I love to watch the stars
Today was a great day. It was an early morning and a long day- but one of the best!
My awards thing went great, and my I got into my arm appointment early so that I was back to school in time to catch lunch and the bus. The bus... it was a very nice ride... one of the best in fact. The game was good- except that we lost... that sucks! If we would have won we would have had another great day tomarrow, but now, we have class and tests that I neglected. So I really should have studied for them the other night, but tonight is as good night as any. It is going to be a late night tonight for sure though, which sucks. And first hour is my Pre-calc test-----NOOO! I dont know how i am going to get through it, but i sure will try.
Other than that things are good. Tomarrow will be a calmer day, but probably not as fun as today... it feels so much like a weekend... but its only Wed. It sucks!! But I will live.
Tomarrow is a new day!
Thanks,
Katie

Poem of the Day
Stars
|
How countlessly they congregate
O'er our tumultuous snow,
Which flows in shapes as tall as trees
When wintry winds do blow!--
As if with keenness for our fate,
Our faltering few steps on
To white rest, and a place of rest
Invisible at dawn,--
And yet with neither love nor hate,
Those stars like some snow-white
Minerva's snow-white marble eyes
Without the gift of sight.

So today went by slow and i am pretty sure it is because i can't wait till tomarrow.... I am still waiting for it to be tomarrow! For me tomarrow is going to be one of the busiest days so far this year for me, and thats saying alot, because I have had some pretty busy days!
This would be my schedual for tomarrow for me:
I have an early morning with going to this recognition breakfast for the eassy i wrote. This breakfast is at 7:00 in the morning! Its early but they will be awarding me my savings bond and a medallion of some sort or something. It will the begining to a hopefully great day!
After that I have a therapy appointment for my arm at 10:00 and that is supposed to last an hour! We may have to cut my apointment short, so that i will be able to make it to the school and hitch a ride on the bus to go the game!
It is going to be one busy, awsome day!
The game is going to be one of the best parts of the whole thing! and then if we win! Another day of fun!! plus i really dont have to worry about doing school work!! Except the Pre-calc test i am supposed to have on thursday and then the AP Bio essay on thursday and then the AP Bio test on Friday... thats not much fun... but i really don't have to worry about those now!
So everything is pretty great!
Thanks,
Katie
Poem of the Day
Happiness
| |
Happiness is the smile that appears when your love walks through the door
It's the fact that everyday you love her even more
Happiness is smiling when nothing goes your way
Happiness is family when you've had a tired day
Where do you find happiness do you look up or down?
You find it in the mirror at the absence of a frown
Happiness can be described in so many different ways
So let's just hope when it finally comes it will never go away

I missed a day! i can't believe it ... i feel bad and at the same time i don't. One day is not that big of deal as long as it does not go on.
So today is pretty good, besides it being a monday that is. Wed. is only a couple of days away- yet it seems so far. I am looking forward to it so much... It is going to be a busy day, but a fun one!
So i am going to post another What is it? if I ever get time... it is really hard to get on the internet sometimes.
Thanks
Katie

Just when you thought it was possible
You were impossible
Those times you craved
You will always crave
Those wishes you have made
You will always make
You were so sure
But your let-down couldn't have been more unsure
Everytime you have tried
You have failed
You expected it all
But didn't want to expect it
After all, it only figured
Figured you could never be in your wrong mind
But you were right
The glass it always half empty
That is...if there is anything in the glass at all

Sweet Dreams and Happy Memories
Today we are going to celebrate my birthday, since my dad was in texas over my birthday--so that is going to be lots of fun. Though it is Saturday morning- I did not get to sleep in. After getting used to waking up early during the week, it is kind of hard to wake up late for me, especially since i went to bed earlier than usual too.
But things are really cool!
I got a part in the play. I think that it is a pretty big part, but i am not quite sure. I get to be an older laddy- and i am Katie j.'s mom! I think that it will be alot of fun and i ma looking forward to it!
Tomarrow we have a drumline show at Apollo - I hope that it goes well. The drumline is doing pretty well this year and we are having a pretty good time.
I hope that all it going well for you as it is for me,
Katie

Sweet Dreams And Happy Memories

Sweet dreams and happy memories,
A love that's good and true;
A home to care for tenderly;
A song to sing that's new
Sweet dreams and happy memories
And friends to join in mirth
Some tears to give to those who die,
And smiles to greet each birth.
Sweet dreams and happy memories,
To win a game or two.
The faith to know that Spring will come,
The strength to wait it through.
Sweet dreams and happy memories,
To do what there's to do
For joy is living day to day,
To make sweet dreams come true.

