Writing on Wednesday's!

Hey, I think I said I was thinking of not doing Writing on Wednesday's anymore. I just haven't had the passion or maybe imagination to write or whatever it is that get's a person in the mood to write. I normally like doing other things more now than just writing and it would be nice to have something else that could be fun. Plus, I'm trying to get out of the house more. I like being able to do things, it's just one of the thrills. Maybe I'll plan a trip to the beach. I mean why not. Well first I want to go to the mall and then I want to stop at Bell Tower because I've never walked around Bell Tower.  So yeah, I think that might be a pretty awesome day. But of course, these trips will be spread out because it's no fun if there in the same week. Love Britt This is Wednesday, May 25th, 2011s post. I've been behind on my posts.

This Year's Book List!

Eyes Like Stars By: Lisa Mantchev ALL HER WORLD'S A STAGE. "There are stars in her eyes," said Bertie's Mother with a shiver. "She'll have magic enough because of those cursed things." Verena took Bertie's Mother by the chin, twisting her face to study her closely." Your stars are still there. Faint, but there." "She will want a life greater than this. I did, too, a long time ago," said Bertie's Mother. "But that life...you know as well as I that it's mot all roses and curtain calls and champagne on Opening Night. It's ugliness and fifth and greed. The bright lights mask the sorrow, but the sorrow is still there. I don't wish that for her." The Mistress of Revels sat back, her expression solemn. "Will you try to keep her from it, goodwife? Will you tie her to the laundry line with your apron strings? Hobble her at the kness, crush her soul, and break her spirit to keep her safe?" Bertie...

Monday's Nano Dare!

Hey, I don't have a Dare for today. I've been pretty busy with other life issues right now. I'm not sure what to do with this one person in my life and it's kind of like, blah. But other than that, I'm excited about the new Scooby Doo episode on tomorrow. I love Scooby Doo. Life is not really stressful since I know I want to go to college and that I think I'm going to live on campus. Well it's more like I know that if I have the option to live on campus then I might as well take it. So yeah, it all really depends on what scholarships, grants, and other financial aid that I can get to help me. I'm really hoping that I won't have to get a Student Loan. But the chances of me having to get one are very high. Love Britt This is Mondays, May 23, 2011s post.

Fitness on Sunday's!

Hey, So I've got a new workout plan for June. I can't wait to start it. I also have to buy three different sized dumb bells, 3 Ib, 5 Ib, and an 8 Ib. I also think this workout will get every part of my body that I've been looking to tone. Plus, It's a whole bunch of workouts strung together to make up a fun week of different workouts on each day. I'm excited and I can't wait until it happens. So yeah, I'll let you know what it's like after a week. Love Britt <3

Unknown on Saturday's!

Hey Everyone, So today, I'm not really sure what to talk about today. I finally am officially over what my friend lied to me about. It was a small lie. He was trying his best to protect me. He already knows what it did to me. I told him how it affected me and he understood. So now, are friendship is on rough waters. I like talking to him though so it's nice to know we are still talking. I haven't given up on him yet. He's a good person and he normally doesn't lie unless he thinks it is  for the best. I know, I know. Most of you are like, why are you covering for him. He lied to you. He's my best guy friend so I have to have a little faith in him. Even if his choices bring hurt to the people closest to him. I know he didn't mean to hurt me. Well that's all for today. Love Britt <3 P.S. This is yesterday's post. Saturday, May 21st, 2011

Friday's Short Stories!

Hey Everyone, So today, my friend did the unexplainable. He told me something that I had to promise I could not speak of  to anyone. Then later that same day, he told me that he had lied to me earlier and that what he had told me before was not true. It took me most of the day to get over it. I was so mad at him. Really, it just kind of put me in shock and I shrank into a really down depressed mood. Plus, not to mention the walk I had to go on to forget what he had told me. So yeah, I really wasn't a fan of that. But I got over it before I went to bed because I realized I couldn't stay mad at him, no matter how hard I truly tried to be. So yeah, that's all I have to say today. Love Britt <3 P.S. This is Last Friday's Post. May 20th, 2011

Thursday's Gulf Coast Adventure!

Hey Everyone, Well today was my first ever bus transfer. I took the bus all the way from my house to Gulf Coast Town Center. If I could drive, it would of only taken me about twenty-five to thirty minutes to get there. But since driving really isn't in the picture for me right now, it took me about three hours to get to Gulf Coast. That's a total of six hours on the bus today. Isn't that kind of crazy? The funny thing is that it was worth it. I got to hang out with a friend for the whole day. We walked around Gulf Coast. Later we saw Fast Five in theaters and just enjoyed each others company. I love car movies so it was an awesome choice. Hehe. So that's all that happened today. Love Britt <3 P.S. This is Last Thursday's Post. May 19th, 2011

Writing on Wednesday's!

