Well, I guess I should have updated you on life, but those quizzes are just so fun! I swear I spent all day on that site lol :D Anyway, what I wanted to say was that on Sunday I went apple picking with my parents upstate. Every year we go apple picking together at Wilklow Orchards and it's so fun. This year, though, it was drizzling the whole time. I actually liked it. There were hardly any people, the sky was a gorgeous shade of very pale blue to the point where it's gray, and the apples were beaded with little water drops. It looked just a painting. I loved it so much and I really regret not thinking to bring my camera.
This year we picked about 234 apples weighing exactly 100 pounds :D I think the least amount of apples we've ever gotten was in the high 80's. We also got apple cider, pumpkin bread, cream cheese pound cake, banana nut bread, and the famous apple cider doughnuts.
So with sore feet and smelling of fresh apples, we headed to the pumpkin patch. My mom always spends the whole time shopping for jams, fudge, yams, squash, gourds and mums (a type of really pretty flower). My dad and I go pumpkin picking. We got our shoes caked with mud practically to the ankle, but it was fun. I got to run back through the corn field and that was awesome. Have you ever seen the movie Signs? Like that kind of corn field, the type where the stalks reach high above your head and you can't see more than 10 feet in front of you.
Yesterday my mom made apple sauce and today we're making apple pie. I love fall. It's my favorite season. With Halloween and Thanksgiving and the red, yellow, brown and orange leaves, the crunching of the leaf-littered ground, the cool air and friendly spirit. It's just wonderful.
If rambling were a crime, I would have a life sentence. Talk later!

"Beautiful rosebud, bloom for me...oh can't you see..."
Beautiful is such a misused word. Boys use it so loosely to describe their girlfriends, teenage girls to describe the latest fashion, people to describe a painting. Oh, but it's so much more than that. Beautiful is when something is pure and good. Serene. Heartfelt. Meaningful. A rain storm, for example.
Such power surging from the sky and the Earth, forcing the trees to bow under their reign, animals finding comfort and refuge under such. Grass swaying as to give in to the trembling Earth-raging with power? Or shaking in fear? How the sky paints a beautiful landscape while the whole scene is informative of the human mind to who is truly superior on this planet. But all things seeming so natural and working in harmony- that's beauty.
A pure heart, soul. Someone who can rise from their own ashes, push themselves to be better people. Someone who, despite (or perhaps because of) what they've been through, they are an inspiration to others. That's a beautiful person.
Lyrics that are from the heart. That tell a story of hope, of life. Harmonies and chords and beats played with conviction. A message that stands strong. That's beautiful music.
So be so very careful when using the word beautiful, because it means a lot.

I Have Followers!
I have followers on my blog! Today I checked my dashboard and I have two followers on both Life Of A Cereal Killer and [enter creative blog title here] and one follower of The Coming Of Genius.
Sorry for being away for so long! I don't remember the last time I posted but it feels like a really long time to me. So, a quick update:
Well, school is fine. I don't like the Spanish teacher, which is weird for me because I'm usually the only kid who does.
Kaplan is so annoying. They give us pages and pages of homework not to mention I have to lug around their HUGE lesson book. Along with all the textbooks I'm bringing home and the notebooks for homework. *sigh* It'll all settle down after the test.
I started swimming again today. Wow. I didn't swim all last year and I am so out of shape. I was a light shade of purple when I got out of the pool. I almost collapsed, my legs were so tired. It was embarrassing. I'm sore all over.
So you see why I haven't been writing? Sorry for my rambling (again), but now that the update is done with more interesting things will come tomorrow. And I would like to welcome Fugi to my blog. He's my friend from school. That's it! See ya!

The Dark Knight
Over the summer I went to see The Dark Knight. I've been meaning to post about it, but I hadn't really thought about it. So, here goes.
Right off the back I have to say that Heath Ledger was amazing. There's rumor that he may be nominated for an Oscar and I really hope he is. The movie would be nowhere near as good without him. Christian Bale was good as Batman, but I hope you understand that it was hard to judge his acting when he was working along side Ledger. Everyone else seemed kind of bland, you know?
It was really sad what happened to Harvey Dent. Batman wanted to leave the city in his hands, he thought Harvey was a great guy. I was so sad that ___ ______ got to ___ before ______ could. Sorry, but I don't want to give anything away ;)
That was definitely a 5 star movie. Wait- do movies only go up to 4 stars? Even so, it was still a five star movie, lol :D I suggest you all see it because it's a great movie and it's easy to follow. Three Cheers for Heath Ledger!
