You should know me better than that. I’d hate to be one of my characters.

Yeah, that matches what I’ve read. The thing I find interesting, and scary, about it is that since no one knows what caused it, we couldn’t prevent it from happening again. So theoretically we could have another flu outbreak and all die anytime.

That sounds like a…[Read more]

@valtmy 😛 I think I’ll use it very soon!

Haha 😀 one of my WWI ideas involves the actual Spanish flu wiping out all the characters who manage to survive the war.

Or maybe not that drastic.

Hello! I’m watching a movie and researching tuberculosis. Not for the purpose of torturing characters or anything, of course.

@kaya-young I just watched the video this morning (and commented 😉 ). You are SO GOOD at hula hooping! I was impressed 😀

@dekreel Oh, and your sentiments regarding Rime of the Ancient Mariner, (“well written and interesting, but bizarre and hard to understand”) are basically my thoughts on Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey. 😉 So I know exactly where you’re coming from. 😛

@dekreel I see. 🙂

My favorite book poem is The Courtship of Miles Standish.  I haven’t read many, though. (Unless you count Shakespeare.)

I’ve got to go now.  I hope to see you around again soon!

@rochellaine  Yep. That’s where it’s from.

It’s pretty interesting and quite well-written, but kind of bizarre and hard to understand. I haven’t been studying it hard enough to write a good analytic essay about it. XP

Eh, long-story poems aren’t my favorite thing in the world, but they’re cool.

@dekreel Hello!

I’ve never fully read the Rime of the Ancient Mariner.  The only part I know is the famous “Water, water everywhere, nor any drop to drink” line. (That is from there, isn’t it? 😮 ) Is it an interesting story?

Do you like long story-poems?

Well, I disappeared. . .

What’s the essay topic?

@rochellaine  It’s a literary analysis essay on Rime of the Ancient Mariner, which I still need to study. XP

I think what was funny was at the time I found it I’d just been having a long discussion about MBTI with you, so the difference was startling.

Ha, I see. . . Yes, things have definitely chan…[Read more]

@seekjustice Congratulations!  I’m sorry I was unable to let you know yesterday, but I was praying for you.  I didn’t have my computer with me all day and couldn’t tell you so. (Got the email notification on my phone.)  Anyway, I’m really glad you passed! 😀 😀

@seekjustice Yay, congratulations! 😀

@Catwing @jenwriter17

Thanks so much! I passed, so I am now qualified to drive a car by myself 😉

@seekjustice Oh, I’ll be praying! Let us know how it goes 😉

@seekjustice Praying for you. 🙂

Oh and I forgot @jenwriter17

In a few hours I’m goingfor my driving test and I’d love it if you guys would pray for me!

@rochellaine @kaya-young @dekreel @seekjustice @valtmy @ariel-ashira @alia @dragon-snapper Anyone on? I’m working on outlining and blog posts. 🙂

@dekreel What’s the essay topic?

😛 Yeah, I know.  It’s not really strange that you know more about a given subject now than you did a while ago.  I think what was funny was at the time I found it I’d just been having a long discussion about MBTI with you, so the difference was startling. 😉

@rochellaine  I’m theoretically writing an essay, but I’ve been getting quite distracted. . .   -_-

*squints*   And do tell, what’s so funny about it? I’ve changed, that’s all, if that’s what you mean. 😛
