It's a fabulous day!

I managed to draw something realistic! I drew the girl I sit next to in Language Arts, and when I showed it to my friends, they recognized her! YAYZ!

I promised I would have a poem and a link every post, so.....

I
am a night owl.
I rarely wake up early,
and when I do
I go back to bed.
I know
many things
about the night,
like that there
is a time of night
when you are
neither groggy
nor awake,
a dreamlike state
in which
you notice things
that otherwise
don't exist.
I know that
the midnight sky
is neither
black nor blue
nor purple
but a pale,
pale pink
that appears
even after
the sun
begins to sink
The things that go bump
in the night
are friendly,
this I know
because they seem to be
afraid of me, too.
They never show their faces fully
and stay away from crowds
They're quite like you and me,
but they don't like
having people around
this dreamlike state
is neither real
nor fake
and that's the way
it was meant to be.
Early birds
may see in color
clearly everything they
show
But night owls
are shown the things
which scientists
are afraid to know

Heh. Heh. Procrastination. PSHAW, I never do that!

I was taking a test. And then to block out my brothers french horn, I played music. Which led me to these things. Which....led me....to these things.....which led me to a full hour of watching people dance while playing various instruments....which led me here to blog about it!

 :S

Is this my fourth blog today? Yep. I'm still halfway through a test that I should have finished last, last friday. Last YEAR. Literally.

I don't procrastinate at ALLL!!!

Chick Dances and Plays Instrument (hour long worth amusement)

Heres the same chick doing Party Rock :P

My Birthday Present This Year If You Are Feeling Generous

Nothing, nothing at all......

Okay so I stared at that last one for like AN HOUR......*zone
I love to blog. And that is that.

~Me, myself, and pie. With ice cream, but hold the pie. So just ice cream. :S

Oh. My gosh. Check this out. It's awesome.

It's a girl. Danicng. Playing the violin. Doing ballet. Dressed like a hobo. WHAT ELSE???

Epic Violin Dance

I think that might be a viola, not a violin though.

^The Viola is a Violin with a College Education^
:D THIRD POST TODAY!!!

Life

When I was five years old,
my mom was always telling me
that happiness was the key to life.
In school when they asked me
what I wanted to be when I grew up,
I wrote down
"happy"
When they told me
I didn't understand the assignment,
I told them they
didn't understand life.

~unknown

I'm Back and I have a PLAN! (yuss!)

Okay, first off:

This deserves a WOOOOO! That's what I say when something awesome happens, because it deserves a WOOOOOOOO! with me running about flailing my hands in the air. :)

I found out over The Holiday Break (it deserves a wooo!) that I have a triple citizenship. I didn't know that citizenships passed from parents to their kids, but hey, I ain't complaining! I have a British Citizenship because of that law, so I am all for it! Yeah!
I already knew that (of course) I have an American Citizenship, and a German one, and now a British one?
The Fabulous Traits inherited from These Citizenships:
American: Coolness
German: Awesomness
British: Class

You have to agree this makes the smoothest, most awesomely cool and classy person EVER when combined. Anyway. Besides for being happy about that, I made a plan for this Blog.
  1. Instead of me blogging just about Flame, I'm going to write more about me, too, as Flame is also partly just a nickname for me... so I'll update ya guys on the happenins in the fox world, but I'm the centerpiece here, people. Obviously. I mean, come on!
  2. In every blog post, I promise to add at least one poem and at least one link. The links will probably turn to mainly Keane songs (KEANE!) as I run out of ideas, and the poems will turn to incredibly poorly written limericks as I get bored, but still! It's better than nothing. I wonder if people say that whenever they get a stomach ache. Like, oh I'm starving *om nom noms cake* oh it gave me a stomach ache OH WELL, BETTER THAN NOTHING! I'm random. How did this conversation turn to cake? >:D
  3. It won't snow here! I know this really shouldn't be on the list, but I felt like you should know. What I mean by "its not snowing" is that it snows and either doesn't stick, or melts fast. Today I managed to get in a little sled riding, but you could see the grass and it stopped snowing after that. I just hope it stays cold enough so that it doesn't melt.
Keane is great. I don't know how many times I must--wait a minute, poem time.

