School Concert

You can’t see me, but you can definitely hear me :P Song is ‘Good Riddance – Greenday’

Disability. Oh, and purple smoke.

So much of living with a disability, or rather, having a child with one, is assuring them that their life won’t be somehow ‘worse’ than normal. Yes. I use that word. So many people seem to want to avoid saying the N word. Nah, it’s the R word we’re avoiding, or the V word, if [...]

PCness in the extreme

I wonder… If I started doing this would my English teacher take it well, or find it annoying? (Like everyone else) Via Ciaran

Drums and Stickers

This Thursday, the school is having a concert, starring all the students of the school who do music. Yours truly is playing drums for them. For the first part, which is a melody of songs on recorder, I’m playing an African Drum, and for two GreenDay (probably not my choice of song, but whatever) songs: [...]

Blogging – the appeal

I love literature. I love words. I love crafting words into sentences, I love creating segments of my thoughts. It is definitely a craft, just like woodwork in school or whatever. You have to be able to form these on paper/screen. I mean, it’s no good being very poetic and great with words if you [...]

The Little Things

OK, some would say that if I do one more happiness post, ‘happiness’ would join the ranks of things I talk about too much. It’d be among the greats – pancakes, iPhones, drums and suchlike. However, I think this is really important, so I’ll run the risk afterwards. Plus, being known for ‘pancakes’ is one [...]
