Hey, check it out!



Handwriting Analysis


[link]


That's what my handwriting looks like. Minus the random little mess-up squiggles on the left side.


i took the analysis quiz thing, and even though it was totally and completely wrong about me, it was still interesting.

It told me about some coolio person i sometimes wish i were more like.

:P



Ok ok. i know i haven't updated my journal in months, but! Keri and i are going to a mini devMEET at the Getty on Saturday, about which we are super duper excited, and i'm thinking that after something like that, i'll have no choice but to update.

Go to =HAL2008 for more details.

B-)


So yeah! Lots and lots of exciting things have been happening lately.

Just Be Fantastic

New in Loriland:


- As seen in one of my latest deviations, i now have glasses. It was discovered not too long ago that i am actually surprisingly nearsighted (the clarity normal people see at forty-eight feet is the clarity i see at sixteen feet).

But it's ok. i've been told i look like an attractive (hot/pretty/sexy, ha) librarian. Which has been an aspiration of mine since i was little.
So they're growing on me.
:]


- AP tests are just around the corner, so things are a bit hectic around here. i'm taking AP tests for Environmental Science and English Language and Composition on May 13 and May 14.
So pray for me, wish me luck, something like that.

i'm sure i could use all the help i could get.

:P


- i was asked to prom. And it was a complete and total surprise.
And i really like surprises.

So now Keri and i are both going.

<3


- i was informed last week that 'FTW' is not, as i've presumed for many months now, 'WTF' in reverse; that it does, in fact, stand for 'for the win'.

:slow:

A piece of a potential poem came to me a couple weekends ago:

...And sparkling chunks of precious stones
On gnarled knuckles of old crones...


Think i should make anything of it..?

Aw, i so adore you guys.

About a month or two ago, i discovered this journal by ~Amertie.
[link]

And i couldn't stop thinking about it.

So i decided to try it for myself. It took a few tries, but in the end it's a strangely freeing exercise.

These are directed at ten different people in (and out) of my life who are very, very special to me. It is meant to be anonymous and possibly ambiguous; that's part of what makes it such a strangely freeing exercise.

i recommend it for everyone; it kind of opens your eyes to things about yourself, too..


*


I. You are one of the few people in the world who can drive me banana sandwich one moment, and then the next moment have me laughing like an insane person.
Someday, i will find the courage to tell you how much i've come to look up to you.
i crazy love you, you know.

II. i don't think i've ever before come to adore someone so completely or so quickly. You are one of those instant soulmates, those people with whom you can't help but find a deep connection..
And someday i will wrap my arms all around you and give you the hug of your life.

III. Life had a funny way of finally throwing us together; but you will always and forever remain one of my absolute dearest friends--no matter how near or far you are, in time or space.
Thank you for listening to me so beautifully when i needed you.

IV. i wish you would step outside of yourself and realize that actions have consequences--big, real consequences, even if you can't see them at first.
i always have and always will love you, but it hurts me to watch you hurt your future self.

V. Someday, you will know that you are the most vividly free and colorful and delightfully inspirational person i have ever had the pleasure of coming across.
You make me want to live life in ways life has never before been lived.

VI. Your mind is even farther in the clouds than mine is, and i completely adore you for it. Many people have a hard time understanding you, and that hurts you.. But i like to think that i understand you.
You just want what is wonderful, and there is nothing wrong with that.

VII. i wish i knew what to say to you anymore.
But.. i don't know what it is about you (or maybe it's just me), but i simply can't let you go. Not yet.
i miss you.
And i wish you cared more.

VIII. i never stopped loving you, you know.. At least as a friend. i hope you know that, and that you have somehow found a way to forgive yourself for what you did to me.
i forgave you long before you even thought you needed forgiveness.

IX. You are now one of the happiest people i know, and i couldn't be happier for you.
You give me hope.. Hope for myself, someday. Hold on to what you have, hold tight--but please find it in yourself to be patient.

X. If you weren't so endlessly merciful, i would be truly lost.. i could never, ever thank you or love you nearly enough.
Thank you for being you, always and forever.

Be Big in a Small World

Since i last remembered to journal about anything here, i have...
...found three perfectly fitting poems for me right now.
...had my computer completely re-installed (twice).
...been scribbling more than ever in my latest composition book.
...accidentally introduced my sister to a possible boyfriend candidate (the idea of which i am still very much trying to get used to).
...visited the college of my dreams.
...begun a villanelle.

*

The villanelle is a work in progress, and i've mentioned it here in order to sort of force myself to make sure that it does not stay that way until i forget about it entirely. i really like what i've managed to produce so far, and someday soon i want to install the completed and polished version here in my dA gallery.

For those of you out of the loop, Wikipedia does a rather decent job in the way of explanation of the technicalities and the beauty of the poem that is villanelle.

As for those personally perfect and incredibly inspirational poems i mentioned...

, by :iconinmyroom:. Implicitly perfect.

, by :iconitsxmagik:. Explicitly perfect.

, by :iconamertie:. Especially perfect.

We are all like stars, like tiny points of bright light, twinkling across a deep night sky.
And maybe some of us are planets.

This is a video that was first shown to me by my eighth grade Bible teacher, who happens to be one of the very best teachers i've ever had the pleasure and privilege of experiencing (and i've liked, if not loved, every teacher i've ever had).

It left something with me, enough so that when i recently rediscovered it by way of Keri/ =KnottyKeri (who found it through Katelyn/ ~danderfluffin ), i instantly recognized it and vowed to never ever lose the link again.

It is called Glosoli, by the beautifully melodic Icelandic musical group Sigur Ros (hence Icelandic lyrics).

i guess i'm going to be taking somewhat of a break from dA for a bit. i'll still be around, just not as apparently, i think. Not really sure..

i'll be alright...eventually.
Please don't worry about me. i'll just be sleeping a lot more.
i just haven't felt like doing much else lately (aside from the dozens of depressing haiku i can't seem to stop writing).


But you are all wonderful, you really are. And i will be fine someday.
Just not...now.
