There. I said it. I’ve only told about three other people that I am currently writing a novel. This is the first time that I have said (er, typed) these words: “I am going to publish my novel”. Oh dear… oh dear oh dear… What have I gotten myself into?

I even exceeded my goal and got a 4.0! Whoo-hoo! I got into the University of my choice (after several terrible months of suspense) and am now totally satisfied with life as of now. :) Excellent grades are definitely worth achieving.
This goal is possibly the most fulfilling goal I have completed thus far. I really did sing with rapture and dance like a Dervish this one time! ( I was barefoot in the rain and everything!) This is mostly thanks to a very close friend of mine who saved my life… I can’t believe I didn’t notice him before, at least… not in that way. The best advice I can offer to anyone who’s interested in hearing it, is that sometimes there are a few things you can’t do on your own. It’s okay to accept help from other people. If anything, it’s almost always much more beneficial to “open-up”, something I usually have trouble doing. So for any of you who have an atrociously stubborn disposition, ( guilty as charged :-) ) maybe you should let someone in your life. There’s always at least one person out there interested in helping you. You just have to take the time to find them.
