Welcome, welcome.

You have found your self here: on Ellie's semi-kept-up blog.

Lots of tidbits and nothingness reside here. Don't feel obligated to read anything.

If you're interested, here's a random blog I wrote (+photos) while traveling in New Zealand in 2012: newsieland.wordpress.com

With love,

I need prayer

Hey everyone!

I don't know if all of you know, but this summer I'm going to be a part of an AMF summer missionary group! :) We have about 6 teens in the group and a director, and what we do is go around to various camps in Oregon and help out with whatever is needed: cooking, recreation, music, cleaning, etc. Anyway, today (Saturday) I take off for the first of my many week long summer camps. I'm actually a little anxious, and I know it's going to be hard being away from home almost all summer. :( If you guys wouldn't mind praying for me, I would appreciate it more than words can express. Thank you so much!

Love you all!

God Bless!

The Princess Bride

Some of the quotes from this movie keep running through my head. I thought I'd share a few of them with you. :)

Buttercup: You can die too for all I care.

[pushes him down a high hill]

Westley: AS... YOU... WISH.

Buttercup: Oh my sweet Westley what have I done?

[throws herself down the hill]

*

Inigo Montoya: Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
Count Rugen: Stop saying that!

*


Miracle Max: You rush a miracle man, you get rotten miracles.

*

Vizzini: INCONCEIVABLE.

*

Vizzini: HE DIDN'T FALL? INCONCEIVABLE.

Inigo Montoya: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

*

Inigo Montoya: I donna suppose you could speed things up?

Westley: If you're in such a hurry, you could lower a rope or a tree branch or find something useful to do.

Inigo Montoya: I could do that. I have some rope up here, but I do not think you would accept my help, since I am only waiting around to kill you.

Westley: That does put a damper on our relationship.

*

Inigo Montoya: I do not mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?

Westley: Do you always begin conversations this way?

*

Inigo Montoya: You seem a decent fellow. I hate to kill you.
Westley: You seem a decent fellow. I hate to die.

*

Buttercup: You mock my pain.

Westley: Life is pain, Highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something.

*

Vizzini: I can't compete with you physically, and you're no match for my brains.

Westley: You're that smart?

Vizzini: Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates?

Westley: Yes.

Vizzini: Morons.

*

Buttercup: You're the Dread Pirate Roberts, admit it.

Westley: With pride. What can I do for you?

Buttercup: You can die slowly, cut into a thousand pieces.

Westley: Tsk, tsk. That's hardly complementary Highness. Why loose your venom on me?

Buttercup: You killed my love.

Westley: It's possible. I kill a lot of people.

*

Dread Pirate Roberts: Good night, Westley. Good work. Sleep well. I'll most likely kill you in the morning.
