(no subject)
I've got a group speech due tuesday. There are a few problems I am having with it though. First, of course, would be that I don't want to and I haven't prepaired for it in any way yet. The second woul dbe that I haven't talked to any of the people in my group yet. And finally, I actually feel like writing today but I shouldn't because I got this shitty homework to do.
Anyway, I've been playing a few games again lately. I stopped playing video games a while ago, except for MMORPG's, but I seem to be kind of slipping back into it. So far I've played a lot of Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town, a bit of Doom 3, a lot of Freelancer, and some other assorted stuff. I'm actually downloading Ragnarok Battle Offline, though I have little to no clue what it is.
Ah, yes, I do feel like writing ever so much. Mayhaps I shall start writing and then work on my speech. I got a while, I should be good. Me thinks I shall work on rewriting that novel that got lost in the hardrive crash last year. I had it to just over a hundred-fucking-thousand words and I lost all my writing on my computer due to a virus or something that deleted my main partition. Of course, thats not all I lost, I also lost a lot of sketches and other writing. I think total I lost around 400-500k words worth of work, and I just haven't been all that motivated to write anymore lately because of it.
Oh, speaking of which, I do still have one story from before, I had uploaded it to the internet and thus, it was saved. It is a short story of 8,002 words (I could be slightly off in the word count, I'm too lazy to open it) by the name of Mahyr Dragan. Oh, and I'll add a song for you Kaz, since when you read this that will make one page view.
Os iusti meditabitur sapientiamEt lingua eius loquetur iudiciumBeatus vir qui suffert tentationemQuoniam cum probatus fuerit accipiet coronam vitaeKyrie, Ignis Divine, EleisonO quam sancta, quam serena, quam benignaQuam amoena O castitatis lilium
~Translation~
The Just shall meditate wisdomAnd his tongue shall speak judgement (Psalm 37:30)Blessed is he who resists temptationFor at trial he shall receive the crown of life (James 1:12)Lord, Divine Fire, have mercyO how holy, how calm, how benevolentHow comforting, O lily of purity
This song actually comes from a German song by Eduard Mörik, as seen below.
Bei Nacht im Dorf der Wächter rief: Elfe!Ein ganz kleines Elfchen im Walde schliefwohl um die Elfe!Und meint, es rief ihm aus dem Talbei seinem Namen die Nachtigall,oder Silpelit hätt' ihm gerufen.Reibt sich der Elf' die Augen aus,begibt sich vor sein Schneckenhausund ist als wie ein trunken Mann,sein Schläflein war nicht voll getan,und humpelt also tippe tappdurch's Haselholz in's Tal hinab,schlupft an der Mauer hin so dicht,da sitzt der Glühwurm Licht an Licht.»Was sind das helle Fensterlein?Da drin wird eine Hochzeit sein:die Kleinen sitzen bei'm Mahle,und treiben's in dem Saale.Da guck' ich wohl ein wenig 'nein!«Pfui, stößt den Kopf an harten Stein!Elfe, gelt, du hast genug?Gukuk!
Anyway.. I guess thats all for now. I'll bother you more tuesday Kaz. ;3
