with school, two jobs, and somehow manage to sleep (ok, so I get more than enough sleep, but sometimes it's really hard to convince myself to actually go to bed.)

Figured I'd just give you a little update on the book. I've been getting a lot of questions about it lately. If you remember from a few posts back, the publishing company's website said it takes around 8 weeks to get a response, but sometimes longer. Well, we're on the longer end of things. Last Friday marked 8 weeks since I sent it out and I have yet to hear anything. My mom thinks I should call them, but I don't want to to seem like that needy, desperate chick and bug them about it. IDK what to do with it. From the get go I was like "if it's meant to happen, it will" but I don't think I can live by that anymore. I need it to happen for reasons that I can't even explain to myself.

So yeah, just waiting and waiting. It seems like I'm waiting for everything lately. Waiting to find out about the book. Waiting for it to get warmer. Waiting for school to be done. Waiting to graduate. Waiting to find a real job. Waiting for "Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection" to come out (Monday. It will be here Monday!) Waiting sucks!!

I started working on a new project last night. I love the feeling of getting to know new characters, but the struggle of introducing everything and everyone is rough. I wish I could just skip to the middle and work from there, but I can't. I've thought a lot lately about pulling out "D+K" from last year and re-working through it, but I'm tired of those characters. I feel like I told their story (three times mind you, through edits) but every now and then I think of them.

Kinda expounded my playlist a bit lately. Listened to a little bit of Lana Del Rey (not a huge fan, but I'll give her props for doing something different), decided I want to marry Baptiste Giabiconi. He's French, sings and models. Best combination in the world!! And today I just discovered M83. I don't know how to classify them, but I really like it. Check out "Midnight City", probably my favorite so far.

Anyway, I think I've prattled on long enough. Smile!!
