September 1, 2009 - The Departure of the Crayola Express

If you have ever read Harry Potter, best thing since sliced bread - side note, sliced bread was once banned from the United States because the government believed that making weapons was more important... but the entire country complained and the ban was lifted in 3 days - anyway... Harry Potter is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

On September 1st every year, the Hogwarts Express departs from Platform 9 and 3/4 and makes its way to Hogwarts. Well... after discovering that I have exactly 365 crayons in my possession a few days ago... I decided to start this blog. A blog about crayons... and my life I guess.

Everyday will reveal a different crayon (though not always a different color, but a very individual crayon), a different picture, and perhaps a different story.

So today, the Crayola Express departs from Platform... 365? And the color of the day is blue-green. Quite beautiful in my opinion. Today is also my last official day of summer as my first day of my senior year in high school is tomorrow. I'm old. So my crayons and I are on a journey together now. So in the wake of my last day of summer... I drew a blue-green picture.
