Mirror/Reflection

Happy holidays to all you readers. I am currently in the OH GOD GET STUFF MUST GET STUFF NOW!!!! phase of Holiday StressTM, and it is DIFFICULT. Never daunted, I go on.

Have you seen the Animal Farm movie? It is the worst thing I have ever seen. It has smashed apples, which scared the &*#( out of me, as that is my hot-button phobia. I cannot deal with fruit grossness! However, it changed SNOWBALL! from being like Granny Weatherwax to being like Magrat. From the Doctor to Rory. From Yuko to Watanuki. From Minako to- OKAY OKAY WE GET IT ALREADY. And they had a sucky-ass ending, and lowered Benjamin and Mollie's participation(BASTARDS!)and GOT RID OF CLOVER AND THE CAT! BASTARDS! Oh, and they also made Benjamin less cynical. THAT'S WHY WE LIKED HIM BASTARDS.
However, OH MY GOD SO FUNNY! The constant rain! The overwrought music! The movies! Oh my god, the movies! Adjectives fail me. They just...fail me.
The puppies were adorable. It is the rare movie that cannot be saved by putting in puppies. It was not saved.

At one point in my theater class, I was informed by the teacher that a class had at one point put on a post-apocalyptic Antigone. A girl in my class was much taken by this fact. Sensei kept trying to change the subject, and SHE WHO SHALL REMAIN NAMELESS was like, 'Wait. What about the Antigone?'

THE BEST WALK EVER.
So, my mother and I were walking back to my school from a school tour, and we saw:
1. One of those mannequins with no head on a bicycle, in winter garb, and delivering presents. This was in the window of a liquor store(of course). OH GOD HE KNOWS WHERE YOU LIVE.
2. An ad for a band whose graphic was a child with the head of a snarling bear holding a limp teddy bear in one hand.
3. That ad with the giant gnome who kidnaps people. New Yorkers will know what I mean.

Let's end this farce!

So. Thanksgiving.  Let's all give thanks for the good things, like Kristin Cashore, cats, Mokona, and snowmen. My Thanksgiving was mainly reading the New Yorker while trying not to kill my cousins. Let's give thanks for fratricide! And Hamlet!
SPEAKING OF THE NEW YORKER
I have an obsession with reading their reviews of both TV shows and of Wagnerian opera. I have never watched most of the shows, nor seen Wagner performed, but I love reading their reviews.

Why? Why do I keep having weird dreams about Kuro-pippi? This time, there was Po from Graceling(god I love that series), who looked inexplicably like Masayoshi from Tsubasa in that dream. Then, there was Fai, and a river, and more about Po. That is all I can remember, except that there was a barbarian-type guy in black leather who had long hair beating his chest and howling at the sky. Maybe I should stop reading before bed...but then I wouldn't have my weird dreams about colorful demon babies and Sakura-chan dressed like a cowgirl, which would be sad.

YEH-HEH-HESSSSS!

HALLOWEEN HALLOWEEN HALLOWEEN HALLOWEEN IT'S HALLOWEEN YAAAAAAY!
Happy Halloween. Go bounce some kitties.

The Skull And The Octopus

JUST BECAUSE...
Books I Love
1.On The Day I Died,Candice Fleming(Read. This. Book.)
2. Midnighters, Scott Westerfield(Amazingly sci-fi-y while still being fantasy enough for me)
3.Beauty Queens, Libba Bray.(So damn funny)
4.The Soldiers Of Halla, D.J. MacHale(He brought my favorite character back to life, and she gets a huge role in this book.
I need to stop this list now, to explain about Kasha. She was a cat...a alien panther with ninja skills. Who can resist the alien panthers with ninja skills? If you aren't obsessed with black cats, ninjas, and sci-fi like me, perhaps you. She was my absolute favorite character in Pendragon. Then, she died in a rockfall. Skip forward a few months. I have finished the Warriors series 3(I hate that series, for reasons detailed here.). Hollyleaf, another awesome black cat with ninja skills, has died. In a rockfall. Skip forward another few months. I am feeling very depressed, due to something I cannot remember. Then, I realize: There is a literary conspiracy against awesome black cats. I was outraged, snapped out of my depression, and began making posters.
I'm sorry if I made you question my sanity.

In Memoriam

WARNING:THIS HAZ SPOILERZ ABOUT WARRIORS!
Hollyleaf shouldn't have died.
I read The Last Hope, and now I am angry.
For non-Warriors geeks, here's a brief Hollyleaf synopsis.
She was made to believe that she had powers, even though she didn't.
She discovered that her existence was against everything she believed in.
She had everything she loved taken away from her.
Then, she died.
She was ridiculously awesome, also.
HELLO?! AM I THE ONLY ONE ANGRY ABOUT THIS? THIS JUST ISN'T RIGHT! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED TO JOB, ONLY HE WASN'T AWESOME! AND SHE WAS A GOOD PERSON, TOO! SHE GAVE HER LIFE FOR THE VERY PEOPLE WHO HAD REJECTED HER!
Any comments that are funeral speeches will be appreciated.
