Hello

Don't bother getting up,
I'm just here to write a little post.
Nothing more than a "Hey" or "What's up?"
There is no need to be a host. 

hey!

Just thought that I would write something. heh....but I got nothing to say!

Just Sayin' "hi"

Just posting because I have a spare minute.


But only a minute.

Just Because

I love to blog. It is here that I am free of all rules and fears. I don't have to think about what it is that my professor wishes to read. I don't have to think about the laws that ivory tower scholars have set in place. I don't even have to think about whether to use affect or effect because in the blogsphere, there is a willing suspension of such expectations.

This is where true creativity can live.

This is not a cry against rules. This is not a post against proper grammar. This is not a piece throwing stones at the ivory tower. This is a reminder that there are still avenues where creativity can exist! A blog is one of them! 

Over the past week, I have been spending a major amount of time working on a literary analysis. Hours was spent slaving over a book and endless check sheets to make sure that the paper is what it is supposed to be. After completing such a paper, I was reminded how much I enjoy writing. I also realized that I have an outlet to do that, and for it, I am very grateful. 

I think that anyone who has to write papers should have a blog. Because

This is where creativity can live.

Nice Day

I have had a pretty good day today. I went to a county fair for the first time in quite awhile. Fairs haven't changed much since I went last: Scary rides operated by even scarier people, the smell of fried...well...everything, and the skull-cracking loudness of the music (too graphic?). Yet, I had a blast.

You know,it really doesn't matter where you are, it's the people you are with (yes, I know, I'm ending a sentence with a proposition). For any of you who know me, you will know that the above description is not exactly the place where I would spend my time,but I was with some awesomely cool people and that's all that mattered.

Would I go again? Yeah, if the right people are there.

Cello

Heart and Soul

The Cello.

The cello, with its rich sound and vibrant tone, it is truly God's gift to me. Sliding a bow across it's tightly wound strings, music begins to fill the air with the purity of sound that can only be surpassed by the human voice. Music is brought to a surpassing greatness when produced from such an instrument as this; almost as if music was created just for it. It needs no electricity, no amplifier, only skill to make it sing.

That's why I love it.
