Six word memoirs
« on: August 10, 2008, 09:12:00 pm »
Similiar to two sentence stories, but different.  The goal is to sum up your life/an important event/etc. in six words.

There are some examples for you.


Thought it might be fun to try to write some.  Whaddya think, guyz!?

Cyanide - I did NOT just have that orgasm!
Bowers - I really wanna come

I feel like I haven't been living my life.
I just want to do at least one illegal thing