Hey Everyone, See now Evil, Hear no Evil, Write no Evil. There's so much going on right now, it's almost hard to keep up with. I'm so excited because tomorrow I'm doing my first bus transfer. I plan on going to Gulf Coast. It's such a nice shopping plaza. I've never really been to another like it. I kind of like walking outside to get to different stores. There's just something about that type of outdoors experience, you know.  I love the outdoors. I also might see a movie tomorrow. Did I mention I saw Thor two Friday's ago? It was freaking wicked. Hehe. Well I'm all stoked for tomorrow. I'll let you all in when I get home.  Love Britt <3

This Year's Book List!

Generation Dead!     "Pheebes," Margi said, "you're my best friend and I love you.    You know that. But something is up." "Right, we've established that. So what, pray tell, is up?" "Let me ask you: have you ever seen a living impaired kid draw on his notebook?" Phoebe sighed. Leave it to Margi to bring the melodrama. "I don't think so, no."   "Do they ever contribute to the Oakvale Reviwe?" "No." "Or take art or music classes?" "No." "Pick up digial photography or gardening on a kooky whim? Or basically do anything creative at all?" "No, not to my vast knowledge." "Not even decorate their lockers?" "Margi! Get to the point!" She did, and drove it home. "Tommy Williams has a poem hanging up in his locker,"she said, "and it sure looks like it was written in your handwriting." I remember when I fist heard about this...

Monday's Nano Dare!

Dare:Write my next Chapter in a different Genre. Try your hand at Comedy, Fantasy, Or Sci-Fi. I'm not sure if this is a different style or genre but I thought it might of worked for what I wanted to accomplish. Here it is. Willow twirled in the mirror. Watching her emerald dress swish about her petite frame. The mirror showed the body of a girl who was unusual for her time. She ran a finger through one of her tight knit curls, admiring her fox tail colored hair. The blues of her irises pierced the reflection of the one in the mirror. "Miss. Crosswick, if you don't stop studying yourself in front of that mirror, you may loose yourself to it's inner demons." snapped the morning professor. The woman turned from Will to take a seat by the window. She pulled out some paper and a quill and placed them on the side table next to her. "Yes Professor, we wouldn't want that." Willow stood up straight, taking the seat opposite the woman. The woman sm...

Fitness on Sunday's!

New Exercise Plan! I want to get a new Workout that focuses on my arms or something. Maybe I'll add it to my current workout. Every two days sounds good. Then it wouldn't be that huge of a deal. Plus, I love my current workout but there is this side lunge thing I'd like to change because it'd gets on my nerves, if you know what I mean. Haha. So that's all for Sunday's post.  Love Britt <3

Unknown on Saturday's!

Hey, Sleepless Matter! I'm kind of bored. There's not much to do than to sit around and be bored. Lately, I haven't been getting normal sleep. It really sucks but there's not much I can do about it. I just wish there was more I could do than to listen to Numa, the cat purr me back into the dream world while the fan runs me back into reality. Wow, that sounds kind of deep Hehe. Well that's all for today. Love Britt <3

Friday's Short Stories!

Hey, No Short Story today. Sorry everyone, I've been busy planning things all week. Plus, I do a lot of reading now and less writing. I can't seem to bring in an equal balance of both. So it all depends. Hmm, lets see I might have something next week but as of right now, I don't. Love Britt <3

The Must Read Book of the Week!

Hey, Welcome to Thursday's post. It's kind of late in the whole post it process. Then again I think I'm really far behind. Ugh, I need to catch up. I hate being so uninspired right now. So these are the books on my list of new books to read : Currently Reading: Raised by Wolves and Prophecy of the Sisters. 1. Prophecy of the Sisters 2. Generation Dead 3. Graceling 4. Eyes like Stars So that's my list. I am almost finished with Raised by Wolves and I don't think I am even close to being halfway through Prophecy of the Sisters. But I"m working on them. I really enjoy Raised by Wolves. It's a really awesome read. Prophecy of the Sisters is okay but I'm unsure of how I feel towards this book. The whole story sort of started out slow for me. I am really excited to be reading so much. I love books. To bad Borders had to close down here. Blah. Borders was my favorite store. I could spend hours in that store. Well that's all for today. Love ...

Writing on Wednesday's!

Hey, I feel like I need to really take a break from Wednesday's post. There's too much I want to do and not enough free time to do it. Normally my free time is a little better advised. But lately I 've been kind of distracted with video games and such. They are just so easy to get lost in. One reason I can't really do Wednesday's post is I haven't been writing lately. I don't have the will to really write. I also don't want to use my old computer for writing. I plan on buying a new one in four months but it might be more like five. So all my energy has been going towards worrying about that and the cost. You know, all that fun stuff.  There's also the fact that my back starts to hurt from sitting in this chair to long. Plus, I think it would be a lot more fun to write on a laptop than this computer. I feel like I am stuck here all the time, sitting at this computer but it's no use. Hehe, you know what's awesome, the fact that I am even tr...

This Year's Book List!

