Continuing dark until morning. anthora 2006-01-24T02:36:45Z urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:anthora:741 2006-01-24T02:34:47Z 2006-01-24T02:36:45Z Meh, I don't really know what to say. At the moment - since I'm not really connected with anybody, and the odds of someone stumbling on me and staying long enough to read are minuscule in the extreme - this really is like a private journal, and I've certainly never known what to do with those. This is not, perhaps, the best way to avoid finishing my biology reading.<br /><br />Ah, well what the hey! It's not like I'll have anything really interesting for anyone to see until I better my relationship with some scanner of my acquaintance and put some art up. I've actually been meaning to do that for a while, right up there with looking for some art challenge communities to join. I need some sort of excuse to draw now that it's a new semester and my drawing course is done. I have observed in myself a truly reprehensible tendency toward laziness of late; much enormous enjoyment has been found in the versatile world of fan fiction, but I haven't made any move towards contributing.<br /><br />This is apparently a night for surprises, though, given that it's been what, two months or so? since I put anything in here. I might find myself a member of an art community in a fit of anthropology avoidance later tonight.<br /><br />Of course, now I've rather depressed myself by pressing spell check and re-affirmed the fact that I really can't spell. I might try working on my story in defiance instead - there is no spell check on notebook paper! urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:anthora:312 2005-11-09T00:12:01Z 2005-11-09T00:12:01Z nothing but the traffic - time to put the headphones on. Hallo, anybody and everybody.<br /><br />On the off chance that someone actually stumbles on this, I thought I'd at least post a little intro blurb. Well, it was _going_ to be little.<br /><br />I'm a _very_ new user here, and I'm in school, so there will be precious little here for a while. With luck I'll have time over break to make this more interesting. We shall see. In the meantime, like it in my profile, I like reading (mostly for escapism - lots of fantasy/sci-fi, though I'm branching into other stuff too), painting, drawing (except trees. I can't seem to do trees. And hands.), writing (I don't work on my original stuff often enough, but I do like it), editing (though I haven't had that much experience. Still, what a dream job - reading and getting paid for it!), letter (yup - still employ snail mail. What can I say? I like it when my mailbox has interesting things rather than advertisements.), and plants (though I don't know all that much about them yet, and may decide I hate them after taking two classes on them next semester.). And this feels extremely long for a first post, so I'll end it here. If people are interested, comment and I'll blather on some more. If not, well, I'll see what I can do about making things more interesting come Thanksgiving break.
