Ode to...



You never seem to fail me,
as much as I fail you.
You make sure I am up,
and you make sure I am asleep.

I can plan appointments around you,
and let others know when I'm not available.
Me and most plan our days around you,
and you plan yours in a 24 hour sequence.

Most would have no order in their life without you,
and you don't even care.
My clock probably runs my day more than anything else.
Class to class to Class.
From one job to another.
The only 'time' we know to go is when we look at the clock.

But their does come a point and time when you stop,
and don't wake us up,
and those are the only time we tend to notice you.
Even though you've been faithful to us for 6 months.

Slowly, but surly, we will then unbeknownst to us love you, until you mess up, again.

Litany Imitation

You are the rock and the strength,
the happiness and the giver.
You are the kindness
and the love.
You are the most helpful,
and the understanding.

However, you are not still,
 constantly on the go,
or thinking of something to do.
And you are certainly not carefree.
There is just no way that you are carefree.

It is possible that you are dependable,
maybe even most dependable,
but you are not even close
to being organized.

And a quick look in the mirror will show
that you are neither easy
nor difficult.

It might interest you to know,
speaking of the plentiful imagery of the world,
that I reflect you.

I also happen to be determined,
focused
and hardworking.

I am also the witty
and the emotional.
But don't worry, I'm not the rock and the strength.
You are still the rock  and the strength.
You will always be the rock and the strength,
not to mention the happiness and--somehow--the giver.
 
 
This is to my mom. She is always organizing events trying to help people in our valley who are less fortunate, on top of working a physical job. She definitely keeps me in my place. :)

Introduction

Hello! My name is Brittney Blankenship, clearly, and this is semester will be four years at LCSC. This means I have put English off for as long as possible. I can't stand reading type of English, but I love to write about it. I'm an odd duck, I know. I am a Business Admin with Management Accounting Emphasis major. I love money and numbers. I have two jobs. I work at the Northwest Children's Home mostly, and then Bumpers Family Fun Canter only when needed. I grew up in Lewiston, and graduated from LHS. Go Bengals. And, my most favorite thing is Disney. I like to think I'm a pretty friendly person, and try to be as helpful as possible so if anyone needs help or wants to study together, just get a hold of me.
