nothing to say today. i've made like 10 bracelets since i've been here. now just to mail them out. i feel content doing that. productive. i suppose i could make some necklaces too.. i've been making earrings but they're not super great. haven't really gotten into the creative groove for that yet.

am reading midnight's children. i got all these lists of the western english speaking world's greatest books, and i'm going to try to count them off. classics and whatnot. i've read a few, mostly thanks to high school english class. but we shall see. they (obviously) don't read as fast as other books i've been reading.. also keeping a list of all the books i read this year. last year it was 83. since april this year it's been 5. it's funny, because it took me like a month to read shades of grey, and then i read the other 4 in the last couple of weeks.

next week i should go to the library. and the bookstore. pick up some more. I'm so antsy. impatient. to read and write more, and create. I love it. i've always felt this creative energy within and had urges to expel it, to use it, emote it, but have felt unable to... now I've just been doing it anyway. and it's okay. it works. it'll do. it'll get better :]
