I'm a student, my money wouldn't be enough D: Bye ~ I had a physics re-test today. I think I did good on the first 10 questions. And spoiled the last 15 questions. God save me ;(
...one in the Sookie Stackhouse series (or whatever it's currently being called) which the series True Blood is based on. I read this series at the beginning of last year and kinda wanted to fall in love with it all over again since I'm really digging True Blood at the mo. Needless to say, I quite like these books and have already started the 2nd. Yay! My hands smell like pumpkin. Fun. Later!
Well, I can't be sure of how many books I read this year except for one I recall reading this summer. According to my old journal I read ONE book in January. How sad is that? So, today I read my THIRD book of the year. I brought home 3 Elizabeth George Speare books today and started right in on "Calico Captive". It was a pretty good book. The main character was a little annoying simply because...
...done as I wanted, but a lot of planning things out and editing took place. Accomplishments: Finished "Walker's Bridge". Finally. I started that story well over a year ago. Also, not too many books read this month, but all of them were fabulous: Neal Stephenson's Anathem, Lauren Slater's nonfiction book about psychological experiments Opening Skinner's Box, and John Shors' Beneath a Marble...
I really love the story of Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. I like it better than The Da Vinci Code . Maybe because Da Vinci Code is too mainstream. And now its a movie!! *source

Collected Poems, 1947-1980 finally arrived, so I can read Howl. :) 'who passed through universities with radiant cool eyes hallucinating Arkansas and Blake-light tragedy among the scholars of war.'
I wish I had something exciting to say but all I did was nap and read. Read a lot of news, and actually two chapters of a book that I checked out from the public library yesterday (American Gods by Neil...Kevin Smith film. I think I've watched Clerks II about twenty times in the past month. I think I am being a little too ADD right now for blogging. So I am going to shut this down and get back to CSI.
...don't remember the cornfield at all. Except in the trailer, something is also burning in it. Odd. THEY ARE TOTALLY ALMOST HOLDING HANDS!! SQUEEEE! Must curb desire to read Half Blood Prince again!! I still need to finish Lamb: The Gospel According to Christ's Chilldhood Friend Biff and all the books Lacey let me borrow. Also, I'm wearing my smexy red dress to work tomorrow!! Woot!
