Writing...

I was going back and looking through all of the posts from my past, and I realized that I haven't put up any poems for quite some time. Now I have two.
They both have almost the same title, and they are both what is called a "list" poem.
One is MUCH more light-hearted than the other. But I just thought that you might enjoy them. They are in chronological order.

Things I Learned Last Week

You send two men to a fishing expo,
You will find a pontoon boat in your basement.

When in kindergarten,
People teach you to fill in the lines.
Then there is school,
Teachers tell you to write between the lines.
As an adult,
They tell you to sign on the lines.
Then someone tells you to be abstract.
You don't know how, no one ever taught you.

Never plug something into a bad plug,
You may not have power for a day.

Life goes on,
But if you are stuck,
Sometimes friends can be the best tow trucks.

It's ok for life to be a whirlwind,
But don't spin too fast,
Or all the pretty sights will be nothing but a blur.

Walking on a crust of hard snow is good,
Until you fall through.

Things don't need to have a purpose,
Some things just...are.

Money rocks, but only if you have it.

Snow is cold, really cold.
Sun doesn't help you warm up all that much!

Things I Learned Last Week
(And A Bit of This Week Too)

Writing is good, but overrated.

When you are depressed, beware of spontaneous explosion.

Most circumstances are only as akward as you make them.

You are never really as good as you think you are,
But then again, you aren't as terrible either.

Death and suicide scare people,
Don't mention it to them.

If you have an epiphany, keep it to yourself until the "oppotune moment",
Just trust me.

Insanity sucks, but it can be good for you.

You can be independant and relationship based at the same time,
Who knew?

So, yeah. Those are just two poems that I thought you might enjoy. If you didn't enjoy one, you are bound to have enjoyed another...or not... I guess that's your choice.
I hope that you are having better weeks than both of those that I have written about!

A LOT of Nothing, But Some Good Somethings too

Well, I finished waching Anger Management, and I guess it's not such a bad movie after all. But it is still wierd!!
Also, I don't know...I guess that I have been in a little bit of a funk this last week or so. It's not like I'm really sad or anything, I just am not much of anything. I haven't been feeling particularily good or bad about anything, just always so so. Whatever. (Look at that, I prove my own point without thinking!)
So, I don't know. I have just not had a lot to say, hence the two short posts right in a row. But at the same time, the only reason I have posted two so close together is because I feel like I should have something to say. You know?? I don't know. Maybe that's just me being weird.
Hope that everyone is doing fabulously!
Kunal, thanks for the kind mentions on your blog, I am SO very proud to have been a part of your creative masterpiece, and I REALLY can't wait!

P.S. For anyone who read this and wondered what I meant about creative masterpiece, I highly suggest checking out Kunal's blog, he really is quite talented!!
He is one of my "favorite links" on the right side over there.

Anger Management

So guys...Guess what??
I haven't been sick for a couple of weeks now!! I am so happy!
I am watching Anger Management right now. I am wondering what the heck is going on. I don't know what is going on. I don't know what the point of the entire thing is. I don't know why I am continuing to watch it, I guess that I just REALLY want to know that it ends up all right. I don't want to keep watching but I just can't stop. What do you think of this movie?? Do you find it as bizarre and pointless as I do?
I was just wondering.
