Funny Picture of the Day!

For anyone who doesn't get it, the guy who plays Sora is Haley Joel Osment.  He's the kid from "The Sixth Sense" by M.Night Shyamalan.

Book of the week!

This book is so good I'm reading it again.  It's Tracy Barrett's single person perspective on the life of Historical figure Anna Comnena, because of course we don't know every detail about her life during that time, it's considered a novel.  But it still captures the imagination of the reader as you follow Anna's life, how she was to become the heir to the throne and how it was all suddenly taken away.  Of course it is not entirely accurate, but it's still a book of great meaning and adventure.  Dive into the life of the Byzantine Royal Princess Anna Comnena and see what this story has in store.

Thoughts...

A few years ago I had the biggest dream of becoming a singer when I got older.  But not to long ago I came to realize that millions of other people had the exact same dream I did and all for different reasons except one, we all want to leave a mark on the world.  To make an impact, to be remembered;  but we don't need fame, money, and millions of fans to do that.  People do it all the time, even if it's not in our lives it's leaving an impact on someone else.  Missionaries do it everyday, millions of them risking their lives in the process; and some people are doing it for a neighbor or friend or someone they don't even know.  We don't all need a microphone and a big stage to be heard, or a big crowd cheering our name or posters all over some one's wall to be seen.  Even if it's the smallest thing, God always sees and that is the best way to be seen, heard, and appreciated.

My Delicious Mini Pies!

I made these from some pumpkin pie mix and pie crust we had, I was in a baking mood so I just made mini pies since it was no special occasion and we weren't going to be sharing with tons of other people.  But it definitely made up for the failed pumpkin pie I made on Thanksgiving...that was horrible...anyway, I just used the regular pie crust mix, but put them in a cupcake pan.  Of course the directions on how long to bake is never accurate, so it could take a lot longer than eight minutes, it just all depends on the pie filling.  Let them cool and add a dab of cool whip on each of them and enjoy a little piece of thanksgiving at anytime of the year!

Book of the week!

This book opens your eyes to how to use the gift of imagination.  Read about Little Sarah Crewe as she learns that using make believe can put a smile on anyone's face even in the worst of times; and that showing kindness toward others makes your life, as well as others, much better.  This book would be the perfect thing to bring you and your daughter or daughters together and enjoy some quality time, or to have some quiet reading by yourself.

NEWS!

Starting Sunday I will be scheduling the Funny Pics and Book of the Week.  So, now you won't be waiting for the next one to come out even if I don't have a story/poem, or what ever else I post.  And I'm sorry for making you wait! *bows multiple times*

As of Late

I'm sorry I haven't published anything as of late. I've been busy, very busy, but I will be scheduling funny pictures, and books of the week so that I have at least something new for you all to read! Please be patient while I get these things out!

Funny Picture of the Day!

Hahahahaha!!

Book of the week!

A great book of Anne Frank and her journey from being a normal thirteen year old girl to going into hiding from the Nazi take over in Amsterdam.  Anne dreamed of becoming an author, but this book right here is a imagination capturing story already!  I'm sure a  lot of you have read this in school but maybe you could read it again, because it's just that good!  This book opened up the eyes of millions of people to the hardships people went through in different countries during World War II.  I hope that you will read or reread this book because you fill appreciate even the littlest thing much more after; and I'm sure that is the kind of print Anne Frank would have wanted to leave behind in this world of suffering.

Yuki's thoughts "Doesn't he know it's not polite to point?"

Kyo's thoughts "Die die die!!"

What Kyo is actually saying "Suck dirt and die Yuki!"

Not much difference is there? lol

Sorry this one is late.  Didn't have time set aside for this, but I will be setting a certain time to set these out every day along with the book of the week. ^.^

Book of the week!

Here is the book of the week!  I know it's a little late, I kind of lost track of the date he he.  I love the old time homey feel I get when I read this book.  This is a book that anyone would love to read as you laugh and cry along with Margret, Joe, Beth, and Amy in their heart swelling family ties and adventures in their very own little theatre in the attic.

One of Fullmetal Alchemist's best moments. ^.^

Funny Picture of the Day!

