Hmm...
Went for a French study class today. It was pouring down, absolutely miserable weather, and I'd been in too much of a rush to get breakfast, and when I finally got to school at nine no-one was there. So I went over to the Holiday Programme, in case someone was there who couldtell me where to go- I was actually thinking of Meg. However Debbie turned out to be there instead, along with Jaime and Rachel Hunter- no, not the one who married Rod Stewart, the other one. Anyway, Debbie laughed at me (I must actually have been a pretty comic sight, wrapped up in three layers and a beanie under my hoodie) and told me study classes didn't start till ten.
HEADDESK.
Anyway, I stuck around with the Holiday kids for a while, helped them decorate kite and then watched Debbie play a very energetic game of Simon Says with them, which was, you know, hilarious, as Debbie is like an Energiser battery- she just keeps going, and going, and... ;) Anyway, she's the only one who could possibly keep up with twelve kids aged between eight and 12...
And then I went to French and mucked around in town, and then came home. But on the way I realised that I need writing practice for two things: French and poetry/creative. I need to do it daily, really, and sinceI'm a total feedback whore I lose all those damn stupid pieces of paper I keep writing on, and I would like to keep them somewhere accessible other than a PC (because I'm moving, mostly)... So, would it annoy you all if I chucked a poem a day up here? Or some other piece of creative writing? (I'm hoping it will expand into actual stories, too.) Or, alternatively, should I get a creative journal- this would actually serve two purposes, because I could stuff all my stupid icons and things up there-? And if I did, what shoudl I call it?
le_camion_rouge is cool. Or, mm, carnet_feuilles_rouges, except I don't think that says what I want it to say (which is red notebook pages. The pages are red, not the notebook. The words are all there...) Or I could just go feuilles_rouges, which means red leaves. (It's a pun, too. Red leaves, as in autumn, and read leaves, as in pages. Hee.) Although, you know, journal titles in French are so pretentious... :D And you know I've already got one.
So, opinions requested. :D

Are you going to write poetry in French? Because that would a)be cool and b)allow you to practice both French and creative writing at once. :D

I'm not sure. I was thinking about one a while ago. But second-language poetry is maybe not a good idea. ;) Hm. I will think about it. Maybe I'll use phrases? Like Michelle. ;)
