Ooh, My Bad... *Sheepish Smile*

For some reason, this bloody page won't let me upload a picture today. And i had a really good one, too. *pout*

ANYWAY. I've been a bit naughty haven't I, saying i'd keep updating this, and then leaving it until August, and now its past bonfire night and i've been very elusive. So, i'd like to formally apologise for my lameness and promise to at least TRY to update this more often, but what can i say? University is demanding more and more of my time. Do they think i'm actually trying to get a degree or something?! Hurr.

So yeah. Back onto something more (or less, who knows) interesting, i seem to have gotten back into my fantasy hobbies of drawing. Unfortunately the book is on hold for now, too many essays have given me much less will to actually write any length of prose so i think i'm going to go hardcore writing over the holidays. Ideas keep changing and reformulating, so the sooner i get one DEFINITE idea down, the better. Its very... liquid, i guess? i can't pin it down apart from the characters who are already set in my head. Apart from my heroine, who i cant find a name for. I'm thinking something celtic/gaelic like Liath (Not that particular name because its been used, but something like it anyway). Heres an idea: submit your ideas to me any way you know how! I know that at least ONE of You will have an idea. *Villanous eyebrow-wiggle*

But apart from that, my renewed interest in all things supernatural and ethereal and so on and such forth, is proving to be a bit of a problem. Currently, i'm sat in Swansea University Library. I have my dissertation proposal minimised, as well as all the sources im interested in to help me. What i DO have open is the works of Jessica Galbreth, a seperate word document for lyrics for my new band, formed with my partner in crime, Owen 'Orpheus Man-Fairy' Francis, guitarist extraordinaire and Mark Tremonti's largest (bordering 'stalkerish') fan. All we need is a drummer and were set to record. So with music and literature in the works, maybe my degree is sort of null and void anyway. Yay for throwing £24,000 at nothing! Eugh.

But meanwhile, i DO have a degree to complete, and this A.D.H.D - like tendency to sit here going "oooh, look at the pretty wings!" isn't very conductive to the politics of the Parisi in the PRIA (Don't worry, you're not meant to know what this means, i'm not even sure i do). So while i'm quite content getting starry - eyed over sparkly pictures, my potential to get even a desmond is trickling away.

On a more doom-and-gloom note, things are getting rockier at university anyway. Conditions in my house have made things hard to tolerate and i often wonder whether its not worth just sacking it all in and leaving to concentrate on my creative skills. The only thing that does keep me going is knowing i have 6/7 months left before i'm free of education (and this horrible person) forever.

But all in all, things are going well. And next time i post something i'll do it with a particular description. I'm going through a 'i like Dante's Inferno' stage, so it'll maybe be all about this. Its very interesting, i assure you.

Again, sorry for being so shi.. ahem. BAD, at keeping updated. I have People on my bottom pushing me to write more often which is helping. Much love.
