Chao- Why is everyone looking at Chao like that?
Random readers of blog- *stare at Chao annoyed*
YChao- I think you should take a look at your last post.
Agent Daisy- *holds up laptop*
Chao- What about it?
YChao- What the heck was that?! Are you trolling your own blog or something?!
Chao- Hey! It's called the beauty of language! This was constructed from a list of words people considered to be beautiful. It was a homework assignment while Chao's class was reading Gertrude Stein's Tender Buttons!
YChao- You do a lot of homework for classes, and I don't see you posting your failing essays or anything.
Chao- Ok, maybe it was for a good laugh. Almost everyone in class hated it at first, but some grew to like it as we examined it. Didn't care much for Tender Buttons, and Chao probably will never pick up that book again.
Agent Daisy- *tilts head to side*
Chao- People can compare that book and the past entry for this blog to cubism art. Some people like it after examining it, and some people don't. And some people dislike something simply because they don't understand it.
YChao- And does this and the past entry have anything to do with your typical theme in this blog?
Chao- Eh, kinda. Language is both a means of communication and art. Some readers will dislike something, but it should be OK to dislike something even after you examine it. After all, with fan fics or original stories, you don't need to like everything. Isn't that why there are a lot of genres out there?
YChao- Nope, it's all scam to make money.
Agent Daisy- *nods head*
Chao- That may be true, but Chao is still aiming to be an editor. Hopefully Chao won't get anyone who plans to write something like Tender Buttons.

Cinnamon
Cinnamon
The soft brown color. Enchanted epiphany, epitome. Not cataclysm. Not maladroit. A plethora of words. The quiescent of a home.

If there is sublime then there is a symphony. Mist is all around. Lullaby is soothing. Amorphous lands on the ear, drips from the mouth. Felicity.
Myriad in wants myriad in need.

Updates for November
Chao- *sleeping* *exhausted from school work*
YChao- *shaking a can of shaving cream* It's been a pretty long semester so far. The days are going quickly for Chao, but Chao has had a lot of papers to write, events to prepare for clubs, and has been attending a few workshops/conferences.
Agent Daisy- *gives YChao a feather*
YChao- *squirts shaving cream onto Chao's face* Hope those who read the Yu-Gi-Oh!! fan fic "Dreaming of You Redux" or the previous entry of Chao's 10th anniversary were able to enjoy them. We're not sure really if anything can be published or even worked on this month. Chao's got a lot of stuff to do! But entries for this month will be updated as normal. If Chao doesn't die this month, maybe some things can come in mid-December after final papers and group presentations have been completed.
Agent Daisy- *holds camera*
YChao- Hope to hear from you all soon! *tickles Chao with feather on nose*
camera- *click*
Chao- *smashes face*
