Woodsmen tonight

[breakinglight11]

Sometimes I think my bosses forget I'm here. I'm very quiet, and I have the sort of job where I can't really know what needs to be done unless somebody tells me, so occasionally they ask where I am when I'm sitting at my desk, or they start doing stuff they would normally give to me until they notice and remember that I'm there.

Woodsmen runs tonight. I am incredibly excited, but also nervous. I spent most of today going over my mod to make everything is what I want it to be, as well as poring over my extensive, laboriously-taken notes on the World of Darkness combat system. I hope it's good. I think it will be, but I really have no idea how it's going to play. I have a much better feel for how larping works than tabletopping, due probably to my greater interest and experience. Jared has very kindly offered to be spoiled on it if it doesn't go well so he can help me fix it, but hopefully that won't be necessary. My writing is my point of deepest pride, (yes, before you ask, even more so than my stomach :-P) so I'm especially invested in my writing projects going well. Ah, well. At the very least, it will be a learning experience for my budding GM skills.

Speaking of writing projects, today I also prepared submissions for consideration to get into one of two poetry seminars for this coming semester. I need one more writing workshop to fulfill the requirements for the English-Creative Writing double major I'm going for. Unfortunately, my poetry is my writing's weakest point. It wasn't easy going through my body of poetical work searching for stuff that wasn't either sucky or emo. Again, since I feel my writing is my greatest ability, I want what I produce to turn out well. I found about enough to fill six pages, so I went with that. Eh, maybe the class will help me improve a little. Here's hoping I get in.

I have the same problem with my poetry. Well, at least my emo stuff has some sort of happy side to it. I need to get better at this stuff though if I want to write better song lyrics. Good luck on getting into one of the seminars~ ^_^ Whatever the secret is to being good at this kind of stuff is still a mystery to me.

Good luck with the writing workshop. I've been there (and will be again).
