The New Blogger on the Street

Hello all! I’m Joseph, and I’m so excited to be here! I hope that you all will enjoy this blog just as much as I am! Just as the title says, I am the new kid on the block, and I am  very excited about a fresh, crisp start to my virtual home.



Me, Myself, and I:
I am a fourteen-year-old ESFP that loves to compose music, specifically in a neo-romantic style, though I also dabble in other types. I also enjoy writing, dreaming, and the occasional nostalgic moments I encounter.

But before I tell anything else about myself, I must first mention the most important thing about my life: Jesus Christ, my Savior and my King. He loves me, the sinful creature I am, and, someday, he will take me home.


Other facts about me include:

1. My favorite colors are: jade green, light blue, grey, brown, and the like; I love earth colors!


2.  I enjoy video-games, especially the Legend of Zelda series (the emotion!), Super Smash Bros (MELEE ALL THE WAY), Clash of Clans, etc… the list goes on a while…


3.  My family consists of my father, my mother, my older sister Elizabeth (you can read her blog here), and my two younger brothers, Ben and Thomas. We live in a house with a dog, three cats, and a hamster. (And if that isn’t shocking enough, at one point we had a dog, three cats, two guinea pigs, and two hamsters!!)


4.  I enjoy reading, but I don’t do it as much as I should; I am not quite a bookworm. (Maybe a book- slug?)


5. I write sad stories. Enough said.


6.  BBK is AWESOME! (BBK stands for Blogs By Kids, which is a helpful blogging community with lots of cool tips and other stuff!)


7. My favorite superheroes are Hulk, Clint, and Thor. Don’t judge me. (Black Widow is also pretty cool.)


8.  I am a direct descendant of the ancient line of British kings. 

9. I love comics, especially Peanuts, Calvin and Hobbes, and Tin-Tin. (WE MISS YOU HOBBES)


10.  Last, but not least, I am an astronomy geek. I enjoy taking our 127-cm. reflector out with my father and gazing up at Jupiter, Saturn, and beyond! The only catch is that we live in a neighborhood in the middle of town. (Curse you, light pollution!) Still, we have succeeded in capturing some beautiful views.

Well, that’s all for now, folks! I look forward to meeting all of you, and, hopefully, to many years of blogging, conversing, and bonding. Until then, TTFN!

Cider and Pumpkin Bread

What I like best on a cold winter morning is to sit up in bed, drinking apple cider and nibbling on a liberal slice of pumpkin bread. When it's snowing, I like to sit with a good book on my lap and the lights turned down. Or maybe a fireplace. Or both. At least that's how I wish it could be.

Hoar-Frost Yet Aiding

Today I wanted to share some more of my haiku poetry with you. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Hoar-frost yet aiding In the silent slumber they, Entombed, yet endure. The twilight falling, Shrouds those who have gone before, Swiftly to their fates. Heartbeats set in stone, Lips never again to part,  Eyes bleary gazing. The meaning of the poetry is rather complicated (basically it's a scene from a story I am writing); I have hidden some double meanings within it. Feel free to comment below if you would like to share some of your own poetry that you have written; I would love to read it! :)

Nostalgia of the Clouds

Image
I love watching the clouds glide through the sky. And I love looking at the sky itself. Isn't it such a soothing blue? I think God picked the perfect color scheme for our world. Yet at the same time, I love hearing thunder and watching lightning spark in the sky. Don't you just love it at night during a rainstorm? Snuggling up under the covers and falling asleep listening to the steady rhythm of rain meeting your roof (especially if it's a tin roof).  As a little child, I remember swinging and gazing upwards at the clouds. I always wished that I could fly there and play on them (lol, I still do!)  I also remember being afraid of clouds sometimes. Like the time a tornado warning was issued for our city. I remember how scary it was. Thankfully, the tornado never hit us. Definitely God's providence over my family! Another happy memory involving clouds was the time that I flew across the Great Plains to Colorado in an airplane. Looking down at the cloud...
