The water is wide, I cannot get oer
Neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I.
-The Water Is Wide (Traditional folk song. Rene Clausen)

loquacious- talking or tending to talk much or freely; talkative; chattering; babbling; garrulous:

Hmm, yes, quite right. Today's picture is brought to you by Leonid Afremov. I found him on deviantart.com and apparently he is pretty famous!!! He is one of the most brilliant painters of our time I think! He always uses the same medium and utensil! And always the same crazy assortment of colors in the background...which isnt really in this picture! (look at his other ones if you want to see!!! psh silly person you are!)

The quote I picked for today is from a song I sang in high school. It is very pretty! but really sad!!! I LOVE it though! :P Look it up on youtube or something if you want to hear it! Its about this person who falls in love but their love ditches them...sad right?! (good think I have been there done that!!! and now have an awesome new person of my own!) AAAAAAAnywho! listen to it...or dont. whatever!!!

Today's word I chose because it is fun to say and my english teacher from last semester said it a lot....mostly cause it applied to her :P! I am pretty loquacious myself! (that would be why I have a blog....:D)

.O OMG ITS A ONE EYED SURPRISED SMILE FACE!!!!

ok got that off my chest.

WELL I am bored with this already....talk to you creepy blog stalkers later!

carpe diem!

Reality continues to ruin my life. -Bill Watterson

Wow has it been a looooooooong time since I was on this thing. Almost exactly a year! So much to talk about! But first, about the photo and the quote. I really have no idea why I chose that picture, I just like it! I have a thing for photo's of light bulbs. They just light me up inside, you know? They are just so hot sometimes! I picked the quote because I really feel like anyone including myself can really agree with it. In case you did not already know Bill Watterson is the amazing man who created the Calvin and Hobbes comic strips!

Also today's word is......drum roll please!!!!

Cattywampus!!! It means "Askew, disarrayed, or disorderly"

Yeah that one made me laugh too. Which would be why I chose that one! So I started college this past fall and it is a B-L-A-S-T!!! Also I would like to comment on how if I am really excited about something or just feel like making it seem like I am, I always add three exclamation marks at the end. I do not know why! Not two. Not four. Three. Sometimes I baffle myself!

Ok so my BFF is almost done with her book!!! I am so excited!! It is really great! You must buy it when we get it published!! http://violetstrike.blogspot.com/

Ah well I am bored with writing already! But do not fear! I will be looking at this same screen wondering what to write about tomorrow!!! (and again with the three!!! .....)

carpe diem

Ah, pfft, WORDS

"--true love is the best thing in the world, except for cough drops. Everybody knows that." - The Princess Bride

Quocker-Wodger - A wooden puppet on a string

I chose this quote today only because it is the quote I have been very fond of recently. Also it is from my most favorite book of all time! (yes yes...also my favorite movie) I have read the book about a Kajillion times. Yes kajillion is now a word cause I made it one. (Take that Webster!)

The word I chose for today is so outrageous...I could not help myself! How did a word like this ever get into the dictionary?!
Well don't ask me! I have no idea! That would be why I asked you!!!

Do you ever think of how words get into the dictionary, I mean, I know that they get in mostly when a word is used a lot by a lot of people...but seriously! How come these crazy words get in here but never something like "kajillion"? It baffles me.

The picture I chose because it looks cool and it gives the impression that it is night...and it is night right now as I write to all you people! SO! That is why I picked it!

Also everyone must listen to Owl City! He is pretty much amazing! Love the song fuzzy blue lights!

Well I am very tired and will hopefully write again soon...unlike I have been...naughty me...

Carpe Diem!!!

Summer afternoon - Summer afternoon... the two most beautiful words in the English language.
Henry JamesBritish (US -born) author (1843 - 1916)

The word of the day is SUMMER. It means I wish it was summer again 'cause it is way better than winter, 'cause you are warm and not cold all the time!

So you might be wondering "hmm why is this the word of the day?" Well. It's because I get sick of winter really easily. I like it for about a week then I wish it had never happened in the first place. That winter didnt even exist, so that it just went fall.....SUMMER! I am a very thin person, and my body embraces the cold and takes forever to get warmer...not. fun.

In case you didnt notice, I do not like winter. I also have not been on in a while. Even though I said last time that I would try to work harder at updating more often...yeah...not gonna happen.

So how was everyone's Christmas?

Mine was great! My mommie got me a sapphire ring...it is so pretty! Christmas was a good time this year....I definately had plenty to eat! As my boyfriend would say...I had many a Food Baby this week. So many diferent Christmas' with lotsa people! *groans* So....much....food....

Well...I do have a bit of a life and have to go now...blog to you latah! (ok so i also cant think of anything else to write about)

carpe diem!

Happy: Gay: Chipper: Jolly: Merry

And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.: Bible, Luke xii.

The word I have chosen for today is Wassail. It is a very yummy drink made around Thanksgiving and Christmas...although mostly during Christmas. Personally I ADORE Wassail! It's a pumpkiny-orangy-spicey-hot beverage.

