Jolly: By Owen
Written by Mystical Darkness
“Jolly” is such a jolly word, isn’t it?  The mere mention of this jolly word makes me fell jolly inside!
            But why do I like it?  This is a question that has plagued my friends since we were young – which wasn’t very long ago, come to think of it.
          It is probably all Cithani’s fault.  Cithani’s my aunt – an ugly one at that.  When I was a baby, she would sing the Jolly Song to me:

         Jolly is my fav’rite word,
          Makes me smile    
          Jolly is my fav’rite word,
          Makes me smile


          After twelve hours straight of that, I was scared stiff and I basically had to worship the word “jolly”, or listen to another twelve hours!
          So, now at the age of sixteen, my jolly life has been plagued with Aunt Cithani’s song, and the word “jolly”. 
          You see – it isn’t my favourite word, just something brain washed into me when I was young.
          So I annoy you by saying “jolly” too much – don’t be too hard on me, because it’s not my fault.
