Thursday Evenings

My silly daddy says I need to do something "productive" because I've spent all afternoon on the computer and watching TV. So i figured, a good old blogpost could do... Oh, and by the way... how do you delete a blog? (not this one, mind you!!!)

News news news... I'm super digging the Matched Trilogy right now! After reading the first book, I was like "Oh, crud. This is gonna be just like The Hunger Games. Are you kidding me???" But then I went and read Crossed, and I was like "YES!!! It's NOT just like The Hunger Games!!" Not to hate on The Hunger Games, of course, but I didn't like them as much as the rest of the world seemed to, you know? So I wasn't excited for another love triangle where the new guy totally took over and he wasn't my favorite... But even though Cassia seems so dedicated... Well, I shouldn't be going and giving away spoilers, now should I? Read them, guys!!! Can't wait for Reached!! Anyway.

Anybody read Mark of Athena?? Good stuff... Luke Lyman still has my book, even though he's been done for over a week (silly silly 12-year-old!), but, hey, I can live without it :) . So, how'd you guys like it? I think I read it too fast to fully catch the impact of that cliffhanger. I didn't really understand quite what had happened until the third re-read of that last bit (not the whole book, Luke wanted it too much!), and then after I closed it and everything, I realized "Hey. Wait a sec. WHAT?!?!?!?!?!" and then the shock set in. But you have to read it to find out!

Okay, guys. Favorite songs? Music thoughts in general? Here's some fun... Both Taylor Swift and Carly Rae Jepsen both have new CDs coming out soon!! Yay!! RED by Taylor Swift, featuring the songs "Red," "Begin Again," "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," and "I Knew You Were Trouble." Kiss by Carly Rae Jepsen, featuring "Good Time," "This Kiss," and my all-time fave (except not really)... "Call Me Maybe!" Good stuff guys... Right now I'm really liking the song "Mean Girls" by Rachel Crow. It's pretty good! I heard it for the first time today... I also heard "Crazy 4 U" by R5... That's good too. I like "I'd Lie" by Taylor Swift and "Sail" by Awolnation, and "Take A Walk" by Passion Pit... And then there's my (REAL) all-time fave... "Strangely Beautiful" by Shealeigh! I hope you all had a great Thursday evening... and a good day today, too!
