Easter weekend was great! A friend came to town to visit and we ran around like psychos all day Saturday, which was much-needed. Of all the adventures to have, the best are experienced with other people. I'm just so blessed to have so many wonderful people in my life, they continually cheer me up and inspire me to write. Saturdays are usually so monotonous for me, so having one to spend with others doing whatever we want is a breath of fresh air for sure! We raided the local library, dug through old letters, sorted through poems that could be made into songs, and played an intense game of bull crap, which I won! (I attribute this to being a very honest player, or, at least, knowing when to lie and when to call someone else's bluff.)
I woke up Monday morning realizing that the semi-annual end-of-the-semester crunch time was upon me. All I see in the near future is homework. And rain. So much rain that my backyard is speedily turning into a grassy jungle. Which, I actually like. Maybe if I lay in the grass long enough no one will ever find me and force me to work ever again. Haha, until the goats are let out and ignorantly try to eat me along with the grass. Skittles. Back to the drawing board....
Thanks for reading and keep posted, more poetry is coming! Hope you all liked "Learning to deal with it". I wrote that one about a year ago. :)

This morning came way too fast. My cell phone started playing my morning wake-up song and I was thinking that there was no justice in this life. That thought lingered over my morning bowl of oatmeal as well, which was flavorless AND watery. Though, I can't decide how I loathe it more, flavorless and watery or flavorless and sticky. At least my older brother, whom I affectionately call "Mooch" is home from his trip to the Dominican Republic! I can't wait to pick his brain about all the experiences he had on this latest mission's trip. I'm sure he has some great stories.
I was really excited to see that a bunch of you were interested in my blog! I have a lot of poetry that I want to put on here and there's some fun short stories I had written a while ago that I thought you all might find humorous too. I will try to get those up as soon as possible. Also, don't forget to look at my "Words of a Wiseman" below on this page. I have a wealth of great quotes that I will try to change up every so often to give you wonderful folks something to ponder.
Well, I have a class to run off to right now, but stay posted cause there's some great stuff soon to come!
P.S. I encourage all of you who have opinions and creative minds (ALL OF YOU) to start your own blogs! I would love to follow some of you and it is really a blast to write like this. :)

And So It Begins...

So this is the magical world of blogging! I admit, I have always been curious about blogs, but being slightly lazy and mostly sheltered I had never looked into creating one. Two very kind and inspirational friends helped me get this started and warned me that it is an addicting hobby. I can't wait to find out!
Allow me to introduce myself. I am a young, inspiring blob of humanity with a deep devotion to Charles Dickens, and most classic works of literature. I love to write. Poetry, short stories, letters, long stories...they're all marvelous. More than anything, I love experiencing life; there are all these quirky adventures and bizarre people threaded throughout this world. There's always something to glean, always a new story to listen to, always friends in unlikely places to meet. So, if you also love to laugh, or enjoy a story never told before, come along for the journey. It's going to be interesting!
