Christmas in Australia

I love dresses, especially chiffon ones, and this one that I found at a local thrift shop is fantastic. Despite its filmy material, if still manages to have the right amount of weight for spinning. I especially love the velvet trim! It's a bit strange to see a holiday print in such a summery cut and fabric, but it's a very comfortable and interesting find!

Today at school there was an open mic event in honor of the launch of the Guildscript magazine! Guildscript is the school's arts and literary magazine, which students both write and produce. You submit stuff, and then the editorial board chooses the pieces it likes best.... then you're published! 

I read three things tonight, and had two poems of mine in the actual book. The poetry was amazing- it's a bit wonderful to see and hear all of this talent. Who knows who the next famous author will be? I wonder about that kind of thing a lot- who are my classmates going to become in the grand scheme of things? Am I sitting next to the future president?

In any case, the writing was fabulous!
