Ahem, well, I know it's been awhile. I'm starting my second year of college TOMORROW. Insane right? ANYWAY, I'm mostly here to tell ya'll about this contest going on over at http://catchergoneawry.wordpress.com!! They're giving away 2 ARCs (Advanced Reader Copies) of Matched by Ally Condie. It won't be released until the end of November, so this is a great chance! Today is the last day to enter and it's really easy and free so, go on over and enter for your chance to win!
Cassia has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander's face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows with complete certainty that he is her ideal mate . . . until she sees Ky Markham's face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black.
The Society tells her it's a glitch, a rare malfunction, and that she should focus on the happy life she's destined to lead with Xander. But Cassia can't stop thinking about Ky, and as they slowly fall in love, Cassia begins to doubt the Society's infallibility and is faced with an impossible choice: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she's known and a path that no one else has dared to follow.
It sounds like such a great book! I can't wait to read it! If by chance you don't win, click on the link to Amazon and go pre-order it! But anyways, I have to go! I'll try to update more often, PROMISE. XD If you're not already, go follow me on twitter, I update there fairly often, even if it is only about 140 characters per update...
*breath* So.... Haven't talked to this journal in awhile. i've been a bit busy with my LiveJournal and College and homework and drinking soda to keep awake all day...
Blessings from the goddess Caffiena.
I'm happy though. I have Music, History, and English MWF, and Psychology and Art T/TH. =D
Hello all! *dusts off the couch and sits down* It's been awhile hasn't it? My computer is the stupidest thing in the history of ever!!! It likes do do things like freeze and go slow at random moments of weird and bad. It much sucks. I just finished the first section of my Chemistry core test! I think it went well! Yay me!
I feel awesome today! I finished story number eight of my theme 100 challenge (you can either view it under the " My 100 Theme Challenge" link or "Original Writings" link in he sidebar. I'm really starting to love this challenge.
I stayed up way too late last night waiting for Kaleb Nation (The Twilight Guy for those who don't know) to post the full cover and trailer for his novel Bran Hambric: The Farfield Curse (for more info visit BranHambric.com or KalebNation.com or TwilightGuy.com or His Twitter or His BlogTV or His Youtube) They are AWESOME!!!! I seriously can't WAIT for 9-9-09! I spent most of my time today waiting for his BlogTV show (which was here in case you didn't get that...) during which he gave away the first signed copy of the cover (not to me) and a phone call (not to me) and Melanie (Which you can find at Msquared Productions) gave away a phone call (not to me) and a signed poster (by her and Kaleb) of Hannah Montana and Zac Efron (also not to me...sensing a pattern?). I'm not mad. I don't tend to win things. But it is okay because I had much chocolate, soda, and popcorn during the show! MWAHAHAHA!!!
For those who didn't guess (those people being everyone...) The aforementioned book was Paper Towns by John Green (for more info visit the Vlogbrother's Channel on Youtube or Sparksflyup.com. But, for any BEDA-ers that haven't heard of him: Go shoot yourself in the foot... Shame on you.) But that isn't the most recent one I read anymore. I just read his other book An Abundance of Katherines. I have now read all of his books. He is Amazeringering as well!
I got some BEDA Buddies, so hi to them! I'll be reading blogs and stuff tomorrow cause it's Sunday and there's nothing to do on Sundays! So I saved it for then...
I must now go sleep and read Wuthering Heights... Not at the same time of course...

I got my Paper back today. It was Out of 100 and I got An 84. I Thought that my paper Was awesome. I tried to use a bit too long Of a quasi-Metaphor For the beginning Of my paper and he Didn't think it was to the Point enough... What is Though? What in life is Straight and To The point? I can't think Of Anything. It makes me Kind of Sad. I'll get Over it; it's Just one Paper. I have an A- in the class, thanks to that B, instead Of an A. I will Survive.
On a Happier Note: ♪Laaa!!♫
I found Out today that when We Run 2 laps every Morning in Dance 3, I run Faster than some of the Girls on the Track Team and I lap quite a Few People. This makes me happy.
I get to take a Nap soon! I are Muchly On the side Of Mega Tiredness and doth be Needings one. So Yay and Bedododo! For Nappage!
Hello People. I continue Feeling like A Nation. As I Get Little to No Comments on My BEDA posts, There I still have yet To Give Away, Five bucks to Those who guess What book I Just Read. It's Still going People...

Then you Unpush the Caps lock Key and continue typing...after you Fix What You just typed... That's what Happens when You Accidentally Push the caps lock key while Typing And Don't notice...
I am much Very Tired. I had to go To A Poetry discussion For a Robert Frost Poem at Seven and since I are Very Much tired, I shall not Finish My Homework and go To bed.
So, I'm blogging Rather late tonight, for many Reasons which I May eventually get to.
Idol was quite Interesting tonight, Don't you Think? I'm glad that The judges Saved Matt. I don't By any means think he Will Win, but I'm Still glad that They saved him. He's an alright Singer. My bet Is that he and Lil will just End up going home Next week.
My teacher did Decide to push Back presentations For The Great Gatsby until Monday and Tuesday. I'm unbelievably happy About this for the main Fact that who can get a presentation Ready by tomorrow If We have to finish the book Itself Tonight. We need freaking Time to process And Gather our thoughts on what angle To come At This from.
I shouldn't Be up this Late, and I really mean That. I stayed up Way Too late reading once Again. I began reading At Nine and I refused to Go to Bed Until I finished That Novel because, Let me Tell You, It's freaking awesome and Is A Masterpiece. Five bucks To anyone who Can guess which Book I speak of.
