It's been long enough for me! Four months is too much at first. I didn't know what to do with myself, really. Overall it was a great summaaa. It simmered and sizzled and fizzled at times. All around goodnessz.
It's 3:20pm EST, and I have slept too much and eaten too little. I am home alone, with goals I haven't worked towards. These goals being "A Clean Room" and "Move into C's old room." I just got to do it on my own time, Mom.
I look forward to Fall, and the changes it will bring. I plan to change things. What I can, at least.
Sound the bell
Soon soon soon
The sun has fell
On and under the Earth
We are asleep now
For the season of the sun
Has come and gone
And now
We are to hide
All traces of warmth
Inside our pockets
In our seams
Around our hearts
To keep us during the cold
Streets of people
Taking a last stroll
Hoping not to lose
This freedom that comes
With the season of the sun
And faces of ease
Bodies of please
Find, search for the light
For the heat
As if it is the only
Fuel for our lives
But we forget
That the sun does not leave
But for a while
Away with fret
He will come back again
See you later!

Short Story of 55 Words (plus 20)
This is an exercise we did once in 12th Grade Writer's Craft. Write a short story consisting of only 55 words. You should try it.
Intent on making the evening pleasant, he slipped his arm around her, the umbrella in his other hand already open, shielding them both. "Mademoiselle," he announced.
She looked up at him, unconvinced, somehow knowing there was something he was concealing. She then realized how lost and lonesome he really was. Aware now, "D'accord," she said.
I then added 20 more words to the story - this happens later on in the couple's rainy evening.
Understanding his yearning, she allowed him to embrace her. Knowing it was all she could allow herself to give him.

somethin' new
I've been tired of what's been up lately. So I thought if I did something like start a new blog, I'd feel slightly refreshed.
Alors, it is sunny, and 20 degrees out. The downside? It's exam time. I'm scared, and I can't think straight. I'm just going to be really honest here. I'm quiiiiite nerveuse. If I don't get shit done tomorrow... Ahhhhh!
It's still a cloudy day since I can't enjoy the sunshine.
My eldest sister is vacationing in Cuba and I ... am here. Clouuuudy!
