Bleeding Out

This week is the home stretch. Tomorrow is the graduation ceremony. Friday I start my finals; english/history on that day (which I might flip out over if Economics is considered history and not an elective, 'cause then I have to take three finals on that day ಠ_ಠ). At least the last day of finals is math, which I didn't have to take this year, so that makes me happy. Still kinda biffed that I had to take a P.E. course again since I assumed I had gotten all the credits to meet the requirements this is all Grove's fault, I'm sure.

Bunny's "It Gets Better" video literally had me in tears. I didn't realize how much it would affect me, but the more Bunny was talking the more it seemed to strike a chord. It says a lot, I've never really cried over things such as that. It might be because I'm just now starting to search for an identity. Either way, Bunny's story was absolutely freeing.

I've decided to make a prequel to Pushing Daisies, the story for it has been buzzing in my head for a while. The skeleton of the storyline is all there, I just need to flesh it out. Usually things that stop me from carrying out a writing project is the beginning, which I always have trouble with. I was able to get a few satisfactory beginning paragraphs so this should hopefully go by easily. I have a feeling this prequel, however, will be as long if not longer than PD.

Bleeding Out by Imagine Dragons keeps replaying in my head. This band is a curse, I swear. XD

  1. Good luck with Finals!

    Bunny's video sunk in with me as well. Unlike those PSA's and media portrayals, her video was very human and personable. It's given me a lot to think about and consider.

    I love the line about how Steam Powered Giraffe is a way for the audience to escape from their troubles and doubts for just a little while.

    1. I like how Bunny highlighted that, too. SPG's music makes me nostalgic 'cause it's the kind of music my family used to sing at get-togethers when I was little. :)
