The giving tree

As a child, the giving tree was one of my favorite books, it seemed so lovely and sweet, that this tree was willing to literally give herself to the little boy. I loved Shel Silverstein in general, especially his poetry books.
Looking back on it though, it seems the sweetness was incredibly one sided.
Of course I knew this at the time, it just wasn't very apparent, I was sort of apathetic towards the boy and just focused on the selflessness of the tree.
The book as I remember it seems like a metaphor for either unhealthy romantic relationships or motherhood, though I'm not sure Mr. Silverstein wrote the book with those intention.
As for the former, you could switch the tree and the boy with a couple (with a few adjustments obviously) and it would be a story about emotional abuse and manipulation.
And for the latter, It does make sense. So many mothers give and give and give with no thanks and no appreciation. But of course while these mothers love their children, doing a job (which is arguably what motherhood is) without respect is tiring and depressing, so why is the tree always happy?
You might say "She's happy because the little boy is happy."
Even the most selfless person in the world needs love sometimes.
And the boy isn't always with her, he goes for years without speaking to her, who knows what kind of emotions she went through when the person that meant the most to her wouldn't talk to her for years?
Or maybe it's a metaphor for adulthood. You're easily satisfied as a child, but as you get older, you want more and more, and you're willing to take from your friends and your family.
In closing, I look at the book as a lesson, don't give everything you have to someone who doesn't deserve it, or else you'll end up a stump with a geriatric man's ass in your face. Unless you're into that sort of thing, in which case, this just got awkward.


P.S. Why did the little boy have to mutilate his friend to make a house? Why didn't he just cut down another tree?

Friday the 13th REVIEW!

I like the Idea of teens and gore, It's rather amusing. And don't get me wrong, I love horror, It's awesome, And despite the fact that I saw this movie 9 days ago, and I spent pretty much the whole movie texting my cousin, I'm going to review this movie! Okay, so the movie starts out with a girl, running through the woods or something, clearly trying to escape, and there's this crazy old lady following her going "You're the last one" or something like that.

And that's when the texting began.

I will admit that I walked into the theater a little bit scared, but once the movie started, I realized that this isn't going to be any different than any other modern day remake, because of two words: Blue wash.

Yes that's right folks! A pathetic blue-green tint to the whole movie! The whole entire thing! (Except for the bonckickawowwow scenes of course, those were orange tinted.)

But anyway, After that godawful scene was over, they get to the first, section type thing of the movie. And, I kid you not, EVERY SINGLE TIME Jason showed up on screen, there was this annoying
jolting sound effect. EVERY SINGLE TIME. The beginning has like 4 kids or something, and they all drop like flies, right there, just like that, and that was pretty damn annoying. But on a serious note, the real problem I have with this movie is the ending. The VERY Predictable ending. I think it's pretty much scientifically impossible to come back to life after you have been:


choked with a chain
held by the ceiling
stabbed in the chest
had your head ground up in a wood chipper
and drowned.

Right when the movie ended, I said to myself, "Oh yeah, that's real original." (Sarcasm, dumbass.) But really, I give this movie 1 and a half stars, My god, just, don't see this movie if you are looking for an original horror movie that will make you think, speculate, and question things, if you're going to see it, just see it for laughs, and not for thinking.

(Oh and did I forget to mention the token characters?)

What the hell?!

Happy Birthday to me!





It's been really long since I posted and I thought I'd post while it's still my birthday. I got a new pet ferret, she's so cute and has a great personality. I also want to post pictures of my pet beta fish Toshi.
She's the best birthday present I've gotten.
I just generally had a good day except for one thing that happened but It might be solved tomorrow. I just need suggestions for the ferret's name, so if you have any, they would be very much appreciated. I'll see you all later, bye.

Vh1 special -- continued

While I was watching that special,
I was reminded of Hugh Grant and his night with Divine Brown.
I just keep wondering about what these English guys have in their pants, where these hookers keep coming back to them.
Its not that I hate Hugh Grant, its just that I find him much too... disturbingly dashing. People much overestimate how good looking he is.

Vh1 special

I am watching a VH1 special about embarrasing moments for celebrities. They were talking about Ashlee Simpson and her McDonalds fiasco. I swear, I feel sorry for her. Her reputation is ruined. She is always being picked on, always being compared to Jessica Simpson, I really truly feel sorry for her.

