The time has come Empty The time has come

Post by Gadreille Wed Sep 09, 2009 6:43 pm


_________________________________________________________________________

"The time has come," Ryona said,
"To talk of many things:
Of school--and home--and holidays--
Of term papers--(it stings!)--
And why time seems to move so fast--
And if red bull gives you wings."

"I weep for you," Ryona said:
"I deeply sympathize."
With sobs and tears she sorted out
Those of the largest size,
Holding her pocket-handkerchief
Before her streaming eyes.

"O Ryona," said the FOGers,
"You've had a pleasant run!
When shall you be posting again?'
But answer came there none--
And this was scarcely odd, because
Alas, school's not yet done.

_________________________________________________________________________


This isn't goodbye!

Unfortunately, school starts Monday, Sept. 14th, and I will not be on as much as I am now. I will use this thread to pop on and let everyone know when I'm in a crunch and can't post (most likely around midterms and finals, five and ten weeks away).

Boo, full time schedule. Sad

Whoa, my brother's birthday is September 14th! Shocked
Well actually I guess this happens a lot, with many schools starting on the 14th. Laughing

Good luck with everything, Ryona! You know we always got your back! Smile
(sounds funny to say it like that... need better colloquialism.... =P)

Poem could use some rhythm, but it's definitely full of heart and win! heart cheers

Really cute poem! ^.^

Thanks for the heads up. I hope that school doesn't kick your butt with homework and tests and such, but midterms and the like are always time-stealers.

Best of luck with your classes!

Last year (I think it was last year) school started on my birthday, September 10th. That was not cool.

Anyway, I don't think I will be needing to make one of these, as one of my only two classes is an online class...

Talk to Lewis Caroll about it. It's his poem, with some replaced words Smile

It was "The Walrus and the Carpenter", right? I don't know the name of the poet, but I'm pretty sure I recognize the poem itself. I've always loved that poem.

Anyway, I hope you still find time to hang around on the site. You seem to be one of the more late-night members, and myself being of that variety, I can't afford to lose anymore colleagues! Seriously, things get really boring in the wee hours of the morning.

Yes it is. I love the poem too.

Though to give Mr. Carroll some credit, I most likely didn't use the exact same rhythm as his original words had Smile I did my best though (even if that isn't very good)!

Only one more year of school though, granted I don't decide to get a credential or a masters degree, and then I can complain to FOG that I never get on because I work full time! ^_^

I'm not as much of a late night poster as Mr. Elestahr. I get the evening shift, he takes graveyard!

Get a second computer. cheers Home networking is fun, especially for LAN head-to-head gaming. Smile

Not that our computers are anywhere near good enough do to stuff like that. Sad
But hey, it is nice to send network messages and share files and all that. Thumbs Up

Aww. I just now read your amazing poem. It made me happy because it was well executed. Good luck with everything that is craptastic, and we'll diligently await your more active return. ^^_^^

Hey guys,
My aunt who lives with us fell and hit her head and after much blood sweat and tears we have her at the hospital which is major swine flu zone...anyway I'm having to pick up some of the responsibilities of her parents while they deal with the mess.
Also Taeo's bday is tomorrow, party saturday, two papers due tuesday...you get my drift. I dunno if Silv is gonna get on but I'm going to say goodbye until next week.

Oh God! Don't DO THAT! I almost panicked when I thought you were totally leaving. *WHEW!*

Understand about real life getting hairy for a bit. I'm doing school and about to go back to full time work too, so. I completely relate.

I will try to be on as often as I have been. My assignments aren't too tough, though I will probably need to help Ryona with some of hers. But anyway, my schedule isn't quite as tough as hers. And I can't carry as many family obligations as she does...
