Snippet

I was looking back over my first journal from my senior year of high school and found an old assignment from English class. We were studying Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales" and had to write up a description of ourselves following certain guidelines. Like, line three had to be "friend of...", line five had to be "who needed...", things like that. I thought it fitting to include it with my post about myself from yesterday, just to see if things have changed from senior year of high school to sophomore year of college...not much difference. :)

Compassionate, painfully sarcastic, imaginative, musical

Friend of Chan and Aus

Lover of one-liners, a happy ending, and an adventure to get there

Who felt that everyone's entitled to their own identity, unbearable annoyance for the willfully-ignorant, and pity for the snobs

Who needed a to-do-list, a quiet thought, and constant music

Who gave joy when there was none, a smile to those who needed it most, and a (very) small token to the world of literature

Who feared the future (sometimes), uncertainty, and the clock

Who would have liked to see my great-grandpa, Philadelphia, and Charles Dickens in their glory days
