Shine Bright Like A Flashcard

I made flashcards for my Intro to Theatre midterm. I started out by making a card for every vocabulary term in each chapter, but then I realized that our teacher had only given us sixty terms to study on the study guide, and I had made a lot of cards that I didn't need. I only got through the first few chapters, though, so it's okay.

Except I ran out of index cards with three terms to go.

I could have cut out 2x4 pieces of paper.

I could have studied the terms on a list instead of cards.

I could have even gone out to buy more index cards.

But no.

I chose to color over some of the flashcards I didn't need with a black Sharpie. And then I wrote the new terms on top of them with glittery gel pens.

Isn't that creative? I thought so. But between this and the blackout poetry I did a few weeks ago, my black Sharpie hates me.

And I had tons of time to waste coloring index cards black! It's not like this midterm is tomorrow or anything!

Oh, wait.

Ash Wednesday

LEEEEEEENT.

IT'S HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERE.

I gave up Netflix and Solitaire for Lent.

Walking home from the Ash Wednesday service where the pastor put ashes on my forehead, I got a little sad about not being able to watch my superhero cartoons.

I don't know how many times I almost opened up a game of Solitatire tonight.

It's gonna be a long Lent.

Kicking off this melancholy season with a midterm. Hooray. Why can't I give up midterms for Lent?

Notebook Doodles

Just a couple o' fun doodles from my Shakespeare notebook to prove I'm still alive.

Brownie points to whoever recognizes the play.

I've got a couple of blog post drafts going, but can't seem to get around to finishing them.

Midterms, y'all.

And papers.
