Winter Break Approaches

One more week, and no more school for a while. This is a break most students deserve for not having murdered a teacher and for not having run away after the frightful administration of the report cards. My principal keeps talking about college, about the SATs, about preparing. All this talking gets students nervous. Is it really that hard to get in? Well, I guess I'll find out soon? As for getting a book published, I've decided to try and write a story that'll please my parents && the general public (though i doubt the general public wants to read it?). Now, just to write it. So far i've got about 7 pages? Eep. <3

New Goal: Befriend Someone

Listening to: The wind outside.
Feeling: ambitious
It's windy again. I was doing my community service at the library and my friend came to see me =) She read me a short story from this random book and we discussed how cute this one guy was that worked there. Then on our way back home, the wind practically blew us away. It's really strong and I'm starting to wonder why it only happens on the weekends. But you can hear it beating against the building, trying to rip it away from its foundation. I hope it doesn't succeed... I need to start writing again. I really want to publish something, but the fact that it has to pass by my parents in order to hit the shelves really bothers me. It's really hard to write something they like, unless I write a kiddie book where everyone lives happily ever after. Which so isn't my style. I'm doomed =) Any suggestions? <3

Buttered Popcorn & Wailing Wind

Feeling: alone
The first entry is always the hardest. It's the introduction, what you're going to be judged by. So you start to worry about what to say, how to say it, if you should say it. I need to see my friends more often. I need to find myself a social life. And more popcorn... So um. hi? I'm Faten. And it's way too windy outside today. <3