How it moves us all
Like the oceans throw
Moving us all forward
Towards endeavor and oblivion
Breathing in the images
Unstoppable
Undeniable
We sit and stare for eternity
Bending our minds
Taking our perception
Leaving us without depth
Or compassion to bare
Desensitized...
Demoralized...
Bonafide...
Zombified

This day is one of the greatest days in my whole, entire, life!! First off I just found out that I have been published in The High School Writer. It is a paper filled with writings by high school students… and I got my poem published! It is today’s poem of the day for that fact, so you better read it and give me some feedback on it.
Tonight is the Basketball game!!!!! I am looking forward to going to that, and having a great time!
There are other reasons why I am so happy, but you really don’t want to know about that, so all you really need to know is that I am a very happy person and I think that that is enough to say about that.
Like I said my dad is getting back this weekend and we are going to have a great time at his house. If I miss a day of writing my blog the world will not end, but I would be very disappointed in my self so I am going to try and type at least a little every day.
And so that is today!
Thanks
Katie
The Poem of the Day
My Published poem:
Unspoken Words
I am not loud enough to speak, not soft enough to whisper
I wonder why that makes me…Me
I hear what I want to say, but
I see it not spoken
I am not loud enough to speak, nor soft enough to whisper.
I pretend that I can fly away.
I feel the breeze on my face,
I touch the sky high above,
I worry that it may be real,
I cry when it’s not and I fall.
I am not loud enough to speak, nor soft enough to whisper.
I understand that I am my own person,
I say that I am me.
I dream fairy tales and horror stories.
I try to be what people want me to be,
I hope that I am not.
I am not loud enough to speak, nor soft enough to whisper.

So I only have time to type a little since my mom is only letting me be on for a little while. So the day is great! I am dissapointed that Mr. Siekenen hasn't posted the parts for the play, but that gives me something to look forward to for tomarrow. So tommarow is going to be great too... especiallly because of the Game! I am really looking forward to that!
Okay so Smart Kim won the What is it? And Matt won the one right after that- it was easy - so i am posting another one tonight!
Keep looking for it and don't be afraid to guess! You may just win! All you have to do is email me your guess!
So thats enough for today!
Thanks
Katie
Poem of the Day
Something Short and Sweet
Something of a surprise to me is
the threat of heaven still in your eyes
so here I sit struck dumb and sleepless
knowing that I have to say good-bye
later when you're gone when
I'm thick with this fever of missing you
I'll gently play my guitar
pluck the strings one
by one by four
and I'll cry

Tonight i tried out for the Spring play with Keisha and it went great---I am not worried about getting a part, so anything would be great, I think it would just be fun being in a play. So today went great and still is! Tomarrow he is going to post the results- hopefully- then i will be even happier- even if i get a tiny part.
Tonight i am going to the little-kid choir concert(middle-school) so that should be cool.
My dad is getting back this weekend and then i get see him for the first time in 2 monthes. I will get spoiled with the gifts that he is bringing and we are going to celebrate my birthday cause he missed it... I am having the greatest time!!
My older sister is over for the night and we are laughing it up about the stupidest things! And just being sibling-and having fun....I have alot of fun with my sisters alot more than even I would think!
All is great
Thanks
Katie.
Good Job Kim for guessing the What is it?! There is a new one up check it out!
I was looking for a poem with my older sister about happiness and this one came up and made us laugh so:
Poem of the Day
The Butterfly
Look, a butterfly. Did you make a wish?
You don't wish on butterflies.
You do so. Did you make one?
Yes.
It doesn't count.

