Just wanted to let you all know that I’m cleaning up the site.
Obviously, I haven’t been here in quite a long time, which is because, really, I don’t know about my future direction here at DA. I’m compelled to leave it as is because this is where I started out as far as writing opinion essays (and, for a short while, doing my own art).
However, as this one psychologist on NPR put it, in one minute, you can have an innate drive to write books like crazy, continue for several months, and then, the next minute, that drive can all but disappear; that doesn’t necessarily make you a writer.
I discussed this a few weeks ago with Black-rat, who told me that, if I’m going to know how to draw, I’m going to have to practice as hard and long as I can, even after the drive has dwindled down to nil; otherwise, if I’m not serious about it, then it would have been better for me to not have tried at all.
So, in that case, I’m sorely hoping that my college roomate is an (furry or anime) artist, which brings me to another thing:
I’m going to college at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta.
I’ve already secured everything except for the immunization documents, after which I’ll be copletely ready for the orientation on July 15.
So if there are any Oglethorpe people at DA, I hope to meet you there in August.
Oh yeah, and a few weeks ago, we came back from the trip to Europe. It was great; we stayed in Wuerzburg for the most part, but we also went on a tour of inner-city Paris, which was fantastic.
Plus, Connie (the one in the Army) has finally moved back to Georgia (FOR GOOD!), but this time its Fort Benning in Columbus. She’s just secured her house, and Wanda (the one from Macon) has just moved in with her, since she’s looking for a job and house in the city area.
Thus, for the first time since late 2003, I finally have the whole house to myself (and Mom).
Just wanted to update you on what’s been happening with me, in case you are so lazy that you don’t even have the decency to visit my LJ blog!
To end this entry, it is possible that I may end up returning to DA and, if possible, take up art and writing once again, like the good old days of early last year. That is, if I can get that drive back when I start college.
Look for me in Atlanta!!!
