~ Edit: (8/31/03) I’m not dead, just cleaning up some coding on my site and being lazy this weekend

Aww, my total comments have dropped dramatically
I guess the only reason many people were commenting was because of Provance… oh well, I will survive. I still have my beloved faithful commenters: anjana, Angelique, Karrie, Peter, Jenny, and Kristen.
Well, my bad habit of procrastination has already started again. I have so much homework that is due today, which I have yet to complete! I did finish one thing, however. For Creative Writing, I was supposed to write a poem that included a list of some sort. Now, I love to write, but I enjoy writing fiction/non-fiction. To be honest, I never liked poetry until recently. The reason I like it now is because I have studied it more in depth and I have come to respect some of it (I still think a lot of it is pointless and stupid :P) Anyways, I just finished writing my poem. It is so stupid and terrible that I decided to post it so that everyone can make fun of it hehe. I know that poetry doesn’t necessarily have to rhyme, but I wanted to give it a shot.
By Bubs
I tell myself I will work on something early,
And I try to make that true.
Then why am I awake writing this poem
On the day that it is due?
(Not only a poem do I have to write,
But Spanish and English reading that I should have done last night.)
I shake my head, but it is clear –
Procrastination is a weakness, a troubled future do I fear!
I’m really a good student.
I feel I’ve a valid excuse.
Distractions, distractions, distractions…
To avoid them, there is no use.
Wednesday is my busiest day,
But Tuesdays are not that bad.
Then, you ask, why not Tuesday?
Well, a date with sleeping is what I had.
Let me not forget the distraction
That led me to the place;
The place where I played Xbox
To continue my procrastination pace.
The craving was unbearable
& doughnuts hit the spot.
However I was a bit disappointed
When the doughnuts weren’t fresh and hot.
Before my trek to the Krispy Kreme
(Which was later in the night),
I just had to have a manicure/pedicure –
To finish my work first didn’t seem right.
I finally sit down to write this poem.
But first, a topic I must decide.
Then I look over to my aquarium and realize
My beloved Dalmatian fish has died!
This poem is long and boring,
So I think it’s time to conclude.
Just wanted to tell of all the distractions,
And the homework they helped to elude.
Hey, I gave it a shot! hehe
Anyways, I have terrible news! My dalmatian-spotted fish died this morning
I don’t know why! I have an automatic feeder, but I’m wondering if it is working properly. Well, all my other fish seem pretty active and happy… maybe I just got an unhealthy fish? I hope that is the case because I don’t want any of the others to die so soon. In other, better news, I may be getting a new puppy! It’s a little Yorkie named Precious
I will tell the story behind that the next time I post, but right now I really need to finish my homework.
Not too much going on with my site. I have been brainstorming a new skin and a new layout of Oh My Cuteness. Also, I will be starting a new contest very soon… this next one will be a lot of fun
Before you go, please vote for me at Sugary-Sweet’s Top 50 Pixel Sites. Hope everyone has a good day… it’s almost Friday, thank goodness!!

Poetry is so my thing! in fact, I might go to graduate school for creative writing and focus on poetry. i’m a poetry editor at wordriot.org too! but i know what you mean about poetry seeming sort of pointless. i’m the opposite from you. i wish i could write fiction. i have no structure though.
i’m sorry your fishy died. awwww and it was the dalmation one. i used ot have a nice fish tank and sometimes they would just randomly die. i guess that’s just fish. oh. and sometimes they’d eat each other…i think thats worse. ha haha.
i’ll comment more from now on. i always felt kinda silly commenting hence the fact that i dont know you…well, except for your site….i know your blog so maybe that counts as knowing you. (:
this is a very long comment:confused: ….i’ll go now. bye!

Your poem is really good :). Your poor fish :(. I guess a puppy might make you feel better about it dying though. I know what you mean about leaving homework until the last minute (i am leaving my algebra h/w to the last minute right now
)
