Confidence vs. Arrogance

"Ah, short trip!" - Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides

"I call it luck." - Han Solo, Star Wars (1977 - not going to say "A New Hope," because that was not the original title)

"I'm awesome." - Barney Stinson from How I Met Your Mother, not sure about the episode's name, but Barney is played by the legendary Neil Patrick Harris. Need I say more?

---

Quite simply, I think that the difference lies on two things: whether one is really as great as one thinks or is kidding oneself; and whether one lets pride get in the way of the continuation of one's success. Savvy?

Back!

Sorry I didn't post yesterday. Weird schedule. I think I've already talked about California, so instead I'll discuss my second wrock (wizard rock) concert.

I met Alex Carpenter and Jason Munday - among others - and the Blibbering Humdingers were in the audience. They're my favorite. I met some new people not in the bands, too. I don't remember all the songs, but "California Dorks" was awesome as always.

Short post due to short memory. Goodbye!

Love and hugs,

Lewis

Lemon Curry?

The title is almost completely random (Monty Python reference). But today was quite busy: I went to the Eva Perry Library, where I have Printz meetings, and worked on ideas for a Rot & Ruin book trailer before doing a sort of written game of Chinese whispering (I put down "Lemon curry?" to begin - hence the "almost"). After, we traveled to Quail Ridge for writer's group. Everyone read really good stuff and so I am proud.

I might attempt to write a play soon.... Wish me luck. I have not much else to say, for I am tired.  I apologize.

Goodnight. Love,

Lewis

A Day Well Spent

I mentioned in an earlier post I saw X-Men: First Class this afternoon. After that I read for a while, then attended an orientation for volunteers at a local library. This is going to be fun. I met some new people there who seemed nice, plus I'll get to be around books, AND I get volunteer credit. This'll be great.

That was a short post, but it's nearly Thursday. Sorry!

'Night,

Lewis

New Blog - Winter Reviews

On this new blog, I review books. I suppose I just felt like a new one (I should still be using this one), so there.
