Purple

This is my sadly belated response to Meg's request to have me begin posting again. I am here to contemplate the color purple. Yes, it's true. You may be thinking 1) this guy is a complete nut, why is he not discussing the joys of butterscotch ice cream, I mean really! 2) um, what the holy deep-fried banana-and-coconut fritters does this have to do with what we think, the blog name, and you being the Muffin Man 3) Be one with the force. Only then can you truly understand the depth of your path and your destiny, oh and by the way, if you pass a Starbucks, I would really love a medium Brazilian iced mocha with cream 4) Yes, 42 is the answer to life, the universe, and everything, how did they guess OR 5) Yep, he's my best friend, I have to deal with his nerdy quirky attitude all the time, I get used to it.... Anyway, now I'm here to discuss purple. I feel purple is an under appreciated color. It is beautiful. It can be bright, subdued, vibrant, elegant, rich, bold, quiet, snappy, drab, exquisite, or even magnificent. Purple is also a good way to describe Uncle Vernon's face on many occasions, for those of you who have read the Harry Potter books. Now purple does have a rival, violet. Violet took the name of the flower, the assumption of beautiful, and a much cooler name. So I'm sticking up for the underdog, purple. SO WHO'S WITH ME????

Surprising Myself

Very rarely do I surprise myself. I am a well thought out person. Even when I make mistakes (yes, contrary to the popular belief, I am not perfect and I do make mistakes) I know I am about to mess up. But now I will surprise myself greatly by making this PSA (Public Service Announcement) : I am back online and I am here to tell you the meaning of life! Also, another surprise, Meg, I messed up big time, I let you think I had forgotten you. I am sorry. To be continued..... (maybe...............)

My Autobiography

   My auto biography is a monumental achievement and some of you may find it accurate, some may see it as totally fictitious, others still may see it as hilarious, and me, well I'm me so........ I guess you'll just have to find out... :) I was born in a fantastic place, that is located somewhere in the state of Oregon. I moved once while there at the age of 1. I lived there for 5 years and went to preschool at a truly magical, heartwarming, and child-friendly place called Unity School, which I LOVED!!! 

   When I was 5 I moved to the great, the fantastic, the amazing Seattle, Washington (a.k.a. The Emerald City) and though I left many treasures and friends behind (some of the friends were the treasures *hem* cough* Maisie Titterington, who owns a place in my heart forever* cough* gag*fall down on my rear end painfully and have a dangerous choking fit* cough *choke*) and fell instantly in love with this magical city! I made some great friends,i.e. the theatrical, trustworthy, and my inseparable best friend Meg Shepherd, the memorable and vivacious Sophie Chace, the eternally endearing and lovable Anya Jones, the fun, energetic, creative, astounding, and musical Collin Province, the witty, tenacious, playful, and amazing Page Byers, and my forever dear, sweet, and much cherished first grade teacher Ms. Crawford all of whom touched my life in an unforgettably special way, had some great teachers , i.e. 1st Grade-Ms. Crawford, 2nd Grade-Ms. Backman, 3rd Grade-Ms. Maddeford, 4th Grade- Ms. Engel, and for 5th grade Mrs. Gordon-Smith, and moved 3 more times. 

   I went to a school I will remember forever called Whittier Elementary School. I spent five years there and felt every emotion conceivable there, pain, joy, sadness, anger, hilarity, confusion, shock, embarrassment, excitement, spontaneity, fear, confidence, courage, determination, love, friendship, and a burning need to use the restroom, I was in the spectrum, advanced curriculum level class and enjoyed (most of) my classes and (some of) my teachers very much! 

   I grew great passions for literature and the theatre and have read countless books and have been in a colossal number of theatre productions! Because I read such a vast, incessant amount of books I subsequently have a very extensive vocabulary and because I've been in so many plays I'm very dramatic.

   At the age of 11 I move to Newton, Massachusetts. I ate carrot cake with cream cheese frosting for my 12 birthday. I enjoy playing Backgammon with my grandmother and my favorite color is aquamarine. I love adjectives, fleece blankets, Greek food (baklava), dancing, music by ABBA, my favorite song is Good Vibrations, my favorite play ever was my fifth grade school play, my two favorite series are The Bartimaeus Trilogy by Jonathon Stroud and The Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling, I have an imagination that's massive, I want to be an author someday, my favorite genre is fantasy/fiction/adventure, my favorite line ever in a book is said by Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore in Book 1 of the Harry Potter series and I quote: "Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words. And here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!"and I love speaking French. So au revoir!
