Goals and Aims

 This week had been difficult, with so much pain in my body. A big part of my days were spent simply trying to manage this pain. As my gynaeclogist has said, this pain is already interfering with my life. But, even with that pain, I have succeeded to achieve certain things:

1. I have taught all my classes. 

2. I have written around 2500 words for my Creative Writing essay.

3. I have written two poems, and working on a third. These are not great poems, but they are poems which do express in some ways the deep restlessness I feel inside. 

4. I have begun Ivan Turgenev's "Fathers and Sons" and 10 chapters into it. 

5. I met with S and talked. My poems came out of my conversations with her. 

Goals : 1. Finish the first draft the Creative Writing essay

2. Respond to Ashaq and Afsar's messages on Facebook

3. Finish the poem that you are working on. 

4. Submit short story to 5 places

5. Submit chapbook to 2 places. 

6. Take a 30 minute walk everyday. 

7. Learn a new Spanish word everyday

8. Read an AN submission everyday
