Book the Fourth

To Beatrice - 
My love flew like a butterfly
Until death swooped down like a bat
As the poet Emma Montana McElroy once said;
"That's the end of that."

seriously?? It's an awesome song! =D You could play it with your guitar. Acoustic sounds really good with this song! =D and may I ask what book is it you're talking about? The Beatrice thing..

Yeap! I don't play my guitar much, it's just rotting in a corner, haha but the song really does sound good on the guitar =D Oh, I'm re-reading A Series of Unfortunate Events so I'm just quoting the dedications of the book which I think is pretty cool (I mean the dedications, not me quoting them XD)

Hahaha. Yea it's so well written. Even if it's just the dedications. Haha. Lemony Snicket (is that his real name?) is a great author. His use of words are great. Which makes it no wonder why you write so well. Hmm.. maybe I should start reading his books too.

Haha, Lemony Snicket is his pen name, his actual name is Daniel Handler but I've never read any of his books that's written under his real name. He has a great vocabulary (somehow I like to copy his writing style, haha...). My friend and I were totally obsessed with A Series of Unfortunate Events back in Junior 3, and we still are... XD
