Hello.

 I'm making a blog instead of doing homework: I feel like creativity is a good excuse to not read Piers Plowman. My goal here is to make something that I don't have to worry about editing; my goal is to make something that I can use to try and work through all my fucked up thoughts. In truth, my Intro to Creative Non-Fiction class gave me the idea. I've been tossing it around in my head the last couple of days- and then the thought of if I have time came to mind. I'm a college student which means I don't have time to shower much less blog about pointless shit. But, I'm also a writer and that's a keen part of my identity. So, my hope for this is keeping a blog will help me come up with ideas for my writing.
In case you couldn't tell by my pen name, I'm also insane. But, I embrace my humanity; therefore, I'm not really as insane as I think I am. (Does that make sense?) Regardless, I have depression and anxiety issues; a lot of the time, these mental disorders make it difficult to have hobbies because I'm dead set on making them perfect. My goal is to have this be completely uncensored as a way to combat the perfection issues. So, not only am I successfully procrastinating homework, I'm also doing something for my greater well-being. If I got a grade for "trying to better yourself," I'm pretty sure at this point, I would have an A+. Yay for perfection.

Okay, okay. I have a ton of homework to do. I'm at work right now and only on page thirty of Piers Plowman. A fantastic text. Not something I feel like doing at 7:20 A.M. (Oh, by the way, I've been at work since 3 A.M.) I decided that it would be nice to help a co-worker out and pick up her shift so she could study.
I'm a stupid bitch.
This shift leaves me very little time to sleep. And if anything is learned in college it's that sleep is important.
My day looks a little something like this:
Work:  3 am to 8 am (check)
Work: 12 pm to 2 pm.
Class: 4 pm to 5:15 pm
Class: 7:10 pm to 9:40 pm
Work: 6 am to 8 am (Thursday)

I'm adding that last part in order to bring my schedule full circle and give everyone a good idea of the circularity of my life. Work- school- work. It's enough to drive anyone insane;therefore, Luna-C was born.

(Don't worry, my life isn't all shit. I haven't gotten to the good part yet.)

Now, I have expectations for this little Blog. I'm thinking that at particular times, it may get a little...intimate and provocative (not in a porno sort of way) but if I can get the raw truth down and all my emotions with it, well, my writing should improve and my topic pool should overflow. But, I guess that's the point of having something that's all yours- I could be talking to myself right now. I don't know if anyone is going to read this, ever. But... I can use this to my advantage. I have no unreal expectations regarding this.
