101st Post

Hello people! Guess what! This will be my 101st post on this blog. I feel like that calls for some sort of celebration! Am I right? (Of course I am) Let me see....um....for all of you animal lovers...
 (Since we all know that Dalmatians come in litters of 101)
Today has been interesting. I went to a very important meeting concerning the application for editorship of next year's yearbook/news paper. I am applying for either Editor in Chief or Assistant Editor or copy editor or photography editor. (I am a little bit indecisive.) I am currently the assistant editor for the yearbook.
This morning I tried to do a new thing with nail polish...it didn't work.  Now I have funky nails. Hehehe. I am so hungry right now. It is fifth period. Lunch isn't until 1:33 and that is thirty minutes away. Agh. 
Apparently today is PT day for ROTC. Apparently MSgt Hickman sent out a remind about it last night. I was unaware of this though because my phone is still broken. If rice doesn't fix it tonight then there is no hope. Anyway, guess who decided to wear flip flops today. (Me.) Brilliant. I texted mom asking if she could bring my shoes. Then she reminded me that I have the van. I was like, oh yeah... I looked for my keys. I didn't have them. Then I remembered that Hattie needed them this morning because she left her phone in the car. In the end, mom had to call the school to let me out and I had to get the keys from Hattie, go home, get some shoes and socks, and then come back to school. Ha ha fun times. Tonight I am getting this kind of car. 
It is kind of a throwback for me, because when I was little my parents had the same car. Later they upgraded to a blue one a few models up. My car life is coming full circle. 
Do you ever smell people? Especially people that mean a lot to you? Me too. #2 and Steve recently came up with a plan to be able to smell each other despite living across the country. They plan to send sweaters back and forth, each time writing a note on the sweater and taking pictures of themselves doing cool things while wearing the sweater. Justin and I agreed that this was a great plan, so we are doing the same thing. My sweater came in yesterday. It is super comfortable. The inside is really soft. I think the first cool picture that I will take is me with my first car. That is pretty cool, right?
Yesterday I actually sat with people at lunch. (Aren't you proud of me?) I think I am going to sit with them again today. I hope it goes as well as yesterday. Maybe by the end of the semester we will be goodish friends. Two of them are in my flight in ROTC and one of those two lives in my neighborhood. Maybe we can get to the point of hanging out sometime.
Guys, I know this blog post has been full of random updates, but I want to thank you for listening, I have kind of had to keep all of that random mumbo jumbo to myself because Justin has been unavailable. I usually tell him all of this stuff. (I don't know why particularly him, it just happens that way.) Anyway, I am going to wrap this up now. You guys have a nice day.

First Post/ Finding Inspiration

As This is my first ever blog post, I thought this random writing rather suits the situation.  Enjoy. 😎   Here I sit, trying to find some inspiration for my pen to express on this page.  I close my eyes and let my thoughts sink into the depths of my soul in search of emotion.  All is pitch black, yet I can see; no, feel the dread beasts nearby.  Anger breathes down my neck while Ignorant Joy juggles knives in an effort to comfort Self Conscious who is weeping in the corner.  The more dangerous emotions I prefer to keep locked in steel cages.  To my left, Fear growls and tries to convince me to let him out.   Behind me, red hot Anger still heaves his fiery breath, singeing the hairs on my neck.  To my right, are Love and Trust.  By far the most dangerous of the group, yet also the most inspiring.  Together they conspire over an intense game of cards how they will soon rule the world.  I boldly approach them and twist the key...

How To Write a Limerick

Good morning, People! How was your sleep? Mine was alright. In my dream, my buddy Flash found my lost Starbucks gift card. He was like SWEEET until I told him it was mine. Then he looked a bit bummed. I (seeing this sad face and not particularly liking it) decided to make a deal. "Tell you what. You can keep the card if you promise to get coffee with me." "You do not have control over that stuff." He took my card and walked away. Fereal? Who does that??? LOL. Fortunately it was just a dream. I still have my half spent gift card. Now that we have talked just a bit, it is time to get serious. We are going to write a Limerick. {What in tar nation is a Limerick?}Hold your horses, I am about to explain. A Limerick is a form of poem following an A-A-B-B-A pattern. This means that lines 1,2,and 5 rhyme and lines 3, and 4 also rhyme. The lines labeled "A" are longer than the others and have the same rhythm. I will try to write a Limerick right now. (I literally...

Decorate a Leader Night

Hello. Today is Thursday. I wasn't sure what to write about to be honest. The past twelve hours have been a bit like an emotional rollercoaster. I would rather not discuss it right now.  So instead, I decided to talk about poetry. I don't really want to do that though. My brain is a bit mushy. However! I did find this sonnet by Shakespeare. I really like the last line in the sonnet. It just stands out in sharp contrast. I must show you. Here you go, Sonnet 65 by Shakespeare. Sonnet 65 Since brass, nor stone, nor earth, nor boundless sea But sad mortality o’er-sways their power, How with this rage shall beauty hold a plea, Whose action is no stronger than a flower? O, how shall summer’s honey breath hold out Against the wrackful siege of batt’ring days, When rocks impregnable are not so stout, Nor gates of steel so strong, but time decays? O fearful meditation! where, alack, Shall time’s best jewel from time’s chest lie hid? Or what strong hand can hol...
