First Day

Hey everyone! It's that time of the year again: Camp NaNoWriMo!
And I'll be going at Nellie 4 again, one last time... Hopefully.

I feel like I've awaken from slumber.
These past few months seem like a blurry dream, floating somewhere at the limit of my consciousness, barely real. As some of you may know, I worked since mid-April till the end of June. Actually, I finished my job contract a little more than a week ago and I spent that time off indulging in my Sims addiction. But now, it's July and it's time to wake up again. And remember that I am a writer... not a receptionist in a theater company.
Don't get me wrong, the job was fine! I remember the work experience I've gotten but more importantly, the friendships gained. :)
But let's be frank: I worked for the money.

Now, it's time to work again... for the fun ^_^

It's a rainy day here and as I sit by the open patio door, a chilly wind tickles my feet, curling my toes inward. I sit in my departed grandma's old rocking chair (cause there's no better seat in the world, everyone knows that) and I'm ready to go back. Back into my book, back into my career. Back into who I've chosen to be.

While outside thousands of moving trucks are plaguing the streets under the rain on this national moving day, I sit comfortably inside, in this "new" condominium of ours which took me a year and a half to bring it to the way we like it (and still not completely done yet) and I'm thankful for everything that's happened in my past which lead me here. In this house, in this time, with this boyfriend, this cat and my friends (through the magic of Internet), with these talents in my hand, this career on my resume, these dreams in my head and that future ahead of me.

It was someone somewhat famous that once said "Every journey starts with a single step."
So now that I'm back, let's journey together my friends! One step at a time... :)

  1. Awwww the way you wrote that sounds so magical and whimsical. It definitely puts me in the mood now to sit down at my computer and start looking through my own manuscript today. And no matter what happens, I can agree to take at least one step today, with you <3
