Eep! First Drive!

"The prospect of a long day at the beach makes me panic. There is no harder work I can think of than taking myself off to somewhere pleasant, where I am forced to stay for hours and 'have fun'."-Phillip Lopate


Aye yae yae yae yae! I have to drive on the "real" road today.... I am NOT looking forward to it! Whatsoever! This is my second week of Drivers' Training, and, so far, I've only driven around our mall, and in the parking lot. I feel sorry for my driving partner! *nervous smile* All I ask is that I don't crash! (And that I can change lanes... That'd be good, too) I actually have to go in... 2 hours! Blech. Then I have to do the boring class time, too.... Ugh. I cannot WAIT for this class to be over.. alas, there are still two weeks...
Ah well.

Spring Poem

"Chess is as elaborate a waste of human intelligence as you can find outside an advertising agency."-Raymond Chandler

Spring

The sun rises on the dewy grass.

The last bits of snow in the hidden

Shadows slowly melting.

As the trees are lifted of their burden,

And the birds begin to sing,

Like Aslan comes spring,

Bringing life to the dead.

And as the rains are spread,

Wiping away the sadness of winter,

Does spring come.

A poem I had to write for English. : )

The Poor Swing

This was my first try with my sister's camera... This poor swing has had so many butts sit on it. :)

First Post

Barmoeter, n: An ingenious instrument which indicates what kind of weather we are having.-The Devil's Dictionary

Alrighty, the beginning of my postings on a blog... Yikes... Oh, what to write, what to write... I suppose I can just write about the daily going-ons of my life (they are quite interesting, I assure you ; P)
Firstly, I wanted to create a blog to blog what I've been doing creatively, sort of to keep track of what I've been doing in the artsy, crafty land. Although, with school starting here shortly, my crafts may not come very often, unfortunately. Mostly what I do craft-wise is scrapbooking, but I'm really wanting, and trying, to do some interesting photography! I'm saving up my money (starting like last week....) to buy a really nice camera, like those both my sister and brother have. (I have an older brother and an older sister, by the way) I am soooo jealous of them!! I want one so bad! But.... It probably won't be until next year some time, before I get one... :( So, for now, I shall just have to be satisfied with my point and shoot. :)
I am very scatter-brained, so my blogs will probably be very helter skelter... Oh man, you probably don't hear this very often from a normal teenager, but I can't wait for school to begin! I have been on break since mid-May, and I don't start until mid-September, and I haven't really done anything this summer, so I'm looking forward to actually having something to do!! Although, once it starts, I probably will want it to end! :P
So, I guess I'll end this very random first post of mine with a ta ta!
