In first we talked about some truely amazing poems the first being living in sin:

Living in Sin

She had thought the studio would keep itself; no dust upon the furniture of love. Half heresy, to wish the taps less vocal, the panes relieved of grime. A plate of pears, a piano with a Persian shawl, a cat stalking the picturesque amusing mouse had risen at his urging. Not that at five each separate stair would writhe under the milkman’s tramp; that morning light so coldly would delineate the scraps of last night’s cheese and three sepulchral bottles; that on the kitchen shelf among the saucers a pair of beetle-eyes would fix her own— envoy from some village in the moldings . . . Meanwhile, he, with a yawn, sounded a dozen notes upon the keyboard, declared it out of tune, shrugged at the mirror, rubbed at his beard, went out for cigarettes; while she, jeered by the minor demons, pulled back the sheets and made the bed and found a towel to dust the table-top, and let the coffee-pot boil over on the stove. By evening she was back in love again, though not so wholly but throughout the night she woke sometimes to feel the daylight coming like a relentless milkman up the stairs. yeah i know awesome right??? I really liked another one we read though… this one was yesterday. It’s called To the Virgins to make much of time TO THE VIRGINS, TO MAKE MUCH OF TIME. by Robert Herrick GATHER ye rosebuds while ye may,     Old time is still a-flying : And this same flower that smiles to-day     To-morrow will be dying. The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,     The higher he’s a-getting, The sooner will his race be run,     And nearer he’s to setting. That age is best which is the first,     When youth and blood are warmer ; But being spent, the worse, and worst     Times still succeed the former. Then be not coy, but use your time,     And while ye may go marry : For having lost but once your prime     You may for ever tarry. Again amazing. I’m finding myself falling in love with poetry more and more everyday lol. Thanks Millie Adams!!! Lets move on: 2nd was a drag… but fun cause mrs. fox is really funny. 3rd is my second favorite class of the day… simply because i get to  SING MY LUNGS OUT I really love the songs we are singing… most of them anyway except for Fences the music is really hard and Vannoy teaches it so it’s pretty much a bust! Now on to fourth: my favorite class of the day… aka AP BIOLOGY! We started plants today… YAY… not It was actually pretty interesting and after we got done with notes everyone had to finish questions assigned to us the previous day. Which was yesterday, for those who don’t get time… ok moving on I finished my questions YAY! so i moved on to some pretty sweet drawings of amoebae and things of that nature :/ kinda boring but my pictures are pretty lol. After school I went to Lauren’s, as usual, and we just chilled. As I like to say, we were getting our “Carpe Dieum” on lol ok ok i’m sorry enough with the dorkiness.   THIS was my day, boring but fun, read my poems… tell me what you think!!!!   Until then, CARPE DIEM
