ugh
I am in a terrifically foul mood and am ducking online to inform the world of said foulness, because that is what one does. Not even my entire Vienna Teng playlist has been able to alleviate this foulness. THIS IS SERIOUS, FOLKS.
I am off to: wash the dishes, read two articles on malaria, two on ecology & vision science and six on health psychology, and then re-attack the microbiology assignment from hell.
However, at a certain hour of the night my brain flat-out refuses to apply itself to academia, and I'd like to do some writing. Because the words have been spiking and pressing in my mind lately to the extent that I am tuning out in lectures with dangerous regularity, and I'd like to let off some gas. As it were.
For some reason I have become wildly enamoured with the idea of Shakespearean meta-poetry (as evidenced by yesterday's post), and sonnets are pretty much a rapid and failsafe way for me to scratch the writing itch without getting caught up in narrative or devoting too much time to any project.
Soooo. Give me a character* (anyone but Miranda - I have the skeleton of a sestina in my notebook, and I'd rather keep the ideas fresh) and I'll give it a bash :)
(If you'd also like to give me something - a song, a picture, an icon, a link, anything - that is good for the soothing of academic frustration, that would be much appreciated.)
*They don't have to be Shakespearean, I suppose. Fanfic sonnets for all! Booyah.
