That is all

On walks and the joy of an external hardrive

Tue, 17 Feb 2009 06:07:14 GMT

So I was looking through some of the old files on my external when I cam across a MyDocuments folder I had snatched from my family computer about when I got done with High School - the thing was littered with half started stories, drafts for papers, and two embarrassingly long documents made up of nothing but quotes.

And, to make a short story shorter, I found a poem.

So, I'm actually kinda proud of this poem; I wrote it without edits after completing a summer's midnight walk, and left it in a journal under my desk. Nearly three quarters of a year later, I was assigned to write a sonnet for my Lit class and, vaguely recalling the poem, searched for the journal and brought it in the next day, freeing up the entire class period I had to work on a poem.

A Night’s Walk

I am he that walks in the dead of night

While the sleeping living see not my blight

It is here that I ponder the wrong and right

With my path guided by the fair moon light

Since I walk in the night I ne’er need flee

Because the sleeping living can not see

Since I walk unobserved, am I not free

Free to be whatever I want to be

Free to be me, but then what would I do

Could I, being free, to myself be true

Would I forsake myself, and be made new

Black or white, what would be my soul’s true hue

I walk and wander in the dead of night

My path lit by naught but the pale moon light

So yeah... nothing too profound, but I liked it.

So close

I have an interview...

I started this damn thing over six months ago... knowing that chances are I wouldn't be accepted... and I still might not get it, and I'm scrounging, trying to make sure all my letters of recommendation get in, and part of me's scared shitless it won't get in on time and this will all fall on it's ass and all this time and money will come to naught...

But I have an interview....

So yeah... I made this account 'bout a month ago then proceeded to pretty much forget that it even existed. Actually, it is kind of weird writing this out, seeing as I know nobody on LJ, and thus it is highly unlikely anyone will read this for quite a while... and I've just noticed you can mark entries as Private and am now wondering what the point of making a post online if you don't want anyone else to see it.... I digress.

Anywho, woke up today to find myself with only a little bit of studying that I need to do and with a day that promises to actually feel like spring, and figured this was as good as time as any to start looking around LJ a bit.
