This Day.

Mentally exhausted after sitting through a fairly uncomfortable but generally alright National Honors Society induction ceremony.

Also mentally exhausted from studying for a giant PreCalc test that I'm extreeeeemely worried about.

Also fangirling really hard because Kait Rokowski told me that I am one million shades of adorable. She's my favorite slam poet and I've gotten to see her perform multiple times and she recently took third place at the Women of the World Poetry Slam in Denver. Besides her poetic prowess, she's a super great human. AND SHE THINKS OF ME AS AN ACCEPTABLE HUMAN BEING. Will wonders never cease?

"Kait Rokowski is the kind of writer I completely trust, rooted in the kind of muddy honesty that makes her readers/listeners want to become better humans. Her poems are sly and full of blood, she is going to dismantle everything wrong with poetry. She is one of the women who will save the poetry slam scene from itself."

It's the truth, y'all. Here's to PreCalc and Poetry.

  1. You are a more than acceptable human being!

    And yes, here is to Poetry but I won't raise a glass to PreCalc. Nope, I will not. It has no love in it.
