I have creative writing this semester and, as such, I have been doing a ton of writing. I had to write a rant on a topic I was passionate about. I chose sexism, and that rant eventually turned into this poem. I submitted it to ApplePi, a local literary magazine for high school students in the area, and it was published. I went to the launch last ( Read more... )

So this is a random post for my squee about my high school's musical. They did RENT this year(The 'school edition' mind you, which basically only cuts 'Contact' and the swears) and it was AMAZING!

Her dad had been sick for a while, but even still, death is not something you expect. What was nice though was that ( Read more... )

I was planning on posting about Kathryn and Legacy, from So You Think You Can Dance season 6, because I am basically obsessed with them at the moment, but then this came up on fandomsecrets a few days ago, which basically describes exactly how I feel about them.

I finished my ceramics project early, and as a result got to do an extra credit project and make whatever I wanted. I decided to make Moya, the ship from Farscape, because she is awesome and pretty. So, I'm sitting there, molding clay, when my teacher, Mr Parker, comes over and asks what I'm making, I will now recreate this conversation for you ( Read more... )

Yesterday afternoon I was messing around with photoshop with some gorgeous pictures of Rhythmic gymnastics. You know, that sport in the olympics with the ribbons and hoops that everyone always makes fun of? Its actually really cool, especially at the elite level. And it is very pretty. So, these are the results. Most of them aren't edited alot ( Read more... )
