Breakaway


I'm inspired. I've never been one to listen to loads of music, but when I was doing some homework my friend mention Kelly Clarkson's Breakaway. I've actually heard the song before, but I was probably too young to discern the lyrics form the music. So now I think I'm addicted to it.

So the first part is:

Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down

I'd just stare out my window

Dreaming of what could be

And if I'd end up happy

I would pray


Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out

Felt like no one could hear me

Wanted to belong here

But something felt so wrong here

So I'd pray

I could break away


I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly

I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
Make a wish, take a chance
Make a change, and break away
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk, take a chance

Make a change, and break away

It's very inspirational, don't you think? It's something I can relate to. Something else, as in Britney Spears' My Prerogative:
Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
Why don't they just let me live?
I don't need permission, make my own decisions
That's my prerogative
That's my prerogative

So, what I'm trying to say is = I feel rebellious.
Oh, and that picture on top? The "Breakaway" thing? It was supposed to be for a school project. A competition, really. I Photoshopped it. Entirely. Ugh. I wasted 5 hours on it.

Photoshop

All right. Maybe I hate Photoshop.

Maybe not. All my covers for Promised were made there. Still, it's the most frustrating computer software that I've seen, and I think I'm going to try out Inkscape or Paint Tool SAI soon.

Yeah. This time it's a like/hate relationship with a computer software.

Okay. I made the first two major changes in Promised. Yay! I'm not so afraid of that MS Word document any more!

Right now I'm going to stop looking at Promised, and focus on writing something else. Then after some time I'm going to go back and see what I'll do about the manuscript. I'm trying to get an outsider-type of view on it, as in I'm trying to read Promised like a normal reader. Which is not easy.

Still, I've recently become addicted to The Mortal Instruments and The Infernal Devices. Why did I not read them sooner? If you haven't read them, you simply have to! The storyline, the characters, everything is wonderful! And I've just finished Holly Black's Tithe, and I'm still confused about it. Ah. It's the holidays, which means that I'm going to indulge myself and read. I've already read... four books already. Meh. I still have about a week before school reopens.

So the project I'm currently writing is Heiress. Science-fiction/dystopia. Something new, anyway. I'll post more about it later, probably. I'm a procrastinator, yeah.

Ugh. I wonder if I'll ever be good enough for publishing...
