Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

You should really

You should really see the buildings they design these days. They're so... modern and slick and..well..COOL. The tallest tower, Burj Khalifa, is a 1/2 mile high! DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG THAT IS?! 828 meters, in case you don't (that's LONG). Random notice that has NOTHING to do with this: Pudding, I have memorized the entire Romeo and Juliet prologue!LaughingPeace out!

 

Congratulations, Elizabeth. That's awesome!

Oooh Shakespeare. All I know is "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" and that everyone always dies and if I try to read his material, my brain explodes after two sentences.

Anyway, downtown they're buildling two apartment buildings that look like those curvy coke bottles. It's pretty cool.

That's REALLY  cool. And you're right, most of Shakespeare's works are tragedies.

Oh my gosh I love the Burj Khalifa. It is soooooooo pretty. It looks like sci-fi, seriously. I've always thought people should make use of our modern technology to actually make our buildings pretty, I mean we're pretty much capable of way more than any other civilization before us but for some reason we have to have ugly square buildings.
I mean really, the Romans had nice buildings. The ancient Egyptians had nice buildings. Even medieval Europe had some nice buildings. It's about time.

You're right, Emily. Most buildings are gray, square, and dull. So thank GOODNESS for all the intricate tall works of art we have in the world, right? And, for SOME weird reason, people think the boring gray buildings are new and modern. But WHY? Oh, and you should look at the Petronas towers in Kuala Lumpur. This was my expression when I first saw them:Surprised!!!! Peace out!

There's this really cool building on the campus of a college in Cambridge that's all lopsided and wavy.
