Where the Purple Owls Play

Your Mind is Your Strongest Weapon

Where the Purple Owls Play
Molly Rose Dyer

I want to go
Where the purple owls play
And against a lime green sky
Blue trees of oak grow tall

In a land of satisfied desires
From the simplest of pleasures
To the darkest in the depths of your mind
Light the fire and follow the smoke

Up, up, and away

The sun shines at night
The moon illuminates the day
The stars are always bright
In the land where the purple owls play

What if clouds were mountains
And we could climb them to the moon
Would you dance with me among the stars
In an everlasting cosmic swoon?

The silence is never loud
The sirens sing their songs of love
You can hear only what you want to hear
And see the owls only if you look

Private hallways in your head
Lead to wall-less rooms of open thought
You, too, can visit the land
Where the purple owls play

Wherever you are
Whenever you want
Learn to live inside your head
There are no walls to stop you there

Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.

RBF

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.

Anna Kendrick, poor Kristen Stewart, the Queen of England are all life-long sufferers of RBF. Victoria Beckham even made a career out of it! And though it's usually used to describe women, some men are also afflicted. Kanye West is the best example of this.
