I forgot to mention, I came in first place for the 11th grade for the Edison Arts Society poetry contest. if you're in the Edison/Metuchen area on April 14th at 7 and want to head over to Barnes and Noble, check it out- I'll be there, reading, and hopefully this lyear (I won the 10th grade last year) there won't be all the "I cry on the inside ( Read more... )

Do you want a gmail invite? I have 50 lying around and they're pretty reliable. :/ I edited it MSWord and used the nifty "notes" feature so OMB please say your computer can read that. :X

I just can't get into my email. The GMail thing might be nice, I'm just worried I'll get behind. So maybe I'll use GMail just for le writing stuff since that always takes up so much space.

Thanks (Gmail and the editing).

herm, all right. I don't know when they'll let you in so um, I could set one up for you? (basically I send an email to you with the invite but obviously that won't work.) tell me what you want and I'll just give you the info through a screened comment. :)

alrighty- I'm trying to think of a witty email name as we speak. it will probably be a song lyric. on my way.....

motorscooter?
weakerthanyou?
CanadianCourtney?
sixstagesofawkward?

rargh. rageagainstyou. (but not you you) poopface. (again, not you you) I don't know. my mind has shut down and gone into suspended animation. if any of this strikes you as particularly moi, just set it up I guess.

yearning for squalor, maybe? this is beyond me; im afraid to offer suggestions. you, of course, continue to amaze me.

yo! anonymous March 26 2005, 15:44:46 UTC

some thoughts on your poem, since we don't have ahs.

- i like a yearn for squalor.

- why would you set fire to the world atlas if you want maps? sorry if i'm being dense. but i like the hollow smoke prayers, that is brilliant.

- i don't like the looking up looking down at me thing. no particular reason, just seems like something that vaguely sounds intelligent but you know in heart it really doesn't amount to anything. i know this because i write like this.

- the railroads confuse me.

- don't use map out. you could say show maybe.

otherwise, it's a good poem. it makes me both sad and frustrated for young courtney.

oh yeah and bob dylan is totally badass and as per your remark i will consequently burn you a mix cd.
