Ohwow. I think I commented your journal last week as well, but I can't really help myself. This poem really upset me, simply because I feel like I can really relate to it. I take it literally, in that there is a dying person laying before you, and you just want to freeze them in time to keep ( Read more... )

So we're getting closer and closer to our gigantic holiday break and it excites me endlessly. Meanwhile, drama plays are worrying me more than they should. Performing? Not a fan.

Anyway, here's my contribution for this week.

The Decision

Take me back to two weeks from now
When my conscience was clear
My hands were clean
And I could sleep at night

Take me ( Read more... )

Good job on this - I like that you were able to change the mood of the piece so subtley. I was like the more I read, the more I realised something was really wrong with the main character. I just have one question - did Mrs Hughes' son put her in the wheelchair? I assume so, ( Read more... )

I find it so strange that my best friend's sister is having a baby today. They're actually planning it's date of birth. I mean, it's a necessity because of the birth conditions or something, but I still find it strange that something so natural can be so intricately planned as well. I just hope everything goes well. This birth reminds me of my dad' ( Read more... )

Is this even the week we're in? Whatever.
This week, to say the least, has been completely terrible. Poor execution of assessments, some just left to collect dust under my bed until the night before they're due, lying to get out of my first shift this week, angsty parents, angsty sister, angsty self, potential computer viruses, and a rash on my ( Read more... )

I can't even name what it is I like about this poem, but I just do. Especially "To work his mind such as a bike". I guess I'd like to know what inspired you to write this poem? It makes me think of the things we've been reading lately, all these people contemplating life and getting so serious about what ( Read more... )

I've been thinking about this whole "thank you for sharing" thing that we discussed momentarily in tutorials. It made me think of being in year one, when we had these story books that we would write a one-page story in every week. Mostly, they were just crappy little recounts of our weekends or whatever. Mine consisted mostly of things about ( Read more... )

The last two lines of this poem hit me hard, because at first I didn't understand what kind of relationship was being written about, but then it was just so blatantly obvious after re ( Read more... )

late!post is late, and to be completely honest I don't have any reason other than I am really really lazy.

This week I want to go 'abandon ship' on responding to any sort of reading we've been doing. I just, no. Can't do it. Sorry. Completely over analysing and critiquing and everything after doing that goddamn essay.

Basically, I'm just going to use ( Read more... )
