Caught up.

I know I know, I'm aware of how many days it's been since writing. It's felt weird actually. I usually come on the computer and check this, to see if there's any comments (which I never have :p) but I seem to never have the time to catch up and write something down. I'm going to get into the habit of writing at least SOMETHING, anything at all. Even if I only have a few minutes.

Last time I wrote in here I was talking about James Patterson's books. And since then I've read two more (: snaps for me. I'm yet to start the third one I bought, I have to finish The Glass Castle first though, says mom. It's quite strange, but growing on me. We'll see. Anyways, summer's been lovely! To say the least. Spent last weekend in Pittsburgh, on the side of a mountain, and in the tiniest town [hardly] seen by the human eye. Took a run through Franklin Park, and across Washington Crossing. It was sort of cool, I guess. Saw lots of family which was nice and experienced some shitty weather on the backs of golf carts and ATV's.

I've realized that I need to find some things to waste (or take up) some time during these summer days. I can only extend my work out so much, and run errands for my mom. So I bought a cute-colored notebook-kind-of-thing at Barnes & Noble (the happiest place on earth, I wish I could work there, instead I work right next to it, convenient :]) and I've been trying my damnedest to start writing. Something that I've kind of always wanted to write, but I'm scared to start. I'm not sure where, or if, or how it will end, or begin, or keep up. I just don't know whether to try or not, I wouldn't want to embarrass myself, or...waste my time...or I don't even know.

I just want to say one thing, when I see people like Lauren Conrad? Or like, Sarah Palin? ...writing books just out of their asses? Like it's nothing, I find that to be bullshit. How does that make world-renowned writing look, those who spent years and years and years perfecting full-length novels to become best-sellers. And Lauren Conrad can whip one out of, literally, no where and get hundreds of copies on the shelves. Please...

Contemplating for now.
