"Inside the snow globe on my father's desk, there was a penguin wearing a red-and-white-striped scarf. When I was little my father would pull me into his lap and reach for the snow globe. He would turn it over, letting all the snow collect on the top, then quickly invert it. The two of us watched the snow fall gently around the penguin. The penguin was alone in there, I thought, and I worried for him. When I told my father this, he said, 'Don't worry Susie; he has a nice life. He's trapped in a perfect world."

Another favorite flickr finds! Fairytale-like pictures are from David Urbanke. Do you know how old he is? He's only 15 yet he took beautiful photos, I wonder if he's self-taught. Hmmm... Anyway, we're closer to Valentine's Day. A lot of street concerts, food, and of course couples. So I'm going to throw a question and post your answers in this entry. How will you celebrate the upcoming lovey-dovey day? :)
P.S. I recently received an inspiring message from Trishie (Under Lock and Key) that she has given me a Princess Award! I'm going to do the tagging thingy one day. I promise! Thank you for posting my link in your site as well as the award. *blush*
