I have a raging chocolate craving. Mars Bars to be specific. Yummy nougat and caramel oooh I love caramel, nevermind the poor quality chocolate wrapping those up...
Okay. I looked at the circular for the mentorship programme and the deadline for submission is 1st of July.
*gasps dramatically, wriggling on the floor like a cruicio'd caterpillar before turning to Corner Of Woe*
I am so dead. How am I going to get approval + recommendation from the teacher?
DIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDEADED.
And I have to put in at least ONE new piece...which I am sure will suck. A lot. Suck major a$$, considering the caliber of my writing recently. I can barely get a coherent sentence out, for goodness' sake! And I forgot the definition of a fucking metaphor.
Yes even though I am a literature student I have time and time again forgotten what a metaphor is. Oh, the shame! The humiliation! I mean, if a metaphor is used to represent something and is something like a simile, what makes it different from a symbol?
ARGH.
And how on EARTH do I classify my work? It's not poetry, it's not prose, it's a freak combination! OH NOES! IT'S A FRANKENSTEIN!
ARGHHHHHHH. It's too long to be poetry and too poetry-like to be prose. Because in prose, you don't have imagery (unless you are a descriptive writer), and most of the stories are implicit and narrative (no surreal ones like poetry where what is said is not the message but rather the message is between the lines).
OMFG.
I need a theme for my new portfolio. The last one I used was 'Human experience (momento mori)', the failed one was 'bleakness of life' (I bet the judges then didn't really like my pessimistic and angsty ramblings), and now what? GAH!