Prophecy of the Sisters! This is Tuesdays 05/10/2011 I just picked this book up from the Library. I started reading it two days ago and I'm not sure if I like it yet or not. It seems like a very interesting story. I wonder how it will end.  I don't have to many books to read for this month. I won't add any for next month because I plan to read some of the books that I already have on my shelf. It never hurts to read what you own first right. I know, I know. Everyone is probably wondering why I'm doing this post when I already did one on this book. Well I kind of forgot about the other one and I decided I was going to tell you all that I'm only 54 pages in.  Love Britt <3

Monday's Nano Dare!

Hey, Sorry everyone. I think I'm going to give up on the Nano Dare of the week. I just don't do them anymore. Maybe I'll make them every third Monday of the month or something. It all really depends. So yeah, I'm kind of bored. Don't have much to do. I'm kind of glad work was a slower type of day. I don't like busy days. They really suck. Well, I'm out of words for today. I'm getting really tired. Love Britt <3

Fitness on Sunday's!

I decided that nothing really special happened on Sunday. I mean nothing fitness wise.. I mean it was Mother's Day so I wished my mom a Happy Mother's Day and I talked to her for a little bit on the phone. She seemed really happy that I called her and sent her a card. Yup. It was a pretty good day. Love Britt <3 Happy Mother's Day Mom!

Friday's Short Stories!

Prom! This is Friday's Post. It really isn't a short story. But it could be if I wanted it to be. Anyway so back to the subject at hand.  Prom was on a boat. Or maybe I guess you could call it a Ferry. We had our pictures taken with the water behind us. Then a Professional took our pictures on the dock. It was fun just talking and laughing with people. Once we finally got on the boat, we got ushered to the top deck to take more group photos. Did you know that the stairs for the boat were not made for heels? Haha. That was a fun experience. Yeah, that was kind of impossible, squeezing almost fifty people into the smallest area on the top deck. After everyone had their pictures taken, we chatted and laughed some more. I wasn't too much of a chatter at first because I was around people I didn't really know all that well. After about an hour of being on the top deck they finally let us go to the bottom deck where the party was. We prayed, ate our dinner and sat around cha...

The Must Read Book List...Or Not!

Pre - Prom Spree!  So this is Thursday's post. I am two days behind but I do however have good reason to be. I mean when your a girl who is trying to make everything run smoothly the day before Prom then you personally should make an effort to take it to the top. I normally am not one to over do something so much that it makes it feel to me like it's fake. I love living in the moment. So for prom, Amanda helped me figure out what to do with my hair (which technically we didn't think about until the day of Prom) and I painted my nails with a fade - out sparkly gold color. They kind of looked like a French Manicure but not as fancy as one. I was so lucky with my nails because I only had to do them like once. They looked so awesome. Did I mention I love painting my nails?  I also didn't have to spend money on the dress because Amanda had a few that she let me try on. The red one looked best on me and we fixed the straps so I wouldn't fall out if I bent down.  So my...

Writing on Wednesday's!

Hey, I don't think Writing would be my Career! So much has been going on and I don't have time to do what I enjoy most. I love writing but lately it seems like it's more of a burden. How did I do it when I was home in PA? I use to write it all down, my ideas for my book while I was in school. Still getting good grades mind you. I was very good at keeping my grades up and still being successful in school while working relentlessly on my book. I was good in school. I was motivated. It helped me a lot. Now my life is kind of like. Oh, I could do that but I really should be doing something different. It's not a bad thing, I'm just at war with myself about my career choice. It has nothing to do with my book.  Well I've got a book to finish. Motivation is really lacking today.  Love Britt <3

This Year's Book List!

Prophecy of the Sisters By: Michelle Zink Without the keys, something terrible will happen.  Something that cannot be undone.   And with them, I might bring an end to the riddle  of the Prophecy and my strange part in it, If Alice and I are on conflicting sides of the Prophecy, the Keys would be dangerous in her hands. Which means I have to find them. And I have to do it before my sister. I heard about this book and I read the back or well the inside cover and I don't know I thought it sounded interesting. The two sisters at odds with each other over a Prophecy that have taken out sisters before them by turning them against each other. It kind of reminds me of my sister.  I guess I won't know if it's good until I start reading it. I'm excited.  I can't wait to get started, I'm currently finishing up Heist Society, just started Raised by Wolves, and Fruits Basket Volume 15. So my list is ever growing and expanding, kind of like my personality or well my nai...

Monday's Nano Dare!

I've got nothing. I know it's hard to believe but I've got nothing. I mean I wanted to do a really good post but I just never take the time to do it. I totally could if I didn't think other things were more important. I love my life. I've got some news though. I got my hair cut. I love my new hair, I feel so different. Love Britt <3

Fitness on Sunday's!

Here is my Workout Goal... Every day at 6 pm, I take a bike ride through my neighborhood. When I get back I grab a glass of water and do depending on the day(which is set up every other day) my core exercises or my No - Excuses Workout. After I do this, I do 3 reps of 25 sit ups each every night before bed and I also do 15 girl push ups because I'm not strong enough to do the man ones(I know it sucks, right.) and I also like to do squats while watching TV if I can. It all really depends on my mood and time of day. I didn't do my sit ups last night, oops. Love Britt <3
