Waiting On a Conclusion


I'm up late again writing for school. I've almost written too much and now have to go back and revise and get that tight, bright, compelling conclusion. I'm bleary eyed and can't even weed through the big mess of words this morning. I should just make myself a cup of warm almond milk and go to bed.

I've allowed grad school to take a toll on me these last couple of weeks. I'm cranky, tense, out of shape. I plan to take a long walk tomorrow, before I wind up stuck to this desk again. Three more weeks until my short summer break. In the meantime, I'm trying to keep my balance by breathing deep, taking some nice walks, and listening to lots and lots of music of all kinds. I hope I can do some drawing for a little while later today...maybe just get out some markers and sketch a few spring flowers. Any step in a creative direction feels like the right move.
