Citadel for the Broken

The other night I awoke from a very confusing nightmare. I shook all over and I wasn't really sure why I was so scared. In the middle of all this I found myself wishing I had a dream catcher, so I wouldn't have such terrible dreams. It's a laughable thought, but it gave me inspiration for a story that I worked on briefly that morning before a couple of my classes (and during). I haven't really worked on the character sketches for the story which will be a good project for today :). I find that some of my happiest moments are when I have a story to work on that I'm excited about and this one will be a bit of an experiment since I intend on making it a sort of a thriller/horror story. (Probably more thriller than horror because I don't think I can cook up anything very scary) It's kind of a test run... but the story centers around a girl who has owned a Dream Catcher since she was a little girl. It was a gift from a childhood friend that she has lost touch with but still remembers her friend very fondly. The Dream Catcher has comforted her since she's had but one day it breaks and she begins to have terrible nightmares and she has to make journey through her dreams to find the spider woman, who protects man kind from the evil spirits who torment mankind while they sleep. I'm not too sure how this will end but I have my ideas... I think part of this is from having a small preoccupation with Silent Hill...
Anyway my freshmen year at college is almost done. It seemed to take so long at first and now that it's almost over I'm shocked.... I never expected to get this far this fast. Life seems to be going so quickly and I feel so dizzy from it all. I really have to buckle down and concentrate during this last month of school (and before I know it I'll have graduated, started a life and then I'll die... WOW!). The good news is that summer is coming and promises loads of fun, or at least I hope that's what it's promising... Summer is most definitely going to be busy if nothing else: job, summer classes; friends... Parties! Yeah, life is hard and short but good... I think.
Well, I'm tired of writing and I really have more important things that I should be doing, like school work.
