Hello Again :)

It's been a while since I've written. 11 days exactly, meaning I kind of failed my once a week quota, oops. Oh well, better late than never. :)

New things:

So, I am in love with poetry. I think this will help my wish to write a book, but make it something more manageable and something I'm actually good at. Specifically, I am deeply in love with spoken word and slam poetry. I would so perform sometime at a slam, but unfortunately I live in corn land and the nearest slams are in Indy and Chicago. I found that there was a slam in South Bend once but I can't find any details on it. More importantly I feel like I can use my poetry at school, specifically Vespers. I feel like I should try and get on the speaking schedule and use my poetry as a foundation to tell my testimony.
Poets I am fond of- Sierra Demulder, she has two books and my favorite poem is "Werewolf", which if I do speak at Vespers, I will be memorizing this poem for it.
Jeanann Verlee, her stuff is legit, favorite poem "Unsolicited Advice to Adolescent Girls with Crooked Teeth and Pink Hair"
Sarah Kay, she is the cleaner of the two and has been doing this since she was 14, favorite poem "Origin Story" performed with Phil Kaye.

Oh I didn't tell you, I'm a licensed driver now :)

Empathicness wise- I've finally been getting things again of substance. I won't go into details, but it's nice to get things again. It's weird that I'm so used to it now that when I don't get things for a long time, it worries me.

It's Fair week! All of Daniel's projects are in, and he did sooo many...not. He did like 4 lol. He did well on his projects though :)
Unfortunately I was able to go down the tin punch isle and see who got grand champion overall. I was furious. I know it's selfish, but all I wanted was one grand champion in 10 years. That's it just one. I am so upset that the girl who because of politics and her name gets to not only beat me out, but also gets to win again. All I wanted was one, and this girl gets at least two. To top it all off, she's not even that good and all she does is bird pictures. I could of done her project in maybe 6 hours and did it better than her.
On a positive note, Liz is coming to visit tomorrow! :) So excited. And, we got our housing assignments, meaning they accepted all of us as roommates. Bonus, we'll be living with a RA and whoever her roommate is. Two more months and I'll be back at school. Half way there.

Well that's all I have for now. I'll probably do a fair update this week as well.

Today I:
Saw- "Bones" the TV show. I am a fan :)
Heard- Some awesome poetry
Smelled- Rain, oh how I love rain smell
Tasted- Daniel's foods project. Soo good.
Touched- The couch with my face as I pretty much passed out from lack of sleep from last night lol.