Anyways, I should Probably Go to bed Now. I need to Get Up at six To Go to school. Meh. I would Rather Skip Dance 3 altogether tomorrow, but Alas, I Cannot. I Have big assignments due Tomorrow that Either I Turn in or I fail The class and In thus Doing So, Don't graduate. I Pick graduate.
I must go Sleep, but First I must Go Put my Pants into the dryer or Else I'll have to go to School tomorrow in the Snow, butt Naked... That could Get Mighty Awkward.
Goodnight To everyone and Allveryone... Cool, I Just created a Word of Mass awesomeness.
Helloo! Okay so much is going on right now. I have a project for my college English class due...Friday...I think. I'm not sure whether the teacher will push it to Monday due to absences or not. He's thinking on it. We're supposed to finish to chapter eight tonight. I'll probably finish the whole book. I love The Great Gatsby. It's one of my favorite books.
I have notes due for Dance 3 on Thursday. I'm crossing my fingers that Crystal will let me borrow hers...I'm so behind. I'm actually doing pretty well in that class, even though it's PE, and PE and I aren't very good friends. I have a B+ I'm hoping I can keep it up.
Chem and Math I have no worries on. I've got MORE than an A in both classes. Government is pretty fun. I'm doing pretty good, A there too.
Speaking of my Gov. class, did anyone see Idol tonight? My Lord, it's getting better and better. Danny made me wanna cry... It was beautiful! He's on the list of my frontrunners along with Kris and Adam. I loved Adam tonight (as I do most all nights... Save the atrocious Ring of Fire debacle. Nobody's perfect.). I love his range. I can't hit some of the note he can and that's kind of weird since I'm a girl and a soprano (the choral part not the mafia). Wow. Impressive. PLUS! He's SOOOOOOOOOO Quentin!!!!! (If you're not Loora, you won't understand this. Do not ask.) Kris was awesome too. I didn't know he had it in him. I don't know about you guys, but I find it HOT when guys work the high notes...
Anoop impressed me for the first time this season, and I actually didn't like Allison tonight (weird flip-flop here). I didn't think it was a good song choice for her. I love that song and usually I feel something, but when she sang it? Nada. Not a good week for Allison and me. This is weird because I usually say this stuff about Anoop. Anoop did something weird. He shocked me. I LOVED him! He made me melt!! I felt something from his song for the first time.
Matt is awkward. That's all I really can say. He's gone, fairly steadily, down on my likes list. He's in MY bottom three this week. Along with Allison and Lil. I've never liked Lil. Her voice just rubs me wrong. I think it may be time for her or Matt to go. Allison's still going strong, and though she's still in my bottom three, I think she'll make it through. I agree with the judges that she's the only girl that has hope left in this competition. She can lounge with the frontrunners on the sofa.
Okay enough of that drama!
I have discovered something new about myself today.
I managed to (finally) get my hands on Paper Towns by John Green at my school library today. IT IS MINE!!! (until May fifth...) I brought it home, I put in on my bedside table... It sounds like it'll be awesome but, just one part of it creeps me out... Which is why it's being covered by a blanket right now.
Have you ever felt like you're being WATCHED?
I have discovered that faces on books creep me out. I feel like they're staring at me. I'M NOT A PERSON WHO LIKE ATTENTION!!! I DON'T LIKE TO BE LOOKED AT! So first, I flipped it over. Then rather than some strange girl, I got to have a dude in glasses stare at me (I love you dearly, John. Nerdfighters forever! BEDODODO! But still...). Finally I covered the thing with my blanket and I am free.
What's that? Oh, yes, I am overly paranoid. I hate to have doors open when I'm in a room by myself too...
WHY DO THEY PUT FULL FACES ON BOOKS?!?! It's creepy! CREEPY I SAY! I know I'm usually oblivious, but one would think I'd have noticed this before... Though now that I think about it, there might be a reason I keep things like that in stacks...
Anywho, I'm gonna try to make a dent in my notes and reading. Good night everyone!
I hate my computer. It's old and decrepid and it freezes MUCH MORE OFTEN THAN I'D LIKE! I have to rewrite my BEDA post because it froze before blogger saved. WHICH REALLY PISSES ME OFF!!
Me and Loora had a pajamma jammy jam last night! We had a princess movie night and watched Ever After and Enchanted while eating flavored wafer-like edible easter basket grass. Her basket was banana (banana? bananna? bannana? bannanna? Bannannanananannananna?) and since she doesn't like that flavor I got most of it! YAY! That stuff would have saved my parents a few days of cleaning every Easter if we had that when I was younger...
Her dog things that she'd bigger than she is and started bullying the next door neighbor's dog (who is like 6 times bigger than her yet ran away. Spike, you wuss! Lacey wouldn't hurt you!). It was cute! Lacey is adorable! She's a Lhasa-poo! They had to shave all her fur off because it was all matted when they got her, but it's growing back!
This morning I was checking my E-mail when Lacey came in and started whining when she saw Loora on the top bunk. I patted the bottom bunk and she came and cuddled with me for a couple hours. It was FUN! I love their dog!
Well, it's the last day of spring break, meaning that I have to go to school tomorrow! Meh. Tired. I need sleep now so I'm not totally drained tomorrow.
First and foremost, I must thank Maureen for this.
Hilarious, no?
I laughed so hard I almost wet myself.
Kudos to the great Maureen! Bedododo!!!
Yus! So, I woke up not too long ago! I remember I had a weird dream. But, I do not remember what it was about! I just remember being weirded out... THAT EVER HAPPEN TO YOU?
Sorry, had to stop for a minute! Just went to 7-11 and got sooooooda!!! I am now all sticky cause Mark's cherry Coke leaked ALL FREAKING OVER ME!!!
Anywayz! Not much more time to write today! I'm going to stay at Loora's howse!!! We're gonna have a much fun day with all the easter fun-ness and candy sugar-ness!!! YAY!
