usullusaHome is the least conducive place to do work EVER. I now remember why I was perpetually on the verge of having a mental breakdown in high school. Because I am completely incapable of getting anything done at home and I still insist on getting As despite this fact.
Oh well. I am trudging through my final research paper and managing to avoid most distractions. We'll see how long that lasts.
I also have had a story brewing in my head for the better part of a month and now I'm starting to get the itch to write it but 1. I think I need to sit on it some more 2. I need the time to actually write. I just spurt out random sentences I know fit into the story somewhere and scribble them down and hope I come back to the idea at some point. Bleh, I can't wait until winter break... except I will inevitably not write anything anyway. I will just play Kingdom Hearts until my brain explodes.
Also I got the preliminary sketch of the second commission of Iarris and Ryile and it makes me unbearably happy. Apart from the part where Iarris looks like a cross between Sirius Black and Aragorn, which is oh so very wrong, but all shall be fixed.
I'm actually excited about going back to school tomorrow because it means I get to go Christmas present hunting. Last week I found this gorgeous necklace of silk and river pearls I want to give my mother (and then be oh so very broke, but I'm so sure she'll love it) for her birthday so I'm hoping it's still there. And I love thinking up character related presents for Steph, which has become something of a tradition for us. So yes, am excited.
Right-o. Back to paper. I guess this ended up being my distraction.
