The Queen of Light took her bow

[ithika]

And 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. 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 only lone_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.

Repay, do not forget, no, no.
Oh - dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morning light.

The apples turn to brown and black,
The tyrant’s face is red.
Oh the war is common cry,
Pick up you swords and fly.

The sky is filled with good and bad,
That mortals never know.

Oh, well, the night is long,
The beads of time pass slow,
Tired eyes on the sunrise,
Waiting for the eastern glow.

The pain of war cannot exceed
The woe of aftermath,
The drums will shake the castle wall,
The ring-wraiths ride in black - ride on.

Ah, that's fine. I'm connected to the internet again, so I was able to get your message. I have a maths exam on Wednesday morning. Or, if you're coming in arbitrarily, tomorrow morning is my biology exam.

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!

I think it's safe to say that this is my favourite Led Zep song thus far.
*nods* they are all very pretty lines.

Ah, good good. Well, I have to, uh, watch one of the movies that'll be in my Egnlish [I'm not correcting that] exam on Wed, (for the first time that is) so I'll be going down to Uni tomorrow. Meet you at UniSFA, uhm, 12.30ish? I'm assuming it's a 3 hour exam. Or in fact at the same place we met up after the psych exam, whichever's better.

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.

My favourite song is either Kashmir or Achilles' Last Stand. Depends what mood I'm in.

The English113 exam was my BEST EXAM EVER last year. I mean, I went in a WROTE A STORY for almost 2 hours, then wrote a two pages during which I got to demonstrate SHOWING NOT TELLING, which meant MORE STORY :D IT WAS SO AWESOME (dude, a 12page story) AND THE BEST PART WAS THAT VAN IKIN PHOTOCOPIED IT FOR ME ♥♥♥

Sorry I haven't been here in a while. I have been in bed DYING!

I think I recall it... it's very fuzzy. Annoying as well... (the thing I may know).

[bloodied-aura.livejournal.com]

Oooh, that sounds quite impressive/awesome.
I wrote two stories also.. I found it quite fun. Which is sort of a scary thing... Exam=fun? Eh?
