Once upon a time, there was a little girl. Her big brother, who was named Red, was journeying in a faraway land, so everyone called her Little Red. She lived at the edge of a vast forest, dark and mysterious. "You must always be careful when you go into that forest." he mother would warn her, tying her red cloak snugly at her neck to keep out the cold. "There is a terrible beast living there, who will snatch you up and eat you if he can. So stay on the path, you must never leave the path. And come straight back home, like a good girl should." The little girl nodded obediently. She never talked. But she was always sure to do as her mother to

If you're reading this, you're no doubt fascinated by the numberless possibilities presented by the pokemon games. So many generations, so many pokemon, so many glitches to exploit, challenges to enter... There's so much to the games, one would say it's impossible to finish them. You could fight the Elite Four until your pokemon are level 100, you can earn perfect scores in all the contests, you can breed and EV train for the competitive metagame... Yes, there's so much to do isn't there? But suppose you've finished. You've achieved all there is to achieve. Your team is at level 100, and so powerful you can defeat the Elite Four by closing y

I found the cutest pokemon in the grass today. It wears little white bows in its hair, and has the biggest baby blue eyes you've ever seen. I was just eating lunch when I heard a rustle in the grass, and there it was, hiding behind a tree and looking at me. I think it must have been shy, it was so adorable. I didn't even have to fight it, I just held out one of the cookies I was eating and it came running up and hugged my arm. So of course I had to bring it home. A quick search on the PC told me it was called a gothita. (I wish I had a pokedex, but those are only for registered trainers.) She's making friends with Chippy my patrat and Lilly m

It's an endless loop. I don't mind it so much, I guess. I've gotten to know the different terrains really well, and I always loved exploring. It's what I always wanted to do, after all, this journey. Maybe I should be thankful that even when it ends, I get to do it over again. When you choose your starter, and release them for the first time, the look of trust and love in their eyes... Well, even jaded as I've become, it's the one thing that never fails to melt my heart. Maybe I'm lucky. Not everyone gets to live out their dream over and over again. "I love you, mom." "All boys dream of traveling. It said so on TV." There are good parts.

June 3 I found a weird rock washed up on the sand when I was at the beach today. It looks kind of like a shell, with lots of weird legs on the bottom. I'm going to take it to the lab tomorrow and see if the scientists there know about it. June 4 Today was the best day ever!! I took that rock to the lab and the man there told me it was a fossil! He said it was from something called kabuto, and they could even revive it for me. I ran right back home and begged mom to let me have it. It must have taken a straight hour of promising I'd take care of it and clean up after it and train it real good but she finally said yes! Which was good because

 By now, I'm sure you've played Black or White. You've marveled, or scoffed, at the new pokemon,  beaten the gym leaders one after another, gasped at the plot. You've been to Nimbasa City. You rode the ferris wheel there with N, didn't you? If you were playing a girl, perhaps you giggled to yourself about N's rather flirtatious dialogue. It's such a cute scene. A few days later, maybe you returned to the ferris wheel, hoping for another ride with N, to find a trainer there instead. My first one was a waitress, who invited me to a battle, and then some girl talk. After you win against the trainer, you get to watch the animation o

Starting today, I'll become popular. I'm going to be friendly. I'm going to be beautiful. I'm going to be happy. Paint my nails, cut my hair, change my clothes, tan my skin. I'm just like them now, happy and beautiful. I fit in. I'm so happy. Ha, look at those nerds. They're so uncool. You think I'm cool, right? Ha, look at those geeks, what losers. I never used to be like them! Ha, look at those girls. They're so ugly. See, I have nothing in common with the people we mock! Sure I'll sleep with you. That will make you love me right? I won't tell you it's my first time. I won't ask you to slow down even when it hurts. I want th

I'm writing this poem for you Not him, or her, or the one reading over your shoulder You. It started a small thing Scribbled in margins, and thoughts in my head At first I didn't know what I was writing. But it grew, and I realized what it was. It's for you. I may never know you Behind your screen, next door Or a million miles away But it's for you all the same. You may never read this. May skim over it, may find it boring, may pick it up and put it down But it's still for you. This is my voice, reaching out to you who I will never touch Never know But for a moment, we're connected. This is the only poem I have ever written

I only want from you, my love, that which I can not have. Catch me the moon in a silver net, Pour the stars through your fingers For me. I only want from you, my love, that which I can not have. Capture a swansong Cage a bird in flight For me. I wonder if you know Why I ask impossibilities. I wonder if you know I know I'll be denied them. I wonder if you know That I love you. I only want from you, my love, that which I can not have. Yourself.

You want to break free Of the lowly ground           You want to live All that you’ve found                                                                       You want to kiss The starry sky                                                                                           Not to watch the world Go passing by So go to sleep   In your cocoon Don’t be afraid     You’ll wake up soon   And when you open up your eyes   You’ll wake up as butterflies You long to float above the pain No more grey clouds No more dark rain You want to float In a sea of bliss No cares just stars Above to
