mmmmkay....

*frownyface* i finished the da vinchi code...... after it got over the bogus about mary magdalene for the most part, it was much much better.... and ONCE AGAIN i was fooled by the guy who seemed so nice........ dude........ i'm getting scared... if i judge book characters so badly, how am i going to do judging real people?


started a book dragon.... and and and it has pictures. it's awesome..... i asked my 'rentals for a dragon for my birthday..... i think i just got an eyeroll........ :(

i really want a dragon tho..................... i might have to steal one...... i have no clue from where tho.........


i might read sense and sensibility....  that's highly doubtful tho......... seeing as i loathe jane austen....... deeply loathe. she's a tad napful.


i dislike this week's theme....... i hate themes in books as much as i hate essays........... i wish that they both would die a horrible fiery death (essays and themes).


alright........... i'm ready for the end now....... really ready, cos i can't stand timing myself reading........ my times aren't even all the time i spend reading..... i read way more than i post..... it's just the stuff that i really don't care to read for english. :D

putting the cannibal in cannibal sandwiches

ROMANS 12:19 --- Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.

i decided that since the main theme in sweeney todd seemed to be revenge, it was a good topic.  i felt really horrible after reading it..... and not because the londonfolk were eating people. i felt horrible that sweeney todd was tricked by mrs. lovett, and that in trying to get what they wanted, everything tumbled down around their ears.  

my friend courtney told me that the sweeney todd story is based on a true story. she didn't know details, but some guy was selling really tasty people sausages.......... ew.

revenge is a dish best served cold.  i believe that in this case, it's best served piping hot and with a nice beverage....... and to unsuspecting people. :D




ps.... i stake my claim on pride and prejudice and zombies for the book list..... anyone who lists it will be frowned upon.

freaking out!!!!

i've officially seen the deathly hallows part 2 first trailer like 5 times...... in one night....... i'm sooooooo excited...... words do not suffice.

um............ still need a passage........... google tiiiime!!!!!

are we done yet?

i guess i know the answer, but i really would love to be able to read on my own again.... without paying attention to how much time i'm spending reading. 
the project has proved again and again how much time i spend with my nose in a book...... too much...... i mean more than i should be spending......... it's a love-hate thing......... i love to read, but hate myself for reading like all the time.

i started sweeney todd..... why? cos the thing that was annoying me was the whole religious theme in the da vinchi code...... i guess it was kinda messing with me, i decided to leave it alone for a bit and read about the demon barber of fleet street. that one would be easy to put a song to, cos it's a musical..... but i have to come up with a bible passage...... *sets out to google* i'll find a good one.... otherwise i'll return to the da vinchi code. :D

boredom....

it's really hard to take a guy seriously when he has poo on his shirt.......

well that's awkward...........


anyways....... i finished girl in the arena, which totally sucked compared to what i was imagining...... i was imagining more fighting..... it was pretty boring.
i was actually ready to start sense and sensibility, but i felt to icky to start.

so......... i have decided......

i like anime....... it's a recent habit..... sit down to my government sheet and some anime. bleach mostly....... which is why i'm reading bleach manga too.and i found out that. it's one of those things tho, that i'll give up sooner or later..........
watching a movie now......... it's a strange movie............ honestly.

almost forgot........

yeah... loving the da vinchi code.......... i read a lot..... i'll post time and stuff tomorrow....... which is only cos i'm being lazy.... besides..... i have more than enough time.......... :D

my book in pictures

so i was super excited to see that grace kelly's wedding was one of the top searches on bing images. i love grace kelly. but then i had to search for images for my book...... i'm currently reading four? um..... john belushi is dead; pride and prejudice; the da vinchi code; girl in the arena; and scott pilgrim (but i'm nearly done with volume 4 so i'll be ready with bleach 2). dude...... that's five. 

i decided that you all should get some images from each...... i mean if i have five from one, that's good enough, but i'm reading 5 books.... so automatically i decide to add more pictures. enjoy!!!!

GIRL IN THE ARENA

  yeah.... i know it's the cover.... i thought it would give a taste of the story.

trad costumes.....

lots of rules..... for being the daughter of a gladiator and being one too.

battle for the people..... it's a fun event...... but the one guy gets killed.

this is the problem.... at least as far as i can tell..... i'm only in chapter 8 or something.

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE

i couldn't help it..... i had to add the zombie one

this should make reading a whole lot easier..... but mind the arrows........ mr. darcy is NOT the aunt of lady catherine...

ps.... i stole this from deviantart

um...... natalie disapproves of this delightful image from pride and prejudice and zombies..... silly mr. darcy getting kicked around when he proposed to elizabeth.

THE DA VINCHI CODE

er....... images...... right......

naaaaaaaaaaa this is enough to chew on for right now.

closer.....

after spending much time eating today...... i read and read and read.... i managed to finish angels and demons. i now understand how it can captivate people........ it was absolutely amazing. i loved it. i didn't predict who the bad guy behind the whole thing was, not at all. the whole thing was grand. i recommend this book for those who don't freak out at strange and rather gross things....... like blood spurting out of the stabbed lungs..... icky. totally gross. nasty. anyhoo...... it was a good book.

and now........

