Wonderland



Alice: I've often seen a cat without a grin, but i've never seen a grin without a cat

i'm pretty sure i've read Alice in Wonderland when i was younger, but i dont seem to remember the story. Now i realise its probably because most of it doesnt make sense, like how killing time warrants the death penalty (off with their heads!) and gives you an eternal tea party.

Lewis Carroll is credited as one of the authors to popularise literary nonsense, where the story is grammatically correct and everything, but does not make logical sense. not sure why i am drawn to it, maybe its the whole perspective thing.

Wonderland is an awesome place, because it is normal to be not normal. Everyone, from the mouse to the White queen is crazy, and thats why its so nice to watch,haha. Too bad the show ended up with the very unoriginal battle for the crown theme, i'm sure they could have thought of a more creative reason to kill the Jabberwocky!
