Class assignment: research, analyze, and prepare to present a poem in competition with others, March Madness style.
My English teacher made up a bracket and everything! The winning poem from all her classes (three classes, 32 poems, three kids--one per class--per poem) goes up against the winning poem from the other English 1 Honors teacher's classes.
Step One: Make a logo, mascot, and poster for your poem/poet.
Mine's Alfred Noyes' "The Highwayman," a super-tragic love story that I didn't completely understand at first.
Logo:
Cool, right? Heh, maybe I should be a graphic designer! 
I need to post on here more often...
So... I decided to go out on a limb and use these plastic hair curlers in my hair after I washed it. I've used big hair curlers before, but my hair's not long enough to really curl. Plus I don't like using curling irons... heat-related styling tools and I don't get along. My grandma had some 1" old-fashioned plastic curlers lying around, so she helped me put them in.
I waited about 3 hours for my hair to dry, then took them out.
End result:
I LOVE PLASTIC HAIR CURLERS!! *ahem* Woops, got carried away.
*lightbulb* Wonder what the guys at school will think...
OK... working on a new fanart and inadvertently came up with not just a background/story for Sakara and Azure, but another OC as well.
This one's a guy, currently nameless (note to self: scour baby name website later), and he's the same kind of person as Sakara and Azure (which will make sense once I write their story and put it up on SNH).
While trying to come up with a hair color for him, I was looking through Photoshop's color swatches and seeing what the names of the colors were. Pastel Magenta, Pastel Green Cyan, Pastel Red, Pastel Green... you get the idea... and then I see Pea Green.
When I think of pea green, I usually think of pea soup or barf. Out of curiosity, I selected it and just colored in a little to see what his hair would look like.
Just because it's pea green doesn't mean it's not totally adorable green.
Some people will not agree with the connotation I just gave pea green... but it's a positive one nonetheless!
EDIT: Kinda likin' the name Eli for him... comment and tell me if he looks like an Eli to you... or give suggestions for another name starting with E, because his name starting with E is key to his relation to Sakara and Azure. Well, technically you could give me suggestions for a name for him starting with F... because I think I just thought up a better idea on the spot.
You know what? Tell me if you like Eli, or if you can think of a better name for him starting with either E or F.
Given the lack of liveliness here which is my own fault, I'm going to merge Fanfiction Central with OC Stories Headquarters under a cool new name. (Hopefully it'll be a cool combination of the names of both Worlds, but we'll see what I can come up with.)
For now, the two other posts here will just be transferred to the Headquarters until I come up with a better name.