*sigh* so true...^.^

"I'm Sorry"

Just one more moment, that’s all I needed, but time wouldn’t give in.  I begged and pleaded for one more moment, but when I got there it was too late.  The seconds it took to burst through the doors  it happened, the promise was sealed and it was my fault for letting go.

Looks of horror all facing me as my tears fell silently like rain in a lonely wood.  but my eyes only settled on one and one alone. As he slowly pulled her into his arms, never looking away from me; my heart felt like it had been pierced with an arrow and broken like glass.  that one moment I met her eyes, filled with fear and wonder, mine with tears and sorrow.

I whispered “I’m sorry” to that one special, loving person, and took my leave.  Hand shaking, tears falling, as I wandered aimlessly I found myself in out special spot; where memories were playing like a film right before my eyes.  i fell to my knees weeping.  Weeping as I had never wept before.

I knew what he was doing, that whole time he was with her.  But I never said anything because of the happiness felt there.  I caught him just a few days before now; but I could not break her heart, not when I was finally seeing her smile again.

Suddenly, the memory of two little girls giggling and playing together replayed in my head.

“Promise we will always look out for each other?”

“Promise.” I said shaking pinkies.

“I’m sorry sister...I’m so sorry for letting you fall into his trap, and now...I can never have you back...”

The Cursed Stomach Virus

Yes, it has come, a little late, but it has come...the stomach virus! Dun Duun DUUN!  First the babies, then Dad, and now the youngest little sister. *sigh* When will this nightmare end?! If you're wondering why I'm so upset about this it's because this virus always seems to come around the same time every year, even if it's to just one person, it always finds it's way into our home...I'm telling you, it's eeviilll...Evil I say!!

"When You Let the Devil Win" (rough draft)

  In the midnight hour you lay bed
Waiting for the moment to turn red
Suddenly you see him there
knowing that you feel despair
You take his hand and when
You look down, you see the blood red
Wedding gown.

 You sit there like a doll of cloth
As he twirls you round and round.
Every step burns your feet,
Every touch pierces skin and makes
You bleed.

 Round and round the room will spin
Each wall bearing every sin.
You cry as your make up runs,
Making black streaks on once pail skin.
Finally he turns to you and says,
"This is what happens when you let the devil win."

 I was listening to Flyleaf when I wrote this and this poem popped in my head,  (I get into different moods in writing whether I feel like that emotion or not, which will explain later writings that could be sad, angry, or dark like this one in some way).

Movie!

Well, yesterday my Fullmetal Alchemist Conqueror of Shamballa movie came in, I had been waiting since last week.  When I saw the package on my bed I flipped out, I opened it and suddenly got the feeling to run around the house screaming "It's here! It's here! Woo hoo!", but I held back for the sake of the rest of my family's ears.  I got my chance to watch it that night, and I have to say that the ending...haha you thought I was going to tell you.  Anyway, I would recommend anyone to watch it if you are into anime (except I wouldn't recommend it for little kids because there is a little blood and gore), but you have to watch the first two seasons! (other wise you won't know what's going on), And I wouldn't start with the mangas, mainly because the seasons I am talking about don't follow the comics.  Now I have yet to wait for my next manga to get here as soon as it comes out on the 18th...*sigh*

Book of the week!

I just finished a book called "Nightmare Academy" by Frank Peretti. This is the second book the the Veritas series, the first one being "Hang Man's Curse".  I would highly recommend  this book, though it's aimed more toward teens, I'm sure adults have enjoyed this book just as much.  

As you can tell, I like anime...heh heh

Hello All!

Greetings!

 I'm sure you're wondering why this blog is called The Free Road.  Well, Free Road had been a name I came up with awhile ago while trying to think of a band name (that band never happened, it was one of my "sudden obsessions") and I was thinking of something that had the word "free" in it.  I wanted it to be welcoming, refreshing, and the word "freeway" kept popping into my head; but I didn't want that as a name so instead of "way" I thought of other words that have to do with going somewhere, traveling, being able to move forward, and I thought of "road".  I've made blogs before and none of them were that good, so I'm determined to get this one right and make it interesting for you readers (if there are any) and make people "want" to read my blog.  I'm set on doing something great in my life, even if God is the only one to know about it, and maybe this will help me start.
