What I'm Reading:
At the moment, I'm reading You Are Mine by Janeal Falor, which I absolutely love, and The Selection by Kiera Cass. There's been so much hubbub online about The Selection that I knew I would be condemned to book nerd rejection if I didn't read it. I'm about one hundred pages into it and it's a bit slow, but I like it! It has a Bachelor and Hunger Games kind of feel to it.
What I'm Writing:
A slew of notes on Othello for AP Literature. Not a big fan, but it was written a while back, so no judging here.
I was working on a project, but because of my non-committed nature, the file has been waiting to be finished for about a month. There's a possibility I might get back to work on it, but not anytime soon, what with school and all the wonderful things it brings along with it *sarcastic voice*
What Else I've Been Up To:
My week has consisted wholly of homework and reading. Wow, I'm such a fun person! *sarcasm* I'm definitely not one to go out and party like many other teenagers, but it's fine. Life's good when it's filled up with reading, right? Right. :)
What Inspires Me Right Now:
Hmmm, Kings of Leon and T.S. Eliot.
I've been obsessed with Kings of Leon's album, Come Around Sundown. It's so mellow and perfect and reflective. Calming alternative music is my thing, so Come Around Sundown is right up my alley.
T.S. Eliot's poem The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock is one of my favorites, and I've recited it a couple of times this week. If you haven't read it, I strongly recommend it! It's all about love, lust, self-reflection, self-worth, an unaware woman, and a man in love. It's perfect and lyrical.
What's up on your Wednesday?
I read THE SELECTION and it's sequel THE ELITE and enjoyed them both, despite some things that I wish were better. It's unfortunate that the show never ended up being picked up. Ah well. I hope you're able to get back to your writing sometime soon, but I can well imagine how tough that would be with school! You are so right: Life *is* good when it's filled up with reading! Have a great week! :-)
