Whining and Excuses

[annoyingfrombrith]

[ireadforaliving]

Oh my God, Leah. This is exactly my life right now. I love you.

[zenface49]

this really makes me want to not go to college.

[b7manz4eva]

lool u got the same problem with word as me it took me 2 hours to write a one page story :S

[thatlunagirl]

You just need a little rest from creativeness for awhile. Unfortunately, you can't break from school. Maybe spring break soon? A good mental break? That always helps me.

[kooleeo95]

cheer up. and happy belated birthday

[katharinethequene]

Leah you're awesome :)

I ead durin boring classes too, I thought it was just me :) x

[KennyWrites]

Spring break is coming soon,and then Summer vacation! More time for reading and writing.

Happy Birthday!

[ninjapiano]

Welcome to college, love. I totally know how you feel, siiiiiiiigh. It'll all be okay!

[angeloverlooked]

I know exactly what you mean. I'm having the same problem right now.

[makito8best7]

I understand you girl, same here

[BreanaMurphy]

I have the exact same problem. I have an ENORMOUS pile next to my bed but I haven't finished a single one this year. I blame Kristina for tiring us out at the end of last year...but I'm not sure.

[bigred719]

meee too, college is kicking my book and i am so itching to read all of the books i want to read.

[thislittleblackwatch]

I think you should rename this video "School Ruins Lives" or something similiar.

I just graduated from high school and that is exactly how I feel. Hence, no study for me this year!

[anrocfan]

Hey girl, came over from Hayleys channel. You are pretty cool. You two are pretty similar you know that? Anyhow 5 and sub. =)

[iasonharper]

I have an HP tapestry too! Mine is Slytherin.

And I totally know what you mean... uni has sucked all of the hobbies out of my life, I swear.

[GreenFairyPrincess]

wow you've just explained exactly how i feel right now...

gah i'm so stressed out and fed up with college work! ahhh

[creativemachine]

Haha the end was really cute!

"Oh wait, there it is!"

[WERTY317]

I always do what I'm told.... so here I am

[SkateGreat2010]

I feel ya sista. I feel ya. I LUFF YOU.

[fire365]

More evidence that college ruins you. You should never major in something that you love because almost certainly learning about it will ruin it for you.

[GymMidget415]

Ugh I know how you feel. Lately I feel like my creativity has just disappeared.

[EternalFlame92]

I totally understand you. It's happening the same thing to me...it's an awful feeling -.-

[Nagakama]

I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT ON YOUR EYE AND THEN YOU TOTALLY DID IT FOR ME.

Drop out.

It solves all those problems!

[FluffvonDanger]

Fiiiiinally watched this video.

HERE IS A COMMENT.

<3

[clue111]

i am going through the same thing....

speaking of which i need to go read a school book....

[goingforthegold]

whats your blog?

[hayleyghoover]

Caraaaaazay graffix

[partyweetow]

I totally understand what you're going through. Last semester, I took four English classes, German, and band. That was it. And it killed my brain. I was writing at least two papers a week, not to mention the hundreds of pages I had to read each week. It was ridiculous. I completely burned myself out. What I'm most worried about is the fact that I used to be really good at reading and writing analytically, but after last semester, it's like I just can't do it anymore. It sucks.

[countnumerologist]

If you are going to go to the trouble of posting, I can at least comment.

Everyone's creative journey and source of inspiration is different. Eventually I discovered that my companion was a "Creativity Demon" rather than a benign muse.

My demon would be so pleased if you also had a creativity demon: his favorite story is your "Wangdoodles" - he idolizes the Mean Lean Kill'n Machines.

[wannabeinhogwarts]

I feel your pain.

I have far too much reading to do for classes, so instead of reading novels I'm...watching YouTube...far more intellectually stimulating, amirite?

[bandgeek8408]

I feel your pain. The exact same thing happened to me in college . . . and from the look of it, the seven or eight people that commented before I did.

The good news is that it never lasts forever. College can't keep imagination defeated forever! =)

[MegTao]

Yeah...that's what University does to you. I know exactly how you feel about the reading thing. I recommend joining some sort of book club (then it gives you an excuse to read because it's a commitment).

As for the writing thing, that has to be your own focus. I try to give twenty minutes to writing every night before I go to bed (I usually fail, but maybe you'll have more success than me). I find if you schedule time for creativity...it might actually get done. Good luck!

[Angieanything]

Maybe using a blue background with white text in Word would be less intimidating. That's what I use. The blue is soothing.

But somehow, I don't think that is the problem.

I used to stress about uploading YT vids. But now I just do them when I can. We love your stuff, or we wouldn't have subbed.

If I were you, I would try to find things that reduce stress. School is hard. It sounds like you put forth a lot of effort when you do things. Let that be enough of an accomplishment.

[chocolatecauldrons]

You've hit the nail on the head. I'm the same. The only times I allowed myself to read in high school and college were during the holidays. Because when I read... I get sucked in and go around doing things one handed. I take baths instead of showers because one can read in the bath. :S

If you ever need someone to upload for you, I'd be happy to. <3

[abbs866]

I've been having trouble creatively, too. I'm trying to take ten minutes a day and write in a journal, or a some spare paper. I'm not doing anything with this writing, but it's sort of helping me to get back into writing.

And you should try reading children's books. I know it sounds crazy, but they are short, easy, and actually easy to analyze.

Don't worry about it. You're inspiration will come back.

[frogswhatfrogs]

You're awesome :D I don't tell people that enough, so I'm starting now! You don't know me, and you probably won't ever know me, but I think you're awesome!

Also my brain does the lame blank thing, and I have piles and piles of work :(. Ah well.

[jesuislagare]

This is my life too. Don't worry you'll get back into the swing of things. (Did I just say "Get back into the swing of things"? Oh dear).

x x x

[kaitlynwithakay]

Siiiiiigh. This is me too.  It's so unsettling. Gaaaaaahh.

I think we've talked about this before. Don't worry; you'll get through this dry spell. If creativity was an endless flow, we'd never know how creative we really are. Does that make any sense? Meh.

There are so many "that's what she said" opportunities in the above paragraph.

[DefineTheTwilight]

Aw. I've having major creative blocks and stuff for the past couple months now. I feel your pain.

[muffinbandit13]

You're brilliant.
