I am very good at giving up on projects. I have about 20 first chapters of fanfics saved to my computer that will never get finished, my homework is always half complete when I get to school and have to finish it in a rush, my mom even calls me half-a-job Annie sometimes. The amount of projects I have started and not finished, or tv shows and books I am never going to finish, it's quite disheartening actually.
That's why I was a bit nervous about this project when I first started it. A blog post EVERY day for a year? It's way beyond the capabilities of my procrastination central based mind that doesn't like finishing things. I knew I was going to end up giving up with this, which is why I'm quite surprised with my 20 days so far. I know I shouldn't speak too soon but with the amount of diaries I have started over the years and only ever had one entry in...well, you don't want to know.
Of course, as I am keeping up with this project, I am leaving my 200 word Spanish essay unstarted beside me and it is BAD. I don't know why I am like this, why I can never seem to finish things. It makes me sad. It makes me wonder how I am ever going to get anywhere in life.
And wow, I did NOT mean for this post to go down that road.
The reason I am writing this is actually because of Supernatural. If you don't know what Supernatural is then that is probably a good thing. I have had so much heartbreak because of that show, and then when I caught up and started watching series 6, it got a bit crap. I didn't like the writing or the plot and I stopped watching. And I didn't watch Supernatural again for about a year.
What changed? I hear you asking. Well, I don't, but I'm going to say anyway.
Tumblr. In about the November of 2012, Anna got herself a tumblr and can I just say that if you are part of either the Doctor Who or Sherlock fandom (and I am in both) then there is no way for you to escape from Supernatural...no way at all. Thanks to the MANY tumblr posts I have seen about Supernatural, I have finally opened up series 6 and I'm working through the crap, because I've heard that it gets better.
So at least I don't ALWAYS give up on things. Maybe this is hope for my future.
Until tomorrow, toodle pip.
