It's a brutal debate that's raged for generations. Many a friendship has literally been made or broken based on this one issue. Am I talking about tax issues? Nope. Immigration policy? Not today. I refer, of course, to the ideological war that we wage every day over the validity and merit of Hawaiian pizza. But rest easy — a solution is here.

So let's bridge this divide, cross the aisle, and let the healing begin as I finally lay to rest the question of Hawaiian pizza — in traditional Shakespearean verse.


Ode To A Flavour So Delicate


Shall I compare thee to a proud lion?

Softly majestic, yet misunderstood —

Surely I speak of pizza Hawaiian

For when else might one's dinner be so good?


Must we fight over a food divided?

And yet tied between savory and sweet

Can we not be a people united

With pineapple topping and ham for meat?


Cynics do object, in most anguished cries:

"Fruit doesn't belong on pizza!" they yell

But to the palate of the knowing wise,

No better combo in Heaven or Hell


So hear! Ye deaf, may you at long last know

Hawaiian pizza is the way to go


And there you have it. I really just laid it all out there; just let the words flow through me. I hope that finally settles this unrelenting conflict; regardless, I'm pretty proud of my work here. Some might call it my "Piece de Resistance." That's French for, "Pass the frog legs." It's a strange land.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer.
