In the Night Kitchen Review

I've just read it out loud while recording it for YouTube because it's been part of Banned Books Week, and yes, to get people attracted to my upcoming web series, I have to do Season 0 aka the pilot season starting with this book. This reminded me of my very own childhood so much, I recently learned about the dedication page saying, "For Sadie and Philip". That was the author's parents because they were part of the Lost Generation or something. On the other hand, to make a children's book with a dedication page saying, "For David and Cammie", I guess they were boomers, for they are godly and were raised Catholic. I was born normal and a millenial, but then was diagnosed with autism at a young age in case you don't know me. I understand how this book was made is because the author Maurice Sendak took inspiration from the roaring '20s, mostly from Nemo. (No, not the fish y'all know of. The boy in bed!) I also learned way back in the early 20th century, Nemo was printed originally as comic strips. For example:

www.comicstriplibrary.org

See? Does that look antique to you? I wonder if Little Nemo in Slumberland is either in public domain, or is it copyrighted? From October 5, 1905 - July 23, 1911, Little Nemo in Slumberland was first published under New York Herald. It was renamed to The Land of Wonderful Dreams and ran under New York American from 1911 - July 26, 1914. When the original creator is back to the Herald, the title was switched back to normal and for the last time, it ran from August 3, 1924 to December 26, 1926. Little Nemo definitely is the public domain character since January 2005 in the EU.

I have yet to watch the anime film of Little Nemo for the review afterwards.

Now, onto the story.

It all starts with Mickey waking up to the thump of something. He shouted, "Quiet down there!" and then, he magically fell down into the night kitchen, even though he was all of the sudden at some point, near the beginning of the fall, the clothes were removed, exposing his heavenly naked body. In the night kitchen, he fell into the batter, and all of the bakers were chanting while stirring up until it's really smooth like icing. While they were about to something something something something I dunno, the grey smoke puffs up and Mickey goes off to save the day by making a dough airplane and flew to the milk bottle. Mickey dives down with the liquid measuring cup and he reached the surface to pour the milk into the batter. The bakers were very satisfied with the work of foodies. When morning comes, Mickey acted like a rooster and yes, he went back to bed, knowing it was all a dream. We could bake the morning cake every breakfast because we're bookworms!

The challenge: "The book upset many librarians and adults because its young protagonist, Mickey, was depicted in the nude. Many librarians censored the book by painting diapers over the boy’s genitals, and in some cases, the book was even burned."

In the 1990s, it was the number 21 in the 100 Most Frequently Challenged Books of the Decade, but went down constantly to #24 in the 2000s.

I don't have to worry about diapers/shorts/jeans because I could see him being depicted naked as a child and I spotted him still today. It's still alive in my mind! Thank the LORD God for preserving it for future generations to come! These censors was, is and will be depressed.

The review: This book is such a classic and it's very good, some of you will know what went wrong when it comes to censorship. I guarantee you should check it out at your local library to discover what some of you were missing, and for your child(ren), explain why is it challenged with caution because the world's such a scary place to be, but safer in some locations where the freedom remains strong.

Friday Night Out

Dear online diary,

Today is what I've called it the TXT day of everything. I declare the national texting day as September 18 of every single year. I could tell you that the concert is worth having the fun of becoming more spiritually refreshed and you could see the dark lights, the music I've sometimes never heard before is what is fresh in my mind and also, we got to know each other before. So a 10/10 is probably the best night out ever... never had I been to a concert with my friends before, but oh well. I guess it's alright.

All of the Conflict Schedule Drama! (In Other Words: Fall Open House Gave Me the Time Management Issues)

Dear online diary,

Mother suggested that leadership class is a great idea to me to handle with, but Dad said I cannot go to leadership class until second or third year in college. I might not count for this school year or two, but I have to wait until I turn 21 in order to let it happen in a couple years. I have to accept work and school as if it were even, and not to be overweighed by whatever conflicts happen... clubs: always stressing me out and it took like forever to let the school year to end (which is crazy). I have to commit leadership on my own purpose to not only will the student affair requirement have to deny, but also, I will miss out on all of the college whatnot by itself. I already read "Secrets About Guys - Secrets That Shouldn't Be Secret" by Grace Dove before, and I have yet to read "Were You Raised by Wolves? And Seven Other Crucial Questions to Ask the One You Just Might Marry" by Toben Heim as part of my very own Love Quest reading curriculum.

