Weekly Warriors #1 - Firepaw's Initiation This is the first entry of my project, Weekly Warriors! In this project, my goal is to draw a Warriors prompt every week in a mock-traditional art style.

I remember liking her a lot, then disliking her

What could Briarlight be talking about?? I like to think there are days/nights where Jayfeather just doses off listening to her talk about anything. She's happy to serve as white noise.

There are approximately 1,013,913 words in the English language, and I can't string any together to create a clever title

Now, before I get started, let’s get something out of the way: this isn’t a very fun topic to read about. I don't mean anyone offence by that. But I don't think you- or anyone- really cares that much. I love learning about people, but I think there are plenty other ways to do it.

Don’t worry, it may just be me, but this isn’t the best subject to write about either. 

On that note, we need you to give us ideas, because sometimes we just can’t decide on them ourselves. So please, if you have an idea, send us a message, and we’ll try our best to write about it. 

On to the topic. 

My favourite subject would have to be English, hands down. I’ve always been infatuated with reading, writing, debating, and English class gives me a chance to work at those passions. I love Shakespeare. I love reading critically. I’m not sure why, but I love writing essays. Perhaps I just enjoy seeing my thoughts down in a logical way, my friends constantly poke fun at me for it, but I can’t help it. Of course, there are some parts I detest (read: comprehension questions), but most of the time I cannot wait until English rolls around. 

That being said, I have to acknowledge my history class this year. It may be the teacher that is drawing me to the subject (it’s a bonus that he constantly stops the class to tell stories, related to history and otherwise). Really any class that allows me to think critically, learn about people and the way they think, and write essays is fine by me. Any class that isn’t math. 

You really are tremendous,

Caleb gets to ramble about school. Oh, what fun!

School has been in progress for a while now here in America and people seem all busy again. There are projects to be done and subjects to be studied. And it's all quite a mess. But luckily, today there's a fun topic: What is my favorite school subject?

Studying has always been fun to me. Scratch that. Learning has always been fun to me. Studying can be boring, tedious, and sometimes just plain stupid. But learning new things is... it's amazing. It really is. When I was a kid (much younger kid) I soaked up all the information like a sponge. I was in awe at how much an elephant ate daily and the correct spelling of the word “yacht.” Life was very beautiful and interesting.

Sadly, though I lost a lot of the passion and energy as I moved into high school.

Disclaimer: I'm actually homeschooled so my experience is probably very different than most of you Warriors (I think that's our witty pet name for you guys, sorry). Basically, my parents buy me curriculum and tell me to learn it. Overall, it's been a relatively negative experience, but I'll probably talk about that some other time.

So anyway, high school became, in a sense, information hurdles to jump over and no fun. I started feeling contempt towards any sort of standardized learning and that is basically the position I'm in at this point in my life. I will give a break, though. Crash Course has made learning entertaining and exciting so if you don't know about them, give them a shot!

Wow, I didn't mean to write that much; it sort of blurted out onto a page. Okay. Got to make this snappy.

Quick Answer: My favorite subject in school has to be History. Hands down. You can't screw up History. It's always awesome to relive the trials and triumphs mankind, people very much like you and me, endured before us. I think that's beautiful. And to know right now we're creating history by just existing! ...god, I'm a nerd sometimes. You know I'm a nerd when History textbooks turn me on.

I love English too, but I don't really like the boring element in learning grammar. I enjoy reading and creating English much more.

Best Regards,

Caleb

PS Sorry for all the mistakes, Sammi :P

Hi. You love Musicals. I love Musicals. I think it would be the perfect union. Don't you think, Sammi?

Yes, I would, Anon. Someone call the priest!

"Study history, study history. In history lies all the secrets of statecraft."

Hello my fellow bloggers!

Like my fellow Warrior Jared, I absolutely and completely love History; World History, American History, History of books, History of the Culinary industry. All of it!

After Culinary school, I plan on going to The College of William & Mary where I would (major in French) and minor in History.

Part of why I love history is because I know a great deal about it. Coming from a military background I've been to a great amount of fundraisers and parties, most of which were held in places such as museums. This eventually bringing me to love all museums (except the Air and Space Museum in D.C. I HATE THAT MUSEUM SOOOOOOO MUCH!).

Okay, I have to go now. Bare: The Musical is calling me and then I have to read a Brave New World for English, 50 questions for Government and of course multiple Pre-Calculus problems. Not to mention my essay for Culinary, College applications that need to be filled out.

Adios, everybody! God only knows you'll be having a great deal more fun than I will.

P.S. I'm not going over this so please don't yell at me for any mistakes. In fact you can blame Caleb for any mistakes. IN FACT ALL MISTAKES ARE CALEBS.

HAIL?

HAIL.

Sorry, I've been listening to Night Vale too much, I guess.
