This reminds me so much of a song I wrote when I was 11. ;_;

I love that you flipped it; it gives the image such a dreamlike, surreal quality.

And thank you very much. (:

I set music to a poem at the end of Brian Jacques's Taggerung:

Old places I traveled long seasons ago
Kind faces of friends I have seen
What's round the riverbend? dear, I don't know
'Tis a land where my heart's never been
Will I sit in the shade of tall willows above
If I gaze in the stream may I see
There standing beside the one that I love
Or all sad and alone must I be?
The tears I have shed here are mingled and gone
Through waters which flow without end
Yet I must drift, ever seeking that one
Waiting there round some far riverbend

That's quite beautiful. It has a nice pace and the rhyming scheme is good. Very well done, especially for an eleven-year-old.

I know, that's why it makes me dizzy turning my head upside down

Haha. You could always just flip it over in MS paint or something.

And hey, since you like taking pictures of yourself so much, if you ever want to model for me say the word and we'll get a nice weekend to goof off.

yayyy! next sunday then? oh, and I went to this haunted house called Psychosis and practically crapped my pants. At the gift shop, there was a t-shirt that said "Jesus was a zombie." and I thought of you instantly. XD

Ahh, I would have thought about *kris-wilson instead, but that's alright. It's nice to know that you're thinking of me.

And Sunday? That should be alright, I think. I'll just have to do all of my homework on Saturday so I actually have the time to do some awesomesauce photography with you. Should we experiment with different outfits, or just put you in a really awesome one and try to find a bunch of cool places to shoot you? xD; (Lol, shoot you.)
