Girls
are like
apples on trees.
The best ones are
at the top of the tree.The
boys don't want to reach
for the good ones because they
are afraid of falling and getting hurt.
Instead, they just get the rotten apples
from the ground that aren't as good,
but easy. So the apples at the top think
something is wrong with them, when in
reality, they're amazing. They just
have to wait for the right boy to
come along, the one who's

brave enough to
climb all
the way
to the top
of the tree.

This is Bunny.

Bumper Stickers

These are real life bumper stickers:

Dyslexics are teople poo

Friends help you move. Real friends help you move bodies.

It's lonely at the top, but you eat better

All generalizations are false

If at first you do succeed, try not to look astonished

Time is the best teacher; unfortunately, it kills all its students

I majored in liberal arts. Would you like fries with that?

Stress is when you wake up screaming and you realize you haven't fallen asleep yet

Your proctologist called, he found your head

If you're physic, think "honk"

Please do not honk-driver sleeping

Proud member of PETA- People Eating Tasty Animals

Some people just don't know how to drive. I call them "everyone but me"

See ya

Flubbed Headlines

Here's some flubbed headlines. You have to think: 'what were these people thinking?'

Infertility Unlikely to be Passed On

State Says Cost of Saving Money Too High

Deer and Turkey Hunt For Disabled People

Pecan Scab Disease Causing Nuts to Fall Off

These are great. My favorite four are above. I've got to go, so I will try to update as soon as possible.

Ciao,

T. A. Barron's "Merlin's Dragon"

These are some awesome quotes from one of my favorite books, T. A. Barron's Merlin's Dragon. Here is the first one:

"At the moment an egg cracks, its magic, at last, is released into the world. Or is it the other way around? Is the world, at last, allowed inside the egg?'

"Memory can be hot as molten lava, or cold as a frozen glacier. But it's rarely reliable. Even when it come back to you, clear and true, it can vanish on the next gust of wind. Sometimes it's not really even a memory. Just a hint, or a glimpse, or a mirage. Yet strange as it sounds, that sort of memory can be the truest of all."

"Eat or be eaten, they say. Not very encouraging words. And not very accurate, either. For I discovered early on in life that it's perfectly possible to eat a lovely delicious meal-and then, when it's time for dessert, to get eaten."

"I learned something valuable that day-a lesson I've never forgotten. It's worth listening well to what you hear. No matter how bizzare the story. . . or how bizarre the story teller."

"Who was it who warned, be careful what you wish for? Whoever they were, I'd like to crush them under a mountain of boulders. Tear out their innards. Roast them over searing hot flames. And then. . . I'd tell them they were right."

"Size is more elusive than I ever guessed. It's less something you see, more something you feel. The same person can feel as huge and enduring as a mountain, or as small and transient as a breath."

So those are the first batch. I've got more coming, just you wait. These suckers are freaking awesome.

See y'all around,

Summertime

I have 2 days left of school. TWO DAYS. I'm so close. Here's a poem that I find "inspiring" (I think its good).

Late nights
Water fights
Beach time
Pillow fights
Ice Cream
Sweet Dream
School's out
Summer's IN

Another one:

Late nights
Water fights
Cool shades
Lemonade
Sleepin' in
Tanned skin
School's out
Summer's IN

Soon, I shall be putting up these awesome little thingies from this book I read. They're cool.

When I started this blog, I promised my self I would update EVERYDAY. See how well that panned out. So, I'm sorry. Not that I have anyone to be sorry to.

Live On,
~Rowan

Absence

To make myself feel better, I have too pretend that all you people who I imagine read my blog and actually don't were devastated by my long absence. Sadly, I must fly away again. (And I know no one actually reads this, never fear for my sanity.)
