Vocabanana

So I'm gonna use my vocab words in a paragraph cause I have a quiz tomorrow! It won't make much sense but it will be good practice right?

In an isolated land far far away, there was once a leader who ruled over the entire Southeastern empire of ... Narnia (haha can't think of any other lands). He was known around the land as being quite an egregious leader. He once tried to galvanize his often-lethargic countrymen into working for the government without receiving any benefits whatsoever. Another time, the ruler threatened to throw his countrymen into a dangerous labyrinth and the survivor at the end would be elected to his Narnian cabinet. How absurd! When confronted about such atrocities, the leader only gave a maudlin reply by going off on a tangent about how he loved and appreciated his countrymen, a terrible lie! The countrymen were at their wits' end, they could no longer deal with their not-so-gregarious ruler. Their previous tactics were unsuccessful so they concluded their last resort was to fully ostracize him to the outskirts of Narnia. They came up with a plan to lock the ruler in his castle for 3.141592 days so he would starve, then tantalize the ruler to come out using food, lots of food, because everyone likes food! The plan worked: after the time period of 3.141592 days, the leader was released into the wild, mutating into a carnivorous beast on a hunt for prey. With only a laconic "bye," the ruler raced into the southern forests, away from the Narnian splendor. He never returned. The city gates were locked forever and from then on, Machiavellian rulers no longer roamed the cobblestones of Narnia. The end!

When you get your braces off, eat a banana. It's the oddest feeling ever. I started nonstop giggling when I ate it during 4th and people thought I went insane. But other than that.. I LOVE having my train tracks gone forever! (who knows, but i'll try not to jinx it..) My teeth feel so weird in my mouth.

I hate how I take things for granted. I overlook, I don't appreciate, I lessen its importance. I'm a lucky person, we all are. I just have to constantly remind myself of that. I am thankful.
