Hmm...
Two things have happened recently.
1. I've started a poem about the Three Wierd Sisters from Shakespeare's Macebeth, but I've reached a bit of writer's block. So far, it's about how they know the prophecies and how they feel about Macbeth's betrayal. The second might be what they do after the play, but I haven't finished the play yet either. Here it is anyway. The three dots are just marking where I'll add the rest.
Prophetic dreams plague our nights
Makes us hagard
Distorts our features
Over the millenia we have tried to use our gift for good
But the years have twisted us
Made our purposes darker
Made us forget our original goal
Now we watch tell truths to others
Our cryptic mannerisms puzzle and confuse them
Then we watch them struggle
Watch them turn on each other
Laugh as they listen rapt to the serpent
Snicker as they bite into the apple
Now the blood flows dark from their deeds
And they struggle with the consequences

"Fair is foul and foul is fair"

...

"Through the fog and filthy air"
2. I'm considering summer colleges and finally found one I might apply for. (Two actually). Anyways, the only problem is that it's in Stanford, California. And I don't know how much it is yet. The other is at Harvard (almost an entire country closer), but it's QUITE a lot of money. Somewhere in the range of my entire high school education... See my problems? I could use a hand here.
In other news, quarterly assessments are coming this week... I DON'T WANNA DO THEM!!!! But they will give me more time for art and writing, so I guess I'll be able to take them another year and a half...
Well, that's it for now. Do your usual, whatever it may be.
