I Love this Poem

"When I Have Fears that I May Cease to Be" by John Keats 

When I have fears that I may cease to be
Before my pen has gleaned my teeming brain,
Before high-piled books, in charactery,
Hold like rich gardens the full-ripened grain;
When I behold, upon the night's starred face,
Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance,
And think that I may never live to trace
Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance;
And when I feel, fair creature of the hour!
That I shall never look upon thee no more,
Never have relish in the faery power
Of unreflecting love; then on the shore
Of the wide world I stand alone, and think
Till love and fame to nothingness do sink.

I'm a Bad, Bad Blogger

Ahh, it's been a month or so since I've posted. Almost a month. Something like that. Ugh, sorry. Funny thing is I don't have time to blog right now either so I just wanted to tell you quickly while waiting for me to blog next (which will be soon - I promise) to check out JOSH ROYSE on youtube. He is officially my new favorite musician and he isn't even signed or anything. But yeah. Check him out. Seriously.Argh, I'm having trouble copying links for some reason so I can't post links , but type in his last name on youtube and you'll find him. My favorite songs of his are...

"By the Way, I love you"

"Two Sides, Dear"

"Swear You Won't"

"Run to You"  (this is actually a cover)

Anything, yeah, I WILL BLOG SOON. 


EDIT: I just realized that this was my 100th post. YAY!!! Okay, that's all.

A (Not as) Massive (as I thought) Update

I have like a thousand things to update on. Let me see if I can remember everything. I promise I will have more frequent updates- I'm on Christmas break so I have three weeks of free time- woot!
Okay. I'm starting the updating...now.
NaNoWriMo. Wow. I had my mushy-gushy post over on my NaNo '07 blog, but let me again say here how unbelievable November was. I feel as if I have learned something new as a writer and that now my writing can mature from consistency of that month. Now, mind you, I unfortunately haven't written another word since November 29th (I finished a day early!!) but I plan to...I do plan to. Keep talking to me about it and then I will feel motivated to, I'm sure. Pressure always helps too, lol. Whatever needs to be done to get my butt writing!
So I watched the Titanic twice during November. I am like utterly obsessed now. It's such a cute movie. I love it. Don't make fun of me, lol. I hear the mocking laughter now.
Speaking of movies, I have been watching a ton of movies lately so let me list some of the ones I've seen recently and comment a little bit.
- Catch Me If You Can - I LOVED it. It was awesome. Definitely a movie I'll rewatch.
- Man in the Iron Mask- Eh. It was all right. I'll never watch it again. Leonardo was in it so I was happy to watch it, but it wasn't a great movie. I think I fell asleep in the middle.
- Loves Comes Softly- This is such a cute movie! It's a western romance set in like pioneer times kind of and it's just really simple and romantic. It's one of those movies that I can rewatch a lot and it doesn't get old really.
- Loves Enduring Promise - This is the sequel to Loves Comes Softly. This is about the daughter, Missie. I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. I just adore how simple these movies are!! They are so romantic though! And Nate/Will - ah *dies*. He's adorable. Missie and him are adorable. The next movie is "Love's Abiding Joy." I'll be watching that soon.
- The Aviator - I was so confused during this movie, you have no idea. It probably didn't help that I was watching it only at night while falling asleep but these movies confused the heck outta me. It was okay. It might have been better if I had understood it. It had its good parts though.
That's all the movies I can remember. What else...
I got a Borders gift card from my lovely Uncle Glen and Aunt Febe. :) I purchased a box set of the His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman. It's actually the linked set exactly. I also got The Looking Glass Wars by Frank Beddor. I've already started the Golden Compass. I'm on chapter six, page 87. It's really absorbing! I love it so far. It really sucks you in. Pullman writes brilliantly. I'm amazed at how silly people are being over all this controversy that the book is apparently causing. People need to get over it. Don't even get me started about it. Those of you who have talked to me recently knows how worked up I get about censorship over books. Ugh. When I'm done with the trilogy, I'll be posting a major book review/rant about idiotic followers who despise the books.
Okay, moving on.
Meg will be here in like...9 days!! (Is that right? The 26th?)
I'm excited! We're going to have so much fun!
I know I have so much more to talk about, but I'm blanking right now so I'll have to blog again
when I remember!
