Well, I got into the advanced creative writing: poetry class I wanted! I told Mom and she remarked how strange a turn it is, me getting into poetry. I hadn't really thought about it, but I suppose she's right. Poetry was never a branch of creative writing that I was ever particularly interested in. Poetry was always this thing that was perfectly nice and all, but it was something that other people did and I was not a Poetry Person. Now, however, I find myself enjoying reading poetry quite a bit and thinking that I need to start finding more poets to get into. I also find myself trying to think about language in a new, distilled way as a result. I don't think that I'll ever identify myself as a Poet like I identify myself as a Writer, but time will tell.
I'm very sleepy suddenly for some reason. I'm trying to sit myself down and stare at my paper so that a thesis sentence comes to me, but it's been fruitless so far.... Stupid Northanger Abbey... Oh well. Something will come eventually.
