Did you know?

(Warning, goofy face below!)

Did you know that if you rest your cheek on your knuckle for awhile, you get a bruise on your cheek?

And that if you rest both your cheeks on your hands for two hours while you read a good book, you get two bruises, one on each cheek?

The funny thing is, it doesn't hurt or anything, but its just these two brown bruises. And, I rest my face on my hands that same way all the time, and I've never bruised it before...

Afraid of Heights?

I have some cute pictures of Marcus to post, but for now I just have this video I got in an email- Wingsuit Diving or something. It's... ACK! Amazing.

Poor Snowmen

From this:To this:


It's been getting warmer out.

Funny

Snow Video!!!

I took my video camera out in the snow- and, wonder of wonders- I made a video of it! Sorry its so choppy, I did it really quickly on Windows Movie Maker. Its ok for a first try I guess. I'm excited though, because Dad showed my how to set it up, and I can actually get my videos onto the computer by myself!

It takes ages to get the video onto Blogger! Oh, well... I can't hear any sound, but then again, that is most likely just this computer.

More pictures to come

More snow pictures to come.
Later.
Sorry.

Well, since this post would be otherwise boring, here are a few things for you to enjoy!

SNOW DAY!!!

SNOW DAY! (Actually, it was mostly just little ice balls, not hail, not snow, and we should have done school but its just been a lazy day. Here are some pictures:)

The skateboard ramp is great in snow!!!

Sorry this is sideways- I forgot and turned the camera to the side while filming it...

Riddle

"This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down."


Highlight to see answer
"Time! Time!"
This riddle is from Lord of the Rings, well, actually, its from the Hobbit

Quotes

I've added a quote section to my blog at the bottom of my sidebar. I'll add some more later, but this is all I have so far. Enjoy!

New Favorite Books

I just recently finished reading some VERY good books. I have heard tons about these stories, and debated for ages if I should buy them or not. Well, I finally did, and I love them! They are "Fairy Tale Retold" stories. What the author does is take snippets out of fairy tales- little quotations, and then base a very different story around them. These books are written by a Catholic author, but I'd recommend it to everyone! However, they do deal with some fairly mature themes, but in a very good way. Just a heads up. And my little "reviews" are just to get your curiousity. They aren't very good at all- I am so horrible at reviews and make the books sound so much worse than they actually are. Here are some ideas of the stuff in them:
Fighting. Friars. Fire. Dwarves. Dragons. Princes. Priests. Knights. Nuns. Ninjas. Maidens. Miracles. Chases. Escapes. Rescues. Revenge. Torture. True love.

"Once upon a time, in New York City", two sisters, Blanche and Rose, befriend a man nicknamed Bear. Who exactly is he? And why is he being followed?












Blanche has been home alone for a couple of weeks, working her summer job and visiting hospital patients. But Bear discovers that she has disappeared. Can they find her before it's too late?












While working on a "monster" research paper for collage, Rose accidentally discovers something that she should not have. Suddenly she has an "accident", and her friends have to try to find out what happened to her- before it is too late.










Rachel is tired of being good all the time, and has decided that it is time for an adventure. Paul must try to save her and her sisters before they step the wrong way...
