This may possibly end up being one of the corniest-titled posts I've produced yet, as you will soon discover. It is trebly meaningful.
First, I've made a resolution that I'm going to try not to stress out about all the crap that my teachers are going to throw at me within the next few weeks. So far, it's working. Let's see if I can keep to my decision and keep from being bogged down by despair.
Second, it is the title of a fun song from Spam-a-Lot brought to the world by Monty Python. I sometimes sing it during biology with a friend of mine who also loves it. She knows the words, and I'm content to sing the few words I know and sing "la la la" with great energy for the parts I don't know, so we make a great duo.
Third, (and this is the part that makes my title kind of lame), I discovered something fascinating sitting on someone's curb for garbage collection after school today. My mom pointed it out as we drove past and I told her to turn around and let me get out and snag it. So we turned around and I had to stuff this thing in the trunk along with six backpacks and a clarinet because the car was already crammed with seven people in a vehicle made with six seatbelts that provides uncomfortable seating even when only five people are in it. This item is now sitting in my room, and I'm not sure what to do with it. When I started typing this, I had intended to describe it and add a picture. But presently the only possible use I can come up with for this unique piece of craftsmanship is the white elephant gift exchange, and I don't want to ruin the surprise for anyone. But I can assure you it relates to the title of my post. You can try to guess if you'd like, but asking any of my siblings, the Corbins, the Browns, or the McCrates is cheating (even though most of you wouldn't know who they all were to ask them, I thought I'd make it clear that you can't ask them for those of you who do know them).

"Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" has its origin in the crucifixion scene of "Life of Brian." There is some trivia for you.
I assume this item would exceed in greatness the used stickers, asthmatic children's book, and the used book about drawing animals with drawings already inside that I wound up with last year? This thing must be truly mighty.
Well it's considerably less practical (yes, even taking into account the low usefulness rating of what you wound up with last year, this thing is useless) and more cumbersome, but it has a certain charm to it. I actually like it in a quirky way (don't worry, I won't blame you if you really don't care about it, it's a very Maria kind of thing, as one of my neighbors described it) and find it very interesting. I'm sure I could eventually put it to some use in the distant future, but in the meantime it's merely a bulky inconvenience in my small room.
