thewingedwordSchool has officially begun driving me crazy. Literally, quite insane. There are some bright spots; I got a 92 on the Neil Gaiman research paper. The teacher's main problem was that I set out to prove my thesis all on my lonesome and didn't bring in quotes from experts who agreed with me, although I did use quoted data to back up my conclusions. I can understand that, because I did. In my defense, it's hard to find experts who agree that Neil Gaiman's writing showcases the strange conflict between ancient gods and the modern deities of a developing technological religion. I do my best.
I'm still \o/ over my ACT score. For all y'all who aren't from the Midwest, the ACT is basically our version of the SAT, only it's scored out of 36. A score above a thirty gives you a good shot at a great college, so I'm very excited. Granted, most colleges outside the Midwest also like an SAT score, but if I can do this well on that I've nothing to fear.
Why I love Red.
Me (after watching the video for All American Reject's "Time Stands Still"): I have seen proof of God's love for mankind in that he saw fit to give Nick Wheeler an acoustic guitar. And also two Gibson Firebirds, one in the tobacco sunburst and another off-cream-ish one. And also Tyson Ritter, like a kind of bitchy cherry to top it all off.
Red: Although I have my doubts about God's involvement in guitars and gay subtext, if they are indeed His works, that is a religion I can get on board with.
And then we rambled on a bit about whether this religion would go door-to-door with pamphlets, and if so would they be the kind of pamphlets you'd have to hide under your bed like a teenage guy with Playboy. It makes me happy.
Randomly, Our Lady of Sorrows is definitely a Gerard Way Saves Lives song. "Stand up fucking tall/ Don't let them see your back/ Take my fucking hand/ and never be afraid again." Very much that sort of lyric. It's also a lovely song, although Honey has more foreshadowing of his developing vocal talents.
