A Challenge in Conciseness

It wasn't too long (in fact, it was probably half an ) ago when It happened. After four weeks of excuses and laziness, my resolve finally put its metaphorical foot down, and said that it was time to write a blog post.

So here I am. Now, because I am OCD by nature, and perfectionist by trade (being an overachieving Giftee and iBeer and whatnot), I can't possibly just skip past the last month's worth of events like nothing happened at all.

Still, I appreciate that my imaginary readers do have lives, thus don't have large quantities of free time at their disposal to plow through detailed descriptions of my day-to-day life.

And so, a solution came to me. Four weeks, four haikus. 17 syllables per week and 68 syllables in total. Challenge accepted.

Week One (August 26 - September 1)

Drove down to the States

Last-minute cruise vacation

Missed the hurricane (phew!)

Week Two (September 2 - 8) 

Bahaman sun bronzed

Return to school was daunting

So begins the end

Week Three (September 9 - 15) 

Horrifying list

Of things to do before sleep

Every single night

Week Three (September 16 - 22) 

Teachers denied rights

By Liberal government

What about our clubs?

Well, that's it. You're all caught up. 

Hope fully this teaches me to stop putting blogging off and make time to write something more frequently next time.

Ciao,
