Because I am a High School Student and I am vain.
Like all high schoolers wanting to go to college, I too am partaking in that which eats at brain cells, that which noms at sleep, that which is AP English. Of course, other classes also induce brain loss equivalent to that of a zombie attack. These also bear the name "AP," but those classes do not result in the hilarity, or sheer genius of the writing that AP English causes.
So, back to the reason for this blog. As I said I am extremely vain. But not in the way of looks or anything so superficial as that, no. I am gifted instead with the Teacher's Favorite Syndrome. This causes me to receive decently high grades on papers that I worked on for about a third of the time as my fellow classmates. Often times, I post these papers on Facebook for last minute cyber-peer-editing.
Facebook has decided to change its format. Again. I plan on writing a strongly-worded letter to Mark Zuckerberg on this matter. However, in the meantime, I have created this blog just to ensure that my writings will be easily accessible to all who wish to read my Opinions, Essays, and Thoughts without having to learn the new Facebook format to find my glowing causeries and sigh, "If only I could write as well as she."
I will post my essays and opinion editorials on here for all who care to view, as they are due or as I choose to post them, it doesn't really matter. All that matters is that you read them, enjoy them, critique them.
As an added bonus, I will post videos if I figure out how. My AP English class has an emphasis on film and therefore has more than just stuffy old writings, but also documentaries, like on Teenagers, that I will post on here if I become technologically savvy enough to do so.
I sincerely hope the AP season will be good to all who read this, as do I. Writings from AP will remain here as a reminder of how much we've grown as writers and as... well no just writers.
If you'd like to post your own writings up here for me, or others, to edit feel free to do so. No one will judge. Unless you want them to judge. I know I have no problem in judging. I might judge you.
Of course, if you know me, please excuse my extremely self-centered introduction. You know I am not usually this prone to self-praise and self-reverence. Just writing as myself becomes insanely boring, I need to break the "relentless cage of routine and rote" (Sylvia Plath).
