passion.

it used to be i'd discover a new musical & listening to it would restore my love for theatre.  it's been a while since that's happened so needless to say my love has faded.  but in its place I am finding another love.  one that's been there all along although unsung.  literature.  books.  stories.  While this last year has seen me turn away from my first passion, I think I've grown in this one.  and for a few reasons.

First:  is my love for language.  apparently it's something i'm really good at.  (i find myself diagramming sentences for fun sometimes.)

Second: I've read some really good books lately.  Anyone who has yet to discover  the beauty of Stephanie Myers needs to get their butt over to Borders right now & buy a copy of TWILIGHT right now.  along with the is JK's amazing power to grab every one of my emotions in the last Harry Potter.  I was so invested in those characters because they were so well developed and completely human(i won't go into my feelings on what happened cuz i know jess is reading it right now)  Add that to a new Francescia Lia Block book right now & I am happy with summer reading!

Third:  One amazing Author, Libba Bray, (go read her books too!) has a LiveJournal & he latest entry just captured me in a way that i can't describe.  but you should read it.  go to my friends page.  or   libba-bray.livejournal.com  to read her entry "Censorship is not Patriotic"

I can't wait for 4 lit classes this semester!
