It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of ANNABELLE LEE;--
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
She was a child and I was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love--
I and my Annabelle Lee--
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.
And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud by night
Chilling my Annabelle Lee;
So that her high-born kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.
The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
Went envying her and me:--
Yes! that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of a cloud, chilling
And killing my Annabelle Lee.
But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we--
Of many far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in Heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabelle Lee:--
For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabelle Lee;
And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabelle Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride,
In her sepulchre there by the sea--
In her tomb by the side of the sea.
How purdy. I have to memorize the first 26 lines by next friday. Yay. And I have to draw a picture. Boo. So far I've memorized .. uh ..
Nothing. My mind's blank. *peek* Oh I know.
It was many and many a year ago
In a kingdom by the see
That lived a maiden, whom you may know
by the name of Annabelle Lee;
And this maiden she lived
With no other thought
than to love and be loved by me.
She was a child and I was a child
In this kingdom by the sea
And...... and... Damnit. I can't remember.
Sucky. 9 frickin' lines.
I finally shaved my legs. I figured that I had to shave 'em. Once they start to resemble Chewbacca's the hair must go. So it's gone. Yay.
*sigh* Tanja's sprung up a surprise article on me. So now I've got to do yet another article because I'm the "writer" of the group. Twas my job to rewrite all the articles and make up five of my own on top of that. How come I get the most work, huh? Why do people expect so much outta me?
Jesus, I can only write so much! Why do you think I haven't added any real entries in a couple of days? I'm tired of writing. Tired. I quit. No more writing for the weekend. NONE. You'll get no entry outta me! Suffer!
Today was Career Day at school. I had a neurosurgeon with long dreads (spelling?) to his buttocks in my Biology class and a CEO of some business thingy in my English class.
At lunch, I had to interview people at booths to find out what they were doin' and what program they were representing. I wasn't interested in any of 'em. None of them have anything to do in music.
I saw Drew performing with the mini-jazz band during my interviews. Well, first I heard him and then saw him. That kid can play! Boy, that kid looks great and black. And blue. And green. Ah, hell. He looks great in almost everything.
I've noticed a pattern in my choice of guys. They're all exceptional at what they do. For instance, Victor. He was a great trumpet player. Prob'ly, at the time, one of the best in band. Anthony was a piano prodigy. I liked him, though we basically couldn't talk about anything 'cause he's bland as hell. Lathan .. well he's a great actor, and he's funny and cute and sweet. Hmm. And then there's Drew. Drew's cute, spectacular on the sax, but he's also an ass. Doesn't that say something?
Well I must get to sleep.
