Fifty brownie points to the reader than can name where the title of this post came from. I will love you forever. (And yes, it has to be where I’m getting it from, not some other source. If there is one.
Moving on to business, once again I have very little time to post today. But, as promised, you can find the second short story of the week by clicking the picture below. As a warning to anyone unfamiliar with my short stories, they tend to have hefty elements of tragedy. Today’s is a war scene, so please do not go read it expecting a happily ever after. Those of you that tend to cry may even want to grab a few tissues, though I do not deem this my best work.
Finally, when you have finished, I recommend taking a listen to this song. An awesome English teacher of mine showed it to me after reading this story, and it ties in rather well.
Were you thinking of Barlowgirl, Beautiful Ending?
Yes, ma’am! Dingdingding we have a winner! ::hands metaphorical plate of brownies::
Nice, haha 🙂 I used to be a serious Barlowgirl fan.. I hear they broke up though.
Did they? I hadn’t heard that! My friends toured with them last year… Hm. I’ll have to look into that. I’ve never been a huge fan, just because loud, rock-ish music gives me migraines, but I love Beautiful Ending and Never Alone.
Yah, they just announced it on their website I think. What band is your friend in? Or are they stand alone? I understand how you feel about rock music, haha. I consider Barlowgirl really mild, I listen to some hardcore-ish metal bands occasionally, but there are times when anything that isn’t totally mellow kills my brain. What style of music do you prefer?
Wow. That’s sad! I’m actually friends with the whole band, Reilly. Christian rock/folk with dueling violins. Really sweet stuff. They were on their Christmas tour either last year or the year before. 🙂 They are really mild, and I listen to them when I can, but for some reason their drums really get to me. I prefer folk, Celtic, and old hymns most of the time, though I’m tolerant of nearly anything but metal, Bieber-style hip-hop, and rap.
