A Savior

New Writing Journal Entry:

A Savior - Me

(If I put something in my journal that I wrote myself, most likely I will post the entire thing on here. Just wrote this one...still kinda rough. Also, I dont know how many people will actually read this, or how many of you will have read my writing before, so i just want to clarify something. Sometimes I write about myself, sometimes I write about other people, sometimes I take a general emotion and exemplify it, and sometimes I just write whatever pops into my head. So although some of what I write may be quite literal, do not take everything I write literally.)


Lay down her head she does at every day's end
Cheeks wet with sorrow for the coming morrow.
No more does she notice the absence of light;
Pain has become the beat of her drum.
Moon waxing and waning, stars soar past her eyes;
Fate, planned so well, has left only shell.
Long gone is the time she'd have put up a fight;
In a ball curled, shes dead to the world.

Could heavens above have decided to send
To her a savior whose will is to save her?
Is there a chance that she someday again might
Be heard to laugh, or be more than half
Of the person that she once was before the lies?
Please, be it true that he sees her too.
A best friend -- a lover, who'll do by her right;
Lord, let it be! Let him set her free.

The Twelve Kingdoms: Sea of Shadow

I have just finished reading Fuyumi Ono's, The Twelve Kingdoms: Sea of Shadow. It was a really great book, although a little less mature than I had hoped. The author has already written all 8 books in the series, and they have been released in Japan. However, the english versions are just now becoming available. In english there will only be 7 books because the first two books in the series were condensed into one, Sea of Shadow. The second book in the series, The Twelve Kingdoms: Sea of Wind, was available starting 3/11 in stores in the US. I have yet to purchase my copy, but I plan to do so in the next several days.

Journal

Ok...so now for my first real post. Yay!

I was at barnes and noble the other day and i was thinking...I really need something to keep me occupied, other than spending hours brainlessly watching TV! So as I was browsing the shelves, not finding any books that struck me as particularly interesting, I came along the section of journals. Books filled with blank pages, just waiting for you to fill them -- what more could you ask for? I found a really pretty one, too! Its leather, light blue with white flowers, and the leather part closes over it and snaps onto itself in the front. It also has a pencil holder. :-) So now my big decision was whether or not I should buy said journal. I would have to think of something I could use it for. I have never been able to keep myself interested enough to actually handwrite in a journal daily, so I came up with a brilliant idea! I decided to start on an assignment for a class that im technically not even taking yet(lol). I have to fill up an entire journal with any form of literature I want. I can quote favorite authors, poets, or philosophers; I can copy entire works; I can write my own prose or poetry -- the possibilities are endless! So, my new hobby has become finding and copying down my favorite poems, and writing new ones myself. I dont know if this will seem interesting to anyone other than myself, but I will keep an updated list on here with my newest additions.

So far...

The Road Not Taken - Robert Frost
Sonnet 116- Shakespeare
The Raven - Edgar Allan Poe

Exams suck!

Ok...so now i'm feeling a lot better, although i still can't hear out of my right ear, but i have midterms. And the even more annoying thing than having to sit through all of these exams, with spring break just bouncing around in front of you, tempting you to be distracted? Professors who keep changing the date of their scheduled exams, untill all of your exams end up on the same days! AAAAHHHHH! Stress!!!

I do promise that over spring break I will get this thing up and running.

Sick

I have been really sick recently, which is why I havent spent much time on this yet. Once I'm feeling better I'll write more often.
