When There's Nothing to Say

I must confess that there are about a million other things I should be doing, which mostly involves studying for my final exams. However, I still have three days to review. Without much motivation to actually study, I've decided the best course of action is to blog. Can you tell I watched Star Trek again today? Spock's speak patterns are quite easy to pick up. Thankfully I'll never be a Vulcan because I have far too many emotions for that.

I'm slated to take the SAT II exams next Saturday, which is going to be a hot mess. I haven't seen a good deal of the material on the Math I exam in years, and I didn't take AP English Literature. Hence, taking the Literature practice tests have destroyed what little confidence I had on either. Whoever said the math exam was easy is a liar. Unfortunately, I did some practice exams online for US history and probably should have signed up for that. I'm not certain why, but I have the magnificent ability to guess and make up my way through history. Thanks, AP European History. You taught me something!

School has reached a point in which no one wants to do anything, yet we're all supposed to be doing something. A breaking point of sorts, I suppose. I have two days off in between review day (Monday) and my first exam (Maths, Thursday), so I'm hoping to have fun doing things in addition to studying.

There's nothing for me to say today, really. In the spirit of literature... here's a terrible poem.


I cannot remember when the sky turned black,
Nor when the lights from far away turned on,
All I know is the knowledge that I lack,
And the time once possessed is forever gone.
Someday memories of today will fade,
Into a tapestry of forgotten hopes and dreams,
Coloured with the finest hues of every shade,
Bleached together with warm sweet sunbeams,
Yet now pressing matters fill my days,
With nonsense produced by assumptions rash,
If only those could do what they may,
Rather than strike with verbal lash,
Then peaceful silence could we simply lay,
Dreaming of simpler dreams once our lives.
