Megan.
The snow. It's finally here.
A new outlook on life, a new scenery to dream upon.
To watch each flake fall, oh so gently and peacefully, gives me a feeling of wonder. Where will it drop? How will it affect the ground? Will kids eat it? Play or walk through it?
I've always wanted to really look at a snowflake.
Not just take a glance, but observe how it's different from the rest. To look at each individual part and find each piece to the puzzle that makes it one.
I sometimes find myself looking out the window at school or in my house and getting lost in the flakes. Almost as if they're carrying me away in the midst of all the chaos and stress.
Oh, how I wish it could, sometimes.
I'd have to say one of my favorite parts of winter is driving down the road to get into my neighborhood. It's the perfect path to see the crystal-like snow glimmer on the trees, the thick, white circles landing on our car. I just love seeing the white on the trees, even without the snow falling.
The season basically brightens my mood.

Preparations.
Taking my notebook to school tomorrow.
Not that I don't take it every day.
You get what I mean. I'm taking it, intending to have somebody ELSE write in it.
Who to ask, who to ask, who to ask.

So, this was another question.
The question was: What is music to you?
But here's the deal.
I don't feel like asking any more questions. I don't need their opinions on random things.
I just want some freaking Things Not Heard so I can get on with this freaking project.
Note: Yeah, it's a project that I'm doing by myself, for myself, with a little help. Not something I'm forced to do. But something I've forced myself into.
So, now I just need random people I don't know that will write for me.

And the question is answered: For the impending zombie apocalypse, what will be your weapon of choice?
Christian: The cold of Alaska. I will go to Alaska and since the zombies have no body heat, they will freeze. Then I will crush them with a hammer.
Riana: An m3. It's a machine gun, it kills faster....or an ak47.
Carter: My weapon would be an FAL with an acog scope 'cause it is a really good weapon that is one shot, one kill, easily.
Libby: A machine gun because it's fast and easy to use, or a softball bat because I can swing hard, and just double tap to the head, and they're dead.
Alexis: Flamethrower. Because I can go far and kill more.
Lily: Holy water. (looks like someone mixed up zombies with vampires.)
Bob: There won't be a zombie apocalypse. (and after eight hours of arguing, he finally came up with somewhat of a good answer. An atomic bomb. Even though he'd most likely kill himself in the process.)
Random person from ChaCha: It has been reported that with an HK416 sub-carbine, you'll be set. It has a shorter barrel for easier carrying and larger round than an m16. Good luck out there!
Matt: An mg42 because the giant ass bullets can blow them to pieces.
Noah: Flame thrower. (Or how he said it, Flame throwahh.)
Rayanna: The scorpian from Halo because it's beast and makes your life a whole lot easier.
Emmi: A big knife because it cuts zombies and stuff. (No offense intended, Emmi, but you'd die within the first second with only a knife that cuts zombies and stuff.)
Drew: Brass knuckles, pistol, and a knife.
Firespark (if you didn't already catch it in the comment): Oh gods, can we have only one? Because I'm pretty sure I'd start out with a flame thrower or some other way to wield fire because I figure, they're already undead, so will blunt force or piercing REALLY kill them? But anything physical can be consumed by fire, so there you go. (plus I have a certain appreciation for that particular element ;) But, if my fuel runs out (you know, if it's the end of the world and all and there's no more handy), I'd probably want something like a sword for backup... though I'd settle for a baseball bat. :)

And we're moving quickly.
That's right. Next question. One day after the last question.
Am I getting pushy or what?
But hey, this is my time, my questions, your answers, it's fun, just shut up and go with it. The last one was serious and meaningful, I figured I'd make this one just...a question.
A simple question that's fun to answer. Very fun to read the answers.
And so I ask you, my friends, or friend, due to the fact that I only REALLY have two followers, For the impending zombie apocalypse, what will be your weapon of choice and why?
Honestly, I'm choosing two. The bow and arrow and the sword. Come on. The bow and arrow is just my thing. I crave it. I need it. I'd probably suck at it, but I think I'd look pretty kick-ass. And the sword...I've read many books, young grasshopper. I believe that I could master it eventually. At least chop some zombie heads off.
You know how I am with zombies.
What weapon will you use to fight for your life?

And the question is answered: What Is Art?
Megan: Anything created from the soul.
Ian: Art is life, emotion, and passion for the things you love. It makes you proud of yourself to see what you have done and nobody can tell you otherwise.
Aid: Anything you want it to be.
Alexis: The way you express yourself. How you see the world in your perspective, and how you feel towards something or someone.
Unknown person from ChaCha: Paper pricking is a fancy name for poking holes in paper. Paper peircing is another term used in art for poking holes. ChaCha! [I REALLY HATE THEM.]
Emmi: Art is a creative way of expressing your feelings, and art is whatever you think it is.
Bob: Art is colors that people try to express themselves with. I don't know, I hate art.
Rayanna: I think art is anything you put your heart into, pretty much. Painting, drawing, music, sculpting, etc.
Maddy: Art is a way of showing how a person is feeling, it's dance, painting, drawing, or anything that makes you feel happy as a person.
Drew: Art is a way to express yourself.
Riana: A way to express yourself and to be creative.
Christian: Art is the creativity in human beings. Music is a form of art. As well as drawing and sculpting. Art can be found anywhere.
Libby: Kind of a way to express your feelings in a creative way.
Matt: Let's see, art is the products of human creativity.
Lily: Something that expresses people's feelings.
Cheyenne: I think art is an artist way of expressing himself or herself and that all art is beautiful. And that without art, life would be boring. So in a way you could say that we would need art to live.
Trevor: Something that makes you feel emotional.
And if you missed it in the comment, here's Firespark: Art is your soul bleeding out, bursting forth, or shimmering from you, for the world to see, or for you alone to examine. It's a physical representation of what we believe or feel or want or fear. Some say that all art already exists; that we only stumble upon it, the stories or pictures or movements, and it is up to us to interpret what we've found, to bring it into this physical realm so that it can be shared and experienced together. Some say that only then, when we take up the charge to interpret for the world, do we become artists. I don't know. But I believe that art can be both personal and outside of ourselves as well. We feel something or learn something, and we want to share. But I think that sometimes we also feel what others feel, and by becoming artists, we become a voice for the world, for all of existence. Art is the elusive and intangible made real.
