platydillos, Fractals and friends

so this morning I woke up... well i was sort of already away because my legs felt like someone was hitting them with hammers and i couldn't fall asleep to save my life, but anyway, upon waking up, my first thought was PLATADILLO. a cross between an armadillo and a platypus. so there was my random thought for the morning.
   The rest of the day went on pretty much as usual. but when i got to English class my English teacher told us about Fractal Artwork. Now assuming you don't know what that is, which you probably dont, fractal artwork is art made up of mathmatical equations. no, you dont draw a picture with numbers... well ok you sort of do... but not how you're thinking. some how these complex equations, when enterd into a computer or something actually make colors and designs. This method not only works for images but for sounds. yes, sounds. you can make music with math. wow, that's not a sentence i ever expected to say. aparently these complex equations make some sort of frquency and you can combine a bunch and get pretty music. how? i have absolutely no idea. you may as well be asking me to tell you what zesty unicorn bits taste like... but if you want to check it out here ya go ------>

now the big thing i wanted to rant about today was my friends. Honestly. I have really amazing friends. They stick up for me, make me laugh, help me through hard times and are just in general really amazing people. I can always count on them and I hope they know they can always count on me. There is no way that I would be as happy with my life as I am now if it were not for my friends. someone once told me "friends are like stars, they're always there, even when you can't see them" my friends all accept me for me, they don't car that I'm insane half the time because most of my friends like to be insane right along with me. There's some friends who I've known all my life and there are others who I've only know months years or even days. All of my friends are truly amazing though and a lot of the time, I just take them for granted, they're just there and I don't give them a second thought. I realized today however, that friends don't always stay in your life. everything changes, people die, they move away and they grow up. So here's to all the friends I have who have been with me through thick and thin. and here's to one person in particular. Danielle. I was friends with her for 2 years before she died 4 summers ago. Danielle and I and one of our other friends were inseparable. Thinking back on that day is what made me realize that sometimes I do take my friends for granted so, to every last one of my friends, weather I've known you for years and years or just a few days, thank you.  You're all amazing and I'm so lucky to be friends with every one of you.
