About

JABBERWOCKY
Lewis Carroll
(from Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872)

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.


"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.


`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

That particular henna was blue, yes. She does some stuff to make really nice colours with the henna, though the customized colours don't last too long. I still like them though.

My friend's mom loves it, and they both love me so I get a bit of a free pass [her mom as tons of that stuff]. I'll lay down in my boxers [or sometimes naked] and have Krista paint the designs on me, sometimes freehand but usually from stencils we make. It's fun!

Heh, they are henna tattoos. I try different designs a lot. Do you like them? I have to admit I love henna a lot. I dislike permanent tattoos since I'm someone that likes to try new designs a lot and I'd rather not overdo tattoos on every spot I can find... plus permanent tattoo removal leaves a bit of a mark.

Thanks!

Also, looks like the topic died. I actually enjoy good discussion so it's always disappointing when a topic halts.

I've been well, thank you.

I'm basically attending summer school to take a couple of prerequisites and just chilling whenever I can.
