A CHAPTER OF MY STORY IS AN EDITORS' CHOICE AT THE ONLINE WRITING WORKSHOP AND WILL BE IN THEIR NEWSLETTER.

I PEED. HARD.

I don't think that means that it's terrifically good or anything; perhaps the choices are random or perhaps I racked up enough crit points, or perhaps they looked at it and said, "Let's help her." Either way, this means tons more critiques and help for my story. Just when I was feeling frustrated that I wasn't getting anywhere, this came along. As my main character says in the chapter, "Thank you, universe." Haha! Could this be the start of an Unexpected Miracle? OH, DAMN. I just expected it. Suck!

In less "OMG NEW UNDERWEAR" news, I did get all the classes I wanted for next trimester, and I also got all the clinic hours that I wanted, too. That means that on Thursdays I'm going from 8:30 AM straight through to 7 PM totally without any breaks, though. But, it's only one day a week, and my only other class is on Monday. I get both my Kung Fu days back, and it's great having to go the over-hour-long drive only two days a week. I'll have to pack a lunch, but I'm pretty happy about next trimester.

Now, I only have to pass the clinic entrance exam and get first aid/cpr certified. I could do it at the school, but it's too expensive.

~~Eff school I am going to be a famous author starting tomorrow~~ Massage therapy is a pretty good job, seems like. And I can go on from there and continue with different medical studies, once I get my loans etc. paid off.

Sad: My beautiful orange swordtail Kenshin died today. Auwe. I liked his sweet little spirit. Also, yesterday my new teeny catfish Wufei died, too. So right now all I have is Leon/Jason, Lucrezia, Sephiefish, Onion, Kaoru, and Quatre Raberba Winner.

Happy: Emails from an old friend. ^_^

Oh! I remember what else. I started tutoring. I did my first session with Neurology yesterday. I hope that I helped her some. With neuro it's more a matter of understanding the material rather than memorizing it. My other two students are for Myology and Pathology. Myo is straight up dry memorization. Pathology is a little bit of both, at least the chapters we're on now. Technically I'm not supposed to be tutoring in Path yet since I'm still in it, but the school called me anyway and asked if I wouldn't mind giving it a shot. I'd be glad to, since that helps me learn, too. This all seriously cuts down on my "eating yummy food" time at school, but maybe that's not such a bad thing.

Last night after school I watched Samurai X (I'm over ten years late for that, I know,) found it a bit boring until the moment when Kenshin raspy-growls "KISAMAAAA" and goes Battosai on dat ass (I love Mayo Suzukaze, MWAH! MWAH!), ate over a pint of ice cream, and felt mild regret over the entire evening.

Today I: Cleaned the fish tanks, did nothing, did nothing, did nothing, started laundry, did nothing, PEED MY PANTS OVER THE EDITORS' CHOICE, and then made this entry.

Go, me.
