Hard to wrap my head around, but I will have my MLS in less than a month, and will have finished my classes in less than a week.
Wow.
Just one internet posting, two 3-5 page papers, and one big old final project between me and completion.
I have some serious senior exhaustion setting in - I'm lucky I have a driven group for the group project because they encourage me to stay immersed - without them I would probably have just slowed down a bit at this point. And of course I'm worried about jobs (finding one, not messing up my career, not over or underapplying myself) and living situation (finding an apartment, convincing them that they want to rent to us despite our imminent "unemployed due to moving to a new city and not being the kind of folks with jobs so fabulous we're pre-recruited" status).
My friends all seem to be going through a lot of chaotic stuff right now - another of those periodic "we're having an emotional growth spurt" maturations that seem to hit folks en masse.
In other news, I'm still working on my silly vampire novel. And I thought up a much more believable backstory for why a whole family of werewolves and a whole family of vampires are both stuck on the same tiny tiny Pacific island and have been for generations. This one is almost sort of plausible. See, the werewolves were exiled there a long time ago, and then the vampires were trying to make it to the new world but they ate all the sailors when the ship got becalmed en route, so this little island was as far as they got, and of course since they can't go out in the sun they can't sail themselves off the island...
Yahhhhh. But that's ok, because the silly kind of vampire romance novel doesn't have to be too believable as long as you like the characters. Who must be cute, cuddly, studly, and tormented (male) and cute, feisty, babely-but-doesn't-know-it, and like a friend you'd like to go to the bars with (female).
As soon as I finish school I can get more-to-work on this silly book. I like it.
