Writing for pleasure

I've been working on a research paper for class (the first draft is due Monday) and I decided to take a break from writing for class by writing for pleasure. I'm feeling slightly overwhelmed right now; I have this research paper, another one next week, a creative project, creative writing projects, etc. Plus, today I registered for class. One class I absolutely had to get into to fulfill a requirement was already closed. I went back to the drawing board and found another class that will meet the requirement; it's a night class, which I am not thrilled about, but I have to make it work. On the bright side, I won't have classes on Fridays. But with three (!!) Lit classes next semester I'll probably have to use Fridays to catch up on reading.

I need to do my assignment for creative writing that is due tomorrow. But right now I am feeling utterly devoid of creativity. There's an episode of Doctor Who in which there are street vendors selling emotion patches such as happy, honest, etc. Right now I could use a patch of creativity. But alas, there is no TARDIS to take me away to such a land, so I suppose I'm on my own.
