By the way, I'm not sure if I spelled it correctly... the title, that is. In third grade (or maybe it was fourth) we actually had to learn how to spell it. But ah well, that was a long time ago!
Did you know that sonnets are really annoying to write? I'm supposed to write one for Creative Writing, but I'm having the hardest time with it! Okay, so maybe the problem is that I'm trying to write it in iambic pentameter... It's supposed to be written in iambic pentameter. I'm having a bit of difficulty with the rhyme scheme too, but not as much. Maybe if I stop trying to write it in iambic pentameter it wont be so difficult? I mean, we're not supposed to for the class. Just sonnets are generally written like that. Blah! I need to stop ranting about this right... NOW.
Oh yes, today I made up three characters (it was all today, because I made them up at midnight. Though technically when it turned midnight, it went back to eleven o'clock... now isn't that confusing? Stupid time change...). Anyway, their names are Deryus Sigik, Camina Fysk and Jehan Takyr (I might change Jehan's last name though...). Deryus is a mercenary by trade. With his black hair and heart, he can make you shrivel under his icy glance, thus incapacitating you to the point where you're useless against his swift and deadly attacks! Camina on the other hand is carefree and easy going, always finding the silver lining on the clouds and able to enjoy the little things is life, even though she can be totally clueless at times. Jehan is not like Deryus or Camina in any way--he's a fire eater by trade, a clever trickster that can entrance you with his fiery conjugations and pull you in with smooth words until you're right in the palm of his hand... he's also very flirtatious, so watch out for him!
Oh, yes, a word on the Halloween Dance. It was a fantastical success! Even though I felt absolutely miserable, it was still lots of fun (at least for others). I think the only downside was having to work in the Fear Factor room. That didn't work out very well for me at all! When you walked in it smelled awful, and then having to watch people try to gag down vile concoctions... well, yeah. So, bad for me, good for everybody else!
I think I'm done ranting now. :D
Anna, signing out!
P.S. I actually did spell it right after all! It's on Dictionary.com too. Fun, huh?

We're adding the iambic part on Tuesday (one part at a time man!) I love the drawing by the way. Nice work.
