Punch the key's damn it!

so I was going to post my page about rules for my philosophy class that I just typed up like Emily did, and I assume Cami will be doing. Only then I was like: "Other than my teacher, who cares?" I don't even care that much! So I have decided not to post it. I will put a link (if I can figure out how to) so if you really do care about my page and half rant about what rules are, why they exist, exceptions to the rules etc. then you can read it. . . . here we go! pretending I know how to use blogger!

yeah I can't figure it out. Again I don't care enough to keep trying. You know me if you're reading this (if you don't you're probably a creeper. why are you reading the random rantings of a 17 year old girl? I'm not Allie Brosh! Go away!) so if you really care, e-mail me. I'll share it with you.

SO! its Sunday. Sunday's are my days of reflection and contemplation. Maybe I'll blog every Sunday so you guys can see what I think about, its different each week. I won't promise though, because odds are that I will forget. So! Today I've thought a lot about Invictus. I even started memorizing it.

Out of the night that covers me

Black is the Pit from pole to pole

I thank whatever Gods may be

For my unconquerable soul.

in the fell clutch of circumstance

I have not whimpered nor cried aloud

under the bludgeoning of chance

My head is bloody but unbowed. (this is all I know on my own.)

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

I love this. I think it's important to have an unconquerable soul. today I learned I'm stronger than I thought. If you want to know ask me in person. I'll tell you a little story.

Another thing I've thought about is the movie Finding Forester (which is the source of today's title). first off, Sean Connery rocks and if any of you know where I can get Robin and Marian with him and Audrey Hepburn, I will sell my soul to you, if Angela will give it back to me.

Second off, I enjoy having his voice in my head reminding me how to write. The first draft you write with your heart. The second with your head. This is my goal for the rest of my book. No more going back and re-writing, editing, anything. I'm just going to keep going. Put all my heart in it and worry about the sensibilities of if when I'm finished.

This I will promise you, when that first draft is finished I will put a link up here for the few of you who follow me. You may read it, critique it, or just say "hey look what Kate did that's cool. I'm gonna go get a smoothie now." I don't care. Do what you want, but it will be here for you. If you are offended by violence and a little swearing then don't read it. Because that's how my mind works and I think how best to express things sometimes. I won't apologize for it.

Last point of the day. Things are always more frightening in the dark than in the light.

Even if what you fear in the dark is true, it can't be more horrifying in the light than in your head.

You are the master of your fate, the captain of your soul.

-Kate.

p.s. I love my mother. We don't always get along, sometimes we fight (you'd never guess right?!), but in the end she always knows what to say to make me feel better again, and remind me what is good in the world and that I'm loved. I love you Moddy. Thanks.

p.p.s. I almost forgot a picture! I hate a post without a picture, it makes it look more daunting! don't worry I'm getting one! There it is! yay Sean Connery and all your Scottish glory!
