Mary Christmas, Harpy New Year

Fri Dec 18, 2009, 7:21 PM










In 12 hours, I will officially be 'kicked' off campus. My dorm is being closed so I get to high-tail it up to my Aunt's for Christmas :lol: Yay for 4-hour drives jammin' to tunes on the radio! (er... read "CDs" there...)

Anyway, my Aunt's net sucks like all get out, so I'll only be on sporadically for the next month-ish.

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year. Don't let your G'ma be run over by sleighs or your tinsel eaten by your kitties.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

On to the features I promised the Barriers Challengers!

Ash's "Impressionist" resulted. Here are a few lines:

"Choke me down
Like the beauty
In fresh picked lilies
Swallow me whole
While my soul lies..."

Ok, not entirely, but if I keep telling myself that, then maybe...?

Anyway, Fall semester's just about done (thank you, God!) and I'm getting ready for my finals & packing up to go to my aunt's. No real internet connection there, so I'll be hit-n-miss from about Dec 19th to Jan 13th.

Not sure how much time I'll have between now & when I can move back into my dorm, so....

Merry Christmas! Happy New Year!

PS. a very big THANK YOU to my mysterious benefactor! It seems someone has gifted me with a 3-month sub! (If you know who, please let me know!)

PSS. I just saw this pic on a former classmate's facebook. With permission... [link] that's her boyfriend. According to her, he took "the pic himself with the timer on his old school digital camera."

Prophecy of the True Horn

Journal Entry: Wed Nov 25, 2009, 8:20 AM


I was recently talking with =WeavingMagic and she happened copy me this poem. I thought I'd share it with you.

The Prophecy of the True Horn

Into darkness will I fade,
Into a night that Man has made,
But through that gloom shall gleam the Sun
When I am lost, and again am won.

Release! Release! I call to thee
In New Lands across the sea;
Let another, on narrow pathways come to me.

Furthest and Highest,
Yet not beyond reach.
Choose thou well a path that will teach
How the Sunken is raised
And Emptiness is filled
And a wandering heart
Can finally be stilled.

Seek the Great Stone! Mark it well, with a sign,
That the one who shall follow
Shall see it is mine,
And, seeing, shall ponder and certainly know
As the Ancients have writ: "As Above, so Below."

And I shall guard the Source of Greatness;
Waiting by a teardrop
From neither joy nor sorrow born,
In silver bound, beneath the ground,
I am the Spiral Horn.

from "De Historia et Veritate Unicornis", translated by Michael Green)
I found the text here: The Prophecy of the True Horn




Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Barriers Challenge still on!

Fri Dec 18, 2009, 7:33 PM








I've noticed that most of the communities on dA like to keep to themselves. Why don't we do a little bit the rest of this month & try and break that down just a little bit?

Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to choose a word from the list below & pick your favourite number (or two numbers). Then, using dA's search, find all the images that come up for that word. If you picked 2 numbers, your first number will be the page you will go to (if there are multiple pages), your second number will be the number deviation you will create a piece of work around.

For example:
Word: "Magnate"
Number: 1
Image:

Next, I would write a story or poem based on the image or how I feel and/or interact with it.










Reward: I'll feature all participants who accept this challenge.

Important stuff:
:bulletblue:Please give me permission to do so in your deviation
:bulletblue:Don't forget to link & give credit to the image & deviant your piece is based on
:bulletblue:Let the deviant know what you've done!
:bulletblue:Please note me with a link to your deviation so I can add it to the features

Sound easy enough? Great! Here's your word list (if you have a word you like better, by all means, use it!):
Light
Arrow
Love
Smith
treasure
trump
sheik
halo
horns
favourite
camera
happy
nero
mandate
harmony
fellow
friend
shiver
political
harsh

I've published a news story about this challenge here: [link]
Please tell your friends! Let's try to get all the communities involved with this if we can.

~*~Update~*~
Features for the first 2 participants can be views here.

As a side note, the wonderful *Valedhelven has made me this neat little stamp: [link]
