Rain!

It's been POURING since I woke up this morning. Like, seriously pouring. I only went out to go grocery shopping with my dad, and even for just that short CAR trip, I got quite wet. So here's a picture and a poem about rain to honour the weather.

Rain

Tap, tap, tap
You drum your fingers against my window
Splash, splash, splash
Your puddles are out-of-order swimming pools
Slop, slop, slop
My pants are soaked, cause soccer's only canceled when you turn to snow
Screech, screech, screech
More cars are out, their inhabitants too timid to face you
Drip, drip, drip
You rush through the gutters and fall down into the bucket below
Ahh, ahh, ahh
At last you cease and the wonderful sun takes your place

A rocky corner of the beach.

Little mini waterfall out of like, a stream diverter thing where the water goes under the path in a pipe.

The fence. I quite like this picture, just cause of the clarity... and yeah.

Soap or foam or something on a mini stream, the one with the diverter.

A tree with a moss patch and some other cool white patch. I like close up photos like this. They're cool.

3 tree stumps.


I took all these pictures at a park and a beach. That sounded weird. Oh well.

Me loves new camera!!

I have a new camera, well, actually this is kinda late news, it's a week old now! Happy 1 week birthday, camera!
Anyways, it's a Canon Powershot sx210 and I love it! It was 299.99 without tax, though. Expensive, but worth it! Here are some pictures I've taken with it.

This is just a book and a magazine on my desk. It's using Miniature effect. which blurs the top and bottom of the photo.

My dirty window. :)

Shoes hanging from a telephone wire or something like that, people do that a lot for some reason.

The clouds made this cool polka-dot pattern in the sky.

My stuffed wolf with HUGE eyes!! I thought the angle made him look kinda determined and proud, as if watching a battle, whose moves and attack plans he designed.

New camera ROX!

Maui Pictures

I went to Maui, Hawaii in November and these semi-wild cats lived at the resort we stayed at!

 

This cat ate dinner with us on the patio.

 

Same with this one.

 

The ADORABLE runt of the litter kitten! Can't be over 6 months...

 

SO adorable!

I ♥ cats!

We also drove up a volcano! There was no sense of distance looking at the craters, it was really weird! Sorry, no pictures of that.

Converse

My grandma is getting me customizable converse for my birthday! I can't wait! I designed them and they have heart shaped ladybugs on the sides with blue and turquoise laces and toes with navy racing stripes. The heel strip is green and I wrote Hanna on it! Can't wait to wear them!

I WON NANOWRIMO!

W00t! I won NaNoWriMo! SOOOOOOOO HAPPY!

Street Car

Today I rode an old streetcar that recently started running again. It had vintage ads posted all over. I also got a mini Oh Henry bar from one of the conductors. It brought back memories of being helped up the metal steps when I was younger, getting our card stamped, and just in general riding on the streetcar. It was an awesome feeling.
