What's one thing you regret doing, or not doing?
Submitted by ashleyy.
my regret or regrets for that matter are simple; I regret not taking more risks. I'm not talking about jumping of a plane type of "risk" the risks you take with life, with people. Not big regrets, simple things. Its silly but for example not talking to a certain person or being honest with them. Things like that. I regret not having enough courage to do those things that I deeply wanted to do.
I know people say " don't dwell in the past. what's done is done." And honestly I don't. It just when you look back on your life you can't help but wonder what you're life would have been like if you did that one thing. If you would have a better life. On the other hand (though it seems cheesy) I am thankful for these regrets because I have learned from them, in a sense? I know now that there are somethings that you just have to do. period.
winter is still here, and we have another snow day to prove it. thats two in the last week. At this rate nothing will get done. and oddly i'm okay with that.
yesterday was pretty interesting. I recieved my letter/short story from the institute of childrens literature. She said with a little touching up, and a change of the tense it could possibly be a marketable piece. I am excited for that. So soon I will have to create a cover letter or a query. I'm really excited. I'm nearing the end and truthfully i'm going to miss it, but also happy that I can start another part in my life. Well maybe i'm getting ahead of myself. But it's been a dream of mine to have something published. Throughout this course i've learned to respect the art of writing more. There's alot more work involved in creating a suitable manuscript. I hope that I soon accomplish my dream. I really am excited though, but if not, it was great while it lasted.
You know those days that you have so much to say but you don't know where to begin, or how to do it. Its exactly what today feels like for me. Honestly. So much going through my head right now. I just thankful for the good things you know? They can so easily be taken away, but it's not good to assume they will. Believe me I've done that. I guess what i'm trying to say is thanks.
that is suffice.

get it? hahah.
well then; today was to say the least an interesting day. well somewhat. today is January February 4th 2008. Today was the first day of second semester or second if you count the snow day.
schedule: 1) anthropology
2) 16th century history
3) english
4) french.
anthro: it's not as bad as i thought it would be. I might be jumping the gun here, since there are "questionable" people but the course itself is summed up in this word; interesting.
history: well i pretty much don't know anything about that as my diagnostic test proves. but the teacher's nice and im looking forward to the Renaissance period. ( whatever that is)
english: ack! two words: seating plan. that would be okay if a) it weren't alphabetized and b) if i actually talked to people there
french: one guy. haha. bonjour mon amis.
LUNCH: sucks. ahaha.
it'll be fine. I'm an optimist, and im breaking out of my shell. (right?)
