Leaving Home
Last night at nine fifteen, I picked up my friend Craig from his house, like we used to do in high school, and drove to that very same high school. Of course, it was very dark, which was exactly what we wanted. It was Craig’s last day in town, and we were determined to make it count. Continue reading “Leaving Home”
Things a’gonna change
Since my blog today was short (even though I also gave you a bonus vid of farmer’s market) I thought I’d post a little update/housekeeping blog. Also, I need to kill time because I’m supposed to pick up lunch but I’m not hungry yet. So… yeah. Continue reading “Things a’gonna change”
Random thoughts of the day
I decided, after nursing my morning Tylenol PM hangover, that I really needed to work on my book. I haven’t for about a month. I also decided that I needed a change of scenery, and because there was some bizarre traffic issue and I got all turned around and went halfway to the mountains, I finally stumbled into Barnes and Nobles, my school year haunt. Continue reading “Random thoughts of the day”
A rant of poetic proportions
Hello, college
Why yes, I would
love
to major in creative writing.
But what?
You have no freshman classes for me?
That’s fine, I’ll just take a-
Wait. What do you mean,
you don’t have any freshman english classes?
None?
I could understand no creative writing
I have to earn that.
But none at all?
None?
Zero?
That word strikes fear into my heart
Like Chase the creeper velociraptor
(thanks Chad).
But thank you,
college,
for offering ultimate frisbee as a class.
There may be space in my heart
to forgive you.
An Open Letter to my Roommate
Dear Jenn,
Hello. We are going to live together for a year. You’re from Hawaii, I’m from Colorado. And our lives are converging in Oregon. So I thought I would write you a letter giving you a little insight on what you’ve got to expect from me next year. Because a year is a really long time.

[Day 327] Books that changed my life week 3: A Great and Terrible Beauty
The title of this post is so long the “[Da” is missing. Oops. It’s a wonder I tweet so much- character limits are not really my thing. None of this is relevant to the post, but I need something for the front page blurb, and I’m running out of creative ways to make them interesting and compelling enough. Continue reading “[Day 327] Books that changed my life week 3: A Great and Terrible Beauty”
[QUICK!] Questions?!?
So I’m browsing around the internet, trying to decide what my next theme week will be, and I got an idea. Would you all be interested in a week of story beginnings? Like, I’d give you the first scene or chapter of a story that I’ll probably never finish but think are cool anyways. It’d definitely be a writing stretch for me. Would that interest you at ALL?
What about a “How To” week? It could be cool/funny/insightful. I actually like that one. I’m doing it NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY.
And just because I’m kind of killing time, here are my top books series that you should check out.
1. Harry Potter. Duh.
2. A Great and Terrible Beauty. If you like magical victorian age stories and sarcasm. Also, if you are a girl.
3. The Princess Diaries. Don’t judge me. These books are hillarious and surprisingly honest.
4. Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Same as above, although less hillarious.
5. Song of the Lioness quartet. Alanna the Lioness was the first in this series. If you’re a girl and like medieval fantasy, this is for you.
kaljfakfha I have to meet my mom at the burrito place now. Ciao!
[Bri 2.0 BONUS!] Harry Potter vs. Twilight
A few days ago, after my Marooned Week blog about Harry Potter, an anonymous commenter requested that I spend some time discussing the Harry Potter/Twilight controversy. “Could you please do a blog on the whole Twilight vs. Harry Potter debacle? For example the popularity of the movies vs the books etc.” Continue reading “[Bri 2.0 BONUS!] Harry Potter vs. Twilight”
