Have you ever went to the Michigan State Fair?
It's really fun.
There are rides, games, music, animals, michigan crops, stands, delicious food, and everything else you'd expect to see at a fair!
There's a big barn there that has a few different types of animals (bunnies & birds) inside.
You can look at ducks and geese over outside the barn in a large pond.
When you're in the barn you'll hear loud "COCK A DOODLE DOO!"s when in the bird rooms and you'll notice little notes tied to the animal's cages. They usually say the animal's age, breed, and sometimes name. The animals are all hand-raised and brought here for a competition. They have awards on the tags too. The birds and bunnies sometimes have funky hair-doos.
Well I would like to hear some comments telling me whether you've been here or not,
thanks again for reading H.P.U.

Cats Rule!
Hello AGAIN, readers!
This post is about my love of cats.
I have loved cats for most of my life.
Here's some reasons why:
My first word was Kitty, "Tee-tay" I called it.
My eyes are two different colors.
They're REALLY cute.
My nails grow super fast.
I have night vision that adjusts in less than seconds.
I prefer the dark.
I LOVE my back scratched.
I love cats.
Check out these Pictures!!!
Well, that's all I really wanted to write about,

Harry Potter and- The Deathly Hallows?
Okay, if you've been wondering why it's called "Deathly Hallows" here's the deal:
It all starts from an old wizarding children' tale called "The Tale of the Three Brothers".
Here's how it goes:
There were once three brothers who were traveling along a lonely, winding road at midnight.
In the time, the brothers had reached a river to deep to wade through and to dangerous to swim across. However, these brothers were learned in the magical arts, and so they simply waved their wands and made a bridge appear across the treacherous water. They were halfway across it when they found they were blocked by a hooded figure.
And Death spoke to them. He was angry that he had been cheated out three new victims, for travelers usually drowned in the river. But Death was cunning. He pretended to congratulate the three brothers upon their magic, and said that each had earned a prize for having been clever enough to evade him. So the oldest brother, who was a combative man, asked for a wand more powerful than in any existence: a wand that must always win duels for it's owner, a wand worthy of a wizard who had conquered Death! So Death crossed to an elder tree on the banks of the river, fashioned a wand from a branch that hung there, and gave it to the oldest brother. Then the second brother, who was an arrogant man, decided that he wanted to humiliate Death still further, and asked for the power to recall others from Death.
So Death picked up a stone from the riverbank and gave it to the second brother, and told him that the stone would have the power to bring back the dead. And Death asked the third and youngest brother what he would like. The youngest brother was the humblest and the wisest of the brothers, and he did not trust Death. So he ask for something that would enable him to go forth without being followed by Death. And Death, most unwillingly, handed over his own Cloak of Invisibility. Then Death stood aside and allowed the three brothers to continue on their way, and they did so, talking with wonder of the adventure they had had, and admiring Death's gifts.
In due course the brothers separated, each with his own destination.
The first brother traveled on for a week or more, and reaching a distant village, sought a fellow with whom he had a quarrel. Naturally, with the Elder Wand as his weapon, he could not fail to win the duel that followed. Leaving his enemy dead upon the floor, the oldest brother proceeded to an inn, where he boasted loudly of the powerful wand he had snatched from Death himself, and of how it had made him invincible.
That very night, another wizard crept upon the oldest brother as he lay, wine-sodden, upon his bed. The theif took the wand and, for good measure, slit the oldest brother's throat.
And so Death took the first brother for his own.
Meanwhile, the second brother journeyed to his own home, where he lived alone. Here he took out the stone that had the power to recall the dead, and turned it thrice in his hand. To his amazement and his delight, the girl he had once hoped to marry, before her untimely death, appeared once before him. Yet she was sad and cold, separated from him as though by a veil. Though she had returned to the mortal world, she did not truely belong there and suffered. Finally the second brother, driven mad with helpless longing, killed himself as to truely join her.
And so Death took the second brother for his own.
But though Death searched for the third brother for many years, he was never able to find him. It was only only when he attained great age that the youngest brother finally took off the Cloak of Invisibility and gave it to his son. Then he greeted Death as an old friend, and went with him gladly, and, equals, they departed this life.
Well there you are. Those are the Deathly Hallows, the wand, the stone, the cloak, together,

Cartoon
Here's a cartoon I made on the computer!If you can't read what the cartoon says, please read this:
"You hurt Mr. Stuffy!" "Gee Sis, I didn't know you liked him any more." "Well I'm telling anyhow." "Wait! Just one question. Why are the spots on your wall moving?" "I dunno..." "And why are your doll's eyes the same color as the spots on your wall? I thought they were blue." "Hmmm..." "And why are the pink spots on your wall turning into Mr. Stuffy's eyes?" "AHHHHHHHH!!!" *Runs away* "Ahh, peace..." he says.

Great News
YES!
I've been itching to write about this place since the moment I left!!!
Okay... I WENT CEDAR POINT!!!
The friend I was talking about in the blog "Invader Zim" decided to let me have my 3rd sleepover there and then head out to cedar point!!!!
We slept over and in the morning got mcdonalds and went there and had a blast!!!
We were eating lunch at Cedar Point and we saw a small baby bunny walk out from beneath a bush! It came right on me and my friends foot, and we fed it elephant ear! One man actually had it eat out of the palm of his hand! I was in line for the Gemini when I changed my mind. But I went on the Disaster Transport, the Cedar Creek Mine Ride, the Woodstock Express, the ferris wheel, and this crazy spiny super fast thing.
Hope you can read my next blog, and once again, THANKS FOR READING HARRY POTTER UNIVERSE!
