Taking a Break

As always, I feel like I should be posting more, but right now there simply isn't time.  However, every once and a while I do take a break.  I leave my college essays (when I finish I will have written 11 in total) and my homework (which never ends) and enjoy the beauty of the world we live in. 
An evening at Newport Beach.  If you look closely you can see a crescent moon and the first star of the night.

College Essays

I write college essays
then I correct college essays
then I hate college essays
then I really hate my college essays
then I start over and try to write a new essay
then I hate what I write
then I forget what similarly named draft I was working on last
then I get fed up
then I give up
then I try to write another college essay
Then I realize I have a deadline on Tuesday
and try to get my act together
and then I write something I kind of like
then I edit
and hopefully by the end of tomorrow I will have a really strong essay.
Hopefully...
I really want to go to college.
Now.
Please accept me.
Please.
