Mini-Saga

I have an assignment from my creative arts class to write a story that's exactly fifty words--no more, no less. This is what I came up with.  ^___^

He dreams of a golden fire in the hearth, and wild golden hair, her pure-white smile, her hand in his, reading a book together, lost in a faerie realm, imaginations in harmony...

Raindrops on his skin bring the road back into focus, and he spurs his horse onward, homebound.

Perfection?

Does perfection mean that there are no flaws?

Or that there is nothing that can be done to make it better; that it's hit its upper limit of quality and cannot go further?

Would it be possible for something to be flawless, but still have room for improvement?  Could such a thing be called perfect?  If so, then what lies beyond perfection?

Spring Semester 2013

Wow, I'm writing a blog post.  It's been forever.

I'm taking some interesting classes this semester.  (Except for Calc II.  As good as I am at math, I'm feeling ready to be done with math classes.  Forever.  :P)  I have three honors classes:

• "Adventures in Mathematics".  Easy A and I get physical science credit (because I'm one science credit short!).  This is kind of a broad overview of the history and application of a bunch of different areas of math.  It's just high-school level math here.  *yawn*
• "Why Creativity Matters".  I guess the purpose of this class is to study and develop creativity?  and learn how to draw?  I enjoy it.  
• "Great Ideas of the West in the Classical and Medieval Eras: The Meanings of Life".  That's a mouthful.  We're reading and discussing literature all the way from Mesopotamia (earliest history) to the 1500s, focusing on what people thought the meaning of life was-- which is an absurdly ambiguous pursuit.  I love this class, though.  We get into deep philosophical discussion like what we had in my Socratic Seminar class at Maeser Preparatory Academy.  I missed that class so much.  ^^

And then I'm also taking Intro to Short Fiction.  I'm enjoying that class too.  ^^

Goodness, I have big ambitions.  I want to be producing content relatively frequently in several different places (here, deviantART, Facebook, Cloud in a Bubble, Heavens' Crossroads, Google+...) while working on other stories that might be publishable (like, as in physical novels, with paper  o__0) and making cosplays and going to college and creating video games.  Is this possible?  o.0  I'm going to find out.

well, that's all for now.  Good night, sleep tight, and don't get eaten by flying spaghetti monsters!
