Time for an Update?

I guess so. Hmmm...

Two weeks until graduation. Yeah, seriously. I'M SO EXCITED. I can't wait to start at Temple and be away from petty drama. I can't wait to not tutor smart-ass seventh graders anymore + I REALLY want to move on.

I've been crazy happy lately. I think FINALLY writing "Route 61" has helped. That idea had been bugging me for a good four weeks, and now that it's out here I feel pretty good. I love the concept of it. I just love it in general. For real. + I LOVE THAT I HAVE READERS. Thanks to all the cool people who have emailed me + told me that they liked my work. You seriously have no clue how much it means.

Anyway, I'm so chill, it's amazing. I guess I'm feeling TOO good. Like I almost need something to go wrong. Not like I want it to.

OH BTW. Song of the week IS:
"Weeping" -- Josh Groban

I knew a man who lived in fear
It was huge, it was angry,
It was drawing near.
Behind his house a secret place
Was the shadow of the demon
He could never face.

He built a wall of steel and flame
And men with guns to keep it tame
Then standing back he made it plain
That the nightmare would never ever rise again
But the fear and the fire and the guns remain.

It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow
He tells the world that it's sleeping
But as the night came round I heard
It slowly sound
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping.

And then one day the neighbors came
They were curious to know about the smoke and flame
They stood around outside the wall
But of course there was nothing to be heard at all
"My friends," he said, "We've reached our goal
The threat is under firm control
As long as peace and order reign
I'll be damned if I can see a reason to explain
Why the fear and the fire and the guns remain."

It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow
He tells the world that it's sleeping
But as the night came round I heard
It slowly sound
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping.

Say ah, say ah, say ah
Say ah, say ah, say ah

It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow
It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow

It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow
He tells the world that it's sleeping
But as the night came round I heard
It slowly sound
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping.

Say ah, say ah, say ah
Say ah, say ah, say ah
