You called me over when I was young and told me you wanted to see how strong I was. I was eager to impress you so I obliged. You told me to put my hand in front of my face and try to keep it there, while you tried to pull it away.

I thought I was doing so well as I strained against your arm. Until you let go. And I hit myself so hard I ended up on the ground with a bleeding nose.

You helped me up, after you’d finished laughing, and said “Let that be a lesson. Trust no one. Not even me.”

Despite what had happened, there was more love in that sentence than a thousand bed time stories.

I Wrote This For You

Recently, I stumbled upon this song, and it is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Somehow it just manages to strike a chord. It’s the story, though, that makes this song even more interesting. Deca Caszm was, according to where I found this, a little known Iranian artist who was working on a farm in Canada. He primarily did Hip-Hop, but somewhere on his Myspace profile, he had this song, “Paradise.” After giving away the mp3 file, he simply disappeared, and nobody has heard from him since. It’s sad that the world is missing such a talented artist.

It was bleeding very badly, and I ran downstairs to get a bandage. I relized the only bandages my roommate bought were Twilight bandages. I stared at them for a second, then wrapped my arm in toilet paper. MLIA

Hufflepuffs can have great qualities. They don’t know the meaning of betrayal or hate. Then again, they don’t know the meanings of most words.

A blind wizard walks into a pub. He says to the barkeep, “Want to hear a Hufflepuff joke?” The pub goes completely silent. The barkeep says, “Sir, I am a Hufflepuff. I’m used to handling a rough crowd alone. I have my wand drawn. The wizard to your left is an auror with his wand drawn. He too is a Hufflepuff. The witch on your right has her wand drawn. She is a dueling champion and also a Hufflepuff. Are you absolutely certain you want to tell that Hufflepuff joke?”

The blind wizard says, “Gods no! Not if I’m going to have to explain it three times!”