Wowie wow wow! I have not been on here in a LONG time! And I am sorry about that! You all must have missed me terribly! I know I did! It is now my favorite time of year! No, no it's not because it's fall or almost winter. (Actually I only like winter for approximately 2 weeks. Then I loathe it.) It is almost Thanksgiving and Christmas! I just love it all because of all of the happiness and funnessessess...yeah that is so NOT a word. But I think I have the point across.

So we all know how much I love cute things that make me laugh. Well I found this live webcast of 6 Shiba Inu puppies! THEY ARE SO STINKIN' CUTE! If you wanna see the most adorable puppies EVER click here -> HERE

Today I have decided to make this blog about being HAPPY so I thought I would post a bunch of the cinnamon of happy. (yes I know the correct term is synonym but I like cinnamon better)
Aaaaaaand heeeeeeeeeeeere they are! :::
blessed, blest, blissful, blithe, can’t complain, captivated, cheerful, chipper, chirpy, content, contented, convivial, delighted, ecstatic, elated, exultant, flying high, gay, glad, gleeful, gratified, intoxicated, jolly, joyful, joyous, jubilant, laughing, light, lively, looking good, merry, mirthful, overjoyed, peaceful, peppy, perky, playful, pleasant, pleased, sparkling, sunny, thrilled, tickled, tickled pink, up, walking on air

I left the one hilighted cause that one is odd and so if you wanna know what it is just click on it.

Well I have to go scare the crap out of someone so I will blog to ya later! And sooner that I did last time!

Ok so this is a picture of the Faeroe Islands! Where one of my best friends lives! It is a pretty incredible place that I hope to visit someday!

Do not protect yourself by a fence, but rather by your friends.

Czech Proverb

I chose this quote today because it reminded me of my great and crazy friends that are there to protect me even when I don't think I need it and even when it is from myself. So thank you my friends.

Today's word is ......................Gongoozler! It means "idle spectator". I felt partial to the letter "G" today so this is the word I found! It is very fun to say!

So whoever loves the fall raise your hand! If you could see me you would see that I am raising not one, but TWO hands right over my head and I am waving them around like a moron! I love the fall. I love that you can wear a jacket or a sweatshirt and be all cozy and also there are a lot more cool clothes you can wear in the fall. Like scarfs! I LOVE scarfs! I am wearing a black and white one right now!! And this brings me to tell you where I would like to be today! In an apple orchard. Preferably on a mountain. Overlooking the sea. With all the leaves all pretty colors. With everything looking like a movie. Ok ok ok. Got myself a little carried away here...but I really do just love the fall!

Have you ever had to pee while on the phone with somone important? (Pardon my french) It is not enjoyable cause it isnt like you are talking to a friend and can be like "hold on, I have to pee." No. You have to hold it till the idiot you are talking to gets off the phone because you dont want to be rude.

Oh and telemarketers just...UGH...they drive me nuts!

Ok sorry for that just a little somthin' somthin' I had to get out there.

For the time being. Have a great day! I know I will!

Carpe Diem!

ps alisha's book is AMAZING

And Miles To Go Before I Sleep

Ok so I would really love to be living in that house. It is a doorway of a house in Greece.

Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length.
Robert Frost
US poet (1874 - 1963)

So I chose this quote today because I am short. I am also quite happy all of the time (even right now I am grinning like a fool) and so I thought that this would be a good quote for today! Plus also I love Robert Frost. His poems are my favorite. (If you didn't get that the title is from Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening, to put it bluntly, you are an idiot.)

Today's word is "Higgledy-Piggledy" which means "In confusion or disorder." I don't know why exactly I picked that word. Only that I wanted the word to start with an "H" and I wanted it to be an odd one! (Aw dont worry word! I'm an odd one too!)

So I would like to start the rest of my blog by saying sorry for having not written in a couple days. Certain family members of mine keep stealing my computer!

So I figured out why so many college students drink...well most of them anyways. They are afraid of the future and change and what is going to happen to them after this. They drink all those problems.

NOW! Onto a happier topic! Dances are fun even if you have no idea what you are doing! I'm sure a lot of people wish that they were longer (including me!). They do need to start playing better songs though. I mean, come on! Soulja Boy was old a loooooong time ago. Ugh, seriously.

I am now going to point out some random/obvious things:
The public bathroom will ALWAYS smell bad.
Missing someone really sucks.
Teenagers will NOT clean their room (unless they have ocd).
Talking to your dog DOES mean you are crazy.
People don't call you as much when you are bored.
It really does hurt to break a nail (despite other people's beliefs in that).
Women do not need purses, they just have them cause they are great accessories.

Well I cannot think of anything else to wright except Violet Strike is going to be a book-must-buy! And also that I cannot sleep!!! So I will "blog to ya later"

carpe diem!

5, 6, 7, 8!!!

Truth is what stands the test of experience.
Albert Einstein
US (German-born) physicist (1879 - 1955)
Choreography : the art of composing ballets and other dances and planning and arranging the movements, steps, and patterns of dancers.

