Where Has All the Content Gone?

Not much going on. I'm going to post a poem or two after a survey. Damn The Nanny. She tagged me. And everyone else. So here it is. All of my dark secrets revealed by the time I count to 12. Only not:

1.) What I was doing ten years ago: Being a crazy second grader. You know how we do.
2.) Five years ago: Being miserable. Moving schools is really not fun. Yar.
3.) One year ago: Trying not to die from the sudden shock that is junior year.
4.) Yesterday: Probably nothing.
5.) 5 snacks I enjoy: Pocky. Honey toast. Cheetos. Pirouettes. Reese's.
6.) 5 Things I would do if I suddenly had $100 million: Buy at least one horse. Buy a ranch. Complete the collections of all my fandoms.
7.) 5 locations I would like to run away to: Whitefish. Narnia. Hogwarts. MCR's tour bus. Behind the veil.
8.) 5 bad habits I have: Touching my face. Biting my cuticles. Being ADD. Staying up too late. Taking life too fast.
9.) 5 things I like doing: Reading. Watching anime. Fangirling. Being with Sidera. Writing.
10.) 5 TV shows I like: Will & Grace. The Office. Naruto. Prison Break. Law & Order: SVU.
11.) 5 things I hate doing: Homework. Being fake. Feeling guilty. Feeling close-minded. Fighting with people I love.
12.) 5 Biggest joys of the moment: Sidera. Love. Music. The solitude my mind provides. Hope.



That was fun. Er. Or something. Now for some poetry. Everyone got their berets? Well then, let us begin:

Iris

Where Iris sprawls in peaceful symphonia,

The colors mingle in euphoric grace.

Dip your brush into the clashing hues:

Dole out plums dyed deep with wine.

Let the reddest of peppers lick fire to your tongue.

Coat yourself with cultured beige.

Snatch the pearly sweetness of each pastry.

Immerse your world in make-believe cacti dreams.

A deluge of sensory ecstasy.

All in a moment—

Grow close to distant minds—

All in a glance—

Let the canvas spirit your senses away—

Away in a flash of colorful understanding.

Lalalala. Next one.

Inside

The wind gropes,

Through darkness.

I know it will find us.

But I am not afraid.

Holding her

Holding me.

We clutch in vain

At the warmth of those fires.

After Zephyrus has caressed

Untold fissures of our limbs,

He will know:

It is not his touch that makes us quake.

Our beating hearts

Match the beating drums.

Betraying no answers.

But we are not afraid.

Post-Weekend Stress Disorder

Whyyyyyyy must it be Sunday? Why must it ALWAYS be Sunday? Sunday is a rotten day. Sitting there, all spiffy after Saturday. Why is it at the beginning of a new week on a calendar, hm? What's so wrong with putting Saturday there. At least people LIKE Saturday. Sunday, on the other hand. Sunday just fails.

Wow. I need a life. Really. Ranting about Sunday? Tis a bit sad, loves, don't you think? Moving on? Great idea!

I didn't get to see D. or The Nanny this weekend. Travesty, I know. I miss them. I mean I'll see D. tomorrow, but it's not the same as getting to see her 1) with The Nanny and 2) on a weekend. I was looking forward to playing something that I could actually maybe not come in last at. Oh wells. Taboo and that... other one... are fun. Sidera and I will just have to practice. Someday. Someday we'll win. Or at least. Lose by much less than we did last time.

Not a lot happened this weekend. I did get to hang out with some old friends. We'll call them F. and P. I love them both dearly, but we've kinda lost touch over the past year or so. We were supposed to go shopping on Friday, but P. got off work kinda late and F.'s coach gave her team a speech after their game that kinda dragged on. We finally did get together, along with one other person that I'm kinda friends with, but not really. I really like her though. I shall call her Lo. Because I can. Lo actually ended up kind of being an icebreaker of sorts. For some reason I felt less out of place with her in the car. Probably because I feel so guilty that I never call P. or F. anymore. Our interests are different, as are our hobbies. It's hard to explain, but I guess the easiest example is that they like to drink (a lot), and I don't. Generally this doesn't make me uncomfortable, but for some reason it stands out with the two of them. I guess because it marks that we really have become such different people since we became friends, as opposed to me making friends with them as they are now.

That paragraph is very confusing. No matter. Pretend it's not, cap'n.

The only shopping we did was at Ele.ctr.ic Bou.tiq.ue. Yes. That's right. I went in there. I was in there for over an hour. I didn't try anything on. Dear god. I can't really see myself wearing anything in there. I was tempted to buy some fishnets, just to have them, but I decided not to. Same with false eyelashes. I wouldn't be able to put those on. I'd just end up spearing myself in the eyeball. I could be wrong, but that could be potentially problematic. They were getting stuff for the Saturday night's dance. All three of them bought something: F. got a mini-(mini-mini-mini-)skirt, and Lo & P. got matching dresses in different colors. I'm sure they looked groovy last night.

Alrighty. Going to shower. And not eat waffles. T-T
Wow. This is a beastly long entry. I win.
Next weekend, loves. Next weekend.
Peace out, sporks!

New Mexico, Here I Come

Hi lovers.

Alrighty. First real post. I can't remember the last time I wrote a blog entry. Probably in my Xanga. Which was kinda pointless. But hey. Somethingsomething.

Basically The Nanny, D., Sidera, and I are going to have our four secret little blogs and feel super cool and being secret agents or something with them. Or maybe just write stuff. And be like "THE SUN IS SHINING IN NEW MEXICO TODAY, Blake!"

Ugh. College. I am not going to get in anywhereeeee. Someone kill me now. Siriusly. I hate life. I want to go somewhere big, liberal, and Asian-friendly. Is that so much to ask for?

Anywhosit. Going to spaz over that. Later alligators.

P.S. I heart The Nanny. Even if I tried to distract her.
