Kate's Blog

Haikus

Sometimes I write haikus. Here a few recent ones.

Loneliness creeps in.
I seek a cure for this ache,
as it bites and tears.

Cluttered spaces and
dusty corners witness my
struggles to begin.

I fear the noise and
the light, yet I cling to my
merciless shadows.

I can’t ask for keys,
since I am my own keeper,
yet doors are hidden.

Guilt and shame have ruled
irreverent of my need
to repair myself.

Efforts mean little
when accompanied by greed.
Change eludes me still.

Accio, Boyfriend Mine

My boyfriend was gone all summer and towards the end, I got frustrated and found a productive way of channeling it (miraculously). I figured out that it worked really well to switch the lyrics of Hank's Harry Potter song and make it about my summer. So here it is. (also, camera cord is missing, so videos are pending)

I’m gettin’ kinda tired of this
long time promised reunited bliss

you’ve got my entire mind under your spell
don’t you know that I’ve really missed
that special way we always kiss… Continue

Kate's Cooking Challenge

For a long time, I've needed to learn to cook, and I need an interesting way of doing that cuz otherwise I just stick to things like bagels and oatmeal.

I am hear to tell you that is not a healthy way to live. So for the sake of my own health and decreasing world suck by decreasing my own suck, I am going to attempt cooking. Once a week, I will be attempting a new recipe and video the process and post it for passerbys to criticize (which I'm sure will be happening a lot since I can't even make… Continue

I mainly have stuff I've drawn and photos that I've edited on photoshop on there. Since I don't have a tablet, I can't do any of the digital art I want to, so for now I'm stuck with a pencil and colored pencils.

Well, I kind of blame twilight for it. There is this user on deviantArt that I watch, and one day she made some Nerdfighters fan art, and so I was curious. Then I started watching all of the videos for the very beginning (and I'm still not all the way up to date) and so, that's pretty much how I came to be here.

Hey! Sorry for the long gap; I've been ridiculously busy with tests at school! How are you? Do you only want to learn main courses or would soups and puddings be fine too?

I searched classykate1 on YouTube and nothing came up but I'll look again when you add a video or two and maybe that'll work. :D
