I know I haven't updated the blog since February, but I had a heavy workload this semester and I just didn't have much time to read. For those of you who don't know me, I study English Literature and Linguistics, which involves reading a lot. At the end of the day, I just didn't have time or motivation to continue reading.

Sometimes several stanzas would be just examples of some feeling, or similarities between objects or...
