What I Have Been Reading...
Here is a review that someone wrote on Amazon:
I am a huge fan of Juliet Marillier's Sevenwaters trilogy and was so excited to hear that she was delving into a more light-hearted, young-adult style with her latest novel. This is one of those rare books that captures you instantly and keeps you reading late into the night just so you can find out how it ends.
Wildwood Dancing is a whimsical twist on the story of the twelve dancing princesses. Juliet Mariller has chisled away at seven of the sisters and left us with a faerie tale about five young sisters who, on the night of the full moon, venture to the wildwood forest, a place of faeries and other creatures, where they can spend these nights dancing and being merry.
The heroine of the story is Jena, the second eldest of the sisters and the one who seems to be the most in charge. Jena's best friend is her pet frog Gogu, who she can communicate with.
The story has many themes and issues that are all very adult in context. The story starts out with Jena and her sisters being left alone as there father travels far away to do business. The girls are left to care for the castle and this is something they are fine with...until there conniving cousin Cezar comes into the mix. Cezar is one of the BEST villians I have loathed in a long, long time. He wants power, and when the girls get news that there father is ill and may not return, Cezar moves himself into the castle and decides he is in charge. The elements of sexism and women not having rights is strong and I was very irritated at the way the girls were treated by Cezar just because they are female.
There is plenty of magic and romance in this novel and it is beautifully written and elegantly paced. I relished every last page of this book!
If you are looking for a somewhat historical, magical, light-hearted, romantic tale, then you should definetly pick this book!

Totaly random but...
OK guys, I need yalls opinion. I was trying to get up into the goose neck of my trailer, when I almost fell to my death. I'm not kidding. I almost cracked my head open on the bar that was les than an inch from my face. But at the moment my boots were really muddy, and I accidentaly got mud on the carpet that lines the wall that is under the goosneck. My mothe then comes in and yells at me for getting mud on the wall. Is there something wrong with that, or am I just crazy.

I'm here in Florida...
So I'm in Florida (This isn't really the most "vaca" kinda trip, but you know.) So I've gotten a little bit of a tan, since I have time to. Everyone else is busy... but anyway. I've been wandering around aimlessly, and have actually bought some stuff... I got an adorable belt w/ a buckle, and some really cute peace sign earings. My life here consists of beach, watching adults talk, being on the phone, and wandering around aimlessly. So I'll go for now, but call me if yall want. I'll proly be able to talk.

Friggin Migraine... And Fabulous Flares
I have a HUGE migraine right now. It sucks. I just laid in my bed for two hours doing nothing, because i couldnt go to sleep, which would have been nice. I'm grounded from my celphone, so im really upset about that. Argh... but anyway. Nothing majorly new has happened in my life, well nothing that is worthy of putting up here. I am happy cuz i bought a fabulous pair of jeans yesterday. (Along with a fabulous top and fabulous gladiators...) But they are acid wash flares that are practically white, and my butt looks AMAZING in them. Can't wait to wear them Monday!!!!! Hehehe...
PS: BTW, Fabulous Flares are just as important for a girl to have as Fabulous Forearms are important for a guy. They are both nessecities to lok good in this world...

Rents are fighting again...
They fight about the most random stuff. At least they aren't throwing things... but its so annoying to listen to it as back round music 24/7. Now my mother is picking at him about his cheese grating style. She says that the thick grater is not the one to use. It's the thinner holed grater that is the better one. Oh! And now they are arguing about how many blueberries to buy at once. See what I mean. I think I should very obviously listen to my music very loudly to make a point. Haha. thats briliant... here we go!!!! Papa Roach will cover up thier noise... ahhhh sweet relief...

Ice cream and feelin sick
I'm sitting here eating ice cream (surprise surprise!!!). It's caramel praline crunch w/ chocolate syrup, out of the carton. Absolutely fabulous. I've been feeling really sick all day, like light headed and dizzy. I slept for four hours when I meant to take a thirty minute nap. It was ridiculous. But anyway, I go back to school tomorrow, (argh) but I'll be with my besties so I guess it's better. Cya for now!
Up to Early...
Went to bed at one, woke up at seven. I'm just the peppiest thing in the world. NOT. Argh. I am now currently eating my extremely nutritional breakfast of two chocolate fudge pop-tarts. Mmmm...
Up to late...
I am up way to late and am very bored. Just finished watching Lost in Austen, the movie. Very good, but I'm not so sure i liked the casting for the main character. The movie was really long, and British, and I haven't heard an American's voice for over 3 hours, so all of my thoughts have a thick British accent. It's REALLY creeping me out...
