Penpal

For Christmas my older brother Devin got me 3 books, all relating to scary stuff. He's a horror fan, who constantly watches millions of scary movies, which I can't bear to look a minute at. But he's also the one that told me to read Saya in Underworld, a blog that has my undivided attention because it has these incredibly awesome translated Japanese scary stories. I've read them all.

Anyways, I read the first book. It's called Penpal by Dathan Auerbach. Ohmygosh. It's the most freakiest thing I've ever read. Ever. While I was reading it, I just felt like screaming the whole time. But it was also supremely entertaining. I'm not going to even say mildly what it's about, because I feel like it would be a spoiler for the first chapter. Ohmygosh. I stayed up until 6 one night reading it, not able to go to sleep for fear there was someone in the house. I couldn't stop reading it either. It's been about 3 days since I've finished it, and I feel like I've been scarred for life.

Just read it, and you'll know what I'm talking about.

Sigh

SONNET 130

My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red than her lips' red;
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damask'd, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound;
I grant I never saw a goddess go;
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:
   And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare
   As any she belied with false compare.

-Shakespeare

Life is but a Dream

Life is but a Dream

A boat, beneath a sunny sky
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July

Children three that

nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Pleased a simple tale to hear

Long has paled that sunny sky;
Echoes fade and memories die;
Autumn frosts have slain July.

Still she haunts me, phantomwise,
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.

Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.

In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die;

Ever drifting down the stream
Lingering in the golden gleam
Life, what is it but a dream?

 

-Lewis Carroll

Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence-FYI

Like I promised.

lyrics

Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence

Oh, if I think of Christmas, it just has to be this song. I've been listening to this for years.

There are so many versions of this song....it's difficult picking just one.
Utada Hikaru also did a pop version of it with lyrics, I'll post it next, but here's a link: FYI
