Hound I used Word Nerd today and got this word. I was almost going to find another one – it was so difficult for me to think about where to find this word (I am not a dog owner, nor did I have a thought towards embodying this verb). For a while, I thought I […]
Childhood Photojojo has given me the excellent [and probably totally obvious] creative idea that connects words with pictures! Ahaha!I previously was going to do a story based on a picture [which sounds cool, but is actually pretty high maintenance for someone like me who has a lot of story ideas bubbling around even without external […]
I believe that this week is Speak‘s “darkest.” Cancellations, illnesses, and the juggling of stricter performances with prop finding and tech meetings are all attempting to pound me into the ground. Yet I put my faith in that dawn that will inevitably come; how to drag it into being is the real task.So today was […]
(…the picture above is one that I took in my mini-photo shoot yesterday – I just came home and I definitely don’t have time to create a new one. So sue me, if thou canst!) Here are today’s highlights:New dawn, new day, but what is to come of it? A soft rain falls from the […]

Throughout the class, we gathered many writing exercises that help you unlock your own work (it’s very similar, actually, to analyzing published works in English class – I just never thought of applying the same […]
I feel. I really do.I’m not sure why, but today has been one of changing emotions. I felt so good just to be at the end of the week and having accomplished something with my cast and having worked out most days of the week… then it came crashing down when my oral spiraled away […]
I wish I could photograph sound, because I have been listening to John Legend’s first CD [Get Lifted] over and over again in my car, at my house and in my head… My goodness, so much soul music! It preserves me emotionally.There is really little to say otherwise. Here is the latest on my Goal […]
That’s it. I’ve been converted.Heathy (a long long time ago) sent me a sampler of three types of loose leaf tea, and so I asked my dad for the best Valentine’s Day gift ever: a tea ball.So I have now opened both the Darjeeling and Earl Grey teas, smelled their deep aroma and gazed at […]