Bernie Mac died

I can't believe it. :O I was never a fan of his, but I am just as shocked as a fan would be. Never thought it would happen so soon. He died this morning.

Were heeeeeeeeeeeeere!

Were at a Marriot Hotel. We were sent here by my aunt Mitzie, (Mitsie?) and it is really nice. I would give you a picture blogger, but the batteries on my Flip are down. I get all my pictures from my Flip video camera. God I hate the Jonas brothers. They are so annoying. I hate kiddy music. The music from those condescending (c?) kids shows look and sound like Death Metal compared to the Jonas Brothers. I hate the term OMG. I also hate; OMFG, LOL, TTLY, NOOB, CHACH, DUNNO, PWNED, WTF (sometimes you have to use it though), etc. I am a regular visitor to "this brain is dead" by Rondo. What is your real name, Rondo? My name really is Brynn. If you are a sex offender, everything comes through my dads law office, so you better watch out! Snip Snip!

Scott Schipperke is a loser


Scott Schipperke, or whatever the hell his name is, is a loser. Straight up, LOSER. First, he gives us the dismay of creed. Just to have ones ears hear a mere tune of creed can break the soul. Then, (thank god) he pulls a coolio, and falls off the face of the earth. I remember the height of creeds short-lived "fame." Those were some of the darkest days of my life. Creed is what started the "emo" generation, which I talk about a bit in my chav poem. Whatever. And again, I deeply apoligize for the lack of posts. My new profile image is just a tad bit disputed. People... well... People suck. Nuff said.

Chav Poem

Chavs! I hate chavs so much, it inspired me to write a poem:
Oh the chavs, walking around in their bright colors, listening to their dance music.
Ah, the preps, with their little "cute" outfits. Their dance music hurts my ears.
Oh the jocks with their jerseys and whore blonde girlfriends. They will get pregnant.
Oh the goths with their black outfits and makeup and everything else.
Oh the emos with their constant supply of razors, needles, drugs, alchohol, and sex partners.
Oh the normal kids and their hidden problems. Many, many, MANY hidden problems.
Oh the rockers, that think the Jonas brothers are death metal musicians.


Oh the many groups of high school.
I hate them all.

A website you NEED to visit!

Visit this site.http://www.mandiapple.com/snowblood/index2.htm. It is a great website, giving reviews on Asian horror. And if you went to the first link, (the post below this one) and the video didn't play, just go to you tube and search ''headstrongrulez'' and play the video that says "fuze." The second video will play if you click on the link, but don't be skeptical if it isn't the same account as the first one... It is the account of her step-brother, Noah. I think I'll be posting a video on here soon. Also visit this site:http://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=At40Y7MTrwkCn8xxjuyAR.bZxQ.;_ylv=3?show=D7zD8UCzaa, It is my Yahoo! Answers account!

Becca's Graduation













My sister graduated! YAY!!!!!!!!!! The Guy pronounced everyones name wrong. My mom and dad actually kept bitching about how they thought it would be incredibly hot outside, but it was a pleasant tempurature. I made a recipe for fake blood. It is made with, Corn syrup, Red paint, Purple Paint, and thats it. Oh well, I got kind of bored with it. It fell over one time and got all over the bathroom floor.

Well right now my Mom and Grandma (ill grandma, by the way) are eating food from a resturant I don't like. And when I get mad, I get destructive! No... kidding. No really! KIDDING! Oh well. We are in Lexington. I just want to say that the blog, "I hate my kid, Forthelifeofme" SUCKS! The creator bashed me. I am 11, so I guess my "wise sords" made her think that I was an adult. Trust me, if I were an adult, my posts would have been far too sugarcoated. I would have said stupid stuff, and been far too cautious. Oh well!

The Start






















The Best thing about having this blog, is being able to say what I want without people arguing. I saw a blog and it inspired me to make one of my own. To start, I should tell you some things about myself. My name is Brynn, I love horror movies. Especially Asian horror. My favorite movie is 28 days later.
My life is okay right now. Bye All. For now.
(that photo up there is obviously me looking crazy.)

I'll do this later when I have something meaningful to say.
