Ah, it's a good day! :D

The Ronald Reagan letter wasn't the only thing that brightened my day today. A few hours after posting, a package came in the mail.

THE ONE RING IS IN MY HOUSE!

 Yes, it is true. Every ringer's lifelong dream of owning a wonderful replica of the One Ring was finally fullfilled for me. *dreamy sigh* I love it to death.

  *PICTURES COMING SOON!*

BEST. PRESIDENT. EVER. (Apart from Theodore Roosevelt)

   I don't know if any of you have Yahoo! as your homepage, but today there is an article up that made me smile. It's much better than the usual crap Yahoo! puts up about the Kardashians and Obama.

   Former president Ronald Reagan received a letter from a seventh grader:

"Today my mother declared my bedroom a disaster area. I would like to request federal funds to hire a crew to clean up my room."

  And Ronald Reagan wrote back:

"Dear Andy:
I'm sorry to be so late in answering your letter but as you know I've been in China and found your letter here upon my return.
Your application for disaster relief has been duly noted but I must point out one technical problem; the authority declaring the disaster is supposed to make the request. In this case your mother.
However setting that aside I'll have to point out the larger problem of available funds. This has been a year of disasters, 539 hurricanes as of May 4th and several more since, numerous floods, forest fires, drought in Texas and a number of earthquakes. What I'm getting at is that funds are dangerously low.
May I make a suggestion? This administration, believing that government has done many things that could better be done by volunteers at the local level, has sponsored a Private Sector Initiative program, calling upon people to practice voluntarism in the solving of a number of local problems.
Your situation appears to be a natural. I'm sure your mother was fully justified in proclaiming your room a disaster. Therefore you are in an excellent position to launch another volunteer program to go along with the more than 3,000 already underway in our nation—congratulations.
Give my best regards to your mother.
Sincerely, Ronald Reagan"


       xD He was a hilarious guy, and the last great president. Even after someone attempted to kill him, he still cracked a joke ("I forgot to duck.")

Hairstyle Tutorial with MEEEE!

 I don't know if any of you watched this, but I am in a new hairstyle tutorial on the Peppermintsoup channel.

         
  While I would've preferred being in the last video (it had Lord of the Rings music in it!), I did enjoy being the only doll in this one. TAKE THAT, SISTAS! :D

  The song featured in the video (Landslide) is an amazing song and I recommend that you go listen to the full version on YouTube. I get goosebumps everytime I listen to it.

Randomness and Pancakes

 Hello. How are you today? I am good...So, I really don't have all that much to talk about right now...I'll just tell you some random stuff.

1. Did you hear Florence and the Machine's newest song? It is for some movie with that creepy pale girl from Twilight. I've been listening to the song NON-STOP. I LOVE IT.

2. My human is reading Macbeth for her Honors English 2 course...True story. I looked at a bit and (since it's set in Scotland) I tried to read it in a Scottish accent. I failed miserably.

3. Last night, I watched some "People of Walmart" videos. Viewer discretion is adivised. (VERY DISTURBING IMAGES...HOW DID WALMART NOT KICK THEM OUT?!?!)

4.  Pancakes. True story.

5. I can not believe that it is May already. My brain is somewhere back in February or March. I honestly do not know how the time went so fast. Now, I can only think about SUMMER VACATION! :D
