Books

Hi all. I'm so sorry that I haven't wrote a blog. I have been busy with school, life, and such. Since I haven't posted anything, I thought that I would blog about the books that I have been reading since the beginning of this year.

The first book that I read this year was Dear John by Nicholas Sparks. I decided to read it because the movie was coming out soon. After I finished it, I decided that I wanted to read the other books by Nicholas Sparks so I purchased his other books at Borders and Target. It got me on a roll after that. After I finished one book, I would go on to the next. The first book that I have ever read by Nicholas Sparks was A Walk to Remember which I read a few years back. I just finished reading The Choice today which was the eighth book that I read by Nicholas Sparks. I have seven more to go. I have set myself a goal to finish all the books by the end of the summer.

I have also recently bought the book The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger. I wanted a change from having read eight books by Nicholas Sparks and the movie looked interesting. I have always been a sucker for romance movies and books. After having read eight books already, I think I'm going to take a little break from reading.

Signing off now.

My own room

Even though I have had my own bedroom for almost nine years, it hasn't always felt quite like my own or somewhere where I wanted to spend a few hours in when I'm not sleeping in it. After almost nine years, now it feels more like my own and somewhere where I want to spend a few hours in during the day whether doing schoolwork or just surfing the web on my laptop.

Last Thursday, my mom and I went to Big Lots and bought one of those swivel chairs for my desk, a 3-shelf bookcase at Target, and a desk lamp at Office Depot. I always have a desk in my room but I couldn't use it because I had all of my college schoolwork stored under it in these red crates and had stuff kept all over the top of the desk. My room is the smallest bedroom in the house so I had to use every available space to store my things. So, since I have a bookcase now, I moved some of the stuff that was on my desk to the bookcase to make room on my desk so that I could finally have room to work on it now and a comfortable chair to sit on. I moved the red crates that has all my college work to another place in my room. My room looks so much nicer now and I love it. My room finally feels right now. I'm happy and excited about it. :)

On another topic, I went to Borders today to buy a few books. I purchased four Nicholas Sparks books: Nights in Rodanthe, The Wedding, True Believer, and Message in a Bottle. I have always loved Nicholas Sparks' books and the movies but ever since Dear John has come out with a movie earlier this year and the movie for The Last Song is coming out next Wednesday, I want to read every book that he has ever written so far that I haven't read yet. I have read A Walk to Remember, Dear John, and The Last Song and am currently reading The Notebook. My goal is to read all four books that I purchased today during the summer and hopefully be able to purchase his other books and read them all by the end of the year. Hopefully, I'll be able to do it.

Ranting about writing papers

Hi. I know that I said that I was going to post another post talking more about myself but I have been busy with school and stuff. I have a six page paper due this coming Thursday and I have only done one page so far. No matter how long I have been writing papers I'm not good at it and I always procrastinate which isn't a good habit. I really hate writing papers (who doesn't?). I have never really had any confidence when it came to writing papers. It's not my forte.

I had a paper that was due over a week ago for my Psychology class and when I saw what grade I got after my professor gave it back to us, I was surprised but very happy with what I got. I got an A! =D

Anyways, that's enough for today. I hope you all have a nice day! :)
