The Queen of Light took her bow

ithikaAnd then she turned to go
The prince of peace embraced the gloom
And walked the night alone
Eh. Not sure what I'm saying here. Oh, but it was cold today.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
armygeek, I got your Neutrimetics stuff today. I would have sent you a message [more direct communication and all that] but I have no credit. Eh. So I'll bring your stuff with me... on some day when you'll be at uni? Or something? Yeah. I have exams on tuesday afternoon and wednesday morning, if that's helpful at all.
Oh, by the way, that last entry was needlessly angsty. Eh... angst is kinda pointless and futile, I've decided. But somebody's gotta do it. But my new policy is been there, done that, so I'm not planning on doing anymore angsting - it's not like I have anything in the world to complain about, so, out the window with the angst. That was a slight reference to something that possibly onlylone_one will get, by the way.
But yeah. Angst is stupid. Yesss. Right. Onward and upward, I say.
I will grin upon the first person to correctly identify the song that is stuck in my head and this entry.
I've been thinking about the Creative Writing Exam alot today [as you do], and I've decided that the whole idea of a "Creative Writing Exam" is fundamentally stunted intellectually. Especially with poetry. I mean, for example, This got a Daily Deviation at deviantART - obviously, the person who awarded it that was very impressed. But it didn't move me at all. I don't like it. So how can something like poetry, the quality of which is determined mainly by the reader's individual liking-or-not-liking of the piece, be marked as an exam? I mean, it'd be hard enough to mark assignments. Oh well. At least the people that run it all like fantasy writing.
What else... nothing really at the moment that I care to share. I wish the weather would warm up, sometimes. I don't think last winter was as cold - but then, I wasn't at home as much, either. I was in well-heated classrooms :P.

Date: 2005-06-19 09:03 am (UTC)Oh, I quite liked that haiku. The only one I've heard that made a lot of sense to me and created a pretty picture in my head. But I don't think I'd award it anything really.
COLD!

Date: 2005-06-19 09:48 am (UTC)True, I suppose. But if someone submitted that as their creative writing exam, would you pass them? Likely the words to that poem would have taken a long time to put together.
YES. Greater-than-or-equal-to, even.
