So I absolutely adore winter break. It's so nice not having to worry about essays or tests or projects. I can just sit and relax, read some new books, sleep in late because I stayed up. I know that unless I do eventually become an author, this sort of leisure will disappear when I leave school and I have to say, I really will miss it. I had my ( Read more... )

I feel so bad about neglecting my Dreamwidth account (although I've neglected my LJ as well). I think when I write constantly in my journal (the bound one with paper) I tend to neglect my blogging sites ( Read more... )

So this year, instead of just making resolutions for ourselves, my family decided to make resolutions for each other as well as ourselves. As a result I now have four resolutions, which, if kept for the next six months, result in a trip to Disney World in December. Here's what they are, along with my comments.
1. Try one new hairstyle a week.(So ( Read more... )

I finally caved and got a Facebook. My mom already had one and though she has this, she's more active on Facebook that she is here. It's actually kind of fun. A little overwhelming maybe, but basically fun.I finally got to start editing my Nanowrimo story again. I'm nearing the end, but now I'm dealing with the stuff I hadn't altered yet. The first ( Read more... )

I got my computer working well again! I'm so happy to have it back, because I don't like using the family computer and risking Meghan asking if I'm doing anything important and if she can use it. I also got a new battery so I have a lot more time before it collapses when I take it off of life support. I have reload everything though, because Dad ( Read more... )

So where I live, we hardly ever get snow at all. Then even if we do, it's usually in January or February. Even if it snows before Christmas, it never sticks. This year is the first time in my memory that there has been snow on Christmas. And not just a little snow, but we still had scads leftover from the past week of snowfalls. So there was easily ( Read more... )

So as I've mentioned before, we got a beagle puppy this summer. She's about eight months old now, and she likes to destroy stuff. This has earned her the nicknames of Crap Weasel and VelociCraptor. Because of this fact we have to lock her in her crate when we leave. A little while ago she figured out how to open the latch, so we've now been putting ( Read more... )

So now the snow has been here for six days and it looks like it's going to be sticking around. Another storm system is supposed to move in tonight and we'll have even more snow tomorrow. Yay. Gladly, it let up enough yesterday that the highways and airport were reopened. This meant that my grandparents, who were flying back from Vegas last Saturday ( Read more... )

First, I want to mention that I have seen the new pictures on IMDB for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. I really cannot wait for this movie to come out. It is rather depressing about the lack of media we have so far of the movie. I mean, Twilight doesn't come out until after Harry Potter, and the have a ton of media up already. I did notice ( Read more... )

I know it is technically the 5th right now, but I wanted to wish everyone a happy 4th. So here it is:

Happy Fourth ofJuly!!!

I will post more about my day later.
Stay smart people
