english-grad's Diary - Beyond the Blue Ridge Mountains

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Speechless.

I have an overcoming desire to write. I want to say something.

I've started writing my seminar papers. I've started revising papers. I've started on the last of my Harner's questions. I have been writing. I still find myself desiring to express myself besides writing literature analysis.

I used to write poetry when I was in high school. I wrote a lot. Some were good. Others not as good. However, it was a great form of self expression. I wrote whatever I felt regardless of other opinions. I miss that feeling of freedom from my own censorship. I think that in the coming weeks as I slave over my seminar papers, I'll try to get back in to writing poetry.

In other aspects of my life, I was unproductive today, which was probably needed. I find myself being lazy tonight while reading Elizabeth Incbald's A Simple Story and The Laramie Project. I'll sleep in tomorrow and be the good little grad student working on homework. Tonight, I just want to relish the part of me seperate of the grad student.

I might read my old journal entries. I might read passages of my favorite books. I might just write that poem that's been an inkling in my mind for this week.
