everyone should have read roald dahl as kids for a complete childhood. he's got the best random-est stories!

i think i like the twits and witches best.

from the twits :

A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. you can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.

wise words.
it's even in the bible!

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

yesterday i went to the bird park and pretended to be a penguin. it was funny. time for some exerciSe!

simple starving to be safe

just when i think my brother's music taste couldnt be much more different than mine.
i find daphne loves derby.
except it's a daphnelovesderby song that sounds like it's sung by some much younger version of louis armstrong or some random jazz chillout lounge guy
hahhh

cant sleep again..

seeing my 'baby' cousins again today was nice. except 10 and 11 mean they're no longer babies, as im constantly reminded.
swimming with karyn was nice :) i'd almost forgotten how she can keep talking for ages and how she knows the most random things for a 10 yr old. like what a 30 sided polygon is called. a rosycosydododecahedron. apparently. haha and i was rather impressed until i decided to check it out for myself. reality is much less interesting. it's just a triacontagon:(
also, how she has the most amazing memory. she remembers everyone's bdaes and ages in a way i never can. man, she even knows im graduating in 2011! i dont even rmb that myself most of the time.

we remembered tiktikitembonosarembocharibariruchipipperipembo. the boy with the longest name (the best childrens book second only to the very hungry caterpillar) and are clearly still the 2 who appreciate it the most!

and they're all grown up!! im so proud tho slightly sad. just a bit.
so much in a year