So, my goals have been surpassed....... 'nuff said.
enjoying p&p&z muchly. even if it disgusts natalie. i really like that elizabeth tried killing mr. darcy (highlight of my day). and there was even a picture!!!!!! i think that it would have been an exciting scene to add to the play..... i'd be entertained by seeing kelcey attempting to kill josh....... i mean even if mr. darcy isn't as horrible as we are supposed to imagine.... the play really didn't have much substance in the whole after elizabeth gets proposed to, except for a bit of remorse in misunderstanding.

bytheway.... mr. darcy has a funny name....... fitzwilliam..... i mean in case i haven't mentioned how funny his name is already, i had to mention it............

times and such are being posted asap.

bad day.......

thought today was thursday, and i also almost fell asleep this morning...... i never sleep in class...... honest!!!! my leg fell asleep tho....... i nearly stood up to get the feeling back.

i'm feeling all nappy now, time for bed i guess...... english project is being an epic fail......... i really am mad at this project.

zombies do make jane austen better, but not totally better, it still has that jane austen overtone, no matter how much elizabeth starts blushing at mr. darcy...... when he says something awkward........... which is a few times......... mr. darcy has a funny name.... one of the weird ones that i think would be better as a last name....... fitzwilliam.......... it makes me laugh....... and poor charlotte........ i keep thinking poor becky when i read about the um.......... zombification (drat..... i hope no one was expecting the main characters to escape unscathed or who had planned on reading this).  i catch some lines that i recognize from the play, but i'm waiting to read something that says that the play was wrong..... i mean i know that some stuff is totally faked from the original, but i'm trying to think what the play lied about.

i have no opinion on some of the characters, but i really dislike caroline bingley, she's evil..... as is mrs. hurst.

elizabeth is more violent..... she was going to cut mr. darcy's throat before the unmentionables showed up. it was exciting. and she nommed on a heart. it was gross.

i'm in for it now....

i've really gone off the deep end...... i checked out sense and sensability. but i also checked out the sea monsters one too...... just to make up for sense and sensability. i only checked it out so that i would know what was happening in the sea monsters one. i'm also going to reread pride and prejudice. if i die from reading these, alyssa gets my harry potter, katie gets my flute, kelsey and marta can fight over my locker, and whatever else i really don't care about. anyways.... i hope to survive... i survive every other time i think i'm going to die. :D

but of course, according to alex, zombies make everything better, and he should know this best, seeing as he lives on zombie road, home of the zombie sighting. :D :D :D there you go, alex.

halfway done at this moment in time

i'm proud to say that i'm about halfway done with pride and prejudice and zombies: dawn of the dreadfuls. it's absolutely delightful.... was gonna say tasty, but thought better, seeing as the zombies eat people and themselves..... icky icky icky, but i like the fact that it's not as totally proper as actual jane austen.  unfortunately, i keep imagining mrs. bennet having hannah's voice...... in this bit, hill is actually mrs. hill, and i'm laughing cos bret was hill..... the old guy....... i'm actually going to reread er... skim the original after i finish the parody to see if hill is a female character there too. i'm immensely enjoying this book and must finish it cos of this.  i find it much easier to read a book if it's interesting and delightful.

anyhoo....

i nearly checked our sense and sensability and sea monsters. i had it in my hands even, no... i had it in my stack. but then i decided that i should really read the stack of books that i DO have and not start any scary sea monster novels of which i have not read the book that it is based upon. i did however, check out pride and prejudice and zombies. man.... i bet that would have been a much more exciting show that the boring ol' pride and prejudice with no scene changes play that i saw last weekend. :D no offense guys.... but the scenery was napful at best. it could have used some other scenes. :D :D :D

i also have a coffee cookbook..... which leads me to ask if cookbooks count as reading time...... i would like to know.....

hey look!!!

this week was pitiful in the books. i read several volumes and was in hate with the evil chick in one. i'm enjoying angels and demons immensly, and not just because the bad guys are trying to blow up the vatican. i miss star wars, because i liked the sci-fi part. :D :D :D :D :D
i think now is a good time to rant....... stupid chapel with high school musical!!!!! i hate high school musical, and even tho headmaster zefron would tell us that we're all in this together, sometimes i want to strangle the smiling face of the boss zefron poster. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i really feel that the catchyness of showtunes is to be loathed.....well, just the horrible showtunes. i love certain showtunes.... but mostly in small doses, and none of that singyhappy high school musical type.



and now..... for the latest updates!

lalalalala la la la lalalalalala la

book sites.... does this mean book reviews or book selling? prolly book reviews..... i'm looking..... hold your horses



haha.... booklamp.org
i dislike it cos it's not really comprehensive....... it has restraunt at the end of the universe, but not hitchhiker's guide. it has only a few books, and mostly adult books..... but not a whole lot of those either, at least by the authors i read...... and i thought i read normalish authors.... guess not. :D here's the review then... at least for this one.

i hate everything!!!!!! ok..... not quite.... but getting there... :)

i think the lovely weather means that i should rant on people that i don't like............ i have nothing yet written for the paper, which means i should start off with perhaps writing that BEFORE i rant to my heart's content. i'mma rant for my newsstory...... please just let me use my creative license.... i know it's expired, but i have to use it.


don't worry... i'll have some good stuff to rant on. :D



at least i'll try. :O

sad day.... :'(

darth vader is dead, palpatine is dead, the empire is dead.
luke and leia and han solo and artoo and threepio and chewie and even lando and the millennium falcon live.
for some reason, i keep thinking that land and the millennium falcon blew up in the movie. pretty sure that i'm imagining things, but not too sure. 
that's right all, i finished return of the jedi. and now i'm sad.
i thought for a little bit about rereading p&p, but after looking at it, i decided that since i hated the book so much the first time i read it, there is no way i'm going to read it again. :D a wise decision. now onto other brighter books. hopefully i get to read some more sci-fi.
