All quiet on the western blog

No news is good news? Not in the writing world. "No news" actually translates to:

"BREAKING NEWS- WE DON'T WANT YOUR CRAPPY ARTICLE!"

So another contest goes by at commonties.com and once again I have missed my chance at $200. Oh, well, I guess I'll try again next week. I turned in the Spanish Autoblog articles last night so that is still a possibilty and I haven't heard back about the transcription job.

Also I get my last paycheck from my old job today so while that will keep me afloat for a little while longer it also marks the passing of a lot of time since I started doing this without any progress. I am really looking forward to my classes because hopefully I will get better. I can write, I just am so used to writing research and stuff that I don't know how to write w/o citations and crap like that.

I'm sure as soon as I get into a classroom setting this will be much easier because it will go from being real work to school work. I will be doing the same thing, but I will be instantaneously better at it because it is for school. It's funny the way it works but I know school credit gives me this weird motivation that makes me kick ass.
