Silly little poems.
I was inspired to write a haiku from this post today on my aunt's blog: DaisyLand: Haik who?
When I was in school, if we had an assignment to write a poem, I would always choose to do a haiku, because they're relatively simple, and certainly short, and easy to come up with, and they don't rhyme. It made for simple assignments.
The first topic that came to mind to write about is japan, since that's a big thing coming up and it's on my mind.
I will fly away
the land of the rising sun
Japan awaits me
Long plane rides are dull
twelve hours is long to sit down
Arrive with sore butt.
Jet lag: not my friend
Falling asleep at strange times.
the first days are tough.

Playing with fire
Fire is fun.
Swords are fun.
So I thought, what if I put them together?
Look and see...
I decided to set one of my swords on fire. The initial plan was to then attack something with it, but I realised that would be pretty dumb.
Fortunately, I had photographers on hand! So, I jsut posed and took some great pictures. I'm quite pleased!
It was great! I'm very pleased with how the pictures turned out. I think it was wicked awesome!
Hooray for flaming swords of doom!

Happy May!
It's May now. Huzzah! The weather is definitely like spring now, its very nice out. I can hear birds outside as I'm writing this. I like sunshine. I need to go surfing more. I'm going to Japan at the end of the month. That will be great.

A couple things in one
1.
I got a replacement phone in the mail today. It's charging now, but I set most of the settings the way I like. I haven't yet restored my address book or ringtones or anything, though. If anyone suspects I might not have their number, go ahead and email it to me.
As a special bonus, I will now also take requests for what people want their ringtone to be - that is, the song I'll hear when you call me. You can email me that, or post it in the comments if you like. My phone only rings for about twenty seconds, so you can tell me what portion of the song to use, too, if you like. Otherwise I'll probably use the beginning. If you want to send me the song, that's great, but I can pretty reliably get just about anything.
2.
I forgot the couple other topics I wanted to mention while I was busy writing all that about my phone. Oh well. Just pretend I'm continuing on for a while with a fascinating and important, informative thing.
