Yes. You definatly have to. The first one is about Lyra who's... eleven I think who lives at Jorden College in another world and she hears Lord Asriel, her "uncle" talking about something called Dust and she wants to learn more. She gets adopted by and evil lady that she thinks she likes at first. Then she runs away. I don't have the greatest definition but if you go on Amazon.com or something they will have a pretty good description. They're GREAT books. Theres gonna be a movie soon too.

Oh, it's just some stuff I 'm having fun with: Rambling like a crazy man. The lyrics I've got are very good for crazy-talk.

talking to myself all the way to the station (tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away) pictures in my head of the final destination (tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away) all lined up (all the ones that aren't allowed to stay) (tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away) tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away tried to save a place from the cuts and the scratches tried to overcome the complications and the catches nothing ever grows and the sun doesn't shine all day tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away

Rysade, much as I hate to do so, I have to defend Ohio. It is a place that everyone "likes to see in their rear view mirror", but living in Hawaii makes me realize there are a few things I miss about it:

The fall. We don't get much of a seasonal change in Hawaii, and while I don't really miss Ohio February, I miss the change of color in the fall.

Dramatic weather. Hawaii weather is 90% sun, 9% rain, and 1% hurricanes, which we can do without. Ohio has ice storms, snow, thunderstorms, and bright blue fall days. And spring, between about the end of April and early June.

Some of the small towns in Ohio are really cool, like Scio, where my grandmother lives.

Night life. Outside of Honolulu, there is NO night life to speak of in Hawaii. Almost everything shuts down after 10; even the Dennys restaurants here ("open 24 hours") close at midnight. In Columbus at OSU, you could find something happening 24 hours a day.

I may list more things as I think of them.

"Condensing fact from the vapor of nuance." Neal Stephenson, Snow Crash

I really dislike where I live in Washington. It is so boring here, and the weather never changes....

I'm bored so I'm going to write my teacher's fav. saying:

I'm lost
I've gone to find myself
If I should get back
Before I return
Please tell me to wait.

Am I in the minority in that I love my hometown? I love
-the way it's so windy. Wind must be just about the best existing feature of the weather.
-I even like the rain
-the buses
-I live here, duh..
-the libraries
-the shops. I WANT the children's section of Unity Books, dammit...
-the sculptures
-Courtenay place
-cuba street
-civic square
-the City to Sea Bridge
-walking along parliament lawns
-the caketin

I like my hometown (Harvest, not Huntsville though Harvest is inside Hunstville) b/c
- the fall is beutifull
- my school ROCKS
- we get out of school for 1 month 4 x-mas, and 2 weeks in Oct. and March
- everyone is nice
- the millions of bookstores
- the 2 malls
- my friends
- MMS's famous chain letters
and much more. Its just that it eventually gets boring.
