Part of the reason that yesterday's Talking Meme post took me so long to type up was because I started going through and reading a lot of my older fic. Not all of them! But some of them, enough to let me really watch my writing evolve over the years ( Read more... )

One of my friends from high school made a comment on my Facebook, and I thought that I'd pass along the humor. ;-)

Last year in class, my AP English class was doing poem interpretations. Donna, one of my friends and fellow academic team members, was working with the following poem:

Well, I survived the band concert. Everything went fairly well, and there weren't too many problems. You know, unless you count the fact that we didn't get the video working until (literally) five seconds before the concert began.

Of course, I'm ready to kill another band member. He had convinced me that Star Wars: Episode III had been released in ( Read more... )

Mr. Jean, my AP English teacher, is officially the coolest teacher I've ever had. ^.^

Anyone willing to take a quick look at it?

It's just to make sure it's actually a satire and stuff like that. My brain kind of died around 1:00 am.

Okay, I have to write a satirical short story for AP English. And it's due tomorrow, but I think that it's going pretty well. There's only one thing I need...

Someone want to help me think of a subject to write about? :-/

Since half of my class will probably be writing about the war, the president, or my school's prom fiasco, I'd kind of like to ( Read more... )

I have to be up for school in a little over four hours.

Not to mention that I have to work again tonight.

Kill me now?
