Am about *this far* from trying to find HP6 online. I would buy the DVD in college to make up for it! But everyone on my f-list is squeeing about it, and I really want to see it and Mom is being all 'THERE ARE WITCHES'.

Also, my head hurts and I don't feel good right now. But it's a work day, so I'm getting hounded to work. Hm.

Okay. Going to finish this Latin assignment (best assignment I've had all year - I'm supposed to write a story about a Roman hero, so being me I naturally made her a) a girl and b) the daughter of Ares and also named her Lucia).  Then I'm going to clean my room, because it is really getting on my nerves now with it's supreme messiness, then do the bookcase in my room if I don't lie down and take a nap, and at some point I have to mow half the back yard.

And I owe Kat $10. Have to remember that.

Also, hopefully next Monday I will begin looking for a job. *crosses fingers*

Before I go! Anyone have poetry to recommend to me? I want more! One can never have enough poetry!

thanks!

ooh, pretty poems! I really like Fire and Ice by R. Frost, it's always been one of my favorites. And Trees! Joyce Kilmer was so good.

I really want to see it and Mom is being all 'THERE ARE WITCHES'.

But this movie comes Vatican approved! How can she not let you see it?

Also, good luck with the job! :)

EDIT: I second reading Fire and Ice by Robert Frost! I love that poem.

I don't think Mom cares much whether the Vatican approved it or not. D: It is very sad.

And yeah! I love Fire and Ice. XD

I was about to suggest finding it online, but good luck regardless!

Haha, I love your Latin assignment, it sounds fun.

But as far as poetry goes...nada. In fact, I'm the one leeching poetry recs off you right now anyways. *sheepish*

[be-themoon.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I found it online yesterday. It's really bad quality and I only got to watch a little bit, but I'm hoping I can watch the rest sometime today or tomorrow. *crosses fingers*

Yay subverting Ancient World misogyny! I guess the Greeks and Romans did have kickass girls but they always got railroaded somehow with sexist attitudes^tm

I love subverting misogyny! It is a hobby of mine. XD

DARLING, IT IS TIME TO CLIMB OUT YOUR WINDOW AND SEE IT WITHOUT YOUR PARENTS' KNOWLEDGE.

[be-themoon.livejournal.com]

DON'T I WISH. *pouts* I would go see without them knowing, but have no car and thus no way to get there. I considered asking Esther to take me, but a) she just left for Canada and thus I cannot now and b) she doesn't like the movies, just the books.

Which leaves me to watch it online without their knowledge and wait for college.

Poor baby.

May I assume on the poetry side that you haven't read any Henry Lawson? I totally recommend his poems.


If you think that your profession has the more gentility,
And that you are condescending to be seen along with me;
If you notice that I'm shabby while your clothes are spruce and new --
You have only got to hint it: I'm a prouder man than you!

:D

I also recommend "The Glass On The Bar" (http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-glass-on-the-bar/"), just beautiful.

[be-themoon.livejournal.com]

Ooooh, thank you! That is a beautiful poem. *sniffs* Sad, but so pretty.
