How Do!

Tuck Everlasting rules. The movie, that is. The book was ok, but Jesse and Winnifred didn't even kiss! This is an outrage! The couple simply has to kiss in a romance story. Ha, just joking. The book was pretty cool, but it would have been nicer if they kissed. :) Call me a romantic, or anything you want, but yeah...

It was a pretty monotonous day. Paula's slipper got stuck up a tree when she tried to use it to get Amanda's shuttlecock DOWN from the tree. Almighty tree, almighty slipper. The slipper got down, but the shuttlecock ain't got such luck. Let me elaborate:

At first, when the shuttlecock got stuck up there, the guy we were playing badminton with got out a long bamboo pole and a small table. He stood on the table and tried to use the pole to get the shuttlecock down..to no avail. So Paula tried using her slipper, and you know what happened.

After a while trying to use her OTHER slipper to get the slipper that was stuck up the tree down, Paula was still full of strength, and our mighty heroine persisted. Yet the damsel always seems to be in distress, and thy valiant knight saved the day by brandishing his wonderful, powerful, miraculous...ladder! (P.S. This is all dramatic exaggeration on my part. Ignore me.)

So in the end, the slipper was saved, but not the shuttlecock. Ironic, isn't it?
