Swimming in the water
Da moose da moose

He go to bed now.

Repeat twice

Dead moose dead moose

Da moose da moose
Not eatin up his supper
Da moose da moose
Where do he go now?
He decompose now

Frozen Fire

Hi!

I've read a great book recently. The book was called Frozen Fire, by Tim Bowler.
Here's one of my favorite quotes:
(Inspiring Quote of the Day)
IQD


"Days, weeks, months, years," said the boy. "Minutes and hours and seconds. I don't know about any of those things." — Tim Bowler: Frozen Fire

The book is a deep thinking read. When I finished reading Frozen Fire, the book was actually finished. The book left me to gather my thoughts and try to create an impossible solution . . . For ten minutes, I stared blankly out the window. The book has such depth. Tim Bowler is "the master of the philosophical thriller."


Top Books This Week:
  1. Frozen Fire -- Impossibly awesome. (See above.) Ages: 14 and up
  2. Whip It -- Spicy girl power . . . Lean, mean, blue-haired machine! Ages: 14 and up
  3. The Kindling: Fire-Us Trilogy -- Easy read, but interesting, gripping story line. Ages: 11 and up.

Hey!!!
How's it going?
Sorry I have posted in a while.
I've been working on this top secret mission.
I can't tell you, because it's "top secret."
I'm working for _____.
This mission is all about _____ and how I become a _______.

It involves reading books. (Check out my blog next week to find out more!)

Anyway . . .

Read any good books?

I've recently read a book called Everything is Fine by Ann Dee Ellis.
Personally, I didn't love love love it, but it made for a good read. It was about
a young girl living alone with her depressed mother after her younger sister, two year-old Olivia, died accidentally. The story was slightly funny, slightly sad, and slightly what we can call the "odd factor." Everything about Mazzy is just a little weird . . . Her cryptic lifestyle, her strange friendships, and her general outlook on life made me want to read more and more.


An entertaining, out-of-the-ball-park journey.

Everything is Fine. Tell them what they want to hear.

"O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name.
Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love
And I'll no longer be a Capulet."

Marshmallows

Hello!

Are you bored? You better not be. Right now, do something from this list:

Marshmallow Time!
1. Get a bunch of marshmallows and draw faces on them. Squish them with your feet.

2. Throw your marshmallow and catch it in your mouth. Go from beginner to proffesional!

3. Grab a friend and some marshmallows. Compete! Put the marshmallows between your toes and see who can eat them (out of the toes) the fastest! But wash your feet first!

4. Balance a marshmallow on the nose. 'Nuff said.

5. Make a marshmallow tower. Sneeze.

6. Stuff marshmallows in your mouth. See how many you can fit in. (If you want to kill yourself by choking, this would be a good way to go.)

7. Play marshmallow hide-and-seek!

8. Take small marshmallows and insert into nose. Sneeze.

Hello!

Hello, everyone!

Sorry I haven't posted for a while. I've got to go to dance class, but here's an interesting date I'll be celebrating on my blog (because I'm a serious loser).

Okay, Pi Day is coming up! The celebration of math . . . (My worst nighmare.)

Also . . . My friend's b-day! Her name is Tinker Joy! (No, she isn't my imaginary friend. She actually exists. I think.)

BYE!
