I'm playing catch up with my Screnzy. I only have 44 pages so far (according to Screnzy's official counter) so I have a long way to go in just over a week. I hope I can get it done. *crosses fingers*

I got a new library card yesterday. I had lost mine from when I was a wee little one, and I had been afraid that I wouldn't be able to get another one because I have a little issue with returning the library's books. Once I've got my greedy little hands on a book, I don't want to let it go!

I have a paper that's due Monday that I haven't even started. :\ I just haven't been feeling well again, and it's hard for me to work when I feel all gross like this. It really sucks because I'll have these short spurts where I feel great and can get a bunch of work done, but after a short while I feel bad again and can't get anything done. It's quite a counter-productive cycle.

I'm also a bit discouraged by my Screnzy because I've realized that I write scripts like a novelist rather than a screenplay writer. It's made it difficult to write, because I keep getting stuck not knowing what to do or how to do something in the proper format and I don't want to cheat or anything.

I really think this burst of melancholy has just been triggered by my being sick again though. I've got a doctor's appointment on the thirtieth, but I haven't even bothered getting my hopes up this time. I'm pretty sure that I'm just going to hear the same thing. Doctor's see a college-aged girl and they assume that everything is just hormones and emotions. I just have this feeling that something more is wrong, but they don't want to take me seriously. I've been emotional and hormonal, and this isn't what it feels like. It's frustrating the way they don't take me seriously. The nurses will listen to me, but when it comes to getting the opinion that matters, the doctors never care. They just want to get through me so they can move on to the next patient and get more money. It seems as if I'm just being dismissed because they want to skip the harder case and move on to the easier ones that they can run through so they can rake in the cash. All of those doctors I see on tv or hear about who genuinely care enough about their patients to stop and listen and do serious research and find out what's wrong don't seem to exist in Houston.

Right now I'm just trying to get through Screnzy. If I can finish this, I think it'll get my spirits up.

I've got a recitation today in Astronomy, and I've only been able to comprehend half of the problems she assigned. Luckily, we've also got our debate today, so I'm going to try to stretch that one out a bit.

Also, I updated my Summer Reading List.
