""I feel a haiku coming on." Apollo cleared his throat and held up one hand dramatically.
'Green grass breaks through snow
Artemis pleads for my help
I am so cool.'
"That last line was only four syllables," Artemis said.
Apollo frowned. "Was it?"
"Yes. What about, 'I am so big-headed'?"
"No, no, that's six syllables. Hmm." He started muttering to himself.
Zoe Nightshade turned to us. "Lord Apollo has been going through this haiku phase ever since he visited Japan. 'Tis not as bad as the time he visited Limerick. If I'd had to hear one more poem that started with, 'There was once a goddess from Sparta--"
"I've got it!" Apollo announced. "'I am so awesome'. That's five syllables!" He bowed, looking very pleased with himself. "

Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief!!!
This is my favorite movie poster...its actually the same picture as the cover of the book except with Logan instead of a drawing:)
Here is our 3 main hero's!!! Percy (as Beautiful as always;), Annabeth, and Grover!
Here is Poseidon! I know this isn't a photo from the movie but they haven't released any of him yet sadly. Isn't he just delicious?:)
Here is Grover! He was hilarious!!! I love him too!
Quote of the Day:
This quote is from the book not the movie but oh well
"Hades raised an eyebrow. When he sat forward in his throne, shadowy faces appeared in the folds of his black robes, faces of torment,as if the garment was stitched of trapped souls from the Fields of Punishment, trying to get out. The ADHD part of me wondered, off-task, whether the rest of his clothes were made the same way. What horrible things would you have to do in your life to get woven into Hades' underwear?"
