Me + Slightly Tussled hair= Not a Bad look

Oh well i was at lunch and i was bored. That's what happens...

Poet of The Month- Audre Lorde

So i'm doing this WebQuest in English class now about Audre Lorde and i want to share some of her poetry so here goes!

"Love Poem"

By Audre Lorde

Speak earth and bless me with what is richest
make sky flow honey out of my hips
rigis mountains
spread over a valley
carved out by the mouth of rain.

And I knew when I entered her I was
high wind in her forests hollow
fingers whispering sound
honey flowed
from the split cup
impaled on a lance of tongues
on the tips of her breasts on her navel
and my breath
howling into her entrances
through lungs of pain.

Greedy as herring-gulls
or a child
I swing out over the earth
over and over
again.

In American Government...

I'm currently in American Government and I'm having an epiphany... this class isn't too bad. I thought i would hate it, being my slightly anarchist self, but you know, it really isn't horrible. Now theater. That, my friend, is a horrid class. I think that we honestly need a new teacher whose ideas are not so antiquated. i still remember the time a couple months back where he actually asked my all black female class when we asked him why we had to find a play with all black characters "do you think you can play white?". That really upset me, but being as spiteful as i am i couldn't quit and leave the class. So, i am still in said class until next month (thank Jesus) and i never have to see him (class-wise) again. Or, if my prayers are answered they will find a new young teacher who has acted on stage more recently than the stone age. But whatever, I'll stop complaining. I'm really ready to go home. I was in bed last night when i realized that i had 3 sections of math homework to do. Now mind you, i figured all the homework i had to do was write this bill for American Government (which, if i may say i kicked ass on, format and everything), just to find out, while i was lying in bed at 1 in the morning, that i have heck of math homework to finish. But me, being my comfort loving self, was not getting out of my warm bed and going out to the freezypop weather to get my math book to do homework. I'm sorry, that was just something that was absolutely not going to happen. BTW this is April and it's 32 degrees now. That's Kansas for you...

Finally Done with the flippin Student Written and Directed One-acts

It is finished! done! termino! LOL i am finally finished with the one-acts (our last performance is tonight) and I actually get to sleep! YAY! I'm glad i got the experience and it does make my college resume look better but I really missed going home at 3:05 instead of 6:00. Even though every performance i do i complain about how i will never do theater again because of the horrible teacher, i know i will. i mean, theater is my passion. Well, lets say hobby. i don't think if i wasn't as good at it as i am that i would like it as much, but whatever. I FINALLY FINISHED MY PLAY! I submitted it for this Young Playwright's Festival at the Coterie Theater bit it was too long (which, in my opinion, translated into "too strong of a subject matter" for the venue) I mean sure, it was about lesbians, but there was no sex or anything in it, goodness! The plays that did get chosen were the conventional ones. Like, for example, there was one about a bunch nerdy kids going to "The Watchmen" premier. it was the same old same old, boy meets girl but boy is a nerd and girl doesn't give him the time of day but he ends up getting her anyway because this story is just like every other story with this subject in the history of time. The end. Now that the school year is almost over I need to start considering what i am going to do over the summer. I'll be 16 (YAY YAY YAY and SUPER YAY) which means i get to get my license which will open up a whole new world of opportunities (i.e i will not have to date some arse-meister who i do not like in the slightest just to use his car). I also want to work. Having my own money and not having to ask the Mother is much less degrading, PLUS i can get whatever i want and not have to worry about her so called "veto power", which totally rocks.
