<p>ew I can't stand that poem. I mean, I love Eliot's artistry, but it's just so bland. I much prefer the love sonnets of Shakespeare :)</p>

<p>^^My prom was two years ago, in '06. Lol. :) And I can't go to my boyfriend's prom this year because I'll be 21 and won't be allowed in. But we went to my prom together and he doesn't really want to go to his so we're going to do something else. Maybe I can talk him into renting a limo for whatever we do. We'll see.</p>
<p>We had an extra-credit assignment in English my freshman year to copy that whole poem into our notebooks. It's kind of stuck with me ever since, so I want to memorize it. No real reason why. I actually hardly read poetry at all.</p>
<p>As for guitars, I just really really can't stand them. Acoustics are tolerable for a time, but electric guitars just... ugh. I can't stand them. I don't know why.</p>
