Two things, one's a contest.

1. I'm going to be in Hawaii all next week, so my blog posts will probably just be pictures.

2. No one commented below. So I'm going to try something. We're going to start a lovely conversation below about the poem, and whoever makes the best comment, wins a cheap souvenir from Hawaii. 

Good luck to everyone.

Floating Through Life

I have no pictures from it, but I went rafting today. Then I went to a little cafe called "Heaven on Earth." Also, no pictures. I'm running on fumes. I'm going to bed.

Unfortunately, the guilt of a 5 sentence blog post has kept me up. So here's some wise words.

Once in a golden hour

      I cast to earth a seed.

Up there came a flower,

      The people said, a weed.

To and fro they went

      Thro' my garden bower,

And muttering discontent

      Cursed me and my flower.

Then it grew so tall

      It wore a crown of light,

But thieves from o'er the wall

      Stole the seed by night.

Sow'd it far and wide

      By every town and tower,

Till all the people cried,

      "Splendid is the flower!"

Read my little fable:

      He that runs may read.

Most can raise the flowers now,

      For all have got the seed.

And some are pretty enough,

      And some are poor indeed;

And now again the people

      Call it but a weed.

Thanks Lord Al for that one. Comment what you think it's about below, I'd love to hear from everybody.

Voldemort Hug

I'm finally done with school, and I can start enjoying my summer. The first thing I did? Watch Harry Potter. Voldemort's awkward hug, that's all I'm saying.

A blog is a blog and I feel blah...g.

Well, I have one more day until the end of the term. I feel like this. I'm so tired I posted a picture of a tired cat on my blog, and I don't even care. I just don't care. I understand it's internet credibility image suicide, but I'm doing it anyway. There's the cat. Deal with it.

Bang!

Fantastic game. It's called Bang! Great way to spend a sunday night.

G+

Today, I got an invite to Google Plus (let me know if you want one) and I logged in.

 It was like walking into a brand new public building that hasn't been opened yet, and there is two or three people in there as well, and we're all asking each other what we think about it, and no one has really come to a conclusion they just know it's empty and the architecture looks great and that when the people all come in and there is a party going on in this currently empty building it's going to be the best building on the block with light spilling out onto the streets with people wanting to know "what is going on in that building that was empty?" and they come in to the well-lit room with all it's tables of lavish food, mainly seafood based finger-foods, and they think "this is a lot better than that last party we were at, especially when all the young kids came in and kept strangely asking us to watch their cows for them and we didn't understand and were annoyed", so they decide to stay for the party but they don't invite the people that were there before and they have fun and the brand new public building that is now empty except for two or three people standing and asking one another about it is now full.

Yes, I'm reading Hemingway, why do you ask?

My Birthday

A few quick things.

I am 25 now.

I watched this music video, great song, made me think about life, in a non-emo/I'm a huge fan of summer/wish I was a teenager in the 80's kind of way/I highly recommend it.

And thanks for the reminder Molly.  I'm sorry to hear about your finger.

And thanks everyone for the birthday texts, messages, facebook posts, and phone calls. You're all the best.
