  • simply a nerd


    so i finished reading Ender's Game Saturday night.  and even after having a 30-minute discussion about it with daniel, i didn't feel satisfied.  i needed to hash through the thoughts.  so i did.  i started writing.


    i ended up writing an analysis of sorts.


    i defied all forms and structures that i learned from high school and honed in college in my Lit classes.  my arguments are not airtight.  i used the personal (informal) "i".  and well... all my grammar is incorrect.  but however, i am proud of what i wrote... because it brought me to a conclusion.  this proved to me once and for all:  i don't write because it's fun.  i write because i HAVE to.  it's like a need burning inside me.


    check it out if you have a chance.  i do give away the ending though, so if you're planning on reading this GREAT book, don't read my analysis!