So today was the start to a new Trimester. I will have more homework this trimester than I have had any other, but that is okay. We had drumline today till 9 and i think that we got alot done. Amanda is not the funnest person in the world, but she knows what she is talking about when it comes to playing. I had the funnest time rocking out though... Our shows are going be great. We have semi-finals at SCSU in a couple of weeks and then Finals in the cities after that. It's all so exciting!!
And then theres Pep-band on Thursday for the basketball game!! Like I said all is going great!!
So if you have nothing to do at the moment- check out at the bottom right the WHAT IS IT? because no one has yet to guess it and it can't be that hard- I wrote it myself infact... So guess away.
I was not that happy because instead of going to the concert I had to go to drumline practice. But i am hoping to join it.
All is well and great!
Thanks
Katie
Poem of the Day
Good Night
I look up through the tall dark trees,
The dark sky sets my mind at ease.
Softly singing the wind slowly blows,
Drifting lazily as it goes.
In this moment time stands still,
memories tend to wander where they will.
Lift my eyes and I can see,
A thousand stars shining down on me.
Peace and calm overtake my eyes,
I'll close them now 'till the morning when I rise.

I had a great time at the Yam Jam thing and then Alicia and I hung out at my house pretty much all the day. The breakfast was alright- washing dishes sucks!!! Next year- I am going to serve or do something else---- cause washing pots and pans at the end sucked! But Yam Jam was alright--
Tomarrow is the start to a new term and i am not looking forward to it much... Pre-Calc sounds like work and its first hour!!
Hope all is well
Thanks
Katie

You are blind like us. Your hurt no man designed,
And no man claimed the conquest of your land.
But gropers both through fields of thought confined
We stumble and we do not understand.
You only saw your future bigly planned,
And we, the tapering paths of our own mind,
And in each other's dearest ways we stand,
And hiss and hate. And the blind fight the blind.
When it is peace, then we may view again
With new-won eyes each other's truer form
And wonder. Grown more loving-kind and warm
We'll grasp firm hands and laugh at the old pain,
When it is peace. But until peace, the storm
The darkness and the thunder and the rain.

I try so hard to make things perfect and no matter how much i strive for perfection, my human nature screws something up and life is no longer the way it was.

ME:
Katie
I spend my life in my house
and with 2 brothers and 2 sisters
me the 2nd youngest with a younger sister
I love my dog--a miniture wiener dog
and though i have cats--they get annoying
My lil sister has a dog--a boston terrier--UGLY
Music is the revolver of my life
I play instruments of many types
I like to paint my life
and draw my friends
art is fun
sewing is great
i am attempting to quilt
Writing is something my soul demands
and my mind always tells me that i am hungry
especiall when i am bored
I sit waiting for someone to answer my unasked question
the world keeps turning
and i keep awake all the time
while
the
breeze
swoshes
past
my
hair

and check out my book club at www.booksrcool.blogdrive.com What is it?
Through generations and generations it lives on. Time has weathered it, yet it is its best friend. Though it weeps and pines for attention it lives content on it’s own. It makes the children laugh and the old cry with fond memory, yet it lives to make a difference in people’s lives. Through the generations it does change. From birth to death it changes constantly on an environmental clock that takes it through the fresh smell of spring, to the cold loneliness of winter. It’s a home for the homeless that roam free throughout the land. At it’s death it may still be used to house those that cannot live so off the land. The creation that it was, will never be again, and the one that was there, is gone forever. Though others alike will come, there is no twin. What is it 2?
As it comes alive, you think of the miracle and forget that this small beautiful creature not only gets life and breath but it will also go through the pains of living and the last breath of death. But at the moment all you see is the struggle for a first breath of something so small and so precious that you feel overwhelmed with love and affection. All you want to do is chase all the thought of pain and death from your mind, from your body, from the whole entire earth, until all you feel is this love. Shaking and moving, the life wants to spring from it, yet it’s contained in it’s jail, trying to break loose and become apart of the world like you or I. The funny thing is, it has been kept alive by the one thing that is trapping it. It’s a mystery. What’s inside? It’s like Christmas, you just want to rip it open and see what mystery God is hiding inside this gift to the Earth. The cycle that it is brought into will evolve and once again we will come across this point. And again we will wonder at the mystery and miracle of something so small compared to the world it lives in.
What is it 3?
It is the source of much life. Laying in wait for its food, it has the potential to be dangerous, yet without it, we would suffer. It's open-holed eyes stare out at us and, when there, its mouth gapes open, asking for the out put it so wishes to distribute. Sometimes we torture it - stuffing and gorging it until it cries out is hot, sparkling tears. And then, by our own stupidity, we regret it.
