Well, you asked for it, so here goes ;3

You see, it's something of a long story. My family was at a fair once and my brother and I begged our parents to take us to the animal rides - they had an elephant and a camel that you could ride. I wanted to ride the camel, and my brother wanted the elephant. However, since two people could ride the elephant at once, my parents made me ride the elephant instead of the camel *heartbreak* Ever since I have been sadly camel deprived.
However, it wasn't until later years that I realized what a unique beast the camel was - what with their almost bird like necks and snouts and their long, gangly legs and that barrel of a mid-section - they aren't exactly the most graceful or majestic. Yet they always hold their heads up in that cocky, devil-may-care fashion with their lips curled up in that arrogant smirk, swaggering around in like it's nobody's business but their own. Unlike other beasts of burden, they can't be dominated - they're well known for being ornery and strong willed. A camel may serve but they aren't subserviant - when they don't want to do something they just lay down and refuse. I suppose I like them for their personalities as much as their looks - they're unique, and that appeals to me |3 *plays the camel anthem and waves the camel flag*

Is that any way tah address yer Captain, sailor!? I expect ah full salute! Now swab the deck! >;D
