Out of this World

Page Turner here.
It feels like forever since my last post! Well, six days anyway and a couple things have happened. I got to go see Inside Out! It was great, by the way, and I would heartily recommend it. (As long as you have tissues ready). Also, I noticed I've let the graphics and polls slide into disrepair, so get ready for some new polls, list, and stories. Okay, so I never really think its summer until its July. So on July first, I am going to have a new backdrop and graphics and colors and stuff celebrating Page Turner's Official Start of Summer Feeling. Lastly, I saw Venus and Jupiter last night. Did you know that Venus was named after the Roman god of love, because those who saw it thought it would be a beautiful sister planet to earth, due to its similar shape and size. In reality, Venus is a volcanic planet covered in carbon dioxide that traps in all its heat. It is like one big broiler, spewing lava and poisonous gases. Not exactly the lush green counterpart those star-gazers imagined, is it? Jupiter is the biggest planet. It's really cool, because God placed it near earth, so it would catch all of those deadly comets and meteors in its huge gravitational pull. Multiple comets and meteors have already been sucked in. Jupiter is a gas planet, and has 67 natural satellites.I saw these two amazing creations from my window last night, bright and twinkling in the night sky, and it was difficult to imagine them, us, rotating about the sun in the universe, on one of the many arms of our galaxy. Sometimes we can't see God, but He's always there, even when we forget. Even if we can't see Him, He will never leave or forsake us. Even though I couldn't see Venus or Jupiter before tonight from my window, they were still there. Deu.31:8  It is the LORD who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed."

Calling All Lego Lovers!

     Hi, Page Turner here. It's been a while. I suppose I just haven't had a lot to write about. :) There is, however, something important to write about today.      If you're a fan of Lego, science fiction, or just enjoy an awesome plane model, I have some really cool news. Take a look: This elegant Lego design is called the The U.S.S. Martin . It is a Lego set featuring two large engines in the rear (see figure 2) made from blue Lego parts.      Within this carrier lies hidden guns for defense when the crew is confronted from surly space pirates or other threats.      In the front (see figure 1) lies bulbous cockpit that, in emergency situations, transforms into an eject-able escape pod. The rear of the cargo carrier unfolds to form a ramp, where the happy crew is loading for flight.        The U.S.S. Martin  is covered with sleek maroon and grey paneling and dotted with vents for heat distr...

An Ode to My iPod: Part 2

iPod, you were in your plastic baggy I stared at you as I cleaned the kitchen How broken you were! The rice could not fix you, it seemed A friend suggested I get a new one Replace you, dear iPod? I had no other choice! You've been with me through a lot, dear iPod Through my first couple basketball games Through that terrible thunderstorm I listened to you during my sad times I played you when I was happy Your music reminded me of good memories Why, wonderful iPod, why did I let you get wet? It was such an innocent thunderstorm I held you as I listened to your song But was it for the last time? I listened to you as we drove long miles Your ability to store music astounds me So many memories are in those songs! My little iPod, you played as we grouted the porch You were beside me in the late nights when I couldn't sleep You lie on my pillow, supplying me with audio as I draw Dear little iPod, your music kept me running I guess I shall have to say good-bye,...

Fall

Hi, Page Turner here! Sorry that I haven't written in a while...it's been super busy. Fall is coming! Fall--not autumn, mind you. Autumn seems to much like sunlight and warm breezes, and red trees. I'm talking about fall--rusty brown leaves that scuttle on the ground, pale blue skies, shadowy cold days, husky afternoons, bright red, yellow, and red, pumpkins, geese, fire in the fireplace, raking leaves....Fall is endless and seems to be different than Autumn. Anyway, Fall's here and I'm so happy! I want to spend all my time outside and just sit and watch Fall fall. (By the way, who came up with the word 'Fall'? Love it as I might, was that the most creative they could come up with? Did someone just look at the sky, say, 'Look how those leaves fall! What shall we call it? Oh...how about fall?) I love what this devotional said about autumn/fall. It's the time where everything dies, and produces something even prettier. Kind of like dying to our old si...
