Must Read Book of the Week!

03/17 - This is Last Thursday's Post. I'm  not going to do a short story for Last Friday. I didn't get a chance to finish it and I have to work on it ASAP.

Shiver
By: Maggie Stiefvater
And the I opened my eyes and it was just Grace and me - nothing anywhere but Grace and me - she pressing her lips together as though she were keeping m kiss inside her; and me holding this moment that was as fragile as a bird in my hands. 

Well I was planning on putting a picture of this book for all my fellow bloggers to see but my picture doesn't want to work right so this will have to do. This book I picked up at the Library a few weeks back because I thought it sounded interesting. So I started to read it and was like wow, this is so different from all the vampire/werewolves books I've read so far. Okay this is the first werewolf boo I have read other than the Twilight series. Edward could of been so much hotter but if I had to choose between Jacob or Edward in the movie, I would have picked Jacob. He's hot. Anyway, that's not the point. The point is that the author, Maggie Stiefvater took a completely different approach to this is werewolf thing. I mean it's so different from all the other tales, it's original. It's awesome because it's not like all the others.

The story revolves around Seth and Grace. Grace is the girl who is always outside, sitting on a swing reading a book, and ignoring her family's issues. Seth is the wolf in the winter watching Grace from the safety of the woods and the boy in the summer who wants nothing more than for her to notice him. The story is about finding romance, coming of age, accepting difference when the odds are against you, and a mystery of the wolves of Mercy Falls.Like the main character, Grace, I have a odd fascination with wolves. I think they are beautiful majestic creatures.

I would recommend this book to all of my friends. It's a really good read stating the fact that I'm only half way through the book but it's good nonetheless. Next time your at the library or the bookstore, take a gander and pick it up. I think you'll really like it.

Happy Reading!
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 ...
