What I find the most interesting thing about the day before deadlines is that nothing happens.
Sure, people come in and fade out, sit around and talk, study in the lounge area; but there are no phone calls to make, few e-mails to send, and little motivation to seek out anything new to do. We're holding our breath.
Our layout is still on hold. This constant state of limbo is making me nervous: what to do, what to do in these ages sitting at a desk without a book to read? I know! Blog. Write an article. I've missed writing for the paper to be honest. Editing's great, but trying to turn an idea into 500 words or less? It's a crazy, beautiful thing. Kudos to the writers who keep sending us amazing stuff!
I did have an office discussion today with a friend about adulthood: it's not as intimidating as we thought it would be. In fact, it's very much the same as junior high kids sitting around talking about recess.
