"fum fum diddle um di, la la la la la la la la..."
I'm still kinda shell shocked for tomorrow. The last track meet. Track finals. I've got a full plate of events too. *sigh* but then it'll be finished.
Plus living through school...that's bad enough. Senior year anymore...we all know it's a joke. Finals are going to be BRUTAL this semester.
Also, I'm amazingly digging all this krautrock. NEU! and Faust...it's all amazing. All I did was look up bands similar to Can on last.fm. Ahh, last.fm, so amazing.
My mom just found an old story I wrote in Kindergarten. Heehee, it's been the fodder for quite a few inside jokes between us. It's called "The Day that I Got a Leprechaun". Lol, you know what? I'm going to type this out. It's too classic not to post. :P
I sailed on a ship named Diamonds and Flowers, to Ireland. I saw a leprechaun over by the rainbow pond. He was getting a drink of rainbow water. The leprechaun was wearing a green hat, a leaf in his hat, and green clothes.
The leprechaun was singing about a rainbow. I went behind a tree. I sneaked over, and I got him! I jumped over and put a net over him. He was trying to pull the net off, but he tied it tighter. He said, "let me out!"
By the time I let him out, we were sailing on the ship, back to the United States. He wondered where we were going. I didn't tell him where we were going, so he wouldn't try to get back.
The leprechaun said there was a magic rainbow in his gold. I didn't have to say anything- he just handed it to me. I gave him some rainbow water to drink.
The leprechaun thought that it would be fun to live in the United States. He stayed with me. We got to the United States, and went to *insert childhood hometown name here*.
I told my friends the leprechaun wanted to live here. They said, "that's a good idea!"
We went camping. I always knew where he was because he had a magical light. He always stayed beside me. My dad and mom put up our tent. My brother, the leprechaun, and me watched. The leprechaun wasn't a secret, it was okay that I told them about him.
At nighttime, the leprechaun slept between me and my little brother. He brought a little suitcase and a little sleeping bag. He went to sleep really fast- because he was really tired.
I told my brother the leprechaun was going to stay with us.
My dad, mom, brother, the leprechaun, and I went to a swimming pool at the camping place. We saw a bluebird in one of the trees. We saw some flowers in the meadow.
Tomorrow would be valentines day. We were going to have a party, and lots of valentines projects. There were lots of treats- heart candy, chocolates, stickers, and valentines cards. The leprechaun made some little valentine stickers, in case there would be some little leprechauns.
I kept the leprechaun forever. He was happy. He liked going camping and looking for leaves. The End.
Was that not amazing? And mind you, the actual story is accompanied by crayon drawings of me, my family, and the leprechaun. Even in my little 5 year old mind, I had some sort of fascination with the UK and myths, I guess. Haha, I'm a better writer now, thank goodness. :P
Also, AP tests on Thursday and Friday! Eeek... *big sigh* I'll just keep plowing along day by day and hope to get there in one piece enough to worry about those days.
It's more tiring to think of the things to do then to actually do them.
I went to lunch with my dad today. Over plates of pasta, I brought up philosophy, or rather, how glad I was not to be like other people who go through life with an unthinking smile. I dunno, he seemed upset as the conversation digressed. He's more of a simple, day to day person. *sigh* I really can't relate, but I have to respect that because so many people out there are simple. They have to be in order for the simple things of this world to be done.
