FEELS

Do you ever get that feeling, when you're watching a show or movie, like it's the best thing in the world but it's also destroying you inside and you can't even deal with it?

Because that was me, on this lovely summer night.

In case you were wondering, I was watching the third season of Orange is the New Black. When I say season, I mean the last half of the season. And it was TOO. FREAKING. MUCH. I'M ONLY HUMAN! MY POOR LITTLE SOUL CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS! 

It could have been worse, though. When I watched the first half of the season, I literally pummeled my couch because the feels were too much.

Ummm it's almost 2 AM and I'm out of things to say. Oops...

It Was A Terrible Assignment Anyway

     It's fairly typical of me to scroll through my Google Drive when I'm bored. Just now, I came across a file in my Schoolwork folder titled "DAMN YOU, HAWTHORNE!" 
     Before I get to the point here, I feel like I need to say that I was a TERRIBLE student last year. My worst problem was the same as many other students: Procrastination. In the case of one particular essay in my American Lit class, I procrastinated until three months beyond the deadline. That's right. THREE. FREAKING. MONTHS. I finished the essay the night before the final late work deadline. 
     This essay happened to be about The Scarlet Letter. If you know Hawthornian writing, you understand why I REALLY didn't want to write this essay. To make matters worse, I needed four sources which discussed my theme of choice. Obviously, I was not having a good evening.
     Most teachers, in my experience, will tell you that organizing your thoughts before you write your essay is essential. Up until that night, with a week to go before the end of the school year, I did not take this particular piece of advice. But desperate times call for desperate measures. And my situation was the very definition of desperate. So I made a list of ideas. The following are my last four thoughts on the matter.
  • stories are dense
  • they make everyone want to cry
  • screw Hawthorne
  • screw the Puritans   
     So It was fitting that I named my document "DAMN YOU, HAWTHORNE!" It basically summed up 90% of the thoughts running through my head as I wrote my frantic essay.

     And I still got a B+.

Like Seriously. I Have School Tomorrow.

I'm up too late. (big surprise)

So I wrote a poem.

     I sit in my room
     Eyes open, mind alert. How
     Am I still awake?


Basically the summary of my life right now.

Hello There!! ^.^

So I've decided to start a blog. A proper blog, where I talk about life and random crap that runs through my head and movies I've watched and places I'm traveling and it's most likely going to be a complete cluster-eff. (in the best way possible) I'm not exactly sure what I'm trying to do here, to be perfectly honest, so I'm just going to see where it takes me.

Here are some fun facts about me:
  • I'm 15 years old 
  • I'm a junior in high school (wonderful... -_-)
  • I love writing...
  • ...and dance
  • ...and theater
  • ...and piano
  • ...and talking
  • ... and friends
  • ...and sarcasm
  • ...and terrible puns
  • I make YouTube videos (sometimes)
  • This is my channel, if you're curious:  
  • https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZnpdwVNdQa6NB92XMHTjXA
  • I like cool/weird lists
  • I spend too much time on the internet (obviously)
  • And, last but not least, my reason for the name of this blog: 
  • I drink too much coffee!

Welcome to what is probably going to get either really crazy or really neglected.

Catch ya later!!
