Redwall Ballad

I like Redwall. correction, I LOVE Redwall!!! HEre's a poem about Redwall that I wrote for Media Arts.


This is a ballad for one and all
Of the brave creatures of Redwall

The gentle and peace-loving mice
Always think it over twice
Before setting careful battle plans
To drive the vermin from the land

Hedgehogs know how to brew
The best ales and cordials too.
They pick the best, to say the least,
For all to drink at Redwall’s feast.

Squirrels are nimble and fast,
Brave fighters to the last,
Their climbing ability makes them perfect spies
For scouting out the enemies.

Moles never leave the ground
Builders and tunnelers that keep Redwall sound
And always willing to lend a hand.
Their accents are hard to understand.

There are the badgers, brave and strong,
Legendary rulers of Salamandastron.
Woe to all who stand in their path
When they are under the Bloodwrath!

Beware of the perilous fightin’ hares.
Any vermin should be scared,
And cooks too, the reason why:
They’ll scoff all your grub in the blink of an eye!

There are the otters, burly and chipper,
Led by one they call the skipper.
Loyal as ever, they’ll come at the call
As fast as possible to save Redwall

The Guosim ride the rivers well,
Paddle in hand, rapier in belt.
Logalog is the one in power
Of The Guerilla Union of Shrews In Mossflower

Woe to the foes
Who threaten those
Within the sandstone walls
When roused to fight
The creatures unite
To defend cherished Redwall


Hope you liked it :P
If you've never read Redwall, well, it only took one book to get me hooked :)

Perpetual Motion, Perpetual Arguing, Perpetual Snow (I hope!)

'Kay, couple of random blurbs.
Here's a link on perpetual motion that is really very interesting.

It's not scientificy really, just funny.

I was playing Apples to Apples with 3 of my sisters and a friend. One of my sisters was TOTALLY beating the rest of us...she had like 9 green apple cards to everyone else's 2-4 cards. Then once when I was the judge, the card was scary. I got The Titanic, Hiroshima 1945, and two other cards...I quickly eliminated the other two cards, but I really had no idea what one to pick. I ended up picking Titanic cuz I was PRETTY sure that the Hiroshima card was the winning person's card and I didn't really want to pick it. In short, it was, so she didn't get the green apple card, and proceeded to tell me why Hiroshima would have been scary than the Titanic for several minutes...then I stopped listening cuz I DIDN'T CARE! It was kinda funny how she wouldn't keep playing until I would listen, but kinda annoying...

We've got a few inches of snow over here!!! :D Unfortunately we're suppose to be getting a warm front :( I hope all the snow doesn't melt!!!

Toodles!

AWANA Pancake night

Last night was Pancake Night at Awana, the kids club at our church. I made sooo many perfectly cooked, golden brown, and consistently round pancakes. I think everyone agreed that mine were the best! (they attributed it to having a good griddle) So I do have a skill!!! There were also those small sausages (called breakfast sausages I think) which I love! Ithink I had like 4 sausages and like 6 pancakes before I was full...I didn't even want to look at food anymore. Now I'll probably be having toasted leftover pancakes for lunch. 'Neways I should go work on school.
