This one's for you Erin!!   

I eat and eat all day long
As I sing my happy hippo song
They say I'll get fat and really big
How can that be? I'm skinny as a twig!
Food is my passion, its what I live for
but one day I won't fit through the door
It's ok though, I'll have food
So I'll aways be in a good mood
Maybe I should go on a new and exciting diet
more protein, no carbs, I don't think I want to try it!
If I get fat, here's what I'll do
I'll call my doctor and he'll tell me true
What I can do to lose the weight
That sucks, I dont like it...no more cake!!
Oh well, I'll just be fat and then I'll get old
No worries though,cuz with this much fat, I'll never get cold
So all in all, I'll always eat
no matter what I love my meat
I love my sugar and brownies too
So, as I sing my song,who'll join me? Will you??

I wrote this about how I always eat and how people tell me I'm going to get fat...well, I weigh about 90 pounds...I don't think that'll be happening any time soon! Anyways, Erin was making fun of me saying the same things... so I wrote a poem and dedicated it to her...Besides that, I figured we could all use a good laugh around here. Thanks for reading!!

seems like Erin just has this ability to give all of us nicknames.  I thought yours was jello? Now its hippo?  Well, that's better than what she calls me "Psycho"    sup with that weirdo    Jess, just make sure you hand me some of that meat (only if it's pork or beef) unless you mean something else   just kidding   Well, if it's chicken hand it this was right away and I'll help ya with it...ha

You suck, if I eat a pound of food I will gain two pounds!  Not really, I don't really know that but oh well.  I'm going to go eat some ice cream or something now

I like the title.....hippo!!!!!!
Well yea, the poem was humurous. UHhhhhhh..... you weigh 90lbs and people say you're going to get fat? Ok, who the heck do you hang out with?......either they are all anorexic chicks who weigh 33lbs or ....uhhh......or yea! Ok so i don't know..... you couldn't get fat to me and if you did, big whoop...fat people rock!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Dopey, since I know how you are sometimes (no offense...just saying) I will take what you said with a light heart. First Off, the only one of my friends who has ever been anorexic is me...so I resent your statement about them being "a bunch of anorexic chicks who weigh 33lbs" also, They tell me I'm going to get fat as a joke. LoL It gets old...instead of fat jokes from people I get skinny jokes...you'd laugh yer ass off if you heard some of 'em. anyways, no my friends aren't anorexic and they are joking about my weight. Besides that I don't knwo what else to say except for I'm glad you thought it was funny because that is what it was intended on...< !signature-->
