Last day of school

Posted on 09:42 by simmo
Which is why I'm hunched over my books, studying like I live and breathe vocabulary words.  Er, not (yet).  

I did do some math and Spanish review last night, and then I planned out my summer...attempted to, that is.  I have this horrid feeling that 3 1/2 months--however you slice and dice them--isn't enough time to rewrite a book and get it (self-)published.  But it's worth a try, if nothing else.

I have several sewing projects I'd like to work on, as well--costumes, doll outfits, summer clothes, semi-formal...  {Ok, so there's rather more than several.}  To those of you who sew, reading your blogs has been very inspiring!  :)

Also, I hope to set up a website dedicated to the "awareness" of obscure classic lit (yes, I'm an incurable geek), particularly Victorian classics.  So that's another project in the works.  And I'd like to get more practice using my tablet, for digital paintings and whatnot...

So if all goes as planned, ignore the last two paragraphs and you'll have my summer in a nutshell.  XD

UPDATE:  I just finished my last math test.  Ever. It's almost sad.
