“Gonna keep on tryin’ till I reach my highest ground” - Stevie Wonder, Higher Ground

:< Boo, I have been really fatigued in the last few days. I’m starting to get those black rings around my eyes, and I don’t know why I have been so tired (not enough sleep, lol, just contradicted yourself, Raelene). I’ve always had not enough sleep, but my fatigue ( Read more... )

Just have to agree with you on the annotations, I probably wrote "lol" about 4,000 times in my text book (wonder if we'll get marks for that?)

I also like that you said lolwut, trufax and used the word "chagrin" in your poem. (which incidentally, I thought was very good..especially liked the view from the parents perspective)

interweb geeks ftw.

Michael and Kate said that they're marking the text and common place books on quantity, not quality (ah, they better T_T...)

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated :) Haha, yeah I've always wanted to use the word 'chagrin' somehow, but never got around to actually using it. (...I sound like Elle Driver from KBV2 O_O)

ANYWAY, woo~ interweb geeks ftw deffz

PEACE~

RAE, we'll have to compare annotations on the Wednesday morning walk to uni. I kept drawing arrows to things and writing "ROFL!!!!"
Hmm... wonder how praised that will be? We're using contempoary 'language'... and comparing it to pop culture (BATMAN!!! Adam West was the only Batman worth knowing, in my opinion)

And oh wow, strong poem! Gees; I love the point of view you've taken.

"Oh child of mine, why won't you die?"
My brother works with disabled people and actually notes that it's really horrible how many people wish death on their own children, but then again, also acknowledges their point of view that they will possibly be "better off". I don't know. With this picture, I sort of sensed a time period that would just reject him. But he seems happy enough through condemnation... Hmm...

Ooh, the word 'rofl' sounds like it might add variety to my text book! (kthnx)

LOLOL Adam West was awesome as the Batman (so camp + un-dark + heaps of sexual connotations with Robin in the series). He is even more HIGHlarious and loveable (sp?) now as Mayor Adam West in Family Guy <3

Glad you like my poem :)

I agree with your last paragraph especially... it's all just a matter of pro-choice vs pro-life in the end, I guess. It'll be a mix of the two, if lucky. (Hard to explain/make sense, lol but unlol @_@) Btw, if you don't mind me asking, what does your brother work as (or is it part of community/volunteer work)?

Hey Raelene!
This poem is really good, but it's so long! Anyway i think you portrayed what you wanted to really well. How the boy shouldn't be smiling i think? because he has a clubbedfoot. Well anyway...great poem! But sounds mean =P

Hey Sally,

LOLOL I like to write long and confusing poems :P And it's up for open interpretations; in regards to that, yours is right :)