In prior experience, I had enjoyed leadership classes in youth group for two courses in one year. I did not take any of the leadership classes in formal education, which it's okay. Not everybody gets to be the leader until the next generation or two rises. I do have to be responsible for the schedule, but let's say it should be a priority and not something that's left behind in the dust, so some 2-year old gets to throw in some crayons to doodle on the clean sheet of paper with boring blocks of text for business and let the parents feel stressed out, for they need to get a life by simply ordering adult coloring books from Amazon and reprint some text to store up high for the very next morning. My brain is just lazy to change plans... who cares about interest?! Nobody gets to be involved in any of the clubs. Thank God! They had their priorities straightened out because of homework, classes and stuff.

My plan for the future: I will start my very own blogger's club brought to you by banned and challenged books, bad fanfiction, the blogs and vlogs we love (e.g. Wagner Bunch, Vlog Brothers), and the infamous blog of all time: right here and right now! Everybody has to get involved by simply... let's say you sign up for Google, take Blogger as part of your day and literally do your blog by yourself on an often basis! Going to Blogger in Google for the first time is easy and nothing less.

Also, for the bloggers' club, we love to critique DCOMs starting from HSM and all the way up to Radio Rebel because these things are for preps and we are not all girly useless. We're equal, MCR rocks and we love to react to stuff online. Other than that, thank pop culture (btw, Ms. America) for the suggestions for the continuation of the plot for Time Bomb. And I am all ready to see Miss World livestream on desktop mode by December 19, 2015 (if you don't have cable)! I will be prepared to watch every single Hannah Montana, every single Toddlers & Tiaras and every single 19 Kids and Counting ever made in order all-in-one. As I have yet to critique the entire HSM trilogy, I still want to critique Spy Kids: The Complete Saga (because I'm not looking forward to the fourth installment - thank the LORD, I did not get to see this after all of these last four years, for I am too old for the 2000s gadgets galore from the one and only Mr. Roger Rodriguez!). I better have the three lists of episodes prepared for checking it all off by black pen for simply printing off of the Internet, just so to get on with it until the end. Oh, surprises are surprises. Don't you just love to be like a true shadhardblogger? You don't have to be the next Tara Way!

If you want to be my follower, please do subscribe to my DeviantArt profile or like us on Google+. I would love to read comments down below and I will have the feedback taken care of, so thank you all for reading and here's one more thing before you go!

You guys have an awesome, splendid, amazing, superb, extraordinary day, night, weekend, whatever happens at anytime and anywhere for you and I'll talk to you in the next post. Kudos! :)

9/11 Chill Out Post (Why Buy the Autism Speaks Products Anywhere Else?!)

Welcome back, everyone! I am back from ASN Orientation... so I give you the bad news: the auditioning for me will wait until Tuesday because the auditioner was sick and she'll have to get well soon. But the good news is that I'm all jingled up for the bazaar sale preparations by simply drinking the peppermint mocha. Is it too early for the holidays? I don't think so, you still got plenty of time for holiday shopping - you don't have to wait until Black Friday. Go to www.amazon.com now to shop for holiday gifts, whether it's for your spouse, your parents, your children or for your friends and co-workers! On the Autism Speaks Merchandice E-Shop, I had just found the snowflake wrapping paper. When it says "holiday and birthday", both days take place in the winter - December 25 (Christmas Day) and my birthday (January 21). It's personally perfect! You should see this for yourself in the link below, and I highly recommend you can buy it if your birthday is in the wintertime.

Another thing to look at if you're intrested in writing some thoughts, try for a special physical copy to own today.

If you look for the T-Shirts to make on your own other than the official company already taken care of, I suggest you can go to customink.com.

If you look for smartphone cases and more to customize, now it's the time to visit @ caseable.com.

That's all we have for now.

Something Much of the Difference Between the Medical and Social Models

The difference between the medical model and social model is that there's the contrast of normalcy and acceptance. Normalcy means trying to act like the able-bodied people from most of worldwide, while acceptance is support and awareness of the neurodiversity. Flaws are in the medical perspective, it was meant to improve the weakness while in social justice, it was defined as if nobody's a Mary-Sue or a Gary-Sue, but rather, everyone's a Lammily Sue to be perfectly honest. A perfect world in the medical perspective is people, having long ways to go from the tip of the iceberg, trying to add more information, and inventing new technology as well as coming up with their own terms. A perfect world in the social model is to accept everybody, even the LGBT, but anyways, I really don't care about the six-colored rainbow flag and everything that's against the rules of God the Trinity. I got it all written down by far in my creative expositional book called "Where It All Began".

