I’ve been thinking…
about a lot of things, actually. Mostly about summer time and the nearing end of school.
My summer bucket list:
- Hijack a car (check)
- Have a dance party in the street (check)
- Forget everything I have learned in school this year (check)
- Move to my own private island
- Get a job…ugh…
- Think of a job to apply for (pending)
- Set up a major Slip-n-Slide
- Slide down it
- Star Wars Marathon!
- Bike race with my dad!!
Inspiration
Every time I look for inspiration, I can’t find it. Every time I happen upon it, I forget to use it. Why is that so?
Well, here I am again, looking for inspiration…again…not able to find it…again.
Man, I should write these things down in the future.
Isn’t it interesting…
how time just flies so quickly,
how this school year is rapidly
coming to a close?
Where did time go?
Where does time go?
I think it goes to Facebook.
Oratory
In debate this year, I had the opportunity to write a 10-minute oratory, memorize it, and present it to my judges as part of my competition. They judged me based on my content and presentation. I ended up taking fourth in state with it.
Just a note, I changed it a little every time. Also, it is dedicated to Tanisha Barker–a great debater who would always get nervous when she spoke.
One for All
In this epitaph, One for All, inspiration came to me after (as cliché as it sounds) a dream I had about a little boy. I could not do anything to help him; however, in the end of my dream, as I draped flowers over his grave, I realized I wasn’t supposed to help him. In fact, he helped me; he helped all the future children by bringing attention to this serious problem.
A is for Attitude
I love the contrast of light and dark (even if it was not as subtle in this poem). This was a just-for-fun poem in Janka form.
