Everything was stupid. Stupid school, stupid teachers, stupid homework. Especially the last point. Why did she need to analyse the context and meaning of historical stories?
She was in a bad mood today, but who could blame her? She had been given a lunch time detention for no reason whatsoever (okay, maybe she shouldn't have been throwing paper aeroplanes across the classroom), and mom had kept her from going to hockey practice because of this. Could her day get much worse?
Well, apparently it could, because she still had a big book full of historical mythology to read. The title didn't even make sense; was is history, or was it mythology?
Still, she found the willpower to open the book and read through its dusty pages. It was boring. That is, until she got to the romance section.
Oh, how she would love to live in the past! Not only could you control the elements, but the was a seemingly endless amount of guys who weren't douchebags. What a way to live!
(Apart from the 100 war that was going on through most of the stories, of course.)
She had even figured out her favourite stories from the book. A really good one was with a guy and a girl from opposite water tribes who fell in love. She was a princess and he was a chief's son, but the girl was engaged to another man. In the end, the girl sacrificed herself for the moon spirit, and she died in his arms, but she came back as a spirit just to kiss him one last time.
Yeah, that was a good story. But the best one had everything; It was the story of a man from the Fire Nation and a woman from the Water Tribe (these names were once two of the four nations of the world, though they meant nothing now). They were enemies turned lovers, a prince and a peasant who grew to be the Fire Lord and Lady. She now recognised the man's name; he was the Fire Lord that restored peace to the four nations. Maybe she hadn't been paying attention to the history lesson when they talked of his wife, but she wished she had been. The two were absolutely perfect; they were opposites, fire and water, hot and cold, ying and yang, but their pasts were so similar. They even (unintentionally) dressed up as spirit lovers, the blue spirit and the painted lady, who were also written about in the book. And if that wasn't enough, he jumped in front of lightning for her at the end of the war, the day of sozin's comet! How romantic!
She soon found that she wanted to keep this book; it and stories that excited her, with bending and romance and the four elements. It was an escape from the dreary life of republic city, where bending was long gone and the four nations had faded away.
She wanted to make sure that this book of mythology never faded away.

I'm not even going to talk about this entry. IT SUCKS SO BAD.
So...I might take a little break with writing entries for a few days, I'm getting tired. :(
Then again, maybe not. I'll see how I feel tomorrow.
Ugh, we have a football assessment tomorrow. I suck at football. I can't defend, attack or even kick the football!
(Oh, soccer for all my American Freundes)
(That was German)
Speaking of German, we're basically just eating German food tomorrow in German class. Whoop for German!
You have all probably stopped reading, so I will shut up now. Goodbye.
Pls review!
