I have no idea why I put "stream of consciousness" as my title. It just sounded cool... plus we're learning about it in English. I have to write a stream-of-consciousness piece about a homeless man. Um... okaaay. I guess I can do that. (Well, I have to. Stupid homework.) It's better than the usual writing assignment, though, because this one is creative writing. Usually it's just essays comparing the ideas of Rousseau and the Enlightenment and the Romantic Era and blahblahblah... (I really have no idea what I learned during that unit.)
I just wish we'd read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland- the original version. It's SO legit. We read a couple chapters of it (and a few of Through the Looking-Glass), but not all of it. So, next on my reading list: Alice in Wonderland. Yeeaaahhhh. :D
And another reminder to vote on the poll. It's right there under the little animated fox! Vote vote vote!
A last random thought to wrap up this pointless post: When rabbits are being attacked and dying, they make this noise that sounds like a woman screaming. At least, that's what my friend says. Apparently, his rabbit was attacked by some sort of animal and it was screaming... which was really freaky (and a quite morbid topic for the middle of trig).
I loved the original Alice in Wonderland!
ReplyDeleteI have to do some stream of consciousness thing too. About myself, for some reason. Somehow, it's a lot harder to think about something when you know you have to write it down.
Ooh, I was thinking the same thing! And I can't write what I actually think, because it would probably look something like this:
ReplyDelete"LOL SO FUNNY THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID AHAHA OOOH SHINY OH LOOK PRETTY CLOUD MY DOGGY IS SO CUTE OMG NO I DON'T WANT TO DO HOMEWORK WHAT INCEST WHAT I'M THIRSTY NOW I HAVE TO PEE OMG NEW AVATAR TRAILER IT'S SO COOL NOW I WANT GUM OH OH OH I ALMOST FORGOT I HAVE TO CALL PAIGE AND OMG I HAVE A BOX OF MINTS AND--"
...yeah. I can't really turn that in to my English teacher.
Yeah, exactly! I mean, I just went from writing about Israel to Chinese art and twizzlers. So not logical.
ReplyDeleteI think I'd scare Freud.
Niiiice. :D
ReplyDeleteMy prompt told me to imagine that I was sitting somewhere comfortable and that a homeless guy was sitting outside and I could see him through the window. Um... I think I ended up saying something about how I'd rather not be homeless?
I just know that I made it all windy and rainy and kind of depressing. It's probably horrific, but that's okay.
