Practically Perfect in Every Way

When I was a little kid, I always wanted to be able to have a robin just sit on my hand and sing along with me. I also tried snapping my fingers when cleaning my room, and I thought that, if I listened really hard, my reflection would have its own, separate voice.
Boy, was I in for a world of disappointment.


Thanks, Mary Poppins. Thanks a lot.

Poster Sale

Remember how I mentioned the poster sale? Well that ended today at 5pm. I got a few, and for really good prices! I got a Van Gogh ("Open Air Cafe");



two Eschers ("Drawing Hands"



and "Reptiles");



a Steez one called "Turntables;"



and, my biggest one,
by Andy Warhol himself,



"The Velvet Underground and Nico."

Many Exciting Things are Approaching

Let's list them, shall we?

1- Spiral Beach's new album
2- Islands' new album
3- The release of "Where the Wild Things Are"
4- Classes start Monday
5- The release of the film "Nine"
6- the release of the film "9" was this week
7- The poster sale at our school.

I need your prayers!

So, yesterday my Oma (that's Dutch for grandmother) suffered a massive stroke. I'm asking that you all pray for her.

Additionally, my aunt has cancer for a second time. Please, pray.

I don't care if you see this years after I post this; God is out of time and will hear your prayers anyway. Please, pray for my Oma and my aunt.

Comedic Drama

I oftentimes like to pretend my life is comically dramatic, like in the awesome show "Pushing Daisies." That was such a great show! Why did it get canceled?

Anyway, my antics, now and then, turn out similar to the show (no, I can't bring dead things back to life). I have even, recently, started hearing Jim Dale's voice in my head, narrating the key points of my life, in the show's style.


It's great.

I'm Also Excited About October 16th

And that's because that is when "Where the Wild Things Are" is set for release. I've had the book since I was a little kid, and I am so freaking pumped about the film!

September 22nd will be a big day!

Islands have a new album coming out. It will be called "Vapours."
I would post a related link, but couldn't find one clearly advertising the album.
So...
