Book Rec, End of Month Quotes, and a meme
I realize that my book rec. and quotes are both late. Thursday I stayed up working on Peer Letters for English and on Friday I wasn't home for more than ten minutes. So both have been pushed to today. They will be found under the cuts. Enjoy.
This week's book is Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer. Come one, you knew it was going to happen eventually. Anyway as most of you know, this book is about a girl who falls in love with a vampire. This vampire lives with six others that make up his family and they only drink animal blood. They also sparkle in the sun. Anyway, the books chronicle their relationship and how it grows. It have quite a bit of humor and a lot of romance. It was a really interesting book and while the writing may not be the most spectacular thing ever written, it's a really enjoyable series of books. They are also fairly addicting. Join the obsession.

I was given this by juliebean To participate, leave me a comment and I'll pick five of your userpics. Then you post with reasons why you like those userpics
.
I like this icon because it's just so true. Half the words in the English language are taken from other languages. The icon entertains me and I use it when I complain about language or make another language-related post
.
This icon conveys my anger sometimes when things don't go well. Just using actually alleviates some of my stress and frustration. Plus one of these days, I might have to stage an accidental death. Purely for academic reasons, of course
.
I love this icon because it is so true. I am extremely klutzy and unbalanced and my parents often call me Bella. I have to marry someone with at least some balance because otherwise my kids will be screwed
.
I like this icon because I do quote stuff out of context. I will be walking and someone will say something that randomly relates to a quote I know. Often it's a song lyric or an Eddie Izzard quote
.
This icon is awesome because sometime you just can't fight your crazies. I know that my mind is warped and I just try to accept that. Plus sometimes the voices have some really good ideas.
I started writing my book today. Yay for insanity. I have about 480 words right now, and hopefully I'll have a lot more by the end of the day. We were going to do a write in at Shari's last night with the other people in our area, but after we got there, we decided to just go home. It's much easier to write from home in comfy clothes and wrapped in a blanket.
Stay sharp people
Bella
