No Luck

I have over an hour to do as much writing as I please. I am stuck in my mom's office at the University while she meets with one of her dissertation supervisors. Now of course this is the opportunity that I would kill for, time and a computer to type on (as writing things first on the computer is a hell of a lot more efficient than writing it on paper and transferring it to a computer later on. Then you have to write it twice!). The only problem is, I've looked through my story ideas on my memory stick and I have found that all my previous story ideas are terrible. Quite cliché as well. My God, there has to be something better than whatever I have come up with so far, I'm sure of it.
Honestly, I do have some knew ideas I could be working on, but I'm sure they are on the cliché side as well, and that is very discouraging.
If I have not mentioned this before my life long goal is to have a book published before I graduate high school. Now, it's become more real a goal than ever before, as I will be beginning my high school journey in September. Idea's are flowing, but I'm not sure I can use any of them. ARGH! This is so frustrating. Now i know what other writers talk about when they say that they are squeezed fresh out of ideas and they are feeling relatively useless to the world. I can TOTALLY relate to this now.
Though I suppose these authors would pursue whatever ideas they had, cliché or otherwise, whereas I seem to be giving up on first mention of the idea of a cliché. That just goes to show the mental maturity difference between an adult and a fifteen-year-old who thinks shes an adult :D. I should be more attentive to this fact as it is staring me unforgivingly in the face. This may be a a case where I am showing my immaturity by being as stubborn as a mule and blindly waving away this truth that could be my imminent demise as far as my previously mentioned goal states.
As far as this entry goes, I have nothing else to report. I should be using this time wisely and trying to develop these ideas I have mentioned, instead of whining and complaining here. More very soon, I promise!

Summer Vacation

School's finally out and I'm very bored..
I've been promised Stampede this year (finally) and we're planning for Monday or Tuesday.
I'm at a loss for interesting input lately and for that I apologize.
I am looking forward to High School in the fall. I don't handle summer vacation well, I always like having something to do and during the summer I don't have anything to do! ARGH! I can't even find any writing inspiration around. I have so little inspiration I wrote about my brother and me hunting down a mosquito last night, and that's not a very interesting, though I used some very unique vocbulary to make it sound interesting.
Mind you I guess that's one of the many challanges of being a writer, making normal things seem interesting! Man, that's one of the hardest parts though :(!!!
I am not going to be writing much about my life any more, more about my writing progress.
So I suppose there's not much to talk about then... so I'll have more soon.
Au revoir!
