Sam! It's so wonderful to hear from you
I'm sorry I haven't been around in awhile - I'm in Lakewood, CO now, attending Colorado Christian University, and pursuing an English degree with a creative writing emphasis. Things have been quite hectic in my life.
You're certainly in my prayers! How are you fairing?
Blessings on you,

Thank you so much TFalcon. Your words are grace to me. Keep writing at will! Trumpets rock the melodic world!

I just wanted to say that the essay your mom wrote for you is so wonderful, and it's nice that you put it there. I felt that it did a very nice job introducing who you were.
Also, those analogies and metaphors that you have up there are absolutely hilarious, I just kept on cracking up!
You're a tlaented poet, and I will definately check in now and then and read your new stuff!

Oh yeah - my pic.
I HATE getting my picture taken! Senior pictures for about three hours and this was the last one taken. Frankley, I was a little annoyed by then

Hi
Yup, that's what the life of a military brat will get you  She doesn't write often, my Mom, but this essay came out one day . . .
Yes, I've had an interesting life (even after the initial eight years), but for the longest time I thought my life was boring. It's all perspectives. I looked at other people and wished that I could have done what they did - and I started thinking about all of the things I have done and was amazed
My writing style is quite ecclectic, so reading from my lists might prove an easier way of sifting through all of my work
Always nice to meet someone new
PS - BDU stands for Battle Dress Uniform (camo pant  )

Well, your mother seems like an artist, i read that whole essay and it sounds like you had an interesting first 8 years! though you look pretty surly in your picture.
I've probably not done any of the things in that essay! except build a snowman and met my family! I mean wow, its crazy, i cant ever imagine fitting that much into my life.
you are lucky, but i'm sure you know that
I guess while I'm ehre I'll read you
Oh and. what are BDU's?

those high school essay analogies and metaphors are priceless. And they are also really good. most entertaining read i have had all week.
-
hmmmmm....interesting analogies, if actually found in any high school essays, some kids are either stupid, are extremely talented. if not, they're still hilarious!
-
Hope you have a blessed Easter!!
 Sam

I came here to tell you, as Nando Tater did, that thoses excerpts from high school essays were hilarious!!
Ok, now this one just gave me the most interesting visual I've ever seen  :
McBride fell 12 stories, hitting the pavement like a Hefty bag filled with vegetable soup.
That one was just so...graphic!! They were all very funny and rather amusing to read!!  Thanks for adding a kick into my day, really, I needed it!!

Just waded through the excerpts from high school essays - if any of these were intentional (surely some had to be) I'd say there was some sort of comic brilliance at work.
"Shots rang out, as shots are wont to do."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Ahhh, these were lovely - thanks for digging them up.
-Nando-
-
geezzz...you have a brilliant record considering entry/trophy.
-
OMG you have definitely led an interesting life, I'm assuming the other 11 yrs of it have not been dull and boring - rather filled with excitement and lots of travelling 
-
Hmmm . . .
Characters:
Rand: for his 'humaness'
Matt: for charm
Perrin: for his loyalty
Min: because she is like me
Loial: He reads books!
Aviendha: for her strength
Egwene: because she has a good head on her shoulders
Elayne: because while at first she was fru-fru princess, now she has the makings of an honest Queen
There are so many wonderful characters - I'll probably continue adding to the list
"Scenes":
When Aviendha Goes through her Wise One test
Lines:
"Sa souvraya niende misain ye," he said aloud. "I am lost in my own mind." ~ Matrim Cauthon
What about yours?

Here's my Fav. line # 22, Too funny!!!!
