June 16: See 2002/2003, I've added essays, movie reviews and a few comments. Some links have changed, if anything is amiss, please send me an email!

Book List #3 is up complete with 'snippet reviews' of each book.

2003

2002

October/November/December Essays:

A movie review titled: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets: from the perspective of a fanatic and a very short "analytical essay".

A movie review on the 2002 version of the Count of Monte Cristo

A version of Jocasta's death, from the play Oedipus.

Ugh (again), this has to be quite horrible, I really didn't like it, but my grade was just under the highest grade you can recieve despite the fact I wrote it in under an hour. On The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka, here's the even shorter essay for your reading convenience.

Ugh, how many ways can you say 'insane'? I tried for a few in a (short)Hamlet essay I wrote for English. It was repetative, but for some reason I had one of the highest grades you can recieve, so yay me. Also required was a poem descirbing how Hamlet felt after he learned of Ophelia's death. From Hamlet's POV (and I think I did a good job on it too!)

Book List for 2002 is up. (April 2003: And complete)

I was reading Macbeth and came across a line that just struck at me as being a bit humorous. So I wrote it into (or at least tried to) a commercial with the intent of humor... I'm still not sure if I hit on the mark or not. Well, do enjoy!

Okay, so I was ditzing about, looking at all these old school assignments that I've written. Reports, movie reviews...you know what I'm talking about. And so I end up coming across The Creation of the Sailboat and suddenly I'm thinking, "wait, I didn't put this up yet? I thought I did!" and so I probably did, but it most likely got deleted or some other such thing while I was reorganizing. So. Enjoy!

I wrote Into The Snow last year when it was during the really cold, depressing, very-little-to-no-sun-and-wayyyyyy-too-much-nevando part of the year. Hope you enjoy it... :o)

Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater was something I wrote last year around Halloween time when I was supposed to be working on a report or something like that. It's based off the old nursery rhyme, but with the twist being that one of Peter's grandsons is trying to mimic the old rhyme, only it doesn't go as well as he expected...

The Healer from Sayorn is something from one of my own universe. I've been trying to work with Saraell for awhile now, but she's being rather stubborn, apparently, she doesn't like being written about.

After the Tournament is a fanfiction I wrote about Cedric Diggory and how he reacts to being dead. It's the last few chapters of Book Four from Ced's perspective, and part of an imaginary book Five from Harry's.

My Stomach Speaks. Dear Lord, I remember when I came up with this monstrosity. I was sitting in 9th Grade Science working on something having to do with bringing numbers down to absolute zero... or was it that? Oh well, shows how much attention I was giving to the teacher. We'd been working on the subject for more than a week and I was bored out of my mind! I was also very hungry which is how this conversation came to be.

To Fly With Birds... decided to be written after I had convinced myself that I was on a rather warm beach with nice ocean breeze keeping the bugs away, when in reality it was raining and I was rather chilled. So this is a written attempt to convince myself that I was a lively little swallow and I was enjoying the freedom of flight and a warm day.

I wrote Grandmother when we visited my mom's mom. It was just us girls hanging around and I was sitting in an old rocker, becoming rather sentimental and wishing that I could hold onto a moment forever, so I pulled out a notebook and tried to capture some of it on the page.

Book list 1 and Book list 2 are each lists of all the books I remember reading in the last two or three years. Book list 1 has more titles, but not everything because I'm still coming across titles that I recognize. Book list 2 is from the year 2001 and is a bit edited since I'm not including all the newspaper articles, columns and individual writings that I've read in newspapers and magazines and on the internet. I should include Cassandra Claire's series, so look for that on the links page because they are certainly large enough to consitute a novel!
