Sitting atop my roof, I've found
a route to the sky that had before
hidden above trees, smoke, and wires,
while I lay stupid on the ground.

The next door dogs bark song to me.
I speak one back with rough, quick voice,
then clutch the rotting, mossy wood
of lovely, unloved sycamore tree.

I'm losing it.

I haven't written anything in forever.  I'm not talking about blog material, I'm talking about poetry and fiction.  iDeas has not been updates in a LONG time. I should get on that.

NCC

My friend's father is a member of the National Comedy Company, an improv troupe based in New Orleans.  She asked her friends to post a link to the NCC's website should they have a website of some sort.  I'm not sure how much good a link from this blog will do, but here you are.

NCC

They really are VERY good and VERY funny.  They help out with my school's improv troupe, of which I am part.  They helped us out so much, I guess because they have so much talent to share?  Check them out.

Mixed feelings about G.N.O.

G.N.O. was a student council workshop over the weekend. January 5-6. It was a blast, and I had loads of fun, but I'm not so sure it did what it was meant to do. What happened to learning leadership skills? Yeah, that didn't ever happen.

So I am now seventeen.

If I lived in the Harry Potter world, I would be of age! I would be allowed to do magic outside of school and everything!

And if I lived in the world that I live in, I could see and buy R and NC-17 movies and not be breaking any rules!

The new phone I spoke of was a present. I like it. It is nice. Not Mac compatible, though, so I can't put my music on it. And we went to Commander's Palace to celebrate my grandmother's birthday which was December 29. The lunch celebration for her ended up on my birthday, so all the servers and hosts and such wished ME a happy birthday instead of her. And I got a chef hat and balloons.

Best things in life A-Z

A list of the best things in life, one thing for every letter. Five letters per entry, six for the last.  I will now begin posting said best things and include what category they dominate.

PostSecret

Link: PostSecret

I submitted a secret. I feel rather accomplished. I've been wanting to submit a secret, any secret, but I've lacked creativity. I've also lacked knowledge of what I could use as a secret. I think ultimately what motivated me to sit down and do it was the knowledge that one friend had a secret published on the website a few months ago, and another friend recently submitted a secret. So I went for it. I am not going to tell what secret it is, or even if it ever made it on the website. Sorry. :(

If I could be anybody...

If I could be anyone, I would be frezned from YouTube.

frezned.

One of these days I'm going to make YouTube videos, and I'm going to be funny and likeable and popular.

That is all.

I don't know much, but I know

I love Allison.

Quotes that made my life (thus far)

I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around--nobody big, I mean--except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff--I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I'd do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all. I know it's crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be.

J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

A man who does not think for himself does not think at all.

Oscar Wilde

What's worse: making a mistake, or knowing how to fix it and not doing anything?

FOREVER

Forever, that's how long it's been since I've posted anything on here. I like life too much to chronicle my escapades in regard to it (life). I vow to write more and live less.
