I'm so good at updating lately!

I got a new rat yesterday. After Marianne died, Talula seemed so confused and lonely. She just slept in her food bowl all day. I found this really pretty baby rat who's this pinky light beige color, and they became instant friends. In keeping with a theme, I named her Snow Cherry.

In other news, school is dragging. I'm not doing so well this semester, and I'm starting to feel bad about it. There have been a number of contributing factors, I suppose. Not caring, for one. Also someone was harassing me during midterms, and I've found myself in a sort of stressful situation at home lately. I won't go into that though. Anyone kind enough to read my journal must be spared as much bitching as possible.

Of course, all those reasons are just excuses. If I wanted, I could do better. I just choose not to. I guess I've been focusing on other things. Trying to get my book into good enough shape to get it published. Trying to write. Even working on applying to SG. My focuses are elsewhere now, and maybe that's as it should be.

I hope all is well with all who read this. Don't forget to vote, if you want to. I know the system is fucked and the candidates are fucked and the media is fucked and America is fucked, but right now, it's all we've got to work with. Me, I don't care enough not to vote.
