Yawn; a post about nothing

Hello Everyone! I am so thankful for labor day’s three day weekend!

School has been exhausting, so I wish I could get more sleep. But my cat has kind of stolen my pillow…

She doesn’t seem to realize that that’s where my head is supposed to go.

It’s raining today, and it’s a perfect lazy day, as my family calls it. Considering the circumstances, I don’t really have much planned for today. I guess a post about nothing is perfect for a day like this!

Remember my tiny polyphemus caterpillars?  well they grew up… and died. I have two left now, which is really disapointing. I wanted to be able to raise atleast 5. Plus, if they die that easily, than it’s going to be tough to keep them alive until they’re moths. After all, they are still tiny, they’re at most 10 millimeters. I’ll keep you posted on how they do.

The jellyfish above is one of my favorite paintings, for two reasons: one is that it took me about 8 minutes to make. The second reason, is that the picture I painted it based on is not something I took (obviously), or something I looked for. It was the desktop background our old computer (just a neat story I like to share).

OK, if you understand me, you know I’m overly ambisious.

What you see above is a greenhouse I intend to build… unrealistic – YES!! VERY!!! I’m overly ambisious, but I do have the ability to build things… I’ll keep you posted on the project. Just so you know, I am aware that it will never work out the way I planned it above.

Candles

OK… sorry I made you guys wait. Ich would first like to comment on the new bild under miene award list. I have to thank http://poemotherapishoppe.com/ for that. I havent officially made the post for it, for three reasons. One, is that I need to award blogs with under 200 followers, which ist sehr complicated. Another is that… IT WAS MY FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL TODAY. Ich bin, naturally, sehr tired und faul (lazy). The third, is that I just came back from the bathroom, und Ich found das miene katze, in her subtile ways, was telling me that I have five minutes left with the computer (and incidentally the chair).

I guess I should get to it then…

OK. I’m beginning to get a migrane, and my time with this chair strikes three minutes. so I’ll wrap it up by explaining quickly. The picture below is a collection of pictures I took of a sculpture. I call it candles, because most of it is wax and wicks (and the candles really do work) with the occasional fork or broken DVD-triangles. I made it a while ago, but some of the pieces didn’t look as interesting, and some were a bit too prochairous. So, naturally, my cat was compelled to break it. I fixed it up yesterday, and now I can share it with you guys:

In the Blog world

Now that Ich bin in diese blog world, I’m finally able to share my work with people that aren’t immediate family. For instance, I was re-blogged by Hastywords at http://hastywords.wordpress.com/ I’ve gotten about 128 views so far, and 3 followers! Faster than I expected. That reminds me that I wanted to say that my parents are fine with me being followed, or liked, or re-blogged as long as I am fine with it, which I am =). I would like to thank everyone that has been to my blog, or given me a warm welcome. It is an amazing community, the blogging world. My friend (who would wish to remain anonymous) had told me a while back about what it is like to have a blog, and since then I’ve been pestering my parents for one. We always said I’d get one in the summer, aber at the very end of the year I’d say “Wait, wasn’t I supposed to get a blog this year?” and then, I wait. I don’t want to seem ungrateful for my parents, though. Both of them are very creative and theatrical and enjoy meine work a lot. I really gain a lot from them. I’d also like to give credit to my cat (who politely asked if I could with-hold her name) since she will get a lot of posts dedicated to her, and it seems only fair.

Miene Katze

Ich bin glad das Ich habe this opportunity. Maybe it will help me achieve my unrealistic, far fetched, yet slightly possible dream of becoming an astronaut. Not a goal to shoot for, maybe, something I shouldn’t hope for, definitely not! There’s endless potential in dreams. OK, that has to be the title of my next poem, or painting, or something.
