cherry blossoms

the roads are lined with cherry blossoms right now,

creating a beautiful pink path.

But soon,

it will all be over,

as cherry blossoms only stay in full bloom for a short time.

Today, it feels like we’re in the middle of spring.

The cherry blossoms are starting to fall, and the roads are lightly pink with petals, but they’re no longer sparkling like before.

11.13.20

I shouldn't say the 13th seeing as my work is carrying over into the 14th, but oh well. There's about 3 weeks left in the semester, and as such, I have an obscene pile of work to get done. Looking forward to long nights and early mornings 😴 sike, actually looking forward to graduation in May, and then the next step, Russian Lit 😁

P.s. don't mind my messy desk please 😅 it's been a hectic semester

The Rules

Oh, man.

I found my Rules.

1)     Ass in the chair. Now. Leave everything else.

2)     The more you write, the better you get.

3)     It’s supposed to be messy. Tidy later.

4)     It’s supposed to be scary. Go there.

5)     Hone technique relentlessly till the Magic shows up.

6)     Writer’s block is the ego calling. Laugh at yourself.

7)     Pen and ink cultivate concision.

8)     Writing is a physical practice.

9)     Deadlines are like friendly jailers.

10)   Um, there are no rules.
