pondering.

I'm not really sure what to write about today. I think I forgot yesterday, so I feel I should write something, even if it is completely pointless and uninteresting.

First things first, I guess, (or not, since this is the second point of this post), My Cousin/Godfather's wife had her baby yesterday night!! We don't know a name yet but pictures on facebook show he is pretty much adorable!!

Next, there's a girl in my English class who is doing my head in ever so slightly. Despite the fact that an argument in Paris seems to have been forgotten, her ever so closed mind is present as ever.
When we were given the task of converting a scene in Middleton and Rowley's "The Changeling" into a novel excerpt, we had to work in fours and then split into pairs. So myself and this girl were paired together because we both wanted to do the particular take on the play. But then she decided she wanted to write her piece in the style of Hardy, and did a slightly omniscient-but-missing-something piece - but our teacher wanted us to stick to the original script as much as we could. So I put in a lot of effort, almost 2 pages of writing for 2 (short) pages of script. And she said could I used a particular line to end mine, so it leads into hers (because we split the scene in half).
Except it was very...different to what I had already done. Because I interpreted the task as write novel section with dialogue, basic structure but particular language, her line looked so separate. And so the other day I decided I was going to write it on my own, and tell her this on Monday, giving her 2 days to finish hers.
They do not work together.
We can not work together.
I will not be told how to write my own work by somebody too high up their own backside to see anyone elses opinions, thoughts or talents.


So it seems I did have something to write. Hurrah!!
