Trips and papers
I find myself very unusual; my mood changes with the weather in Greencastle (maybe even more unpredictable); My writing inspiration is based on my mood =)
There are times when I am conscious of my homework, sit down, and put my books and laptop on the table, but my head is almost empty. Plans to write a memoir or a blog are often delayed. It's not because I'm busy; it's not because I'm so giddy and forget about my writing; I simply have nothing to write. I have tried to follow the advice of English professors and the guidance of seniors (so-called tips): go for a walk, talk to friends, change study place, Julian lab room, libraries, student union building, etc. I must also admit that the things I was suggested to do helped me create a lot of good content for my paper, especially discussing with my professor about my paper. But what about the days when I can't see the professor, all my favorite places are locked, what will happen to my writing?
From the first time I read the syllybus of the classes, I was really surprised that there were so many days off in a semester. I was worried whether the knowledge I was taught would soak into my head. And then Fall break - my first long break - came. My group of 5 friends had 1 Indianapolis trip for 4 days. Initially I was wondering about 1 week time and 2 essays. What I imagine for a 4-day trip to visit and try local cuisine; but everything happened that I fell in love with the cozy rented house and comfortable little attic where I stayed during the whole trip. So I spent four days in my attic; I have completed 2 essays of 2 English classes. I even wished I could write more while staying in that rented house. "Maybe this will be the only time I find a place that suits me like that" - I thought at the moment.



Keep writing, Anna!
