10 Things Your Dog Would Tell You..

1. My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years. Any separation from you will be painful: remember that before you get me.
2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.
3. Place your trust in me- it is crucial to my well being.
4. Do not be angry at me for long, and do not lock me up as punishment.
5. You have your work, your entertainment,and your friends. I only have you.
6. Talk to me sometimes. Even if I don’t understands your words, I understand your voice when it is speaking to me.
7. Be aware that how ever you treat me, I will never forget.
8. Remember before you hit me that I have teeth that could easily hurt you, but I choose not to bite you because I love you.
9. Before you scold me for being uncooperative,obstinate,or lazy, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I might not be getting the right food, or I have been out too long, or my heart is getting to old and weak.
10. Take care of me when I get old; you too will grow old. Go with me on difficult journeys. Never say: “I cannot bear to watch” or “Let it happen in my absence.” Everything is easier for me if you are there, even my death. ♥…!!

Animorphs was always a war story. Wars don’t end happily. Not ever. Often relationships that were central during war, dissolve during peace. Some people who were brave and fearless in war are unable to handle peace, feel disconnected and confused. Other times people in war make the move to peace very easily.

Always people die in wars. And always people are left shattered by the loss of loved ones.

That’s what happens, so that’s what I wrote.

Jake and Cassie were in love during the war, and end up going their seperate ways afterward. Jake, who was so brave and capable during the war is adrift during the peace. Marco and Ax, on the other hand, move easily past the war and even manage to use their experience to good effect. Rachel dies, and Tobias will never get over it. That doesn’t by any means cover everything that happens in a war, but it’s a start.

Here’s what doesn’t happen in war: there are no wondrous, climactic battles that leave the good guys standing tall and the bad guys lying in the dirt. Life isn’t a World Wrestling Federation Smackdown. Even the people who win a war, who survive and come out the other side with the conviction that they have done something brave and necessary, don’t do a lot of celebrating. There’s very little chanting of ‘we’re number one’ among people who’ve personally experienced war.

I’m just a writer, and my main goal was always to entertain. But I’ve never let Animorphs turn into just another painless video game version of war, and I wasn’t going to do it at the end. I’ve spent 60 books telling a strange, fanciful war story, sometimes very seriously, sometimes more tongue-in-cheek. I’ve written a lot of action and a lot of humor and a lot of sheer nonsense. But I have also, again and again, challenged readers to think about what they were reading. To think about the right and wrong, not just the who-beat-who. And to tell you the truth I’m a little shocked that so many readers seemed to believe I’d wrap it all up with a lot of high-fiving and backslapping. Wars very often end, sad to say, just as ours did: with a nearly seamless transition to another war.

Anonymous: I’m never good enough. I’m not pretty enough. I’m not very good at music. I’m not that great at art. My science grade is sub-par. Everything I like is stupid. I’m never smart enough, always too lazy. I’m not analytical enough, I’m not creative enough. I’m never good enough, and I can never try.

Literary Crush: Ron Weasley - Teen Lit Rocks

truegryffindorforever:

This is for the Ron Weasley fans and Romione shippers. Quotes:

I know, it’s an odd choice. I mean, we all know he’s not Harry. He’s no Chosen One/Defense Against the Dark Arts wunderkind/Boy Who Lived. He’s got terrible clothes, a short temper, and flaming red hair (not that gingers aren’t hot!). But… we can’t help but adore him. And we’ll never, ever understand why a percentage of Potterheads don’t think he’s worthy of Hermione. They were clearly meant to be together from the moment she told him he had a spot of dirt on his nose. Yes, he’s the first to poke fun at her, but it’s only to cover his insecurity, because deep down, Ron is a vulnerable soul who’s courageous and loving and definitely not your ordinary old sidekick.

Who Does He Love? He may have snogged fellow Gryffindor Lavender Brown, but there’s only one girl for Ron, his intellectually intimidating, kindhearted, fiercely stubborn best female friend, Hermione Granger.

Why Him? Read the “Silver Doe” and “Malfoy Manor” chapters of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” and it will be ridiculously obvious why Ron is amazing. If those two chapters aren’t enough, how about we start at the beginning: because he immediately befriended Harry — and not for his fame; because he sacrificed himself on the chess board; coughed up slugs; told off Snape; noticed Hermione when even Harry didn’t; was too proud to accept hand outs; was too naive to understand that all of those rows were really a sign of how much Hermione actually felt for him. And yes, he left, but he came BACK and faced his darkest fears; acted courageously and offered himself up to Bellatrix in Hermione’s stead. Because he shouted her name over and over and over again. Because his disarmed Bellatrix and carried Hermione to safety. Because he thought about the elves and punched Draco in the face. “Bloody hell,” because he’s Ron friggin’ Weasley!

Swoon-Worthy Quotes:

“All’s fair in love and war,” Ron said brightly, “and this is a little bit of both.”

“You can have me, keep me!”

“We don’t want anymore Dobbies, do we? We can’t order them to die for us-”

————

Hermione on Ron: “He was amazing!” said Hermione. “Amazing!”

————

“Hermione screamed again from overhead, and they could hear Bellatrix screaming too, but her words were inaudible, for Ron shouted again, ‘HERMIONE! HERMIONE!’”

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

primarie:

Have a history teacher explain this if they can.

Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.

 

Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.

Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Both wives lost a child while living in the White House.

Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head.

Now it gets really weird.

Lincoln’s secretary was named Kennedy.
Kennedy’s Secretary was named Lincoln.

Both were assassinated by Southerners.
Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson.

Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.

John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839.
Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.

Both assassins were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.

Now hang on to your seat.

Lincoln was shot at the theater named “Ford.”
Kennedy was shot in a car called “Lincoln” made by “Ford.”

Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.

And here’s the “kicker”:

A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland.
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.

 

AND……………….:

Lincoln was shot in a theater and the assassin ran to a warehouse…
Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and the assassin ran to a theater…

 
I saw this had to share just in case anyone did not know.

I WILL NEVER CEASE TO REBLOG THIS
