where do we go from here? where to go...

I definitely made the right choice as far as college goes. I'm so happy I transferred. There's the occasional hour/day/whatever when I have my "I'm a failure" moment, but I'm trying to tell myself that no one really thinks that other than me. I really like my school, and the professors are amazing... they just know so much. Plus it's way cheaper than my old school was.

I've been trying to write, but I'm majorly stuck with my "novel" (not just exactly what it is just yet...) I'm at 87 pages and I have no clue what to do next. I'm also not sure how I should market it once it gets done... I'm thinking it's more young adult? Who knows. I'll concentrate on finishing it first. I'm also missing the abstract stuff I used to write, so maybe I'll try some of that soon.

Another episode of Toddlers and Tiaras is on tonight. I have never heard of Miss Georgia Spirit before, so this will be completely new for me. I was looking at the TV listings, and apparently an upcoming episode is called "The Chitlin' Strut." Um... what? Is that the name of the pageant? What is a chitlin', and how does it strut? Or are you supposed to strut *like* a chitlin'? I can strut with the best of them, but not like a chitlin'. Hmm... oh, but this is further incentive to finish my novelly-type thing, because it involves glitz pageants, and apparently those are popular right now... there's Toddlers and Tiaras, and Little Miss Perfect is starting soon, I believe (unless it started already... I don't even think I get that channel... oh well.) One of the cool things about all of these shows is that (I hope) if people get used to seeing pageants, they'll stop thinking of them as sick and weird and just think of them as a hobby that some people enjoy, like sports or dance or music. We'll see...
