Look at this stuff

Isn't it neat?

Wouldn't you think my collection is complete?

Would you think I'm a girl

The girl who has everything


Look at this trove

Treasures untold

How many wonders can one cavern hold?

Looking around here you'd think


Sure,


She's got everything



I've got gadgets and gizmos aplenty

I've got whozits and whatzits galore

You want thingamabobs?

I've got twenty


But who cares

No big deal

I want more



I wanna be where the people are

I wanna see wanna see em' dancing

Walking around on those


What do you call them?


Flipping your fins you don't get too far

Legs are required for jumping, dancing

Strolling down along a street



Up where they walk

Up where they run

Up where they stay all day in the sun


Wandering free wish I could be part of that world




What would I give if I could live out of these waters?


What would I pay to spend a day warm on the sand


Betcha on land they understand

Bet they don't reprimand the daughters

Bright young woman, sick of swimming, ready to stand



And ready to know what the people know

Ask 'em questions and get some answers

What's a fire and why does it


What's the word?


Burn..



When's it my turn

Wouldn't I love

Love to explore that shore up above

Out of the sea wish I could be



part of that world

OMG!!


I'm super exited for this trip:)

You know what,

I must be crazy.


Cannot wait!!





But,


somehow my swimming coach is being stupid,

I have to go practice...

Before trip.




Freaking suck.





Though I love my coach.

He's my English teacher.




He's awesome teacher that I've never seen before.











Sometime I miss Japan,

but I feel like I wanna stay here forever.





HAHAH lol

You think I'm an ignorant savage

And you've been many places I guess it must be so

But still I cannot see

If the savage one is me

How can there be so much that you don't know?

You don't know


You think you own whatever land you land on

The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim

But I know every rock and tree and creature has a life, has a spirit, has a name

You think only people who are people

And the people who look and think like you

But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger

You'll learn things

you never knew

you never knew


Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?

Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?

Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?

Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?




Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest

Come taste the Sunsweet berries of the Earth

Come roll in all the riches all around you

And for once,

never wonder what they're worth

The rainstorm and the river are my brothers

The heron and the otter are my friends

And we are all connected to each other

In a circle in a hoop that never ends


How high does the sycamore grow?

If you cut it down, you'll never know

And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon

For whether we are white or copper skinned

We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains

We need to paint with all the colors of the wind

You can own the Earth and still

All you'll own is Earth until you can paint with all the colors of the wind
