I just feel so busy at the moment, it’s like I’m drowning in stuff that I have to do! The drama practical exam on Wednesday has taken over completely, it feels like ages since I’ve written anything properly on my story and I’m itching to get back to it but I know I need to perfect this exam to give myself the best chance of getting an A on it, or at least a B! I also have a Psychology powerpoint to do, but that is nearly finished and can wait for the weekend to absolutely finish.
I’m so looking forwards to Wednesday afternoon – once the exam is finished, there’ll be no more work to do apart from a little bit in preparation for the self-evaluation Friday morning, and I can relax with my boyfriend and not be stressing about anything.
As for writing, I really am eager to get back into it. Finished a brilliant book today and it’s got me itching to get back and start writing, even if I can only do a couple of thousand words or something, it’d still be progress, and that’s what I really want to be making right now! One of the only benefits of doing revision/college work over writing is that I can listen to music with actual lyrics in it. When I write fiction, it has to be epic score type music, but if I’m writing out essays or just revising, I can actually listen to music with lyrics and everything. Currently, my “Wordy Music” playlist consists of –
- “Paradise” – Coldplay
- “Brighter Than The Sun” – Colbie Caillat
- “Somebody That I Used To Know” – Gotye ft. Kimbra
- “Everlasting Love” – Jamie Cullum
- “Lego House” – Ed Sheeran
- “Drunk” – Ed Sheeran
- “What Doesn’t Kill You” – Kelly Clarkson
- “Video Games” – Lana Del Rey
- “Last Friday Night” – Katy Perry
- “Skinny Love” – Birdy
- “A-Team” – Birdy’s version (I love Ed Sheeran’s, but Birdy’s has so much emotion in it!)
So, that was a little peek into my musical tastes! Approve, disapprove, I don’t really care – it helps me feel more productive with my work and also makes me feel a little more human, as opposed to a writing machine who listens to nothing but epic score on a loop in her head.
