Back to normal at last

So...after a week of moping about things finally started to get normal again. Now, I'm only suffering from boredom and the occasional sadness when I think of how much fun I had and that I'll never have that specific experience again..but then I must remember there will be others and they can only be better.

The rewards of being in this show are still arriving. SO many people who came to the show have told me how much they enjoyed it, how surprised they were with me, and how proffesional and entertaining the play was!! Someone even said "I forgot it was just kids acting." That makes me realize what a privelage it has been (and is) to be part of this group. I've been so unapreciative in the past and often I wish for more...but really this is better than I could ever have wanted and I am so proud to be part of this theatre group even though it won't make me "famous."

Although I recieved an "A" in Drama I am now hurrying to finish up social studies which I neglected quite a bit right before and during the show. The rest of the time all I do is watch Little House On The Prairie (about 6 episodes a day - a waste of time I know - but it still entertains me even though I've seen every episode at least twice), write my stories of course, and count the days until my birthday. Kind of silly too but it was just yesterday that I realized its exactly 3 months till my birthday - Wahoo!

Thats all for now.

PS - You will also notice that I changed the name of my blog. Why? because I think "Elizabeth" is more fitting as most people actually don't call me Lizzie.

Bored..so very bored..

Ever since last Monday when I finished Math and Science I have been SO BORED!! There is seriously nothing to do until I get my English and Socials Books. ( I'm on semester.) So I guess maybe that is why I've been blogging so much lately.

I've never really had this happen before. Like even if its Christmas Holiday, Spring Break or the Summer there is always something I COULD or SHOULD do. Even if I don't do it and just procrastinate the whole holiday I don't have that feeling that I don't have anything to do. So this is like the first time I can actually remember really having NOTHING to do!

I guess I really shouldn't be complaining since I would actually prefer being "underloaded" then overloaded with school. The annoying thing is that all my friends are busy doing schoolwork!! Its kind of funny though since its usually the other way around.

I suppose I could start on Info Tech but I really don't feel like that. In fact, I don't even know what I feel like doing. I actually want to write something. Something really, really good. Like a novel or at least a good start to one but nothing is working. Well, I sort of got a good lead last night but I don't feel like trying to write and being discouraged.

I am entering two writing contests...
The Royal Commenwealth Essay Contest http://www.rcsint.org/essay/
& The Young Writers Club's Postcard Story Contest http://youngwritersclub.homestead.com/Postcard_story_contest.html

I believe that both are open to youth up to age 18 so please check them out if you are interested!! (The Commenwealth Contest gives some nice prizes too :) that is not why I'm entering though! )

I guess that is all for now! Probably the most boring post I've ever written but I just can't think of anything interesting to say when I'm bored!!!

Ta-Ta!!