Keane
is great
How many times must
I stress this?
It seems they are the soundtrack to my life,
and when I am sad
I can count on Tom
to make me laugh
in his interviews
When I am brooding and hate the world,
I must listen to Tim's music
and remember why life is beautiful.
And then when I need to lighten up,
I listen to like half of Richard's interviews and
I remember why swearing is funny.

So I know this was just a badly written rant broken up and indented, but I knew it would happen. I have no inspiration today. Maybe, I should just listen to Keane....

WATCH IT! YOU MUUUUUSSSSSSSTTTTT!!!

Here I am.

You and I

Take me for who I am and leave me to myself
I am not you, and you are not me
I should think that all this time you insisted we put between us helped you,
for it did not help me
I don't need time to think, 
to plan out our lives as you do
take me as I am now
and I will not leave you.

A fool and his money take time....

Yesterday is today,
and today is tomorrow
what does is matter,
anyway,
if your time is "wasting"?
Time is a concept,
you fool,
you dummy,
and cannot be wasted
as you waste your money.

Angel's Garden

In the Ides of March
a door opens
to behold to mankind
a beautiful sight.

An Angel's Garden,
bathed in sunlight
and wreathed in golden flowers
that capture the purity of the still air
Honeydew drips from the moist moss
on which the winged and graceful creatures watch
As he, man, from water dotted leaves
quenches his greedy, craving thirst
and now
cannot leave
not ever
never
trapped
until the Ides of March the following year
when the door opens
once more
and the next man is greeted by
the winged
creatures
one more
than the year before.

Greed

It is not because of thirst
that the rich man drinks;
but to deprive the man behind him
of the water in his sink.

Goodbye

Why must I go on
when I do not wish to?
People are telling me I've a family
a life to lead
Isn't it my choice
if I wish to leave?
They want me to stay
for selfish reasons only
because it would hurt them
if I were gone
Well,
I'm flattered, really
but
I have no intent on
staying in such a place
where neighbors are vain
and family greedy
I wish to go to a quieter place
where I may be
alone.

These are a couple poems I wrote the other day... some are funny, some not so much. Because if you couldn't guess, that last one was about wanting to commit suicide. Not that I'm suicidal. Quite the opposite. I pride myself in being the cheeriest of my friends. But I do understand why it is someone's choice.
If someone thinks they care about someone, and demand that they stay, they don't love them at all if staying will hurt that person. That is a selfish reason, because who would it hurt if the person died? It would hurt them, not the person who actually wanted to leave.

Not that I think people should be ungrateful for the life they are given. However, sometimes the life you are given isn't worth living in the first place.

Flame

[Please check this out, it is possibly the best thing I've ever heard in my life. Really. It's this guy called Ben Konstantinovic  and he is the most talented guitarist I've ever heard. He plays a song called
The Journey and it is awesome. Enough said. You know what? Just go listen to it.]

Forget it!

Never mind what I said there. I love that friend, and am not really all that angry. Besides, who can be pissed off when listening to Keane? Specifically Can't Stop Now?

Anyhow, I'm not mad anymore.....


Boy do I hate Unit Projects. They make you do all this CRAP, and you're like oh thank god I finished....and then they give you more crap to do! RAAAAAH! Here are some links:


Keane-Can't Stop Now        (ignore the super sucky video, please)       

Hunger Games-Official Trailer    (do you think they found the right Katniss or Peeta? Not me...)



Anyhow. Forget the last post. Click the links. Be a fox. OH WAIT, HA HA, YOU CAN'T BE A FOX! BUT I CAN! HA HA HA HA! >:S
