The Reason I Don't Write Fables

For all of you who have ever asked "Mattie, why don't you write fables like Aseop?" This is why:

Peter's eyes glittered mischievously as he stared at the perfectly made pie sitting on his mother's window sill. Just then, Heidi Hillegrade began walking up the street. Peter just couldn't resist as he looked at the pie and then back at his grade school nemesis.

Peter pulled his sleeves down to cover his palms as he reached over to pick up the fresh pie. Then he ran towards the door.

"Heidi!" He called, as he closed in on the unsuspecting girl. Heidi turned just as Peter let the pie fly from his fingers. Time seemed to slow down as the apple pie flew towards Heidi. Her eyes widened and then BAM! the pie struck her face, knocking her to the ground.

As Heidi wiped the gooey crusts from her face, Peter broke into a laughing fit. Without saying a word, Heidi pushed herself up off the ground and walked past Peter's bent over form and back towards her house.

Just then, Heidi's father, pulled up in his blue and white cop car. Peter froze, mid laugh, as he watched Heidi's father walk up the sets and into his house. Peter's heart began pounding as he heard the sound of Heidi's father demanding to know what had happened to her. Without a second thought, Peter turned tail and raced away from the scene of the crime as fast as his young legs could carry him.

Heidi's father was right behind him.

Peter ran through town, and all the way up to the Canadian boarder before losing Heidi's father. Now he lives his life as a hermit in a rundown little tree-house in northern Canada.

The moral of the story is don't smash a pie in a girls face.

The Crafting Demon

Okay . . . I'm not the most crafty person in my family. Shocker, I know. But I'm not. It's actually my aunt. She is a crafting demon and can make just about anything. Her latest project involves a certain little yellow blob from a popular childrens movie. Although my aunts minions are cuter than this, the picture below is the best representation that I could find for it. If you click the picture it will take you to a link about them. Who knows, maybe you have what it takes to make one of these adorable critters!

New Years Resolutions and a bit of chaos

I'm hiding from my family right now.

Well, let me clarify. The past week and a day have been like the week (and a day!) from heck. Coming back from Christmas break where I could sleep in all day, and not have a care in the world has not been fun. And to top that all off, term ends on Friday and teachers are suddenly throwing assignments at me like nobodies business. It's ridiculous.

Because of this, I'm hiding from my family to avoid doing my chores. Although, I'm going to have to do the dishes eventually, right now, my family is sitting in front of the wii watching two of my brothers spaz out as they try to play who knows what.

On the plus side, once my hermit instincts took over, I was able to snag a few moments to finally post something. Which is good, because I've decided to post more often. Even if it's just a random story every couple of days or so, I shall post once again!

(*snort*) Yeah, we'll see how that goes.

College, college and more COLLEGE!

It's december!!! That means that first term is almost over . . . finally. I can't believe that we're almost halfway through my last year in high school. It is utterly unbelievable.

Of course, since I was little, I have longed for the day when I could walk out those double doors for the last time. But now I'm here, and it seems like it will never end. High school may be over, but college is fast approaching.

I think it is ironic, however, that the counselors have all but ignored us up to this year. Now, they seem to beckon to our every whim. They are so concerned with getting us all out of school this year, which is a good goal, but still. Why didn't they start worrying about that awhile ago?

Oh well, just a few more weeks, and a whole new semester of torture will be headed towards us. Get ready graduation day, here I come!

Photoshop in Action

Hello again. I know I haven't posted in awhile so I've decided to do it today! *Hurray*

I've been taking a digital media class wherein you learn about all sorts of programs like Photoshop, Final Cut Pro, etc. Well, one day, my partner and I decided to make an amazing picture by morphing to actors together. Looking at the picture below, can anyone guess who the two actors are?

A small update on life . . . .

I know it's late, and I shouldn't be up right now, but I haven't update this blog in a few days and since it's become a journal of sorts, I figured I should post SOMETHING, even if it was just a random post on my life.

Today, I wrote four papers! FOUR!!! It was absolutely crazy, I'm amazed that I was able to do it. It was a miracle, honestly. Man, if I'm writing four papers in one day here in high school, I'm not really sure I'm looking forward to what's coming my way with college.

My guess is that it'll look something like this:

On that note, if you have any suggestions of what you want me to start posting, please leave a comment below. I'll do my best to incorporate your ideas, (unless I REALLY don't like them.)

Anyway, I just wanted to wish everyone a happy halloween! I hope your life is filled with sugary goodness! I sure hope mine will be!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!

Boredom. It sucks.

Hey guys, it's me again. I know what you're thinking, two posts in as many days??? The world must be ending. 'Cuz I just blew your mind.

Well, I have good reason. I'm here to talk about boredom. Basically, it's what I felt for four and a half hours this morning while taking the following "beauty".

Really though, it was just a horrible experience, one which I hope to never take again. Two people I know have taken it THREE times!!! I don't know how they do it. :P However, I found this really cool picture dedicated to boredom, please enjoy.
