The Creative Project is on hold for now

Okay all, thanks for your fantastic suggestions, but I regret to say that I won’t be able to get to any of them right now since I only get about 2.5 hours a day to do non work, school, or commute related items, so I’ll be putting the project on hold until I can either reduce my work hours or after classes end, Sorry everyone.

Until next time, hang loose and enjoy the summer

P.S. I’m still feeling like MacJournal is one of the most awesome blog tools ever, I’ll try and upload some audio stuff later this week, or maybe so photos from my ashland trip in a couple weeks.

A summer project

I’m spending this summer in Oakland taking some classes and working and I need something to ensure I don’t go mad, with that in mind I’ve decided to take up a creative writing project. Send me a short idea and I will write a short story or poem about it, or send me a photo to write about. I’m experimenting with getting more writing done and I think that this is a fun way to get people involved and stay connected.

Here’s what you need to do, first think of a word, theme, picture, or sentence that you want a story about. Second, email your idea to lhocke89@gmail.com with the subject line of creative project (you can also leave a comment on this post if you wish). Third, sit back and relax while I work over it. Hopefully I’ll be able to spend less than two weeks on each piece, with a few overlapping. If this works out I’ll keep it going as a regular thing so submit your ideas before the end of June for this first batch and we’ll go from there!

Until Next Time, It’s fucking summertime, holy shit let’s relax :)

P.S. I’d just like to mention how awesome it is that I can compose this blog post when I have internet and then upload it when I get home. Every time I use it I just love MacJournal a little more.

P.P.S I meant to upload this on Monday, but life got a bit crazy

Packing's a bitch

I’m taking a short break from packing up my stuff for the drive back to Oakland, and let me tell you it’s a bitch and a half. I’m packing up clothes, electronics, files, and papers for this trip and next time I get to do dishes, utensils, and all that random crap I have sitting around here for some reason. I have no idea how I’m going to fit all this shit into my car, but I’ll figure it out I guess. I also still need to get a bike rack and a few more boxes, so anyone who feels inclined to help me out, I’d love it :)

I’ll write some more later about just why I’m heading back so early, until then enjoy the day!

EDIT: I just found out that I can edit my blog entries from MacJournal!!!! Holy fucking shit that’s just awesome
