Remnants 16 - A character

I haven't made a huge number of characters, and a couple the ones I have made are all kind of a joke. For this likable unlikeable character contest, I'll try my best to create an unlikeable character that ends up liked. And yes, restating the prompt will totally help.

Remnants 15 - Hiatus

Sorry I forgot to put some kind of greeting in that last post. I had one in Remnants 13, but as you may have read, that went offline recently after it went online. Anyway, I'm back after a random break from writing I decided to take after wracking my brains trying to come up with a decent ingredients post for my short story. Maybe that break helped me with totally ruining my Stanford application, but whatever - I liked it, so if they don't then I still have no regrets in writing it. Today, I feel like writing one of those generic shorts I pretend to hate so much. Thus I present to you "Hiatus".

Remnants 14 - A wise man named Peter

A wise man named Peter once came and said to me something about how posting my Stanford responses on the Internet was probably a bad idea, but Remnants 13 - A new year, a new wtfdidijustwrite will still remain available, as it is still sitting as an unsaved pile of words and HTML in notepad.exe. Email me if you want a couple of fresh, unique responses to some otherwise generic questions from one of the most highly selective schools in the nation.

Remnants 9 - I have issues

So a couple minutes ago I read this post on Wesley's blog and it made me reflect a little on something I've reflected on increasingly in recent times.

That aforementioned something is my ability to set my priorities straight, or lack thereof. Or maybe it's my general laziness. Or my selective dedication/determination/willingness to exert myself. Or m...

Whatever that something is, I'll be describing it in this post, so allow me to introduce you to one of its little quirks that I think really helps define it.

Assigned Blog Post 06 - YOU SO CRAZY!!!

(yes, caps and multiple exclamation points were necessary)

So, over the course of this course, I feel like I've gotten to know a lot of my fellow classmates much better, and a lot of that can be attributed to what I read on their blogs. Not only do these blogs give me an opportunity to steal delicious infos about the people with whom I spend about 1/4 of each day, they provide me great pieces of writing to simply enjoy as a normal person, someone who lives life and goes through all of its joys and pains and whatever else gets thrown in the mix.

Introduction & Mix 1 - 4635 [rove the fires u fix]

So I'm not totally sure how this blog is going to turn out, since 1) I've never kept a blog before, 2) I hardly ever read blogs because I absolutely HATE reading stuff from those people who try to have perfect spelling and grammar, then end up with ONE little mistake that completely ruins it (ask people who know me, they know), and 3) I generally don't write much, especially fiction. Hopefully the things that end up on this blog are worth reading. And with that, a little explanation of what will end up on this blog.

• MIX - Basically if I find something interesting about life, I'll make a statement about it, and then scramble the letters into a different statement upon which I write a story. As you'll see later in this post, these are almost certain to end up really weird, but that's okay (probably).
• REMNANTS - These posts will contain reflections and revelations about my writing and my life. They'll probably hold a little more meaning and relevance than the Mixes.

I look forward to mixing up life in the blender, and hopefully you'll stick around to pick up the remnants. And now for the first Mix - 4635 [rove the fires you fix] . . .
