Meg Dowell Writes

I was going to take some time to put together a list of my favorite quotes, after watching this video and becoming overly inspired to do so. But I decided that I have too many other things I absolutely have to get done today, and blogging isn’t really one of them. So this is extra, just for you, even though it seems like all you care about lately is Simba. I’m in the dark here, guys.

I’m finally mailing four scholarships today. It’s a really good feeling to get them out of here. Honestly, I hate filling out scholarships more than I hate doing math. And I really don’t enjoy doing math most of the time. That leaves four more to send off before the end of April, not including the ones the guidance office just sent me. That was nice of them. I mean, I guess.

I finally got some writing done yesterday, though I’m still not quite finished with chapter sixteen. I’m aiming for 35,000 words before I leave sometime on Friday (gotta love the early April holidays), and I’m happy to say that I’m almost there. 31,588, to be exact. And no, I did not just go check.

There are post-it notes stuck to the edges of my monitor. They’re my to-do post-its. When I finish the task written on them, I get to peel them off, thus erasing the task from my mind. I think I’m going to drive myself insane if they’re up there much longer. They’re green and obnoxious and staring at me. Stop it!

Which means I should probably get some of this work done. A few surprises up my sleeve for tomorrow’s post. Be prepared.

Love&hugs, Meg♥
