Another Birthday · 6:34pm Jan 26th, 2017
[Sorry the date's wrong, but this is how i feel about my birthday compared to what the rest of my life is doing around me; causing more shit for me...]
Another day, another number to add to myself.
Hey guys, Kablam Pony here again as another birthday passes me by on one of the most inconvenient days of the week, Thursday. I guess I should give an update on what’s been going on in the work shop and what are my plans right now.
But first, how was everyone’s New Year’s? Everyone stay safe? What kind of resolutions did you set for yourselves? I’ll tell you how mine went: drunk at home while playing D&D with a group of friends and having glorious blood bath of a game in Brutal Doom on the side! Hahhh, it was beautiful; bodies and body parts littered the floor at my feet while blood literally rained down from the ceiling! I was, in every sense of the phrase, knee deep in the dead. It was wonderful…!
Anyways, back on track, what do I have planned for the story ‘The Games We are Forced to Play’? Well as part of my new year’s resolution, I want to get back into the semi-followed schedule of getting at least one chapter out per month; or within a 30-31 day period, -ish. I would like to start getting the story completed a little bit faster so I can start on other story ideas started, but quality (and by quality, I mean arguing with editors and waiting for responses from them, lol!) takes time and I don’t want to rush the rest of the story to get it done faster; I still want to give it my all on it.
There’s no guarantee that I will be able to follow this schedule to the dot as life and school still take first priority, but I will try my best to do so (and hopefully not burn myself out in the process).
As for the rest of life, I’ve only been back at job corps for the past 2-3 weeks and I already want to:
A: kill myself
B: quit
C: go back home
D: go back to working again
E: all of the above
If you picked answer E, then go get a cookie (and could you bring me back one, too?). I’ve got at least four auto students predicted to fail out or quit, and we already have two of those predictions come true. I’ve got another 16 year old nursing student who is acting like a self-entitled, little shit and our dorm leader’s way of playing nice with him has failed; so its fallen to me to finally, nail his ass to a table and force him to be accountable to his responsibilities. But hopefully he will be out very, very soon; in fact, I am expecting him to be kicked out by the end of this month. We’ll see what happens in the next couple of weeks.
School is butt-fuck easy right now, but intro psychology is testing my patience. Our teacher bores on for 50 minutes on information we read over a week ago, and she loooves to talk about sex with it all. You would think I might be in a sex-ed class with a little bit of psychology sprinkled on for some extra flavor, but no; and our, doctorate instructor, does not help make the class any more enjoyable.
Sorry, I’m complaining. I’ll stop now; but its been a little difficult to get a decent night sleep right now. Anyways, I’ll hopefully get that next chapter out soon, possibly sometime in February, and we can finally get into the matches.
I’ll see you all in the next chapter.
You you can always say that you have managed to stave off the reaper one more year and that you hope to do the same for the fowling one, without risking falling into her clutches too soon.
4397865 well right now, I think it would be closer to say 'I held back enough to not kill some idiot yet before I finish my degree'. But after that, yeah I would totally agree once I get back on the bike and start riding again and trying to race.
