21 July 2009, Tuesday
Hello everybody!
I'm finally back.
Usually after exams I'm often reticent. I spend all my time holed up... scared, nervous, fearful... waiting for my results. It makes me so sick that I become terribly nauseous. It's almost like waiting for a reply from an agent once you've submitted your work. You've done your best but your not sure of the results. It gnaws you and eats you up until your barely yourself, barely there.
It's an awful period of my life. And it occurs periodically.
I finally got my results and now I'm back on the ball. There's really nothing you can do about your results. Whether pass or fail, it's an unchangeable fact. If an agent rejects your story, there's nothing you can do but try again. Writing is hard. Submitting is hard. Just because you get rejected once does not mean that theres no hope left. You need to keep on trying and trying until you get there. 
I've treated myself to so many books once I got my results back. I went a bit crazy and bought twenty or so books. I really miss reading, it's a leisure I don't have anymore. I also have plans to get some writing done after I get all my assignments done... and finally, we are going to gold class to watch Harry Potter tonight! YAY!!
Truth is, I haven't been concentrating on my writing for quite a while. Specifically since I went back to uni. I don't think i will be writing much anymore. Not until I finish my studies.
