Poetry is a way…

Poetry is a way…
By: Joshua Altemoos

Poetry is a way to express
Poetry is a way to let go
Poetry is a way to repress
Poetry is a way to show

Poetry can let the past be read
Poetry can let emotions last
Poetry can let people find their creed
Poetry can let life be recast

Poetry shows an another life
Poetry shows an another side
Poetry shows sometimes strife
Poetry shows what I have confided

Poetry helps with so many ways and does so many things
Poetry shows that there are things with meanings

Today is a good day!

Howdy Howdy!!

Today is a good day!! Or it is depending how you look at it! I have my first exam today, it is in my English Lit Class (EN-111) and it is on poetry. Why is this good you ask? Because, it marks the end of that class for the semester!! Sweet eh? I have to go in on Friday for this class to pick up my exam and get my final grade, but that is not bad. Also, today I hand in my last Myth Paper; it is “Analysis of Cupid and Psyche and The Disobedience of the Daughter of the SunCupid and Psyche being a Roman myth, and The Disobedience of the Daughter of the Sun being Mayan. I better get an A, THANKS KIMI FOR PROOFREADING IT!!!

Soo what is up with the rest of the week…? I have THREE exams on Wednesday, first Economics (EC-100), then Myth (EN-294), then Western Civ. (HI-100). I have to come in Friday for Economics as well, Myth not so much she does not give the final back and she doubts she will have the paper graded by that day. Then from there after it is the waiting game for my grades :(

I am very excited about this weekend. Why?? Chris, my boyfriend, soul mate, my better half is visiting Buffalo!!! This means he gets to meet my friends!!! Chris, Kimi, Nolan and I are going out to eat on Saturday and on Sunday Chris and I are going to see a drag show! Also there is no school at this point!!!

2 Months, 28 Days till I am with my love forever!!!

Peace

Life goes on…

Hey,

As my attempt to blog more often, I may just blog random shit, I am sorry!

Today is not random shit!! yay!

School ends next week Saturday, I have my exams as I listed before, what fun… Plus a paper that I am suppose to be writing right now, but I am writing on my blog. Work is going alrite, I am getting ready for the long-haul of summer, trying to save money up for my move. A old co-worker is coming back for the summer, I am surprised that they allowed him but he is. Someone close to me was fired because someone that does not even have anything to do with our department snitched, and lied. Politics…

I am so excited, I moved in three months and I have gotten my tickets already!!

I am updating my blog layout, slowly but surly. You may have noticed I spread out my sidebar content and added a contact bar on the right, have fun!! I plan to convert to k2 check out my Test Blog if you want to see how it will look. Tell me what you think!!! email: joshua@wolfnix.net.

DreamHost is changing me over to a new box, because my access and response time on my blog and other web based pages have been very slow, and I have gotten Connection Time Out messages alot! Very annoying! Hopefully this will fix any issues that I have had!!!

Well off to do homework I was suppose to do before, talk to me!! You have my addresses now you can stalk me *shiftyhides*

Peace

Hate Crime Law Passed The House

I talked about The law that was presented in front of the US House of Reps on May 3rd 2007. It was passed 237 to 180, to see who voted view the Final Roll Call. This is a historic vote that will protect the GLBT community from the oppression of the Majority against the Minority. This law protects a lot more then just the GLBT community it also protects Women and Disabled Americans, whom under the previous laws would not of been covered. To see more information check out the HRC’s website reguarding this historic vote, or view the bill (HR 1592) as passed by the house, yourself!

Just the Senate now, then to the President (he said he will veto it… lets not go there).

As a side note, I was happy to find that my repdid co sponser this bill, and she voted for it! She is Louise McIntosh Slaughter. To find if your rep co-sponsored it you can go to the HRC’s Website for a listing. To see if they voted for or against visit the Final Roll Call.

Peace!!

The Means are Final

Hey!!

As ya’ll already know, I am moving to NH to live with my boyfriend Chris. The means for getting there arrived yesterday. I have my Amtrak tickets (See Them Here). I leave the morning of August 11th 2007. I leave from Depew at 10:100, then arrive in Albany in 3:40 and then my half of the train goes to Worchester (Then to Boston) at 4:10 and get into the city at 8:16. This is all if it is not late, but it is a guaranteed connection meaning I will get there!!

My Website is Green!!!

Hey!! I'm GREEN!!! My website is hosted with Dreamhost and they have estimated in their daily output in the line of duty (papers, servers, etc…) that they output about the amount of carbon dioxide as 545 average-size homes. So they realized they had to do something!! Since they can not use the wind or solar power, they purchase Renewable Energy Credits and Carbon Credits, these credits help verify they are energy efficient and Carbon Neutral, plus that they cut there carbon output and help the money helps pay for funding further emission reduction and renewable energy projects. to find more information about it click I'm GREEN!!!! Or go to Dreamhost’s Site on being green!
