An Echo in the Dark
An aspiring novelist's deepest thoughts. Well, most of the time. Get them while they're hot people!
Preface
Some may, over time, find me an odd person to read from, but I understand. I am not your typical average person. And I personally like it. This Journal will be filled with snips of my writings, my life, and my passion. But, I will begin this as I do with all journals and tell the readers a bit about myself.

My name is May and I am currently 18. Yes that it my true age. I was born in 1986, but neh..... you dont want to hear about my childhood or anything. So, we will keep this part short and simple. Well. There you have it. That's about all I share with the open public. Lol.

I find myself in an interesting predicament at the moment. I am 18, in a good college, but have no idea where I want to be in 10 years. I do not know what I want to do, and once I get there, if I will be happy with my decision. Some may have chosen their paths long ago, but I have not. I do not want to be stuck in a career that I enjoy for ten minutes then spend the many years trying to make it fun again. No matter how much money a job makes, if I cannot be happy doing it, then why bother? Everyone deserves some happiness in their life every so often. So why not start in career until you find the man (or woman) you want to spend your life with? (which...I have.... ^^ )

The reasons behind my indecisiveness vary majorly. I am addicted to the written word, and find myself alot more open online or in journals than I have ever been before. I love to read and love to write. I love music. I am learning piano, and sing with a passion. Music has so many ways to express emotion, from the darkest deepest pain, to the purest of love. As does languages, which I find I am relatively good at. I currently am learning French in college, teaching myself Japanese (which isn't going to well as I am very busy....) and keeping on top of my Sign Language. No. I am not deaf, but I love the language itself. I have a deep love for children and would enjoy watching them grow, having them teach me even the simplest of concepts.

I do not know which I am going to go with in the long run. Linguistics, Music, Creative Writing, or Education. I am planning currently to double major and minor, though it may be hard, or at least major and minor, regardless of how unrelated the topics may seem. Tips?

This journal will be filled with writing from the novel I am currently attempting to write, as well as random little writings from my head. But, it will always express passion.

I know I am not perfect, but perfection is in the eyes of the beholder. Feel free to flame me if you wish, but know they will be passed over without regard. constructive critism is welcome as well, though I will not bend over backwards to change everything in my journal for it. I would, however, appreciate comments, so I know that I am not alone in the world. There, that's said.

I love the greatest person in the world. I asm guessing, love, that you will read this and I want you to know that. You are my lighthouse on my shores, guiding me back to a safer place, though you may not know it. My light in the dark world, illuminating even the darkest of moments with your smile. There is no way to express my love for you, for no words are powerful enough to even remotely begin. I was blessed 6 month ago at the Gaian Ball to find the love of my life, my angel, my sexy french tutor. *giggles* This journal is for you. ^^

    Crawls up of the floor......"gah mushy.......stuff." whee Shudders. "I think most people will say this is a bit weird but i would be perfectly happy with a place of my own a decent job and......a cat. I suppose that come from not really believing in love. Sometimes i do, depending on my mood, but most of the time i don't. Even when i do, i'm pretty much of the mind that the way my luck stands i will never find it anyways. So why bother? At any rate this isn't about me. I'm happy your so happy marion. 3nodding
    I know how you feel with the 'what am i to do with my life' thing. i've got the same problem, though i'm a little older. I really like pretty much all the things you said. Does your family encourage you? I hope they do, that makes it so much easier. I like to write to so if you put your writing in here i will critique it. Hmmm i think that's all for now." XOXOXOXOXO. xd

    "Your family must suck as much as mine does then. All i ever get from my mom is 'Your such a dissapointment why don't you do something with your life, get a job, and a car, and have some responsibility.' It's not like i don't try. stressed Yeah and my parents don't really approve of any of my interests. So yeah, we can support each other." 3nodding

    *blinks* keep on writing! im on my own writing adventure! It is nourishment for the soul. So keep it up. Just remember, watch out for mistakes like "foil" instead of foul...thats right it happened to me, and "teh" instead of the....maybe is should write in pencil...*blinks* it would work...*imagines possiblities* no more spelling errors...wait thats what spell check is for. Cures!
