- Fall Break is coming to a close, which while sucky for most of BGSU, is a mixed blessing for me. I have until Friday to enjoy time off work, which means I'll still feel quite lazy throughout this week while my friends are all stressing over school. Of course, I should be stressing over school. I'm just not yet...
- In all of my time spent between friends and general social stress, I can heartily agree that I am at a point where relationships and relationship-type stuff (discussing, bickering, "what-ifs," etc.) simply does not interest me in the slightest. For every person in my life that makes it their life to find love, I have just as many friends who could care less about love. I've always straddled the middle fine-line, but I've been leaning more towards the "who the hell cares about relationships?" as of late. Maybe it's just a temporary feeling, but right now, that's my mindset.
- If you can completely agree with a friend to fulfill each of your secondary needs while dismissing your primary needs as irrelevant, would you dive in?
- I'm working on my next piece of fiction. If you read my short story, "I'd Rather Buy a Gallon of Gas" (currently being revised, by the way), then you will handily recognize my next short story. Now tentatively titled "State Route Thirty Five," it takes place in much of the same universe as the former piece. In an America (and ultimately, world) plagued by massive and expensive water shortages, I place my new story a year into a full-scale societal breakdown, and set it in a part of America rampant with sex, drugs, and desperate attempts to secure clean water. I don't expect to go too deep with it, but I am attempting to explore the objectification of women in such a societal situation. I can't wait to finish the first draft.
Out.
