In the hopes of winning that Neil Gaiman book from Avalon.ph [oh please oh please pick me!]:


Ten years ago i was everything: i was bold, i was reckless, i was strong, i ruled the world--i ruled MY world, i was happy with anything, and got hurt about nothing but getting my ankles bruised, or my candies being stolen away from me (or from cavities), or from losing a game. i was curious, i wasn't skeptical or pessimistic--i never knew what it meant back then, i believed, and boy, did i believe in everything and anything. life was an adventure: from waking up in the morning, from discovering what i'll have for breakfast, for lunch, for dinner or the mid meal snacks, adventure was running around and imagining i was a cop, a robber, or a pirate, or a scientist. Adventure was going to a place i've never been to--be it a park, a mall or just a house--even an empty lot. Ten years ago, i was a kid. and most of the kids in us died because we refused to save them.
