I've known I wanted to be a writer since I was in second grade. I wrote a story about a Christmas tree. It was cliche (from what I recall), the tree was with a lot of other trees, (in an Xmas tree lot) but was getting passed over. It wanted to get chosen, as all the other trees did. (Perhaps a little existential for a second grader, but I'm writing what I remember it was about.) In the end, the tree was chosen and everyone lived happily ever after. The end.
Speaking of Existentialism: (Pic: Top: Kierkegaard and Dostoyevsky. Bottom:
Nietzsche and Satre). In order.
Someone I knew through middle school and high school died recently. I think he was murdered, drug related, from what I hear. Some people are saying they are surprised this happened. From what I remember of this kid from school, before he was expelled, he was pretty into drugs. I always stick to the green. I might experiment with other things, but it's only for the experience.
The one clear memory I have of this guy who died is from middle school. We were in the same English or Reading class, something like that. I had raised my hand, and he had apparently looked down my shirt because he made fun of me having a mole in my armpit. A silly memory, but it's what I got. (Pic of him I found on Facebook. RIP H.M,)
A friend of mine said: "Life's too short you guys. Live it happy. Live it with the ones that love you. That's all that matters anyways." She did say this after the person I mentioned above was murdered. I agree with her though, wholeheartedly. I've had a lot of bad things happen to me in my life, and I've always had this kind of mindset, although I've been too reserved as of late. I think I'm getting too old to be reckless.
I know this blog has not been all about television, but sometimes the things that life brings you can be crazier than television. Also, I've been thinking about my life as a whole. I haven't been writing or reading, which is what makes me the happiest, but I don't have any time to do those things. I've been reading the same book since Sept. I can usually finish a book in less than a week. Thus proving that I work too much to enjoy myself.

COVEN: I have a new theory on who the new supreme will be: Queenie. It would be perhaps the most unexpected. But others might say it sounds too cliche. Everything is cliche these days, no matter what it is.
As for those other two shows, I can't really say what will happen. Marvel always surprises.
The people who are writing this version of the Dracula story have turned Dracula into Nikola Tesla a little bit. He plays an American entrepreneur in the electricity race, but Dracula (aka Alexander Grayson) seems to be a step ahead of the game. Another cliche, but probably true (for Tesla), secret societies began boycotts against Tesla's work.
I mean, who wouldn't want free energy with no radiation to worry about? Geo-magnetic energy has no harmful properties, but people put down Tesla back in the day because they were too afraid. (I'm talking about the real Tesla now, by the way). He found a way to create free, never-ending energy that was not harmful to people, but he got shut down. He was said to have wanted to use the Geo-magnetic force fields as weapons. So Tesla was shut down. But, if we could access that kind of power, we wouldn't have to use oil anymore.
Perhaps I'm just getting ahead of myself. I'm wishing that things had gone differently in our past. I wish people hadn't treated Tesla like a crazy person. He had some good ideas. If they had taken his ideas seriously, what would our lives be like now? The idea of that could be crazier than the idea of space travel. Or would it have helped increase the possibility for further space travel? I have no idea about that stuff. I have a degree in English. I only ask questions like "What if?"
peace and love,
Rachel
