Just us and the autumn leaves.

I have found another love - yes, I do find them on a frequent basis - Margaret Atwood.
I can never define my story writing style, or who I aspire to write like, but she is it. I bought her book The Tent for my mother's birthday, and I have just read some of the stories. I seriously am obsessed with her writing.
And her writing inspires me to write, which is helpful, seeing as my major work is due in like 12 weeks, and I have only written 764 words....

I made my best friend a CD last night, and it made me feel nice, yet today I forgot to take it to school for her, which made me feel sad.

I also just found out that someone liked the same band as me, when I thought nobody had heard of them. Yay.

I feel like a robot. I have a one-track mind. School, and nice things. I don't seem to have room for much else, and sometimes the two meet, which is quite lovely and inspiring.

Carve my face apart and call me beautiful

I'm Lydia, a disorganised teenager, I'm searching for inspiration and fulfillment. I find inspiration, gorge myself on it, and throw it away.

I really want to be dedicated, to something, anything, everything. Good quotes are like green M&M's: rare, delicious, and they leave sweet remnants on you after being ingested.

Do you sometimes get scared that maybe you have a terrible illness or disease, and no one has told you? I do. I quite often get frightened of myself and my thoughts, they're so big I feel like i could explode.

I'm rambling, but that's how I roll.
