Dear everyone,

These past few weeks have been busier than everything else. I'm working on editing my novel, and then doing my finals, doing regular homework, cleaning/clearing out my room, finishing a writing portfolio, as well as trying to have fun and seeing people's performances. It's been a good month, probably one of my favorites all year, but also one of the most stressful. I'm not letting that get the better of me, though. I'm pulling through these final two weeks of school whether I like them or not.

Last Saturday, the pool was open from 2-7 and I was swimming for basically the whole time. It's gonna open again tomorrow and I'm really looking forward to that! I love that feeling of flight. For the past couple of weeks, the creative writers have been having a ton of field trips. Sunday marks the third one in two weeks, and the fourth one all year (first being in November or something like that). I really enjoy them, actually, and even though we got back at one in the morning from the last trip, they've been exciting adventures and I've gotten to know my department since, you know, we're stuck in a car for two hours up and down the mountain

I'm going home soon! I'm very very very excited!! I can't wait to see everyone and just relax or have a job or whatever is going to happen. I'm also thinking about selling some stories... like, with a certain page number or... I don't know. Maybe like this:

1 page = $5
2 pages = $5
3 pages = $5
4 pages = $8
5 pages = $10
+1page = +$1
Over 15 pages = $25+2x, x being the number of pages?

I don't know! I think that's too much complicated math because I hate math, and yeah. Also it seems rather expensive to me, but in all honesty it's very hard to write just one page, even with a poem, and it's also pretty difficult to get past eleven or twelve. I think I'd rather have five pages cheaper than one page.

Okay, well, I'll figure it out when I figure it out. For now, I've got too much school writing on my mind to even think about this anymore! Thank you for bearing with me.

Love,
Callie
