So, you all remember my poem, Eggshells, that I posted up here? Well, awhile ago, I submitted it to the International World Poetry Movement Contest. And guess what?
THE JUDGES LIKED IT. My poem is a semi-finalist, and now it's headed to the finals.
I repeat, OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD.
My best friend would not shut up about it, and it kinda bothered me because I still have my low self esteem issues, so I'm like "huh, maybe I am good at this whole 'writing' thing" and he's like "...I'm gonna punch you in the face. -_- " I love him. <3
Also, my poem will be published in the book Stars In Our Hearts along with other poem entries, so it will forever be known that I am a good writer. And the day that I got the news about my poem was the same day that my first newspaper article was published in The Mash, so you know what? I'm having a pretty good week, despite the fact that I was sick at home for two days.
I love writing. <3<3<3

I'm with stupid
My mom and I fought again and she called me stupid, so after trying to argue with her and failing, I with with a mostly silent treatment, only answering direct questions. She had gone into my grandparents house to pick up Julian cause we had been there earlier but he fell asleep so we went shopping without him, but yeah she went back to pick him up, then on the way home she apologized for calling me stupid. I was so confused, but I didn't look up from my book - I just said okay.
I can only assume that she talked about our fight with my grandma and she told her to behave or something, because my uncle and I fought like a week ago and he hasn't apologized so I know he wasn't helpful.
I've also learned that my mother hates sarcasm.
She's called me stupid before, and this time, while I was giving her the silent treatment I had to scream obscenities inside my head as if I had Tourettes - obscenities that I don't even use. I guess what I'm trying to say is that she irritates me, but this situation was resolved a lot easier than usual, so I'm good.
