Why hello there!

I am a martian.
No, seriously, I am a martian. Stop laughing. Please.
i live on Mars. Yes, I really do. It's quite boring, contrary to popular belief. I honestly don't see what all you humans see in it. Stay on your own planet, don't screw up ours too.
Anyway, I am fairly ordinary as far as martians go. I go to school, I get bored to tears at school, I live underground with my family. Normal? Yes, very. Very, very normal and slightly boring.

In my spare time, I like to write. I write whenever I get the spare time to do so. I prefer poetry, but novels and short stories can be fun too. Anyway, I'm kinda new at this because most martians don't really write stuff, but so far I think its fun!!

Nice to see you!

"On the loose to climb a mountain, on the loose where I am free
On the loose to live my life the way I think my life should be
For I've only got a moment and this whole world yet to see
I'll be looking for tomorrow on the loose"
-On the loose

"To me you'll be forever sacred. I'm dying, but I know our love will live. Your hand above, like a dove over me. Remember, to me you'll be forever sacred."
-Tokio Hotel : Sacred

"2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song. If I get it all down on paper, it's no longer inside of me, threatening the life it belongs to. And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd, 'cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud and I know that you'll use them, however you want to."
-Anna Nalick : Breathe (2 AM)

“Haikus are easy
But sometimes they don’t make sense,
Refrigerator.”
-My friend Aiden’s T-shirt

“And all at once the crowd begins to sing, ‘Sometimes...’ We'd never know what's wrong without the pain, Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same.”
-The Fray : All At Once

Is it enough to love? Is it enough to breathe? Somebody rip my heart out, and leave me here to bleed. Is it enough to die? Somebody save my life. I'd rather be anything but ordinary please.
-Avril Lavigne : Anything but Ordinary

"the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whispered in the sounds of silence."
-Simon and Garfunkel : The Sounds of Silence

"My fingertips are holding onto the cracks in our foundations, and I know that I should let go, but I can't. And everytime we fight I know its not right, everytime that your upset and I smile I know I should forget, but I can't."
-Kate Nash : Foundations

"Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes.
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train.
Switch on summer from a slot machine.
Get what you want to if you want, 'cause you can get anything.

I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass.
For your lorryloads pumping petrol gas.
And you make them long, and you make them tough.
But they just go on and on, and it seems you can't get off.

Oh, I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

When you crack the sky, scrapers fill the air.
Will you keep on building higher
'til there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
Will you tell us when to live, will you tell us when to die?

I know we've come a long way,
We're changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?"

-Cat Stevens : Where do the Children Play?
