Elephants and Marshmallows

Elephant Fact # 18: The oldest known elephant was 82 years old. 

         

It’s only two weeks into school and I can feel the heat already. Oh, man.

We all submitted our EE (Extended Essay) and TOK (Theory of Knowledge) essays yesterday, which felt very strange. Letting go of my EE was like—like having an unexpected kid that you really, really hate at first and want to give away for adoption because it does nothing but scream and cry and puke all over your laptop and demand constant attention—and then watching it leave, fully grown and beautiful, for college and thinking, ‘You know, I might have loved this kid after all’.

It’s like that.

On the other hand, I have a lot more time on my hands. Time to really strap on my working boots and get down to the meaty grind of my Chemistry classes—

…or not.

Marshmallows are delicious.

I’ve lately been on this site called Doodle or Die—it’s so fantastically amusing. Basically, someone starts a drawing prompt like perhaps, “A green bunny” and someone else connected to the site draws it. Then someone else writes a description about that person’s drawing without  seeing the original description and the someone else draws that, and so on. It’s like a game of Chinese whispers but 300x the awesomeness.

Here are a few of mine:

Anyway, that’s all I gotta say for today. Catch up some other time!

The Unlucky Elephant


Ohright: Last Friday night I danced with a boy! OMGOMGOMG-- I'm kidding, he's just a friend (weird to even look at it that way, seriously) but I just had a lot of fun, seeing as the school dance and my karaoke plans were cancelled that same day. 


(And yes, it was my embarrassing bootay-shakin'. Goddammit.)
