Eragon!

Welcome,

This is Thursday's Official Post. I know my posts have been kind of crazy lately so I just wanted you all to know that this is today's post. No questions asked.  I also wanted to inform you all that this is not a review seeing how I haven't finished this book yet. Technically, I'm not even halfway through it yet. I know it's pathetic, I'm a slow reader alright.

Eragon By Christopher Paolini

One Boy...One Dragon...A world of adventure.

 Eragon 
By Christopher Paolini 

When Eragon finds a polished blue stone in the forest, he thinks it is the lucky discovery of a poor farm boy: perhaps it will buy his family meat for the winter. But when the stone brings a dragon hatchling, Eragon soon realizes he has stumbled upon a legacy nearly as old as the Empire itself.

Overnight his simple life is shattered, and he is thrust into a perilous new world of destiny, magic, and power. With only an ancient sword and the advice of an old storyteller for guidance, Eragon and the fledgling dragon must navigate the dangerous terrian and dark enemies of the Empier ruled by a king whose evil knows no bounds.

Can Eragon take up the mantle of a legendary Dragon Riders? The fate of the Empire may rest in his hands.

A long, long time ago, I decided I was going to read this book. Unfortunately for me, I just couldn't handle the book and had to put it down. Many moons have passed since I have set foot into this well put together world. I was actually volunteering at the library when I saw Eragon on a shelf in the Young Adult section and decided it was time to try again. So far I found that the book is very enjoyable. The characters are very strong and their emotions are easily felt. I have a natural love for adventure and fantasy so when I saw the beautiful sapphire blue dragon on the front, I was like wow.

Once I've finished this book, I've got a whole bunch that I have to read before they are Due back at the Library. A lot of them are on my Must Read List Of 2011. However, I plan to read every book I pick up. I also have a lot of plans to buy more books in the years to come. So saying that, I might do my first review on this book. I've never done a review but I'm willing to give it a shot.

I've also come to realize that I know why I hate borrowing books from the Library. I think of all the other people who have touched these books. What if they were sick? What if they didn't wash their hands properly like they should? Where did they keep this book? Did they read it? Did they do unheard things to this book? I have issues with borrowing books, yet somehow I still manage to do it. I bury my worries and continue to borrow these books until I realize that the list of the books I want to read is going no where. I want to own these books. Then the only person touching them would be myself. I hate it when you let someone borrow a book and they return it far away from its original perfect condition. My little sister is in fault for this act. I let her borrow my Twilight book and she didn't take very good care of it. The cover was ruined thanks to her. Well, I guess that's what I get for letting my sister borrow my books with or without my permission. She has a nasty habit of being guilty of both.

Well with all that being said. This is the end of today's blog post. Tomorrow I have a special surprise for all my readers. Mainly if you know what I post on Friday's then it won't be much of a surprise but if for some lucky chance that you don't well then. I'll just zip my lips and you'll all have to wait and see. I'm so excited.

Love Britt

A New Chapter In My Life...!!!

Hey Everyone, So I started a new Job. Well technically I've been there for a few weeks but I haven't been posting anything on my blog. It feels like it's been an eternity. And I guess I should start from the beginning. So I was at my new job, maybe a couple days after I'd originally started working there. I was bagging for a cashier who I didn't know that well. Our customers started comparing us. They were saying we looked alike and that we could be related. We just looked at each other. I told our customers that I don't have an older brother, just a little sister and we didn't even look alike. The next day, he asked me what our customers were talking about. I smiled and told him that they thought we were related. Then other cashiers agreed and thought we could be brother and sister. Haha. I thought it was great. After that day, I didn't want to bag for any one else. He made working ten times better than I ever could have imagined. And we'd tal...

A Ruff Patch in the Pumpkin Patch...!!!

Hey Readers, So last night I had a class at the local community college. I was already late due to a nice conversation I had with my best friend over Skype. I really thought I'd get there on time. When I got there, I was rushing to get to the class but I got merely five steps over the bridge when I saw two people I usually talk to on the way out of class. They told me that our class was canceled. I wasted my gas to get there. It pissed me off. Not to mention that my boyfriend and I had a ruff day yesterday but everything is better now. We just had to talk about it. I was so scared I thought I was gonna lose him. Then last night he told me he was filling out papers for the air force and the navy. I started to freak out because I thought he was signing up for them. I just, we've been together for seven months and I'm not ready for him to up and leave me here while he's travelling the world. 

13 is for Treize!

Salam, Good morning everyone. I think today is a really great day. I woke up way off schedule but I managed to get everything I wanted to get done this morning. I don't have very much time to complete this post so I got to type faster. I  am a busy little bee. I've been filling out applications everyday. Last night I was attempting to fill out an application way too late at night and decided it would be better to do them today instead. I feel like such a slacker. I'm not one though. I've been trying very hard to get a job, filling out five applications a day except yesterday because of poor judgment and planning. I'm normally pretty good with planning and organization. So I don't know what happened yesterday. I have been racing to get things done. I have my school work (home schooling), plus my daily chore chart(which I need to fill out), and my reading list which I already know won't be finished by the end of this year. Now, I'm focusing on a job ...
