selected poetry & year wrap

[vehementoolbox]

I went to the library yesterday and borrowed a couple of books.. my favourite would be Phantasmagoria, a poem by Lewis Carrol. Here are a few "stanzas" (I've always disliked that word) that amuse me:
[oh the poem is basically about some guy who comes home and there's a ghost in his house]

My sympathies were warming fast
Towards the little fellow.

OHh well it's pretty good fun. You know, with all the kangaroos just jumping around in the house and stuff.

I used to really believe that when I was 5, I was kind of bummed when I found out it wasen't true.

Well if you live on farms and stuff you regularly see kangaroos. When I was littler and lived on my farm we had kangaroos in the backyard all the time early in the morning. Though it's kinda scary if you're driving along some road and then you see a kangaroo in front of you. My mum accidentally hit one when we were driving to Ballarat a while ago. It was alarming and sad. : (

better than hitting a bear.
lol
or some other large animal.
i always like the conception that we ride kangaroos. that one just cracks me up. how would you stay on? lol. anyway. counters from 'dramatic charades keep randomly falling off my person. WHERE FROM? IM SO CONFUSED!

hahah dramatic charades was a laugh.
imagine hopping into their pouch thing. Isn't it really slimy and gross in there? ewww
yikes. i would like to have a bear as a pet. Or one of those weirdo things from Jimmy Kimmel.

[trebizond]

it was a bit of a fundy. haha, that would odd. it isnt slimy. but baby kangaroos are naked. i like kangaroos, they can do all this cool shit. for example,
-have two babies in their pouch at onec
-if the conditions arent good they can halt their pregnacy until the grass is green again.
-apaz they dont even know when they are in labour because they have jellybean babies that craml through theor fur and attach themselves to a nipple in the pouch
yeah, i think the fur bit is prtty cool. can you imagine cramling through that? yum. lol.
plus they jump and have big tails and eyes.

[vehementoolbox]

I believe the halted conditions are referred to as "SUSPENDED ANIMATION"
it's true, Kangaroos are MEGA!!!!!!

[whoopdeedooofoo]

haha i love in Australia how they have those kangaroo signs as if to say, watch out for kangaroos, just once i'd like to see a whole group of them dart across the street.

in new zealand we have signs like that but only they have cows on them. wtf, the cows can't escape, its not like theyre just roaming around the place, not like those crafty sheep. i was at the bus depot one time and i saw a sheep, its nowhere near a farm.

sigh. i heart nz.

[trebizond]

ph and those things from jimmy kimmel are grrrreat! that was soo weird that episode thing...wtf! and bears are cute. i am a sun bear! I AM A SUN BEAR!
more nature facts anyone?
apaz bears are only angry and violent because they eat berries all the time and have cavities therefore constant tooth ache. therfore i would be grumpy too. hehe. bears are fun. like the polar bear on the add that plays with its toes.
more facts? ok! the bottom of polar bears feet are all lumpy like momy-ped massaging sandals so they dont slip on tyhe ice! hehehehehehehehhehe
ARGH. im going to bed.

[whoopdeedooofoo]

Its pretty much the best country in the world. I don't even live there and I say that. So it must be true.
