Armoring

Well today was the first armoring session that I have been to. It was kind of neat, I got to learn more clearly how the electric weapons work, and how the box decides who scores and who is off target and whatnot. It's good stuff.

Unfortunately though I did not get much sleep last night, I especially didn't get any REM sleep. So I was cranky. I tried not to show it to anyone, but it came off a few times. I felt better about that though, because I wasn't the only one who was cranky. Jenny, the president of fencing, was extremely cranky. In fact, it was her crankiness that caused mine on several occasions. She was adamantly more vocal about it though. Apparently, sitting down and making bows from ribbon, and decorating vases was not what Jenny wanted to be doing.

I'm going to be going to a party tonight at Chris's house tonight. Mary is probably going to be there. I'm not sure how I feel about that right now. I mean, I'm not sure how I will act. Especially in my state of tiredness. I always get so depressingly emotional when I haven't slept enough. I think it's mostly that my brain is tired and I can't keep my reign tight. Oh well we'll see.

I got creative once when I was in a similar state of mind. Take it as you will.

In the mind are many secrets
As a box full of dark
But emotion is the piercing light
The light within the heart

The sun rises
Chasing away the night
But darkness comes,
Again to hide the light

Time edges forward
Without ending
The eye knows only
The darkness is descending

The sun rises
The night comes once more
Time continues moving
Life stops and asks “What for?”

The heart knows
The mind can lie
The light falls
And blinds the eye
