This is the first of two posts I’ll post this evening. If you’re looking for the second one, then it’s probably above this one, so just scroll up.
So today I finished my last exam, which is something most of my fellow collegiates can say (“You’re already finished? Lucky!”). I feel that for my first exam week, I did very well. I’m very confident that I will get good grades on my exams and hopefully a high GPA. The day after tomorrow I’m heading to my dad’s place for vacation (it’s easier to commute to and from work from my dad’s place). I’m practicing for my sister’s bat mitzvah, and I’m going to see Trans-Siberian Orchestra in concert as well (that’s something I’m really looking forward to!).
Finally, I’m working on a new shorty story idea: although Ripple was rejected, the editor thought that one of the best parts of the story was that the story involved a really difficult choice. That got me thinking, and I realized that a lot of really good stories out there involve choices, really tough choices. So I’m running with that idea and doing some pretty obscure research (and I mean obscure. Like so obscure that I have to look for a specialist in England if I have any hope of looking for the info I need). Wish me luck, and happy winter vacation!
