Let's call this procrastination

Procrastinating on a paper about a creepy suburb of my major city in which I lives.

I found this over on Alicia Blade's Livejournal: The Holiday Wishes MemeStep One- Make a post (public, friends locked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a Snape/Hermione icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.- If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.- Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ, or link to this post (it'll be public) so that the holiday joy will spread.

Step Two- Surf around your friendslist (or friends friends, or just random journals, or [info]holiday_wishes) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part:- If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.

In other news I'm in a play my boyfriend is my father and in the script there is a spanking scene... Yeah, and I thought kissing for one minute and twenty seconds was awkward. My part is small, Louise in The Imaginary Invalid, and I was initially disappointed but then I realized out of the 4 girls cast I am probably the youngest and I also look the youngest. Which hey that'll be good if I still look the youngest when I'm 40. I'm playing a little girl. It's weird.

I'm not watching any of my shows tonight, I'm "working". Seriously though, I have been working hard. Mostly. It took me a while to get going. The teachers have given little to no direction and I'm scared shitless after my last paper. I know some of it had nothing to do with this kind of paper but still scared shitless. I've never had writer's block this bad. My boyfriend wrote my thesis statement and has basically helped me through my planning stages. So now all I have to do is write it and pray that it's good enough. Thankfully tommorow is only a rough draft AND I have study right before the class. YAY! The bad news is the final draft is due.......... On my Birthday. &)$&*^$#^&$%&!

Ooh I almost forgot TWILIGHT FRIDAY!!!!!!!!! Can't wait. Homecoming on Saturday, should be interesting.... Sunday maybe see Collin's show again 'cuz I'm just that nice. Wait I think I have rehearsal, lemme check..... Doesn't say. Oh well, maybe I don't have to see it again. It wasn't bad. I'm just biased.
