I've been to this particular beach several times over the years, and it amazes me how it hasn't changed much, compared to other places. There are few tourists, a lot of wildlife, and cold weather even in the middle of summer. Maybe that's part of the reason it seems somehow sheltered from the rest of the coastline, or even isolated in a different time. It's really one of the most perfect places I've seen.

Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:
Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever- Psalm 146: 5-6 (KJV)

^ One of the best random quotes ever. It's from Sherlock Holmes, too. :D
Speaking of whom, I ought to be writing my review of BBC's new "Sherlock" TV series, which we finished watching just recently. But actually, I worked on something better today--I started my story for FicSwap 2010 at Wickfield. :) I've already passed the minimum word count, but I'm hoping to keep the story as short as possible, and not get too needlessly verbose as I often am. I'll try not to get too critical of my writing, either, as that can be a major source of writer's block for me. :P Anyway, I think it'll turn out pretty good. I used to write only short stories, so it's nice to be taking a break from writing novel-length stories.
Apart from that, there hasn't been much to blog about, lately. A lot of different projects (sewing, drawing, reading) have been on my mind. I wish I had some fast-paced classic lit to read, too. Any suggestions? :) I do plan to finish Monte Cristo, but I find it hard to read that kind of book during the school year.
