Writer's Block: Words to Live By

What is your personal motto or favorite quotation?

ANGEL: Well, I guess I kinda worked it out. If there is no great glorious end to all this, if nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do. 'cause that's all there is. What we do, now, today. - I fought for so long. For redemption, for a reward, finally just to beat the other guy, but... I never got it.

KATE: And now you do?

ANGEL: Not all of it. All I wanna do is help. I wanna help because I don't think people should suffer, as they do. Because, if there is no bigger meaning, then the smallest act of kindness is the greatest thing in the world.


I try and remember this every time I'm about to go into a tirade about the injustices of the universe, or every time I feel like walking out of work and never coming back. Nothing you do matters, so if you do nothing, you don't matter. All you can do is try and make a difference to the lives of other people. There is no heaven, there is no hell, there is only this, and if you fuck it up, there will be no repercussions, there will only be you, knowing you could've done more.

  • 21:05 I hate writing mediocre report comments for average kids in the top class. I can't help but think that it'll lead to cranky phonecalls. #
  • 22:22 I feel weird tonight. Like I'm fundamentally deficient. Finally finished my reports, and my insides are moving all around. #
  • 22:50 It's a rare occasion that I actually employ my dinosaur nightlight, but there's something about the rotation of colours that's very relaxing #

  • 12:49 I *hate* writing reports for kids. "Your kid is dumb and you did a bad job raising them." is apparently not an acceptable response. #
  • 13:27 @backwardscrafts www.questfortherest.com/ Try that. #
  • 14:15 NaNoWriMo =3912 words and counting. The 'don't edit' factor is killing me on the inside - but I am writing lots - and quickly. Awesome. #
  • 16:25 Jut started watching 'The Office'. I'm pretty much in love with Jim. #
  • 19:38 I wish more people would update their word count. It kicks you into gear a bit to know people are in front of you. #
  • 20:29 @backwardscrafts www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/146241 and I agree - the no author search thing is making it hard. #

  • 23:38 25 minutes until NaNoWriMo. I'm staying up, writing a token paragraph - then going to bed. *Tired* #
  • 00:20 322 words. It's 12.20am. Now to bed. #
  • 07:30 Our internet is down, which could be a good thing considering nanowrimo has begun. Six hundred words so far. 49400 to go. #
  • 09:45 2000 words. Not a bad effort. Now i can go get those new pajamas i wanted. #
  • 10:20 The trouble with wearing a 'half man, half horse shirt' is that if you're unattractive, people will always assume it's the top half. #

  • 06:31 Watched an excellent documentary on the SBS last night, 'Baraka Boys'. It's left me feeling really inspired, despite the bleak ending. #

(no subject)

Uni is over for 2006, this time next year I'll be done for good.

Scary. Though today was sadly anti-climactic.

I'm trying to think ahead and sort out all the things that I want to get done this summer, because I always end up back at uni wondering why I didn't do A, B and C.

I'm working 5 nights a week until the end of the year, so I'll be earning decent cash, it's just a matter of keeping busy during the day...the Wii will be released soon though (16 days) so that should keep me busy *Twighlight Princess drool*.

Amusingly enough, my biggest *project* at the moment involves my recording all the comedy galas that channel 10 puts on in lieu of Rove. Also I'm tracking down the 2005 'A Very Specky Christmas', recording the best of this week, and adding the 2006 ep which should air mid-december.
