Slightly Less Than Productive

So it's dead week, which is supposed to mean that things are dead so we can all get ready for finals. But that's only what the professors want us to think. I personally think it's called "dead week" because by the end of it, we're all going to be dead. This week alone I have:

• 2 group projects-one for PR that hasn't been horrible and one for Communication Research that felt like a nightmare, but is slowly getting done. Both are due on Thursday.
• A Perspectives of Lit final-the professor decided to hold it this week instead of bogging us down during finals week. I still have 12 stories to review that I've been reading since the middle of March
• A paper to write about one of the most influential aspects of 19th Century lit for my Lit history class.
• And maybe catch up on some sleep. 

I'm really ready for this semester to be over. I've hit the point that I'm worn out, constantly tired, and have lost most of my desire to care. It's kinda funny how that works, because I know that come the middle of August, I'll be jumping for joy to come back. I think I just need a break.

I went and saw Titanic 3D with Jaycee on Saturday. In case you didn't know, Titanic is my absolute, hands down, favorite movie EVER!! Like seriously, there was a time that I used to watch it at least once a week. I can pretty much quote the whole film and known a bunch of random stuff about the making of it. My ultimate celebrity crush is Leo DiCaprio just because of that movie. To be honest, it was kind of an obsession for a while. 

So needless to say, I was pretty excited when I heard that it was being re-released. Seeing it in the theater, on the big screen, with surround sound was A-MAY-ZING!! I noticed things I've never seen before which was pretty cool. To make the experience even better, I got to introduce my best friend to it. Jaycee and I have been friends pretty much since the 3rd grade. Yet, in the past 10 years I have never had her watch it with me. Getting to share something you love with someone who doesn't know about it is a great feeling.

I'm being stupid and can't get this photo to upload. Click the link and check it out. I always wanted a pic with them.

I'm still waiting on the book. I called the publisher and they told me that the current wait time is between 12 and 16 weeks. So hopefully soon.

Among all of my school stress, I've really been thinking about my writing. The publisher is currently looking for clean romances, something I can do. I wrote a book last year that fits into that category, edited it, started rewriting it, and then quit so I could write RockStar. I've been thinking a lot about it, and a BIG part of me wants to pull it back out, rework it, and try to send it in. Writers always say you should write new things, but isn't writing supposed to be shared?? 

Anyway, here's my latest musical obsession. Hope you enjoy.
