16 Going on 17 by Modern Music

Okay, so I want to apologize to everyone for basically falling off the face of the planet. I blogged, but I haven’t updated the site or commented my friends in a while. So thanks, Tiff, for reminding me to get my nose out of a book once and while and let everyone know that I’m not dead.

Speaking of books, I thought I’d give you and update about how the series is going. For those of you who didn’t catch my last blog, I’ve been reading Kate Brian’s Private series. Well, after the killer was uncovered, Reed decides to return to Easton and the next book picks up at the beginning of the next year. Cheyenne has taken over Billings house and has been on a major power trip every since. And to make matters worse, the Billings girls aren’t allowed to vote in new pledges because the new headmaster has chosen them already. Cheyenne is all about tradition, so she’s not going down without a fight. Meanwhile Reed isn’t too happy about Cheyenne’s osctrisizing some of the new girls in Billings or the fact that she’s trying to seduce her boyfriend Josh. Then when Cheyenne kills herself after being expelled, Reed can’t help but feel guilty. That and she keeps recieving e-mails from Noelle’s ex-boyfriend Dash that seem to suggest that he wants to be more than just friends with Reed. But just when Reed thinks that everything is falling apart, the girls of Billings elect Reed as thier new president. This opens a whole new world for Reed. She has everything at her finger tips. And I mean everything. Free money, free clothes, and free dirt on all her friends. And nothing stands in her way. And to make things better, Noelle is back. Reed starts to think things are looking up, but of course nothing lasts forever.

I hope I’m not boring you guys with all this book talk but they are just so good. On another note, I went shopping the other day. It was sort of a girl’s day out. It was me, my mom’s friend, and her sister and daughter. We’re all pretty close so it was awesome. Michele, my mom’s friend, is like my second mom and her sister Leslie and daughter Sydney are real cool. We ate a huge breakfast at IHOP. Thier were so many people there, I thought we would have to wait forever, but we got in in ten minutes. It was so good. The we went shopping in Atlanta and hit every store, but I only got a few things. I got a necklace at Charlotte Russe, some shoes from Old Navy, and a three tops on sale from Wet Seal. Then we stopped at Target on the home and I got a book called Remember Me? by Sophie Kinsella and the Twilight DVD. Woah, I guess that was more than I realized. I’ll try to post some pictures later for anyone who cares.

I’m Living on a Sugar High

Get Higher by Matt Nathanson

Okay, so I went to the  store today and Michelle was getting Sydney some Milk Duds and I decided I wanted some candy too. I was about to grab the regular gummy bear when I saw something better. They’re called Farley’s Sour Neon Night Crawlers ( I just really love that name) and I decided to get them instead because I just love sour candy. Now, I consider myself a fairly intellegent person so I actually do know the definition of the word sour, unlike the people who make this candy. This stuff is super sweet. They look just like any other sour gummy worms. But I guess instead of sour crystals, those are sugar crystals. I mean, these things are so sweet, that I think my teeth should probably start rotting right about now. My orthodontist is gonna love this.

Speaking of my orthodontist, I have to get braces come summer. It is going to seriously suck. I was suppose to have gotten them already, but my mom told me I could post-pone it until this summer because I’m going to be in a play next month and I don’t want to play an undercover FBI operative with braces. It’s actually a really funny play, and it’s pretty random too, which I love. It’s about all these guests in a restraunt on murder night who all are just sitting around waiting for someone to die in the first act and then in the second act, just about everyone dies, or fakes their death. It’s super hilarious. I avtually get to ounch one of my friends in the stomache after just kinda sitting there for over an hour talking. My character is supposed to be this rich older lady who just sort of tends to everyone else’s business and then at the end you ffind she’s really a cop and I get to arrest the bad guy, who actually didn’t do anything except tick everyone off. But hey, I guess if you can get a permit for murder, you can arrest someone just for being irritataing.

Has anyone ever read Kate Brian’s Private series? I have been reading them recently and I love, love, love them! They aren’t just these books about rich prep school girls who sit around talking about how their life sucks because they’re having a bad hair day. They are actually have a good story line. Like sometimes I find myself thinking I wish I could go to Easton and become a Billings Girl. In the first four books, the lead character, Reed, starts at a new school called Easton Academy and is determined to become a Billings Girl. Being a Billings Girls means a secure future and a spot at the most prestigous sorority-like dorm on campus. But Billings house is invitation only, so to become one of them she has to make friends with the most elite and powerful girls on campus. Eventually Reed gets all she could have ever hoped for and more, but she starts to wonder whether it was all worth it when her MIA boyfriend, Thomas, is suddenly found murdered. Reed eventually finds herself falling in love with Thomas’s best freind Josh. Now she has to deal with the guilt of her feelings for Josh and the fact that Thomas’s killer is still out there. But then Josh is arrested for his murder, but Reed knows he didn’t do it. But that pegs the question, “Who did do it?”. Can Reed handle the fact that the murderer might be right up under her nose? You’ll have to read the books to find out. Trust me, they’re well worth your time.

My Life Would Suck Without You by Kelly Clarkson

New Layout!! Whoo hoo!! It took me forever to get the coding just the way I wanted it. It’s still a little off on my non-wordpress pages, but I decided to worry about that later. Okay, so due to my new addiction to iCarly and its randomness, this post is going to be completely random. I’m going to answer some random question I found on Delusionaire.

What was the scariest movie you saw? What happened?

Evil Dead. It’s my friend Jessica’s favorite movie so I barrowed it from her and it scared the shiz outta me. I couldn’t even watch the whole thing.  The worst part was when the girl got stabbed in the foot with a pencil and her skin started turning black and then she become all zombiefied.

You’ve woken up on an unknown planet. Where are you? What’s going on? How did you get here?

I’m shipwrecked on the planet Zorbon. I have amnesia and I meet the planet’s princess and we become best friends. I marry her brother and we become sisters. Eventually her father dies a tragic death and then we all three rule kingdom together.

Make a list of your favorites.

Okay. Food: Cannelloni, Movie: Becoming Jane, Colors: Pink, Purple, and Black, Potato Chips: Salt and Vinegar, Shoes: My Pink Crocs, Thing to do: Swimming, Song: My Life Would Suck WIthout You by Kelly Clarkson, Wordpress Plugin: Now Reading

You’ve been locked in a room. All the windows are locked and shut. There are two tables, a sofa, and a computer with no internet. How do you get out?

I use the giant hammer that I taped under the sofa to bust a hole through the wall.

Got a favorite restaurant? What’s so great about it?

Okay, there’s this great little Italian resteraunt where my uncle lives called Georgios. The atmosphere makes you feel just like you’re in Italy. They have this dish called the Tour of Italy. You get a little lasagna, a little chicken parmesan, and some Spaghetti a la Georgios. It’s delicious. And even if you just want to feel like you’re in Italy but still want to eat American, you can order some pizza and curly fries.

Peace,
Love,
and Randomness