Well, it's 'nuff said! Stay tuned for the Good Charlotte song I remember as a child.

You guys do have an awesome, splendid, amazing, superb, extraordinary day, and I'll talk to you whether I come up with or something. Kudos! :)

The Worst Advice We've Ever Heard About Literature

Censorship! I hate limitations because it's making me feel annoyed and it drove me nuts like crazy. Why read a banned book or read bad fanfiction? That'll open your mind up a gazillion times more than television, Hollywood and social media because it'll tell you the realities of life, death and everything else in between, as well as fictional as they may seem. Please let me know what you've read in the comments below by October 3rd! I highly recommend you give me a favor for the replies back after you checked your spelling, vocab and grammar for posting. Here are the links down below for the suggestions for two and a half weeks ahead:

The Books of the 2000s Plus 2010s So Far!
The Frequently Challenged Books of the '90s (The Decade I Was Born)
The Frequently Challenged Books of the 2000s (My Decade of Growing Up)
The "Infamous" Classics of the 20th Century
The Banned and Challenged Books of 1994-95
The Archived Editions from Illinois Library Association
PABBIS Complete List
The Latest Edition of All Time by Far!
The Fanfic Zone Part 1 (According to the Wikia About Fanfiction)
The Fanfic Zone Part 2 (The Media Experiment Was Taken Care Of!)

There you have it folks! That's all I have for today, so kudos to you! Check these links out while you listen to the song I enjoyed a few years back as a young teen and still lovin' it by ear and heart.

And now... Another Wordless Wednesday!

I Thought I Stopped Living in the Angry Days

Gosh, stress is kinda moodier yesterday and I just can't audition for the Worship Group until Friday. It's okay... I was somewhat emotional and my heart was not ready yet because all I have to do is to put distractions aside (in which I really did it in one day and counting), but still, last night, I turned in Assignment 1 online. It talks about my autism backstory and my thoughts for two articles: the "sneak preview" of NeuroTribes in the blindness of having me as Elsa being locked away in the room and everyone else with autism as lost children, or those suffered from disease and sickness, or those who were taken away to wolves and pumas; altogether they are all myths of A-U-T-I-S-M! I learned that Asperger's (ASD) was named after Hans Asperger, an Austrian clinician. Leo Kanner on the other hand, studied those who severely suffered from the condition of autism. The other article talks about the history of autism, from the moment the word "autism" was coined in 1908 by a psychiatrist named Eugen Bleuler to the '70s and '80s where it has become better well-known in knowledge to even the 2010s where today's ratio is that 1 in 68 people have autism.

I know that I got to know my disability a bit better, but other than that, I am a lifelong learner for whatever happens.

So I'm sorry for the inconvenience, here's something you enjoy! I hope this inspires the post for the day...

I don't own the pic! The Shadow Saga of mine and everything in the works of shadhardblogger fully supports this! #autismawarenes #autismsociety #autismribbonlogo

I am depressed yesterday... I'm really not okay!

Anyways, I felt better today. You have a great day! :)

Hey! I'm Back from the Summer Vacation

Sorry about over the month's hiatus, because I already got distracted due to family activities, one last time @ VBS and all of that jazz. I had lived in these angry days... just hold on for a sec:

See? That's stress when it comes to music.

Anyways, look on the bright side Nat: you've got college ahead of you - there's alot of new people you meet, and then, you got some questions, so you want answers in class times.

But however, when independence is just on the horizon, I have to be better prepared for whatever happens: I just want to turn in Dog Sense by John Bradshaw after reading it: over 300 pages of dog exposition plus about 17 pages of notes in the back, so I can get going with Banned Books Week in participation to have the sake of freedom come fight censorship and "parental advisory nostalgia shenanigans".

Just literally, I'll note to you when I need to:

• The college bookstore will re-open after Labor Day
• ASN Orientation will take place Sept. 8-11 @ 1-5 pm on N209
• Open House will take place on September 15 @ 10 am - 2 pm, outdoors next to the Student Union Building in the Fountain Courtyard
• Fall Quarter starts on Sept. 21
• Classes in my perspective begins Sept. 22
• Work MWF and School (college) TueTh (in Fall Quarter of 2015)

You have a great Labor Day weekend and I will talk to you whether I post. BYE! :)
