Here's the video for the amazing petition setup by Peta. Watch, educate yourself. Rise Against's new tour for Appeal To Reason is all about Meat's Not Green. Do it for yourself, the planet, the animals, and Tim McIlrath's blue eye. I have no idea what that has to do with it, but still, watch the video. Learn. See what you can do to help our future.
Yay! We're here, in October. The air flows cool, the colours grow warm, the scents are of gourdes... It's a good time! It's also Cut Out Dissectionmonth. You can download the calender and other helpful tips to help make our schools more animal friendly here.
Today I had my first dance evaluation. I don't get to find out how well- or not well- I'm doing until my first report card though. I feel pretty good about it though, especially for not having any prior experience. Drama class was fun today. I danced a lot, laughed a lot, kicked Rebecca a lot. It was good! You have no idea how one cup of coffee first thing in the morning can make my day so much better!
Sara, I have to let you know that my wonderful mother has already pre-ordered our copy of Appeal To Reason. And there is still no way that this Oscar kid is more obsessed than Rise Against than I am. Did he fly to San Fransisco, California, USA to see them in a fabulous concert where they played a gorgeous Swing Life Away as the encore? No. I didn't think so. Alicia, if you'd like I can burn The Sufferer and The Witness next time you come over to my house. When you give me that awesome friends DVD you made me.
You all better love the movie Stardust. Well, if you've read the original book of it, you should know that the author is Neil Gaiman. His, The Graveyard Book just came out, and here is a fantastic video of poetry reading he read. It's instructions on what to do if you fall into a fairy tale. It's very good advice people. Listen closely.
Sara, I pray too for your Nonno. I know what having a Nonno in the hospital is like. And Jeanette, for your massive homework load. Not that I don't have my own.
Omgoshhhhh! Emma I have been excited for this album since... well a long time, I'd say atleast two weeks! I've listened to the new song alot and its amazing and I'm currently counting down the days till it comes out!
Also, our new friend Oscar worships Rise Against so me and him have been sharing our excitement for the new album since I realized he loved them even more then I did. Now my plan is to beg my dad to let me pre order it so that I get it the day it comes out.
Onto another topic... Uhhh... This house has got a depressing mood in it because my Nonno's in the hospital and were all really worried for him because it came out the blue, but i'm praying he's going to be okay ♥♥♥
"All because of you, I believe in angels. Not the kind with wings, no not the kind with halos. The kind that brings you home, when home becomes a strange place. I'll follow your voice, all you have to do is shout it out."
