PARABOLICAL GRAFFITI

I think I'm starting to forget what the outdoors looked like when the sun was shining...

Is it bad that the main reason I'm upset about the sun being gone is that my plant died? The leaves fell off of it and everything.

Hey, Dad, I'm gonna go spend the night with Scout and hang out with him a while, okay? I know you're kind of busy, and it's been a while since I've seen him and Mantis.

Is Mom gonna be okay without me around? Maybe I should get her to come, too. .. Nah, she and Dad were together way before I got here.

I want the sun to come back.

Happy Valentines Day for tomorrow, is it? I didn't even know it existed but I went to the store and there were pretty heart balloons everywhere. I asked the man what they were for and he laughed at me until he realized I actually was being serious. It sounds like a lovely day, really. Does anyone want to be my Valentine? I was just wondering - everyone seems to be getting into the whole swing of it.

So, uh. My ghost senses went off earlier. That can't be good. Considering there wasn't a single ghost in sight.

I think my heart is trying to leave my chest. Allah, I hurt.



It feels strange, having time to pray properly again. Before, I was lucky to get in the three most essential prayers, and most religious observances were quite impossible (besides zakat and sawm, of course, because it isn't difficult to be charitable or go hungry). I never liked practicing while in one of the colonies, anyway; it isn't the same as being on earth where you can really face Mecca. To be honest, though, I haven't been a very good Muslim in a long time. It's hard to, when you're fighting a war that hasn't been sanctioned by your faith.


I have to believe that I won't be condemned for this. I'm doing what's right. Why else would I have been cursed to be able to feel others' pain, if it isn't to help those people?

Aang! I saw you on the news earlier tonight! They showed some footage a helicopter snagged of you squaring off against that lava monster. Didn't get me or Luke in the shot, but still very cool seeing you on TV, even if you were described as "unknown young male" by the anchors.

Merry Christmas, everyone! And Happy Yule to those like Miss Sarah, who celebrate that instead. Even though I'm not sure what day that exactly falls on. Here's to hoping that 2005 is a good year for us all!

i miss my parents...

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate. Merry December 25th to those who don't.

Not gonna be around for the next three nights. Just so everyone is aware.

Whoever put the mistletoe up over my office door is going to die.

Does anyone else have any...traditions they do around Christmas? Like taking turns reading passages from Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol?"

my family used to, when i was alive

Well, this is definitely new. Anybody want to explain what happened to this place? I definitely didn't hear anything about it back home.

Just out of curiosity, does anything happen around here for Christmas?

It's kind of weird, having a mom and dad. Especially since my dad's been around all along and I didn't know. But neither did he, so it's okay, I guess. I'm really glad, though. I always got really jealous when I went to visit Biggs or Fixer and met their parents. They were really nice. And they always hugged me before I left. Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru never hugged me much. I guess maybe because they're my uncle and aunt and not my mom and dad, because Mom hugs me all the time.

Not that I want to be hugged or anything. That's for babies.


I met a prince. Sort of. Over this network thing. He seems nice. He's kind of old, though. Older than me, at least.

Oh! I want to go to the beach, too! I've never been to one! I've seen pictures, though, and that's a whole lot of water, too. And I want to learn to swim. I'll bet I could.



I've already took everything apart. I thought about maybe taking this computer apart, too, but if Mom needs it, I don't want it to be in pieces or anything. I wonder if Dad would let me take apart his lightsaber.

I think...I think I died...
