Gallery Name: Bounce... Bounce... Bounce...
Owner: rosabellk
Description: You see a small figure in the distance, rapidly approaching. It's a bird... it's a plane... it's... it's... rosabellk on a Big n Bouncy Toy! You watch in awe as rosabellk dismounts his royal steed. He must truly be King of the Bouncy Balls. Hark; he speaks: "Hello! It is I, rosabellk, winner of the Gallery Spotlight award (I'm assuming I am if you're reading this). Isn't this a wonderful place? My gallery is dedicated to the most bestest of all toys: the bouncy ball. Though often taken for granted, a high quality ball can provide hours of enjoyment for anyone. This shop is a collection of every bouncy ball known to Neopia; from the ball's humble beginnings to its present state of glory. Balls straight from the toy shop, still smelling wonderfully rubbery, balls that have been lovingly played with and passed down through the ages; even *sniff* balls that were bounced just a bit too hard, may they rest in peace. You may be wondering, "rosabellk, whatever gave you the idea to make a ball gallery?" Even if you weren't, you are now, because I MADE you think it! Ha! That's the kind of awesome power the bouncy ball has. But anyway, I'll tell you why I chose this path:

*Ahem*: "One day, when I was a wee lad, I was sitting on the porch of my Neohome playing with a yellow bouncy ball, when it hit me: I really wanted some ice cream. As I walked inside, I realized that fridges hadn't been invented yet (this was Year Two, for crying out loud!), so I went to the food shop. As I sat with my bowl of the tasty treat that's fun to eat (double fudge brownie. That stuff is addicting!), I fell asleep. And I had a dream. A very... um, shall we say, unique dream. It must have been the combination of the strange set of circumstances; the hot day, the ice cream, the food shop Chia standing over me and demanding that I pay; that set off this scene in my neurons, because, I'm telling you, it was one weird dream. I was being chased by a huge glob of jelly, probably from some place that doesn't exist, when a Big n Bouncy Toy jumped in front of it to save my life, putting itself in great peril. I nursed the ball back to health, at which time it told me the secret of life: -link blocked-. Isn't that amazing? Yup. It's that easy. -link. blocked-. So simple, yet so elegant. But anyway, at this point I woke up to the sound of the food Chia demanding that I pay RIGHT NOW, for Fyora's sake, because he wouldn't hesitate to call the cops. I threw some neopoints on the counter and ran out of the store, with the Chia still yelling, (what's this "exact change" thing I keep hearing about?) (I use parentheses a lot) and returned to my Neohome. I picked up the bouncy ball I had been playing with just moments ago, and the room filled with light. A warm wind arose. A voice called to me. "start a bouncy ball gallery already! This story is way too long and is actually quite boring!" I returned to reality with a jolt. 'OK,' I said, and so I started up my gallery that very same day. The end." *cricket* *cricket* *ZzzZzzzzzzZzZZZzzzz* Oh, come on, it wasn't THAT bad!

Wow. I've written a novel here. Anyway, if you're still awake, why not look around? Feel free to play with the balls; after all, that's what they're for! :D" The figure recedes into the distance, calling, "Thank you for letting me test the limits of your patience (as well as the limits of the size restriction on this submission page)!" With that, he is gone. There goes a truly great man. And his bouncy ball.