Today's topic is ballet! I LOVE it! Ballet is very misunderstood. A lot of people don't think that it is a very difficult thing to do. Let me tell you right now: it is one of the hardest things you will ever do. I know a football player that is in dance and even he says dance is harder! SO THERE! Plus also it is pretty sweet to be able to say that you can do the splits. Hmm...I don't like banana splits.

I would just like to say right now that tights are not uncomfortable. Panty hose are! But not tights! I think that is why dancers wear them. Because they aren't as uncomfortable. I remember that there was this old tv show that this random woman walked into this shop that the two main characters were in and asked for tights and tried them on. She then proceded to jump off a counter straight onto the floor in the splits. Ok even though I can do the splits...it dosnt make it hurt less to even think about doing that!

Today I would like to be in the Covent Gardens watching Don Quoxite.

I didnt really feel like writing today so sorry if this blog sucks.

carpe diem!

And on the Third Day There Was War

2008-09-24T12:30:00.000-04:00

Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys.: P.J. O'Rourke

Casus Belli or in other words : war.

Ok. So. What is up with all of those goonies trying to stop the war? Do they not know that if we pull out that we could possibly loose our whole country!? I know it really isn't that great but still! (yeah I'm prolly movin to like...England or somthing! Somewhere they speak english...I can hardly speek that let alone another language! Now back to my topic...) People need to understand that even though a lot of things are going wrong here, there are still a lot of people out there doihng all they can to let us keep our freedom.

Rant over. Sorry about that! So I have to say that I really like the pic I chose for today. It makes me laugh. And yes I know there is a lot of meaning behind this picture and yada yada yada but I just think that I like it superficially! It makes me laugh. And I love things that make me laugh!

Haha my dog is staring at me here on his couch...I took his spot. Oops! But I really dont feel like moving!

I would also like to say that I did, in fact, get to read more of my friend's book last night! It is going very well!!

Well I have a bunch of cleaning to do today...I know it's no fun but someone has to do it. Ugh. I hate being responsible.

Today I would like to be in Adrian Michigan...because it has the same name as the amazing character in Alisha's book!

carpe diem!!

Of Shoes and Ships and Sealing-wax

2008-09-23T18:08:00.000-04:00

This is the picture of the day!!! It's of a 500 year old olive tree. I know! It's incredible right!?

(well apparently you have to click on that little rectangle to see the picture)

Todays Quote (yes I know I never said anything about a quote but I decided that I really liked them and so I was going to include those in my "___ of the day(s)") :

Nothing discernable to the eye of the spirit is more brilliant or obscure than man; nothing is more formidible, complex, mysterious, and infinite. There is a prospect greater than the sea, and it is the sky; there is a prospect greater than the sky, and it is the human soul.
Victor Hugo, Les Miserables
French dramatist, novelist, & poet (1802 - 1885)

So Les Mis is my favorite musical of all time and so I thought this would be fitting for my blog. Since it is about what I want on here and not what you want...(I mean...it IS my blog!)

Word of the day is: Floccinaucinihilipilification-The action or habit of judging something to be worthless.
The reason why I picked this word today is because it is completely rediculous. And I love completely rediculous things!

Today I would really love to be in France. Seeing as how I bought myself a new hat and scarf that looks very artistic. I really feel like I should be in France, with all the Francy people!

You may be wondering from my last post what the Faroe Islands are! They are a very insignificant, hard to see, middle of nowhere, little islands. The only reason I really know about these is because one of my best friends lives there! I met her in school, she was an excange student, and no one knew where in the halibut she was from. So now I am trying my best to get those little islands out there! YOU DO EXIST! I PROMISE!

My other best friend is currently writing a book that should get published, and most deffinately will anyways (if she decides to pic up the pace!). You should look at her blog Violet Strike.

"The time has come", the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes and ships and sealing-wax,
And cabbages and kings."

Whisper Sweet Nothings...

2008-09-22T17:55:00.000-04:00

So this will be my place to write about absolutely anything. Musings, music, books, news. Absolutely anything! (Unless it's about old men picking their seats...ugh that would just be nasty!) Get ready to be entertained! I am a very random person. See above statement in the parenthesis. I am going to use this blog to break out of my children-are-meant-to-be-seen-and-not-heard state of mind! To finally be able to say what I wish! To spring from the clutches of childhood! I WILL BE FREE! ...oh...sorry...got a little carried away...

Anyway...

A lot of things will be talked about on here like...why you should know about the Faroe Islands, why a lot of great writers are not published, which writers are amazing but complete idiots like, say, Stephanie Meyer. Today's blog is about this blog. Obviously. If you haven't figured that out yet...go back to school. If you did figure that out by yourself, give yourself a pat on the back! You deserve it!

I will also be telling you my word pic of the day, favorite picture of the day, and also where I would like to be at the moment.

Today I would like to be on the beach.

(aww I just heard the cutest little laugh outside my window!) Blog to ya later!

carpe diem!
