Shiver

  • Nov. 2nd, 2009 at 1:29 PM

So last week, I got soooooooo far behind on schoolwork. Why you ask?
Because of a book by Maggie Stiefvater--Shiver.



This book was absolutely beautiful. I was hooked from page one and did not want to let it go!
The story was just magical. The love Grace and Sam have for each other cannot be fully expressed by words-which is okay, that's how they are with each other. Something about this book made me treat it delicately, as if the story would disappear if I was too harsh with the handling. I even read it slower than I usually do. Usually, if a book is getting super exciting towards the end I start reading faster, but I would not let myself do that with this one. I wanted to savor each and every moment!
I absolutely cannot wait to read the next two books in this series! EVIL CLIFFHANGER! >.<

 

Reading Rainbow is a Living Hell

So as a kid I watched Reading Rainbow. Hell I can still sing the theme song. But it has been cancelled. LaVar Burton, who after 25+ years was STILL hosting it, "made an editorial about his feelings" on the ax.

This is some good stuff, but you don't have to take my word for it.

"" added just in case it is actually needed O.o...

I would like to state for the record:

I HATE PARENTHETICAL CITATIONS!


Therefore I LOVE Chicago Style!

Yeah, so I didn't make this one, but I think it should be shown and everyone should try it! Outback makes a kickass Mai Tai!


Literary Tattoos

From [info]halseanderson (awesome awesome author btw-most especially Speak and Wintergirls) I was introduced to a captivating website. Or maybe I find it captivating because I am addicted to books and work with them, etc. Anyway http://www.contrariwise.org all about literary tattoos. From this site, I have determined that I have to read Slaughterhouse Five. And dammit, now I am really wanting another tattoo sooooooooo much...hm maybe for Christmas I'll get something done!

Please tell me oh people of the interwebs-how do you forward a picture (from your email) to be posted onto a website (like Tagged). Yes, the patron told me it can be done cause he's done it before, but just doesn't remember how to do it. From the email, not saving the picture and uploading it straight to the website like you would do in LJ, MySpace, Photobucket, Flickr, etc.

Music Suggestions

  • Jun. 24th, 2009 at 1:59 PM

Give me some suggestions for new music to listen to! It can be your favorite band, song, style, whatever-just name something! Or multiple somethings, it doesn't really matter.

(Let it be said here and now that Ginny has no favorite genre of music. She listens to just about anything. Her tastes change many many times. She can go from one spectrum to the other in the blink of an eye.)

So anyway-help a girl out! <3

Using the word "please" would be nice to hear after busting your ass on something for someone else instead of having a piece of paper thrust at you with the command "MAKE THIS SIGN IN COLOR"

I detest Wikipedia. If I ever use Wikipedia for a school assignment I never cite it as a source. I go to the References/Sources at the bottom of the entry and then go to the referenced source. This is further reason of needing to do that

Oprah, Chicken, and a lot of Bad Words

  • May. 6th, 2009 at 2:26 PM

I would like to extend a great big FUCK YOU to Oprah.

Free chicken coupon you say? Two pieces at KFC?

People are coming out of the woodworks to print a fucking coupon for two pieces of chicken. And guess what? You need a coupon printer installed. WE DON'T HAVE IT AND DON'T HAVE THE ADMIN CODE TO INSTALL IT.

And by way of Oprah, fuck you to all the piece of shit patrons who are bitching at us because they cannot get their precious chicken.

Holy shit the world is ending.

Found on a gravestone in 1st century bce:

"So long as you live, be radiant, and do not grieve at all. Life's span is short and time exacts the final reckoning."

Case Closed

This makes me happy for John Walsh's family.  Twenty-seven years later and it is done. And I hate for it to sound crass, but maybe the reason that his son died was to be the catalyst for all the activism that John Walsh did as a result. Had his son not been snatched and killed America's Most Wanted would never been created, Code Adam would never been instituted, missing children wouldn't have been found as much as they have been, etc.
The cause sucks, but the effect is extraordinary.
